'Tis the season for occasions.
Holiday parties. Weekends away. Family dinners. Office events. Relatives flying in from out of town. Friends getting together.
No matter what you have planned for the holidays, there will be plenty of chances to look your best, and plenty of opportunities to dazzle everyone you see.
And why not dazzle them by looking like YOU? No need to look younger, or look like someone else. Instead, we encourage you to highlight your own natural beauty, and celebrate just how gorgeous you already are.
Read on to find out how to create this natural look for yourself, so you can sparkle this holiday season.
How to achieve this look: Add our creamy Boomstick Color everywhere you naturally blush. That includes your cheekbones, forehead, sides of your eyes, sides of your neck, and décolleté.
The color blends to match your skin tone, so it looks like you're naturally blushing with pleasure, or you have just been away for a holiday weekend in the sun.
How to achieve this look: Dab on a little Boomstick Glimmer. This creamy cosmetic gives you a natural-looking sparkle,without adding glitter or frost. You can use Boomstick Glimmer on your eyelids and sides of your eyes.
If you're wearing a dress this season, try applying a little Boomstick Glimmer to your shoulders and décolleté for an extra hint of sparkle. (It's also subtle enough to wear in the daytime too.)
How to achieve this look: In a word, exfoliate. When you exfoliate, you strip away any tired-looking skin cells from your face, and make room for your newest, most beautiful skin.
When you're getting ready for holiday parties or gatherings this year, take a few extra minutes to exfoliate first, to reveal your freshest-looking skin.
Our new Boom Scrub is safe to use every day to gently exfoliate away your dull skin cells, and deep clean your pores with just a five-minute application. (Perfect for a quick pre-party exfoliation.)
How to achieve this look: Moisturize your face before you apply makeup. By moisturizing first, you'll give your skin a healthy-looking glow, and a well-hydrated surface for applying the rest of your makeup.
You may find you don't need to use foundation at all, after you moisturize. However, if you do choose to wear foundation, we suggest only using a very thin application of a creamy luxurious foundation. (Powdered foundation tends to accentuate any fine lines on your face, so always choose cream!)
Looking for a good moisturizer? Try our Boomstick Glo or Boomsilk. Both are made with the purest, all-natural ingredients. You can use either to quickly moisturize your face in seconds. (Both are also light enough to carry with you, if you're traveling this holiday season.)
How to achieve this look: Choose a lipstick that matches your gums. It's a simple way to make sure you're always selecting a natural-looking lip color.
Our Boomstick Color is designed to match every woman's natural skin tone, so it easily matches your gums as well.
If you're wondering, yes it's the same Boomstick Color you can use to give yourself a natural-looking blush. This one cosmetic works as a lipstick, blush, eyeshadow, highlighter, and bronzer. It's also a cream-based cosmetic, so it won't draw attention to any fine lines on your face.
You can also experiment with adding a little Boomstick Glimmer to your lips, for an extra bit of sparkle this holiday season.
Right now, everything in our Boom store is on sale for the holidays.
You can save 10% on all three of our Boomsticks (known as our "Boomstick Trio"), our Boomsilk moisturizer, and our new exfoliant, Boom Scrub. Click below to shop our sale now.
BOOM! also has a line of pro-age cosmetics and skin care to bring out your natural beauty at every age. Read on to hear what else is possible with BOOM!
The whole idea behind BOOM! is less is more. Women shouldn't have to be slaves to dozens of different makeup products—especially in their 50s, 60s, 70s and beyond.
You should be able to simplify your makeup routine, and pare down to just a few items that allow you to look your best. That's why our late founder, Cindy Joseph, originally created BOOM! and our line of three creamy cosmetic sticks—known as "Boomsticks"—that can easily replace everything in your makeup bag.
BOOM! is the sound of a revolution in cosmetics. Whereas other cosmetic companies are constantly adding products, we are taking them away.
While other skin care and makeup companies carry "anti-aging" products, BOOM! is the only company that is "PRO-AGE." And we are not the only ones who think age is beautiful.
Jennifer Aniston believes in aging gracefully and not overdoing it on the makeup. When asked by Self Magazine what is in her purse when she leaves for the day, she said, "Boomstick Color: It's an all-in-one stain for eyes, cheeks and lips that's so much fun."
"There is this pressure in Hollywood to be ageless," said Aniston. "I also understand that age is kind of awesome... Don't over-product — that's the other thing."
The Boom products come in identical white tubes that fit in the palm of your hand. Boomstick Color, a sheer berry for cheeks, brow bone, eyes, lips, forehead, neck and decollete; Boomstick Glimmer, a sheer iridescent champagne for the sides of the eye, eyelids, cheekbones, shoulders and decollete; Boomstick Glo, an olive oil and beeswax moisturizer for lips, cuticles, around the eyes, and anywhere else you can use quick moisturizing touch-ups.
Our late founder, Cindy Joseph, created our original Boom cosmetics and skin care line. As a makeup artist for 27 years, Cindy had unique insight into exactly how to bring out every woman's natural beauty at every age. Cindy always said: "As women age, looking fresh, rather than made up, is the key."
"The biggest makeup mistake that middle-aged women make is putting on too much under eye concealer," Cindy used to say. "At home, it might look OK, but in the daylight, it just looks like a bunch of gunk under your eyes. The older you get, the less makeup you should wear. It 's not a blank canvas anymore."
Long before Cindy founded BOOM!, she had two very successful careers—first as a makeup artist, and then as a silver-haired supermodel.
Cindy began her 27-year career as a makeup artist in San Francisco in the late '70s, working for Macy's, Esprit de Corp and others. It was there she pioneered the first "natural look" for women— which would later become the inspiration for our Boom cosmetics.
At age 49, Cindy let her hair go gray, and just like that, she was spotted on a New York sidewalk by a scout for the fashion photographer Steven Miesel and began her career as a silver-haired supermodel. Over the next two decades, she was featured in ads for Target, L.L. Bean, Dolce & Gabbana, DKNY, Olay, Nivea and others.
In her early 60s, she went into the cosmetics business herself with BOOM! After nearly three decades as a makeup artist, Cindy wanted to create the exact cosmetics she would want in her own makeup kit. As a silver-haired supermodel, she wanted to design a line of cosmetics that was not about hiding, but was about revealing a woman's natural beauty at every age. We are proud to say: she succeeded. The overall effect is a dewy, natural look that's ideal for every age.
Cindy's pro-age legacy lives on in the hundreds of thousands of women worldwide who follow her pro-age philosophy, and wear Boom cosmetics and skin care.
"By far this is the best 'make-up' for women over 40. I feel the need to brighten up just a little. Time is showing on my face, which is beautiful, but a splash of Boom is the perfect accompaniment of a wonderful life." — Susan

