By R. W. APPLE Jr.
Sweet Maria's note: R.W. Apple Jr. is a great veteran journalist who happens to love coffee ...so much that he was invited to be the Keynote Speaker at the 2000 SCAA (Specialty Coffee Association of America) conference in San Francisco. His speech was a collection of annecdotes from is many travels through coffee lands, usually covering political news stories. Many of the coffee growers and farms in this articles are ones we are familiar with or have had the pleasure to cup...
A couple comments: Kona is not necessarily the finest coffee produced in the United States ...there is also the Yauco Selecto coffees of Puerto Rico which had a couple tough years in 99 and 00 but are back in form for 01. Also, it is difficult to separate the cup quality of coffee and the story behind it. The lure of the islands sells a lot of Kona. Everyone wants to support small farmers, but it must be done based on the quality of coffee they can produce, not based on romance. Yes, Kona can be an excellent coffee; a soft, mild cup with varying degrees of compexity, and one of the finest within that mild island coffee cup profile ...but not the acme of all the worlds coffees. The best Konas are small farm offerings that come from family farms. But even 100% Kona is no guarantee of quality, and even small farms have off years, and some simply do not have ideal coffee land ...especially in terms of adequate elevation. The best small farm coffees are worth it. The low grown and a majority of other Hawaiian island coffees simply ride on the coattails of the reputation of the best small farms.

