Printing seam line on cosmetic tube
Have you ever considered to print a color block or graphic around cosmetic tube when make designing? Over 10 years' experience in cosmetic packaging, huaxin sees many clients like this design. The printing effects really look very nice, but it has a little defect -printing seam line and hard to avoid. Below are different printing seam lines on PE extruding tube and some improvements.
1. Print a circle of color block on PE extruding tube. There will be a 1.5 mm width overlapping joint line, see below pic. This effect looks not bad and many clients think they are fine. How do you like it?
2) Print graphic around extruding PE cosmetic tube, see below pic. In this case, the 1.5 mm overlapping part of seam line looks like dislocation. This is hard to improve. Usually we do not advice customer to design like this.
Based on above two situations, if customers don't like the overlapping or dislocation, it's a good way to choose PBL or ABL tube. The overlapping and graphic of seam line can be matched very well, see below pics; just it has a welding line.

I interviewed NOISM. But don't read it, because you're not supposed to, he told me to take it down...for political reasons I am assumming...
Wormed, Behold...The Arctopus and The Berzerker interviews to be added shortly.
Sleep Terror, Severed Savior and Dyscrasia tabs in the new tablature section, also with lots of tablature webpage links. Chatroom added as well as a new site layout thanks to Googs. Interviews with Lividity, NOISM, and Dyscrasia to be added shortly.
URL has been changed from http://www.techdmjunky.cjb.net, to http://www.doesntexist.cjb.net. A new tablature section and forum soon to be added. So far I have Dyscrasia, Atheist and Demilich tablature. I'll make sure to put up lots of hard to find tablature, just be patient.
New Psycroptic and Capharnaum interviews. These are done differently than the others, on account of the reason I tried to make them more organic by doing them on a messanger. I didn't edit them, but whatever, take what you can from them.
New interview! I finally interviewed Luke Jaeger guitarist of Sleep Terror. The reason it took so long is the man moved to California, so I had to wait. Special thanks goes out to Olly for his help. Enjoy.
It's almost fucking Christmas and I just got my first interview done. Twas with Christian Münzner, guitarist from tech-death metal band Necrophagist. I must say twas rather exciting for my first interview, and I'm hoping to do more of them soon.
I promise to get a lot of wicked brutal technical death metal shite up here as soon as I can, lots of articles, interviews, reviews and the like. Well that's all for now, STAY FUCKING BRUTAL!!!

By 2050, 80 per cent of energy in Baden-Württemberg is set to come from renewable sources. So what role do renewable energy sources play currently? Here is a graphic overview of the use and potential of renewable energy sources in Baden-Württemberg. Learn more by the infographics below or the Energy report compact 2015 as PDF download.
Electricity from Renewable Sources Today
Unlike the national average, Baden-Württemberg's green electricity is obtained primarily from solar power and hydropower (as of 2014). Wind power, on the other hand, makes up only 5 per cent of electricity generated from renewable sources. It is therefore our goal to expand wind power in particular.

I have a love hate relationship with my curls! It's as if they have a mind of their own. They are completely spiraled and gorgeous one day ("…Yeah, I meant to do that."). Then the next day, my hair is completely dry, frizzy and flat (Ch-ch-chia!). I've spent a lifetime trying to perfect the art of styling my curls. Here's what I've discovered.
- The haircut! Cutting curly hair is much different than cutting straight hair. It's important for your stylist to understand framing and layering. If not, after your hair dries, it looks like you put a lampshade on your head and walked straight out that door! Also stay away from the texturing shears!! They separate the curl causing frizz. No bueno!
- Moisture, moisture, moisture! There are tons of curly hair shampoos and conditioners out there, but try and stick to those that are sulfate free. The others have harsh acids that strip your hair of its natural oils. *Tip: Use a wide tooth comb in the shower to detangle curls and try to avoid using a brush. Yep! The brush separates the curl. FRIZZ
I am currently using Ouidad Products. The shampoo and conditioner below are the bomb dot com. I linked them to the site if you're interested.
3. Styling technique. Remember moisture? Curly hair tends to be on the drier side. So I recommend using a leave-in conditioner while your hair is still wet and raking it through with your fingers. Now it's time to apply your styling gel/mouse/cream etc. Which ever you prefer. I've tried them all. Apply product in sections using the same raking technique you did with your leave-in conditioner.
Below are the products I'm currently using.
4. The drying process. After applying the product I like to let my hair air dry while putting on make-up. It allows time for the curl to form. Do you own a diffuser? You should! This is a must! When using the diffuser flip your hair forward and scrunch dry. Flip back over and repeat the same process. Also shimmy the diffuser to the scalp of your head to create some height. Once dried and styled to your liking, you can use some hairspray to set in place. Diffusers are sold anywhere! Ulta, Target, TJMaxx, Sally's, Walgreens, etc.
Check these out! I love my CHI blow dryer and I absolutely love this hairspray my mother-in-law introduced to me!
Go on now, rock those curls! They're gorgeous darling! I hope this helps!!! If you have any questions please let me know!
Until next time! XOXO,

