...Bobbi Brown stands at the front of her studio, glossy dark hair tied back, and three makeup brushes tucked into the front pocket of her slim-fitting, dark denim jeans. A giant board leans against the exposed brickwork of the wall behind her. The board is a riot of pink - raspberry to be precise - which Brown informs us will be the colour of summer 2008. Over the next few days the assembled makeup artists, best described as Brown's elite corps, will spend hours discussing cosmetics in painstaking detail. They will devote half a day to consideration of how to achieve the perfect concealer, longer than you would ever have thought possible debating the merits of lengthening versus thickening mascara and hours creating the smoky eye look. There won't be any blood, but there will be sweat and tears. Welcome to beauty boot camp. Bobbi Brown's makeup range occupies a very specific place in the fashion world. Brown's USP is "real beauty" for "real women". The range, like Brown herself, is both stylish and sensible. You won't find outrageous colours or masses of glitter; nor will you wonder what the hell you were thinking after a visit to one of her counters. Twice a year Brown picks her best makeup artists from across the globe and summons them to camp. There they learn directly from Brown what the key looks will be for the coming season. They also go right back to basics, hence the need to spend two hours on concealer. And to make things even more competitive, those who perform...

...Bobbi Kristina Brown's boyfriend, Nick Gordon, is finally speaking out about her death, and he is revealing some heartbreaking details. Bobbi Kristina Brown shocked the world when she was found unconscious and face down in her bathtub in January 2015, the same way her mother, Whitney Houston, died three years prior. Bobbi Kristina died six months later when her family took her off life support. Now, Nick Gordon is telling his side of the story, and giving details on his life with Bobbi. According to Hollywood Life, Nick says that Bobbi Kristina had gotten pregnant a couple of times before her death. However, those pregnancies sadly ended in miscarriages. Gordon claims the ordeal was hard on the fragile Brown. “We had a couple of miscarriages....

... The first marathon was run at the Olympic Games in Athens in 1896. (“Marathon History”) For seventy years, running a marathon was strictly a men-only activity. That was until the 1967 Boston Marathon, when the name K.V. Switzer showed up on a marathon registration. (“Kathrine Switzer Biography”) Little did the race officials know, K.V. Switzer was actually Katherine Virginia Switzer. In the pictures shown of the race that day, it is evident that Switzer was attacked by race officials for her heroic act for women in sports. Even though a grey sweat suit is not particularly the most noble and valiant look, seeing Switzer open a new window for women’s running is courageous enough to be considered a hero for any runner to this day. Although these photos are not posed, clear acts of heroism can be depicted. In the chosen pictures, Switzer is running in the 1967 Boston Marathon. Race official Jock Semple, pictured in black, is seen chasing after Switzer. Switzer claimed Semple yelled, “Get the hell out of my race and give me those numbers.” Switzer’s boyfriend, Tom Miler, then shoved Semple aside, letting Switzer continue on. When asked why she didn’t drop out, Switzer states, “I knew if I did that no one would believe women could run distances and deserved to be in the Boston Marathon; they would just think that I was a clown, and that women were barging into events where they had no ability.” Switzer is the only female shown in the picture, as running a marathon was considered...

...SHOULD BOBBY BROWN PULL PLUG ON DAUGHTER? The moral issue I wanted to discuss was from a current event in national news. The late Whitney Houston’s daughter (Bobbi Brown) is currently on life support. Brown’s cousin (Jerod Brown) stated that “doctors don’t see any hope for her condition to change”. According to Fox News, Bobbi Kristina Brown was found face-down unresponsive in the bathtub on Jan 31 (Fox News, 2015). She has been in the hospital in medically induced coma ever since. As we know, her mother (singer Whitney Houston), was found dead in a bathtub February 11, 2012. As a father of three beautiful daughters, this was very near and dear to me because I can only imagine the pain and concern that Bobbi Kristina’s father (singer Bobby Brown) could be going through. What would I do if I was in his situation? Would I want my own daughter to have a fighting chance to live until there was no chance of life? Or would not want my daughter to have to go through the state of being a “vegetable” and take her off life support. This is a moral issue for many Americans who have loved one on life support. According to Thirty-Mile Zone (TMZ), “Bobby Brown is adamant ... he doesn't want to take his daughter Bobbi Kristina off life support because he believes in God-driven miracles.” (TMZ, 2015). I am a proponent of Brown’s decision to keep his daughter on life support and putting his trust in GOD to work a miracle. Being A Christian myself, we are taught that...