CAPTAIN COOK, Hawaii -- AS you drive south along the west coast of the Big Island, you can't help smelling the coffee roasting. With that, and the slopes of Mauna Loa on your left, bathed in the sumptuous sunlight of a Hawaiian morning, and the whales cavorting in the blue Pacific on your right, who needs roses?
You are smelling the pride of the Kona coast, the best coffee produced in the United States. It comes from trees growing in the slowly decomposing lava flows that stripe the hillside along a milewide, 25-mile-long piece of land stretching from Holualoa south to Honaunau. One of the most prominent growers in Captain Cook, John Langenstein, calls these 2,500 precious acres "God's gift to the coffee bean."
Coffee is grown on most of the Hawaiian Islands, but Kona's well- drained basaltic soil is perfect. The climate pattern is perfect, with sunlight in the morning, which is beneficial, and cloud cover in the afternoon, a natural canopy that blocks out the day's most intense heat, which is not. And the rainfall is perfect ó 60 to 90 inches a year at 1,100 feet, compared with 2 inches on the beaches only a mile away.
Whether brewed in a drip pot or in an espresso machine, pure Kona produces a cup of coffee with a creamy head and a magnificently full body. Its taste is winy and multidimensional, with enough acidity to give it balance. The first time I tasted it, almost a decade ago, I knew it was something special, and I'm no kind of coffee connoisseur. My choosy wife, Betsey, agreed.
At a retail price of $20 a pound or more, growers here concede, Kona is one of the world's costliest coffees. Yet no one is getting rich; Mr. Langenstein estimates that he cleared about $20,000 last year. His mill, a ramshackle apparatus made of plywood and galvanized steel, with handmade pulleys and belts, is 100 years old. He sticks at it, he said, because he loves the climate, having grown up in Newark, N.Y., near Rochester, where winters can be brutal, and because "it's such a great place to raise kids."
Mike Craig, another grower, summed it all up in four pithy words: "Life's great, work stinks."
For the dozens of small growers, economies of scale and hip marketing campaigns are beyond reach. So most sell mostly on the Internet. The only producer of pure Kona who seemed to be making it big turned out to be a fraud. Officials of Kona Kai coffee were convicted in 1996 in a $20 million swindle in which cheaper Central American green (unroasted) coffees were put into bags marked "Kona." Not all French bread comes from France, one of the miscreants argued; "why should all Kona coffee come from Kona?"
There is, in fact, no need to flout the law. A perfectly legal way to make money on Kona coffee is to blend it with less expensive coffees and sell the result as Kona.
That's what big roasters do. They benefit from the name while bypassing most of the cost that goes along with using only carefully hand-tended, handpicked beans from the Kona coast. They must label their stuff "Kona blend," and the purists can call theirs "100 percent Kona," but the word "blend" somehow ends up in smaller type.
A University of Hawaii study a couple of years ago estimated that 20 million pounds of Kona coffee are sold annually, although only about 2 million pounds of Kona beans are produced. Legally, a blend containing 10 percent Kona can be called Kona coffee.
"We have a terrible marketing problem," said Merle Wood, a big- time corporate lawyer turned small- time coffee grower. He said it with the air of a man who has spent a lot of time trying to roll boulders up Mauna Kea. Well he might. As the president of the Kona Coffee Council, an alliance of small growers, he and several colleagues, led by Mr. Langenstein and Mr. Craig, have struggled in vain to establish a certification mark for coffee grown in the Kona district.
Such trademark protection exists for Maui and Vidalia onions and for Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee, as well as for many wine regions, but the growers' efforts have been blocked by the big coffee companies.
"Our market is on the mainland," Mr. Wood said. "Starbucks has taught people there about good coffee, but it's a very long way away, and convincing them to insist on pure Kona is a very difficult proposition. This is a poor island, where nobody but the tourists can pay or will pay 20 bucks a pound for coffee. But what tourists take home, if they take food at all, is chocolate-covered macadamia nuts."
Coffee trees (Coffea arabica, mostly of Guatemalan origin) grow to 20 feet tall in Kona, and they sometimes live for a century or more, developing trunks up to six inches thick. As is often the case with grapevines, the old trees yield the best fruit.
Actually, the trees look more like bushes, with heavily ridged leaves and long whiplike branches that bend toward the ground when heavy with fruit. Members of the gardenia family, they produce amazingly fragrant, brilliantly white flowers that coat the hills 8 or 10 times a year, usually beginning in December or January. "Hawaiian snow," the locals call it.
The fruit that follows is a berry about the size of a cherry tomato, which gradually turns from green to scarlet as it ripens. But this is not an accommodating fruit like the apple or the peach. With so many flowerings a year and a ripening period of seven to nine months, there can be no single harvest.
So the pickers, mostly Mexicans, have to make their laborious way down the rows of trees as many as a dozen times a year, steadying themselves on the steeply sloping mountainside as they pluck the ripe berries from the trees. They squeeze the berries, and out pop the seeds ó fresh coffee beans, coated in a sweet mucilage-like substance. Usually, there are two; when there is only one, it is called a peaberry. (Some growers argue that peaberries make a superior cup of java, but others dismiss that as hype).
At this stage the coffee is known as "cherry," and a lot of arduous processing lies ahead before it is ready for the roaster, let alone the grinder, the pot and the cup. The foamy covering is removed in a pulping mill. Then the beans ferment overnight before drying, either in a gas oven or, preferably, on what the early Japanese farmers here called a hoshidana, or drying deck. This is a series of concrete pads with retractable corrugated steel roofs that can be left open to the sun and closed when it rains. The beans are raked repeatedly during daylight hours to keep them from spoiling.
When the moisture content is reduced to 11 or 12 percent, the beans develop a papery covering called "parchment." At this stage they can be stored for fairly extended periods.
Many small operators among the 600 growers here, lacking the capital to install expensive machinery, are forced to sell their cherry to the big processors for whatever price they can get, which in bad times is not much, rather than waiting for the market price to rise. Others pay a fee to have the raw beans processed for them.
The final stages involve grinding off the husklike covering, grading the beans (Extra Fancy, Fancy, No. 1, Prime) and, of course, roasting.
Mr. Langenstein, who produces 8,000 pounds of coffee on his 8.3 acres in a good year, ages some of his beans for as much as 12 months in parchment. A onetime wine-and-food man at Hawaiian hotels, he thinks this mellows the coffee and brings out subtleties in its flavor, the same way that storage in oak barrels helps mature wine.
Coffee growers, fierce individualists all, disagree about almost everything. Is gas-drying or air-drying better? Should roasted beans be kept at room temperature, in the refrigerator or in the freezer? And perhaps the most contentious question of all: light roast or dark? Mr. Langenstein thinks dark-roasting caramelizes the coffee too much, thus increasing the caffeine concentration and making it harder to taste the nuances in the brew. Mr. Craig, just a few miles up the road, thinks lighter roasts taste wimpy.
Choose your poison.
A missionary named Samuel Ruggles brought the first coffee trees to this island in 1828 ó for their ornamental value, not to produce a cash crop. But by 1845, the first exports were on their way to California, and starting about a hundred years ago, Japanese farmers came to dominate the growing of coffee in Kona. Some came directly from Japan, but many escaped from slavelike conditions on Hawaiian sugar plantations before their contracts expired, rode here on donkeys along narrow cliffs and changed their names.
Living frugally in tiny frame houses, often without electricity or running water, the farmers were constantly in hock to the stores owned by the big mills. In an exhibition at the Kona Historical Society, a farmer named Yosoto Egami recalled, "The store advanced merchandise for your family . . . and at the end of the year, in return, you had to give your crop to the store."
Restricted by geography to the small zone near Mauna Loa, the Kona coffee industry, and indeed the coffee industry in the islands as a whole, never approached the size of the giant Brazilian, Costa Rican and African plantations. It was plagued by economic collapse in its main markets, the United States and Japan, and later by price volatility. One old-timer recalled the price of cherry falling to 33 cents a pound, from $1.37, in two or three weeks.
Most remaining Japanese-American growers are getting old, and some, like the mother of Eddie Sakamoto, the nonpareil wine waiter at the Canoe House hotel, grow coffee only part time now. They sell their output to the Kona Pacific Farmers Co-Op, which processed about 1.5 million pounds of cherry (from about 300 farmers) last year.
Recently, the historical society acquired and restored the former D.†Uchida farm, established in 1913, as the Kona Coffee Living History Farm, which still produces coffee the old-fashioned way. Think you know something about frugality? Then check this: ceiling panels sewn from cotton rice sacks. (Small groups are given tours, by advance reservation only, by costumed guides. Detailed information on the World Wide Web at www.konahistorical.org.)
It was the arrival in the 1980's and 1990's of retirees and others from the mainland, known here as haoles, that transformed coffee-growing. Striving for maximum quality, more than 40 of them now market their own estate coffees ó those grown on a single farm that is owned or leased by the farmer, with careful records kept to establish its origin. Five of these estates have been grouped together for greater marketing efficiency as Pele Plantations (www .peleplantations.com), but most have stubbornly gone it alone.
The new growers are a varied bunch, to put it mildly. One of them, Gus Brocksen, who heads Pele Plantations, hands out business cards identifying himself as "Head Bean." Another, Mischa Sperka, is a voluble former museum curator of Central European origin who farms 10 acres and processes his own coffee and that of 25 neighbors. Nikki Ferrari, who runs a sizable non-estate mail- order business under the name Hawaiian Mountain Gold, says he is a distant relative of the Italian automaking family.
And then there is Mike Craig. I found him at the end of a steep, stony, rutted, twisting road, well up the mountain, where he lives with his family in a kind of treehouse, with its sides open to the breezes, surrounded by towering Norfolk pines and orange-flowering African tulip trees. A burly, bushy-haired man who used to teach and coach at a high school in San Diego, he came here after watching a Pacific Southwest Airlines jet crash there in 1978.
"It was an omen," he said. "When planes start falling on your house, it's time to try something new."
Eight years later, he became the first all-organic producer of Kona Coffee, substituting weed-whacking for herbicides and compost for chemical fertilizer, and enriching the soil further with glacial rock dust. He found in short order that his product, now sold under the Rooster Farms label (www.roosterfarms.com), could command a premium price, he said, "just as it ought to." He charges $25.95 a pound, with shipping extra.
"It's twice as much work," Mr. Craig's wife, Lindy, added, "but it's not near twice as much money."
Like the others, they depend heavily for sales on the Internet, word of mouth and a mailing list built up over the years. Like the others, they do most of the work themselves, and do it well enough that they have a contract to supply coffee to Merriman's, the Big Island's top restaurant.
Mr. Langenstein weighs each bag of
coffee he sells on a tiny Directo postage scale, seals it with a gadget that looks like a curling iron and signs it by hand, "so people know what they get." His coffee, labeled Langenstein Farms, sells for $25, shipping included (www.kona-coffee .com).
But the big guys may be coming. A few days before Christmas, a 1,570- acre ranch on the Kona coast, once owned by the actor Jimmy Stewart, was sold to a local investor for $7.4 million. The investor, Guy Cobb, said he planned to replace the pastures, forests and macadamia groves that now cover the land with coffee trees.

