Jump to: navigation, search

Laurence Lampert (born 1941) is a Canadian philosopher and leading scholar in the field of Nietzsche studies. He was born and raised in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

Leo Strauss and Nietzsche (1996)[edit]

  • Nietzsche’s arrival in modern philosophy signaled an unprecedented necessity: “probity”, “intellectual conscience”, Enlightenment radicalized by a new bravery that scorns any comforts like God.
    • p. 5
  • How can historicism consistently exempt itself from its own verdict that all human thought is historical?
    • p. 6
  • Strauss’ whole study indicates that noble nature as Nietzsche presents it—no, embodies it—replaces divine nature as Plato presents it.
    • p. 15
  • The way of Socrates had shown itself to be a limited way because it concerned itself “only with the scientific investigation of justice and the virtues,” and it had shown itself to be an intransigent way because it chose “non-conformity and death.” Plato corrected the way of Socrates—he removed the limitation and tempered its intransigence.
    • p. 16-17
  • Nietzsche discovered the clue to esotericism early … “The fact of the pious fraud.”
    • p. 20

Teacher Supply and Demand in Public Schools, 1968.
National Education Association, Washington, DC.
This is the 21st annual national survey of supply and demand for public school teachers. From September 1, 1967 to August 31, 1968, 243,442 persons entered this job market with at least a bachelor's degree. Two estimates of national demand are provided: (1) The estimated number of new teachers needed to attaim minimum levels of quality staffing in 1968 (301,300 in elementary and 198,350 in secondary schools); (2) the number needed in 1968-69, as projected from trends in the improvement of staffing characteristics in recent years (109,300 in elementary and 107,900 in secondary schools). The critical shortage of beginning teachers is expected to continue in secondary school mathematics and sciences. Shortages are likely in special education, vocational-technical courses, women's physical and health education, industrial arts, and elementary schools. Two special surveys of appropriate officials in State departments of education and in 79 of the nation's largest school systems show that shortages of qualified teachers are continuing in all of these assignments.

An Essay on Incarcerated Youth: An Oppressed Group.
Johnson, John L.
The article discusses the provision of educational services to incarcerated youth (all children in institutional settings, but particularly delinquents). Issues examined include the locus of authority for the education of the incarcerated, the need for adequate needs assessment data so that more systematic planning can be done, the need to organize available data into some meaningful picture, and the prejudice and bias that are part of the dynamics of who gets incarcerated. Some future perspectives are also offered. (DLS)

Discarding the Throwaway Society. Worldwatch Paper 101.
Young, John E.
Today's industrial economies were founded on the use of vast quantities of materials and energy, and the economic health of nations has often been equated with the amount they consumed. The amount of materials that originally enters an economy tells nothing about the material's eventual fate or its contribution to human well-being. It tells a good deal, however, about the damage the economy inflicts upon the environment. The devastation wrought by economic production is closely related to the amount of materials consumed. Discussed in this booklet are the causes of waste problems and attempts of people around the world to find alternative solutions to waste problems. Chapters are: (1) "Materials and the Environment"; (2) "The Mess We Are In"; (3) "Changing Products--and People"; (4) "Pushing the Limits of Recycling"; and (5) "Discarding the Throwaway Society."

Portfolio Assessment: Whose Work Is It? Issues in the Use of Classroom Assignments for Accountability. Evaluation Comment.
Gearhart, Maryl; Herman, Joan L.
This article examines one of the challenges to the integration of classroom and large-scale portfolio assessment, a challenge posed by the use of a student's classroom portfolio for large-scale assessment of his or her individual competencies. When work is composed with the support of peers, teachers, and parents, whose work is being judged? The validity of inferences drawn from the assessment can be compromised unless the question can be answered. Experiences with portfolio assessment in Vermont and in another study conducted by the Center for Research on Evaluation, Standards, and Student Testing (California) suggest that the quality of student work reflects not only a student's competence, but also the amount and quality of support received from others. Procedures that highlight a student's contribution to the work must be developed, complicated though this will be. Nevertheless, large-scale portfolio assessment programs appear to carry significant benefits for instructional reform. (Contains 5 tables and 73 references.) (SLD)

Camp David Summer Quiche

All Seasons Main Street Retreat

708 W. Main , Fredericksburg, TX 78624 Estados Unidos

  • 1 pkg Pie crust
  • 2 cups Monterey Jack Cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 cup Bacon, pre-cooked
  • 1/2 cup Onion, very thinly sliced, or diced
  • 1/2 cup Sun-dried Tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup Spinach, chopped
  • 2 tablespoon Flour
  • 6 Eggs
  • 2 cups Half & Half
  • 1 teaspoon Cavender's Seasoning

[Resource Id: instructions, Set: recipeview]

  1. Night before, spray a pie plate or quiche pan with non-stick cooking spray. Lay the crust in the dish and crimp the edges. Make the edge high, to prevent overflow.
  2. Sprinkle about 1/2 of the cheese in the bottom of the crust. Layer the other ingredients over, dusting the flour over the spinach layer. Top with rest of cheese. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  3. Beat the eggs and Half & Half together. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  4. Next morning, preheat oven to 350. Remove quiche and egg mixture from refrigerator. Season the egg mixture with the Cavender's. Pour over the quiche, allowing a little room for expansion during baking. If you have too much liquid, freeze for the next quiche! Allow the quiche to sit about 30 minutes before baking if you have the time. You can sprinkle chives or parsley on the top, if you wish.
  5. Bake in the center of the oven about 90 minutes, or until done. The crust will be your best indicator. Not too pale and not too dark. It will be brown and evenly risen. Remove from oven, allow to sit about 5 minutes before cutting. I garnish with slices of homegrown tomatoes, sprinkled with fresh from the garden basil.

blog “open mic”

This is the 2nd blog “open mic” I’ve hosted here.  I hosted the first “open mic” several months ago after randomly feeling inspired to do so and got some interesting stuff.

