If you've ever picked up a makeup brush then you've probably experienced it: the crooked cat eye, the eyeshadow fallout, the patchy foundation. Bad makeup days are inevitable and they happen to even the most skilled makeup artists. Whether you're running late and need an easy fix for a big oops or you're just starting out applying makeup to clients, here are some insider secrets to correcting those pesky makeup mishaps! Because let's face it, nobody's perfect!
Makeup Mishaps: How To Fix Them!
As a professional makeup artist, one thing I'm always telling my clients is that cotton swabs are the magic wands of the makeup world! They can be SO handy in cleaning up a variety of mess ups.
The classic cat eye for instance. We've all been there. It's too thick or it's uneven or it's smeared. You could use some cleansing water or eye makeup remover, but that could potentially remove too much makeup or leave a residue.
Makeup Mishaps:
Have you ever tried applying a small amount of your foundation primer (one that has dimethicone in it) to a cotton swap to fix that goof? Just roll the swab along the edges of the wing to erase and even it out until you are back to a clean guideline. Then use concealer underneath to give it the sharpness you desire. Magic!
Cotton swabs are also great for those incredibly annoying mascara smudges that happen on the eye lid or on the bridge of the nose. The trick is to resist the urge and wait for those little marks to dry completely. Then use a DRY cotton swab to roll away the unwanted product. Presto!
What about the dreaded eyeshadow fallout? This is when you have too much product on your brush and the powder falls or transfers down onto your under eye area, leaving you with what either looks like a black eye or dark circles!
Makeup Mishaps:
To avoid this, make sure you always TAP OFF your brush before packing shadow onto the eyelid. It's easier to build up color than to buff it away. You can also use a spritz of your favorite makeup setting spray to your brush to help the shadow adhere to the eyelid. But if that darn fallout does happen to grace your cheek, the two best ways to fix it are dry cotton swabs and translucent powder. With minimal shadow, a clean, dry swap should remove the color with ease when gently rolled over the surface of the skin. If you are prone to excessive fallout, you may want to lay down a good, thick layer of translucent powder under your eyes before doing your eyeshadow. Then when fallout does occur, you may use a clean, fluffy brush to simply sweep it away. Or in the worst cases, fold a flat cotton round with a little cleansing water on it and clean it all up before going in with foundation and concealer.
Now that you have some tricks up your sleeves for combating eye makeup mishaps, let's move on to complexion. Nothing's worse than "grabby" foundation, patchy blush or a muddy contour. Often times these things occur due to dry or textured skin or because you are using too much product. If you're half a face in and realize things are not going as planned, fret not. You don't have to remove everything and start over. There's a fix for that!
Makeup Mishaps:
A good failsafe for patchy concealer and foundation is to mix a touch of your favorite hydrating serum, eye cream or dry oil with your base. Changing the formula to better suit your skin can help the product glide more effortlessly over your complexion. If it is still uncooperative, make a damp beauty sponge your best friend. I prefer a brush for initial application but a sponge is an excellent tool for removing excess product and evening out texture. If you have applied too much or things are looking uneven, simple squeeze your beauty sponge under water several times and be sure to ring it out thoroughly or squeeze in a dry towel. Then gently bounce it over the area you are trying to remove or even out foundation. If you have blush or contour that's somehow wreaked havoc on your face, first buff it away with a clean dry sponge or brush. Next add a dab (key word being dab) of your foundation to the beauty blender and pat, pat, pat! You may also use translucent or pigmented powder over top of blush or bronzer to tone it down but do so sparingly. Powder can add texture to the skin so it is best used in areas it is truly needed, not all over.
Sometimes knowing how to avoid a makeup oops is as valuable as knowing how to fix it. I have two big tips I always give to clients struggling with their makeup. One is to make sure that your skin is exfoliated and moisturized before applying anything to it – this includes the eye area and lips. If you think of your face as a canvas for your art, then you will understand why you want a smooth, supple and clean base to start with. Your makeup only looks as good as the skin underneath it, which is why skincare and prep is so important. The second tip is to always do eye makeup before face makeup. Trust me, you'll be glad you did. Eye makeup mistakes are so much easier to fix when you DON'T have primer, foundation, concealer and blush to worry about ruining.
I hope that whether you're learning to perfect your own makeup craft or getting started as a makeup artist, these little tricks will make a big difference in your process. Sometimes being perfect at a skill is unrealistic, but knowing how to correct the imperfections is the next best thing!

