YESYESYES I have bought every single lipstick in this collection because I love it soooo much! This is truly comparable to high end lipsticks. It doesn't feather despite the hot humid weather I'm in, is really opaque, full colour, doesn't settle into fine lines, creamy and easy to apply and basically the formula is SO GOOD. I would pay that tiny pittance of a price for this, anytime.
The packaging is gorgeous for the price! Looks so classy with the NARS-like sleek black packaging!
I'm starting to collect all their sheer lipsticks, XXXL lipglosses and nude collection lipsticks too! So good, I love this brand (((:

I have 01 Coral Calling. It's a medium pink coral with enough pigment to flatter my nc25 skin tone. It applies smoothly and covers well enough. It's slightly glossy, which I like as it's non-drying. However, it's not longlasting. Probably good for up to three hours. But it wears off nicely and is so easy to reapply that the lack of longevity doesn't bother me. Minimal scent.
Costs hardly anything, less than a sandwich.

Are you kidding me? I'll never be buying lipstick from another brand again.
I picked up Wear Berries! which is a purpleberry colour.
This stuff does not feather, fade, or crack lips. It's actually super moisturizing and really makes my eyes pop.
Just look at the reviews of Essence's products. They are ALL top rated. This brand really gives the others a run for their money...
Anyone know if they test on animals? That would be a dealbreaker...
Anyways, at $2.99 per lippie, I most certainly will be buying many more. You just can't go wrong with Essence Makeup.

edit- if you are a True/Warm autumn in the seasonal analysis, On the Catwalk is the EXACT match for shades 3.8 and 3.9 on the 'colour fan'--so it is an ideal cheap pick for a True Autumn!
H rarely compliments my other lipsticks but whenever i wear one of the essence ones he says they look great... He has no way of knowing that I am wearing smething inexpensive, just that it looks good that particular day. And i agree with the person who says she prefers them to her Chanels!
This is gorgeous! I think the only downside is it can lead to bleeding if you overapply for some reason (you don't need to! it's well-pigmented), and don't blot before a 2nd layer, or use lipliner. If you use a good lipliner, it is 5 stars. If you blot and reapply carefully, it is 5 stars. If you don't do that, it'll probably smear a little, and it would be 3 stars. The colour range is small, but good. The red is beautiful! On the Catwalk is the most perfect berry that lifts my complexion and brightens without being just a statement that takes over the rest of the face. There's a place for those, but these colours are throw-on-and-go types, that will work for any circumstance. I would expect colours like these from Dior or NARS.
These lipsticks last/stain. Really nicely.
They are not matte (more like satin or balm-like), and the texture is like a good lipbalm-slightly gel-like in texture, not exactly creamy.
Also worth mentioning: the packaging is much better than the previous (pink tube) essence lippies: black, colours are shown on the packaging, and the lid doesn't randomly pop off. On the Catwalk is too good. The shade is a perfectly balanced, flattering colour, not 'draining' and slightly tinged with grey/orange/pastel like some low-end lipstick ranges. It's like a high end lipstick!

How is this possible? $2.99 lipstick outperforms $30 lipsticks? Don't judge until you try them. I only have tried the Nude Love shade. It's creamy, beautiful, and makes me want more colors. The case is better than expected and discreet - simple black. I don't know what else to say - but try it. You will not be disappointed:) In fact, the surprise will be that you will probably reach for it more often than your other lippies!

No words.
There are no words for how good these lipsticks are. I am a journalist, so I am supposed to have words. Nope.
For 2-freaking-99 you get lipsticks that are incredibly creamy and comfortable in attractive shades. I like cream finishes because they make my lips look nice and full.
I would also say I definitely get above-average wear time from them. Natural Beauty is my everyday work shade as a deep neutral pink (similar in texture and color to MAC's Syrup). I also have something-Catwalk (can't remember the name) and it's a beautiful red. With these, I don't have to worry about the product straying from my lips or looking completely different in 4-5 hours. I can just live my life and not have lipstick on the back of my mind because nobody got time for that.
I'll be honest. I hate the scent. It's cheap and a fake-sweet smell which is annoying. But I am extremely sensitive to scents and I can ignore it because it dissipates and I can't get over how good these feel on my lips.
I am rarely blown away by products. I actually generally am pretty critical about products I use. These are one of the few (only?) to me that just are both efficient and satisfying.

Essence Longlasting Lipstick comes in 10 highly pigmented shades, and best of all it is only AU$4.10! So cheap, and such a quality product.
While it does claim to be long-lasting, I would say it remains on the lips for about 4 hours until it loses intensity. Very reasonable for the price. The 10 colour varieties are very wearable shades. My favourites are '01 Coral Calling', '04 On the Catwalk', '06 Barley There!' and '07 Natural Beauty'. There is definitely something to suit all skin colours and style tastes.
The packaging is wonderful, a simple black tube with a line of colour that corresponds to the lipstick shade inside. Very classical packaging that does not look cheap. With this product being such an affordable price, you can easily build up a nice little collection of them without breaking the bank one bit. (PS. Look for Essence lip liner pencils too at only $1.70!)
Would I buy Essence Longlasting Lipsticks again? YES! I am so impressed with this product. Extremely affordable without skipping on quality. Check them out, you won't be disappointed.