...the backs of cabinets and in crevices between baseboards and floors or cabinets and walls. They may also be found behind pictures or within electronic equipment. A number of these openings will ultimately lead to voids in the stud walls. The insects leave these sites at night to forage for food and water. The presence of cockroaches during the day may indicate a large population. There are about 3,000 species of cockroaches in the world and about 50 occur in the United States. Of these 50 species, the three most common in the Northeast are the German cockroach, the American cockroach and the brownbanded cockroach. German Cockroach: Blattella germanica The German cockroach is 12 to 17 mm (1/2 to 5/8 inch) long, tan to light brown, and has two dark brown stripes on the body region (pronotal shield) just behind the head. Females will produce four to eight egg capsules during their lifetime, with each capsule containing approximately 40 eggs. The egg capsule is retained by the female until the eggs are ready to hatch, usually in 28 to 30 days. | German cockroaches are widespread and can be found in homes, restaurants, hospitals, nursing homes or apartments. Within these areas, the cockroaches prefer sites close to...

...Analysis and Presentation of Data The name of the river that the researcher studied is Wag Water, the study areas are: Golden Spring, Toms River and Annatto Bay. The river flows north from Golden Spring to Toms River to Annatto Bay. Velocity According to Vohn A.M. Rahil: in the New Caribbean Geography. The velocity of a river is the speed that water travels down the river channel. The velocity of the river is found to be faster in the upper course due to the gradient of the river channel. Experiments were carried out using the tennis ball and stop watch to find the velocity of the river in Golden Spring, Toms River and Annatto Bay; however the velocity of the river at Annatto Bay could not be done because of an unforeseen obstacle which is the depth of the river that is too deep to enter. Golden SpringFigure [ 1 ] Figure 1 Stop 1: A ten meter (10m) distance was measured to take the velocity of the river along the Wag Water River in golden spring. This was done by a set of students at a maximum of three times for accuracy. The first interval clock a time of 20.25seconds, the second interval clock a time of 17.55seconds and the final interval clock a time of 19.55seconds as shown in figure 1 above.

...Anyone who’s known me over the past two years have seen a tremendous change in regards to how I look. I’ve always had dirty blonde hair but in July of 2014 my mother’s will finally snapped and she let me dye my entire head purple. I was lucky enough that the dye I chose faded really nicely. After the royal purple faded it turned into a bright pink colour, then into a light baby pink; then I decided pink wasn't for me so I tried bleaching my hair but for some reason the dye refused to leave. Because my hair dye was the equivalent to super glue I decided the only option was to dye my hair brown to start off the new year. The brown dye stayed for a while but next I was back to blonde for graduation; but when July came around again and the heatwave...