Rolling Plains Cash Scam | Next Day Advance loan. Go ahead now.
Essential Tips And Advice Pertaining To Payday Advances
Considering all that consumers are facing in today's economy, it's no wonder Rolling Plains Cash Scam services is such a fast-growing industry. If you find yourself contemplating a payday loan, read on to learn more about them and how they can help get you out of a current financial crisis fast.
If you take out a payday loan, make sure that you can afford to pay it back within one to two weeks. Payday loans should be used only in emergencies, when you truly have no other alternatives. When you take out a payday loan, and cannot pay it back right away, two things happen. First, you have to pay a fee to keep re-extending your loan until you can pay it off. Second, you keep getting charged more and more interest.
When looking for a payday loan vender, investigate whether or not they are a direct lender or an indirect lender. Direct lenders are loaning you their own capitol, whereas an indirect lender is serving as a middleman. The service is probably just as good, but an indirect lender has to get their cut too. This means you pay a higher interest rate.
Always be truthful on your loan application. You may be tempted for one reason or another, but it's illegal and could get you into trouble.
Always comparison shop when taking out any payday loan. You are probably in an emergency situation and feel pressed for both money and time. Regardless, it's important to deliberate carefully before applying for a payday loan. This step will ensure that you don't waste your money paying unnecessary interest.
You must have enough money in your account on the same day your lender plans to collect their payment. Many people don't have a steady income stream. If your deposit fails to complete, you will owe the amount of your payday loan, standard fees and non-payment fees.
Consider all the payday loan options before you choose a payday loan. While most lenders require repayment in 14 days, there are some lenders who now offer a 30 day term that may fit your needs better. Different payday loan lenders may also offer different repayment options, so pick one that meets your needs.
Before taking the plunge and deciding on a payday loan, consider other sources. The interest rates for payday advances are high and if you have better options, try them first. See if your family will loan you the money, or try a traditional lender. Payday advances should really be a last resort.
Consider other options. If you take time to compare payday loans versus personal loans, you might see that there may be other lenders that could give you better rates for cash advance loans. Your credit score as well as the total amount of the loan will be large factors in this decision. If you do your research, you could save a tidy sum.
Hopefully, this article has you well armed as a consumer, and educated about the facts of cash advance Rolling Plains Cash Scam . Just like anything else in the world, there are positives, and negatives. The ball is in your court as a consumer, who must learn the facts. Weigh them, and make the best decision!

Carbon emissions are derived mainly from the building, industrial, and transport sectors. Buildings are responsible for more than 40% of global energy use and for as much as 33% of global greenhouse gas emissions. By the end of 2016, 57.4% of the total population lived in urban areas in China, a dramatic increase from 26% in 1990. It is essential to study and analyze both energy consumption and carbon emissions of buildings. Taking Guangzhou city of China as an example, this study applied a hybrid life cycle assessment approach to quantify both the energy consumption and CO2 emissions throughout the life cycle of an urban residential building. The data was collected from the Guangzhou input–output (IO) table of 2012, Guangzhou Statistical Yearbook of 2013, China Electric Power Yearbook of 2013, and statistical data of the studied building. Results showed that the overall life cycle energy consumption and CO2 (eq.) emissions for the studied building, constructed in 2012, were approximately 72,591.98 GJ and 12,637.32 t, respectively. The largest CO2 (eq.) emission factor was oil and the smallest one was electricity. The CO2 emissions of steel, concrete, brick, and cement together accounted for 76.69% of the total emissions which are related to building materials in the preparation stage. This research not only promotes the construction of eco-cities or eco-communities, but also provides decision makers with comprehensive data on the energy consumption and environmental impacts of residential buildings. The findings are of considerable importance in terms of energy saving and emissions reductions for society as a whole.

Former All Black and rugby sevens legend Eric Rush has signed on to help raise funds for Queenslanders with spinal cord injury as the guest speaker for the upcoming 2018 Classic Wallabies Lunch.
Mr Rush, regarded as one of the world's most notable rugby sevens player, will share stories of his long and illustrious sporting career at the event, which aims to raise money for Spinal Life Australia.
The Classic Wallabies Lunch, organised by former Wallaby great Bill Ross OAM, has been held each year since 2005.
In that time, the event has raised close to $1 million to help improve the quality of life and provide support for Queenslanders with paraplegia or quadriplegia as a result of a spinal cord injury.
"For the last 13 years, the Classic Wallabies Lunch has always been a day of fun, food and laughter," Mr Ross said.
"Eric Rush is well-regarded as an entertaining and motivating speaker so we're very much looking forward to hearing him speak at this year's event.
"We'll also have a panel of sporting legends featuring former Wallabies captains Andrew Slack and Stephen Moore and former Wallaby Dan Crowley.
"It's all for a good cause too – I've been involved with Spinal Life Australia as an ambassador since 2002 and have seen first-hand the great work they do with people with spinal cord damage.
"Living with a spinal cord injury can be a challenging and expensive process and being able to access quality support is important."
The 2018 Classic Wallabies Lunch will be held on Friday, 20 April at the Pullman Hotel in the Brisbane CBD and will feature a three-course lunch, drinks and an afternoon of entertainment.
Award-winning radio host, best-selling author and comedian Steve Haddan will be the emcee for the event.

We're currently doing an evidence review for a Combined Authority, and one stat (of many) stood out and made us reflect on the changing structure of the business development workforce. Of about 77,100 new jobs in the Combined Authority area created in 2012-16, c47% were accounted for by 'atypical' work (i.e. self-employed, freelance, contractor, temporary etc).
At first glance this seemed a significant and surprising share of jobs growth. But reflecting on business development, since 2010, we have seen many public service providers slim down their internal business development resource and shift to a blended model of in-house and external support.
What are the drivers for this change in strategy?
- Good business development people are expensive, so it's better to reduce your fixed overheads and shift to more flexible resource.
- The big ticket pipeline is precarious – multiple delays across multiple departments and an unstable government means a long term investment in business development is difficult to justify (case in point is the recent business development redundancies at two of the largest outsourcers).
- There is an increased need to bring more specialist skills (bid writing, bid management, commercial model development, solution design) to the table, as procurement processes have matured (or become more complex!).
But what about the business development folks that are now self-employed, freelancers, associates? A good proportion of the brilliant business development people we've worked with over the years now fall into this atypical camp. They enjoy the binary nature of the work (less politics, good job done = more work); the flexibility to choose who they work with; the good day rates; and the ability to do varied, interested work with clients that suits their interests.
It is probably also true that they enjoy jumping off the 'bid carousel', so often a trait of large central bid/proposal teams. So it's a win-win right? It can certainly feel like it, but perhaps we're looking at the gig economy through the lens of the well paid gigs. What about new people entering the business development profession? Ten to fifteen years ago, organisations were recruiting and training up graduates (that are now industry leaders) and that is frankly very difficult to achieve within the atypical model. It will be interesting to see how the next generation of business development professionals achieve their career progression.