When it comes to the design and the development of a website, one must always keep in mind not only the usability behind it but how much information it is giving to search engines. The idea is that when your target audience is searching for you on the internet, as a website owner you should be sure that you are giving out the correct information.
The first question which one might ask is:
what is a meta description?
A meta description is a short paragraph describing the content of a particular page which can be found in the HTML of the webpage. When one does a search in any search engine, this particular description is then found under the search results. This description will also appear when someone shares an article or page from your website on a social media platform.
Example - Meta description on Booking & Co. home page
We are going to assume that your next question is going to be - but how can I add a meta description in my website? If you are using a Content Management System (CMS) to control you website, you should have access to this particular area. For those of our clients who use the AWC5, for every page and news article they can control this section from the SEO Options area at the bottom of each page.
Now getting down to business - we will be giving you 6 tips on how to improve on your meta description:
Remember that having a goods website is not only about the design and its content. Even from a simple search result, you need to be able to hep your target audience to instill a sense of excitement in order for them to click on that link.

Ed's favorite part of the vacation was the Rooftop Rodeo in Estes Park. He did NOT want to go when we first mentioned it. He "offered" to stay home with Joel, etc to get out of going, but we all talked him into it. He LOVED it - He says it's his favorite part! I wanted to go all in with our rodeo adventure, so I spent naptime visiting thrifts stores in town to pull together some cowboy hats and boots for us. I was able to find hats for everyone, and boots for myself and Sophia. The drive from Fort Collins up into Estes Park was A-Mazing! There were all of these cabins and campgrounds along the way too that I kept saying I wanted to stay at. Someday maybe. Here are picks from the drive to Estes Park:

Dementia and Sight Loss Make for a Debilitating Combination: Not Enough Attention Has Been Afforded to Supporting People with Dementia and Vision Problems
Turpin, Pam, New Statesman (1996)
Betty, 91, has dementia. Prone to falling, she became afraid to go outside. She would also frequently drop her tablets, which left her feeling highly frustrated. Betty had poor eye sight but wore an old pair of bi-fold spectacles, leaving the staff at the residential home where she lived to comment that they didn't fully understand why she was having visual difficulties.
It took an eye examination to highlight that Betty's sight problems were the result of wearing the wrong prescription glasses. This was quickly recitified, and Betty was given a new pair, as well as a bespoke sight loss passport which highlighted her vision problems to staff. Meanwhile, staff also received training in dementia and sight loss. Overall, Betty was happier and more content and staff felt more confident in supporting her.
Sight loss in people with dementia is not uncommon. Indeed, there are at least 1000,000 people in the UK currently living with both conditions. Although severe memory loss is the main presentations, vision can also be affected. This can stem from visual difficulties due to dementia pathology, age-related sight problems or a mixture of both.
Dementia affects the way people perceive and process visual information in different ways. For example, Alzheimer's Disease, the most common form of dementia, impacts on contrast sensitivity, visual attention, object and facial recognition, colour and depth perception, glare, motion perception and visual misinterpretation. Posterior Cortical Atrophy the "visual variant" of Alzheimer's Disease accounts for up to is per cent of all cases. In the early stages of the condition, individuals seek help because of difficulties in reading, driving, locating or recognising objects or navigating their environment. Symptoms can be extremely disabling.
Vision problems can also affect people with vascular dementia (particularly if related to stroke), dementia related to Parkinson's Disease, and Lewy body dementia. For example, people may experience "visual mistakes" such as misperceptions, misidentifications, illusions and hallucinations. …