Iran is studying the possibility of sending a astronaut into space, the head of Iran's Aerospace Research Institute said.
Fathollah Ommi says "The space agency is considering the possibility of launching a space program with an astronaut aboard the spacecraft," IRIB News reported.
The program will be carried out in two phases, he said.
The first involves a sub-orbital spaceflight and the second (supposedly operational by 2025) will be an orbit launch.
A sub-orbital spaceflight is a spaceflight in which the spacecraft reaches space, but its trajectory intersects the atmosphere or surface of the gravitating body from which it was launched, so that it does not complete one orbital revolution.
An orbital spaceflight is a flight in which a spacecraft is placed on a trajectory where it can remain in space for at least one orbit. According to the ARI chief, the institute will send a robot or a live specimen into space before launching the human flight.
Iran has said that it sent a monkey into space in 2013 with the flight returning to Earth with the monkey alive.

LCA Supports Delay in Kingman Park Historic District Application; Solicits Resident Feedback
The Langston Civic Association's request to delay a vote on the Proposed Kingman Park Historic District application was successful. A vote on the application has now been rescheduled for January 25, 2018 in order to allow more time for resident input.
The primary reason that the Langston Civic Association became involved in delaying a hearing on this matter is because members of our community have complained of not receiving appropriate notice of this potential designation or being given the opportunity for feedback by those who submitted the application.
Thanks to our requests, the Office of Planning will be delaying a hearing on this application until next year and using the time before that to host a variety of events in our area aimed at educating residents about historic districts in general as well as this specific application.

The Langston Civic Association voted unanimously to protest the ABRA license held by the 7 Food store at 1830 Benning Rd. NE during a special meeting held on Tues. Oct 3, 2017 at 6 PM.
The owner of the store, Kevin Pak, was invited to attend but declined to do so for personal reasons. Mr. Pak sent resident Damone Plummer to speak on behalf of the store in his place. Association members spoke with a representative of ABRA about the protest process, reviewed the store's recent violations and discussed additional community concerns that have not been captured by ABRA oversight before coming to this decision.
Councilmember Kenyan McDuffie also attended the meeting to briefly field questions about his role offering oversight for ABRA as well as pending legislation focused on owners of nuisance properties in the District.

Welcome, darling friends, back to What to Wear When! This week, why not cover some choice outfits for a night in binge-watching anime? Because many people, like a lot of people, actually do that. I'm serious! There are more anime-obsessed people than one would think. I happen to be one of them. But, although you ultimately end up ruining your life by becoming obsessed with characters who do not exist in this world, at least you're passionate about something and get to enjoy awesomeness, which is always good, right? And let's face it, that's the way it is with almost every fandom, if not all.
Now, the prime question here is:
What type of anime are you watching?
There are many different types of anime. They have anime for almost every genre in the world, I think. However, let's keep it simple. Are you going to watch a show or a movie first of all? Next, is it going to deal with out-of-this-world types of things, or is it realistic fiction? Is it shoujo, shounen, or family-oriented? If it's shoujo, I recommend fuzzy pajama pants and an oversized sweater or sweatshirt. Maybe you might want to have a stuffed animal nearby for when you get to the emotional parts of shows like Ao Haru Ride, Say I Love You, or Kimi Ni Todoke. Sweats are also uber comfy. And fuzzy socks or just socks in general, and/or fuzzy slippers seem perfect for watching shoujo. They aren't mandatory, so feel free to go bare like L from Death Note (even though Death Note is not shoujo). For your hair, you might want to put it up in a bun, keep it down, put it in a sidebraid, ponytail…it's really up to you! Whatever is comfy for you is what you should pick. But no matter what…you might not want to wear makeup |em| unless you're certain it won't get in your eyes and stream down your face, or get everywhere when you end up sobbing uncontrollably.
If you decide to watch shounen, I recommend jeggings or gymshorts. They just seem to fit the mood. Sweats also work for this look, though. They work for almost any look, really. A tank top, camisole, or oversized t-shirt goes great with whichever of these pants you choose to wear. Keep in mind that you might get worked up and feel the need to punch something if you choose to watch shounen. Then the workout-esque clothes would come in super handy. You might also feel the need to lie down and scream out into the world for awhile, or go for a jog. Shounen just does that to you. Sometimes shoujo does, too, though. Just like shounen sometimes makes you cry your eyes out. So be weary. The rest of the outfit would go just like the shoujo one. Just don't slip on the socks or slippers when you decide to go for a pace around your house.
If you're watching a family-oriented movie, pajamas make the mood. Studio Ghibli offers plenty of films that you can laugh, cry, and smile along with. They also offer movies for you to watch in stock-still focus. Jeans and a t-shirt, or jeans and a t-shirt with a hoodie also work.
Whatever you decide to wear, I hope you enjoy the marathon/binge. The stories and characters that are brought to life by the creators of anime programs are incredible, and there are so many fantastic series and films out there for you to watch. Enjoy!
(I'll leave you off with a list of recommendations. I hope you love whatever one you choose to entertain yourself.)