'I Can Assure You, McCarthy Does Not Have the Votes.' – House Freedom Caucus Chair
Garrett Wedemire
Congressman Scott Perry (R-PA-10), told the Todd Starnes Show that House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy does not have the votes necessary to become the next Speaker of the House.
CLICK HERE to follow Todd on Twitter.
"Todd, you understand tactics and strategy; everybody and everything in Washington, D.C. is about counting the numbers or counting the money. So I can assure you that now, Kevin McCarthy does not have the votes needed to become speaker," Perry said.
Should McCarthy be the next Speaker of the House?
His comments come only weeks after the midterm elections and days after the Georgia runoff in which Republicans lost key races across the country in all races.
The bottom line is, "We're all tired of losing." Perry stated.

"We can't have the same people under the same conditions doing the same things and expecting a different outcome. Something has to change there. Either the conditions, the people, or the circumstances. Something has to change."
Perry told Starnes right now Kevin McCarthy does not have the votes to become Speaker of the House, and he won't have the votes unless he agrees to make some changes.
LISTEN TO THE FULL INTERVIEW BELOW:
The following is a rush transcript from the Todd Starnes Show, which airs daily from noon – 3:00 p.m. EST.
TODD STARNES: [00:41:39] We want to get to your calls, but I want to go to the Patriot Mobile Newsmaker Line we're honored to have with us from the great commonwealth of Pennsylvania. He is the chairman of the House Freedom Caucus, Congressman Scott Perry. Congressman, thanks for coming on the show today. [00:41:40][1.7]
CONGRESSMAN SCOTT PERRY (R-PA-10): [00:41:53] Absolutely, Todd, and great to be with you. I would say this. I just listened to the conversation that you played. Look, Chuck Schumer has been wildly successful in the Senate. And he's being rewarded for it in the House. The Democrats exceeded their expectations. But let's look at the environment that we had to run in. But at every single level, there's never been a more favorable environment in your lifetime to run as a Republican. Democrats overperformed their expectations. What did they do? They changed their entire leadership team because it still wasn't enough. Now, on our side, I guess we can't be bothered to listen to what Albert Einstein said. He said doing the same things and expecting different outcomes is the definition of insanity. So we have the same people under the same conditions doing the same things. And what do we think is going to change? I struggle with it. You know what we have to do, quite honestly, Todd, I think, is divorce ourselves. You know this is business. So, yeah, we like Ronna. She's a nice lady. I'm not out here to trash or anything like that. But. But we have to have results in corporations. There are probably many nice people, but stockholders and shareholders demand results. They don't care if you're going to go golfing with them. What they care about is if you're going to increase the value of their portfolio because they invested in you and your company because they believed you were going to increase the value of their portfolio. Unfortunately, we haven't increased the value of our portfolio, as far as I can tell. [00:43:07][74.5]
TODD STARNES: [00:43:30] Yeah, I haven't, I haven't either. Congressman. And I'm telling you, Laura Ingraham, I think she summed it up very well last night. She said she was pissed. And I got to tell you, I am, too. And a lot of my listeners are just angry. They're tired of losing. [00:43:43][13.1]
CONGRESSMAN SCOTT PERRY (R-PA-10): [00:43:45] Yeah. We're all tired of losing. And I would say this as well. Where? Where we picked up. We picked up in New York. Thank you, Lee Zeldin, for running a campaign in difficult conditions. But, you know, he probably would have won had all the New Yorkers that traditionally could have voted for him hadn't moved to Florida. You had Florida. That's Ron DeSantis. But other than that, it was down to each individual candidate. If you have good candidates, you can win even in tough seats. But here's what we were missing, Todd. In my opinion, any overall messaging tied to results from Mitch McConnell and leadership in the House that there was no messaging and if there was, it came very late in the cycle. We were already voting in Pennsylvania when we got the message of what Republicans are for. We squandered two years and multiple leverage opportunities to show what we would do if we had authority. We squandered those opportunities. We didn't get any gains yet. We said to people, well, come out and vote for us. Here's what they did. Todd, they said, look, the Democrats and the left are destroying the country. I can't vote for them. These guys aren't much better, but I can't vote for those other guys. There was no enthusiasm because none was earned. [00:44:55][70.6]
TODD STARNES: [00:44:56] It seems to me, Congressman, and I think the Georgia race encapsulates the broader issue here of what's happening. We had a candidate problem there, and I was pretty open about that early on when they rolled Herschel out. It should have been done differently to address all of the skeletons in the closet instead of the daily drip we got in the media. But beyond that, the messaging, like you just said, was all over the place where they're talking about kale chips. That was Senator John Kennedy trying to make some point. They were talking about all sorts of stuff other than the issues impacting people at their homes. But again, despite all of that, he did well. And you have to wonder, Congressman, if the establishment Republicans in Georgia had just gotten on board that campaign, would that have been enough to push Herschel Walker over the finish line? [00:45:49][52.2]
CONGRESSMAN SCOTT PERRY (R-PA-10): [00:45:50] Well, look, he was behind and ended up a couple of points, right? At the end of the thing, you look at how the campaign was run, which is certainly a factor. The candidate is indeed a factor. I think Herschel got better over time. But the spending, the resources, three, four, two, one. These are huge sums of money. You know, you're right. You can't, as a candidate, think that the truth will not come out. The truth, the information, the skeletons, whatever you want to call them, will come out. Just resign yourself to it. The best thing to do. Get it out early. Deal with it and then move on. But if you think you're just going to keep hiding it and run from it, you're a fool. And that's why candidate selection is important. We have to have look; these are high-stakes races. You know, I believe that the nationalization of Senate races has destroyed, you know, our ability to pick the right senators from our states. That's another topic. But we have to select candidates that know how to do this. And, you know, look, we had a candidate in Pennsylvania, a nice person, capable, you know, in many areas. But you don't go on the television talking about crudités. People in Pennsylvania that don't live on the main line in Philadelphia don't understand what you're talking about. If you say vegetable tree, they get it, but you don't. You shouldn't be told that if you have to be told, there's a problem. [00:46:36][46.6]