What is Security?
Security testing is set of actions to protect a web application against unpredicted phishing attacks that may cause loss of data, data theft, financial loss, denial of service, ransomware, ruined reputation, vandalism, revenue loss, Damaged Intellectual Property. These kind of unforeseen actions can be either intentional or unintentional.
What is Security Testing?
Security testing is a type of software testing with which a web/mobile applications are verified to protect the data and maintain its intended functionality. It involves an active analysis of the application for any weakness, technical flaws, or vulnerabilities against phishing and malicious attacks.
Security testing practices such as risk assessments, vulnerability scanning, security assessment and penetration testing can be used to identify threats to data security and prevent these security breaches
Let's take a look at the few key statistics to understand the importance of security testing.
Don't be distracted by the adventure of the week. Invest your time and money now to defend against the threats your application is apt to confront.
Types of information Security Attacks
Hackers have number of varieties to attack vulnerable web/mobile applications, but here are the 4 most common things that they try to do first,
- Carry out SQL injection attacks – To gain access to the database, spoof a user's identity, and destroy or alter data in the database.
- Use Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks – To have browsers execute their malicious payloads to deface your website to promote their brand or their hacktivist ideals.
- Distributed Denial of Service Attacks (DDoS) – To Make the site temporarily unavailable.
- Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks – Hijack trusted user sessions to make unwanted purchases on behalf of other users.
Security hackers get motivated for?
- Destroying the database and causing great loss to the company
- Stealing user data on the fly using a man-in-the-middle attack
- Downloading sensitive user information and selling it on the black market
- Finally, proving that they are a great hacker to their community
2017's biggest security hacks, leaks, and data breaches — So far…..
- Freedom Hosting gets popped, pulling down one-fifth of the dark websites
- Millions of Verizon customer records exposed in Security Lapse. Unprotected Amazon S3 storage server.
- Data Leak – Bell Canada, Canada's largest teleco, was hacked in May 2017. The company declined to pay the hacker to stop the release of the 1.9 million customer records were stolen.
- Education platform Edmodo Breach exposes 77 million accounts for sale on the dark web
- Mac video encoder HandBrake was infected with Remote Access Trojan Those infected were at risk from thieves stealing login credentials from OS X Keychain.
- Strain of ransomware called WannaCry spread around the world, walloping hundreds of thousands of targets, including public utilities and large corporations.
- Wikileaks CIA Vault 7 published a data trove containing 8,761 documents allegedly stolen from the CIA
- Cloudbleed attach on the internet infrastructure company Cloudflare announced that a bug in its platform caused random leakage of potentially sensitive customer data
Types of Security Validation
- Authentication: The source of the mobile/web application and its data should be genuine.
- Authorization: Only specific users should get the access to authorized functions of the application.
- Confidentiality: User data/information is secure from theft.
- Integrity: The application and its data is not altered in course of time during any transaction or transmission.
- Non-repudiation: Guarantee that sender and receiver of information cannot deny having sent or received the data.
Advantages for Security Testing
- Security Testing helps to Reveal Vulnerabilities and finds existing weaknesses in the software system or application configurations and network infrastructure. This helps to avoid data loss.
- Protect Data privacy and cyber defense capabilities. Many of the attacks should be automatically detected, alerts should be generated and dedicated people should act according to the company's internal procedures.
- Ensures business continuity with all the operation up and running all the time without any interruption eliminating financial loss
- Reduction in TCO – a robust software with higher fidelity will help reduce the TCO of the product
- Data breach, or any other form of loss of personal and confidential information, is a serious matter that could land a company in a lot of trouble. It could even require an organization to pay a huge sum of money as a settlement. An in-depth security testing procedure will help fore see these attacks well in advance and take preventive measure.
Security Testing Approach
A right security testing approach will eliminate web/mobile application vulnerabilities. When it comes to application security testing, the two most commonly used approaches are:
Static application security testing (SAST), a set of security testing framework is designed to analyze application source code, byte code, and binaries from the "inside out" in a non-running state.
Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST), takes place while the application is running and penetration happens "from the outside in" to identify potential vulnerabilities, including those outside the code and in third-party interfaces
Issues / Challenges related to Security Testing of web applications
- One of the main challenges of security testing of web/mobile application is the development of automated tools for testing the security of web applications
- Surge in the usage of Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) also inflicts a bigger challenge for security testing of web application.
- RIAs being more users friendly and responsive due to the usage of AJAX technologies. Another challenge could be the usage of unintended invalid inputs, which may result in security attacks.
- Working with mutant may lead to faulty injections which could result in a security vulnerability as vulnerabilities do not take semantics into consideration. This may even pose a challenge to the security testing of any such web application.
- Insecure cryptographic storage may even pose a challenge to the web application security testing.
- Also the web development languages which we use may lack in enforcing the security policy which may even violate the integrity and confidentiality of the web application. This may even pose a security threat.
- The integrity of the data which could be another challenge for a security tester.
Security Testing Best Practices
A recent Magic Quadrant survey for Application Security Testing by Gartner states that Security Testing is growing faster than any other software testing market. Security and risk management leaders must integrate security testing into their application security programs to ensure that the application has intensified with the number of risks and attacks in the online world. This is the reason why security testing has taken a precedence and the idea of continuous testing, automated security testing and delivery is also being endorsed. As a result, DevSecOps has evolved to balance the Security Testing needs by incorporating the intrinsic strengths of DevOps within the Security Testing process. This methodology offers a security testing framework to add security checks within the development and deployment pipelines and makes everyone responsible for ensuring security.
