On the first day, after walking along the provincial road exiting from Torriglia, pass the Buffalora tunnel towards Monte Lavagnola on the right. When you are on the hill of Monte Lavagnola, you must go RIGHT towards the Scoffera pass and always follow the AVML path marked with the initials AVML, when the path branches off, take the road signposted VM (Via del Mare) on the right, always the blue signs (two blue dots on the stones) up to the asphalt road. Follow the blue dots to Sant 'Allberto di Bargagli and, at the ROSABRUNA restaurant, follow the marked path with the new wooden VM signs with yellow writing and you will find the trail signs, then once you get to Mount Bado, take to Case Becco -Sori. Once in Case Becco (asphalted road with few cars) you walk left for 5 km to Colle Caprile from where you take the path VM that you find going left, well signposted with the sign VM and from here to the Passo Casetti just above Uscio.Scendere on this beautiful path and after 15 minutes you have arrived in Uscio, take the asphalt road to the right and always follow the trail signs (3 red balls) that will lead you in 3 min to the B & B Rif.Uscio.
From the B & B Uscio follow the signpost 3 red dots and the VM signs right at the exit from the B & B Rif.Uscio. Follow all the new disdain, arrive at the Colonia Arnaldi, continue and always follow the signs VM and you get to the Pass Spinarola. From Passo Spinarola, new signage of the Portofino Park with signs and new trail signs! Always staying on our track, the path VM winds through the woods and you arrive at the Passo del Gallo, from where you can see the two gulfs: Rapallo on the left and on the right Recco. The path continues without any problem, it is easy and well marked up to the junction that separates the road to Ruta di Camogli indicated with VM from that for Recco. (A triangle) Shortly after you arrive on the asphalt road and take a left to reach Ruta.You arrive in the center in 10 min and climb the stairs of the church of Ruta and walk VM becomes Ruta-San Fruttuoso, a wonderful and easy path (starting from Ruta and not Ran Rocco which is more challenging) and you enter the Park of Portofino. From there to the summit of Monte di Portofino, then easily descend to Pietre Strette and then to Portofino or San Fruttuoso, where the clear water of the Park will welcome you for a refreshing dip in the blue.

Homethis day in crime history: april 19, 1995
April 19, 2014 John DuMond History, True Crime1995, bomb, crime, history, mass murder, murder, Oklahoma City, terrorism, Timothy McVeigh, true crime
On this date in 1995, a terrorist bomb was detonated outside the federal building in Oklahoma City, killing 168 people, including 19 children under the age of six. Almost 700 people were injured.
An hour and a half after the bombing, an Oklahoma State Trooper pulled over a car that did not have a license plate. The driver, Timothy McVeigh, was arrested for unlawfully carrying a weapon. McVeigh was soon linked to the bombing by forensic evidence. The investigation led to accomplices Terry Nichols, Michael Fortier, and Fortier's wife Lori. McVeigh, Nichols and Fortier met while they were in the Army. They were motivated by the deadly raid on the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, TX by the FBI in 1993. The bombing took place on the anniversary of the raid.
McVeigh and Nichols were both convicted of murder and conspiracy. McVeigh was sentenced to death. He was executed by lethal injection on June 11, 2001. Nichols was sentenced to life without possibility of parole. He is currently housed at the Administrative Maximum (ADX) facility at the Florence Federal Correctional Complex in Florence, CO.
Michael Fortier agreed to testify against McVeigh and Nichols in exchange for immunity for his wife and a lighter sentence for him. He was sentenced to 12 years in prison and a $75,000 fine. He was released after 10 1/2 years and disappeared into the witness protection program.
Some people believe that there were more people involved with the bombing. Theories include involvement by members of militia groups and middle eastern terrorists. The FBI dismisses these theories and considers the case closed.

Mike Street Station says:
I was working at the DEA at the time. We wheeled in a TV to watch the news coverage, and couldn't believe what we were seeing.
If memory serves, the Federal Protective Service went on a major hiring spree soon after that incident.
This story still give me the shudders, and that's years AFTER I left the Treasury Dept.
I thought McVeigh wanted to die by another method (old age was ruled out immediately)?
Seems euthanasia was just too damn GOOD for this terrorist.
Roll safe.

Why webinspect? Anyone interested in IT security, professional or amateur, may at some point have a reason for getting a safe sneak preview on a website before letting one get exposed to it's content. This project may aim slightly more at professionals and geeks, but anyone can use it for free.
Information on what web server is used.
Detection of binary content, regardless of what information is sent from the HTTP get response.
Detection of links listed as malicious. Webinspect uses malc0de lists, updated on a daily basis. Currently, only the submitted URL is checked, but soon all links within the target URL will be checked.
Secure analysis. All retrieved content is handled by Webinspect. No content or side effects will be executed in your browser. This will also make it easier for security analysts to quickly view a potentially malicious target without the need for locked down computers or proxy/firewall openings.
Choose your own user agent. This is of course a faked user agent, but security wise it can be interesting to see the difference in retrieved content depending on what web browser or operating system is loading the page. List of user agents will grow.
Other features can be added of course. The future of Webinspect will depend on features I would prefer, your input and ideas, and last but not the least my programming skills.
Take a look at Webinspect on http://webinspect.arbi.se. At the moment, a username and password is needed. This is because Webinspect is only in beta phase, and I would also like to have control of how the tool is used and lessen the risk of overloading the tool and the server. A login can be requested at the webiste. There is also a forum you can register to.
At the moment I believe that update information and bug discussions are better placed at the forum, and general discussions could take place here. We'll see. Short information on major changes will be announced on Twitter.


