I have been training in Muay Thai since 2011. I started at Lowkick Berlin, with Gisa Schraml and Ruth Waldeyer. The gym soon became my second home, and that hasn’t changed since. I just love the art of movement in Muay Thai and the feeling of learning something new every time you train, setting free loads of energy- that’s the feeling I want to pass on.
I started working as a coach at Lowkick and in other (self-organised) gyms and contexts in 2013. Since 2014 I’ve been part of the team that organizes the annual feminist Muay Thai bootcamp for FLTI* at Burg Lutter. In 2016, CaRo. and I founded Sidekick Leipzig. In 2016, I trained at the Pettonpung Gym in Thailand and at the Sit Je Mam Gym / Thailand in 2019.
I find it very important to help create feminist safe spaces in which people can train in the Martial Arts in an atmosphere of solidarity.
Coaching licences: Class C trainer license “Health and Fitness” and “Sport for Senior Citizens”; “Preventive Spinal Gymnastics” (class B licence), certificate: “Posture and Movement through Complete Body Training”
I have always loved sports and have tried out all kinds of things in the past.
From 2010-2014 I regularly trained in Muay Thai at Lowkick e.V. in Berlin, as well as occasionally training at Rapace Berlin and in the Santai Gym in Thailand. I was part of the team that founded the Feminist Thai-Kickboxing Camp for Women, Lesbians, Trans* and Inter* in 2011 and helped organisze it thru 2016. I was a coach for Muay Thai, Conditioning and Girls’ Training at Lowkick from 2012-2017. In 2019 I trained at the Sit Je Mam, Santai and Manop Gyms in Thailand for a month.
In the first years I was in training a lot myself, which then gave way to coaching more than training since around 2014— I love both.
Coaching licences: Class C trainer licences “Training Kids and Young Adults” and “Health and Fitness”, Class B trainer licence “Preventive Spinal Gymnastics”, certificates for “Posture and Movement through Complete Body Training”, “Pilates” and “official BLACKROLL© trainer”
I am agender and do not use a pronoun like “she/her” or “he/his”. Please refer to me by gender neutral pronouns or use any one or both of my names (“Ro./Caro.”) instead.
For a long time, sports were just something you had to do at school to me. Something stamped under the pressure of performance, people comparing their bodies in the changing rooms, role models, all that.
This impression changed completely when I discovered Lowkick Berlin and their way of training in a relaxed & more mindful atmosphere in a feminist environment in 2010. Since then, Muay Thai has become a fixed point in my life, regularly pushing my body and mind to its limits and beyond, spawning a level of concentration hardly ever surpassed. In 2013 I started Boxing training in addition to Muay Thai. In 2013/14 I gained my first experiences as a Girls’ trainer at “Mädchenzentrum Wilde Hütte” and at the Alfred-Nobel-school.
I have been training in Leipzig since 2014 now.
I’m happy to be part of a club whose pronounced goal it is to empower people, not giving a sh* about body ideals and undriven by competetiveness.
I started Kickboxing at Seitenwechsel Berlin e.V. in 2012. After I moved away from Berlin I found it difficult to find a club I wanted to train at; The town I had moved to only had mixed clubs, and I always found myself to be the only woman in a testosterony and sexist environment. So when I moved to Leipzig and found Sidekick I was really happy to have found my club and changed from Kickboxing to Muay Thai, which I much prefer now.
I also train in Modern Dance (since 2002) and -when I have time- love to go surfing.
I want our trainings to give people more self-confidence and inner (and outer :)) strength for their everyday lives. I’m really glad Sidekick exists, creating a safe space where all kinds of different people can train together in a happy and relaxed atmosphere, where things like what you look like or what gender you identity with just don’t play a part at all. Yay!
Coaching licensees: Class C trainer license “Health and Fitness” , trainer license “Progressive Muscle Relaxation (Jacobsen)”, Voice & Body Language coach since 2010
I wasn’t really that interested in Muay Thai at the beginning, I was just looking for an alternative to jogging around Berlin and its gray pavements. So it came that I went to conditioning classes at Lowkick. In the end – and with Imke prodding me in the right direction- it got me. I’ve been learning Muay Thai since 2014 and started as a substitute coach at Sidekick in 2016.
To me a welcoming and very personal atmosphere is important, so that everybody can be just what they are right now.
I’ve always liked keeping on my toes, getting a good workout, staying in motion… but I’ve never been competitive when it comes to sports.
The first time I went to Conditioning class at Lowkick in Berlin I was hooked. 90 minutes of pure fun, just working out hard, no concentrating on techniques- powering up to power down. For years I got my weekly workout there without really training Muay Thai. Nowadays I train at Sidekick e.V. in Leipzig and am a substitute coach for Imke and Caro. in the Conditioning classes. I hope to be able to share my idea of the fun and enjoyment movement can bring in a relaxed and joyful atmosphere.
When I was a child I was regularly sent to let out my anger on a punching bag. As time went by I got so used to the Martial Arts as an outlet that most other sports lost their interest for me. I did Ju Jutsu for years and years, started to train my own kids’ group and started teaching self defense, especially for teens (which I still do).
It wasn’t until I moved to Leipzig that I started Muay Thai, training at “8 Weapons” for some years – but without really developing ambitions for it. When I changed to “Sidekick” last year that changed completely. Albeit getting a good workout is still my main ambition I now recognize the sport to be a very positive challenge and the club itself is a great place to experience a unified sense of togetherness.
In August 2018 I started as a substitute coach in the conditioning classes on an irregular basis.