TODD STARNES: [00:47:13] So, Ronna has got to go. And again, I'm sure a very nice person. We've always, but she's been cordial to us. But she's got to go. We need new leadership. Where do you stand on Kevin McCarthy as speaker of the House? [00:47:26][12.8]
CONGRESSMAN SCOTT PERRY (R-PA-10): [00:47:27] We are now trying to find out if he will support the things that need to change. Again, we can't have the same people under the same conditions doing the same things and expecting a different outcome. Something has to change there. Either the conditions, the people, or the circumstances. Something has to change. That's what I can say there. We've got some time left on the runway before we take off on January 3rd. But if something doesn't change there, you'll see things that haven't been seen in America for about 100 years. [00:47:49][21.9]
TODD STARNES: [00:47:58] Now you've got folks out there, Mark Levin, the talk radio host, are just saying horrible things about Andy Biggs, basically accusing him of not even being a conservative. And others are saying the House Freedom Caucus will hand the speakership to Liz Cheney. How do you respond to these, you know, this hate that's being directed at you guys? [00:48:19][21.0]
CONGRESSMAN SCOTT PERRY (R-PA-10): [00:48:21] This is how I respond. The forces within Washington, D.C., are wedded and invested in the status quo. And what they are trying to do, and sometimes successfully, is put the fear that somehow Democrats are going to be elected, Democrats going to be elected speaker. Todd, the only way that happens, there's only when there was only one way that can happen, is if Republicans vote for a Democrat. Now, they put that story out there over and over again. Some people pick it up and talk about it, but no one puts names and faces the claim. So I asked there was one guy whose story was written about one representative that he would work with Democrats, and they asked him, are you going to vote for a Democrat for a speaker? He said, Absolutely not. I don't like what you're doing, but I never vote for a Democrat. It's just using fear to try and make sure that the establishment and the status quo remain. It is unacceptable. It is unsustainable. [00:49:15][53.5]
TODD STARNES: [00:49:16] And even if that were true, that would be the proof that that would be the last line. I mean, that's it. You know, again, that you would have Republicans voting with Democrats. But again, Congressman, you guys are very effective, and that's why they're coming after the House Freedom Caucus. [00:49:33][17.3]
CONGRESSMAN SCOTT PERRY (R-PA-10): [00:49:35] Yeah. Look, we were in good faith trying to change how things are done, so we don't have the same outcome at the end of this year. And right now, no one that wants to be in leadership at the top has given us a vision of how they will do that. It trusts me; it's essentially voted for me now and trusts that we will do these things in the future. Todd, We have played that game over and over again. We, you know, in my time, we've added, I don't know, $14 trillion or more in debt during the same period of time where I heard the same rhetoric, whether it was John Boehner or Paul Ryan, I'm sorry, the American people can no longer sustain this. There's got to be something that's changed here in the equation, or we're going to keep coming up with the same outcome. And if the Freedom Caucus is the only one willing to do the hard work to save the Republic, so be it. The Lord sent us here to do this job. They didn't say it would be easy or comfortable, but it has to be done. [00:50:33][57.4]
TODD STARNES: [00:50:33] And Congressman, real quick here. Regarding the list of things that the demands that you guys have given to Kevin McCarthy, are you able to share any of those things that you want to see happen? [00:50:42][9.3]
CONGRESSMAN SCOTT PERRY (R-PA-10): [00:50:43] Well, I'm going to. I'm just going to share a couple of I think you'll understand your audience will understand because some of this stuff is inside baseball, but accountability. So under Speaker Boehner, we had the motion to vacate the chair. That's essential; you get enough votes, you don't make the speaker, you can throw the speaker out. When Nancy Pelosi came in, she got rid of that. We have effectively enshrined that in the rules now in the Republican House. It is unacceptable. There must be accountability for the person that sits in the seat three steps from the presidency. That's number one. Number two, earmarks. We have gotten rid of earmarks, and now they're back. We cannot sustain this unbridled spending and the coercion that goes with earmarks. And then, finally, the ability to have single-subject bills. We see it right now with the national defense authorization being Christmas trade, with a bunch of items that have nothing to do with national defense because it's a must-pass bill. And, of course, if you vote against it, you're voting against the troops. But if you vote for it, you're bankrupting the country and destroying our culture. That stuff must end. These seemed reasonable and easy. Ask for us and. And all members should be supportive of that. And if a leader can't support those things, if the leaders are too insecure to support them, they may not be the leader. [00:51:57][73.2]
TODD STARNES: [00:51:57] And closing here, Congressman, if the vote were held today for McCarthy, how many no votes from the Freedom Caucus do you believe the that that that he would get? [00:52:06][8.8]
CONGRESSMAN SCOTT PERRY (R-PA-10): [00:52:07] Well, Todd, you understand tactics and strategy; everybody and everything in Washington, D.C. is about counting the numbers or counting the money. So I can assure you that now, Kevin McCarthy does not have the votes needed to become speaker. [00:52:22][14.5]
TODD STARNES: [00:52:23] All right. We're going to leave it there, Congressman. We do appreciate your refreshing perspective on things here because you're right. We got to have some changes. You've got our support, Congressman, and we appreciate you. [00:52:35][11.7]
CONGRESSMAN SCOTT PERRY (R-PA-10): [00:52:36] Thank you, sir. God bless you and your audience. [00:52:37][1.5]
TODD STARNES: [00:52:38] All right. Congressman Scott Perry, wow. You can tell he's fired up, and I'm glad to hear somebody knows. [00:52:46][8.3]