Whenever people hear the phrase "get paid to travel", they dismiss the idea as a pipe dream. Paid to sightsee? Pft, how impossible.
But picture this: you're sitting on a comfortable, newly upholstered chaise longue.
At the small table before you sits a fresh bowl of crisp salad, generously drizzled with your favorite sauce.
A generous drink stands loyally at its side, and as you lay back and stretch your legs out, you gaze at the gentle Spanish seashore and marvel at the breathtaking view.
Does this seem like a dream come true?
Most of us dream of uprooting and learning about ourselves by testing our wills through wild, wonderful adventures. And of course–no one wants to work in a dull, dreary office.
Why resign yourself to the cubicle life when you could experience so much more?
If you've ever thought about exploring the world and seeing the most beautiful, culturally rich destinations on the planet, then here's the good news: It's wonderfully, entirely possible.
Oh, but you can. You can absolutely get paid to travel.
The most important thing to know is that you won't necessarily be staying in fancy, five-star hotels while eating caviar.
That, unfortunately, is almost always reserved for the uber-rich. What you can do, though, is enjoy homestays, eat homemade food, visit places that you've seen in your books and magazines, and live a pretty fine life.
Pro tip: The main key to surviving away from home is to downsize. Don't get caught up trying to prove your wealth or amazing to life to your followers on Instagram.
Live on less: if you think about it, what do you really need to survive?
Do you have to go out every night, or drink that much alcohol?
Do you always have to eat out, or could you make some meals from your own kitchen?
Do you have to live in a nice apartment by yourself, or would you be willing to share a house with other people?
Do you have to drive your own car, or would you be okay with taking public transportation?
By taking these small steps, you can build up a considerable little wad of cash that you can use to finance the first leg of your journey: getting out of the country.
After you save enough money, create an itinerary.
Research low-cost, high-quality places to stay.
Figure out how much you would have to earn to live comfortably there: for example, in Indonesia, one person can live quite nicely for $1000 a month. Where's the destination of your dreams, and how much does the plane ticket cost to get there?
How is the Internet? (Some of the methods we're listing will require a good connection).
In many ways, English is a blessing. It's often used as the language in business–in the United States, but also in South East Asian countries.
And since South East Asian countries also host some of the most beautiful cultural icons in the world–Angkor Wat in Thailand, and Ha Long Bay in Vietnam.
You don't have to become an accredited teacher–you could just start a small, home-based tutoring business.
If you'd like to make big bucks, though, go for a certification that lets you teach English (a popular one is the TEFL, or Teaching English as a Foreign Language exam).
Most international schools will offer you a competitive salary if you have accreditation as a teacher or a bachelor's degree. But if you prefer flexibility, then you can simply teach English from home or online.
2. Write sales letters for companies.
Companies are always looking for people to write for them.
If you can write a killer sales letter (check out AWAI's course on the art of selling), you can pitch your services to businesses through cold-calls or cold-emails. The best part about writing these types of content for customers is that you never have to show up in the office to make your money.
If you don't enjoy writing sales letters, but you're great at other forms of content–copy, articles, fun and informative blogs–you can always pitch those services instead.
Do you have experience in marketing or branding?
Being a brand consultant is a lucrative business, and it's one of the few jobs where you can keep working until you get really old and pruney and feel like retiring.
If you've built businesses before, then it's entirely possible to use your expertise–whether it's as a CEO or a startup founder or the head of a specific department–to consult for businesses that are looking to grow.
Handmade crafts are a dying art in the modern world, but the demand for them is often very high.
Fortunately, you can find plenty of suppliers in countries like the Philippines.
If you're the craftsy type, search for goods that you think would find success–then sell them back home. If you love handmade beaded jewelry, for example, you could visit a local market and find a creative maker, then partner with them to create a line of luxury beaded necklaces.
Or–you could export spices to your home country.
The possibilities are limitless: the hard part is picking and sticking to a niche.
5. Become a tour guide.
Is there an international destination that you know incredibly well?
If so, you could share that knowledge with other visitors from your country and help them see the location as you do. Tours that cater to international folks tend to be stale and boring, and most visitors only ever visit the tourist traps.
You could change the lives of visitors by showing them the true side of the destinations they're visiting.
You could join a tourist agency, where you'll often get a salary, or create your own by coordinating with experienced local tour guides. Themed tours, for example, can be fun and memorable.
The cons: starting a business is never easy.
Also, if you're going solo, you won't have a guaranteed source of income. You'll have to be prepared to be outgoing and friendly at all times, so avoid this if you prefer to work alone.
Think about the skills you have.
Or write really good speeches?
If you have a laptop and access to great Internet, then all you have to do is market those skills.
Sites like Upwork and Fiverr are two of the best freelance sites, connecting you to millions of possible clients, and they're great for applying to international freelance gigs.
However, you can also search RemoteOK, a massive job board dedicated exclusively for remote work (it was started by a digital nomad).
If you plan on freelancing, then it's best to start your career before you make the move. That way, you'll have a great portfolio for your potential clients to look at, and you'll also (hopefully) have repeat clients.
Some marketable skills you can sell: graphic design, translation, editing, coding, web development and design, etc.
If you feel like you don't have any marketable skills, then learn one!
There are plenty of online courses dedicated to teaching you different skills–they're often much more valuable than college degrees because they teach you how to build something.
Here's a list of over 25 companies who hiring remote workers!
7. Work as a nanny or au pair.
An au pair is an international nanny who lives with a family for a specific period of time. In return for taking care of your client's children, you will receive room and board, travel expenses, and some pocket money.
Most clients seek au pairs who are women, and many people who choose to work as au pairs tend to be young–usually, they're students or recent graduates.
If you'd like to experience a lovely city and love children, this option could help you satisfy your wanderlust cravings.
Pro tip: you won't always have to learn your client's language in order to work as their au pair.
Most speak basic English, and many couples will even request that you speak to their children in English so that they can learn the language.
8. Become a destination wedding photographer.
Destination weddings are all the rage, and being a photographer is both a glamorous and grueling occupation. In Asia, wedding photographers are often up at two in the morning on the day of the wedding to take photos.
The bride starts getting her makeup done at 3 in the morning, and the day often starts with a religious ceremony in the morning, before moving to a grand reception in the evening.
If you're a great photographer, you could apply to an agency in the country where you'd like to be based.
Nomina Pictures in Indonesia, for example, sends their clients to Japan, Italy, Singapore, Thailand, and many other places.
If you have a portfolio already, then you could also start your own one-man wedding company.
Many destination wedding photographers charge thousands of dollars for a single wedding or pre-wedding photo shoot. Though the barrier entry is high, working as a destination wedding photographer can help you earn big bucks that'll ensure you'll be living in luxury.
9. Work as a developer.
This technically could be lumped in with "Go freelance," but being a web developer is a highly valuable skill.
Your knowledge of different programming languages and systems can nab you an enticing salary. Toggl, for example, pays starting developers EUR 44,000 a year, and you can work from anywhere in the world.
A large majority of remote job listings seek experienced developers.
And–since your work is 100% on a computer, there's really no need to come into the office.
Which one do you prefer: working on your computer in a frigid office, or working on your computer in a beach bungalow?
Building a website based on a niche you enjoy or know a lot about is a great way to build passive income.
You can monetize it by connecting it to Amazon Affiliates, or by placing ads on it (many people use Google Adsense).
The best thing about building a website? You can work on it from anywhere in the world, as long as you have a decent Internet connection.
There are plenty of topics that you can write about: tech tips, cultural destinations all around the world, product reviews (that's easy to monetize).
You could even write about your own globetrotting journey, and inspire others to start their own digital nomad life.
Disclaimer: creating a website can be tough. It requires time and effort, and you won't see results for a year or more.
Many travel bloggers, for example, spend at least a year building their sites, and during that time they constantly have to churn out content to make sure they get traffic.
You'll also have to handle the marketing, finances, and growth of your site. If you're up for the challenge, then starting a niche website can be a great way to get paid for traveling.
11. Become an influencer or model.
Yes, we know, we know–ugh.
But if you want to get paid to travel, becoming a high-profile influencer is one of the most effective ways to do so. As an influencer, you'll often get reimbursed for the promotions that you create.
And if you land the right clients, they'll often fly you out for photoshoots. Many beauty bloggers are paid by companies to go on trips that increase the brand's awareness.
It's a win-win: you get to go to some pretty amazing places, and they get more exposure.
Still, being an influencer or model isn't easy–and to tell you the truth, none of the methods on this list are.
If you want the luxury of getting paid to travel, it's important that you put in the work and effort that the endeavor needs. Otherwise, you'll be stuck panhandling at the airport, trying to scrabble up enough change to fly home.
Good luck, fellow wanderer! Let us know the ways you get paid to travel–we'd love to hear your own experiences.