Presenter Nicky Campbell has described the sexual and physical abuse he says he suffered at the Edinburgh Academy he attended as a child, comparing one teacher to Jimmy Savile.
The 62-year-old broadcaster attended Edinburgh Academy, a fee-paying school, between 1966 and 1978, from aged five to 17.
Warning: This story contains descriptions which some readers may find distressing
He told the Scottish Child Abuse Inquiry (SCAI) that he was sexually assaulted by a teacher, Hamish Dawson, who died in 2009, and alleged he witnessed a primary-age child being sexually assaulted by another teacher, Iain Wares, whom he compared to Savile.
Savile, who is believed to be one of Britain's most prolific sex offenders, died in 2011 aged 84, having never been brought to justice for his crimes.
Permission was given by the inquiry's chair earlier this year to identify Wares, 83, who was previously a "protected person" and was referred to by a pseudonym.
Campbell first detailed his claims of sexual abuse last year, on an episode of his podcast Different on BBC Sounds.
Speaking on Tuesday, Campbell said he was still "haunted" by his schooldays and had previously turned to prescription medication to cope with the bad memories, but described his decision to share his experiences at the inquiry as "the best decision he had ever made".
Campbell said he had largely hidden the abuse from his adoptive parents, Sheila and Frank Campbell, saying it began in junior school but escalated in senior school.
He described a moment in preparatory school when he allegedly saw Wares molesting a young pupil in the showers.
'The smell of carbolic soap is triggering'
Campbell said: "This has haunted me since it happened.
"It all haunts you. I have had my penis touched by a teacher.
"The smell of carbolic soap is triggering.
"I remember Wares leaning over the back of my friend and masturbating him."
Campbell also said when he was 14 or 15 years old, he was attacked by a teacher so violently that a friend who witnessed it thought he was being mugged by a stranger. The teacher cannot be identified for legal reasons.
He said that after the alleged assault, when he threatened to contact the police, his mother had contacted Edinburgh Academy.
He described himself as a "survivor" and said: "I'm 62 years old but Hamish Dawson's hands are still in my underwear playing with my penis."
He also described the physical assault by another teacher as "being tossed like a ragdoll, punching and kicking me," and said the abuse "helped shape our lives in the most heinous way".
Wares has reportedly been fighting extradition to face charges following allegations against him during his time as a teacher in the 60s and 70s. The BBC report Wares has denied the allegations against him.
The BBC presenter became visibly angry when speaking about Wares living in a "plush retirement home" - and demanded a public apology from Edinburgh Academy, claiming it moved the teacher on to Fettes College, another high-profile school also in Edinburgh.
Campbell said: "You sent him there after a parent complained. You must [apologise] unreservedly and do it now."
He said mandatory reporting (the legal requirement for those who work with children or in law enforcement to report child sexual abuse) "breaks this pernicious code," and urged for it to be brought in.
A spokesman for the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service (COPFS) said: "This has been a complex investigation and COPFS appreciates that it has been difficult for all those involved.
"In order to protect any future proceedings and to preserve the rights of the complainers, the Crown will not comment further at this stage."
Campbell wrote a memoir, Blue-Eyed Son: The Story Of An Adoption, published in 2004, and was given an OBE for services to children in the Queen's birthday honours in 2015.
An Edinburgh Academy spokesperson said: "Schools should be safe places for everyone and, at various points in our history, this was not the case for too many of our pupils.
"They were wronged by specific individuals whose roles were to educate, protect and nurture them. For this, the Edinburgh Academy unreservedly apologises.
"We recognise that abuse during childhood has wide-ranging consequences for that individual throughout their life and we are fully committed to supporting our former pupils and helping in the investigations into accusations of historical abuse.
"Given the seriousness of these matters, we believe it's right that we give our views to the inquiry in the first instance and reserve any detailed comment for an appropriate time when its work has progressed.
"The Edinburgh Academy thanks those members of our community who have come forward and assisted the SCAI with its proceedings. This will have been an incredibly difficult undertaking and we applaud their courage in doing so."

Undocumented - 2011
Movie info: A documentary crew accompany a group of illegal immigrants crossing the Border who are then captured by a gang of sadistic anti-illegal immigration radicals in New Mexico.
Undocumented is a B horror film. Only Americans who like cheap anti-American propaganda will like this film. A propaganda film designed to discredit people who oppose illegal immigration.
The directing was poor and the dialogue was a horror. Trying to be quiet while attempting an escape was pure comedy.
If there is a legitimate message to this poor movie, it is that legal entrance to the United States is cheaper and safer.

The report covers various aspects such as overall market size of Brazil remittance market, international remittance market, domestic remittance market and bill payment market; segmentation on the basis of inbound & outbound international remittance, by major flow corridors (United States, Japan, Germany and others), by mode of transfer (electronic and cash), by channel (bank and non-bank), by bill payment methods (cash, credit/debit card/e-wallet and electronic transfers), by types of payment (grocery bills, utility bills, fuel bills, DTH & broadband bills and mobile recharge bills) and by regions. The report also covers snapshot on global remittance market, value chain analysis of Brazil remittance & bill payment market, competitive scenario in the industry, SWOT analysis, trends & developments, issues and challenges, regulatory scenario of Brazil remittance market. The report also covers the competitive landscape of the industry and comprehensive profile of leading players (WorldRemit, Western Union, TransferWise, MoneyGram, RIA Money Transfer, XOOM Corporation, Currency Solutions and Small World) operating in the market. The report concludes with future outlook and projections of Brazil remittance market, major macroeconomic indicators and upcoming trends affecting the market have also been highlighted in the report. The report also serves competitive scenario for each market which exists in remittance industry to get an in-depth understanding of remittance sector in Brazil.
The market will witness increase in outflow of remittance fund from Brazil to other countries owing to upcoming industrial sector and entry of number of foreign players in Brazil.
Rising number of nuclear families due to internal migrations will increase the usage of electricity, water, broadband, phones and other utilities which will change the shape of remittance industry in upcoming years.
Brazil remittance market will witness growth in domestic remittance in upcoming years with significant internal labor which will sustain the money transfer business in the country. Brazil is expected to witness rise in job opportunities and better wages in developed regions which will attract residents from various cities to move to urban areas for work. In upcoming years, Brazil will witness growth of young population which will migrate to other regions for better education opportunities in both Brazil and foreign countries, resulting in the increasing money transfer from home town to their destination regions. The domestic remittance industry in future will be driven majorly by digital money transfer business. The transaction fee for domestic money transfer is very minimal and has greater speed which will majorly aid the growth of domestic remittance market in Brazil. It is believed that companies and banks will expand their network in coming future in order to be easily accessible to the customers.
It is anticipated that international remittance in the country will increase at a good pace with the economic growth and development of Brazil. The rising Brazilian immigrants in foreign countries will result in increase in number of transactions from other countries to Brazil. Major countries that dominate in terms of international remittance include United States, Japan, Germany and others. As majority of the remittance comes from US, it is anticipated that new policies will be introduced by the administration which might have a negative impact on the foreign inward remittances. With majority of foreign workforce being in US, the dent in foreign remittances will surely have a negative impact. Moreover, it is expected that growing industrialization, entry of foreign players and growing working age population of the country will drive market growth in upcoming years.
Number of immigrants in Brazil, total number of households in Brazil, number of Brazilian immigrants worldwide and internet user population in Brazil are some other key factors that may have positive impact on the market, according to the Analyst at Ken Research.
Ken Research in its latest study, Brazil Remittance Market by Inbound and Outbound International Remittance, by Mode of Transfer (Electronic and Cash), by Channel (Bank and Non-Bank), by Bill Payment Methods (Cash, Credit/Debit Card/E-Wallet and Electronic Transfers), by Types of Payment (Grocery Bills, Utility Bills, Fuel Bills, DTH and Broadband Bills and Mobile Recharge Bills) and by Regions – Outlook to 2022, suggests that demand for remittance in the country will grow at a positive growth rate owing to growing youth population and increasing prominence of online payments in the country.