National team selection pattern suggests it's an administrative failure
Every time national team squad is announced there are criticism from every corner of the country, especially for not giving the opportunity to young and emerging players.
But the pattern of team selection for Asian Cup and Football Association of Maldives (FAM) silence over the matter suggests it's more of an administrative failure.
For AFC national team tournaments the confederation requests national associations to register a national team player pool of maximum 50 players and allow the national association to pick players for the tournament from this pool of players.
There is a possibility that FAM failed to register 50 players for Asian Cup and instead registered the current squad that have been selecting for each and every game. Meaning there is no chance that FAM can select any player outside this crop of players.
FAM has never picked any new player for match squad other than the players they selected for the very first game against Palestine.
If this is true by any chance, there will be only four keepers that are eligible to play for Maldives in Asian Cup qualifying; Mohamed Faisal, Abdullah Ziyazan, Shafeeu (Club Eagles) and Mohamed Imran, who retired from national team after Oman game.
Imran's claim in a daily news that FAM approached him to continue playing for national team strengthens the suggestion that it's an administrative failure from FAM that prevented skillful youngsters from getting into national team squad.
Those who do the selection can use whatever technical terms they want to justify their selection but nowhere in the world players are being selected for their national teams based on their performance in club trainings.

Every other month my model team and I get together to create something. Some months it's week long mini sessions with an elaborate set, other months it's group sessions in a beautiful setting with a theme. This month was all about spring! We rescheduled once because there was a tornado that day, (what!?) and the day we ended up shooting was so beautiful! The blooms still were not completely full, so we found one amazing pink tree and set up shop right there!
Marissa and Olivia formed a new friendship! I love that about this team. Girls from all schools come together and get to know each other.
They styling and theme for this shoot was all Kaysha's idea, and she executed it perfectly!
This teens portrait session at buhl park was incredible! I'm so glad these girls made it out and we got to shoot in this beautiful light and have a lot of laughs!
Find out more about the model team here! We would love to meet you!

Centre for Early Childhood Education and Development
Multi-disciplinary research from economics, neuroscience and education has demonstrated that quality Early Childhood Education is critical in determining a child's...Research Grants
Current Landscape
Early Childhood Education (ECE) is one of the most effective investments in development. Research shows that when children get quality ECE, they have better life outcomes in terms of health and income levels, apart from social returns such as lower crime rates and better citizenship.
However, in India, provision and quality of ECE needs substantial further investment. The major channels of provision of ECE are the government-run Integrated Childhood Development Services (ICDS), and the private sector (standalone playschools as well as kindergarten sections of private schools). Across these delivery channels, there is limited understanding of child development and substantial lacunae exist in quality of service delivery.
The Central government issued a National ECCE (Early Childhood Care and Education) Policy in 2013, comprising a curriculum framework and quality standards, among other elements. Most states have been slow in implementing the policy and as a result, there has only been sporadic progress in improving access and quality in ECCE.
CSF's Position
We believe in the importance of improving the quality of both the public and private systems of early childhood education.
A quality ECE programme must focus holistically on domains of child development, and must design its curriculum and pedagogy accordingly. We aim to find and support innovations enabling adoption of such developmentally appropriate elements in programs across delivery channels.
We are also looking to identify and develop tools to assess the development of age-appropriate skills and knowledge in children and measure the effectiveness of early childhood programmes. In addition, we will look at supporting effective models of ECE teacher training. Finally, we intend to push for greater policy focus on ECE, including tighter integration of ECE with the primary school system, a pragmatic regulatory framework for ECE providers, and more funding for research, innovation and programmes in ECE.