Success Parking Israel Gives Parking Tips for Safety and Consideration
Success Parking Israel, under Tsahi Merkur, is here to give some simple tips and rules on safe parking and the ethics involved in parking. Israel is full of cities which have huge problems with parking, and following the tips and guidelines found here will assist you and other parkers.
The Obvious Rules of Parking First and Foremost
You should never park in a spot which is private and marked as such or in the fire lane. These should be clear to every driver. Moreover, handicapped spots are for those that are disabled and nobody should ever take up one of these spots, unless they really have a handicap. Even the drivers of handicapped, when alone, should refrain from taking up any of these spots.
Parallel Parking Done Properly
If you need to parallel park, always make sure that you are not blocking in the car in front of you or behind you. Just as you wouldn't want to be able to be stuck in your parking spot, you don't want others to be either. This is just consideration for others. You also should not park parallel to another parallel car, where the first car is not able to get out at all.
Safety when Leaving a Parking Space
As a rule of thumb, a driver should always look in the direction the car is moving. When backing out of a parking space, make sure that your eyes are mostly looking at the back of your car with a glance to the front. Children can be difficult to see, so can animals, so make sure that you are driving slowly and keeping your eyes in the direction your car is moving. So many accidents could have been prevented by this simple idea.
If you are waiting for a driver to leave the spot, make sure that you are signaling, so other drivers do not get stuck waiting behind you. If it seems like it will take a while, use your hand to show the other drivers to pass your car.
Etiquette Rules in Parking
- Make sure that you are only parked in one spot and not in the middle or over the line where your car is taking up more than one spot.
- Make sure when you park next to another car that you do not need to hit or scratch their car to get into or out of your own. Make sure also that the car next to yours will have ample room to open their door.
- Pay attention to all parking signs and only park in places that are legal for your car.
- If you are a motorcyclist, do not take up a spot with your bike, the cars have no other place to park, but you do.
- Don't steal parking spots. If someone is waiting for a spot, do not rush your car in and steal the spot. This is not only disrespectful to the driver that was waiting, but can be very dangerous, since it leads to rage and can become confrontational.
Hopefully, everyone will follow these rules and etiquette, making all of our lives a little bit less stressful.

SAN PEDRO, Calif. — Dec. 16, 2010 — Building on the success of the Clean Truck Program (CTP), the Los Angeles Harbor Commission has approved two measures to strengthen its enforcement of the program and further help reduce emissions. First, the Harbor Commission approved a measure to incorporate Class 7 trucks, which are slightly smaller than Class 8 trucks, into the CTP.1 Second, the Harbor Commission approved a measure to strengthen enforcement against "dray-offs," a practice which involves switching cargo from a CTP-compliant truck to a non-compliant truck within the HarborDistrict or adjacent public streets.
"Since its inception two years ago, the Clean Truck Program has resulted in significantly cleaner air in the region and more than 90 percent of gate moves at our terminals are now handled by compliant trucks," said Port of Los Angeles Executive Director Geraldine Knatz, Ph.D. "By closing loopholes in the program, the action by the Harbor Commission today strengthens the Clean Truck Program and helps provide for its long-term sustainability."
The Port's Clean Truck Program, in effect since Oct. 1, 2008, is modeled after the California Air Resources Board's (CARB) state Drayage Truck Rule. Both the State's and the Port's programs originally focused only on Class 8 heavy-duty drayage trucks, since they conducted most of the drayage at ports and rail yards across the State.
Because the average loaded container weighs about 30,000 lbs by itself, and the truck tractors weigh between 10,000 lbs and 12,000 lbs, Class 7 trucks cannot lawfully move most cargo to and from the Port. These vehicles can move lighter loads, and empty containers or bare chassis, though movement of the empties and bare chassis was originally handled by Class 8 vehicles. This has changed over the past 11 months.
Since the start of 2010, Class 7 truck operation at the Port of Los Angeles has increased significantly, with an average truck engine age of 1998. That increase coincided with a Jan. 1, 2010 progressive ban on Class 8 trucks where engine model years older than 2004 were either banned outright or subject to an engine retrofit requirement. Under the new tariff measure adopted by the Harbor Commission, operators of Class 7 trucks will be subject to the same access restrictions as Class 8 trucks, and they will have until July 1, 2011 to either purchase an engine retrofit or new vehicle in order to continue operating at the Port.
Additionally, the Harbor Commission modified the Clean Truck Program tariff so that switching cargo from compliant trucks to banned trucks or to avoid payment of Clean Truck Fees, a practice otherwise known as "dray-offs", is now banned anywhere in the Harbor District. Violations of the dray-off restrictions are punishable as misdemeanors with fines of up to $1,000 and/or imprisonment in County Jail for up to six months, and avoided Clean Truck Fees will be assessed. Additionally, Licensed Motor Carriers may also be found to be found in default of their Concession Agreements with the Port.
CARB is considering similar action to amend its State Drayage Truck Rule to include regulation of Class 7 vehicles and to address the dray-off issue. CARB is scheduled to vote on similar measures at its two day meeting starting on Thursday, December 16.
The Port of Los Angeles is America's premier port and has a strong commitment to developing innovative strategic and sustainable operations that benefit the economy as well as the quality of life for the region and the nation it serves. As the leading seaport in North America in terms of shipping container volume and cargo value, the Port generates 919,000 regional jobs and $39.1 billion in annual wages and tax revenues. A proprietary department of the City of Los Angeles, the Port is self-supporting and does not receive taxpayer dollars.
The Port of Los Angeles – A cleaner port. A brighter future.