Meek Mill is using his voice to change the criminal justice system. He became a national symbol for reform after a judge sentenced him in 2017 to prison time for a minor probation violation of a decade-old gun- and drug-possession conviction. He joined forces with Jay-Z and major league sports team owners, pledging $50 million to launch the "Reform Alliance" aimed at dramatically reducing the number of people who fall into similar situations.
Tag Archives: criminal justice system
JAY-Z speaks about Meek Mill's jail sentence: "Probation is a trap" for black people
Hov has written an op-ed for The New York Times in which he argues that Mill's case "is just one example of how our criminal justice system entraps and harasses hundreds of thousands of black people every day."
The Roc Nation head goes on to call probation "a land mine, with a random misstep bringing consequences greater than the crime. A person on probation can end up in jail over a technical violation like missing a curfew."
Speaking specifically to Mill's situation, he reiterates the well-referenced fact that both the prosecutor and the parole officer recommended no additional jail time, suggestions Judge Brinkley ignored in her sentencing. Further highlighting how unjust Brinkley's ruling is, JAY-Z points out that the Mills probation status stems from an 11-year-old case, and that the charges that led to the recent violations were all thrown out. JAY writes,
"In March, [Mill] was arrested after an altercation in a St. Louis airport. After video of what had actually happened was released, all charges were dropped against Meek. In August, he was arrested for popping a wheelie on a motorcycle on his video set in New York. Those charges were dismissed after he agreed to attend traffic school."
Yes, there were no actual charges against Meek Mill, yet he still is being sent to jail "..It's time we highlight the random ways people trapped in the criminal justice system are punished every day," JAY-Z continues. "The system treats them as a danger to society, consistently monitors and follows them for any minor infraction — with the goal of putting them back in prison."


text: On 27 March 1986 an unprecedented act of public violence resulted in the death of a policewoman, Angela Taylor, serious injuries to many others and millions of dollars in damage. The crime, motivated by a hatred of police, was intended to create a diversion while a gang of criminals committed an armed robbery in Donvale. Until 1978 Russell Street had been the site of the police headquarters, and in 1986 the complex housed many sections including the D24 Communications Centre. The massive explosion blew in every window of the building and most in the nearby Magistrates' Courts. The explosives had been stolen a year earlier from a mine at Blackwood. They were packed into a stolen car, which two of the gang left in a bus zone outside Russell Street. A timer set off the explosion. An exhaustive investigation led to the July 1988 conviction and sentencing of Stanley Taylor and Craig Minogue for murder, and of Rodney Minogue and Peter Reed for related offences. Rodney Minogue's conviction was set aside on appeal. Followed closely by the murder of two policemen in Walsh Street in 1988, the bombing underscored continued police vulnerability to criminal threat.

Cement prices are expected to rise by about 15% in late June, says chairman of the board of directors at Cement Industry Employers Association. According to Mohammad Atabak, the hike in prices is meant to compensate the rising production costs, IRNA reported.
Iranian cement producers have been hit in recent years with a myriad of adverse factors, including an ongoing recession in the domestic construction sector and the loss of their primary export destination, Iraq, as a result of the western neighbor's high import tariffs on Iranian cement.
About 15 million tons of cement and clinker–the main material used in cement production–were exported in the last Iranian year (March 2015-16), with Iraq accounting for close to 65% of this figure. Iran is the biggest producer of cement in the Middle East and the fourth largest in the world.

Cold Fusion of Adventure
When it's snowing you really don't want to spend a lot of time thinking about climbing boulders and wading through water for a hike with your girlfriends. But when you are an official member of "Arizona Women of Adventure" you may not have a choice. Two days of steadily falling spring snow had interrupted our warm, sunny weather and plans for my first hike of this very special and remote canyon. I expected our hike to be cancelled by Sara, our organizer and four time veteran of the remote, physically demanding Cibecue Canyon Falls hike near the White Mountains of Arizona. But what Woman of Adventure doesn't quicken to the call of a 4 mile bouldering, wading, steep canyon wall hike with a thundering water fall at the end?
No matter how many times you hike into a steep canyon, it's always a thrill. Lucky for the six of us, the drive to the trailhead took us down, down, down from our 7,000 ft home elevation of the Mogollon Rim. As we descended we got below the snow line. We knew we would be picking our way through the water and climbing boulders, so the absence of fluffy, white stuff was a psychological boon if nothing else. The water was still what you would call "fresh" if you are hard core. Downright cold if you are a "wimper"
As we parked at the trailhead I switched from my "water shoes" to my serious hiking boots. There was nothing tropical about this hike and some of the boulders we had to climb were room sized. I decided that if there came a point where I couldn't feel my feet from the cold water, I at least wanted a good grip on the rocks. Lucky for us, one of our group is a geologist and we came to see the rocks and boulders as very special instead of obstacles.
"Are you ready for this" the "other Julie" called out when were forced into the water where the trail fizzled and the boulders were swallowed by steep canyon walk. I can't say that I entered that water with enthusiasm, but most of enjoyment in an adventure is attitude. They don't call us adventurous for nothing! Plus, outings like this improve your fitness and focus. With a combination of steep boulders and thigh deep water over loose rocks you have to consciously place every footstep.
As it turned out the water started to feel warmer the closer we got to the end of the canyon and headwaters. The water and "trail" zigged and zagged so much that every so often a totally new scene would unfold before us. Cibecue Canyon is a steep canyon of basalt and colorful quartzite. From down in it, you can never see all of it or even much of it as it rises in mighty stacks around you. With dozens of boulders to go around or over we migrated more and more to wading across the Cibecue Creek rapids with our walking poles for stability. Better to fall in the water than to fall from a boulder!
At last, we raised our arms and gave Tarzan yells when we turned a corner and saw the 100 foot waterfall at the canyon head. The waterfall thundered down into a deep pool that in better conditions begged skinny dipping. As we gathered on the rocky beach for lunch, we realized every step was worth this; drive through the snow, climb those boulders, slip on those rocks in the rapids, and yes, perhaps a touch of hypothermia….we WILL go back. Next time will seem so easy.