A US Judge arrived in Cairo on Monday for discussions about how to improve judicial cooperation between the two countries, independent daily Youm7 reported.
Marianne Bowler, a judge from the state of Massachusetts, will be in Egypt for a few days to meet with officials from the Justice Ministry, the Supreme Judicial Council and the Court of Cassation as well as head of the Court of Appeals Abdel Moez Ibrahim, according to Youm7.
During her visit, the American judge will also help with trainings in legal and negotiation skills, the drafting of commercial contracts and intellectual property rights, the report said.
Other outlets said the judge had come for other purposes.
Bowler is in Cairo to observe the trial of American NGO workers and to meet with their defense team, according to Al-Masry Al-Youm.
On Saturday, US State Department Spokesperson Victoria Nuland expressed a desire to engage with Egypt’s judiciary about the NGO case.
“Our view has been that we need to talk to all branches of the Egyptian government about this, including to the judiciary about the fact that we viewed the situation as unclear as a matter of Egyptian law, and that that needs to be cleared up with the executive in terms of its oversight of the judiciary,” she said.
Many of the suspects, including six US citizens and eight other foreigners, left Egypt last month after a travel ban was lifted according to a court ruling. They worked for several NGOs accused of receiving foreign funding and operating illegally in the country.
During Parliament’s session Sunday, MPs fiercely criticized the cabinet for allowing the suspects to travel. The court has since summoned their return for the trial.

Why Are Vitamins And Minerals Recommended?
Vitamins are unique organic substances necessary for life. They are neither carbohydrate, nor protein nor fat. Vitamins are essential players in the biochemical reactions responsible for our growth, repair, energy production, vitality, and general well being. However, they cannot be synthesized by our bodies. Vitamins are found in minute amounts in all natural foods. We must obtain vitamins from foods or from dietary supplements, such as Lean N Clean.
"Vitamins are neither pep pills nor substitutes for food. Anyone who has in the past eaten sugar, white flour, or canned food has some deficiency disease..." (Vitamin Bible by Earl Mindell)
Minerals are as important as vitamins. Vitamins cannot become part of the body and cannot function without minerals. They must work together. The body cannot manufacture a single mineral. We must obtain all minerals needed from outside sources. To put the importance of vitamins and minerals in perspective, let's think about the construction of a new house. Carbohydrate, protein, fat, and water are comparable to the building materials. Vitamins and minerals are comparable to the architect, contractor and construction workers. Obviously, without the architect, contractor, and construction workers, it does not matter how much building material you have, the house will never be built. Similarly, without vitamins and minerals, our bodies cannot synthesize new cells, build new tissues and produce energy we need regardless how much carbohydrate, protein, fat and water we ingest everyday. Most people, especially people who have weight problems, do not eat a well-balanced diet. Despite excessive food intake, people who are overweight are usually nutritionally deficient. Studies have shown that people who are nutritionally sufficient tend to crave less food or alcohol.
After Breakfast Or Lunch: B complex-50 (folic acid 400 mcg + 50 mg of all B vitamins), 1 tablet daily Vitamin C with rose hips, 500 mg, 1 tablet of daily Superzyme (Multiple digestive enzymes), 1-2 tablets for people who have indigestion.
After Dinner: B complex-50 (folic acid 400 mcg + 50 mg of all B vitamins), 1 tablet daily Vitamin C with rose hips, 500 mg, 1 tablet of daily Multiple vitamins with minerals and trace elements 1 tablet 5 days a week (Vita-super for pre-menopausal women and Vita-Min 75 mg Iron Free for post-menopausal women and men. (Post-menopausal women and men in general do not need iron supplementation.) Superzyme¬¨√Ü (multiple digestive enzymes), for people who have indigestion or over-eating, 1-2 tablets after meals.
Between Meals On Empty Stomach: Suprema Dophilus (probiotics) 1-2 capsules every other day or 2-3 times a week. During and after antibiotic therapy, 2-4 capsules daily for 2-3 weeks. What Are Probiotics?

Drug-induced Nutrient Depletion
This is one area that is being ignored or overlooked by most medical doctors whose arsenals for treating diseases are drugs and surgeries. Traditionally, doctors of western medicine receive very limited formal education in the subject of nutrition. Nutrients are also considered preventive rather than curative. History has demonstrated that it has taken decades to centuries for the human race to recognize that many diseases are caused by nutrient deficiencies. Some examples include: scurvy, which is caused by a deficiency of Vitamin C; beriberi is caused by a deficiency of Vitamin B1 (Thiamine); pellagra is caused by a deficiency of Vitamin B3 (Niacin) and rickets is caused by a deficiency of Vitamin D. Yet, in the last several decades, a disproportionately large amount of funding was poured into drug research in search of cures for diseases compared to the amount of money spent on research to find cures in nutrition. One of the obvious reasons is that pharmaceutical companies cannot patent naturally occurring ingredients in foods and therefore will not benefit from research in nutrition. We are still at the infancy stage of understanding nutrition since much knowledge of nutrition has yet to be discovered. Unfortunately, many drugs do not cure diseases; they only suppress the symptoms of diseases. In the United States, millions of people are taking medications that cause drug-induced nutrient depletion. Elderly people are in double jeopardy. Firstly, they do not take in adequate nutrients from foods due to decreased oral intake and absorptive power of their gastrointestinal tract. Secondly, they are usually prescribed multiple drugs, which can deplete the nutrients they have stored in their bodies and/or hinder their ability to assimilate new nutrients needed for optimal health.

Agents used in cancer chemotherapy may have profound effects on an individual's nutritional status. Oral intake may be decreased due to chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, leading to decreased nutrient intake. Many chemotherapy drugs exert direct toxic effects on cells lining the gastrointestinal tract which can lead to diarrhea and the destruction of cells responsible for absorption of nutrients. Eating causes foods and digestive juices to come into contact with raw inflamed intestinal tissue, resulting in severe pain. Therefore, many patients reduce their food intake to avoid pain. As a result, nutrient depletion is extensive including vitamins, minerals, amino acids and fatty acids. Some chemotherapy agents can induce severe constipation and/or functional bowel obstruction due to neurotoxicity.
What Is RDA?
RDA or RDAs stands for Recommended Daily Allowances. The Food and Nutrition Board, a division of National Academy of Sciences, first published the RDAs in 1941. These values have been periodically revised and updated. Since their inception, the government and many health professionals have promoted the RDAs as nutrient guidelines that will meet the need of most healthy individuals. RDAs may be adequate to prevent outright nutrient diseases, such as scurvy, beriberi, and pellagra, but they are hardly adequate for people with special needs and definitely inadequate for optimal health.