Need to Know – The latest US media & marketing news: Instagram's new ad service, Fifa sponsors react to Blatter's resignation & Pinterest debuts 'buy' button
By Rebecca Stewart-03 June 2015 12:09pm
Need to Know – The latest US media & marketing news
Morning all, here's a glimpse at all the media and marketing news you should know today.
1. Instagram users should gear up for more ads, reports Time. The Facebook-owned social network is expanding its ad service to all marketers, meaning anyone can buy space on the platform. The photo-sharing site is also testing a format that would allow viewers to click on a link to purchase products or install apps.
2. Fifa sponsors have reacted to Sepp Blatter's resignation, writes Business Insider. Coca-Cola said the announcement was "a positive step for the good of sport, football and its fans", while Visa said the move will help rebuild public trust, but "more work lies ahead". Adidas and McDonald's also released statements.
3. BuzzFeed has tapped PepsiCo's marketing executive Frank Cooper for the newly-created role of chief marketing officer and chief creative officer, according to AdAge. Cooper will oversee the publisher's creative services team and manage its market research, business-to-business and consumer marketing.
4. Pinterest's long-awaited 'buy' button will debut this summer. The Wall Street Journal claims that the San Francisco startup won't take a cut of each transaction, but by summer, merchants who post a buyable pin will have the option to pay to turn it into a promoted pin.
5. YouTube has crowned Turkish Airlines' 'Kobe vs. Messi: The Selfie Shootout' as its ad of the decade, asserts AdWeek. The 2013 spot was awarded the title by the public as part of YouTube's 10th anniversary celebrations. The runner-up was Volkswagen's beloved 2011 Super Bowl campaign featuring Little Vader.
6. Apple's Tim Cook has delivered a strong attack on Facebook and Google over privacy, notes the Guardian. The chief executive did not mention the firms by name, but used his speech at the Epic Champions of Freedom event in Washington to criticize advertising-supported business models over their disregard for users' privacy.
7. For the first time ever Amazon is launching a free shipping option for thousands of small items like cosmetics, in-ear headphones and mobile phone accessories, says Forbes. The move targets shoppers that are watching their budget and those who may be more inclined to finalize a sale after seeing the new feature.
8. And Vimeo has rolled out its subscription video tools. Re\code reports that the IAC-owned video site is now giving users the option to create monthly subscriptions and will give them 90 per cent of the revenue after deducting transaction fees.

Well, I suppose it had to happen eventually. After releasing a string of five outstanding singles, GFriend have returned with a song that feels dangerously close to "so-so." Though a momentary drop in quality is inevitable for most groups, GFriend have been on such a roll these past few years. Their "powerful innocence" concept and sound has resulted in an ever-increasing blast of densely produced, high-tempo pop anthems. Some felt that the ultra-80's Fingertip went too far in this direction, which may be the reason that Love Whisper (귀를 기울이면) runs away from any sense of dance pop bombast. But while the song is already doing well in Korea, it comes at the expense of the group's individual color.
In some ways, Love Whisper is as GFriend as GFriend gets, but mostly it sounds like a generic post-Luv Apink track. On first listen, the song's lack of ambition feels like a devastating blow, squandering every bit of excitement the girls had built up. Further plays help to ingratiate this sound, but when it comes down to it Love Whisper just isn't as interesting as GFriend's past title tracks.
This is surprising, as the group continues to work with the Iggy/Youngbae production duo who have steered them so well thus far. Traces of Me Gustas Tu's hazy, summertime sheen remain, but there is no addictive hook to bring it all together. Instead, the girls rely on a generic melody that maintains a consistently pleasant energy rather than impress with its sense of dynamics. The instrumental's prominent up-beat is a nice touch, though it doesn't go far enough to imbue the track with the kind of power we're used to hearing from the group. And that's really the problem. Love Whisper is by no means a bad song, but it's miles away from being a great Gfriend song.
Tags: gfriend, k-pop, kpop, rating 7, review. Bookmark the permalink.
What worries me the most is that this will trap GFriend in this innocent concept and put them in the same cycle as APink. Every GFriend title track so far has been pointing them in a natural progression of maturity while still maintaining their signature sound, but this feels like stepping back to square one. Fingertip was so overlooked, and it's possible that Source could even be hesitant about Navillera as well. Even though the song performed well, coming off of such a huge hit like Rough that was to be expected regardless of the release. Love Whisper has grown on me since first listen after watching the first performances, but it doesn't have the distinctiveness of their other title tracks which were immediately identifiable as GFriend and could come from any girl group.
I've yet to see any girl group maintain this concept indefinitely without sacrificing song potential, and, eventually, the same level of success as people jump ship for a newer, younger group with a similar concept with an updated version of the sound.
I'm hoping this will be just a one off due to it being summer release and Source trying to play it extra safe after Fingertip's (undeserved) lackluster chart performance for the group.
When the groups was new, and with "Me gustas tu", I thought they have the chance to establish itself as one of the top girlgroups. But feels like they have missed that chance with some less good songs and stuck in this kind of concept.
I think they're still one of the top groups of their era, but I hope they don't feel the need to keep up with groups like Twice at the expense of expanding their own unique style and sound.
Feels like they are limiting themself to small part of the Korean market with this kind of music. Even if some international kpop-fans also like it, I think they, as me, get a bit tired of the cute concepts in the long run. But I guess they will do what pays their bills.


A smaller version of this one, same colors and stainless steel hardware. But not the same hardware: I still haven't found stainless steel halter squares smaller than 3/4", so I used spiked rings in place of those, the same ones used in drop nosebands. They work great in this case.

The pitch deck for the infamous failed Fyre Festival has been leaked, and much like every other aspect of the disastrous event, it has to be seen to be believed.
Almost two years after the "festival" took place, Fyre is more relevant than ever, thanks to the Netflix documentary FYRE: The Greatest Party That Never Happened and Hulu's Fyre Fraud..
People all over the world are in complete shock that such a monumental f*ck up was allowed to happen on such a huge scale, and right before our very eyes. But, if we've learned anything from Fyre Festival, it's that social media isn't what it seems, and to never trust Billy McFarland.
The latter became evidently clear in both Fyre documentaries, but more evidence has just emerged as someone has leaked the pitch deck for the event on LinkedIn, and if we didn't know better - we'd assume it was some sort of humorous parody.
In between ridiculously over exaggerated statistics and Fyre puns, it's a pretty incredible read.
The leaked deck was uploaded by Alvin Hussey, who highlighted his favourite point as being "what if we reimagined what it means to attend a music festival?" Well, I'm sure being stranded on an island in the Bahamas with no water to drink, no music, virtually no food and nothing to natural disaster relief tents to sleep in isn't exactly what the guests had in mind when they thought they were attending a festival.
Anyone who watched either of the documentaries knows that in the days leading up to the "festival", organisers were yet to confirm an official line up, and it's no surprise after reading in the deck: "We take no direct liability for any bookings made with FYRE. Each agreement is between talent and the buyer." So, put simply Fyre didn't guarantee any of their own bookings. Incredible stuff.
It goes on to invite investors to "Come, seek, for searching is the foundation of fortune," which is ironic considering the festival quite literally turned into a free-for-all as guests scavenged for bedding, water and food.

The compassionate connection programs' purpose is to teach preschool through grade school students an appropriate use of touch called the helping hands technique.
Through the use of helping hands the children experience a greater sense of belonging and connection to with others. The process generates a positive and caring attitude towards peers, thereby increasing measurable pro-social behaviors in decreasing problem behaviors.
Dr. John E. Upledger, founder of the Upledger Institute, director of the first compassionate touch program, believes this program will increase compassion and decrease violence in school-age children.
Decreasing negative, aggressive, problem behaviors (self-centeredness, aggression. temper control, attention problems and hyperactivity).
Enhancing overall self-esteem. self-worth and self-image.
In Anchorage, Alaska 1999, Joshuah Shumelda oversaw the first compassionate touch program at Hillcrest preschool in Anchorage as both a preschool teacher and ambassador to the program. He has since expanded the Compassionate Touch Program to the Compassionate Connections Program encompassing the healthy use of touch, speech, use of resources (sharing), and knowledge.
Over the past decade+ Joshuah has taught the program to Moms, nannies, and day schools. We invite you to schedule a FREE!!! workshop for your neighborhood or school.

