Goodman from customersatisfaction.com Your child slips and suddenly he’s about to fall down some stairs.What can you do?"Grab him fast!"Right?Of course.

| | | Music Video of the Day: Various Artists - Bagong Simula | | 2008-06-22 18:09:55 | | "Various artists" songs with themes about helping humanity often feature popstars, balladeers, belters and the like. They all tend to sound alike and sound boring, despite the good messages they provide.This song, however, catches my attention because it's different. It features ROCKSTARS man! This song is the theme song of ABS-CBN's new advocacy program, "Bayanijuan", organized in celebration of the station's 55th year on the air."Bayanijuan", with the theme “Walang Iwanan sa Bayan Ni Juan” re-imagines the Filipino volunteer spirit, or “bayanihan,” as a force to create a better, more compassionate Philippines for ourselves and our children.Performers:Kevin Roy (Razorback)Yael Yuzon (Sponge Cola)Marc Abaya (Kjwan)Kitchie NadalYeng ConstantinoPlacidTugmaCREDITS:concept: Danie Sedilla-CruzCreative prod Head: Johnny de los SantosDirectors: Robert Labayen/Peewee GonzalesLyrics: Robert Labayenmusic: Jonathan Manalodesign and compositing: Oliver PalerProducer: Hancel HernandezProduct | | By: Pinoy Fries | | |

| | LFW Part 6: Make-up Artists Tell Us How To Achieve Runway Looks | | 2008-06-06 07:54:00 | | Arshiya FakihTo complement Arshiya Fakih's modern silhouettes with Indian aesthetics, Cory Walia kept the look classic with a contemporary edge. "If the make-up and hair is loud, it shadows the collection as the attention is drawn away from the clothes," he explains. Here's how you can achieve the look: Use a gold highlighter and golden tinted moisturizer to add a touch of subtle glamour to your face but mute the gold patina to keep the clothes the main event.Smudge some M.A.C Smolder Eye Kohl on the eyes, add M.A.C Tan Pigment on your lids and extend it all the way to your brow bone. Apply M.A.C Fleur Power Blush to the apples of your cheeks. Dab a soft pinky-coral lipgloss (M.A.C Lychee Luxe Lipglass) on your lips, and you're done.

To him, the new glamour translated into smoky eyes and crimson lips. Here's how you can copy the look: Skip the mascara and define lashes with a curler. Yatan loves Shu Uemura's Eyelash CurlerDab your lips with foundation (Shu Uemura Face Architect Foundation) before you apply several coats of crimson lipstick (Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited Lipstick in 276). Add a layer of translucent powder (Shu Uemura Sheer Face Powder) between coats to make the lipstick's satin formula darker and more matte.Finish off by contouring your cheeks with Shu Uemura Warm Sun Bronzing Powder.

| | LFW Part 2: Make-up Artists Tell Us How To Achieve Runway Looks | | 2008-05-30 06:56:00 | | Suneet VarmaJojo and Yatan tell us how we can achieve Suneet Varma’s "traditional Japanese" look: Apply dramatic eye liner (M.A.C Boot Black Eyeliner) and red lipstick (M.A.C Russian Red Lipstick) for rosebud mouths on an otherwise neutral canvas. Since you're going for strong eye and lip make-up, you might not need blush at all. Use liquid tint (M.A.C Improper Copper Cream Color Base) instead. Go gradually, patting a bit on and blending it out; liquid tints stain the cheek with colour, and the intensity is hard to reduce once it's on. They also dry fast, so you have to blend quickly.

| | 30 / 30 -- Thirty Years of Hamilton Artists Inc | | 2008-05-12 11:01:00 | | This video was initially six metres wide by two and a half metres tall, and had separately edited intertitles. The audio was initially presented in a three-channel discreet mono format with stereo music accompaniment.Without prejudice toward the previous fifty, I am fond of the last twelve minutes of the video.Now 30 / 30 can be watched in a crappy online version, taken from a DVD source that I made a year and a half ago. Perhaps I will format this for a 60 by 90 pixel cellphone to make the film eminently portable and completely unwatchable.Notes from the DVD:30 / 30a video by Quintin Hewlett, done in 200630 / 30 is an impressionistic celebration of art as it is practised in the city of Hamilton, Ontario.