What are the different types of sports injuries?
Sports injuries is usually split into two categories:
- Traumatic and acute injuries
- Overuse injuries
Traumatic sports injuries
A traumatic injury refers to a high impact contact during a dynamic activity, which causes damages:
- Sprained join: sprained ankle, knee or wrist
- Broken bone due to an impact: broken arm, hand, leg or foot
- Dislocated joint: dislocated shoulder or elbow
- Cruciate ligament injury: ACL PCL
- Ankle sprain
- Groin pull
- Hamstring strain
- Shin splints
- Knee injury: ACL tear
- Knee injury such as patellofemoral syndrome: injury resulting from repetitive movements of your kneecap against your thigh bone
Overuse sports injuries
An overuse injury is categorised by any type of muscle or joint injuries caused by repetitive trauma.
- Tendinitis: tennis elbow (epicondylitis) or golf elbow, Achilles tendinitis or any other overuse tendon of your body
- Muscle strain: quadriceps or calf muscle strain
- Muscle tear
Although virtually any part of your body can be injured during sports or exercise, the term is usually reserved for injuries that involve the musculoskeletal system, which includes the muscles, bones, and associated tissues like cartilage.
How can physiotherapy help in treating sports injuries?
For any of these injuries, our sports specialised physiotherapist will be able to help you recover as fast as possible, using modern and recognised rehabilitation techniques. Depending on your injury and your lifestyle, the physiotherapist will tailor a rehabilitation program that suits you to help you recover in the best conditions possible to go back to your training safely and in optimal conditions.
They will as well be able to provide you the right advises on your daily sports routine, in order to avoid any more lesions.

A multi-year cohort-sequential study of rural adolescent dating violence victimization and perpetration is proposed. The project's goal is to define an ecological, multilevel model of dating violence victimization and perpetration among adolescents in the rural south as a prelude to developing a comprehensive, community-based prevention and intervention initiative and generating specific policy and program recommendations for the prevention of adolescent dating violence. Data will be collected across a four-year study period from a random sample of females and males in grades 6 through 12 (approximate age range of 12 to 19), a parent or caregiver, and school and youth serving organization personnel. Data will also be collected through an observational study of the adolescents'neighborhoods, through third party sources of neighborhood-level data and through an observational study of adolescent couples who have been dating for a minimum of three months. Finally, data will be collected on factors characterizing the organizational setting where youth spend substantial amounts of time, including schools and youth serving organizations. Latent growth curve analysis will be used to model the data. Specifically, the project will 1) describe the developmental trajectory of dating violence victimization and perpetration among adolescent females and males in a rural southern setting;2) identify multilevel risk factors for dating violence victimization and perpetration in the population;3) define predictive models for dating violence victimization and perpetration, taking individual, dyadic, familial, organizational, and neighborhood and community factors into account;4) describe the dyadic context of adolescent dating relationships relative to victimization and perpetration;5) design a multi- level ecological intervention approach to preventing and ameliorating adolescent dating violence victimization and perpetration based on predictive risk models;6) develop specific policy and program recommendations for responding to rural adolescent dating violence victimization and perpetration;and 7) disseminate research findings and policy and program recommendations.
The proposed research will contribute to a better understanding of dating violence and its consequences, particularly among adolescents in the rural South, leading to improved public health policies and programs for preventing dating violence and stimulating additional research using multilevel, ecological models. The project will also contribute to identifying the complex interactions among individual, family, and community factors contributing to dating violence, informing clinical practice and community-based interventions. [Specifically, the research will provide an empirical basis for tailoring prevention and intervention policies and programs to fit the development of dating violence over time and for incorporating strategies responding to dating violence at the individual, family, neighborhood, and organizational levels. The results are expected to point to the need to plan and implement comprehensive, community-wide prevention programs targeting teens and their families in natural community settings, arming youth service workers with generalized dating violence prevention strategies, and bringing about changes in the normative structure of communities to engage community residents in prevention efforts. The research will contribute to future empirical investigation by highlighting the utility of accelerated longitudinal designs and growth curve modeling.]

O’FALLON, Mo. – Two parents are behind bars after their eight-month-old child died from exposure to fentanyl, meth and other illegal drugs.
The child died Thursday, two days after being exposed to several illicit drugs. Prosecutors have charged the child’s parents, Valerie Shelley and Jordan Denson with several felonies in the death.
Police learned of the situation after responding to a call for service Tuesday in the 300 block of Narrowleaf Lane. Investigators say an infant was found unresponsive in a crib. Parents and first responders performed CPR on the baby, who later regained a heartbeat.
The child was rushed to a pediatric hospital and placed on life support. Despite life-saving efforts, the child died Thursday afternoon.
Sgt. Bryan Harr of the O’Fallon Police Department talked about the drugs found near the child.
“When the officers discovered in the house, drug paraphernalia that the child would have immediate access to,” Harr said. “Based on that information, they sought toxicology results, which revealed methamphetamine and fentanyl in the child’s system.”
Diphenhydramine and cotinine were also found in the child’s system when toxicology tests were done. He said the drugs were “within arm’s reach of the child in the crib.”
“It’s always hard for our officers, they handle this type of call. We are just glad we could get there when we could,” Harr said. “Our officers did everything within their power until the medics arrived, and they used all their resources to try to save the child.”
Shelly and Denson are charged with child endangerment (resulting in death), endangering creating substantial risk, possession of a controlled substance and unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia. Both are jailed in St. Charles County on a $500,000 cash-only bond.

Operating companies have often formed alliances with engineering contractors for consultancy, design and construction work within operating plants.
For the operating company, the alliance helps reduce overhead by allowing the company to focus on its core business. For the contractor, long term work is the driver. Competitive fee rates are also a major feature of an alliance / framework.
HFL has, over the last thirty years, engaged in alliance and framework agreements with many operating companies. These include:
We are always looking at increasing our alliances and frameworks with like-minded companies.