- I thought I told you to die!
- — Marine talking to an Alien... A.K.A. MC.
- The Chief's dead? I'm just going to...eat my gun.
- — A marine after realizing that he killed the Master Chief
- — A Marine to a Random question
Marine Corps is an "elite" fighting force tasked to win the Human-Crapenant WarYou know, for an (not so) "elite" military force, these guys are pretty dimwitted. They like to bring out one liners and curses, but unlike real Marines, they don't use real curses, just the ones you would expect to see in a PG-13 action movie. They're like "yippie-kay-eh" without the "motherfucker". It has been well known that marines suck and are worth killing on a level with flood as all they do is make your job harder when they get AIDS. Almost all marines will wait for the Chief to come until they start fighting, and it seems as though they think of Master Chief as some fully armored Jesus.
In addition, you can give them weapons, like the Rocket Launcher. However this is rarely advised, as they like just love friendly fire. Oddly enough, to perhaps counterbalance their lack of brains, they have infinite ammo. So, for whatever reason, if you give them a Rocket Launcher with one round left, they magically have one hundred thousand rounds on hand, all waiting for the real enemy: the rest of their squad, and you. How nooby is that? If you give them a weak weapon, like the pistol, however, all they do is bitch and moan about it until the end of time. The Marines just have a stupid mindset that says "bigger is better" (giggity) which is stupid.
The current theory is that all Marines are inbred, or clones of one another, as there seems to be at least two Australian Marines in one level, and four Stackers in another and the same two female Marines no matter what, even if they die. It is also known that there are only four marines but they all have different voices.
Marines may be incompetent when fight along side you. But if you kill too many of your own men 10,000 guys pop out of nowhere with SMGs and shoot the brains out of you and it hurts like a shit. I wonder why they're better at killing you than killing Covenant... and their bulging muscles are actually because of damn steroids.
It is said that 100 skilled Marines could take out 5 passed out Brutes and a pickle, with only 75 casualties. Also, many marines have been known to be completely obliterated by Hunters, such as Igido Nosa Hurru. In this case, the marines were blown to pieces and stepped on by his inter breeding man/wife Ogada Nosa Fasu, leaving the Chief to attack them himself.
Other StuffEdit
Everyone needs to eat right, even Marines. So the UNSC has given every marine an MRE. Meals Ready to Eat. Although Marines hate this shit and would rather die than be forced to eat, they almost always kill themselves first.
There are other fat ass homosexual marines that suck their own dicks for semen, feeding their stomachs. Unfortunately a pissed off Elmo always kills them first.
Since the MREs contain a sexy picture of Cortana lap dancing and some have Cortana having sex, this has given a lot of Marines moral boosts helping survive some assaults. Marines actually made a hobby of colecting these pictures, and they trade them with others. But when a marine dies, that Cortana picture is always in a marine's pocket.
It is known that an idiot otherwise known as Sergeant Johnson once gave some marines a bunch of nukes. The marines later apologized to the ghost of Keyes as they had blown her up. She/he decided to let them live on the condition they attacked the master chief all the time. This is why they loooove friendly fire.
A marine once commented that master chief looked like a naked Jason Jones (as shown in the level halo). The chief cloned the marine and killed all the copies of him. These can be seen in the level crows nest. If you see a Ghost that looks like a marine, that's probably his ghost.
It also costs $10 and 2 seconds to train 4-6 marines.
They seem to be complete piles of rhino shit and deserve nothing more than to drive themselves off a cliff. Oh, wait, they covered that already.
Nuisance Invinsible Noobz Judged as AssholesEdit
The Good
- You can beat them over and over and they never die. It helps relieve stress.
- They are experts at running in fear.
The Bad
- They are annoying.
- They are
- They suck.
- They have Autism and cannot tell whether chuck norris (master chief) is a covenant or not
- They take all the heavy weapon.
- LEFT you 4 DEAD.
- They don't know how to drive.
- They get owned and t-bagged by Grunts.
- They don't pay attention in battle and they just masturbate to Cortana's pictures.
- They would rather rape you then help you.
- They love to drive aimlessly over cliffs.
- They like to drive head on into wraiths and choppers.
- Marines have really lame comments such as "Yeah Die!!" and "Fuck you mate!"
- Marines are better with Covenant weapons. This is proven.
- They are like gods when it comes to killing you...
A Marine's skills with a gunEdit
A marine's aiming skills has basically been described above in the paragraphs. So they suck at doing their job (killing the covenant) and are LIKE A BOSS at the opposite of their job (killing you). And somehow, they brag about how horrible some guns are, but they really don't know anything about the guns in the halo universe. Notice that they useautomatic machine guns like a Battle Rifle (proper use: rata rata rata rata rata rata rata rata rata rata... and so on, but they are like rata rata rata rata, pause and get hit, rata rata pause and get hit) and yet they complain all the time. The reason they get infinite ammo has been proven. The answer is that Bungie felt sorry for the marines because they programed their AIs horribly (they fire 10,000 shots and only 2 shots hit if they're lucky, but on average, only 10 shots hit ever) so if they get limited ammo, they would die or just complain more about how less ammo they get. They also complain about the guns you can give them, and all they do is groan and nag and moan and bitch and shoot and miss EVERY TIME except for maybe once.
Friendly Fire Edit
Many gamers (noobs (unfortunely) included) state that Marines have an issue with friendly fire.
However, friendly fire from Marines does not exist.
Marines are are your friends.
(except this marine, he is your bitch )
But they are good at the Fuel Rod Gun and rarely the Needler.
They are also suicidal, as see in Halo 3 when that retarted ass Grunt sits in a corner with a pistol and forgets how to kill himself. All he does is piss and moan and bitch about how they took his lover, Micheal Jackson. He then eats his own shit and dies. What a bitch.
Quotes Edit
- — A cop crying at Dutch for killing his friend, and then shooting at himAhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh grunt is trying to rape me
- My name is Francisco Monteque Zanzibar...
- — A marine all alone, except for the 500 Elites also in the room.
- I hope you enjoy this!
- — A Marine in a room alone with a Turkey
- One marine is not worth killing, but sticking one marine is.
- — Sergeant Pete Stacker
- Whoopeee!!!!
- — Marine after smacking you with the end of a Warthog
- ...Oops?
- — Marine after misfiring a rocket launcher into a wall and blowing up Master Chief and the marines around him.
- Sorry!
- — Marine after running over the Master Chief
- — Master Chief
Effectiveness in war.Edit
Well whaddya think? These guys don't know how to pull a trigger. They're only advantage is if they have it on with The whore queen. They don't have a clue what they are doing and all they do is act really macho and then get shot in the face by a Insect whore. They suck balls when driving warthogs, and especially enjoy splattering the Chief.

too heavy to lift.
a light touch pleasant, slight annoyance.
i like to feel our presence, let him go on.
what is he drawing? i don't know.
is it permanent? don't care, let him.
got used to that shaky line
across shoulder-blade, a sharp turn
plunges, warmth gushes down my spine,
and suddenly with impeccable care
a curve along the waistline,
steady hand, precision
tracing all over my back.
make no pretense of the mischief:
this is no shameful scrawl of love.
he is a true artist
using my back as canvas.
i don't care what it is,
whether permanent. i let him, just let him.