Popular Curvy Ghanaian actress and Instagram model, Moesha Bodoung is currently in the United States for a vacation. This is according to Moesha Bodoung 's recent activity on the social media [Instagram].
A look at the picture which was tagged to have been taken at the Kotoka International Airport the popular actress is seen sitting in an aeroplane Wearing a kente-designed black t-shirt designed over a pair of blue jeans Moesha looks excited as she smiled for the picture. While this picture (post) looked very regular and got a lot of Moesha's followers wishing her well, many others are raising concerns over how she got the funds for the vacation saying she is a broke cheap Wh*re . Others saying , Moesha could not afford such a trip herself and does must reveal her sponsor.
Many of the sentiments shared by Moesha's followers is likely stemming from the fact that Moesha recently suggested that many Ghanaian ladies rely on 'sugar daddies' to survive the harsh economic conditions. In an interview with CNN in April, she confessed to depending on a married man for survival. According to her, Ghana's economy is so hard that women cannot survive on their own unless they depend on men – married ones. But after being bashed on the social media for her comments, Moesha seemed to have toned down and she recently revealed that she would be getting married soon. Meanwhile, Gambian actress, Princess Shyngle, who is also known to be one of friend of Moesha has also come under attack on social media over a video from her vacation in Amsterdam.


It's finally time to bring out the autumn makeup looks and I am super excited! In the warmer months, I am not one to go for a deeper toned smokey eye, however when autumn rolls around I like to vamp up my makeup. I wanted to create a wearable look for the season using just one eye shadow palette for you all! I really hope you enjoy the look. Let me know what you think in the comments below.
Step one – Base: After thoroughly cleansing and exfoliating, I prepped my skin using the Nivea Soft moisturizer. Once this had soaked in I applied the Dior forever foundation (£35) using a real techniques buffer brush.
Step two – Eyes: As always, I used the Anastasia dipbrow pomade (£15) in the shade medium brown to do my eyebrows, for this I used a Morphe angled brush and spoolie. I then set the brows using Rimmel brow this way brow gel (£4.49). Next I applied Collection lasting perfection concealer (£4.19) all over my eyelid and blended it out using a real techniques flat pointed foundation brush. I then went into the Zoeva Cocoa Blend palette (£18). I first took the cream shade 'Bitter Start' on a Morphe s27 brush and applied it all over the lid. Next, on the same brush I applied the light brown/tan colour 'Substitute For Love' roughly in my crease as a transition shade. Once this was blended out evenly I applied the very dark brown shade, 'Beans Are White' on the outer and inner portions of my eye using a Morphe s12 brush. I added this bit by bit and took my time being precise as I didn't want this dark shade to blend out too far. Once I was happy with this, I applied the bronze shimmer shade 'Subtle Blend' with my finger in the centre of my lid, to create a spotlight effect. I added a little of the gold shimmer, 'Pure Ganache' on top of that to brighten the shimmer a little. Next I applied the Liquid eyeliner from Asda George and created a small wing. I added Maybelline Great Lash mascara (£5.99). I applied the Eyeronic Lashes in the style Merida (£9.50).
Step three – Finishing: I applied the Collection lasting perfection concealer (£4.19) under my eyes, down the bridge of my nose, on the centre of my forehead and a little on my chin. I blended this out using the real techniques small foundation brush. I set my face using the Rimmel stay matte powder (£3.99) in the shade peach glow. I next used the contour shade from the Rimmel Kate Moss sculpting palette (£6.99) on a Morphe s13 brush to carve out my cheek bones. I also applied a little on my temples and around my hair line on my forehead. Then, using a real techniques contour brush, I applied Rimmel Lasting Finish blush (£3.99) in the shade Santa Rose. I highlighted my cheek bones, cupids bow and inner corner using the highlight powder from the Rimmel Kate Moss sculpting palette, I used a fluffy brush for this.
I chose Mac lipstick in the shade HoneyLove (£16.50).
That's the finished look! I absolutely love this look for autumn and will definitely be wearing it again soon.
Next Post Lipsticks I bought but don't use..
This palette looks so nice, and love the look too!
I love Zoeva palettes as a whole. Such great value and pigmentation!