Peggy is a German Expat living in India. She works at German Embassy.
- What did you know about India before coming?
There were new elections coming up. I did a preparatory introduction seminar about India in Germany. I knew about the high pollution level but I didn’t know how serious it was. I knew about cheap labour and people getting exploited. I knew about Indian food.
- What expectations did you have about your experience here?
That it would not be too hard to be working here.
- What was the first thing that shocked you when you first came here?
I was not shocked by anything because I was prepared to come to a new place. There were many people in the streets but I was not shocked by it. I was positively surprised by it (Delhi) being a modern city.
- What things took you the longest to get used to? (Food, people, noise, dirt, traffic, pollution, etc.)
Pollution is the hardest to get used to. We have to use an air purifying system at home mostly during the winter months.
- In your daily life what are the main challenges you find?
Pollution and shortage of good and child friendly outdoor places in my gated community. There are no good children parks for soccer etc. Winter pollution makes it impossible to play outside, summer heat makes it impossible to do something outside. I would like to jog. It is hard to arrange anything without haggling for prices. Everybody tries to make maximum profit by taking advantage of people.
- Professionally what are main challenges you find? Culturally, what things are hard to deal with?
I don’t have any professional challenges. The non-compromising nature of Indian people is hard to get by with. You never know what they really mean because they don’t answer and don’t take decisions until the last minute. Lack of taking responsibility for actions is a really hard thing to deal with. So, I have to learn to do it another way and not the German way.
- What has helped you the most to get used to live here?
Time was playing in my favour. Some Indian colleagues helped me and other expats who came before me. Sharing their perspectives and listening to their stories helped.
- How about housing? Was it complicated to deal with landlords? Were there new rules you were not expecting?
My landlords are very uneducated, brutally capitalist oriented without hiding it. They don’t look after the place. I fixed a few things inside the apartment and air conditioning does not work. They don’t bother fixing it.
- Do people treat you differently because of being a foreigner?
I’m Mme Saheb, this is the message. I’m exotic, good enough to be photographed. They speak in English and not Hindi.
- Was it hard to deal with the immigration requirements?
No, my employer was doing everything for us.
- What recommendations, tips and advice could you give to people coming to India for work?
I work with Germans, mostly, so it is not hard. People who work in businesses often find it difficult. I wonder what it is that makes it so hard. Maybe they are too business oriented and not diplomatic enough. Our visa department gives out criteria for working standards at our office and it seems to work well.
- What are the positive things of being here?
I’m experiencing a new culture, really, not just from a postcard. Traveling around is great and there are many incredible destinations. It is a diverse country in many aspects.
- How is the work culture?
It’s collegial and friendly. Workplace is a tight knit fabric. Working with Indians is essential cause they showing us how to communicate with Indian institutions. They are culture and language savvy. We don’t know Hindi. Some people talk a lot to their family at work and other colleagues visit each other a lot at work. When it gets too much, it can be distracting.
- Is dating easy in India (for unmarried people)
I am not dating anybody here.
- Finally, can you give a brief description of your background?
I am 49 years old and mother of a boy. Diplomatic service with a background in German language and culture studies. Interests are languages, culture. I have long lived in Brazil before coming to India.

Shoppers get an early start
Mark Peterson of Harrison stood in line in front of Kohl’s in Port Chester at 3:30 this morning hoping to get unbelievable bargains on toys for his young daughter.
His sister, Lindsay Peterson of New Rochelle, is a bargain hunter, too. But her primary reason for being in the line was tradition. “I think it’s just fun,” she said.
The holiday shopping season kicked off across the Lower Hudson Valley this morning with customers huddled in layers of clothing and clutching warm drinks outside clothing, electronics and toy stores. The day is known as “Black Friday” – ostensibly because it’s the day that retailers become profitable for the year.
Experts say retailers are being particularly generous with discounts this year as a way to boost sales in the midst of a world economic crisis and at a time when companies are cutting jobs and retirement portfolios are shrinking.
Mark Peterson said he waited in line early on Black Friday last year and was astounded by the low prices.
“The prices are insane,” he said. “I came last year and I said ‘I can’t afford not to come back.’”
About 50 people were in the line outside Kohl’s at 3:45 a.m. But by the time a manager placed a key in the front door and let people in, the line had swelled to more than 200.
The shoppers entered the store in an orderly manner – except for one woman who sauntered up to the front of the line, cutting dozens of people and drawing dirty looks from those she passed.

Singer LeAndra’s November 5 show Soundtracks Through Time marks a dual celebration, in a way.
A joint production with the Little Carib Theatre, the show fetes the theatre’s late founder Beryl McBurnie, La Belle Rosette, as a part of the theatre’s Viva Beryl! Celebrating the Little Carib Legacy weekend of events.
On a more personal note, the show is LeAndra’s way of celebrating life within the wake of the losses of the covid19 pandemic.
“With the devastation it brought for a lot of, including my very own personal experience of the lack of some six of my relatives, it was heartbreaking for all,” the UTT-trained singer said. “It has been a difficult time for the overwhelming majority, emotionally, physically and economically. It proved to be uniquely difficult for us as artists. Performing live was our bread and butter, not to say feeding off the energy of the audience. A few of us rose to the challenge by going surfing, and it proved to be a superb experience. With restrictions lifted for essentially the most part, things have opened up and we’re in a position to perform live again, which is a joy.”
Since returning to the live stage, LeAndra’s recent credits include a feature performance at North Coast Jazz 2022 and An August Evening.
She jumped at the chance to play the famous Little Carib stage. McBurnie, who was born in 1913 and died in 2000, was a trailblazer in the humanities in TT, and the concert will include show tunes from her heyday.
“I plan to perform songs that span various generations,” LeAndra said. “I hope to hook up with the audience and invoke the complete gamut of feelings and emotions through my performance. The audience can expect to be taken back to memorable times through song, and hopefully a few of the very best of their lives.”
While she didn’t reveal any names, the set list is taken from LeAndra’s extensive Broadway and jazz repertoire.She said there can be “exciting guest performers and a few of the very best musicians in TT featured on Soundtracks Through Time. But I’d wish to keep that a surprise for the moment.”
The theatre’s celebration begins with LeAndra’s show and continues the next day. On November 6, there will likely be a series of movies from the archives of Christopher Laird that showcase chosen productions on the Little Carib Theatre from days passed by. “The Beryl weekend guarantees to be an incredibly wealthy one – from the powerful, young voice of LeAndra to the snippets of nostalgia and magic that took place on the Little Carib stage over time, reimagined through archival movies of veteran filmmaker Christopher Laird,” said Little Carib Theatre chair Shida Bolai.
Tickets for Soundtracks Through Time cost $250 and can be found on the Little Carib Theatre box office at 622-4644 and from LeAndra’s team at 734-8902.
The show is ready for six pm on November 5 on the Little Carib Theatre, Woodbrook.