FRANKFURT (Reuters) - The European Central Bank's exceptionally loose monetary policy remains appropriate, a large majority of academics said in a survey on Monday, countering German experts' dim view of the ECB's stance.
A council of experts that advises Chancellor Angela Merkel's government said last week that the ECB should scale back its stimulus program of bond purchases given the extent of the bloc's economic recovery.
But a broader survey of 64 European academics by the Center for Macroeconomics and the Center for Economic Policy Research showed 78 percent disagreeing or strongly disagreeing with the German view, offering a snapshot of a long-running policy divide between Berlin and much of the rest of Europe.
Hoping to boost growth and inflation, the ECB currently buys 80 billion euros worth of assets, mostly government bonds, each month and has cut interest rates deep into negative territory.
The bank is set to decide next month whether to extend the purchase program beyond its scheduled end next March.
With euro zone inflation forecast to rise to a three-and-a-half year high of 1.3 percent by March, calls are growing for the bank to take its foot off the stimulus pedal.

Arguing that low rates are destroying savings and hurting ordinary Germans, Berlin has taken an openly hostile view of ECB policy, a conflict the central bank says could threaten its independence and erode the effectiveness of its policies.
Respondents in Monday's survey, who included former Bank of England Deputy Governor Charlie Bean and former Irish central bank Deputy Governor Stefan Gerlach, also disagreed with the German view that ECB policy was masking structural reforms.
"I don't believe that it 'masks' the structural problems - they are still perfectly evident - though it certainly reduces the pressure on national governments to address them," said Bean, an architect of the BoE's own stimulus program.
"The ECB would be straying beyond its legal mandate were it to deliberately underachieve on its inflation objective in order to place more pressure on member states to undertake the necessary reforms," Bean added.

There are many different thyroid hormone replacements in the world.
There are branded replacements and generic replacements (generics are copies of the original drug). They come in tablets, capsules and liquid form. Some are lactose free and you can also get some with minimal inactive ingredients. Some are synthetic and some are made from the glands of pigs.
Some people find one particular brand or generic better for them than another, probably due to an intolerance to one of the inactive ingredients.
You may be aware of all the problems that French patients have had with the Merck brand of levothyroxine.
Merck substituted lactose for mannitol in their levothyroxine and many patients were suffering side effects from this - www.sciencemag.org/news/2017/09/france-brings-back-phased-out-drug-after-patients-rebel-against-its-replacement
The French Government finally asked Merck to change back to their previous formula which they agreed to do.
The pharmaceutical company Teva have recently made the same changes and we are hearing that some patients are suffering side effects.
We would urge any patients having side effects from this brand of levothyroxine to contact the MHRA and complete a Yellow Card (see below)
Thyroid UK has put together one document with all the information you need about many of these thyroid hormone replacements including the manufacturers' details should you need to contact them about adverse effects or supply issues.
You can access this document here: Thyroid Hormone Replacements
We are aware that liothyronine (T3) is very difficult to get on the NHS now. NHS England held a consultation in 2017 - "Items which should not be routinely prescribed in primary care:a consultation on guidance for CCGs" because of the huge increase in the cost of T3. Their decision was that patients already on T3 should be referred to an endocrinologist for a review and that any new patients should be referred to an endocrinologist to ask for a trial of T3.
Some Clinical Commissioning Groups, however, are not adhering to this decision. Also, many endocrinologists do not agree with treatment with T3 and therefore it would be a waste of time for patients to visit an endocrinologist such as this.
Some patients' GPs and endocrinologists are, however, prescribing T3 on a private prescription which they can then use to obtain T3 from outside of the UK at a much cheaper cost. Some hospitals and clinicians are suggesting this to their patients because they are aware that they are much better with the addition of T3.
If you obtain a private prescription you can try taking it to your local pharmacy and ask them if they can obtain T3 from outside of the UK. It's best to take your private prescription to an independent pharmacy as the larger chains tend to have a process whereby they cannot do this. However, do shop around as some charge much higher prices than others.
If you get no joy from your local pharmacy, you can try one of the pharmacies on our list here: www.thyroiduk.org/tuk/treatment/where_to_get_desiccated.html Again, shop around.
Alternatively, you can try some pharmacies in Germany. This is perfectly legal and they are much cheaper than the UK T3.
Eurapon Apotheke
This website can be viewed in English with Google although not 100% (for example, it states 100 hours rather than 100 tablets). You need to order the T3 and then do an international BACS transfer and post the prescription. We have been told it takes approximately four days for delivery. Instructions are on the page.
Bennewitz Pharmacywww.bennewitz.com/scat/scatpharm?command=listitems&type=search&search=thybon+20&lang=en
They have a telephone call-back system and we have been told that the pharmacist speaks good English so there won't be any language problems. The website can be viewed in English which is helpful. If you click on the bit which says the med is prescription only, it will show you the address to post your prescription to or you can wait for them to mail you an addressed envelope.
Parcelmed Versandapotheke
We have been told by someone that they had a good experience using this website. You can translate the page to English making it much easier to understand the ordering process.
If you find other pharmacies outside of the UK where you can use a private prescription, do let us know – firstname.lastname@example.com
Thyroid UK does not have a list of online pharmacies
where you can purchase medications without a prescription.
Where to report medication side effects:
The Yellow Card Scheme is vital in helping the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) to monitor the safety of the medicines and vaccines that are on the market.
You can report suspected side effects (also known as adverse drug reactions) to a medicine, vaccine, herbal or complementary remedy.
Where to find information online about medications:
The electronic Medicines Compendium (eMC)
The eMC provides electronic Summaries of Product Characteristics (SPCs) and Patient Information Leaflets (PILs).
It provides information on thousands of licensed medicines available in the UK.
The eMC is continuously updated with new and revised SPC and PIL information which, after approval by the licensing authorities, is submitted directly by pharmaceutical companies.
British National Formulary (BNF)
The BNF provides UK healthcare professionals with authoritative and practical information on the selection and clinical use of medicines in a clear, concise and accessible manner.
Registration (free) is required.
Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA)
The MHRA is responsible for regulating all medicines and medical devices in the UK by ensuring they work and are acceptably safe.
Generic versus Branded Levothyroxine
Medicines have both a trade or brand name, and a generic name. There can be several trade/brand names for a single medicine if several different companies supply it. For example, the generic name for synthetic T4 medicine is levothyroxine, but it can come with various different trade/brand names on the packaging e.g. Actavis, Teva, Eltroxin etc.
When you are officially diagnosed as hypothyroid by the NHS, you are prescribed levothyroxine. In the UK, hypothyroidism is one of a small number of medical conditions that currently entitles you to receive your medication completely free of charge. (You need to have applied for a Medical Exemption Certificate). In order to keep the cost of supplying this medication to the absolute minimum, it is usual for the prescribing doctor to simply write 'levothyroxine', with the relevant dosage, on the prescription. No 'brand' name will be specified.
This means that your pharmacy must give you the specified quantity and dosage of levothyroxine pills, as written on the prescription, but the pills can come from any manufacturer. So it is entirely possible that the packets of levothyroxine pills that you receive from your pharmacist can have a different name on the box each time your prescription is fulfilled.
The theory of generic medicine prescribing, is that whilst levothyroxine pills are made by a number of different manufacturers at various factories, the end products are all the same. So a 50 mcg pill from one manufacturer will do the same job as a 50 mcg pill from any of the other manufacturers.
However, thyroid patients often find that there is a very distinct difference between the various 'generics'. Everyone is different, and what suits one patient does not necessarily suit another. Also, swapping between the various brands on a regular basis makes some patients very unwell.
There is one official branded version of levothyroxine, which is Eltroxin (manufactured by Mercury Pharma). It is possible for your GP to write this brand name on your prescription, which will ensure that you are only supplied with the Eltroxin branded product. However, not all patients find that Eltroxin suits them.
If you have found that you feel better on tablets with a name other than Eltroxin on the box, you can ask your pharmacist to make sure that you are given levothyroxine from that supplier every time. Most pharmacies will try their best to do this for you if asked, but if necessary, shop around at different pharmacies until you find one that will accomodate your requirements.
NHS information about branded and generic medications can be found here:

What is it?
Italian cosmetic brand, KIKO MILANO completes 20 years of beauty and announced another milestone with the opening of its 1000th store in Ambience Mall at Gurgaon. Thus, KIKO has made a retail mark in a widespread geographical network over a span of 20 years. The beauty brand is present in over 20 countries. Moreover, they have an online presence in 36 nations offering over 1400 products. Also, they offer makeup, skincare and beauty accessories. Additionally, they also bring forth 1000 new products offered in limited edition collections every year.
However, epitomizing Italian modernity, KIKO is synonymous with art, fashion, beauty and design. The products offer a unique combination of quality and creativity that draw inspiration from Milan. Additionally, in September 2016, the brand made its first entry in India and launched its first store at DLF Mall of India in Noida. The next store was launched in DLF Promenade in Vasant Kunj. Nonetheless, now they have launched the third store in India, which is also the 1000th store worldwide.
Who came?
Gracing the occasion with their presence were Bollywood divas Vaani Kapoor and Diana Penty. Vaani Kapoor and Diana Penty joined Stefano Percassi and Timmy Sarna in the ribbon cutting ceremony to inaugurate the store.
"KIKO has witnessed an exponential growth during its first 20 years," says Stefano Percassi, founder, and CEO of KIKO MILANO. "We must keep on evolving with the changing needs of our customers. The opening of our 1000th store worldwide marks an exciting moment and an important milestone for KIKO MILANO. India is recognized as one of the fastest-growing markets in the world and I am glad to launch KIKO's 1000th store in India," he adds.
The Legacy.
It has been an extraordinary journey for KIKO MILANO. In these 20 years, KIKO has garnered loyalists among the most discerning beauty aficionados worldwide because of their endless array of shades and textures. The brand has satisfied every professional and personal makeup need. Beauty belongs to everybody and life as a matter of colors is the way we live – this is the vision of KIKO MILANO.