Indium's security testing framework iAVA, helps organizations to identify potential vulnerabilities based on OWASP standards. Indium's Anti-Vulnerability Assessment Framework (iAVA) tool helps in performing security test execution, manual test penetration, automated application scanning, code review and analysis, log defects, initiate remediation of defects and complete retesting. For the past 10 years, our framework has helped our client to secure their data from phishing attacks.
The concepts are still evolving, but the ground rules are the same, which remain very close to Test Automation and DevOps models. Incorporating the Security Testing aspect is important. Continuous Testing and Delivery forms the core of the DevSecOps model and makes the testing and development process more concerted.
Best practices for automating security testing are similar to the best ways for implementing any test automation projects. Just that Security testing have to be integrated flawlessly in the process.
Below are few simple steps to be followed to bring in Security Testing Best Practices in exercise
1. Identification of Critical Vulnerabilities
For identifying critical vulnerabilities, it is recommended to the break the application into parts or units and check them for vulnerabilities. This helps in identifying failure paths and loopholes in every facet of the application's vulnerabilities. Many viruses and Trojan in cyber space tend to dig into the basic and most unnoticed security vulnerabilities. It might be poor authentication, futile passwords, or inadequate security policies. There are vulnerability scanners for identifying hidden network and vulnerabilities at the host. By breaking the application and running automated security tests for every function, the critical vulnerabilities can be successfully identified. This is the most fundamental piece, as this will enable the testing teams to take up further actions and deliver on a consistent basis.
2. Integration of Test Automation Best Practices
Testing Automation is an enabler for the entire security testing approach with DevOps. DevOps can be successful only if test automation is implemented successfully. The concept of Continuous Testing and Delivery works with the fundamental that test automation is effectively implemented throughout the process. The concept of DevSecOps boosts the idea of automating Security testing through the test cycle.
The best way is to combine the best practices of Test Automation and DevOps approach with Security Testing objectives. While the Continuous Testing practice is in wave, Test Automation helps to find the defects simultaneously and the software release is happening on a continuous base. Therefore, during the deployment stage, tests are in process to validate the security of the application.
3. Selection of Right Security Testing Tool
Correspondingly, with a potent combination of automation, security testing, and DevOps, there is a serious need to pick the right security testing tool for implementation.
Any Security Testing Tool can be selected, but it has to coordinate well with the objectives of the security testing and the project requirements. Preferably, it is suggested to choose a tool that the development, operations, and security teams are familiar with, and can integrate effectively into the test cycle for tangible results.
Top Security Testing Tools
Web security testing tools are useful in proactively detecting application vulnerabilities and safeguarding websites against attacks. There are lot of cost effective and open source security testing tools available in the market to carry out basic security testing procedure.
Here are some popular open source security testing tools popular among security testers
Some of the commercial security testing tools are
4. Automating Security Tests on a Regular Route
Automated security testing is similar to automation of functional or performance tests. While automating the security tests, it can be segmented into functional Security testing such as authentication and password generation, specific non-functional testing against the weaknesses, security scanning of the application and infrastructure, and application logic for security testing.
The main idea to segment the objectives of security testing and automate the security tests should specify the success criteria. Getting the required results and resolving the vulnerabilities with required automation is very crucial. Hence, automated security testing on a regular intervals should be carried out as long as the business-critical objectives are met.
5. Testing Vulnerability Outbreaks
The objective of automating security tests is to get the application ready for any possible security outbreak or mass attack. While defining the objectives and strategy of security testing, it is important to use the right tools/framework for the security outburst. The current scenario is scary for any web/mobile application and the vulnerability can emerge from the application or from external one. Developing test automation frameworks for security testing to test any such vulnerability attack can be a good practice.
Security testing of web applications is a critical quality assurance step for every business to safeguard their applications and prevent huge business loss. By testing the application for potential security vulnerabilities and defects, potential external attacks may be pre-empted. But, to perform end to end security testing, a tester should understand the security terms and definitions.
A general software tester can perform security testing to only certain extent. But, a security testing expert with the thorough knowledge in OWASP, OSSTMM standards.
Prerequisites to set up a dedicated security testing team
To set up a dedicated security testing team, the testers should have
- Understanding in the terms of the business application such as XSS, XSRF, SQL injection and path traversal is also critical.
- Proficiency in Application Security Concepts, familiar with OWASP Top 10, SANS top 25 and other security best practices.
- Knowledge in Security frameworks such as ISO 27001/27002, NIST, HIPPA, SOX
- Basic understanding of the following protocols/technologies HTTP, SOAP/REST, SSL/TLS
- Vulnerability analysis and reverse engineering
- Metasploit framework, Forensics tools and Cryptography principle
- We recommend below accreditations like CPT/CEPT, GPEN and – especially – OSCP.
- CEH: Certified Ethical Hacker
- CPT: Certified Penetration Tester
- CEPT: Certified Expert Penetration Tester
- GPEN: GIAC Certified Penetration Tester
- OSCP: Offensive Security Certified Professional
- CISSP: Certified Information Systems Security Professional
- GCIH: GIAC Certified Incident Handler
- GCFE: GIAC Certified Forensic Examiner
- GCFA: GIAC Certified Forensic Analyst
- CCFE: Certified Computer Forensics Examiner
- CREA: Certified Reverse Engineering Analyst
Yet, it is impractical for all companies to have an in-house center of excellence for security testing. A realistic and cost-effective measure for businesses would be to take the help of an experienced outsourced security testing service provider.