Hidden easter eggs around the map for exclusively player customization would be a neat idea. It is a neat idea for the new map that we’ve already started exploring in some ways, through landmarks and random spots.
I also agree that encouraging exploration is a bad idea in the server’s current state, outside of the places we’ve decided that can be explored. Given that this is basically a scuffed survival world with builds placed on it. Would work nicely on the new map, but again, exclusively for player customization such as cosmetics or skins.

Eryn Shewell has been doing her own thing for as long as I can remember. If there was ever a theoretical situation where a bunch of musicians would be hanging out in a group, inevitably there would be Shewell, off in a corner with her own group of people. As far as being part of the scene, she’s always remained distant from the broader-based bunch, and I understand why.
Ever since she released Window Pane in 2008, Shewell has evolved in a quick and logical manner, shedding stylistic skins in an effort to end up where her latest self-titled release has taken her. Eryn is an artist who utilizes goals and stepping stone compositional woodshedding as everyday habit, and it has put her into a unique and success-dominated position and a field of adult R&B, soul and contemporary pop choices.
The new CD features 10 interesting songs ranging from New Orleans-tinged Dixieland to the glimmering, guitar savvy sounds of summer-splashed Americana country. Shewell’s bio tells of a brand new theme, brand new band and songs to match.
Eryn Shewell and her new band, The Whiskey Devils, use this opportunity to shed jeans and leather in favor of evening gowns and tuxedos as they roll out a class loaded collection on Shewell’s fourth full release to date.
As songs spin from the PC, I capture all manner of thoughts and impressions that serve as the very key to Eryn Shewell’s cumulative, musical soul.
Shewell winds up and fires off an involved mixture of R&B and alternative country twang on “Fall.” Shewell is a dynamic master as she swings high to low, steering the band down mid-tempo highways of boot scooting afternoons of lovers in motion. Shewell has reminiscent vibrations of Jewel (“Who Will Save Your Soul”) but never borrows more than she needs to push this breezy, California country song back to the barn.
“Suck it Up” is R&B at its rawest. Shewell shines under the heart-rending anguish of the blues. Dobros zip open string riffage up and down wooden necks as bass, drums and piano meter the infectious, toe-tapping backbeat. The sax work of Michael Ghegan is an attention grabber as it races in, jabs out staccato bleats of rock and roll lineage before receding back under Shewell’s bluesy growl. Shewell gets back to the business of never letting them see you sweat. I love the sheer power of her voice, and you can literally hear her giving everything she has here.
“Boy Like You” features acoustic open-voiced picking and dark, Les Paul-toned electrics under Charlie Rich piano rolls. Shewell’s voice is Whitney Houston sweet as she tells her confessional story of love’s immeasurable choices. Middle eight pianos set up the song’s outstanding bridge. Once again, Shewell works it out to make the specific genre all her own.
“Afraid Of The Dark” is a 1940s Noir-loaded Cab Calloway jam that explodes from the get-go. Dangerous, alleyway boogie flairs as brass blows the top of the kettle on “Afraid Of The Dark.” Shewell knew what she was doing when she picked her people for this record. The horn work of Michael Ghegan on sax and clarinet, Joel Mikulyak on trombone and James Gibbs on trumpet make this song jump straight over the moon. Shewell transports herself to outer worlds of vocal scalability, and it’s a wild ride. Guitars kick with switchblade warning, flashing and slashing rockabilly bedlam throughout the middle. Kudos to the arrangement here as it literally pops, crackles and hisses with the best swinging R&B swag this side of Lavay Smith & Her Red Hot Skillet Lickers.
“High School Sweetheart” takes a trip out into the country with tons of harmonica hits and sweet, mid-loaded Dobro skronk. Packed with the “Hand Jive” magic of Johnny Otis, “High School Sweetheart” is a foot stomping, hand clapping look back into a memory of special romantic origins that we never can forget.
“Relax To Sleep” rings under tremolo guitars and Shewell’s soprano high melodies. Intro chords glimmer under compositional shift as drums and bass ease underneath and into the verse. Hand-picked guitar melodies hold in place as bass moves up and into harmonic alignment for the chorus set up. Volume knob swells beck and call before Pat Ruh releases his guitars, snarling and ripping into the Drive-By Truckers-inspired middle eight. Shewell’s choice of melody makes choruses stand way out front each and every time around. One of my top picks on the CD.
“Breath In” is a jazzy romp into Rickie Lee Jones territory. That’s not a bad influential thing, as Jones has been an immeasurable talent for years. Guitars pop under funk progressions and forays into seventh and ninth chord territory as background vocals create a “round” under the main voice, pushing the song into its colorful chorus. Light, airy and filled with promises of successful love, “Breath In” delivers vibrant splashes of 1970s jazz pop imagery.
“Backseat Romance Forecast” conjures up drive-in movies and unwatched screens as romance took control in the back of station wagons and Bel Airs everywhere. Organs whirl and horns build into crescendos of finger snapping R&B rock. Jazz inflected licks fly out of left field as organs surge and twirl. Fun ‘50s-oriented rock and roll good times.
“Simple” is a smooth pass thorough Roberta Flack/Donny Hathaway territory. Pianos roll golden toned guidance over the top of succinct rhythmic work. Background vocals are just enough to shift the direction, refocusing Shewell’s verse work and pointing towards intricate piano voicings. I really like the arrangement work here. Smart compositional choices hold the reins of overkill and keep each part and section simple, vital and filled with the sounds of a summer day.
“I Wish I Was In New Orleans” flies from the disc with an old-time record crackling effect under solo, back porch gypsy guitar. Shewell launches her trademarked, sultry siren as the band slips into play. New Orleans horns scream and caterwaul as bass, drums and ragtime guitars chug and puff with Bourbon Street flair. Shewell is toned for days here, and the dynamic melody shifts are flawless. Ending audience chatter is traditional and harmonious as the band kicks back in for a jazzy, sassy good time hallelujah barroom jam.
2013 is a hallmark year for Eryn Shewell and The Whiskey Devils. With a new band, album and a freshly inked deal with booking agency Blue Raven Entertainment, Eryn looks to be sitting in the perfect position to grab everything she’s worked hard for these last few years.
Moreover, Shewell is looking for something much bigger than a career playing to hipsters in dive bars. This is an adult contemporary disc that culls years of experience with elations and triumphant wins, and places them in an intricate arrangement of production and presentation that will take her far up the ladder of commercial success.
Congratulations to all of the following fine players who appeared on the album: Eryn Shewell – vocals and guitar, Patty “Slidell” Ruh – guitars, piano and bass, Arne Wendt – keys, Jake O’ Handley – drums, Donna “Lady Bass” McPherson, Earl Sauls and Alan Green – bass, Chuggy Carter – percussion, Michael Ghegan – sax and clarinet, Joel Mikulyak – trombone, James Gibbs – trumpet, and Alice Leon – backup vocals.