Daniel Sturridge and Jack Rodwell have been handed their first England call-ups by Fabio Capello – for the friendlies with Spain and Sweden. The pair have been elevated from the Under-21 squad after excelling for Chelsea and Everton respectively this season.
As expected, John Terry is also named, while Manchester United's Rio Ferdinand and Wayne Rooney are omitted from the 25-man squad. There is also a return for Aston Villa's in-form Gabriel Agbonlahor, at the expense of Andy Carroll, who has struggled for consistency at Liverpool this season.
The Liverpool full-back Glen Johnson returns from injury, forcing Manchester City's Micah Richards out of the reckoning. Joleon Lescott is back too, with Ashley Young the fourth member of the squad who faced Montenegro last month to miss out, this time through injury.
As usual, there was no captain named, and it remains open to debate whether Terry will get the job against the world champions on Saturday. Capello has insisted such a move would be for footballing reasons only, given he has already decided Terry is "innocent until proven guilty" of the racism allegation that has been levelled against him and are now the subject of police and FA investigations.
The reaction of a sell-out crowd at Wembley on Saturday cannot be predicted and Capello has already suggested the likes of Gary Cahill, Phil Jagielka and Lescott may be presented with the chance to face a Spain side who have proved to be the best in the world for the past four years. Sweden are the visitors to Wembley on Tuesday week.
Ferdinand will be asked to work on his fitness, while Rooney was told in a private meeting with Capello last Thursday that he will be excused duty and may, with United's permission, attend a Uefa hearing into the three-match ban he picked up for his dismissal in Podgorica.
None of this will have any effect on Sturridge. The 22-year-old has come into his own at Stamford Bridge after a productive loan spell at Bolton last season. Sturridge has scored five goals for Chelsea this campaign and started the win at Blackburn Rovers on Saturday.
"He's an interesting player and a player who scores goal," Capello said. "I saw him play right wing, left wing and centre forward. He has improved a lot."
England squad: Hart (Manchester City), Carson (Bursaspor), Stockdale (Ipswich Town); G Johnson (Liverpool), Jones (Man Utd), Cahill (Bolton Wanderers), Terry, Cole (both Chelsea), Baines, Jagielka (both Everton), Lescott (Man City), Walker (Tottenham); Lampard (Chelsea), Rodwell (Everton), Downing (Liverpool), Barry (Man City), A Johnson (Man City), Milner (Man City), Parker (Tottenham), Walcott (Arsenal); Bent (Aston Villa), Sturridge (Chelsea), Agbonlahor (Aston Villa), Zamora (Fulham), Welbeck (Man Utd).

AKA-my birthday! 28 years ago (on a Friday the 13th), I came into the world. So how did I commemorate this joyous occasion?
First thing this morning, I had a job interview. THAT was a fun way to kick off the day. It actually went well until I found out it was a part time position. I decided to go ahead and leave myself in the running. It would be great experience and it's a good company.
After I spent nearly an hour driving home because of a wreck on the highway and my general lack of knowhow in getting around these things, even with a gps, I changed clothes and spent another 30 minutes or so trying to motivate myself to get up and head out to enjoy a gorgeous day in Seattle.
I spent the afternoon at Gas Works Park (for those of you who like the movie 10 Things I Hate About You, this is where they filmed the paintball fight between Julia Stiles and Heath Ledger. I took a picnic lunch and a book and basically read and worked on my tan all afternoon. Then I wandered around downtown, ending up in Chinatown accidentally and stopped for the BEST sushi I've ever had. I had to save it in the GPS as "Best Sushi Ever" because the sign was in Chinese/Japanese. Then I headed back closer to home and caught a movie at a great little theater in Shoreline that shows 2nd run films.
My Examiner.com site went live today with my first article, but due to their ongoing site upgrades, the link doens't work. Go figure. So hopefully, they'll have that resolved sometime tomorrow and I can share my first article with the world. In the meantime, I'll be continuing to sleep on my air mattress and sit in my camp chair praying that the movers are indeed coming Sunday with my belongings.