The long-term challenges of short message service
Neil Sutton
TORONTO — The short message service (SMS) market has grown up to 600 per cent this year but adoption rates are a far cry from European and Japanese levels, according to one of the world's largest cell phone makers.
Manufacturers and leading carriers met Tuesday at the Yankee Group's North
American SMS and Mobile Messaging Forum to discuss ways to improve those adoption rates and the barriers that are still in their way.
Europe has a significant head-start on the U.S. and Canada. Experts in attendance at a carrier panel suggested it could be 2005 before North America even reaches European SMS penetration. Europe has built on a legacy of GSM networks for several years, said John Bunyan, senior vice-president of consumer offers for AT&T Wireless. North America, on the other hand, is fragmented between GSM and CDMA, two competing wireless networks. In Canada, GSM is the provenance of Rogers AT&T Wireless and Microcell, while Bell Mobility and Telus deliver services over CDMA.
""We're never going to have (uniform service) here,"" said Bunyan. ""I think that's going to be a limitation.""
But interoperability between networks and carriers has been a boon to the SMS market, said Adel Bazerghi, director of product development for wireless Internet and data at Bell Mobility. Agreements between the four major carriers to allow for interoperable messaging were announced at the Communications 2001 conference last year.
What hasn't changed, however, are fundamental differences between European and North American payment structures for basic wireline services. Bazerghi pointed out that most local calls over land lines aren't free like they are here. ""This is North America, not Europe. We're close cousins, but we are different,"" he said. ""SMS started out as a cheap substitute for voice (in Europe).""
Another stumbling block for the North American cell phone market is the technology lag. More sophisticated cell phones routinely come out in Europe and Japan, well ahead of North American releases. Nokia's Communicator, for example, was only released here this summer. It had been available for more than a year in other parts of the world.
""In North America, probably the biggest single thing is consumer awareness,"" said Gerry Christensen, director of wireless data service for VeriSign. ""Probably only one or two people out of 10 would know what (SMS) is.""
Nokia's forthcoming 3650, however, will be released simultaneously in North America, Europe and Japan. The phone includes a built-in camera which can be used to take and send pictures. It's part of a move from SMS to MMS — multimedia message service, which could include sending graphics, audio and text files to other enabled devices.
""We see MMS as just the evolution of person to person communication,"" said Nokia's director of imaging services for the Americas, Randy Roberts.
But isn't a move to more advanced services a little premature? It's time to take advantage of the technology that's available now, said Roberts. ""Today we have GPRS and 1X (networks) that are realistically going to give us 14K types of speeds. If we are going to make money today, we need to use those networks today.""
He said that SMS services have been available in the U.K. for about six years, but really didn't find a niche until two years ago. The uptake of SMS in the U.S. has been comparatively faster, he said.
To push that adoption further, AT&T Wireless in the U.S. has allied itself with the Fox television network, and its hit series American Idol in particular. He said MMS is ""an illusive target on this continent,"" but insists that North Americans are willing to pay monthly charges for services above and beyond voice capability. In a joint marketing campaign between AT&T and Fox, American Idol viewers could subscribe to polls, updates, trivia and quotes from contestants over their cell phones. AT&T broadcast an SMS message to 75,000 users in the 18-43 age bracket — though some recipients complained of spam. ""It's an area for exploration,"" said Bunyan, ""but cautious exploration, given that these are valuable customers for the carriers.""
Bunyan estimates that SMS is responsible for 16 per cent of carrier revenue in Europe — but it isn't a drop in the bucket for North American telcos yet. But by adding services like music, games, interactive TV and location-based services, that could change, he said. ""These are the best shots we have.""

RIPON: Wolseley UK is entering three rafts in the Great Ripon Raft Race that takes place at the canal basin, in the city's Boroughbridge Road, on Saturday 27 August.
Wolseley has two rafts from its Melmerby Distribution Centre and one from Boroughbridge Road head office.

DJ Envy gets slammed by Gucci Mane. Mane says he is banned from The Breakfast Club!!

This incident started in 2016. In an interview for The Breakfast Club, Gucci accused co-host Angela Yee of pursuing him sexually. Gucci Mane is addressing all claims that Power 105.1's The Breakfast Club banned him.
On Monday, a video came on YouTube, which gave more insight into the matter. 39-year-old Gucci had a conversation with Charlamagne Tha God. The title of the clip was Growth with Gucci: A conversation with Gucci Mane and Charlamagne Tha God. In the interview, Charlamagne asked Gucci about the rumors regarding his ban from a radio show.
Gucci said in reference to his co-host Angela Yee that "It came from that punk a- bitch." He also added, "And DJ Envy- he's a p–, too. Envy's a p–, man".That was quite clear, wasn't it? Gucci further said DJ Envy was there the day people's court thing was going on. He was with the girl. Charlamagne is also a host of The Breakfast Club. Gucci said Envy didn't have it in him to show his face after what he did. Gucci wanted a confrontation and wanted to ask him if he had anything to say. He wanted to hear what Envy had to say regarding the matter.
Gucci also had something more to say. He said, "I' ma confront him about what he and Angela did, and if he comes at me wrong, I'ma slap the s- out of him. It ain't gonna be his first time getting slapped." We should take notes on how not to make Gucci mad. He is clearly angry at everything and wants some answers.
In the interview, Gucci said that 43-year-old Yee wanted to have sexual relations with him. Yee directly denied the allegations, and the conversation leads to the rumors that Gucci will not be allowed on the show anymore. But recently, Yee expressed no one ever banned Gucci from the show and denied any allegations of wanting to have a sexual relationship with him. However, she said Gucci wanted to sort out things with her.
Gucci replied to Angela's comment that he never apologized to her, nor did he want to. Envy also responded to Gucci's threats directly on Instagram. Yee did not respond immediately for comment. She is yet to comment to address Gucci.
Me and My Dog..🤣🤣🤣… Welllllll… @cthagod gave me a heads up when this interview was done and I told him play it.. This isn't the 1st time I've been threatened by an artist and probably won't be the last time… I never been slapped, or snuffed or jumped before so not sure where that came from… but funny by all means… @laflare1017 was never banned from the @breakfastclubam When asked, "Would I do an interview without Yee…" My reply was, "I will not do anything unless you clear it with my co-worker.. We call that riding for your team where I'm from!!! And he's upset because my coworker defended herself… Never in a million years will I tell my co-hosts what to say or what not to say.. We share that platform.. When Gucci did that post about Yee, she defended herself on the Breakfast Club and he's mad because "I let her do it"…. I Have never ran from a Conversation in my life… My Kids are good, my wife is great and My Dog is excellent… Anyway, I heard some lies and wanted to address it… Back to enjoying Paris… 🇫🇷