What is a blog open mic? It’s simply a digital version of an OPEN MIC. The pic above is from an Open Mic we host at Q Cafe on Tuesday nights from 6-9pm for those that want to actually get on a small stage and get your talent on. In the comment section on this post, you can share anything – [well, almost anything]:

a joke, your blog, random thoughts, scripture, a news story, your personal story or introduction, world changing ideas, your music, YouTube videos; your confessions, rants against me, rage against the machine, inspiring stories, plug your bands, the answers to life, your hip hop flow, your art, your poetry, prose or haiku, interesting links, ads for a boyfriend or girlfriend, promote an event, conduct a fundraiser, share your faith, fears, insecurities, and hopes; social justice issues.

You can share whatever as long as it’s not hateful, vitriolic, etc.

So, here is your chance to express yourself.  Take a minute and “open mic.”

    Psalm 23

    1 The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing.

    2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
    he leads me beside quiet waters,

    3 he refreshes my soul.
    He guides me along the right paths
    for his name’s sake.

    4 Even though I walk
    through the darkest valley,
    I will fear no evil,
    for you are with me;
    your rod and your staff,
    they comfort me.

    5 You prepare a table before me
    in the presence of my enemies.
    You anoint my head with oil;
    my cup overflows.

    6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me
    all the days of my life,
    and I will dwell in the house of the LORD

    HEY What an opportunity! Thanks Eugene!

    Here’s a self plug –

    I graduate from seminary in May. I am confessionally reformed, and practically missional. I want to see God change communities from the inside out.

    I want to live in a place and stay there, but I’m not sold on where just yet.

    If you want to start a church that does everything it can to be incarnational in its community, or if you know of a church like that looking for a pastor or assistant, how about help me out!

    here’s a link –

    a reflection after my second visit to an orphanage dear to my heart:

    a take on christianity (pardon the fact that this was from my time on xanga and not a “real blog =P)

  5. Joy says:

    I leave on January 3 for Haiti for a mission trip with 16 young adults and 2 other leaders. I get to do mission trips like this at least once a year but usually 2 or 3 times as well as setting up the trips, etc.

    The sad part is that everytime I dread going because of how hard it will be (cold or no showers, hard beds, sweat, the GREAT chance that there will be diarrhea, etc) and on top of that I never want to leave my family. I feel guilty. I’m going to do the Lord’s work but I don’t really want to. I feel like Paul.

    I’m always blessed by the trips. I’m always amazed at God’s goodness to me and his blessings but on this side of things I just don’t want to go. Most days I feel like a sham but I suppose we all are in light of his grace and mercy.

    Just thought I’d share my struggle as a missioner with a heart for the world and home.

  6. Donna says:

    Joy, I admire you for confessing your thoughts & will be praying for you.

    I am asking for prayer. Am a self-employed single mother, Christmas is 13 days away. Unable to travel home to Maryland to be w/the family, as things have been tight this year. Have a daughter who still believes in Santa; the Christmas shopping not done, etc. We have NEVER done without, God has always provided. Maybe it’s because I didn’t sleep well last night, but am feeling a little faint of heart this morning. Thanks in advance to all that will pray for us.

  7. janowen says:

    Donna, I am praying for you. The battle to not lose heart can be the bitterest battle of all.

    I sense that 2009 will be a pivotal year for me. For starters, my last child graduates from high school and begins college, my oldest two kids graduate from college (one has applied for the Peace Corp) and we will celebrate our 25th anniversary. Also, we have a mission trip to prepare for and I am in the midst of writing a book (who knows about the publishing!?) and feel led to “go” much more this year. At church we are transitioning to a new pastor in the new year who will be my boss and I am very nervous about that. We’ve had three long, hard, difficult and extremely painful years.

    So my prayer request is that I do not grow weary in doing what God has called me to do and that I will be able to step out in faith and obey some of the seemingly audacious things God is calling me to step forward and do. I feel He is saying, “Jan it is time for more.”

    So here I am, God!

    A true story.

    One day I was at work and received two phone calls. One from my doctor, telling me that my test results were back and, unfortunately, it was the “worst possible scenario” we had discussed at his office. Before I could even call my wife, the principle at my son’s pre-school called to tell me, personally, that my son’s one-on-one aide (he is non-verbal autistic) had been fired for physical child abuse and the matter referred to the police.

    After getting my wife on the phone and confirming that she was with our son and that he was not seriously injured, I realized that I really, really, really wanted to go home. The one snag was that I had a multi-continant conference call that had been weeks in organization that afternoon. So I walked down the hall and asked my business partner to cover for me. Without any questions at all (he just took a look at my face) he said “no problem”, but asked if I could get one of the project engineers to sit in with him to help with technical issues.

    Grateful, I walked down the hall and approached one of the engineers and asked her if she would sit in on the call at 4:30. She got a worried look and told me she had to leave early. I must have shown the disappointment on my face, because she started to hurrily explain, it was about her dog.

    Just great, I thought, the dog is getting put down or something. Then I caught the words “he has been spending a lot of time with my boyfriend and I just can’t have him like him more than me…” I started to feel anger boil inside me, and I was just about to explode when I looked straight into her face and saw obvious dark circles under her eyes. In just a few heartbeats, I went from struggling to contain anger to struggling to contain laughter, not at her, but at myself.

    Here is a woman, about 36 – half way through life’s journey, who seems to have everything, attractive, well educated, a six figure income, and she is tossing and turning all night long over doggy fealty and another of the long string of younger men she has sex with but with whom she can never seem to form deep emotional bonds.