The pugilistic metaphor of the "knockout line" is one of the big draws of election campaign debates.
Winning debates survival of the chillest
The pugilistic metaphor of the "knockout line" is one of the big draws of election campaign debates.
Partly this is because dry, overrehearsed political oratory needs to be spiced up to be memorable and viewers cherish whatever drama they can get. Mainly, though, it is because screen media – television, laptops, phones – are tailor-made for the big moment, broadcasting not just the words, but also the images of a candidate in full fight, swinging big rhetorical fists from behind the podium or taking one on the chin.
Thursday's big debaters – Canadian party leaders and Republican presidential hopefuls in the U.S. – are therefore nervous about joining a rich tradition. From Lloyd Bentsen's withering put-down of Dan Quayle, "You're no Jack Kennedy," to Brian Mulroney's devastating riposte to John Turner's excuses for patronage, "You had an option, sir," the stories are so famous candidates rehearse as much for fear as for optimism.
But this is changing. As more and more video clips are held up like chalices of political victory, their power is diminished. Ennui has settled in over the very idea of the knockout blow.
Now the U.S. and Canada are run by two long-serving incumbents – "No Drama Obama," with his collegiate swagger, and the strategically camera-shy Stephen Harper – a new ideal debate strategy is emerging: defence is valued over offence and opponents are tired out, rather than knocked out. In this fight, winning is survival of the chillest. "They both have benefited from a desire not to rock the boat," said Gil Troy, a political historian at McGill University and a longtime campaign watcher.
Evidence for the shift is building slowly but steadily. One revealing episode came in 2008, when Jack Layton went for the prime minister's jugular, saying his lack of a public platform meant he is either incompetent or does not care.
"Where's your platform? Under the sweater?" he said, having evidently rehearsed the joke about Harper's awkward dress sense in a campaign ad. Harper, of course, went on to win.
It is a slow shift, though. This week's Republican debate, which coincides with Canada's first leaders' debate, is sure to offer some outrageous line by the front-runner Donald Trump, memorably described in The New York Times as the first "post-policy candidate," whose campaign is widely expected to collapse once people start paying serious attention.
And because candidates don't know if they'll face a wall of ice or a barrage of fire, debates have lost none of their terror.
"Choreographed and unscripted, contrived and authentic, debates straddle the fault line between artifice and reality – like everything else on TV, only more so," wrote Alan Schroeder in Presidential Debates: 50 Years of High Risk TV. "The institution seems fully entrenched."
Of course, the importance of campaign debates has been Politics 101 for decades. And every time the medium for them changes, so do strategies to win over voters.
Canadian party leaders have done televised debates without exception since 1984, following American tradition.
When radio debates gave way to TV debates, verbose fire and brimstone oratory gave way to image control. The near-mythic image of Richard Nixon sweating and pasty in front of 85 million people in 1960 is surely burned into every politician's mind. As Troy said of that famous encounter, "Kennedy did not have a knockout line, he had a knockout tan."
There are unique challenges as TV gives way to the age of the Internet as well. Debates still matter, because they are watched on all kinds of devices. But the audience is far more splintered, better informed and more cynical about political authority. As a British satire website reported during the recent British election, the leaders' debate "was won by the person you've already decided to vote for … This result was backed up by the newspaper and websites you usually read, and about 80 per cent of the people you choose to be connected to on social media."
That can lead some politicians, said Troy, to follow the Hippocratic ideal of first doing no harm. There is a lot of damage control, defensive posturing and a reluctance to speak as forcefully as one might feel, for fear of seeming irrational or angry.
And for those who do decide to attack, the knockout must be unquestionable, or it invites brutal mockery. It is not enough to swing heavy. The punch must land hard.
Conservative strategist Kory Teneycke seemed to be baiting at least one opponent to lash out on stage, with all the danger that entails. When asked about Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau this week he said, "I think if he comes on stage with his pants on, he will probably exceed expectations."
As Troy put it in a baseball analogy, the Conservative goal is to let Harper try for consistent singles and doubles, and invite the other candidates to take the riskier swings for the fences. Now they just have to hope the others don't catch on to the same strategy.
"Just as shifting attitudes and technological advancements made the 1960 debates possible, so do new attitudes and technologies have the power to shape the debates of the future," Schroeder wrote.
For Thursday's debates, that does not mean candidates will not try to put down their opponents in the most direct, funny, clever, even glib way possible. But it does mean the deliberate attempt at the knockout blow might go the way of the oldtime radio campaign.
Thursday's federal election debate will air in English and French at 6 p.m. on CPAC.ca.