1-3 PM Workshop (How to Understand & Use DNA Research, presenter Mr. James Larry Vick) - Allen County Public Library Genealogy Center (900 Library Plaza) in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
3-5 PM Workshop (Set up your own Relative Finder, presenter Mr. Gailen Vick) - Allen County Public Library Genealogy Center (900 Library Plaza) in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
12 Noon - Box lunch Saturday at Allen County Public Library Genealogy Center (900 Library Plaza) in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
Planning for our 24-26 Jun 2016 Joseph Vick Family of America Annual Meeting in Fort Wayne, IN. The JVFOA Board selected Fort Wayne, Indiana for our meeting location for 2016. Best Western Luxbury Inn Fort Wayne is our selected hotel, but most of our time will be at the Allen County Public Library Genealogy Center (900 Library Plaza) in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
Meetings include genealogy workshops, local historic events, and relevant topics including DNA analysis and seminars. With one of the largest samples of DNA testing from our members, orphans and adopted individuals have been able to find their Vick roots. In addition, visits to local historic sites, libraries and courthouses have been arranged to further our genealogical research.
Mr. John Beatty will be the featured speaker on Saturday, June 25, 2016. He will review Joseph Vick of Lower Parish, Isle of Wight County, Virginia, a meticulously researched, edited and indexed book by Mr. Beatty and Di Ann Vick that documents Joseph Vick's first five generations of descendants in this country.
The Joseph Vick Family of America gathered for its annual meeting on Friday, 24 June 2016 in Fort Wayne, Indiana. President Gailen Vick welcomed 28 Vicks of various ages, and as always, we were excited to be together. Our home base for the weekend was the Roxbury Inn Best Western, and they worked hard and willingly to accommodate our group.
After initial registration by treasurer Laura Wikey, we had workshops conducted by Gailen and James Larry Vick. As we all settled in, preparations were made for our dinner, catered in by a local restaurant (it was yummy!) and we were entertained by local business man Bill Hartman. Bill owns an insurance agency and is a volunteer "booster" for the city he loves. A proud native son, his charming anecdotes kept us laughing and his civic pride is quite evident.
Following a wrap up of business and an overview of the weekend plans, we all drifted away to rest or to visit with each other. Saturday will come soon.
A nice addition to our weekends is always the breakfast room in our hotels, as it gives us an opportunity to get together informally and catch up. Board members meander into our meeting room and address the immediate business of our association, and proposal of a slate of officers. We follow with a general membership meeting, recording of minutes and an election.
This year we were able to make use of the facilities at the Allen County Public Library, known as having one of the finest and most extensive genealogy departments in the nation. Both Larry and Gailen conducted workshops which were open to the public. Larry always has the most up-to-date information on our DNA project and we are so fortunate to have him working on behalf of the JVFOA. We were honored to be joined later in the afternoon by John Beatty, Genealogy Director at the library and co-author (with DiAnn Vick) of The Book. Joseph Vick and Descendents of Southhampton and Isle of Wight Counties covers the first 8 generations of the Vicks in what became the United States of America. We also held our annual silent auction with articles of curiosity or history connected to the Vick families.
Everyone made their way back to the hotel where we could gather in small groups and do a little more visiting because many of us only get "face time" once a year. It is wonderful to get to know and love our many far-flung cousins.
Sunday is always bittersweet as we say goodbye and exchange hugs, but in 2016, we were able to say: "Next year in Virginia!"
We hope to have a good crowd in Suffolk, Virginia, just adjacent to Courtland, where we are planning to stay at the Hampton Inn, 23 June to 25 June - more details will be coming as the dates approach.

If there was nobody in my pocket, generating several rebates from my insurance they would behave toward someone looking to get more deeply buried beneath them. You can do this is a way to savings those shoppers in the beginning.

Alabama State University to Expand Preschool Opportunities for the State's Children
Filed in HBCUs on April 26, 2019
Historically Black Alabama State University has signed an agreement with the Montgomery Community Action Head Start program which will allow some of the agency's pre-K children to attend the university's Zelia Stephens Early Childhood Center. The new partnership aims to expand quality preschool opportunities in Montgomery County and the state of Alabama.
"This agreement is one of the first of its kind in the nation," said Quinton T. Ross, president of Alabama State University. "This is truly a historic moment. When you think about our theme of CommUniversity, this truly embodies that. That's what this is all about, our most precious resource, our children."
Head Start is a comprehensive child development program funded by the federal government. The program prepares participating children for kindergarten and further educational success, and also promotes self-sufficiency in children and their parents. As part of this new partnership, early childhood education students at Alabama State will have the opportunity to work with Head Start families.
"Educating our young kids is an ASU commitment. The collaborative partnership signed today will help do that," said President Ross at the agreement signing ceremony. "Working with children at a very early age gives them a head start on life, an opportunity to succeed. So we are excited to be a part of that. We will continue to work to grow the partnership, to ensure it's the model for the state and the nation."