Southwest Virginia in 8 Days - the FloydFest and Smith Mountain Lake Edition
I pulled together this itinerary as part of my Experience All of Virginia Project. This is a mish mash of some of my favorite Southwest Virginia travel adventures rolled into one epic 8 day journey. Note - this itinerary revolves around FloydFest which is held in late July. So book those dates on your calendar so you can have this awesome Southwest Virginia experience.
Days 1 - 5: FloydFest
FloydFest is a small, high-quality music festival in Floyd County, Virginia. There are five music stages and limited tickets so you can almost always get a front row seat if you want. The music is a mix of folk, bluegrass, funk, soul, reggae, hip hop and gospel. The year we went, some of the headliners we were excited about were the Carolina Chocolate Drops, Rising Appalachia, Lauryn Hill, Ziggy Marley, Michael Franti, and Thievery Corporation.
We went to FloydFest as volunteers, so got our tickets for free in exchange for working four 4- hour shifts. I had signed us up early to volunteer and so had the ability to choose shifts that didn't interfere with bands we wanted to see. We worked in the merchandise tent selling t-shirts and CD's. It was easy enough and we got to meet some of the bands when they came by to collect money from their sold merchandise. The woman running the merchandise tent also seemed pretty pleased with us and gave us some free meal tickets which was a nice bonus. However, I think if we went again, we would just pay to attend. I didn't realize how much I would enjoy all the smaller bands, and I underestimated my appetite for live music. Even on day five, I still wanted more.
I really loved the ambiance of this festival. It is most definitely family-friendly, and we saw kids of all ages there. They even had a whole children's universe and separate teen area with a ton of cool activities and their own music stages. They also offer childcare. We also noted an absence of sloppy drunks and frat bros which in my opinion is good for everyone.
The food was so amazing! There was a huge assortment of food trucks with the most delicious and healthy offerings. My favorite was a Korean Reuben that I got almost every day. I appreciated their recycling efforts as all of the paper products used at the festival were compostable and composted at a neighboring farm. They also only offered drinks on tap that you could get in your re-usable Floyd Fest collector's cup.
There are also a lot of outdoor activities offered including on-site frisbee golf and hiking trails. We went on an kayak excursion on the Little River before most of the music started on Wednesday. I would recommend taking a float with On the Water even if you aren't going to Floyd Fest. It was so relaxing and our tour ended with the owner's mom making us a home-cooked dinner on the river front which was a great way to get a sense of the other side of Floyd. AT the festival, we also took a tai chi and hula hooping class which were all at no extra cost.
You can of course go to Floyd Fest for a shorter period of time, but I highly recommend going for the full experience. And bring the kids!
Day 6 - Mabry Mill, Philpott Lake, Booker T. Washington Monument
Start unwinding from your festival experience with a visit to Mabry Mill. You can get breakfast there and then walk around the grounds which is a restored mill from the 1800's. Their very knowledgeable staff are able to answer lots of questions about how the mill functions and how their cabins were constructed. They also have some folks doing blacksmithing and chair making demos.
Afterwards, you can drive to Philpott Lake which is a little under an hour away to take a little walk. This is an Army Corps of Engineers Park and we found a path that took us down to the dam they had built. We also got the best and cheapest peaches we have ever had at a farm stand just outside the park.
After the lake, we stopped you can grab a quick lunch in Rocky Mount before heading on to the Booker T Washington National Monument. I was really impressed with this monument. They have a very nice museum in honor of Booker T, which was a great spot to wait out a thunderstorm that had passed through. It was very inspiring learning about the many obstacles he overcame to obtain an education and make it easier for others to do the same. They also have his restored slave cabin and a replica of the plantation he worked on before being emancipated. The area is very well maintained and there are some lovely little trails to walk around. When we were there, it was pretty dead and the staff were very eager to make sure we had a good experience.
From the Booker T Washington National Monument, you can be at a Smith Mountain Lake house rental in about 20 minutes. Our college friend's parents retired to Smith Mountain Lake and have been very gracious to host an annual weekend lake trip / college friends reunion for the past 10 years now. There are many lake house rentals on Smith Mountain Lake if you are not so fortunate to have friends with lake houses.
There are all sorts of lake activities you can partake in at Smith Mountain lake. We chose to spend the evening swimming and catching up with friends.
Day 7 - Smith Mountain Lake
Most Smith Mountain Lake Houses have a two night minimum, so spend another day at the lake unwinding from Floyd Fest. Whenever renting a lake-house, I always look first and foremost at the lake toys available. Luckily, our friend's parent's house is stocked with lake toys which makes for lots of good times.
Another bizarre Smith Mountain Lake experience that everyone should have is a visit to the Smith Mountain Dock and Lodge. The main attraction here are the toe-sucking carp. They even sell small tubs of peanut butter in the store for the sole purpose of smearing it on your toes and then letting the carp suck it off. It doesn't hurt at all when the carp suck on your toes, it's just crazy ticklish and shocking.
This attraction is in Penhook which is on the other side of the lake from Huddleston. We just boated over there in about 5 minutes, but I imagine the drive would be a lot longer.
Day 8 - Peaks of Otter and Natural Bridge
If you are heading home and north is the way you are going, I recommend breaking up your drive with two hikes. Peaks of Otter is about 45 minutes from Huddleston. We did the Sharp Top Hike option which was about 3.5 miles and took about two hours. There's some significant elevation change in a short time frame, but the 360 degree views at the top are worth it.
There aren't many hikes that have such a rewarding view after only an hour. There is also the Peaks of Otter winery not far from the trail head if you need a reward at the end of the hike too.
About 30 minutes further north is Natural Bridge. The 2 mile out and back Cedar Creek Trail takes you through a replica Monacan Indian Village which is full of living history exhibits and reenactors. The trail ends at the rock formation that is Natural Bridge which is quite stunning.
I actually haven't been to Natural Bridge since it became a state park. When I went it was privately owned and your ticket price also included entrance to their wax museum. I think this area was a vacation destination in the 1950's and this museum is a relic of that time. It's super creepy in a wonderful way and I recommend a visit if it hasn't been torn down.
Food - $370. We splurged on food and drinks at Floyd Fest since we didn't have to pay for tickets.
Lodging - $150. Camping was free for us at FloydFest since we volunteered. We pitched in on a lake house rental so we could accommodate more people.
Activities - $106. This included our kayak trip and entrance to Natural Bridge.
Gas - $30. This was about 10 hours of driving for us in a Prius.
Total - $656 for the three of us. That's $27 per person per day! We would probably spend as much or more travelling in southeast Asia.
One final tip for those of you driving to Southwest Virginia from the north. If you are on 81 and need a break, stop at Ben Salem Wayside in Buena Vista. It's about a 2 minute drive off of 81 and is a great spot to have a picnic and swim in the Maury River.