    I told her not to worry about it, went back to my office and called my wife to make sure she felt it would be OK for me to come home after the conferences call, then got down on my knees and prayed. Gratitude for all the blessings in my life, gratitude that my family, including my son, were ok, intercession for the poor coworker and he sorry emotional state, and forgiveness for my inability to pray for the man who had hurt my son.

    Aside from a dose of perspective, something this left me with is a belief that all the metrics we normally use to measure each other don’t really mean much. By all the standard metrics, my son, not the co-worker, is where our sympathies should lay. But my son is very warm and affectionate, he freely gives love and is loved in return, and there isn’t an ounce of mean spiritness or malice in him. In those ways, he seems to be the more successful human person.

    I have seen this sort of thing time and time again. For example, I helped with a developmentally disabled adult mountaineering team for several years. One of the members would never match me in income, education, physical endurance, or raw physical strength, but when it comes to personal courage, dedication and compassion for one’s team mates, and other measures of spiritual strength, I do not even come close.

    It is something I try to keep in mind.

    I’ve been a lurker for awhile, but here’s a Christmas prayer I wrote recently:

    God of our grace and light
    God of our suffering and darkness
    Remind us again
    of your vulnerability
    and compassion
    Give us faith like a child
    faith in the child
    that opened our eyes to love
    and broke down the divisions
    of humanity

  17. amanda says:

    another lurker, coming out.

    my prayer is that I wouldn’t give in to pride, self-righteousness, and my tendency to be o-so-independent.

  18. Christine says:

    I wish I wrote poetry, but I’m afraid of trying. The most I can manage is blog posts comparing teeth to boobs.

  19. stephanie says:

    i was blessed with the opportunity to be the leader for the teenage girls at my church and this fall due to a variety of personal reasons, i stepped out of that responsibility. it left a lot of the girls heartbroken, confused and very angry with me. because of the circumstances, i was very frustrated and felt attacked by my church.

    and yesterday my youth pastor and i reconciled the situation and next month i step into leadership again. there are no amounts of words to describe how excited and humbled i am to be given the opportunity to show these girls Christ’s love again. to look back at my relationship with Christ this past may and where it is now, i know that the Lord is going to be able to accomplish so many great things because i am so much more connected to him now than i was then.

    God’s grace is (beyond) sufficient for me.

  20. Dale says:

    Great idea (open mic). Starting a blog about faith from a confused religious background (Mennonite, Catholic, Baptist, AOG and Lutheran). Enjoy all of it and frustrated by a lot.

  21. Dadofiandi says:

    Thanks for your post Fitz.
    I am running the PF Chang marathon in PHX Jan 18th. I have asked my facebook friends and now ask you all to donate a 1$(it can be more as well) for each mile I run (26.2) to a cause near to your heart. It gives me incentive to run as well as encouragement. If you are curious about my running or my rants you can click on my name and it should take you to my blog.
    I really enjoy this blog, commentators and lament I don’t live in Seattle to visit quest and escape this heat (well not now).

    Let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.

  22. Laura says:

    Here’s a series of poems that I wrote this fall, “Fall in the Garden.” I started this blog writing primarily sonnets, to practice writng poetry with restrictions, and I’ve since moved off of that, so these are not sonnets, but I did limit each one to fourteen lines.

  23. alexoh says:

    “A human being is a part of a whole, called by us ‘universe’, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest… a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.”

    Albert Einstein

  24. Dadofiandi says:

    If you all could send post cards to this boy it would mean a lot to him. Connor Bourke is a very special kid who was recently diagnosed with a very rare form of brain cancer. His prognosis is grim but we are all continuing to pray for a miracle. His particular cancer is called Gliomatosis Cerebri. His address is 821 Mary Ct., Jefferson, WI 53549.
    If you are on facebook here is his group.

One Day’s Wages

My Instagram

My Padawan. My son. My youngest. Encouraging him to not just hit the hoop courts but also the books. Minhee and I met these college boys when we first arrived in Seattle in 1997. They were part of our bible study that we led in our apartment for college students. They were also among the group of 7 people that helped start @seattlequest.

Much has changed in the world...but not their friendship and love. Thank you Jin and George. We love and honor you. These are crazy times in our country and larger world but nevertheless, we're going to keep pursuing the things that God has placed upon our hearts. We're pressing forward...doing our part to reflect mercy, compassion, and justice - locally and globally.

Wednesdays are my @onedayswages office day and I especially love the culmination of hard work for our interns, volunteers, 2 full-time staff, and board as we collaborate with our NGO partners. This week, we signed these checks as we granted out over $75,000 to provide better health care for mothers and their families in Mali and Nepal.

THANK YOU for making this possible Your classic play it cool because you're visiting your old stomping grounds at Princeton and pretend you're not cold but in actuality, you're freezing picture. 20 years, 2 weeks, and counting. What a journey with this woman. I love her...and I want to keep growing in love, honor, and respect. Great to catch up with @jlin7 in Brooklyn at the Nets game. Grateful for his partnership with @onedayswages to support our Girls' Empowerment Fund. The season hasn't been what he hoped for with major injuries...but we can't wait to see you back on the court soon and do what you do. Stay encouraged, brother. Thanks for your faithful witness for Christ.

Holiday Photography Tips - Family and Kids!

As a mom I am often asked by others in pursuit of the perfect holiday shot or family picture for tips and insight. Recently  I shared just such advice with SheKnows.com for a feature with other moms who have a passion for photography and photos. You can read the whole article {HERE}

When it comes right down to it - the one awesome shot you will love forever and ever is usually one that happens by chance, so always be ready and click away to capture the moment. If you missed it during Christmas, don't put away the camera yet because the kids are off school for another week and you still have New Year's Eve!

As I told SheKnows ...