...The coniferous forest is located in Canada, Europe, Asia, and the United States. The temperature ranges from -40 Celsius to 20 Celsius. Average summer temperature is 10 Celsius. Yearly precipitation varies from 30 to 90 centimeters per year. Coniferous forest regions have cold, long, snowy winters, and warm, humid summers. They have well-defined seasons, and at least four to six frost-free months. There are two types of Coniferous forests: 1. Open, lichen woodland, which has trees, spaced far apart with lichen growing between them. 2. Closed forests, which have trees very close together and a shaded, moss-covered forest floor. The major aquatic zones of the coniferous forest are marine, freshwater, and brackish. The average salinity of marine is 3%, freshwater 1% or less, and brackish mixture of salt and fresh. Clear-cut logging is the biggest threat to the Coniferous forest. Replanting after logging leads to single-species conifer monocultures. Clear cutting accelerates soil erosion, degrades wildlife habitat and leads to the loss of biodiversity. The land is being cleared for ski slopes, landfills, housing, and new roads. In Canada, one acre of forest is cut every 12.9 seconds! Mining operations is another threat to the Coniferous forests because of the chemicals used in mining and the silt released by mining. Road construction destroys the forest and also acts as a barrier to wildlife. Roads isolate populations of species from feeding grounds, natural migration routes and...

...neurotoxic venom can cause death. This has allowed it to hunt and feed itself. The Man o’ war The Portuguese man o’ war also has tendrils that are covered in venom-filled nematocysts used to paralyze and kill fish and other small creatures. Muscles in the tentacles draw prey up to a polyp containing the gastrozooids or digestive organisms. 2. Color Complexion Animals have different skin colors that serve many purposes. At times they guard the animal from danger by camouflaging it from the view of a possible hunter where at times it severs as a warning to other animals that keeps them from approaching the specific animal. Anglerfish The Anglerfish is able to blend into the darkness because of its dark grey and brown color. Therefore, it is able to hide itself from possible predators. Starfish Many starfish wear striking colors that camouflage them or scare off potential attackers. They use color, pattern and texture to camouflage on sand, coral, rocks and the ocean floor. Some starfish also have the ability to change colors to camouflage themselves from other enemies. Octopus The octopus has smooth skins and special...

...biting into the flesh of my wrists. A moan came from the cubicle next to me. I could feel a frisson of fear surging inside of me, gnawing away at my soul. Terrified. I asked in a trembling voice; “Who are you?” A startling voice replied back; “I am Irene. I do not know how I came here” Soon enough my hands were free, and the doors to the cubicle drastically opened. Light shone on Irene’s face, her eyes glistening and her brown hair shining. She wore a shaggy, black button down top and dirty work boots. She seemed frightened from the darkness, but her skin was so porcelain, both pale and perfect. I couldn’t get over the fact that her face looked like a perfect china doll you’d purchase at an antique store. Her lips were a glowing red, and her jaw was so pointed, falling perfectly with her diamond shaped face. Her forehead was rather wide, her eyes almond, her noise pointed and her mouth, a cupid’s bow. Her teeth were perfect. And she had very high cheekbones. Her face would get the attention of anybody, but her clothes were such shabby things. But her wiry brown hair made it all fit together. “Good evening” A deep dark voice appeared out of the darkness. A faint shivering ran through me. I felt a dreadful sinking pain at my heart, such as I had never felt before. “Who are you?” I questioned in a state of nervousness. “MY IDENTITY DOES NOT CONCERN YOU!” The loud, booming voice seemingly shook the room. I was frightened. The voice...

...relevant in the one hundred plus years since it was founded, but how has it remained amongst the top performers in this field? The organizational culture of the company may be able to answer this. The Cultural Artifacts of UPS The artifacts of the United Parcel Service are many and varied, but one above the rest stands alone, that being the color brown. The color itself has been used in much of the other symbology and artifacts of the shipping giant. UPS uses a specific shade of brown which is called Pullman brown. At the time of UPS’s inception in the early twentieth century the height of luxury cross country travel was done by rail. The most luxurious of all the rail line cars were made by the Pullman Palace Car Company, as such brown was associated with luxury. One addition benefit of the color brown for over the road vehicle that frequently travels unimproved roads is that it easily hides dirt and road grime. The color brown has been used in the as a major portion of the marketing strategy of UPS, even so far as using it in a very successful slogan, “What Can Brown Do For You?” You can find their distinctive Pullman brown color in almost everything UPS related, from the uniforms the employees wear, to the vehicles that they drive. Another unique artifact of the...