Earlier, grandmas could design baby dresses really well as they had all the time for doing so. But nowadays even grandmas are busier than ever, or separated, and hence, choosing clothes for the baby is done by the parents, mainly. So, when you are looking for some nice designer baby clothing items, which will adorn your bundle of joy, then you will have to look for versatile cloth stores selling baby designer clothes - www.tinypeople.com.au.
Choose a site that offers the widest range of baby clothes
When it comes to designer clothing for the baby, there are many varied choices, which will actually make you happy and confused both. Happy, because you have so many things to choose from, as this will keep on popping up images in your mind about how your dear doll will look in the clothing. Confused, because baby clothing items come in many irresistible colours, designs and cuts that you will be confused as to which one to choose. But, then again, shopping for the baby is always exciting. One thing often budges the head, and that is the price or budget. You all know it well, that shopping for the kids is expensive. But when you choose a smart online store for baby designer clothes – www.tinypeople.com.au, then you can buy clothes with a reasonable price tag.
Not only that, these days, people really don't get the time to shop out. If you squeeze out some time, you would better go for a movie, picnic or prefer socializing. Moreover, why go and spend hours on choosing clothes in some retail store, when you can do the same from the comfort of your home at your leisure? The online stores give you the freedom to select from a wide range of clothing, starting from the caps to socks.
When to get designer baby dresses
You don't get designer clothes for the baby to simply get your baby dressed while you are out. You also get them for gifting purposes. When you are going to a birthday party, then also you can buy exciting baby dresses. Again when you are going to a baby shower, then also you can get nice and cute new born baby dresses.
With the new trends emerging, any good online store, which sells baby clothes will offer you great designer clothing for the boy and the girl. Whether you are looking for onesies, or a top, or just a bottom wear, or footwear, socks or leggings; you will get all from one single destination or websites such as baby designer clothes – www.tinypeople.com.au when you select it right.
Things to check for
While you shop, always remember to check the fabric and quality. While designer clothes are meant to be nice and beautiful, beauty should not be the last thing, and rather the feel of the fabric and comfort have to be the first things when it's for the infants. High quality cotton and wool are considered the most apt for babies, and when your store offers such quality, you can be very sure about getting your supplies from them.

Gresley Rovers keeper Bob Aston is poised to dramatically reclaim his first team spot in time for Saturday's FA Vase fifth round tie at Knowsley.Aston, out since December 15 with a broken thumb, returns to first team action against Shepshed Charterhouse at the Moat Ground tonight (7.30pm) after two reserve team outings.
Coach Steve Dolby said this morning: "Bob has had the all-clear from the doctor to play tonight and we will decide after the game between him and Tony More for Saturday's game.
"He's still got a steel pin in his thumb but he has put back his operation to have it removed by a week to make himself available for the Vase game."
Gresley are expected to field a changed line-up for tonight's Evans Halshaw Floodlit Cup game and name a 15-man squad which includes a mystery striker called Gamble.
No-one at the club appeared to know the player's Christian name this morning but Dolby said: "He's a centre forward who played for British Universities last season."

To the Editor:
Re "Charter Schools Deserve Leeway on Hiring" (editorial, Nov. 4):
The teaching profession rests on a longstanding, rapidly growing body of research from multiple disciplines, including educational pedagogy, social science, economics, cognitive and developmental psychology, and neuroscience.
Like medicine, nursing and law, teaching depends on a foundation of knowledge and skills that need to be learned and practiced under expert guidance. You apparently believe otherwise.
Under new rules that permit charter schools to certify their own teachers, would-be teachers will receive insufficient hours of instruction and minimal supervised practice. That doesn't exactly raise the bar for quality teachers to serve families and children in charter schools effectively.
Worse, the thinking behind the new rules — that leading a class requires only surface knowledge, for example, on how children learn — communicates the view that teaching is an entry-level, nonprofessional job. Perhaps this perception contributes to the teaching shortage used to justify fast-track approaches to preparation.
If we want to attract the best teachers into all of our public schools, we shouldn't lower professional standards. Rather, we should pursue better approaches to preparation, including high-quality teacher residency programs, and equip teachers with the knowledge, skills and experience they need to flourish.
The writer is president of Teachers College, Columbia University.