"Don't be overly concerned about the messy hair or skinned knees. These photos are for you — to document your life. And if you decide to send out holiday cards... well, your real friends don't judge! Be yourself, and let the love for your family show through genuinely. These are the shots people talk about!"

Hair Jewelry Using a Vintage Brooch

Most of us have an heirloom from our mothers or grandmothers that includes a very ornate brooch that we keep ... but never really wear.

I recently went to a black tie gala and my husband and I were channeling a little Great Gatsby, so I attached a flower pin to a simple headband and finished the look off with a string of pearls.

For New Year's Eve why not add a little sparkle to your simple soft wave with a vintage pin or clip earring worn in your hair?

Radiant Orchid is 2014 Pantone Color of the YEAR!

Move over Emerald green and make way for the 2014 Pantone Color the YEAR .... drumroll please .... Radiant Orchid! The perfect choice for your mani/pedi!

What I find most interesting is that the 2012 color of the year was tangerine tango, and 2013 emerald green ... these are both secondary colors to purple.

Pantone doesn't just pull this color out of a hat, it searches the world over to find the trending colors each year, considering influences of the entertainment industry, art and fashion. I love this orchid color and think it is flattering on most every skin tone. Can't wait to play with pops of this color for makeup and clothing.

Bite Beauty high pigment matte pencil in Violet

 Giuseppe-Zanotti pumps

Even the royal KATE is jumping on this trend:

A Model's Top Ten Beauty Product Reommendations for Camera Ready Photos.

I have been asked so many times to reveal my All time favorite beauty products, so I thought I would start with my TOP TEN tried and true go-tos. These are the beauty choices I make every time I'm on television or need to be camera ready - for they have never failed me!

1. Giorgio Armani Maestro Foundation. One of the highest rated foundations by makeup artists for flawless perfection. Great coverage with a satin, light luminous finish - perfect for those high definition cameras!

2. Lorac's TANtalizer. My best feature are my legs and living in Arizona I get to show off nearly every day wearing shorts and skirts. My absolute best recommendation besides self tanning is this product to give a nice bronzed glow. Great to use all over before a swimsuit photo too ... anything darker recedes in photos and everything helps for those days.

3. HOURGLASS Aura Sheer Cheek Stain. I have to admit, I own all three colors. The great part of using a cheek stain is that it doesn't fade like powder or smear down like cream blush. Don't be intimidated by the color - it is VERY sheer and does not go on as dark as it appears. Secret trick: Layer this underneath highlighting blush and it will last all day long.

4. Beauty BlenderIf you thought all sponges were created equal when it comes to makeup application, this one will prove you wrong. I have no idea why, but this little gem makes it look like you have almost used an airbrush to apply. No edges means no lines and the tip is perfect for getting underneath your eyes perfectly.

5. Amazing Cosmetics Concealer. One of my favorite concealers because it blends and erases any hyper-pigmentation so easily. Water resistant and  it comes in lots of different shades.

6. Smashbox Photo Finish Lid Primer. This is a must have for anyone who wears eyeshadow. Not only does it prevent creasing, but no matter what brand of eyeshadow this will help it look better and last longer. I am also a big fan of the under eye primer in this line too. Both brighten the eye instantly.

7. Makeup Forever HD High Definition Powder. This year is all about a matte looking face, but there's a difference between matte and dry. This powder not only sets my makeup, but it mattifies the skin flawlessly which is key in front of high definition cameras that can see every pore. It is translucent which means it is invisible color for all skin. You can wear as a finishing powder or on a bare face alone.

8. Brazilian Blowout Acai Smoothing Serum. I use this every morning on my wet hair before blow drying. Not only does it prevent frizz but it coats the cuticle to protect it, locking in moisture and giving great shine.

9. YSL Touche Éclat. A concealer/highlighting pen that literally brings light to your face without any sparkle. Using this product always makes me look well rested. Check out my post about all the places on your face you should be highlighting {HERE}.

10. Givenchy Mister Mat Mattifying Foundation Primer. I must admit that I have tried alot of primers - far too many to remember or count. No matter what I buy or try, I always go back to Mister Mat. A primer makes the difference in flawless foundation application, but many times they are too greasy or have so much silicone that they literally "ball up" on my face. I especially love Mr Mat because he doesn't leave me with an oil slick when I'm done putting on my face. Key for on camera work and makes it so I need less powder too.

How to look like a Victoria Secret Fashion Show Model - 2013 video peek

Makeup by Margarita Potts

Every woman has a little secret ... above is a photo from my own inner angel transformation last month.

In just a few weeks, on Dec 10, the  2013 Victoria Secret Fashion Show that just taped a few days ago will air on CBS. I always look forward to watching because it motivates me to stand taller, wear heels, eat better and try harder with my own beauty regime.

Here's a video of the Victoria Secret Fashion Show:

Don't be too hard on yourself ... these girls have advantages beyond good genes to looking this wonderful: stylists, professional makeup artists,  extra hair, and perfect lighting! There's a reason their call time is 9am for an 8pm show! It takes alot of effort to look that good!

Here's a few of their tricks:

What you might not realize is that most of the Victoria Secret models are wearing hair extensions. Models' hair is typically damaged from the constant products and styling required for multiple photo shoots and appearances. Watch this video to see how they are matching up extensions for one of the models, at minute 7:08 to 7:30. Most of us don't have stylist to help us every day so read on to learn about a new design hair extension that anyone can put on themselves in less than 30 seconds.