Everynight Charley's Manhattan Beat: May 7 – May 13
TarantinosNYC/Otto's Shrunken Head/May 7, 2014
Unsteady Freddie has created a unique music scene in the New York area by hosting his Unsteady Freddie's Surf-Rock Shindig on the first Saturday of each month at Otto's Shrunken Head. Among the often-booked performers is the TarantinosNYC, a New York-based instrumental quartet that plays surf rock and soundtrack-style music, most of which sounds like it originated from 1960s spy or spaghetti western films. The band is comprised of Tricia Tarantino on bass, Paul Tarantino on guitar, Brian Tarantino on keys and rhythm guitar, and Joey Tarantino on drums. At Otto's tonight for Freddie's 10th anniversary show, the band once again revived an old sound with a fresh approach. On original songs and on covers, Paul's varied guitar work and Brian's keyboard intersected and blended solos to keep each song sounding different and engaging.
Mister Neutron/Otto's Shrunken Head/May 7, 2014
Guitarist Damian Fanelli, bassist Tony Fanelli and drummer Drew Paradine have been playing together in various bands since 1988. Nowadays they only seem to play once a year as Mister Neutron, at Unsteady Freddie's anniversary shows at Otto's Shrunken Head. The instrumental surf rock trio from Cranford, New Jersey, has a great challenge in that all songs have to be led by lead guitar alone, and Fanelli kept it interesting tonight. His guitar playing was absolutely wicked.
Ringo Deathstarr/Irving Plaza/May 9, 2014
Singer/guitarist Elliott Frazier formed the concept of Ringo Deathstarr in his hometown of Beaumont, Texas. Upon relocating to the more musically happening climes of Austin, he stabilized a final lineup with bassist Alex Gehring and drummer Daniel Coborn. The name of the band is a parody of the names of the Beatles' drummer and the fictional space station and super weapon in the Star Wars franchise. Opening for Peter Murphy of Bauhaus at Irving Plaza, Ringo Deathstarr performed a droning shoe-gaze set that was a loud and completely uninteresting wash of fuzzy sound with little if any dynamics.
Dawn Landes/Chez Andre/May 11, 2014
Dawn Landes is originally from Louisville, Kentucky, but her career in music took form while living in France. Not limited to writing and singing songs, she relocated to Brooklyn, New York, and learned to engineer and produce music while working at Stratosphere Sound and at Philip Glass' recording studio. In 2009, Landes helped found Saltlands Studio in Brooklyn. Tonight at Chez Andre in the Standard Hotel, East Village, Landes sang sweet poetic songs and love songs in a smooth and soft caliber. Among the highlights, she gave a slow, meditative twist on Roxy Music's "More Than This" and sang a song from the 1962 film Jules And Jim in French.
Whitechapel/Stage 48/May 12, 2014
Singer Phil Bozeman and lead guitarist Ben Savage formed the deathcore band Whitechapel in 2006. Although based in Knoxville, Tennessee, they named their band after the section of London, England, where the infamous Whitechapel murders in the late 1880s were allegedly committed by Jack The Ripper. The band is filled out by guitarists Alex Wade and Zach Householder, bassist Gabe Crisp, and drummer Ben Harclerode. Opening for DevilDriver at Stage 48, Whitechapel banged hard with growls and breakdowns, but failed to meet the promise of what three guitarists could bring to a band. The performance centered on Bozeman's stage dynamics and vocal arrangements, but why have three guitarists if there are hardly any extended solos?
DevilDriver/Stage 48/May 12, 2014
After moving from Orange County to Santa Barbara, California, Coal Chamber vocalist Dez Fafara bonded with guitarist Jeff Kendrick and drummer John Boecklin and formed DevilDriver in 2002, eventually recruiting guitarist Mike Spreitzer and bassist Chris Towning. At Stage 48, DevilDriver performed brutal thrash metal with a taste of melodic groove metal thrown in, demonstrating that extreme metal does not have to be blindingly fast and blurry at all times. From twin guitar riffs to guitar duels, powered by pounding drums and topped with great growling vocals, DevilDriver showed its potential to become a leading band in heavy metal.
The Disco Biscuits/Irving Plaza/May 12, 2014
The Disco Biscuits formed as a jam band at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia in 1995. The band consists of guitarist Jon Gutwillig, keyboardist Aron Magner, bassist Marc Brownstein and drummer Allen Aucoin. The Disco Biscuits performed a lengthy uptempo set at Irving Plaza, borrowing from a heritage of experimentation that traces back to the Grateful Dead and Frank Zappa and to free-form electronic jazz improvisations. The grooves were hypnotic and the musicianship was stellar.
Adore Delano/The Gramercy Theatre/ May 13, 2014
Can the next rock star be a drag queen? Perhaps so. Danny Noriega of Azusa, California, better known by the stage name Adore Delano, appeared on the seventh season of American Idol and the sixth season of RuPaul's Drag Race. Tonight at the Gramercy Theatre, Delano sang a 50-minute set consisting of hard and heavy pop songs. Delano showed that she is a serious rocker, and that she is quite good at it.

It's time for O-2-9
Tuesday January 20 2009 the Oakland City Council will vote on final environmental and legal approval of the showcase Oak-To-Ninth (O29) development on two peninsulas comprising 64 acres immediately east of the Jack London District straddling the Lake Merritt Channel. 170 boat slips in two marinas, 200,000 square feet of retail space, 32 acres of waterfront parkland and bike/ped trails, and 3100 homes (including 465 low-income family-sized apartments), will transform a long-abandoned break-bulk cargo facility. Despite the obvious benefits of such a landmark development, the small group of activists who waged a referendum and then a lawsuit attempting to halt the project are still objecting to its construction.
Yesterday, Joyce Roy published an op-ed in Berkeley's NIMBY mouthpiece, the Planet. She rehashed many of the false and misleading claims of the anti-O29 referendum committee, who grossly oversimplified redevelopment agency financing and mischaracterized the open-space and transportation elements of the plan. A brief rebuttal: the city is not paying out-of-pocket for the affordable housing, the land price is discounted because of enormous environmental cleanup costs, living near a freeway is normal in Oakland, and AC Transit and Signature are committed to establishing new transit service once the area is developed. This blog documented these falsehoods during the referendum campaign, and using the same arguments City Attorney John Russo successfully defended the city against the referendum. With a few technicalities left for the city to clean up, opponents still haven't given up.
Oakland's neighborhood listserves have for about a month hosted a concerted campaign to stir up opposition to O29, seemingly to little success, perhaps because Oaklanders have other things on their minds. This week, some called for the delay of the Council's vote, because their meeting on the 20th conflicts with Barack Obama's inauguration as President and so would inconvenience those who want to speak on the item. But the City Council meeting Tuesday evening does not conflict with the inauguration, which is in the morning. One does not have a constitutional right to party. The vote was not rescheduled. In contrast, the sidewalk liability ordinance was delayed by Jane Brunner's Rules Committee, presumably to provide more opportunity for public input.
Because there has been plenty of public input on the Oak-To-Ninth project. One the petitioners' more outrageous claims was that there had not been adequate public involvement in planning the O29 area, invoking one of Oakland's sacred cows. To the contrary, O29's plan was developed with three years of public and private meetings between Signature Properties and community members and groups, in addition to the formal planning process which provided a dozen opportunities to plead one's case to decision-makers. Not only did Signature carefully develop a landmark plan with extraordinary public involvement, but they struck a deal with a large coalition of special interest groups to provide community benefits in the form of apprenticeship and local hiring programs, and to ensure that the affordable housing truly serves community needs (unlike, say, BMR condos).
The real issue on the table is not whether O29 inappropriately demolishes a 1950s warehouse or should contain 540 housing units instead of 3100. The court did not void the approvals of the project or uphold many of the opponents' claims. Basically, three parts of the Environmental Impact Report were found inadequate: analyses of cumulative impacts, of earthquake risk, and of traffic. After receiving further technical studies, the city found that cumulative impacts are insignificant and earthquake risks are mitigated by California's strict building code. The city did, however, find that traffic delays at five intersections would be unacceptable in 2025. That means that drivers in the future (assuming that people don't drive any less) may have to wait two minutes to pass through a green light. The Oakland City Council is asked Tuesday night to legally declare, "tough titties." It's time they did so.