When COVID-19 hit, the virus not only infected bodies, but also homes. Our kitchens, bedrooms, even bathrooms became office spaces as people had to suddenly cram both work and leisure into the same place. This change drastically altered the distribution of energy usage across the city (and the world) as office buildings emptied and people were confined to their homes.

In the lushness and vastness of the Western wilderness, the city dweller’s daily fight for blades of grass, open skies, and majestic mountains feels more like a calling than a battle. The city, with its tall buildings slicing the sky into slivers, darkening the streets long before sunset, can overwhelm with cynicism. Energy efficiency, walkable streets, LEED Platinum skyscrapers. The goal is clear, to save our planet. But out there in hopeful hills and valleys, where billions of stars blanket the night sky, you can actually see what it is you are saving.

Rugby Australia have issued a statement on their negotiations with the Rugby Union Players’ Association (RUPA) regarding a pay cut for players.
RUPA head Justin Harrison recently claimed that Rugby Australia hadn’t been forthcoming with information regarding Australia rugby fiances, and now RA Chief Executive Raelene Castle has responded.
The statement reads: Rugby Australia Chief Executive, Raelene Castle has issued the following statement on current discussions with the Rugby Union Players’ Association (RUPA) regarding a short term pay deal to assist the code through the COVID-19 global health crisis.
“Rugby Australia yesterday announced a raft of deep cuts across the organisation that were necessary to support the game through the current global health and economic crisis caused by Coronavirus,” said Castle.
“These very difficult decisions have impacted every single employee at Rugby Australia and the Super Teams, and 75% of those employees have been stood down from their roles for a period of three months. This also equates to over a 75% savings in costs across these organisations.
“Yesterday, we commenced formal discussions with RUPA with a genuine desire to find a fair and reasonable solution on a short term pay deal with the players for the three-month period from now until June 30.
“We believe the information we have shared, including information on future cash projections, provides the players with enough information to develop a position.
“We have entered the discussions with RUPA in good faith and look forward to continuing those discussions to reach an appropriate agreement under the current circumstances.”
New Zealand Rugby staff haven’t taken the same hit as their Australian counterparts, agreeing to a 20 per cent pay cut across the board.
The organisation confirmed more of its austerity measures to AAP on Wednesday as it combats the financial strain caused by the coronavirus pandemic
All NZ Rugby staff, including the Board and All Blacks management, have accepted the 20 per cent pay reduction which a spokesperson said would have been worse were it not for the assistance of the New Zealand Government’s wage subsidy scheme.

It is not “gay sex” that is driving the HIV epidemic because anal sex is not synonymous to gay sex.

- An Indian man has created an innovative safety kit to help women feel safer while walking around the streets in India.
- Shyam Chaurasia from the state of Uttar Pradesh in India has been showcasing his inventions found in several everyday accessories such as earrings and handbags to help keep women safe since 2020.
- Chaurasia’s safety kit, which is not yet ready for public release, contains a handbag and a pair of heels that can fire blank rounds to scare off any attackers and help alert bystanders.
- The Indian innovator has also invented a pair of earrings with a GPS tracker inside that can make emergency calls to the authorities, as well as a "lipstick gun" that can be connected to its user's smartphone via Bluetooth.
- “In case the woman is in trouble or anyone tries anything and she is not able to use a mobile phone, she can press a button on the lipstick gun, which is linked to Bluetooth and it will immediately make a call to the 112 emergency number,” he told the South China Morning Post in January 2020.
- As of July, the National Commission for Women reportedly received more than 17,000 complaints of crime against women in India.

Student Engineers Who Gave Only Woman in The Class Lipstick for Women’s Day Blasted for Alleged Sexism
Recently, the male students from an engineering class at Guangzhou University made news for gifting their only female classmate a set of expensive MAC lipsticks for women’s day.
While many netizens applauded this move a kind and considerate gesture, others accused the men of sexism, claiming the gift was misogynistic.
The male students of an engineering class at Guangzhou University are making headlines for buying their only female classmate luxury cosmetics for International Woman’s Day.
Chen Weiqi, the recipient of the thoughtful present, was stopped after class by her male colleagues, according to Shanghaiist. When she unwrapped the gift, she was surprised to see a set of high-end MAC lipsticks, valued at 1,800 yuan ($284). The reason for so many? They said they weren’t sure which color she liked, so they decided to get her a collection so she could choose.
Kat Von D is famously known for being the star of the reality show “L.A. Ink,” which ran for four seasons between 2007 and 2011. In 2008, she took her artistic talent with colors and channeled it into a successful cosmetics line with Sephora. Though her makeup collection has been huge for years now, could the controversial naming on one of her products pose a threat to her business?
Since the release of her red-tinted lipstick called “underage red,” many makeup fanatics have spoken out against the product, believing that it advocates the sexual promiscuity of minors. One Twitter follower coined the product as “a lipstick for creeps.”

It has been a few weeks since the last post and we are in the midst of the crazy, hectic pre-Christmas madness. I have been at markets, exhibitions and craft shows and making as much as I can in between. My family have been so amazingly helpful especially in the first few weeks of having my hand in a cast. My dad is skilled in the art of detailed cut work, I have trained my husband to attach jewellery findings and make earrings, and my mum has been helping me out with pretty much everything else! Luckily now a few weeks have passed and I'm able to do pretty much everything again so my family are finally off the hook.
It has been a fun time travelling to different towns and meeting people, both new and returning customers and also fellow stallholders. I even bumped into an old friend from college at Worcester Victorian Christmas Market, which was fantastic! Getting feedback on products and ideas is always great, even if the feedback isn't necessarily what I'd want to hear, and I love listening to ideas and requests from customers. For example, the earring designs were all suggested by customers, and I might never have tried them had they not been requested. Admittedly it took a while to get there, but I did listen Smiling face with open mouth and smiling eyes this year has not been any different, so there are lots of ideas and suggestions swimming around in my head. I can't wait to try them out in the New Year.
Until then, I have a couple more Craft markets at Hereford and Cheltenham and an exhibition with the Oxfordshire Craft Guild in Woodstock