text: clarence 678 Report post Posted April 10, 2016 Yesterday my character Krys Noim ended up in a shabby 1930s dockside bar in downtown Glimminge, playing a game of poker with the gangsters running the place. This is how I did it. Using an extended conflict (with conflict pools calculated from characteristics), similar to the rules in Revolution d100, worked very well. 1. Choose the type of game - card games, dice, chess, etcetera. (This does not affect the following rules). 2. In a high-level gaming environment, a successful Gaming skill roll may be needed to be allowed to participate. 3. Calculate the conflict pools of all PCs involved: (INT+POW) divided by 2. This will be the equivalent of hit points, with Gaming as the "attack" skill. (A typical conflict takes 3-4 rounds to resolve - use INT+POW straight for the game to last longer). 4. Determine the "gaming stats" of NPCs as follows (if you don't already know them): Low-level/casual/beginner: Gaming 30%, Conflict pool 6. Mid-level/regular/knowledgable: Gaming 50%, conflict pool 11. High-level/proffessional: Gaming 70%, conflict pool 16. 5. Place your bets. The GM and players come to an agreement about the size of the bets. 6. Start playing! Use opposed rolls, with the highest success in Gaming skill winning the round. The winner deals 1d6 damage to every other participant (only roll damage once per round - everyone takes the same amount of damage). When a PC/NPC is reduced to a conflict pool of zero, s/he is out of the game. The last PC/NPC to have a conflict pool left wins the game. Now, either the winner takes it all, or the money is divided according to how many rounds each player won. (Example: Four players bet €100 each; €400 in total. The game lasted four rounds, with player 1 winning three (and winning the entire game) and player 2 winning one round. Player one gets €300 and player 2 €100. Or player 1 wins all €400). Cheating: To be able to cheat the skill Sleight of Hand is required. For every successful Sleight of hand roll, the cheater gets a +10% bonus on his/her Gaming skill the same round. Failure gives no bonus and the other card players will detect the cheating with a successful Spot roll. For more elaborate setups prepared beforehand, a larger bonus can be used. All in all, it turned out to be a quick and exciting way to resolve a situation like this. The actual dice rolling moment raised the intensity of the session in a way not far from a real poker game. At the same time it was fast paced enough to not bog down the scenario. (Krys Noim won big : ) His high Gaming skill (80%) saved him, despite his rather ordinary pool (11). The others may hold a grudge with him though... Not the best place to make enemies). 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is it time to get out all those old Red Sox worry beads?
Is it time to start brushing up on all the tortured history?
Is is time for some sort of baseball intervention?
Or what in in the name of "Morgan's Magic″ is going on here?
For this past weekend's three-game series against the Tampa Bay Rays was the first time the Sox got swept this season.
Think about that for a second, roll it around on your tongue for a while, then think about it again. For here we are staring at September and for the first time all season there's a hint of a certain vulnerability about the Red Sox. Getting swept by the Rays will do that.
Is it just one of those things, a baseball version of a lost weekend, one of the realities of a long season? Or does it speak of larger issues?
That's the question that now seems to have sneaked into the Red Sox dugout as the afternoon shadows start to spread across the field, the promise of playoffs in the air. It is such a long season, one in which flaws are so difficult to hide. And it's such a unique game, one in which pitching can overcome so many other ills.
Which might just be the issue.
That was the message from the weekend, one in which saw the Red Sox get swept. To the point that they have lost six of their last eight games, which if not an example that the sky is falling, is a graphic reminder that the Sox are at least in a bad stretch.
Which is easy to overlook, given that they got off to such a great start. If we didn't know any better, we might have thought that they had wrapped up the division. No such luck. Take away David Price, and the rest of the rotation is struggling. Memo to Chris Sale: Red Sox Nation turns its lonely eyes to you.
Here we are with September in the on-deck circle, here we are with the Sox' lead over the Yankees down to six games going into Monday night's action, here we are with first-year manager Alex Cora earning his spurs in the dugout, here we are with the Sox all but in the on-deck circle for a postseason run.
But the Yankees are looking like they just might make a September run, and the Sox looking like they're starting to feel the heat, as if they're both waiting for some late season dramatics. And isn't that what baseball needs around here, another great season run between the Sox and the Yankees, another great postseason passion play?
We all know that these are not the greatest times for baseball, even with the wonderful season the Red Sox are having. We all that the Patriots are the biggest dog in the sports kennel, even around here.
Which is why this Red Sox season is so important.
If nothing else, it's proving there's room for both in New England's big sports heart, it's proving that there's room enough for both when it comes to our affection. The big crowds in Fenway all summer have told us that. The big buzz all summer has told us that. Maybe even more than that, history tells us that.
There's no doubt that the Red Sox go down through the generations like no other team in New England. Baseball goes back to the early years of the 20th century around here, a game that in many ways grew up with the country, passed down like some old family treasure. In many ways it's the most American of games.
And one that always pushed America forward, going back to Jackie Robinson integrating the majors in 1947, one of the most symbolic moments in this country's history.
So here we are in this summer of 2018 and with the Red Sox, the last team in baseball to integrate with an All-Star outfielder named Mookie Betts as their best player, and an Hispanic named Alex Cora as their manager.
Who said things don't get better?

Where Does the Time Go?
September 15, 2015 § 2 Comments
Is it really the middle of September?
This year has been an interesting one so far. Very much a three steps forward, two steps back dance with accomplishing goals. One week I would be going like gang busters, starting AND finishing little projects without even blinking.
The next thing I know another two weeks have gone by and I haven't done a thing.
I feel ya kitty, I really do.
§ 2 Responses to Where Does the Time Go?
It certainly has been an interesting year! So many changes over here. I've even been thinking about blogging again . . . maybe. 🙂

Oregon drug rehab center
Drug rehabs in Oregon can be difficult to locate for someone. When you are looking for example a cocaine rehab in Oregon for someone you love, it can be long for you to choose the right one as they are so many different program's convictions, duration and locations. What treatment has the higher level of success? What is their staff ratio? You are just a phone call away of being helped to find the right treatment. Just a few questions and we will be able to guide you in finding the best program.
We have searched for programs in Oregon. Before we go on, let's take a look at our philosophy. A very important fact is that we don't refer addicts to treatments or programs which use Drugs or Medication in any possible way as part of the addiction treatment. Our conviction is that a pill can not assist anyone to get rid of the addiction. It would be interesting if we could get the addiction solved with just pills. But it doesn't work like this. Addiction is very often a solution to several failures the person had over the years. Finding no solution for that, the addict uses Drugs or Alcohol as a way of apparently getting rid of those problems. As Medication is also kind of a Drug, logically, it shouldn't`t help an addict to get off drugs. It can only mask the problems and make them look smaller for a while.
Drug rehab centers services has done his homework!
Our team of Certified Chemical Dependency Counselors understand addiction and we know what's available in rehabs across North America. We will help you navigate through the maze of rehabs and find you the one that best suits your circumstances.
Let us help you on your path to a drug free life.
Alcohol rehab center Oregon
Recovery from alcohol can be a hard task to achieve to a full result. Alcoholism will often require an alcohol detox medically supervised. The alcoholic is medically monitored during the detox process to get him ready to attend an alcohol treatment in Oregon. Once someone is physically addicted to alcohol, the alcoholic is in a situation whereby stopping his drinking from alcohol can kill him while continuing to drink alcohol is killing him anyway and the loved ones around. Going through an alcohol detoxification can be really hard. The condition is "delirium tremens" or D.Ts. When the alcoholic drank to the point of physical addiction to alcohol and suddenly stops his drinking. He will within a short period of time become delirious and will loose touch with reality. They can be some severe panic attacks with tremors that will be out of control which can lead to grand mal seizures. Apart the risks associated with stopping alcohol, sobriety worth every hard time that an alcoholic can experience during his alcohol detox.
Above are the potential dangers associated with the achievement of being alcohol free life and often this is the hard part for alcohol addiction rehabs. Once you have achieved stability, intensive alcohol rehabilitation treatment is mandatory to acquire a rational look of your alcohol addiction and this is true for any type of addiction either for drugs or alcohol to find your underlying causes for your alcoholism. This way you will be able to experience long lasting stable success. Also to get the satisfaction of becoming your alcohol addiction. From drug addiction to alcoholism, there are similar situation but just different substances and withdrawal symptoms.
We can help you to find the most suitable Oregon alcohol treatment for a loved one or for yourself.