Maio - A view from our expert author
Fishing boats on the beach at Porto Inglês, Maio © Martin Haigh
The 'forgotten island' – a quiet location for relaxation and contemplation.
Maio was, and some would say still is, the forgotten island. Its quiet dunes and secret beaches have been overshadowed by the more boisterous Sal and beguiling Boavista. It has been waiting to be thrust into the tourist mainstream, and fleetingly it seemed that its time had come. But plans for a massive increase in accommodation have, at least for now, been thwarted and development projects stand gathering dust. How the transport and other infrastructure were ever intended to keep pace is unclear. For many, this is a blessing, as it leaves undisturbed this island backwater. With uncertainty over Maio's future as a mass-market destination, restaurants and tourism-related businesses are susceptible to frequent changes of ownership and closure. Visitor footfall is light. Those who live on Maio or visit it frequently justifiably claim that the island is overlooked in other ways. Flight times are often changed, cargo boats fail to materialise and as a consequence, the shops sometimes run short of supplies. But visitors may revel in the authentic feel that Maio possesses, the genuineness of the island and the seemingly gentle and welcome indifference of the inhabitants to grabbing hold of your hard-earned holiday spending money.

Dealer Bust 21 (DB21) is an optional Blackjack side bet that allows players to win odds when the dealer busts. The odds based payouts are determined by the dealer's up-card. The higher the value of the dealer's up-card (Ace being the highest), the higher the payout for the DB21 bet. Players can win both their blackjack bet and DB21 bet when the dealer busts. Players may lose their blackjack bet by busting their hand, but still win their DB21 bet if the dealer busts. If all players' hands bust, the dealer must still play out his hand according to house rules if any DB21 bets have been made. If the dealer does not bust, all DB21 bets lose.
Winning DB21 bets are paid odds based off the dealer's up-card. The payouts are divided into four categories: the bust cards (2-6), the intermediate cards (7-9), the face cards (10-K) and an Ace. When a dealer busts on a bust card, the players will receive the lowest odds payout. When the dealer busts with an Ace, the players will receive the highest odds payout.

Massage Therapy
At Pure Health we understand the importance of Massage Therapy in conjunction with Chiropractic. Chiropractic works to resolve structural problems, while massage therapy works to resolve soft tissue problems. Our team of practitioners work together to collaborate in finding the proper combination of chiropractic adjustments and massage therapy, with the goal of getting you back to a feeling of health and well-being as quickly as possible.
Both chiropractic and massage therapy are holistic modalities because they share a common goal of treating the whole body, helping you to achieve this state of well-being without drugs or surgery. Both focus on trying to resolve the underlying cause of your pain or discomfort rather than treating isolated symptoms. When they are used in combination, a synergy occurs that is often far more effective than either approach on its own,
Massage Therapy involves the practice of conditioning a person's muscles and other soft tissue with the intent of improving a person's well-being or health. Whether your need is to have a moment of relaxation, reduce muscle tension or attain relief from chronic pain, a therapeutic massage can enhance your overall sense of emotional and physical well-being.

'Drawing with sepia from the ink sac of the contemporary cuttlefish, sepia officinalis, was already common in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, while the novelty of fossil sepia meant that it was particularly used in drawing fossils. In both cases the ink sacs were dried and ground to a fine powder before being mixed with water and shellac.'
The drawing above was made by Elizabeth Philpot, and shows one of the plesiosaurs discovered by Mary Anning. Her use of fossil sepia ink is recorded in a letter she wrote in 1833 (transcribed below), which includes some interesting details about Mary Anning.
Where Elizabeth Philpot used fossil sepia to draw fossils, Annabel Ralphs has used particular materials to trace the decaying wooden pilings surrounding West Bay:
- Blue Lias, collected from Charmouth; the blue-grey colour is caused by its iron content.
- Silver Point, suggested by drawing with a ring found on a cliff walk at Tyneham.
- Oak Gall Ink which, similar to silver point, darkens over time through oxidization.
[Many thanks to Annabel for providing the text and pictures, and allowing us to use them.]

So called "radical Islam" is the religion introduced to the world by Mohammad. The so called "extremists" are simply following the teachings of their founder and the Koran.