[ NOte : Just to be asked to contribute a piece for the Pistang Pilipino 2010 sa North Shore ( Auckland ) Labour Weekend event ( 22nd-24th Oct ) is certainly an honour for us ; whether or not it's actually used we don't know, but it appears below. We did our best to stay close to the theme of capturing what it means to be a Kiwi + Pinoy. Thanks for reading ! ]
THERE are many emotional highs and few lows when one contemplates what it means to be a Kiwi + Pinoy — or as more popularly known these days, a Kinoy.
Is it when one is granted, after a dramatic Work-to-Residence period, life-changing Permanent Residence (PR) status, the crowning achievement of every Kinoy migrant?
Is it when one receives the acknowledgment of both Kiwis and fellow guest workers in the workplace, crystallizing the overachieving role played by many kabayan in various fields of endeavor in the Land of the Long White Cloud ?
Is it the extended blessings enjoyed by every Filipino family whenever one of their own marries a Kiwi, who is only too willing to share the benefits and benevolence of a First World country with his new relatives?
Since the answer to all of these is undoubtedly yes, we can't help but select instead a defining moment that links all who seek a second life as members of one of the most hospitable nations in the First World.
What captures the moment, as one searches through the personal adventure of heartaches, dreams and hopes towards being a Kinoy?
Again, it could be a thousand and one scenarios, too many to mention.
Attaining an NZ driver's license, a first Kiwi home, or even a first child born on Aotearoa shores? Just three of the numerous benchmarks that indelibly mark our album of memories. But do they define one's existence here?
Arrayed against the good memories are the painful ones : for every permanent resident status awarded are ten rejections, equals 10 kabayan going home starting from scratch.
For every work permit granted are probably a dozen expired and unrenewed, sending home our frustrated countrymen despite excellent work and an even more admirable work ethic.
And everyone knows that not every mixed-culture marriage between Kiwi and Pinoy ends in permanent residence. All the signs of love and commitment must be there, lest the institution of marriage be abused for less romantic ends.
Now that we have the wide-screen view, having witnessed the peaks and valleys of the Kinoy migrant experience, we ask anew what moment for us defines being Kinoy?
It's a bit more abstract than all those previously described, and it can happen any point in the migration timeline.
But it seems to be this : when you discover that you are no longer just part of your homeland, but evolving into someone part of a new land; not merely Pinoy but not fully a New Zealander; not yet a transplant but no longer rooted in the land of your birth… this particular moment in time, whenever it may be, defines your existence as a Kinoy.
It is being part of both worlds, yet laying claim to none. For that is the blessing and curse of migration, of coming and going, leaving and arriving. More particularly, it is the essence of being Kinoy, a mixture that we don't mind at all.
** ** ** ** **
The interesting part of our Kinoy adventure is that we have yet to reach our goal. For three years running, we have held a work permit, but not fortunate enough to deserve permanent resident status.
No rush though. Just as success is a journey and not a destination, so is migration. If being Kinoy means taking Life's best shots and taking advantage of every break that goes our way, so be it.
There is a confident sign that aspiring to be a Kinoy is consistent with the Pinoy spirit of migration. This is the fact that despite the ambiguous policy adopted by the NZ government, our numbers continue to increase. Each of the 40,000 Filipino souls in the land of our hosts serves as an inspiration for more to come. Like an idea whose time has come, Kinoy growth is strong and for the moment, has no limits.
God bless each and every one of the 40,000 Kinoys ; may there be 40,000 more. Mabuhay !
[ Noel B is a work permit holder currently based in Wellington, but still holds out hope that some day, the permit will transform into a Returning Resident's Visa. In the meantime, he thanks every Kiwi, co-migrant and kabayan who has taken time to enrich his life by showing him their personal version of New Zealand. Maraming salamat po! ]