Oregon has one of the most diverse landscapes of the fifty states. It is well known for its tall, dense forests and its accessible, scenic Pacific coastline. Less well known are the semiarid scrublands, prairies, and deserts that cover approximately half the state in eastern and north-central Oregon. It is one of the few places in the Northern Hemisphere where lift-serviced alpine skiing is available year round.
The state's name is properly pronounced ôr'ĭ-gŏn'. The pronunciation ôr'ĭ-gən is also common, but considered incorrect by residents, who have been known to sport T-shirts and bumper stickers spelling the name "Orygun" in order to educate visitors.
Oregon's population in 2000 was 3,421,399, a 20.4% increase over 1990. The Census Bureau estimated Oregon's population to have reached 3,594,586 by 2004.

TMCnet recently spoke to some of our favorite industry analysts to get their thoughts on 2013 and the year ahead in tech. Here's our interview with Frank Stinson, partner and senior analyst with IntelliCom Analytics.
Who is 2013's most interesting person in tech?
"The most interesting person to me over this past year has not been a specific individual, but rather, the business user in general. The rapid proliferation of smartphones and tablets in the enterprise, combined with the growing variety of cloud-based alternatives to business productivity applications, puts a lot of power directly in the hands of individual employees. Enterprise technology providers are scrambling to change their marketing and sales approaches to take advantage."
What was the year's biggest tech failure?
"Well, that is a pretty easy one – the launch of the Obamacare federal exchange website. It was not exactly built using state of the art technology from what I understand, but it would be hard to imagine a more high-profile failure given its budget and lead time."
What were the three most important tech development of 2013, and why?
"Within the unified communications and collaboration space that I track most closely, a number of major providers have been moving toward software-based delivery and business models for a number of years now, but that concept appears to have finally reached mainstream acceptance in 2013 and is being driven by surging interest in the virtualization and cloud-based packaging options that it enables.
"Virtualization and cloud support have also brought enterprise-grade capabilities within reach of smaller customers than in the past. A number of mid-market solutions have emerged over the past year that leverage virtualization to provide an integrated suite of enterprise UC applications on a common hardware platform that is cost effective at smaller user size configurations than when delivered standalone. And public cloud-based offers sometimes based on the same underlying software can extend that down even further to small businesses.
"Much has been written about how social networking technologies have changed expectations around privacy, but the NSA domestic surveillance revelations were still a shock to a lot of people. I think that many have rushed ahead with the promise of the latest new technologies without fully thinking through the potential downsides. A car, for example, that automatically contacts the manufacturer if it detects a malfunction and either uploads a software fix while you drive or orders replacement parts for when you next come in for service might sound appealing. But if that same black box is also used to send you a traffic ticket or deny warranty coverage based on your driving habits, it would probably not be so cool then."
What was the most noteworthy acquisition of the year?
"Microsoft's acquisition of Nokia's device business was particularly noteworthy, but not just in terms of the capabilities being acquired. It was a defensive buy in many ways, as Microsoft needed to ensure that Windows Phone would continue to be supported by a major smartphone manufacturer. Windows Phone still trails in the mobile OS market share race, but maintaining a viable presence in this space will be increasingly important to Microsoft's core enterprise business if the consumerization of IT continues on its present trajectory."
Which companies are prime candidates for acquisition?
"There are several legacy enterprise voice providers either up for sale by their parent company or at least partially owned by private equity and at a point in the lifecycle of these investments where their owners may be looking for an exit strategy. Cisco's continued strength in this space, combined with Microsoft's current heavy push around Lync 2013, limits the growth prospects for the legacy players in the absence of some further consolidation."
Customer experience, the cloud, M2M/IoT, mobile wallet, wearable tech and WebRTC were hot topics of discussion in 2013. What do you expect to be the hot topic(s) in 2014?
"I think that several of these areas will remain hot topics into 2014 and beyond. The Internet of Things is largely a discussion among technology infrastructure providers and developers at this point, but when it starts to show up more broadly in consumer technologies, it will mushroom.
"WebRTC remains a promise that requires differences in how the standard is being interpreted by providers to be resolved before it can come to fruition, and I would expect a vigorous debate on that in 2014.
"The cloud today is a bifurcated market where public cloud services have had the most success with small businesses while large enterprises have gravitated to private clouds hosted from their own data centers. In 2014, you will see greater provider focus on hybrid approaches blending public and private cloud implementation to bridge that gap. And whether it is through your customers, partners, or own employees, the user experience of new applications and technologies will remain a key area of emphasis going forward."
What are your top three 2014 predictions for our industry?
"Enterprise communications is on the verge of disappearing as a discrete market. The IP PBX has been increasingly absorbed into broader collaboration value propositions in recent years, and now that it has evolved largely to a software model, its delivery is much more in synch with any number of other IT technologies than the proprietary and siloed voice systems of the past. Remaining legacy providers will face a shakeout in 2014 based both on the viability of their business models and the relevancy of the value they provide.
"Business process integration has been a key aspect of vendor UC value propositions for a number of years, but its reliance on specialized IT development interfaces and third-party consultants has limited real-world implementations to date. But, a new generation of integration tools utilizing improved APIs and snap-in type applications may begin to change that and even eventually put basic customization in the hands of the business user directly.
"The consumerization of IT now being driven by mobility and the cloud is causing providers to rethink traditional go-to-market approaches. Adoption of UC and collaboration applications has lagged expectations because the business user has not historically had direct visibility into the new capabilities IT has been considering, and IT often lacks the business context. There seems to be a growing consensus that marketing and sales approaches need to fundamentally change to better reach the user, but no one seems to have quite figured out how to do that. The winners and losers in the market will ultimately be determined by who does."
If there's just one thing related to tech that businesses need to know going into 2014, what is that one thing?
"Tech is not just an area that IT needs to be concerned with and budget for anymore. Enterprises that do not more broadly engage individual lines of business, functional departments, and business users when evaluating new technologies – particularly in the collaboration space – will not achieve the full value they potentially provide."