Should Your Company Stop Buying Health Insurance?
January 27, 2011 1 Comment
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is making some employers take a look at self-funding their medical plans since some of the costs to comply for fully insured plans add 2-4% to the premium on top of the double-digit increases they would be getting anyway. Self-insurance can help reduce overall costs if your employees are relatively healthy and your medical loss ratios has consistently been low (typically less than 80%). Stop-loss insurers of late have been willing to consider smaller companies (some will insure under 100 employees). For employers who choose to self-insure, they must evaluate which network to use and who will process the claims (a third party administrator (TPA) or an insurer who will 'rent a network'). Additionally, you will need to evaluate who will provide stop-loss reinsurance protection.
For those of you unfamiliar with self-funding or stop-loss insurance concepts, here's how it works. The TPA will process claims as they come in. The employer pays the claims through the TPA (to comply with HIPAA). Typically, you are able to save money just on the difference in administration costs between the TPA and your insurance company. For added protection, you should purchase stop-loss insurance. Stop-loss insurance does what it says. It stops the loss (of dollars) when there is a big claim. This is especially important if cash flow can be an issue for your company. There are two types of stop-loss coverage and I recommend having both. The first is Specific Stop-Loss, sometime referred to as "Spec". If a single large claim comes in, say a heart bypass surgery for $250,000, the spec coverage will limit the employer's portion of the claim. The employer can choose the level that they will be able to fund ($50k, $100k, etc.) and the stop-loss insurer will pick up the rest. Obviously, the higher level the employer chooses to be responsible for, the lower the cost of the insurance. The second type of stop-loss coverage is Aggregate Stop-Loss, or "Agg". This protects the employer from paying out claims for the plan year once a certain total claims level is reached. This is usually expressed as a certain percentage over your expected claims volume, also referred to as a "corridor".
Unfortunately, too many employers (and their advisors) view stop-loss protection simply as a commodity and that all policies are the same. Buying based on the lowest price without getting all the of the policy details can be costly. I will share with you some cases that illustrate my point: A company I've been speaking with selected a stop-loss program that paid claims up to three months after the plan year, this is referred to as a 12/15 contract, which means that the insurance will cover all claims incurred in a twelve month period AND that are received in the 15 months from the start date. When a large hospital claim occurred in late December, a carrier audit process was triggered which resulted in the claim of $280,000 not being paid until early April, four months after the plan year-end and one month after the stop-loss contract provision. The company incurred the entire liability on that claim because although it was incurred during the plan year, it was not paid until after the 15 month period of the contract had expired. Had the company chosen a longer term contract (with a slightly higher premium) they would have been able to limit their payout to the "spec" limit, which in their case was $50,000.
Here's another. A self-funded company was preparing for the renewal process, having recently learned of a large, ongoing $1 million a year claimant. The carrier providing the stop-loss on the program decided to exercise their right to "laser" (Dr. Evil finger quotes) the claimant, meaning that it would not provide stop-loss coverage for that employee. Given that there was a large ongoing claim, no other carrier would touch this company. Giving the carriers a lasering clause will reduce the premium, but it is a dangerous proposition when a large claim actually hits.
Here's a quick list of questions to ask when considering self-funding:
- What specific stop-loss level would you be comfortable with? Do you have the cash flow to pay a big claim?
- What aggregate stop-loss level are you comfortable with? Is your expected claims projection realistic?
- How long should incurred and paid periods be? Choosing a short paid period could be costly.
- Lasering – some policies state no lasers on renewal, but not all. Are you willing to pay for that protection?
- Does the policy cover prescription drugs? Not all do.
- How does the policy tie into your health plan's summary plan description?

We admire much that is modern, but we oppose modernism; we are in favour of progress, but we oppose progressivism; we use science, but we oppose scientism. In short, we are lovers of both idea and method, and, because we love them, we spurn utterly the cults that have arisen around them. It is from this perspective - basically young, tolerably literate, always Christian - that this blog shall unfold.

This blog is devoted to providing information and resources for survivors and therapists treating survivors, especially those with programming from sophisticated abusers including cult and government mind control. My healing journey is included as part of this sharing.
For First Time Visitors
If you are a first time visitor to this blog, I invite you to start from the beginning, especially if you are unfamiliar with the potential emotional impact of long-term child abuse.
Trigger caution to unhealed survivors!

Understanding the Incomprehensible
Children of incest or long-term sexual abuse grow up to be wounded adults with complicated emotional issues. Unfortunately, some symptoms are misinterpreted or often dismissed as "crazy", only serving to maintain a tormented victim status. We, as a society, have the power to change this dynamic. Each of us can make a difference.

Sex vs. Love
For the past week have been processing further integration only to learn one part of me is still walled off. She's probably always been walled off. Initially the messages came through Libby's sets. The woman behind glass in several images represents Libby's sexual repulsion.
Yesterday and this morning it kept coming to me that the woman behind the glass was Joy. At first..."Joy of Sex". But she represents joy/bliss at a level I've not known before. Internal aha. "Sex" in a loving relationship (at least for me and am guessing most) comes from happiness, intimacy, bliss. It comes from a happy place in healthy relationships. Whatever "happy" was in the world of abuse we know was not the true meaning of happy.
I'd thought I did experience happiness and moments of joy on a daily basis. But I also have a "wall" that keeps me from calling people I love dearly. Had thought that was my phone phobia but that particular kind of phone call is denying me a joy I truly want. I did the above set this morning before I left for afternoon physical therapy. All of what I just wrote came together during my drive time. I want to allow Joy in. I may have to wait until my psychotherapy session next week to help Libby also embrace Joy.