Steve R says
Let's hope there are no more law suits and delays. There has been an enormous amount of public input on this project.

Explanation: A meteor, a comet, and a photogenic nebula have all been captured in this single image. The closest and most fleeting is the streaking meteor on the upper right -- it was visible for less than a second. The meteor, which disintegrated in Earth's atmosphere, was likely a small bit of debris from the nucleus of Comet 21P/Giacobini-Zinner, coincidentally the comet captured in the same image. Comet 21P, pictured across the inner Solar System from Earth, is distinctive for its long dust tail spread horizontally across the image center. This comet has been visible with binoculars for the past few months but is now fading as it heads back out to the orbit of Jupiter. Farthest out at 3,500 light years distant is the IC 2177, the Seagull Nebula, visible on the left. The comparatively vast Seagull Nebula, with a wingspan on order 250 light-years, will likely remain visible for hundreds of thousands of years. Long exposures, taken about two weeks ago from Iwaki-City in Japan, were combined to capture the image's faintest elements. You, too, could see a meteor like this -- and perhaps sooner than you might think: tonight is the peak of the Orionids meteor shower.

Helpful lessons-learned come from the oddest places.
In a Mason 43, the engine sits below the cabin sole (floor boards). This placement allows for greater living space in the cabin, but makes for a difficult time when working on the engine. It also means that the area right below the engine -- the bilge -- is very inaccessible under normal circumstances.
In the process of replacing our engine we had a couple days between the removal of the old one and the installation of the new. This gave us the chance to get to that spot and clean it, an amazingly grimy task. The sides held a modest amount of dirt and grease, but a thick layer of sludge covered the bottom of the bilge: fifteen years of engine oil, diesel, coolant, and dirt. Mixed in were all the things people had dropped and been unable to retrieve: assorted nuts, bolts and other items dropped accidentally.
I got the bulk of the grime off easily with a paint scraper, glopping it into a pile the size of a mixing bowl. This left a layer of stubborn grease covering the surface. I was reluctant to use harsh chemicals or smelly cleaners, so this was where my past experience came in.
When Nicole was in Kindergarten, she succumbed to the age-old ritual that most school-aged children go through: lice. Her long curls were the perfect insect fortress, but I was ready to fight. We had never cut her hair before, and I resolved not to do it. I felt confident that the repeated special-shampoo washings, fine-tooth combings, and exhaustive hand-pickings left her nit-free. But I couldn't let well enough alone, and decided to make extra sure by using the suffocation method. This approach involves slathering the hair with mayonnaise, covering it with saran wrap, and waiting for any remaining critters to keel over from lack of oxygen.
Given Nicole's egg allergy, i decided to substitute Vaseline for the mayo. That was a tremendous mistake. It turns out Vaseline is not soluble in soap. This became glaringly obvious after four shampoos with no diminishing of the thick layer of petroleum jelly. Numerous attempts and google-searches later yielded the solution: Vaseline dissolves in oil. So: slather her hair in canola oil, wash out the oil with Dawn dish soap, repeat... and repeat... and repeat. After about a dozen cycles of that she was finally back to clean, critter-free curls.
Fast forward to the bilge: how to easily dissolve the layer of mostly petroleum-based grime? Canola oil! The process was similar to Nicole's de-licing: slather on canola oil & wipe away grease with paper towels, spray on some citrus degreaser & wipe with more paper towels, wash the oil and degreaser with Dawn. No harsh chemicals, no toxic smell, and a worthwhile sacrifice of a zillion paper towels. The result: a shining, spotless bilge. It's clean enough to eat off of -- but I won't make everyone go that far.