Thought Snot
by, 09-04-2008 at 03:07 PM (2617 Views)
Some days it just doesn't pay to climb out of bed in the morning. When I initially set up the blog software on this site I resolved myself to the idea that I was only going to post recipes and positive, upbeat information here; That I was going to stay away from posting anything overly personal, etc.
But folks, when I started budget101, I did so at the request of a few ladies that I frequently chatted with, swapped tips, stories, personal trials and tribulations. Perhaps I am a frugal guru, or budgeting freak looking for the least expensive ways to live within my means, yet still enjoy life.
I'm more than that, I'm also a Mom, a wife and a Business woman. I'm your typical Middle Class Mom raising a family in a lousy economy, and just like you, I have good days and bad days.
So, with that in mind, I'm going to tell you about my day yesterday.
I fully intended to take a few hours in the morning and revamp a hundred or so pages within the budget101.com recipes section. However, fate had other plans for me for the day, apparently. Plunking myself into the cushy computer chair, freshly made mug of steaming hot coffee, the phone rings. It's the school nurse, seems my oldest son, whilst deeply enthralled in a book was chewing on the back end of a pen, and it exploded at an inopportune time (as if there is a good time for such a thing to happen), and would I like to pick him up and take him to the hospital for possible ink poisoning.
" I ask does he seem to have any symptoms, (you know, swelling of the lips or tongue, etc)."
She replies, "No, he seems fine, but would you like to take him to the ER?"
"No Ma'am, I certainly wouldn't. Have the child rinse his mouth thoroughly and send his rumpus back to class, lesson learned. Should he come back to your office displaying any other symptoms BESIDES stupidity, Call Me."
I'm riled, now, partly because I can't believe this child was chewing on a stupid pen, which he knows better, but also because even though I realize it would take a great deal of non-toxic ink to make him ill, it still weighed on my mind.
Just as I settle down to my work and delve in with both feet, the phone rings again. A friend is calling to find out about the statute of limitations on debt collection and is quite upset by a phone call she just received. I realize, of course, that I'm not going to get any pages edited while on the phone and resolve myself to doing the dishes instead and shining my kitchen sink. So far, I'm not getting much accomplished, but hey, at least the kitchen is spotless.
Once again, off the phone, I sit down to the computer to edit a few more pages, only to realize that Its been a few hours since I had a chance to preview any moderated messages. (Members with fewer than 5 posts are moderated to help prevent spam, etc.) Just as I get logged in to moderator panel the telephone rings once more.
At this point, as I am walking to the phone I am thinking to myself, I cannot take any more crappy news today! Caller ID shows it's the Elementary school this time. I answer, it's the principal of my youngest son's school. "Ms Burnell, I'm calling to let you know that another student was attempting to take a pencil from your son and well, your son got stabbed with it."
She calmly explains that she's not sure whether they got all of the lead out of his arm and would I like to pick him up and take him to the Emergency Room. I asked her to put my child on the phone, at which point he told me what happened and how his arm looked, etc. He put his principal back on the phone and I asked her whether the other child's parents were contacted, to which she replied, "No, if he stabs another student again or has another incident, we'll contact them"
At this point I removed myself from the phone so I didn't come unhinged.
My son is a straight A student, top reader in his school and is in The National Beta Club, he shouldn't have to worry about getting Stabbed by another student at school. He'll be home in less than an hour and once more I attempt to edit some pages on the site.
Finally I hear the bus pull up and he comes in, I spend a few minutes or so cleaning his arm and applying an herbal ointment. It's bruised and it hurts, but will be fine. In the meantime, my oldest child arrives home from school, we have a rather interesting discussion about chewing on pens, etc and he's more interested in arguing the point of "matter" and whether or not "Thoughts" are "Matter".
(Oh, no, I'm not getting sucked into a long drawn out theoretical argument!)
It's already quarter to five and although I had started on the site several times throughout the day, I don't think I managed to update 10 pages all day long.
I wander into the kitchen pantry, staring at shelves lined with various home-canned goods, and homemade mixes, etc, trying to figure out what to make for dinner that would taste good, take very little time to prepare, etc. The dog starts barking, the kids are doing their after school chores and that damn phone is ringing again. During all of this the thought running through my head is how clever those Calgon Marketers were when they created the slogan, "Calgon, take me away".
I settle on grilling some crappie (haha, for you northerner's that's pronounced "Craw-pee") fish with a bit of lemon pepper seasoning, some grilled seasoned corn, and garlic smashed potatoes. It was the easiest, fastest meal I could think of that wouldn't require any actual work.
Well, after all of that, with the dinner mess cleaned up, a couple loads of laundry folded and put away, I grabbed the laptop and posted a few more freebies to end the day.
I tried to listen with interest to the political Bull-Snot that rattled in the background, but found myself increasingly disinterested and ready to crash for the night.
When I woke this morning, I looked at the ceiling and wondered to myself, "is this day gonna suck as bad as yesterday?"
ps. This has been a "Daily Thought Snot"- (you know, a ramble that just pours out and you try to sniff it back into your head, but it just has to drizzle out.

Perspective is an interesting beast. It is wonderful when you have it, destructive when you don't, and often times painful to obtain it. I have been given some perspective recently about being a mama and a wife.
You see, I've been worrying about Bud's sleeping habits all week. He got off of his schedule when we were visiting North Carolina and has been up throughout the nights since we got there and even back here. I've done tons of research, talked to a few friends, and spent countless hours praying for wisdom. Biggest lesson I learned, when you don't have sleep, things seem to be a pretty big deal. For instance, I pouted for a solid 15 minutes last night because there wasn't a new episode of "New Girl". I teared up because I didn't have any more pumpkin candy corn left in the house. (I had already depleted my hide-out stash).
Then perspective came.
Our dear friends are pregnant with their first child and he is getting deployed for a year and will miss the birth and most of the pregnancy. Sam and I thought we had a tough situation when we were afraid he would miss the birth of our son, but he was in Virginia in training… not Afghanistan. Perspective.
I know that people have said having a child really puts tension on your marriage but praise be to the Father, we haven't experienced that yet. I think a lot of it is because of perspective. I know that Sam could be deployed and his command knows that he'd like to go on this next mission. Knowing that he could leave us for a year in the near future makes every moment seem extremely valuable. Even if he never deploys, what a wonderful existence we are living in right now treasuring each moment. We had some friends over last night and he is about to deploy as well. (There is a huge group from Fort Lewis leaving so that's why a lot of our friends are heading out) but we were talking about the different perspective we have in our marriages. My friend said, "I don't get frustrated when I see his socks on the floor because that means he's home." Perspective.
I read this article this morning. I wept. I wept for this family. I wept for families like them. I wept that God had blessed me with a healthy child but a healthy child I needed to daily let go of. Every night when Sam prays for our family he always says, "Lord take our boy and do what you will with him. We know he belongs to you." and I always have to pray, "Give us the strength to truly lift our boy up to You Father and not hold him so tightly."
I have been holding Bud so tightly and fretting over little hiccups like sleep habits. I am not underestimating the importance of good sleep and because we are committed to that, he is back on track and we are all well rested. But I have to keep perspective and in the midst of learning how to parent, constantly praising God for our son who so far is healthy and safe and loved. He can see, he can hear, he is reaching milestones, and he can kick his chubby little legs. He is breathing his sweet soft breath on my cheek and nuzzling his adorable neck into mine as I get to cuddle him so closely. I have to remember how amazing this is in the grand scheme of things. I have to keep this perspective.