If you are living in Dallas, then you must know that the apartments have the small space in comparison to the ordinary houses. Placing the carpets will make an ease for you to sit on the floor. You can place some large size cushions over the carpet and sit on it. Before purchasing a carpet, buy a carpet that is thick and has a dark color because thick carpets absorb less dust and dirt into it. Along with this, stains are not visible on the carpets that have dark colors…Read More

Further to our previous updates in relation to this issue, the Court of Appeal have now considered Unison's challenge to the implementation of Employment Tribunal fees. In short, the Court of Appeal has decided that Unison's challenge should not succeed and the fees regime should stand.
The Judges commented again on the lack of evidence presented by Unison in support of their case and, particularly, the impact that fees were having on individual litigants. This has been a recurring theme at each stage of their legal challenge. Whilst the Judges noted that there had been a dramatic decrease in the claims being brought at the Employment Tribunal, they concluded that of itself, this was circumstantial and did not demonstrate conclusively that the fees regime was hindering effective access to justice. The Court was also satisfied that the higher fees for some types of cases (such as discrimination cases) were not indirectly discriminatory because they were objectively justifiable. Although they accepted that more women than men might need to pay the higher fees on the basis that they were more likely to bring discrimination complaints, the level of the fees reflected the increased demands that these sorts claims placed on the Tribunal's resources and as such, they were justified.
However, this is unlikely to be the last that we have heard on this issue and there remain a number of interesting developments on the horizon.
Firstly, Unison is taking leave to appeal to the Supreme Court to try and take this issue even further. Secondly, a formal review of the impact of the Employment Tribunal fees in England and Wales is currently being performed by the Ministry of Justice and it is expected to present its findings later in the year. Finally, there has been an interesting development in Scotland; the Scottish Government has announced in its Programme for Government 2015-16, entitled "A Stronger Scotland", that it intends to abolish employment tribunal fees in the Employment Tribunal in Scotland, although it is unclear when these proposals will be implemented.
This is an area that all employers would be well advised to watch with interest.

Persistence of episomal HIV-1 infection intermediates in patients on highly active anti-retroviral therapy

Treatment of HIV-1-infected individuals with a combination of anti-retroviral agents results in sustained suppression of HIV-1 replication, as evidenced by a reduction in plasma viral RNA to levels below the limit of detection of available assays. However, even in patients whose plasma viral RNA levels have been suppressed to below detectable levels for up to 30 months, replication-competent virus can routinely be recovered from patient peripheral blood mononuclear cells and from semen. A reservoir of latently infected cells established early in infection may be involved in the maintenance of viral persistence despite highly active anti-retroviral therapy. However, whether virus replication persists in such patients is unknown. HIV-1 cDNA episomes are labile products of virus infection and indicative of recent infection events. Using episome-specific PCR, we demonstrate here ongoing virus replication in a large percentage of infected individuals on highly active anti-retroviral therapy, despite sustained undetectable levels of plasma viral RNA. The presence of a reservoir of 'covert' virus replication in patients on highly active anti-retroviral therapy has important implications for the clinical management of HIV-1-infected individuals and for the development of virus eradication strategies.

Everyone knows that having one of those 'fun', 'creative' jobs is unlikely to make you a lot of dosh.Being an artist normally lands you straight into thetrendy-but-romantically-penniless category, in a house share in Dalston alongside other would-be actors and writers (oh, sh*t).
As being penniless is about as fun as eating tinned sardines for the rest of your life, many upcoming 'creators' tend to dabble in an 'un-fun' job on the side like pot washing or pint pulling while they make life-sized portraits out of loo roll and blue tack back at home.
Others, like artist Tim Patch, think outside the box and use their own assets to make ends meet. Tim, who also goes by the name Pricasso, uses his (you've guessed it) penis to create unique portraits, landscapes and female nudes. So how could I refuse when he put me in the hot seat at London's Sexpo hey, it's not everyday that a man offers to paint you with his penis
Tim was born in the UK and studied at the Portsmouth College of Art before migrating to Australia nearly forty years ago. Before he started putting his 'part' in art, Tim got to grips working with wood as a carpenter, you filthy animals and as a local builder, but says he never sold a picture done with a brush.
After watching Puppetry of the Penis, a show where two Aussie guys contort their penises for fun, Tim looked down at his one-legged-wonder and thought:
Could I make art with this thing?
So he dipped 'it' in a pot of homemade paint (the lime in normal paint would have eroded his skin ouch) and set to work. A friend dared him to paint at her New Years Eve party in 2005, and after that he quickly perfected the art, painting portraits in around 20 minutes.Tim covers his bits in Vaseline for protection before using his penis to draw the portraits and his buttocks bigger surface area to create the background.
He has taken his penis all over the world, featuring at international 'Sexpos' and drawn portraits of Hugh Heffner, who he says is a nasty man, world leaders such as George W. Bush and plenty of erotic stars such as porn-classic, Ron Jeremy. He provides a DVD of the whole process to relive the memories and reassured me that, yes, it does still work.
The weirdest part of his job? When clients ask him to literally put that bit extra of himself into his work and cum on the canvas once he's done of which he obliges, if the price is right.
The lure of having Tim's DNA all over my freshly-painted face was tempting, but I decided to go cum-free with my portrait. For a man who just uses his flaccid penis to create artwork, you have to admit this is pretty impressive. I've been looking at my own appendages in a new light ever since