It's been over three months since I gave an update on how I'm doing with my gray hair transition, so I thought this would be a good time for me to fill you in on the journey. I'm now at just about the seven month mark and there have been some changes to my transition plan since I last reported on the process back in August. I'm still planning to stay the course, but it definitely hasn't been easy! In today's post, I'll update you on recent new developments and share photos and thoughts on how my transition is progressing.
Since I've written quite a few posts about my gray hair transition, I created a new blog category to make it easy to access this content for those who are interested. If you're pondering the process – or are currently in it – and would like some tips and advice, be sure to check out my "Going Gray & Getting Out of Hair Prison Follow-Up" article, as it is chock full of suggestions from readers and useful links to gray hair transition resources.
When I last wrote about my gray transition, I was at the 3.5 month mark and had about two inches of outgrowth (see photos here). At that point, I had gone "cold turkey" from hair dye and was just letting my roots grow out. Consequently, the line of demarcation (a.k.a. the "skunk stripe") was quite stark. Fortunately, I was able to successfully camouflage it by applying root cover-up powder, which worked surprisingly well.
The photo below shows my gray outgrowth at five months, along with images that were taken before (bottom left) and after (bottom right) I had applied the powder. Because the top of my head where the powder was added lacked the shine of the rest of my hair, I started wearing headbands or headscarves to cover up at least some of that effect.
Here's how my gray hair transition looked at the five month mark.
These are the three main choices for transitioning to gray hair.
I started out with option #1, as the thought of doing option #2 was too scary for me. I also thought my hair would surely break off or fall out with option #3, as it was already in bad shape from my health issues and the frequent coloring I'd been doing for years. However, stopping the dyeing and doing multiple deep conditioning treatments helped to restore my hair's condition. I also learned about a breakthrough product called Olaplex that helps to dramatically reduce the damage of chemical processes.
Patience is not one of my primary virtues and the idea of letting my "skunk stripe" gradually expand and work its way down my head was quite unsettling for me to contemplate. So after having a consultation with a hairstylist who was recommended to me by someone else who had made the gray transition, I decided to have heavy highlights done from the line of demarcation down. This was almost exactly a month ago when I was at the six-month point in my transition process.
I had heavy highlights applied below the line of demarcation at six months.
This is what my hair looks like now at 7 months and with highlights and toner.
Even with the Olaplex, my hair was still pretty dry from the highlights, particularly at the ends. Luckily, the at-home formulation of Olaplex has worked like a charm to restore moisture, so my hair feels much the same as it did prior to having the highlights done. Still, I want to wait longer to do another round, both for the condition of my hair and so I can emotionally adjust to the lighter hair color.
I find myself missing my dark hair and it feels sad to look at myself and think that I will never have dark hair again. I don't love my current hair color, but it's a midpoint on the journey to my natural silver hair, which I believe I will like better. I feel that darker hair and silver hair are better matches for my coloring and personal style than the current in-between warmer shade. Since my skin tone is cool and I almost exclusively wear cool-hued clothing, my hair clashes somewhat with both my complexion and my clothes.
I can't expect the color to be perfect, but I think the highlights will make the transition easier and perhaps additional highlights will help me to like my hair more as it grows out. I do plan to cut more hair off later down the line, but for now I'm sticking with one to two inch trims every few months. Once I have more outgrowth, I may opt for a more dramatic chop so that I have more "virgin" hair than dyed hair on my head.
I'm still not 100% convinced this is all going to work out, but I have to at least try. I see so many lovely silver heads of hair in the gray transition Facebook groups, but I'm still skeptical as to whether I will look good with my natural hair color. I also worry that my gray hair might yellow from regular flat-ironing, which I can't see myself not doing. I know there are ways of both preventing this and dealing with it, but it's still a concern. I'm taking things as they come, but I'm proud to have gone seven months thus far with no permanent color. It's a relief not to have to "chase roots" constantly like I was, but I do struggle when I see myself with this lighter hair.
I'm hoping I'll get used to it and end up loving the gray. So many women in the gray groups do, but I can't help but think there are many others who either leave the groups (and perhaps color their hair again) or don't voice their discontent with their new look. There is definite peer pressure in the groups and many of the members are like ex-smokers who hate smoking more than those who never smoked.
A lot of women in the groups write about how hair dye looks ugly and unnatural. Yes, that can be true sometimes, but I wonder if perhaps they're saying such things to try to convince themselves as much as others. I believe in live and let live and that we all have to do what's right for us. I don't want to become a gray hair evangelist, but I do want to encourage people to at least question what they're doing to make sure it's right for them. Peer pressure is not a good reason to either dye or not dye.
If I do ever decide to go back to coloring my hair (which I don't think I will), I hope I won't view it as a "failure." Some women in the groups have gone back to dyeing and were very sheepish about it. I think that as long as one makes an informed and empowered decision, it can be the right thing to do in either instance. I feel that even if one goes back to dyeing, it was still a "success" to have given it a go, as it was a way of questioning the status quo, much like with any change we make in life. I'm proud of myself for doing this, especially since it's not easy and I live in appearance-conscious Southern California. I don't know how it's all going to turn out, but we never do with any chance we take in life. Nothing ventured, nothing gained, right?
Isn't there some middle path? Your hair coloured is quite a dark reddish brown and uncoloured it is a darkish salt and pepper. A good colourist could get a tint or even better two tints the middle of these two. At a guess your coloured hair is a warm 7 and your natural hair is a mix between black and silver, each at an opposite end of the colour spectrum.
How about a light cool ash (ash 9 say) highlights with warm deep blonde lowlights?
Honestly you don't have to go through this with all the techniques that modern hairdressing has.
You might need to spend more onhairdressing for 12 months than you usually would but, hey, good hair makes you feel GOOD!
Forget the ideology and get something flattering. I'm 69 and still blonde-ing on. I was thinking of going grey at 70 but then I saw Martha Stewart who is 73!
Spend less on clothes and more on hair, I say!
I agree. I think part of your discomfort with your hair at the moment is due to the clash between the warm dyed color and the cool natural color. Toning the reds and golds down to an ashy brown would help to even the effect. Also, it would be worth cutting your hair back to your collar bone. Very long grey hair tends to look out of condition unless it is super conditioned smooth and shiny. It would still look long as it is below your shoulder, but more sophisticated – and you could still wear your headbands, which really suit you.
I have naturally dark (nearly black) hair, and I tried going a little lighter a year or so ago. It was a disaster – I wanted to cry every time I looked in the mirror. After a long chat with my hairdresser, I went dark again, but a richer brown than when I was trying to recapture the nearly black hair I was born with. I love it, and I don't think I will ever willingly go grey. Kudos to you for sticking it out seven months, but please don't feel like a failure if you discover this path is not for you.
Debbie, I LOVE your natural color! And your highlights are not what I would pick for you, but I think it's to be expected, considering the color you started with. I'm sure your hairdresser can work towards what you want, and it's very effective at blurring the line of demarcation. I also love the headband or scarf on you.
As you know, I chose option 2 and went really short. And I am loving it! I went through a period of mourning my long dark hair but it's over now and I'll never go back. I'm glad you're persevering. Hang in there, it will get easier!
Tara, you played a big role in my having the courage to do this, so thank you for helping to inspire me! I'm glad you are happy with your hair now and have no regrets about your decision. When I saw you after the change, I noticed your eyes and skin more than I ever did before and you looked quite radiant. I'm not as brave as you are to do option #2, but my hat (and I wear more of them these days…) is definitely off to you! Thanks for the encouragement!
Imogen Lamport's Inside Out Style Blog has some excellent articles on her transition from really dark cool brown hair, to ash blonde hair, in order to disguise her grey. She too went through a transition period where her lighter hair colour was too warm for her skin colour, like yours is now, before finally getting to a lighter cooler colour that suited her.
Thanks for sharing these links, Sal. I read Imogen's posts before, but it was helpful to read them again now that I'm in the process myself! I actually wanted to do what she did with stripping out the color, but I was pretty sure my hair wouldn't be able to take it. She looked great as a brunette and she is lovely as a blonde now, too. The middle color wasn't so good, but it was a necessary evil in the process. I don't intend to stay with my current color, but I want to give my hair a breather between coloring processes. Hopefully I will be able to get at least somewhat ashier with my tone the next time around.
Debbie, I love how you delve into the 'whys' of things, always with so much thought. You're quite right – those of us who have embraced gray hair sometimes become evangelical about it. But it's definitely not for everyone, and it's definitely not easy, even when the transition is complete. I worry about 'looking old'; and I often compare my looks to other women and feel woefully inadequate. I just got tired of trying to dodge the age bullet, knowing full well that it would find me someday anyway. It was a relief to let go of the quest for youthful perfection, and turn my energy toward learning to live with more gratitude for now, rather than continually pining for what is no longer. I do try to eat well and exercise for my mental and emotional health – I believe that will provide a more lasting happiness for me.
My mother and many of her friends aged so gracefully, always making the effort to look polished and put together, still caring about their looks well into their 80's and 90's. I especially loved how- even through the wrinkles and gray hair and so many physical challenges – they laughed loudly. I want to be a woman like that.