The best human hair in extensions to buy is REMY hair, it is 100% real and cuticle correct meaning the cuticles all lay in the same direction which makes it soft, silky and less apt to tangle. Because it's REAL hair, you can color it for a perfect match to your own, but a word of advice - because this hair is already processed you do not want to lighten, only deposit color. Lowlights, toner or all over color. Unless you can find a perfect match I suggest taking it to your stylist to color for you. Here's a photo from theFashionspot.com's backstage photos pass just to give you an idea of how many extensions are used in the show:

Real hair is also measured by weight. For my own hair which is long, somewhat fine but lots of it, I find that 120 grams is the right amount to add fullness and body.

Clip in extensions are great, but they can damage your own hair sometimes and the tracks can be hard to hide so people might notice.

My favorite hair extension design is called Hidden Crown halo style hair extensions and it is literally a whole set of extensions on a transparent wire which requires no glue, no clips and gives no damage to your own hair. It literally takes less than a minute to put on and you just pull your own hair over top to hold it in. You can shake your head up and down - side to side, and it doesn't come off!

Here I am getting glammed up with my Hidden Crown Hair extensions prior to my own Victoria Secret-esque shoot. Order yours at www.hiddencrown.com

Victoria Secret runway girls and women in athletic competitions always get a tan on before competing. A tan will automatically make you look a bit thinner

Of course nothing can replace regular workouts at the gym and a healthy diet, but you can fake more muscle tone by applying tanner or bronzer strategically in areas that you want to define.

The trick is doing it in 2 steps. First an all over color and then a second layer or contour bronzer. For the second step you will want to add deeper color to the sides of your stomach - this is to make the love handles disappear. (Use this same concept for slimmer thighs) Then flex your muscles and make a line down the center of your abs and finish with horizontal lines to define your muscle tone.

My favorite self tanners are St Tropez and Phenomenal by Vita Liberata (the world's first 2-3 week tan!), for bronzer use Lorac's Tantalizer - especially wonderful to add some shine down the front of your shins.

We don't always have control over this, but one thing that makeup artists always make sure to do is add highlights to our face with light reflecting products, often using 2 different colors of foundation to contour the face.

To perfect a  fuller pouty lip, draw a line straight across your cupid's bow in a pinky tone just a tad darker than your own lip color before adding your favorite lipstick - finish with a dab of gloss in the center. I have no idea why, but this trick gives an optical illusion of bigger more kissable lips!

Strictly limit sodium. and drink lots of water to flush out toxins.
Eating can be as simple as fruits and vegetables as long as you stay clear from gassy veggies like broccoli, brussel sprouts and cauliflower. And avoid dairy and starches. Read a few more in depth tips on how to de-bloat {HERE}

One thing every one of these Victoria Secrets girls' will tell you is that they work out every. single. day. But models don't hit it hard core, many do Pilates, yoga and jogging. They tone, and watch what they eat so their weight doesn't fluctuate.

If you're headed to the beach in your bikini and want your thighs to look their thinnest, skip the heavy weights the day before. Hitting the iron too hard can make lactic acid build up and make your muscles temporarily swell.

Finding your Fashion Style without a Personal Stylist!

As a model there are a few things you pick up walking in show after show. Each designer's goal is to make their clothing stand out so models are sent down the runway looking somewhat the same, with usually these three things kept constant:

So it makes sense then that you could use this strategy in reverse, to stand out. In other words, regardless of whatever clothing designer you are wearing, lose the model uniformity by developing your own personal style as simply as changing your hair, makeup and shoes!

I recently sat down with All Parenting writer Molly Smith to share these ideas in depth and the simple ways to develop a signature style from a model mom's perspective.You can read the entire interview and all my tips {HERE}

My best advice ... always, always, always,"Dress for the part you want to have and never get lazy with this!"

Working out is an important part of my daily routine but it's important not to get so comfortable in workout clothes that you end up sitting in spandex at lunch with your girlfriends. This is NOT a style. Go home and throw on jeans, boots and a sweater ... you'll feel better about yourself, and that will show ---- on or off the runway!

Like Cinderella looking in the mirror, you might be just as frighted or maybe overwhelmed, with the concept of shaving your face - but check out the biggest secret that Japanese women, not to mention models, this one included: I have been doing it for years ...

Contouring is the New Photoshop! #NoFilter

 photo courtesy of craveonline.com
Because you can't always walk into a room with Photoshop, there are many things you can do to make sure you always look picture perfect! Sculpting your face without surgery, is simple to do if you understand how and what products to use. You literally can transform your face with this magical illusion.

Until recently this maneuver was reserved for A listers who could afford celebrity makeup artists who have long understood the purpose of doing so, but there's no reason that the rest of us need be kept in the dark. I wrote about how to DIY in my book by using your face shape as a guide with a specific tutorial. If you want to fine tune your skills as per your face shape check out Chapter 6 of Face This: Real Advice from Real Models available for only $7.99 {HERE}, not to mention all the  great photo and posing tricks you will learn.

But basically the concept is simple. An oval face shape is what you are trying to emulate, so you want to contour areas outside of a centered oval. Contouring will make areas recede. So, if you have a square jaw you will want to contour your jaw line more, if you have a high forehead you will want to contour the top of your hairline more.

You don't need to go out and buy any special products, anything that is 1-2 shades lighter than your foundation will work, for example Loreal's true match makeup works, any concealer is great too because you usually buy this lighter than your foundation. Anything that is light, sheer and shimmery will do the job!

For contouring, anything darker than your normal skin tone is perfect whether it be a bronzing powder or cream/liquid. But for contour be sure it is not shimmery - you are trying to create shadows here and not draw attract the light. The biggest secret to getting it right - BLEND, BLEND, BLEND!

For your nose: If you have a wide nose, contour the sides. Highlight down the center of your nose - the slimmer the line the more narrow your nose will look. If it's long, contour the tip.

For cheeks: Apply your blush beginning at the apple of your cheek and sweep upward toward your temples. Highlight above and contour below in the hollow - underneath your cheek bone. Make the fish face to know exactly where this is.