Pumpkin Beer – America's Favorite Seasonal Brew!
- October 23, 2019
The Pumpkin Beer Seasonal Sensation
Once the temperature drops and leaves start to turn, it's time to break out America's favorite six-pack of sugar, spice, and everything nice – pumpkin beer! Nothing says fall quite like pumpkins and beer, and American breweries have done a superb job at combining the two.
It might surprise you that pumpkin beers have only been a seasonal trend since 1995. Since then, they have caught the attention of beer lovers everywhere, in part because the flavor can be adopted to almost any style of beer. The blend of pumpkin-to-spice ratio differs from brewer to brewer. Some add hand-cut pumpkins to the mash while others opt for a puree or pumpkin flavoring. Spices like cinnamon, ginger, cloves, allspice and nutmeg are then mixed in to add a bold flavor.
Calorie and Carbs Fluctuate
Depending on the brand and style pumpkin beers, like most other alcoholic beverages, can vary substantially in calories and carbs. Since beer is regulated by the U.S. Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB)and not the U.S. Food and Drug Administrationmost products are not required to contain nutrition information. But there's good news… Beer industry leaders including Anheuser-Busch, MillerCoors, HeinekenUSA, Constellation Brands Beer Division, North American Breweries, and the Craft Brew Alliance – which produce over 81% of the volume of beer sold in the United States – have agreed to voluntarily disclose information about calories, carbs, fat and protein on all of their labels. Check out the Brewer's Voluntary Disclosure Initiative. If you're going to have a sensational fall treat, look for the brands that contain this important information for your health. Most pumpkin beers have more calories and carbs compared to regular "lite" beer.
Know Your Limit
Calories and carbs aren't the only components that fluctuate amongst various products. Knowing how much alcohol you consume is equally important for health. The U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americansrecommend adults over the age of 21-years limit alcohol consumption to 2 drinks per day (men) and 1 drink per day (women), respectively. What constitutes a drink? It's 14 grams of alcohol. Check out my blog, "How Much Alcohol Am I Consuming?" for information on how to calculate the amount of alcohol you are consuming.

In Southern cities in the U.S. from 1900-1930, many boys and young men found employment with telegraph companies or local drugstores as bike messengers. These candid photos from 1908-1917 by Lewis Hine give you a rare glimpse in to the unique culture they developed and what their daily lives were like.
"A typical group of Postal Messengers in Norfolk, Va. Smallest on left end, Wilmore Johnson, been there one year. Works days only. The Postal boys are not nearly so young, in Norfolk and also in other Virginia cities, as are the Western Union boys." June 1911
April 1912
"Wilbur H. Woodward, Washington, D.C., Western Union messenger 236, one of the youngsters on the border-line, (15 yrs. old) works until 8 P.M. only."
June 1911
"Hodges Gallop, Western Union Messenger No. 16, Norfolk, Va…. Been working here one month. He, and several other very young boys, work until 10:30 P.M."
October 1913
"Marion Davis, Messenger #21 for Bellevue Messenger Service. Fourteen years old. 'Been messenger, off and on, for two years. Not supposed to go to the Reservation under sixteen years, but I do just the same. The boss don't care and the cops don't stop me.' Location: Houston, Texas."
August 1911
"Young messenger in New Bedford, Massachusetts."
October 1914
"A typical Birmingham messenger."
While the streets up north were typically lined with "newsboys," cities like Nashville and Birmingham were teeming with young fellows zooming in and out of traffic delivering all kinds of things from medical supplies to telegrams.
November 1910
"Postal Telegraph messenger. Location: Birmingham, Alabama."
October 1913
"Luther Wharton, drug store delivery boy, twelve years old. Works from 4:00 P.M. to midnight in Sommers Drug Store. I saw him working at midnight. He goes to school in the daytime, then works from four to twelve. Sundays half a day. Gets $5.00 a week."
"Postal Telegraph boy, Danville, Va. That night he refused to show me through the Red Light District, said the manager did not permit them to go on such errands."
November 1913
"Percy Neville in the heart of the Red Light district. Just come out of one of the houses with message…. He said gleefully 'She gimme a quarter tip.'"
October 1913

keep the blues alive
"To me the blues has always been about commentary and story telling. Speaking up and speaking out. Truthfully. It was a force in reporting on social, personal and political situations and still can be. Times have changed, so the blues specifically, has a greatly reduced impact compared to what it was."

Presentations that have a large number of slides may get unwieldy and also pose a challenge as far as managing them is concerned, unless they are logically divided into Sections. On the other hand, even presentations that do not have a large number of slides can benefit from Sections. However, the mere act of dividing slides into Sections will not achieve much unless you create and name these Sections in a proper manner to represent what the slides within each Section contain. In this tutorial, let us learn how to add Sections, and also how to rename them.

Ex-Wolff Olins staff start-up Be
Brand Environment, the start-up consultancy established by two ex-Wolff Olins senior 3D designers, has been appointed by an unnamed airline and has won two rail projects since its unofficial launch at the start of this year.
Be, as the consultancy will trade, has been set up by architect Robert Wood and interior designer Joseph Mitchell, who have between them headed projects for Go, Orange, Heathrow Express Channel 5, Lloyds TSB and Tesco.
The duo will concentrate on branding and identity work. Both say they have extensive transport and retail experience, but do not want to be pigeonholed.
Wood says the consultancy is looking to extend the Wolff Olins work ethic rather than overturn it. "Because we are lighter and faster, we can be much more innovative with brands," he adds.
Further multidisciplined staff will be recruited to the consultancy's London offices as more projects are won.