Peapod @ 2years-2months & Jellybean at 23 months
I bought her 2 wooden jigsaw puzzles, one which is a duck made of 8 blocks and then a couple of teddy bear puzzles. These are the only ones that appealed to my adult mind as jigsaw puzzles. I realized latter, it was difficult to get her started. I spent some time in the mornings doing the puzzle & showing it to her initially. She picked up and seemed quite interested latter on. She was quite busy for a few days untill she had mastered it all. It was fun to see her sit with it, turn the pieces around, trying to fit them in and many times she would be throwing the pieces and the wooden board around in frustration. My sister bought a couple of more puzzles of various shapes from local train vendors in Mumbai. The ABCD puzzle with 26pieces used to keep her occupied for a long time. I could actually flip through a magazine while she was at it. With every day, she is getting faster and I am wondering what to get next? Since I have never done or seen kids do jigsaw puzzles so young, I was very amused and am proud of my bacha.
Books. She loves her books. Whenever we buy books for the peapod, the grandparents are wondering if we are planning to get her to graduation directly. She has around a dozen books. To add to it when P returned from his onsite, he bought more books. I hid all of them and introduce one book at a time. Reading peapod a book during her bedtime was something I looked forward to when she did not seem to show much interest or around the time she had just begun to pay heed. These days I dread the bed time for the book reading. why you ask?
When I summon her for bed, she immediately starts pulling drawers, frantically searching for her books chanting "endiye..endiye"(where..where) and would tuck a book under each arm, then 2 in her hands and hug on to 1 or 2 and dump them all on the bed. I have to read each and set them aside. I yawn, pretend to sleep, try to skip pages, but none work. Sometimes I even switch off the lights but she would still make me read and enact ALL THOSE BOOKS. She has a color book, which she loves. After the lights are off, I just keep blindly mumbling stuff to get to the end of each book as fast as I can in between yawns and tears and blurred vision. So when the color book goes up in the dark, I flip through each page and she will say "black" each time. Let me see if I can click a snap of her going to bed with all those books balanced on her little frame.
The jelly bean on the other hand is not interested in puzzles or books. She knows to place a couple of pieces here and there but would never sit still to complete a full jigsaw. She watches the peapod though while she is building them. Books, she will just stay quiet the whole time the book reading is going on but would never want to SEE the contents of the book except for a few random glances. But she surprises us by pointing out to 'Abacus' in a word book and I am left wondering, how come?. She is more interested in holding on to small, tiny-weeny things in both her hands like buttons, crayons etc and keeps checking them every 10 mins interval. She knows how many she is carrying and no body can fool her with the number or color though she can not count in numbers or name the colors. The other thing about her is, you can ask her where is the toy she was playing in the morning and she can go and point to it under the bed or behind the sofa. The peapod has no such recollection. She will just act all innocent, as if she has no clue what am I talking about.
(They are selling potatoes. They roam around shouting "potatowala..potato")
The Jellybean, when she arrived was a clinger, would cry at the drop of a hat, and was a shy child. The peapod, in her bad moods would actually hit her, scratch her and all she would do was cry and yell back. Now, she hits back and because she retaliates the peapod is more careful. So overall the hit and scream have reduced a lot. Jellybean is still not very out-going but if you have met her twice and you encourage her, she would gladly come and join you in.
(There, raiding my dressing table)
They both start dancing around even to the music blaring in the streets. They can sit beside each other play their own stuff. They will exchange toys after a while. Both can say "pleashe" and "tanku" and charm you endlessly. They even imitate the other crying and make fun of each other.

Boy, remember that luscious warm air that bathed New York and made everything 60 degrees? It was practically May already! I hope you enjoyed it because ICE-POCALYPSE OF DOOM AND CHAPPED LIPS is almost upon us. Highs in the 20s! The coldest air o the season! Some errant gust of arctic weather! Seems like a pretty good time to never leave your apartment again.
Per the arbiter of doom, Accuweather, things are about to get real, real cold starting tomorrow. Some Canadian cold air is heading south because of wind and also science. The highs will be in the 20s this week, about 19 degrees colder than the average temperatures for this time of year. And we're not talking like two days of cold and relief. This is the beginning of a week-or-so span of frigid air. You will not be able to get through this without a hat. I see you. Do not attempt to not wear a hat.
Plus on Tuesday, there may be snow thanks to a "clipper system." So if you'll excuse me I'll just be bricking myself into my apartment until June.