Maintaining Honor Under Code
Breaking Code
March 9, 2018
The High School Party: a common and cliché scene. It's likely that a few of you have experienced it a handful of times, and it is equally likely that you've witnessed the extent to which teen alcohol and drug use are popularized by the student population.
But just as a significant portion high school students have experienced the famed high school house party, a significant portion of the Shorewood High School student body is also held to a higher standard of self-management. This isn't the higher standard that one is held to by their parent's expectations, or their own morals, however. This is a legally binding contract. This is the Leadership Code of Conduct, better known by many as the Honor Code or simply the Code.
While on Code, students can't be caught participating in any illegal activity other than noncriminal traffic offenses, they can't be present where illegal activity is occurring, and they are held to obey any rules that may be published in the School's handbook.
Students who are a part of ASB, a sports captain, on performance dance, or participate in a number of many other activities at the school are required to sign this document along with their parents. If they are caught in even the smallest violation of the Code, they risk losing their position in school activities as well as any combination of short and long-term suspension.
"It's hard to stand up and say no to peers and a lot of coaches and leaders of different groups felt like that if that became a requirement and that if the leaders signed it, it would somehow give them an out," explained athletic director Vicki Gorman. In other words, Gorman explained that the code was put in place by the administration to give the students who sign it a way to avoid peer pressures without the guilt. She went on to say "I think it's fair because you don't have to sign it if you're not going to go through with it."
But despite the school's best efforts to use the Code as a tool to maintain certain standards of student excellence, many students feel that these efforts fall vastly too short. Mostly, students are concerned about the effect that the Code has on the practice of acting as the designated driver and how this will affect rates of students participating in drunk driving in Shoreline.
In addition to the students that have signed the leadership code of conduct, students in many other school activities are also mandated to sign different codes of conduct. All athletes, for example, must sign the athletic code, which binds them to a similar, yet a less severe set of rules for the entirety of their sports season.
Imagine being at that cliché party once again. More than likely you pictured the drunk antics of the teenagers surrounding you. It is the instinct of many to help their intoxicated friends out in this situation, and many would want to keep their friends safe and possibly even offer them a sober ride home. But there is a nuanced problem that students on code face when confronted with this desire to help their peers stay safe.
The third clause of the Leadership Code of conduct states that "I agree to immediately remove myself from any situation where illegal activities are occurring, or where other persons engaging in conduct that violates school or district rules. I will report any situation that poses a danger to the health or safety of other students or myself or that may be a violation of law, school or district rules, and/or this code of conduct." So it becomes expected not only for the leaders of the school to leave at any sign of underage drinking or drug use, but it is also implied that they are not allowed to drive others who may be intoxicated home safely, even if they are completely sober themselves. In addition to this, it is also an expectation that they report their peers to school officials if they see them participating in what is considered to be against the Code. Essentially, they are required to become an extension of the administration in the privacy of the student world.
One senior student who had signed the code themselves expressed that "A lot of people I know just go to [parties] to drive people home and be like the [designated drivers] because they're trying to keep people safe and going against that I feel is really stupid because really they're being responsible and they're caring for people. Knowing the school doesn't want people to even do that, I feel like that's really stupid and messed up,". This student does not stand alone in their opinion. Many students seem to be under the impression that the code they are obligated to sign is a more of a hindrance to the safety of the student body than a tool of abstinence.
Another senior student explained how they felt about the real consequences of the code. "In any situation, you are not allowed to intervene when there is drunk driving or someone just needs to get home. You're not allowed to be a good friend," following with "Our issue with it personally is that you're not allowed to even be there. So if you wanted to be a designated driver that's considered breaking the code, which is not fair especially as people in higher positions on cheer or in DECA or on ASB or a sports captain are seen as leaders and as someone people can rely on. If you can't be relied on to be driven home then that's an issue for me." These students feel that their hearts are in the right places as they seek simply to protect their fellow students from the perils of drunk driving. They are looking to help others, and are being stopped in their tracks by a document that they signed in order to officially represent the best values a leader can possess at this school.
Of the students who had at one time signed the code, when interviewed, many students couldn't recall what the Code entailed or was misinformed about what the Code held them to. There was a visible trend in their responses: the students that were more aware of what the rules of the code were, were the students who had been in trouble with the code in the past for offering safe rides home to others who had been participating in underage drinking and/or smoking. This points to the possibility of a misunderstanding of the severity of the code at the point of signing and perhaps an inadequacy in the education of the terms of the code.
Throughout the interview process, not one interviewee believed that the majority of students followed the rules of the code. "I think they sign it because they feel they need to," said one Junior student who had also signed the code, following with "I still think, no matter what you say, people will still sign it just to sign it, without actually intending on following it."
Scores of students expressed their worry over the culture that the code and the administration encourage by using this set of rules in this school. "The way that things are handled at this school promotes people lying," told another student. They feel that if the administration does not want them to be offering rides home to their intoxicated peers, that they must lie in order to protect their friends and their classmates, as well as their own elected or earned positions within the school. What they seek at the most basic and genuine level is to keep others out of harm's way and they believe that the rules of the leadership code of conduct that they are roped into signing, are impeding them from doing even the most simple acts of peer service.

Happy Thursday my creatures of undeniable greatness! Welcome to the 2nd day of the best year of your life! Today's Daily Word is dedicated to consistency! The secret to attaining your dreams and aspirations is no secret at all... If you believe in yourself and work hard towards your dream there is absolutely no doubt that you will receive it! The problem is that many of us put time limits on our dreams so if it doesn't happen when we say it will we either give up or compromise. Criss Jami once said "Most people either compromise or drop their greatest talents and start running after, what they perceive to be, a more reasonable success, and somewhere in between they end up with a discontented settlement. Safety is indeed stability, but it is not progression." Make this year, the year that you refuse to be regular... The year that you tell yourself that you will stick to your dream and achieve it no matter the obstacles and no matter the circumstance! As the saying goes.... You don't drown by falling you drown by staying there! Don't drown your dreams away! Be consistent and stick to it by all means!! NOTHING CAN STOP YOU BUT YOU!! -Ash'Cash

Finding out that Mike had Myeloma was like opening the curtains one morning to find the house was floating in the middle of the Atlantic. Being mostly positive people (look I'm a woman and I'm allowed to stray occasionally) we have decided to seek out the advantages of Mike's affliction. As they say on tv, "In no particular order."
- I now have a really easy way of distinguishing between he who I live with and he who I divorced. There is Myeloma Mike and there is the other Mike. Yes I know, what are the odds on marrying two Mikes. At least I didn't have to worry about talking in my sleep. ;)
- We have made virtual friends with a whole bunch of interesting, mostly insane people who seem to think that life with myeloma can still be humorous. There is always someone's blog to have a giggle at, or more precisely, pmsl.
- From Mike's point of view, he can now shoot the parking warden who gives him a ticket for being 30 seconds late. His reasoning being, that he might be dead by the time the case gets to court! Please note, Mike isn't actually a violent man, but he can dream!
- Mike has life assurance, so if he doesn't last, I get to have my world cruise. Actually we both do (have life assurance I mean), so it doesn't actually matter who pops their clogs first, I might still beat him to it. (We're a very competitive couple, you should see us playing Scrabble!!!)
- It has given us both a good kick up the proverbial and instead of complaining about the weather, we just dress for it and go out and enjoy life any way. Funny how it all looks so much better when you think it might be in short supply.
So with all those paddles and the odd bloggy lifeline, we should be able to survive.