Life is incredibly busy! Throw the holidays and taking care of the family into the mix and it can be easy to forget to show love to your significant other. Keeping the passion through the busy season is very challenging as some days I am struggling just to make it through the day, but finding romantic ideas for busy couples like myself can be done with little bit of planning, creativity and products like K-Y® TOUCH®.
12 Days of Romantic Ideas for Busy Couples
Monday: Leave a special personalized note next to your partner's coffee or morning drink to start each other's week off on a good vibe.
Tuesday: Cook your special someone's favorite meal or order in to save you time from cleaning and cooking. Double win!
Wednesday: Simply go for a walk together to refresh and avoid technology distractions to allow for conversation.
Thursday: Send your loved one something sweet or fun at their office or home. It's the thought that counts. Extra points if it's chocolate (for me anyways… hint..hint!)
Friday: Do nothing at all! Sounds like something an old married couple would enjoy, but sometimes I simply love to snuggle up to my husband and binge watch our favorite television series once our daughter goes down for the night. I won't lie – sometimes we do fall asleep during our binge-watching, but sleep is also a gift that we both enjoy!
Saturday: Date Night at a Holiday Party ending with an intimate night using K-Y® TOUCH®.
Sunday: Work on a DIY project together that you have been putting off for months or years perhaps. Have you always wanted to paint a room, plant a garden or refinish a piece of furniture? Work together to create a unique masterpiece that you can both can enjoy. If that isn't your cup of tea, do something sports related and enjoy some playful competition.
Monday: If you both work and are able to sneak away for a lunch date – do it! Sometimes that is the only time we are able to have a great conversation sans kids and we are able to enjoy and savor each bite that we take rather than scarfing down our food because our toddler is already done eating after two minutes! If one of you stays at home, visit the other at their workplace if you can to sneak away for a bite and to change up your routine.
Tuesday: Bust out old photos or home videos of special times in your relationship (your wedding, perhaps) and reflect on how far you have come together as a couple. Talk about your goals and ways to strengthen your relationship moving forward.
Wednesday: Wednesday is Hump Day! You get the point.
Thursday: It's been a long week and you are exhausted waiting on the weekend to happen, take it easy and give each other a foot or back massage using K-Y® TOUCH® as a lubricant.
Friday: Congrats you survived the week! Make a toast with your drink of choice and cheers to finding ways to make your relationship better in a world full of temptations, stress and distractions.
Investing in your relationship is the best use of time anyone can make. It's hard and tempting to not do so, but it's important none the less.
When you are short on time and looking for some time with your special someone, products like K-Y® TOUCH® can help the process! By the way, I used this K-Y® TOUCH® $2 off coupon when I shopped for the product at Walmart.
This product is super easy to find and please don't be embarrassed when you give it to the cashier. Remember, you are investing in strengthening your relationship with your main squeeze.
Follow K-Y® on Facebook and YouTube. Don't forget to use the K-Y® TOUCH® $2 off coupon!
How will you plan for romance with your partner this Holiday season?

Avnet likely means well, just as Rokeach meant well. Three Christs needs more than a deep focus on the Christs themselves, and on the system that so utterly failed them. It needs to focus on Stone, and on the collision between ego and benevolence that led to The Three Christs of Ypsilanti's birth. That should be the story.
The cast can't cure all the movie's problems, from its abrupt ending to a random acid-test scene, but it's not without its curious appeal as a star-studded failed "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" experiment.
Gracefully directed by Fried Green Tomatoes and Justified director Jon Avnet, Three Christs is a great dark comedy about a dark subject. I can't say enough how great the performances are. It's a relevant character study on those who suffer from mental illness and the ones who treat it and why they do.

Following the recent saga between M.I Abaga and Pulse TV's Osagie Alonge and also the letter by upcoming rapper "Kead", a real fan of M.I Abaga has come to defend his rap legend in many ways than one.
Dear Brother,
Let me first put it straight to you that you are NOT M.I Abaga's fan. If loving M.I was a religion, it'd be perfect if I called you a 'back-slider', because 'true love' is loving people irrespective of their flaws and loving people when other people hate them most. So, if you saw some things in M.I's life which you thought to be flaws and these things made your love for M.I to diminish, then, am sorry, but, you never loved the nigga, you only pretended to!
Thank God you admitted that when M.I came, he was a game-changer and that he had classic debut. You said, "It's been three years since your last album and two years since your last project. Yes, I saw your tweet about your next album being ready. I would leap for joy but we have been down this road before with false hopes and many release dates.". But brother, does extending the release date of an album show cowardice? Sometimes, a soldier may retreat and a Lion may pause an action. This, my brother, does not show lack of courage or cowardice!
I laughed boisterously when I read this in your letter, 'What's happening M.I? Why has the music suffered? I won't lie. The fan in me rated "The Chairman" album highly » . The collaborative approach to its production got me. Sadly, that LP had a short shelf life partly due to the lyrics which were below your very high standards. The spark is gone, the flows are not the same and the bars have gone soft bro. It seems there is no more soul in your music. Everything has gone cold.".
Chere o. Did you say the 'Chairman' album is below standard? OMG! Do you know that the tracks in the album has a square fact? That's the song titles on each side of the album are opposite to each other, except for the track in the middle that is titled 'The Middle'. Like, 'The Begining' and 'The End', 'Monkey' and 'Human Being', 'Mine' and 'Yours', etc.
You said there is no more soul in M.I's music and that the lyrics are below standard. Lol. Did you listen to the track, 'Brother'? The one he did with Nosa and Milli. He did it for his Choc Brothers. That track would make anyone cry!.
What about the lines in 'Bad Belle'? Did you notice the metaphor he created with Dora Akunyili and drugs? Well, I think you are one of the niggas who does not know that there's about to be a famine and worst still, you neither know what we planting nor what we planning!
It was people like you he taught he was talking to in the track, 'Yours'.
How can you say that M'I's bars have gone soft? You don't get it, bro, M.I has no lip; He can't suck!
M.I is one of the very few rappers who do not rap without reason or message. Unlike most rappers, 85% of his songs have deep messages. Have you listened to 'Money'? What about 'The Box'?.
Aside the fact that his lines are highly intellectual, his 'play-on-words' is essential. The way he plays on words tells he is an extra-ordinary PUNstar.
The way you are complaining about his silence sef. A good song takes a long time to be produced. Abi you want him to be releasing album every week? When a 'genius' is been silent or 'in' for this long, you should know that when he 'cums' out, the 'release' would last.
Do you remember his pun with the vowel sounds, 'a, e, i, o, u' (Hey, I owe you no vows)? Do you remember the pun with the Biblical books, 'Luke, Mark and John'?..
The guy is now the C.E.O of Choc City. Is that post not strong enough to keep a rapper silent? If he goes to studio everyday, what will the signees under him do, kwanu?
Will Jesse Jags, Ice Prince or Brymo be in Choc City forever? Rappers are born everyday, Choc City is a company, one rapper leaving does not mean it's falling as long the Chairman is the boss.
M.I is forever great. I don't want to talk about his projects, such as illegal music, etc.. Those ones na another achievement on their own. M.I is a light to Nigeria hip-pop.
M.I is a very outstanding rapper but some people have agreed to disagree with that. And the fact is that we don't have time to prove what is right, right, so, let's just leave it in THE MIDDLE..
From your letter to M.I, I think and am sure that you are just a rapper or you are working for a rapper who is thirsty for attention. Aside the fact that you should not get a drink of such at the expense of another rappers down fall, don't try to get a drink ot it, too, with flimsy ideas about the outstanding M.I.
Yours Sincerely
Saviour Ukpaski (MC UK)
(A real fan of M.I Abaga)