Highlighting the center of your face brings out that ideal oval shape .

Always contour your neck. This will give you a stronger jaw line, which becomes more critical as you age because skin sags here first.

My favorite place to highlight that most people forget is the clavicle! The product I find easiest to use here is the same one I use on top of my cheekbones to brighten underneath my eyes:  Smashbox Photo-op.  Makeup artists use this to bring life to model's eyes when the call time is 5am!

Over 40 Best Makeup Tips - Change is good!

You've gotten older and so have your makeup techniques. Time to re-evaluate and update your bag of tricks.

Foundation & Powder : Do not go darker with your foundation so you feel tan. This is why God invented bronzer - use it on areas that are naturally kissed by the sun. Don't pale out; this too looks unnatural. The secret to looking younger while you're getting older is to embrace the skin you're born with and enhance it -  not cover it up!

      P.S. Smoky eye or bold lip - never both.

Brow Highlighter : Avoid using a brow highlighter that's too light or white. This is so 80's, and will definitely add 10 years to your look! Especially if you have any hooding to your eyelid ... it will immediately draw attention to it (See for yourself in the photo above). A soft pink matte eye shadow on the brow bone will be your ticket to an eye lift naturally.

Eyeliner : Yes on top - it will make your lashes look fuller, and lift. No to bottom lashes - it will make your eyes look smaller, droopy and can draw attention to bags or lines underneath.

Nude lips : Yes, it's a trend but like all trends, not always a good one. Careful ... just 2 shades too light will make you look dead and that's never flattering. Choose a stain or pencil just a bit darker than your skin tone for a natural look and finish it with a pink lip gloss on top.

I partnered with Cover Girl in the video below for more tips on how to avoid common makeup mistakes.

I have left my laughter in stations forgotten

Lost and gone to echo down tracks forlorn

No one to bring home as the peels scattered

Forgotten broadcasts in fields barely known

Abandoned to find reception fading alone

Uncertain welcome like refugees scattered

Knowing only transient rooting, wandering,

Recalling hopes of migratory ancestors meandering

Soundings in passages and places scattered

Rendering to the memory the unforgotten

To show the world I was begotten

As I pass through life and at death be scattered.

Software-as-a-service providers are back with new and more popular offerings

Government executives soured on the idea of outsourcing software operations when most of the pioneering application service providers (ASPs) went belly up during the dot-com bust. But some have decided they are ready to give it another try.

The stigma has not completely faded, but ASP outsourcing has reinvented itself in a more user-friendly and efficient guise as software as a service (SaaS). Some people use the term on-demand applications. Just as telephone customers pay to use a service and don’t buy the telephone network, SaaS customers pay to use software developed, operated and maintained by a service provider.

Market analysts say a covey of SaaS providers is poised to take off, having taken heed of their predecessors’ painful lessons and benefiting from some recent industry trends. If that happens, government agencies might finally accept a fee-for-service, utility-based computing model, a vision Defense Department officials and others strongly endorse.

“We’re living in a world where organizations have decided that they don’t want to deal with the hassles of technology and software any longer, or they can’t afford to deal with them,” said Jeff Kaplan, a senior consultant at the Cutter Consortium, a global information technology advisory firm. “What they really want is functionality without the technology, and SaaS is increasingly making that happen.”

Private-sector organizations have led the way so far, embracing SaaS enterprise applications such as sales and marketing tools, Web content management and enterprise resource planning systems. Early government adopters included the Defense Information Systems Agency, the Military Health System, and many state and local agencies.

More are likely to follow. Spending on business process outsourcing and application services will be the fastest-growing segment of a federal outsourcing market expected to grow 5.9 percent annually, from $13.3 billion in fiscal 2007 to $17.7 billion by 2011, according to a recent Input study.

“A lot of the pieces are falling into place that might set this up for some significant growth within the government,” said John Slye, a senior analyst at Input. “It’s really a matter of when, not if, government agencies will embrace SaaS.”

A new paradigm
The ASP companies of the late 1990s were often network infrastructure firms that licensed enterprise software from other companies such as Microsoft, Oracle and SAP. The ASP then hosted the third-party software on its servers and sold use of it to customers. Those customers gained access to the software via a private network.

Unlike the older-generation ASPs, the new SaaS providers are also software developers. They design software for Web-based operations and maximum flexibility. Those differences are important.

“The traditional enterprise applications like SAP and Oracle were designed really to accommodate the IT architecture and database structure of the traditional data center environment and really weren’t user-friendly,” Kaplan said. “The new, net-native applications were actually created to reside on the Internet, so they’re more user-friendly, they’re more flexible, and they’re less expensive.”

Major software developers such as IBM, Microsoft, Oracle and SAP are becoming SaaS providers, along with a host of smaller, niche players such as Avue Technologies, CrownPeak, dbaDirect, ESI Information Technologies and RightNow Technologies.

Much of the recent SaaS uptick can be traced to the success of, a SaaS company founded in 1999 by a former Oracle executive. That company stood out from most other application outsourcing firms at the time because it hosted and sold access to its own enterprise customer relationship management (CRM) application. Clients got all the benefits of the application without the back-end infrastructure costs and maintenance hassles of traditional enterprise software.

Companies soon discovered the easy-to-use service, and today has more than 30,000 clients, 625,000 subscribers and revenues topping $500 million. Its largest customer is financial-services powerhouse Merrill Lynch, which recently increased its subscription to 25,000 seats, essentially its entire workforce.

“The success of has really helped legitimize the SaaS marketplace,” Kaplan said. Since then, however, other major players such as IBM, Oracle and SAP have entered the market, and people are recognizing that this is not just a fad. It’s a fundamental change in the marketplace.