Welcome to the Year 6 Homepage
Welcome back to school! We hope that you had an enjoyable Christmas holidays. Thank you for all of our lovely presents!
Our aim in Year 6 is to prepare the children academically, socially and emotionally for the all important move to Secondary School. We have an established and extensive transition programme with all local Secondary Schools and we are committed to working in partnership with them to ensure our children make a smooth and successful move as they leave Montgomerie Primary School.
We look to our Year 6 children to provide positive role models for the rest of the school, letting them grow as they take on responsibility for their own learning and independence. We encourage them to strive for important key positions in school such as Head Girl and Head Boy, Headteacher prefect or even a representative of the Robus Academy Group.
Many parents will be aware of the National Curriculum Tests that children in Year 6 sit in May each year. We feel we put in the right amount of preparation for the SATs, with every child encouraged to do their best and be proud of themselves. We would encourage parents to support their child with their SATs preparation and that they fully support their child at home with the completion of all of their homework, reading and educational studies as they prepare to end their primary education and move on to grow and develop in the next stage of their lives.
All key information, including resources for supporting learning and weekly homework can be accessed from this page.
Please feel free to make an appointment should you wish to discuss any aspect of your child's learning.

"Know that when you get one of us, you get ALL of us to help create a unique Virginia Beach experience!" A favorite motto of Sally: "Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine."
A Virginia Beach native, Sally says hospitality is in her blood. From her college years at the University of Virginia, where she led historical and prospective tours and played lacrosse, she leapt into CVB sales and began building a reputation for fierce commitment to delivering what's promised – and then some. Sally joined the Beach team in 1995 and quickly became instrumental in assisting with the city's transformation into a year-round meeting destination with the advent of the new Virginia Beach Convention Center. Her professional passion is evident in her service to the Virginia Society of Association Executives, which honored her with an Associate of the Year award. A lifelong learner, Sally earned CMP certification in 2010.
The child of two musicians, Sally is creative and an avid supporter of the arts and a sports and exercise enthusiast. When she's not leading the Virginia Beach team's sales and marketing efforts, you'll find Sally on the water with her husband, two daughters and the rest of her clan. She's a licensed boater with special skills in the kitchen and a flair for Middle Eastern cuisine – her hummus is a big favorite among family and friends.

She has served on the board of the Society of Government Meeting Professionals and has learned to fearlessly and gracefully lead demanding clients.
Linda has a passion for physical fitness – though she claims her knees, hips, shoulders, back and toes are complaining, she's participated in seven competitive run/walks in the last 10 months. She is currently fostering animals for the Military Pets Foster Project, a program that cares for pets while their owners are deployed. You can find Linda walking her four dogs, gardening, swimming and occasionally slowing down to read on the beach.

Mobile Game Handle Market Is Projected to Grow at a Substantial Rate by 2025
The global market for mobile game handle has been gaining substantially from the significant rise in the younger generation, who are extremely interested in mobile and video games. The rise in disposable income of consumers, allowing them to own high-end mobiles, is another important factor that has been boosting the growth of this market considerably. The market, however, have held a limited share over the past few years on account of the high popularity of gaming consoles and PC games. The availability of limited storage and space in mobiles is likely to further hamper this market in the years to come.
The worldwide market for mobile game handle reports its presence across Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and Latin America. Among these, Asia Pacific has surfaced as the leading regional market and is expected to remain seated on this position in the near future. The significant advancements in the field of telecommunication in Asian economies, such as China, Japan, and India is the main factor behind the remarkable rise of the Asia Pacific mobile game handle market.
Mobile games are a kind of video game played in any smartphone, smartwatch, personal digital assistant (PDA), tablet computers, and in featured phones. Accelerating demand for mobile games is expected to expand the growth prospects of the mobile game handle market during the forecast period.

In recent years, a rising population base coupled with rise in disposable income is driving the demand for mobile games. Asia Pacific economies such as China, Japan, India, and South Korea are experiencing surging demand for mobile games. This region has witnessed increasing investment in telecommunication networks and rapid advancement in telecommunication infrastructure drives the growth prospects of the mobile game market as well. Increasing internet penetration in remote areas also drives the demand for mobile games, thus projecting high growth prospects for the mobile game handle market over the forecast period. Mobile game handles help to control the speed and movement of mobile games, and thus gamers find it easier to use these handles while playing games on electronic gadgets. With the rising spending on electronic gadgets, the market for mobile game handles witnesses an escalating growth rate in recent years.
However, mobile games tend to have a limited platform owing to the popularity of PC or console games. One of the major constraints of the mobile game platform is its limited storage and space which is also restraining the growth prospects of the mobile game handle market. Moreover, there is growing demand for augmented reality based gaming platforms. In case of augmented reality based games, developers provide the facility to play the game in innovative designs and over visual spectacle. Hence, the advent of augmented and virtual reality platforms is set to limit the scope of the mobile game handle market over the forecast period.
With the gradual innovation of Android and iphone operating system (iOS), the mobile game market is expected to witness flourishing demand over the forecast period. Apple iphones come up with different features and these features are added to mobile game programming also, thus making these mobile games more attractive. Mobile game operators incorporate innovative features to Google Android phones and this factor is likely to augment the market prospect of mobile games over the forecast period. Rising demand for mobile games is thus likely to expand the growth prospects of the mobile game handle market over the forecast period.
The mobile game handle market is segmented into three segments on the basis of type and the segments are Android handle, iOS handle, and Microsoft Windows handle. Android handles are projected to hold the largest share in the mobile game handle market over the forecast period. Owing to low prices and their user friendly nature, Android phones have secured the largest position in terms of sales volume in recent years. However, developers bring several varieties of iphone operating system apps that are developed in recent years and that promotes the market demand for iOS handles during the forecast period.
On the basis of geographic locations, the market for mobile game handle is segmented into five regions: North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa (MEA), and Latin America. Asia Pacific held the largest market share in recent years and this regional segment is expected to retain its dominance over the forecast period. Japan, China, and India are some of the major countries in this region witnessing massive advancement in telecommunications network and that drives the demand for mobile game handle over the forecast period.