I really appreciate your continued encouragement, Sybil! I wish everyone here could see how lovely you look with your beautiful silver hair. Like Tara above (as well as Terra), you have been one of my greatest sources of inspiration! I resonate a lot with what you wrote here. I think it will be a relief for me to let go of the quest for youthful perfection and I would love to be free of the habit of comparison. I do intend to always take care of myself, but I don't need to look a lot younger than what I am. I think you look beautiful with your natural hair and hopefully I will, too. I just have to get through this rough time. It's already easier than it was… and I'm grateful for that.
Maybe it's just the fact of documenting it all for a series of posts but you sound like you've had to struggle a lot. I had no idea you were not naturally a brunette. Maybe it's just how the photos look on my monitor. It's appearing dark blond/lighter brown to me. I can see how this would throw off your contrast levels. I'm not in any way saying you don't still look beautiful but what about something like henna products? What about those salons specializing in natural organic hair color?
Something I thought I'd mention because of your chemical sensitivies: have you checked whatever shampoo, conditioner, face creams, cleansers, hand soap, etc for the family of chemical preservatives that are can cause severe allergies and are neurotoxins? After our son saw 3 doctors, including a dermatologist and they couldn't figure out a bleeding rash on his buttocks, with open sores, I happened upon an article on these chemicals and they mentioned baby wipes. Bingo! After that I threw out everything in the house I could find that had this and I'm very careful what I bring in. I think it's already outlawed in Europe but still being used here in U.S. Sometimes the generic store brand Compare To… does not have it while the brand name does.
Thank you for mentioning the chemical sensitivity, Vildy. I need to delve into exploring the ingredients of all of my products further, but I've already done a lot to clean up my environment and it has helped somewhat. I'm glad you were able to figure out what was bothering your son. That sounds scary! I will address the hair issues below, as a lot of people wrote similar comments and it's easier for me to answer them all at once instead of individually.
Hi Debbie, your natural color is so beautiful!
I can see how hard the transitioning process is but I think you highlights with Olaplex are a great interim solution. Your new emerging gray hair is a fantastic silvery shade, it makes your eyes sparkle and really flatters your skintone. I promise it will be worth it!
I'm a natural blonde. My hair has just darkened and faded with age and based on older relatives, I'll go mousy, not silvery gray. I've always loved and envied that beautiful shade of steel gray – you are getting there and it looks so beautiful!
Good to see you comment here, Anna, and thank you for your kind words! Silver hair is popular in the U.S., too, so this is a good time to transition. I hadn't seen Sarah Harris before, but she is quite lovely. I love how she never colored her hair and made it her trademark instead. I wish I would have done that, but hindsight is always 20/20. I hope one day I will look half as cool as Sarah does! I'm happy that the hair that is growing out of my head looks better than I thought it would.
As a long-time natural hair advocate, I dare to say that natural hair color is never the root of the problem. From the last photos I see that your eyes are now more focal point of your head than when your face was surrounded by dark hair. It's definitely not a turn for the worse, but it IS a change, and you might want to do some exploration. But, let me say first that you look great and have indeed shown patience with this growing out project. I have grown my hair out from super short to long once…and let's just say that I never want to repeat the experience.
I've noticed that many women, as they go gray, also update their makeup routine and wardrobe. Your wardrobe colors have been quite bright in the past -lots of contrast, just like your hair, eyes and skin tone used to have. Maybe now would be a time to experiment with softer color. A complete wardrobe overhaul is unnecessary, but maybe you could swatch with some new colors in store. Like cool pink instead of bright fuchsia, aqua instead of teal, some softer blue instead of cobalt… Many women also seem to drift towards charcoal grey or navy as their base neutral instead of black. My point being, that since especially longer hair affects our coloring so much, a major color change will have its effect on how we look in general. At that point, many seem to think that their new color is "unflattering", even though the color suits wonderfully their skin tone (which, I might point out, also changes subtly with age), while in reality the new color and contrast level that comes with it are just a little out of sync with one's wardrobe.
Lastly, since you struggle with a shopping problem, let me emphasize that I'm not suggesting a shopping spree or a huge wardrobe overhaul, but small, gradual tweaks at most. If you have done color analysis in the past, now could be a time to redo it… once again, the devil is in the details.
This. I have never had so many compliments on my eyes as since I have gone grey. I also think my skin looks younger, contrasted with the grey hair. I am wearing a lot more grey, charcoal and black in my clothing, which is now more flattering on me. With eye makeup I am leaning towards pewter, bronze, pinks, plums and taupe/grey shades. Dark lipsticks look better too – reds and plums.
But above and beyond those changes, I have started exercising more intensely which has greatly improved my overall energy and self-esteem. I know you have challenges in that area due to health problems, but doing the most you can in that area may help too, both mentally and physically.
I can definitely attest to your eyes sparkling and standing out so much more now, Tara, and I agree that your skin also looks younger. I can imagine that a change in make-up and clothing colors will be needed. I haven't done much exploration there yet, but I'm happy that I already prefer cool colors. I've read that many women who wore a lot of warm colors before had to do a complete wardrobe overhaul. I will likely do what Sara K recommends and gradually make shifts. It's a bit hard to do it yet because I'm still not sure what my hair will look like, but as I do shop, I will buy the colors that look best on me. I don't think I will ever give up cobalt and black, though, as those are my favorites!
Yes, I do have challenges in terms of how intensely I can exercise, but I do what I can and it varies day by day. I find that even getting outside for a short walk helps my well-being, so I try to do that as much as possible. Hope to see you again soon when you're back in San Diego.
I know that you aren't fond of the new color, but I think your hair looks beautiful in the picture with the polka dot headband.
Debbie, your natural hair colour is so elegant and flattering on you! I don't think it matters that the new colour suits you less because it's not up against your face. Plus your hair is growing very fast so I think with a bit of a cut it will be the dominant colour before long.
You've inspired me! I'm 39 so just have a skattering of grey but I'm letting it through. I'm growing out blonde highlights, my natural colour is mousey. I've also shortened my hair so the transition is fairly painless and I don't think about it much. I just hope I'm happy with the natural colour. I don't want to look old but I do want to be natural. I am enjoying not having to colour it!
I'm very happy to have inspired you, Melody! My hope in sharing my journey was to shed light on the situation for others. There was SO much I didn't know before I started to go down this road. If I can make things a little easier for even a few other women, it will be worth it. Best wishes to you!
I actually like you with this warmer tone; better than the "natural" darker hair you had. It looks great!
I love the your natural silver streaks and can totally see how wonderful you will look once your naturalness is totally achieved. Even if it is not totally silver. Your eyes have a smoky look that could look fabulous with salt and pepper hair. You did say your hair was dark brown before but on screen it always looks a reddish brown. I wonder if that is what goofed up the hair stylist who was putting your streaks in. Is it possible you could get a frost cap and do it yourself like I used to do when I added light streaks only you would add dark brown and dark gray streaks? I heard it is easier going darker than going lighter. I admire your fearlessness in this project. Oh, and I agree with the others that you wear all those headbands beautifully and they actually add a special something to your total style.
Debbie, I too am letting go of the color and am at around 6 months with no coloring. The first month my hairdresser did highlights and bleaching on my really dark (almost black) hair and it was very stark at first but I've come to love it as the roots grow out. I am quite grey but there is enough black left to make it a little darker than yours. I have done the Olaplex but actually prefer the Keratin treatment. My hair is in pretty good shape considering what I've been through health wise in the last few years. My hair had grown to halfway down my back and I did get it cut at collar bone length and love it. I doubt I will go shorter right now as I still like to pull it back when I can. The cut made a huge difference in how I viewed the grey and in how my hair looked as it was starting to look old and almost straw-like even though it wasn't in that bad of shape. I think it just perked me up enough to keep me going. My hairdresser has said she can do some low lights but I think I will just try to live with the demarcation line and ignore it as much as possible. I've started putting color on my eyes again and a darker lipstick to take some of the focus away from my hair and so far it is working. There are still days I wonder who that old woman in the mirror is but I am determined to keep this up and finally get all of the artificial color out of my hair. Thanks for your inspiration!
Hi Debbie, You are beautiful and both the dark and the silver suit you. (I also love the hairbands) You think things out very well and I know you will find your way, whether it be to keep slowly transitioning or change your mind. Sending best wishes to you.
Debbie I am so proud of you! And I'm glad you are too. You look even more beautiful than before and I can see when you are done with the grow out your look will be absolutely stunning.
Debbie, you are such an inspiration! Your new image is very elegant.
I just turned forty, and I've been getting more and more silver strands in my hair. We have similar coloring, and seeing the way silver looks on you makes me want to keep the grey coming.
Debbie, I can see how this would be frustrating and emotionally challenging. Are you sure you can't just chop most of it off? This seems less painful than battling the demarcation line for at least another couple of years. Check out Unique Monique on you tube. She went from long dark chestnut to a funky short silver cut, which looks great. Her looks changed dramatically, but in a good way. Good luck on your hair journey.
Thanks for the tip about Unique Monique, Joanna. I will check her out. I have watched quite a few YouTube videos, but I haven't come across her yet.