A 2006 survey conducted by the Cutter Consortium concluded that 31 percent of private-sector organizations are using SaaS, and another 43 percent are considering it. Moreover, SaaS buyers are not limited to small and midsize businesses that are unwilling or unable to pay for traditional enterprise applications. A surprisingly large number of them are well-financed enterprises weary of their existing applications’ low return on investment, Kaplan said.

Getting in the game
Many government agencies also find it unappealing to maintain traditional applications and handle tasks such as storage, data administration and security. And that is a trend that bodes well for SaaS providers.

Support fatigue is one reason why DISA, the most high-profile federal agency to embrace SaaS so far, awarded a contract last year to IBM for an on-demand subscription to the company’s Lotus SameTime Suite of collaboration tools, which include application sharing, text messaging, electronic whiteboards and audio/video services.

That contract, part of DISA’s Net-Centric Enterprise Services strategy, calls at IBM to host and maintain all hardware, software and unclassified data at its own facility in Herndon, Va. Classified data is hosted by IBM on-site at an undisclosed government facility.

“The government really has no responsibility other than to pay for what is truly a service,” said John Thomas, a DOD delivery executive at IBM. “They’re not burdened with responsibility for software licensing, implementing new user requirements, keeping up with the current state of technology. That’s our job now, and they can focus on more mission-critical tasks.”

Other issues are driving government agencies to consider using SaaS, such as shrinking IT budgets, an aging workforce and a trend toward lengthy competitive-sourcing procurements. The Office of Management and Budget’s Line of Business Centers of Excellence program is also pushing federal agencies toward the SaaS model. That program requires agencies to act as an application host for other agencies or have their own applications hosted by someone else.

“I think it’s forced a lot of agencies to say, ‘As I do my application upgrade, I want to have more control over who’s going to be providing that service to me — as opposed to OMB forcing me in some direction,’ ” said Wayne Bobby, vice president of finance and administration solutions at Oracle.

The potential cost benefits of the SaaS model provide additional strong incentives. Applications can be deployed quickly, and the total cost of ownership of a typical SaaS application is 20 percent to 40 percent less than the cost of a traditional customer-installed application, said Rob Rose, vice president of marketing and product strategy at CrownPeak, which sells a SaaS Web content management service. Other vendors claim overall savings of as much as 80 percent.

Service a key factor
In the end, the tipping point for many agency decision-makers often has less to do with money and more with the level of service a vendor can provide via the SaaS model.

“It’s not this massive IT deployment,” said Mike Goodrich, director of administration for the Arlington County, Va., Economic Development Department, which subscribes to’s CRM application to help manage its customer contact and outreach activities. “We don’t have to spend a lot of time engineering it. We simply use it. And if we need something changed, they take care of it in minutes and deploy it out to all our users.”

Deanna Boehm, director of marketing at Virginia Interactive, reported a similar positive experience. That organization has been relying on CrownPeak’s content management system service to manage the state and local agencies that use the Web site. “We always have an immediate, expert response to solving problems and implementing portal changes,” she said.

The Military Health System is also reaping the benefits of enhanced service. The agency asked Oracle to provide its Federal Financials application in a SaaS environment two years ago.

“In those two years, they haven’t had one minute of unplanned downtime,” Bobby said. “They don’t even see any bugs in the system, because we’re able to identify them and fix them before they even know they’re there. We can do upgrades, new software releases and patches much, much quicker than they could ever do on their own.”

That kind of service can be appealing to resource-strapped state and local governments. For example, IT managers in Butler County, Ohio, buy hosted services for virus scanning and remote PC access. The latter, which is provided by, relieves the IT department of an administrative burden and gives the county another level of security that doesn’t have to be managed in-house, all of which helps reduce its overall risk exposure, said Greg Sullivan, the county’s management information systems director.

“We are now on the lookout for other hosted services that will also be beneficial to us,” Sullivan said. “If a SaaS application can help us reduce costs or provide us with less risk than we have now, then we’re interested in taking a hard look at it.”

SaaS is not your grandfather's ASPIt’s easy to assume that software as a service is just an application service provider with a fancy new name, but that’s not the case, industry analysts say. SaaS has roots in the old ASP model — some even call it ASP 2.0 — but at least three significant differences distinguish the two.

Third-party network and server infrastructure vendors host popular applications developed by other companies.

SaaS: Software developers such as IBM, Microsoft, Oracle and others host their own applications.

Applications developed originally for an enterprise client/server architecture are modified for deployment in a Web-based hosted environment.

SaaS: Applications are developed specifically for deployment in a Web-based, hosted environment.

ASP mostly relies on a single-tenant model, meaning each application runs on its own server infrastructure.

SaaS: SaaS relies on a multitenant model, allowing for greater scalability and economies of scale.

Do homework before signing a SaaS contractAs with any outsourcing arrangement, contracting with a software-as-a-service provider requires some preparation and due diligence. Business experts recommend these seven steps.
  • Plan an educational campaign for senior managers to inform them of the differences between the SaaS and application service provider models.
  • Ensure a strong business case by making sure that your SaaS vendor can frame costs within an annual budget cycle and bill accordingly.
  • Carefully evaluate the true costs of a traditional application versus SaaS, including hardware, related software and administrative costs.
  • Investigate a potential vendor’s track record of performance and financial health. The better ones will be certified under SAS 70, an auditing standard developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
  • If security is an issue, make sure that the vendor can also provide on-premises hosting of data deemed too sensitive to move off-site.
  • SaaS applications tend to be standardized, but if there are agency-specific needs that require customization, check that the provider can accommodate those necessary modifications.
  • Consider all issues associated with hosted services, including service-level agreements, data access, business continuity and security.