Giuseppe in South Korea: First Impressions
안녕 하세요, 이름이 쥬세뻬입니다, 그리고 서울에서 네월에 교환학생 이었었습니다.
Hello, my name is Giuseppe and I recently returned from Seoul, where I studied for four months as an exchange student through John Cabot University's Going Global Program.
Don't worry, my Korean skills do not go beyond this level, so the rest of my tale will be in English (although I might drop some useful Korean words here and there!).
대국기, the Korean flag, against the sky over the mountains.
I'd like to tell you about my study abroad experience very far away from home, as I spent four months in the East-most prolongation of the Eurasian continent. Four months in a state (Korea) that has been uninterruptedly united for more than 1,400 years, until it split into the Republic of Korea and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea at the end of the Second World War. Four months during which I learned for the first time about Asia, opening myself to a totally new world. But first, let me introduce myself more in detail.
Cherry blossoms in March.
I come from Palermo, Sicily's largest city, at the heart of the Mediterranean Sea. There I spent my life before moving to study at John Cabot University in Rome, where I currently study International Affairs, Economics and History. I have traveled around Europe, mostly to Spain, but also to Colombia and to New York. I have always felt a persistent attraction to the West throughout my life, most likely because of my exposure to it. Then, in early 2016, a few good friends and instructors recommended me to visit South Korea for my exchange semester, as JCU has an exchange agreement with a university in Seoul. Thus, after serious consideration, came the decision to go to Seoul, where I landed on February 24.
I must confess that I suffered from a strong culture shock when I arrived in Korea. Despite the constant support from my loved ones back home and my buddy in Seoul, I struggled a lot to adapt to a completely new, unknown lifestyle, as well as to the freezing temperatures (-5°C, while being nothing remarkable to many, was shocking as I came from the mild 15° of Southern Italy). Another obstacle was the language, as English was not as diffuse
as I had expected.
Hiking with a group of international friends.
I started my six courses at Sookmyung Women's University (숙명여자대학교), the partner institution I was selected to study at. I learned later on that, given that Korea's deeply Neo-Confucian society had completely subordinated women to men, in the early 20th century Koreans organized several institutions dedicated to women's higher education to fill this gender gap. Coming from an American university in Rome whose students come from more than 70 different nations, studying in a mono-ethnic (Korean), mono-gender (women) institution was a completely new experience. I never received so much attention as when I walked across campus and people looked at me, shocked at seeing a western man as their classmate! My international colleagues who look even more Western than me, must have felt the same.
Then, slowly but steadily, the recovery to my initial culture shock came. I met fellow students who like me had just landed in Seoul from Sweden, Germany, Finland, France, the US, as well as other international students who had already spent one semester there. I made friendship with some Koreans who always proved formidable hosts. These people have turned into trusted friends and great companions in my journey of discovery. I thank them for the company and the great experiences.

# TODO to make (even) more resilient:
#  - Wait for daemon to be running before executing docker commands
#  - Check if jq is installed
#  - Make sure bash is v4.3 or later. Can't do until all Azure nodes on the latest version
#  - Make sure we are not running as local system. Can't do until all Azure nodes are updated.
#  - Error if docker versions are not equal. Can't do until all Azure nodes are updated
#  - Error if go versions are not equal. Can't do until all Azure nodes are updated.
#  - Error if running 32-bit posix tools. Probably can take from bash --version and check contains "x86_64"
#  - Warn if the CI directory cannot be deleted afterwards. Otherwise turdlets are left behind
#  - Use %systemdrive% ($SYSTEMDRIVE) rather than hard code to c: for TEMP
#  - Consider cross builing the Windows binary and copy across. That's a bit of a heavy lift. Only reason

Moreover you can learn more about the Cerebral Palsy Guidance https://www.cerebralpalsyguidance.com/ is a comprehensive informational website on cerebral palsy. As someone who's lived with cerebral palsy since infancy, I know how critical it is for parents of a child with CP to have access to reliable and comprehensive information on this complex condition.


We are on the Whole 30 again this month, so we are limiting our use of these veggies a little bit. I added some non-Whole 30 options so that you don't have to suffer with us.
Green Leaf Lettuce – Once again, this is getting turned into salad for lunches and a dinner side. 2 heads should last us all week.
Cucumbers – These will get chopped up for salads and turned into spears for snacks. If you are having dairy, I suggest slicing these and making a salad with sour cream, dill, and onions.
Carrots – We'll shred a few for salads and then probably roast the rest. I might grab one for an afternoon snack. If we weren't on the Whole 30, I'd use the tops to make some pesto and eat it with burrata cheese.
Zucchini – We turned a few of these into zucchini noodles with a spiral attachment for our Kitchenaid mixer and making a quick cherry tomato sauce with basil and chicken sausage. We'll slice up the rest and roast it in the oven with some spices as a side dish.
Basil – We cut half of this into a chiffonade and put it in the zucchini noodles with the cherry tomato sauce. We'll use the rest for pesto or adding to a fresh vegetable salad. We are on the Whole 30 again this month, so we're foregoing putting this on homemade pizza or caprese salad.
Scallions – We'll include the scallions in salads, in breakfast bowls, or in carnitas bowls.

As the severe weather which was forecast for today failed to materialise and because tomorrow's forecast has been downgraded to light snow in the afternoon, it is our intention to open as normal.
Should there be an unexpected heavy fall in the night we will let you know first thing in the morning if the situation regarding opening changes. Should there be any significant snow during the day we may have to close early, so please have a contingency plan, but once again we will keep you informed as the day progresses.
The scheduled play rehearsal for those involved will still go ahead unless the school is forced to close early.
Thank you for your understanding during this very unpredictable weather.


I bought another nail polish that I "needed"
Because really how many pink nail polishes does a girl need? To me this must be countless because my pink nail polishes continue to grow.
I saw Essie's Boom Boom Room being talked about a lot on YouTube and various bloggers. The pictures and all the hype sucked me in.
I went on a hunt to get it.
Above photo captured in direct sunlight. Better representation of true colour.
When I see this colour I only think one thing, Barbie.
This is a typical Barbie pink, a bright blue based pink; I absolutely love it. It's opaque in two coats and has a nice creme finish. Love again. You definitely need a topcoat with this polish. It dries matte and any topcoat makes it look like it does in the bottle.
I tried this on the other day and application was a breeze. No white nail polish base was required which was also great!
When I first glanced at the polish it reminded me of Essie's Knockout Pout. Side by side they are similar but Boom Boom Room is brighter and more blue toned. While Knockout Pout is a warmer pink. Do you need both? Probably not. Would I recommend both? YES!
I know I'm going to get a lot of use out of Essie Boom Boom Room during the summer! Will be trying it on my toes next.
Highly recommend this polish! All the colours in the Neon Collection look great but I resisted to just one!