How much are you willing to cut off? The new natural color looks great and with a shorter bob the darker ends would be less visible. Good for you for getting away from all the chemicals, time and money required to alter your hair color.
Please, please don't be sad at leaving behind your dark hair! Just look at how your beautiful eyes and skin tone shine out already. I sometimes feel nostalgic about the clothes, shoes, etc., that I wore in more youthful times, but becoming older has so many advantages to embrace, and is an opportunity to experiment with different colours and styles. Think of the fun you can have with new ideas!
I think that your skin and eyes just glow with the gray but what matters is how you feel about yourself. (I am still an advocate of lightening the hair around one's face since that is what you see in the mirror.) Have you considered lightening or putting a lighter color on your eyebrows and changing up the makeup? It seems that changing hair color could really change the overall look of the colors/tones on your face. You could always use a brow color in a lighter shade just to see how it looks and go with a lighter lip if you are not already doing that. I love the hair bands too. It is a great way to include your love of stripes and your favorite colors up near your face.
For what it's worth (and I just realized the comment above mine says the same thing): your eyes have a luster to them, and your skin looks brighter, with your gray hair. Your eyes have more 'pop' than they did with the brown. I think this is an experiment worth continuing FOR YOURSELF**, to see how you like the finished look (fully gray). I feel that if you stop now, you will always feel like maybe you let yourself down, just a little.
I appreciate your encouragement, Mary Beth. You're right that I would feel that I let myself down if I don't see this process through. I do feel proud of myself for doing it and being as hard as I can be on myself, I don't feel proud of myself all that often. I do have a tendency to worry a lot about what other people think, but I'm working to get past that. After all, I'm the only one who has to live my life, so I have to do what's right for me. This gray transition definitely isn't easy, but I am learning and growing through the process and am happy about that.
Debbie, I hope you won't find me too honest here, I really think a shorter hairstyle is the answer. For some time now I've thought both your natural hair color and a shorter length would suit you better, and I must say I absolutely love the way the grayish hair looks on you — you look younger, and the harmony in general is rather nice. In any case, well done for staying the course. I think you are on your way to something beautiful and liberating.
Your eyes and skin glow with your natural grey. I know a few women who dye their hair very dark an as they have got older their skin looks drained. It may look dramatic in a photo but not in daylight. It's difficult for us to asses from Internet photos, so of course you will be the best judge, but do asses the overall result and not just focus on the hair. I also think a bit shorter say maybe to your elegant collar bones would look good.
Debbie, the transition is hard and it feels like it's never going to work while you're in the middle of it. But you'll get there and I think you will look beautiful with your natural hair color, it makes your eyes really sparkly!
I picked option 2 and cut my hair short after about 6 or 7 months of transitioning. But it was an easy choice for me because I had short hair most of my life and felt very comfortable with it. I fall into the category of women who stop coloring and never look back. I've never been tempted to start coloring again and it's been almost 6 years for me now. But my 72 year old mother tried going gray and really disliked it. She's gone back to coloring but uses semi-permanent color for a softer look.
Congrats on making the transition, Izeve, and for never looking back! It's great that it didn't take you all that long to make the transition. I do think it's easier for those who have or like short hair (on themselves). My mother is also 72 and doesn't have any intention of stopping coloring. I think that it's harder for that generation from what I've seen. It's good that she is now using the semi-permanent color now. This is a very individual process and everyone needs to do what's right for them. I hope I will feel as you do once I'm done transitioning.
It is remarkable just how much your eyes really stand out and your skin looks so good with the grey. I think you will love it once this whole process is done. What about speeding up the process a bit and cutting off a few inches? I think you could go all the way short and look super sassy!
Thank you so much to everyone who has commented here. I appreciate all of the wonderful compliments that many of you made about how my natural hair color is bringing out my eyes. I noticed that shift with a few friends who have transitioned, so it's great that you see it happening for me, too. I'm also grateful for the kind comments about my head scarves. I started wearing them to cover the "skunk stripe," but I've found that I really like them and plan to continue wearing them even when my hair is all one color.
tone, but it's not nearly as simple as it seems. I'm a member of multiple Facebook groups focusing on gray hair transition and a lot of women struggle with brassy highlights and colored hair that is warmer/oranger than they would like. Even before I decided to transition to gray, I had a lot of trouble getting my hair the color I wanted and keeping it that way, even though I've been to multiple colorists and have spent a lot of money. Part of my reason for transitioning is because I was basically never happy with my color and even when I was, my roots would show after only about a week and a half. Even when a stylist would use the exact same formula and process, the result would be different, which was maddening. Chock it up to porous, damaged hair that became increasingly unpredictable.
may need just one more round of highlights, but I may also want to do lowlights to tone down the overall redness because even with heavy highlights, there is still a lot of my original color that would be untouched. I don't want to touch any of my new outgrowth no matter what, so anything that is done will only be done to the dyed portion of my hair.
As for cutting my hair shorter, one big change at a time is enough for me. I'm sure I will cut more off once I have more outgrowth, but I will probably always keep my hair long enough to be able to pull it back. My hair is not naturally straight and can be big and busy with humidity, so it does better with more weight and length to pull that down. Hopefully, my texture will be nicer without all of the dye on it. It's already better than it was back when I was coloring every four weeks.
progresses, as some of you have mentioned. I liked the reminder links to Imogen Lamport's posts about her transition (she went from dark brown to blonde), in which she wrote about how she went from high contrast down to medium contrast. The same will be true of me and already is to a certain extent. Getting my colors done after my hair has transitioned is a good idea and may be a nice way to reward myself for my tenacity with all of this.
that, but I hope to see this through. If I hate it at that point, well then I know I have options.
through some of the angst I have. A few of you mentioned that I've inspired you and I always love hearing things like that. Best wishes to those of you who are also on this path and congratulations to those who have already transitioned successfully. Before too long, I hope to be among you!
I am at the 3 months part of the journey. I am 45, and my hair is salt and pepper, but my colored hair looks auburn but not shinny or healthy. I love how you expressed yourself in this post. I am with you. Coloring is nice and fun for many, we should always respect others. I'm going to try to make this work too. I am not patient either, but we will see! I believe you will look beautiful once it's all grey.
Congrats on starting the gray transition process, Silvia! It's certainly a growth-enhancing experience… I'm glad you liked my post and I appreciate your kind words. I'm definitely not against coloring and if I didn't have health issues and could still get away with coloring every 6 weeks or so, I would likely still do it. But my hair was super damaged and my roots showed after less than two weeks, so the handwriting was on the wall. My hair is much healthier now, even with the highlights, and hopefully yours will be, too. Best wishes to you with this journey!
Thank you Debbie. You are ahead of me by a few months, and I know that, one day, we both will be glad we made this decision. Your natural hair is looking very beautiful. It may take time for the whole process, and not only, for other changes around this (clothes colors, make up, etc), but we'll get there!
Dear Debbie, I have been reading your blog for a long time, but never commeted although often I would have liked to. But this time I need to, because I am amazed and stunned how great your natural hair colour suits you. I would have never expected it to make such a difference.
So, at least as far as I can see, the struggle of the transistion will definitely be worth it. You look gorgeous already and you will look even more gorgeous!
Sending you strength and big thank you for your wonderful blog!
Thank you so much for taking the time to come and post this wonderful comment, Iris. I was delighted to see it, as I was struggling a lot with my hair color (the dyed parts and the contrast with my roots) yesterday. This isn't easy, but I hope you're right and I will be happy once the transition is done. It has definitely helped to receive comments like yours on this post.
And now I am delighted by your answer. Thank you for your kind words!
After I posted my comment, I felt bad, because I didn't want to emotionally pressurize you to keep going when you feel bad about the transition. But I am still amazed by the "new" look that is opening up for you. For me you look at the same time softer (more feminine), stronger and more alive with the lighter hair.
But I can also understand how hard it must be to keep going; I once discovered I had unintentionally two-toned hair (home dyeing) and felt a bit uneasy about that for quite some time. So I am sending you good vibes for courage, selfconfidence and pah-I-look-gorgeous-anyway-conscience – and for rapid hairgrowth! I keep my fingers crossed, that San Diego can soon enjoy the sight a post-transition Debbie.
I really appreciate your kind words and encouragement, Iris, as I continue to struggle with my transition. I can see the possibility at the end of the road, but this in-between phase is very rough. The highlights decreased the line of demarcation, but my hair now looks brassy and I'm not sure what to do about it. I feel like there just isn't enough information out there for women who want to go gray without chopping all of their hair off. I know there must be many women out there who are going through what I am. I admire those who can be "zen" about the stripe or brave enough to go super short, but I am neither of those and feel I may have made things worse by opting for the highlights. Of course, hindsight is always 20/20, but it would be nice to have a resource that clearly states the pros and cons of each available option. I'm taking this day by day and hope I can stay the course, but in all honesty I'm just not sure at this point. Thank you for what you wrote in your last sentence. It truly means a lot to me and actually brought tears to my eyes.