National Security

Cyber threats top the list of military, intelligence concerns

futuristic cyberwar

Government officials across Washington this week are agreeing that threats to cyber assets pose one of the biggest risks to national security, according to high-level Defense Department and intelligence community officials.

In a March 12 Senate Armed Services Committee hearing, Gen. Keith Alexander, commander of U.S. Cyber Command and director of the National Security Agency, warned lawmakers that cyber attacks from a growing "roster of actors" threaten U.S. interests now and in the future. His testimony came on the same day as the director of national intelligence released a report citing cyber as the chief concern in an annual report on top global threats.

"When you look at the strategic landscape from our perspective, it's getting worse," he told committee members. "Cyber effects are growing."

Alexander continued his calls on Congress to pass legislation to complement the administration's executive order, reiterating the need for real-time information to better be shared between the government and private critical infrastructure operators. He also said laws are necessary to establish a clear chain of command when it comes to government response to cyber attacks.

"It takes a team to operate in cyberspace," Alexander said. "But at times I think in talking about the team approach, we're not clear on who's in charge when."

To that end, the commander did note that work is ongoing in mapping out rules of engagement for military operations in cyberspace. That work is being done in addition to ramped up recruiting, training and the creation of mission teams that will defend the U.S. against national-level cyber threats and operate in cyberspace. The teams will include 13 teams focused on conducting offense and 27 teams to help combatant commands with offensive planning.

Read the Worldwide Threat Assessment

Alexander said the first one-third of those teams will stand up by September of this year, the second one-third next September and the final third a year from that.

Kehler said that at STRATCOM, efforts are under way to collaborate with CYBERCOM and prepare for cyber operations, but much remains to be done – and both generals agreed that sequestration poses readiness concerns for those preparations.

"In general terms...we need to be better at exercising against threats," Kehler said, adding that working with Alexander and his command, as well as red-teaming exercises, is part of the ongoing process. "We have a ways to go before we can put the punctuation mark at the end of the sentence."

The generals' comments come just as Director of National Intelligence James Clapper released his office's Worldwide Threat Assessment. This year's assessment marks a shift for the annual report, in which the most critical concerns center on cyber threats rather than the traditional dangers associated with physical warfare.

"Threats are more diverse, interconnected, and viral than at any time in history," Clapper wrote in the introduction to the assessment. "Attacks, which might involve cyber and financial weapons, can be deniable and unattributable. Destruction can be invisible, latent and progressive."

The report cites as top dangers cyber espionage and other crime, critical infrastructure threats, information control and governance, and erosion of U.S. security and economy due to the penetration of foreign actors into American networks.

The assessment goes on to note the shifting nature of global security risks – and what that means for the future as digital and physical domains continue to become inextricably linked.

"The growing use of cyber capabilities to achieve strategic goals is also outpacing the development of a shared understanding of norms of behavior, increasing the chances for miscalculations and misunderstandings that could lead to unintended escalation," the report stated. "In response to the trends and events that happen in cyberspace, the choices we and other actors make in coming years will shape cyberspace for decades to come, with potentially profound implications for U.S. economic and national security."

Frankly in my opinion, I would tell DoD to do its homework, and stop the wolf tickets. From my experience, education, and enthusiasm for this functional area it is another attempt by the DoD to keep dollars for obsolete programs and systems at the expense of Cyber Security. From what I see the DoD sector participates in very little information sharing with other Critical Infrastructures, very little of its personnel (military and civilian) are educated and trained in the functions of cyber security, information assurance, and financial management.

Again my opinion, the legislative branch of government should go back and ask U.S. Strategic Command and its subordinate command U.S. Cyber Command were these concerns presented as part of your Integrated Priority List for funding in the recent Program Objective Memorandum (POM)? Hmmm what priority did you give these Cybersecurity missions?

I believe DoD is taking away from other Critical Infrastructures, ie, Energy, and Higher Education both major, major, players in global products in the world, so really DoD, do your analysis and then let’s talk.

FFRF Gives $33,000 in student essay scholarships in 2013

The Freedom From Religion Foundation, an educational state-church watchdog with nearly 20,000 nonreligious members nationwide, has awarded $33,000 in cash scholarships to 48 deserving student recipients this year.

FFRF has offered essay competitions to college students since 1979. In 1994, FFRF added a separate contest for college-bound high school seniors. FFRF debuted its “graduate/mature students over age 25” competition in 2010.

The awards have gradually increased to $3,000 for the first-place essay, $2,000 for second place, $1,000 for third place, $500 for fourth place and $300 for a newly offered fifth place. Several $200 “honorable mentions” are awarded at the judges’ discretion.

Brian Bolton, a retired psychologist, humanist minister and formerly a professor with the University of Arkansas, sponsored the graduate competition. "Why the U.S. is not a Christian nation" was the topic for the 2013 contest.

The late sociologist Michael Hakeem, for whom the ongoing college student contest is named, was an FFRF officer and active atheist known by a generation of University of Wisconsin-Madison students. This year's college topic was, "Why I don't believe in God."

The annual contest for college-bound high school seniors is named for the late William J. Schultz, a Wisconsin member who left a major bequest to FFRF. This year's high school topic was "Challenges of being a young freethinker." The high school essays this year included poignant accounts of religion forced on football teams, deaths of family members and teachers comparing atheism to smoking.

FFRF would also like to thank Dorea and Dean Schamm of Florida for providing eligible students with a $50 bonus. The winning essays have appeared in recent issues of Freethought Today, FFRF's newspaper edited by Bill Dunn, which is published 10 times a year.

"We consider our student scholarships as among FFRF's most important endeavors," said FFRF Co-President Annie Laurie Gaylor. "So many scholarships reward orthodoxy and belief, but very few award critical thinking about religion."

Please come back in February 2014 for guidelines to next year's essay competition.