Some of our projects
Animal Center Vught
Following their first animal shop in Kaatsheuvel already new plans were made for the realization of a 2nd branch in Vught. Their goal is clear. The main focus lies on how to deliver great customer experience. In this respect adding a lot of decorative elements was an important aspect for them.
Tuincentrum Leurs
"Develop a new way of selling not only the products of the "Grow your Own'" concept but at the same time also offer the customer an experience". The customer wanted us to create a totally different ambiance that would emphasize the authenticity of the "Grow your Own" activities.
As Waterdrinker is an international wholesaler in flowers, plant, pots and hardware for retailers, wholesalers and garden centres it was a real a challenge for us to give the customer the feeling that he is visiting a consumer store. On the other hand we needed to be aware of the fact that the essence of Waterdrinker lies in selling large volumes.

I'm so behind in making and publishing videos from this summer's vacation. I started yet have only completed Phantasm, Silverwood's magic show.
Located at the entry to the theme park, not Boulder Beach side, Phantasm offers guests a great break from the lines, rides and standing with a magic show that is delightful at any age. We had a group of 5, 4 girls ages 11-12 and then us adults at 39-40 and all enjoyed it. This particular show was preformed by Isaiah Daniels and he preferred fire eating, disappearance acts, floating assistant, collapsing box, and more.
Besides the show, the food offered at the pizzeria was a welcomed changed from eating on the run. If you're in Silverwood make sure to catch the Phantasm show.

The European Union has been accused to trying to slip key components of the ACTA agreement through covert channels.
According to the Independent, a number of controversial provisions contained within the Anti-Counterfeit Trade Agreement were also buried in a trade agreement between the EU and Canada called CETA.
Apparently, if the CETA treaty were ratified then lawmakers would not be able to fully object to ACTA.
"The European Parliament has spoken very loudly. To put back the same provisions in a much larger trade agreement will make it more difficult to reject. If CETA is successful, then one would think that the European Commission would come back and say 'well, you just passed that, so you cannot object to ACTA'," said Professor Michael Geist, the law scholar who discovered the hidden provisions.
Negotiated in secret and only made public after being leaked, ACTA was roundly rejected by the European Parliament after becoming the subject of widespread protests in Europe.
"The crowbarring of ACTA type provisions into CETA shows the will to ignore the democratic process," said the head of the UK Pirate Party, Loz Kaye. "There are legitimate concerns about the enforcement, damages and border control obligations in CETA. The EU and international bodies must start to learn the lessons of the ACTA debacle, and truly engage with citizens."

Kymberli Joye vs. OneUp: "Mercy"
Age: 36 (Adam)/35 (Jerome)
Hometown: North Branch, Michigan (Adam)/Lubbock, Texas (Jerome)
Resident: Detroit, Michigan and New York City (Adam)/New York City (Jerome)
As the only duo this season, Adam and Jerome share more than just their love for music. In New York City, they were cast as love interests in a music video and quickly fell into a real-life relationship. For the past six months, they have been cultivating their act, OneUp, in which they showcase their complementary voices. Gaining acceptance from their friends and family has been rather difficult, but "The Voice" gives them the opportunity to reveal the strength of their talent and relationship.

For many people, no Christmas day is complete without big bowl of Christmas pudding. This traditional Christmas pudding recipe is easy to make and, thanks to the addition of our ground nutmeg and cinnamon, it's packed with enough flavour to ensure everyone will make room for it – no matter how much turkey they've put away.
Place the flour, breadcrumbs, ground almonds, sugar, suet, dried fruits, Spices and salt into a large mixing bowl. Mix them together thoroughly. Beat eggs in a separate basin. Add eggs, fruit zest and juice, the brandy and brown ale to the ingredients in the bowl. Stir the mixture very well, ensuring that the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Grease three 900ml (1½ pint) pudding basins. Fill them with the mixture to within 2.5cm (1'') of the top. Cover each basin with a circle of greaseproof paper, folded and tucked to allow for expansion of the puddings. Cover the paper with an 45.5cm (18'') square of muslin or foil. Tie a length of string several times around the basin to secure the covers. Knot opposite ends of the muslin over the top of the basin.
Place the puddings in a steamer or stand them in covered saucepans of boiling water to come halfway up the sides of the basins. Steam them for 6 hours, topping up the water if necessary.
Allow the puddings to cool. Remove the muslin or foil covers and replace them with clean ones. Store in a dry, cool place. It is not necessary to freeze the puddings.
Steam the puddings for 3 hours before serving decorated with a sprig of holly and accompanied by brandy butter, brandy sauce or cream.

My daughter Rachel and I are off to Ottawa today to pick up a roll top desk that belonged to my grandparents. It has always held very special memories for me. My aunt phoned me a few months ago and asked me if I would like to have it. Needless to say I was over joyed. So today my daughter and I are off to pick it up, she has a veicle that it will fit in. The sun is shining and it should prove to be a fun trip.
Yesterday was a great day we celebrated our friend Channing's 60th, he loved his 68 Nova. He was over joyed at all the decorations on his truck etc. and his gift. Then we went out for dinner to a Greek restaurant that was excellent, I tried moussaka for the first time it was delicious!