About Me
Hello and thank you for stopping by my site! I love photographing all kinds of things, but I specialize in documenting lifetime moments. I have a BA and a MFA in Fine Art Photography and have been studying and appreciating art my entire life.
Newborn babies, adorable children, beautiful families, lovely engagements, incredible weddings, and any other special events that you want frozen in time, is what I love to do!
I specialize in natural light photography, but I have a studio available upon request for an extra fee. I primarily work in the Orange County and LA county area, but I am always willing to travel!
I like to encourage people to be themselves. I am less about that "perfect pose" and more about getting the real you to come through the lens. My photo shoots are personal and fun. It's an experience to not only document your special life moment, but to really make sure I capture the real YOU!
When I'm not taking photos, you can find me in my garden, cooking and eating delicious food, walking my dogs, enjoying outdoor activities, dancing and practicing yoga. I love hanging out with my family and friends and travel as much as I can! You can follow all of my adventures on my INSTAGRAM and FACEBOOK.
Customers of Ashley French Photography say:
"I just received the pictures back and I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER! The pictures are perfect and high quality. I recommend using Ashley French for any of your photography needs. My sister mentioned that she would use Ashley for their future family pictures and I would definitely use her again. Thank you Ashley!"
"With a swift turnaround time, professional demeanor, and beautiful photographs, I would absolutely recommend Ashley French Photography to anyone in need of engagement, wedding photos, or family portraiture throughout both Northern and Southern California."
"Wow! So impressed with Ashley...we recently had her into our home to take photos of our family. She was professional, punctual, personal and really great with our three young children. She moved quickly from set-up to set-up, keeping my kids engaged - not an easy task! She turned the images around quickly and we were amazed, they were beautiful. And there were so many. I teared up as I looked at them. I was so grateful to have this time of our lives captured. Now we just have the hard task of figuring out which ones to frame! I can't wait to have Ashley back to take photos of our family again."
"I've used Ashley for multiple events and portraits for my home. Her work is absolutely beautiful! She gets shots you didn't know were possible and in every picture she takes there's so much life. She's also very professional and great with young children. Ill never use anyone else!"
Call me today and book your own Photography Experience!
I look forward to hearing from you!

One of the reasons why I dig walnut chunks out of any brownie I eat is because, having been baked and left to stew within it, the nut has typically reached an inevitable state of sogginess. Thus, in the making of my own brownies, I made it a point to candy the pecans (a far superior nut to the walnut in my tasting) to ensure a good crunch.
brownie recipe I
used is identical to that found in Leite's Culinaria, save the addition of the candied nuts, and a slight tweaking
of the proportions to make one 30cm by 30cm tray. You can see very
clearly the effect of a few good minute's stirring on the batter (I have
included a photo before and after).
played a little with the
amount of sugar used in the candying as I didn't want a jaw breaking
sugar crust, but had to bear in mind that some of the sugar would
dissolve during the baking. A ratio of 2:3 by weight of sugar to pecans
was what I was happy with. I'm no master at candying nuts but David Lebovitz has written up a rather handy guide. Simply caramelizing the
sugar and pouring it over hot nuts does not work. Use as many pecans as
your generosity allows.
a completely separate note, and one I feel I have to raise as you
scrutinize my many photos of the brownie concoction process, I have a
pointy bone to pick with queue etiquette.
Queue jostling is a recurring cause of grief in my life. I claim an
expansive personal space and am ever too aware of encroaching subjects.
In large crowds, or where there is limited space available, I have no
choice but to accept that people are doomed to brush by me. However, to
have my space intruded upon by a great hulking brute exuding sweat, a
real problem in the summer, while standing in a queue seems absolutely
unnecessary when space abounds.
Fortunately I have a few remedies to deal with this.
Shopping bags serve as great little barricades. Or, if I have a handy
rucksack with me, every now and then I would suddenly spin around, as if
something had caught my eye, allowing my bag to clear an acceptable
berth. Yawning and stretching is a pretty good tactic too, especially if
you 'unconsciously' direct your outstretched arms towards a face. Or
just direct their attention to bits of your person (elbows perhaps) that
is especially close to them (like a boxer does with his jabbing hand)
and the offenders tend to leave a little more room.
Nevertheless it still begets the question why some people insist on standing right up close behind me in a
queue? Surely they can not think that if they are standing closer to the
front of the queue the waiting time is less even if the number of
people before them stays the same. Or do they think that nudging themselves along
as tight as sardines would somehow make the queue move along faster? It
all seems pointless to me. As a polite person in a queue, there is
little you can do to be served sooner.
There is the
space argument of course, and truly in some queues, squeezing together
is required for throughway to be maintained. However, a case in point
would be while I queuing to check-in on my way back from France
recently. The hall was vast yet the individual behind me insisted on
shuffling himself and his luggage so close behind me, in complete
disregard for the marked line behind which he should have stood, that he
bopped me with his skis and I could feel my baby hairs ruffling under
his breath.
Move back smelly man! And yes, I am one of
those people who heartily approve of glaring bright yellow lines marking
out the boundaries of a queue. But really, sidling so close to the fellow ahead all seems so pushy and in the end to no
effect, so why do it?

Updates soon to come!