So foundation’s not just smoothed over the whole skin, it’s applied on strategic spots.Vimi's pick: M.A.C Face and Body FoundationMake-up artist Gordon Espinet, for M.A.C votes for an even skin tone, without shimmer. ‘‘The only sheen your face should have is the one that comes from your skin,’’ he says. He further describes it as ‘‘The glow that comes from within when you’ve got incredibly hydrated skin.’’Gordon's pick: M.A.C Select TintEyesThe eyes are in focus this year and they look super glam. ‘‘When the skin is plain and lips are sheer, the eyes are made up,’’ says Gordon.

| | Make-up Artists Gouri K. and Nayana B. Talk About S/S 2008's Make-up Trends | | 2008-03-04 06:00:00 | | Spring and summer are just around the corner, bringing along cheerful and vibrant colors. So, as the colors of the rainbow translate into your clothes, allow them to filter into your make-up as well. Make-up for Spring/Summer 2008 is all about bright hues, celebrating the joyous mood of the season. It’s the season for super glossy squeaky-clean skin, completely free of foundation. The idea is to drink a lot of water to flush away all the toxins to get radiant skin. Make-up artist Nayana Billings, explains, “Foundation is a big no-no, during the day or night. We make-up artists call it the sheer clean look. Drink lots of water to keep your skin healthy. At the most, use tinted moisturizer with SPF. No powder! Reiterating her viewpoint, make-up artist Gouri Kapur says, “Foundation is out. All you should do is use a good concealer to get rid of the dark spots. The drama centers around the eyes this spring/summer.”For the Eyes The eyes do all the talking this upcoming season. And a | | By: i heart make-up | | |

Jr, Jim Morrison, James Dean, John Belushi, Gilda Radner, Jonathan Brandis, Chris Farley, Bob Marley, John Candy, Bruce & Brandon Lee, and the latest ones Brad Renfro and Heath Ledger ..... just to name a few......We will never know just how far they would have reached...... may they all rest in peace!!For Kurt Cobain, River Phoenix, Brad Renfro and Heath Ledger case, did it happen because they're too young to be famous? All of them were 20 something actors. Such a shame because they are soo talented and young.Or simply because they couldn't handle the fame and the pressure?Only each individual and God know the answer.Anyhow, we never know when death is coming after us, so I guess we just have to be ready to face it whenever our time comes. | | By: Pure Thought | | |

| | | Santo Domingo Jewelry Artists | | 2008-01-11 13:55:00 | | Strong TraditionsOne of the largest and most prosperous of the Rio Grande Pueblos, Santo Domingo is admired for clinging strongly to its traditions. Its pride, conservatism and relatively large size (3200 people) are strongly committed to maintaining traditional ceremonies and beliefs. This longstanding adherence to tradition can also be seen in its jewelry. The Santo Domingo people do little metalworking. For centuries, they have fashioned necklaces of stone, shell and wood. Its jewelry artists are famous for inlaid pieces, often featuring turquoise on seashell bases. Turquoise, Coral, Lapis, Mother of Pearl, and Jet Inlay Pendants on Freshwater Pearl NecklaceBy Angie Reano Owen, Santo DomingoMosaic InlayShell mosaic is a trademark style of Santo Domingo jewelry, drawing on knowledge dating back many centuries. Many modern Pueblo artists consciously style their inlaid jewelry after styles and patterns unearthed by archaeological research, found in rock art or on display in museums. Modern inlay artists break from the past by using nontraditional colors such as green and purple and contemporary materials. Angie Reano Owen is credited with reviving the tradition of inlaid jewelry in the 1970s, when the market had shifted to heishi beads and silver-and-turquoise jewelry. She was fascinated by her mother's inlay work. In her twenties, she studied Ancestral Pueblo jewelry in museums and private collections, consciously modeling her work after ancient styles.I told my dad I wanted to do something different because everyone was doing heishi. I began doing the actual traditional patterns of the prehistoric things. Later on, the more I refined it, I decided I should have my own style. I shouldn't just be copying what the ancestors did.Shell and Turquoise Inlay NecklaceBy Lupita Calabaza, Santo Domingo The purple shell is a natural color from the Gulf of Mexico.

| | Berkshires, housing-starved artists may find aid in pursuit of space | | 2007-12-25 14:19:00 | | But younger artists in their 30s are finding fewer such bargains. Although real estate is still less expensive than in Boston, prices in the region have been rising at a more rapid pace. Between 2000 and 2006, the average price of a single-family home in Berkshire County increased 85 percent (from $164,000 to $304,000), compared to a 54 percent increase (from $404,000 to $624,000) in Boston during the same time period, according to data Benjamin culled from the Massachusetts Association of Realtors.

| | Make-up Artists Cory and Aniruddha Talk About Body Make-up | | 2007-12-21 06:45:00 | | Amrita RaoPrimers, powders, and shine are no longer just for the face. They are traveling southward to add that much-needed sparkle to your skin. After all, what’s a perfectly made-up face without a body to match? Enter: Body make-up for that smooth and satiny feeling all over.Make-up expert Cory Walia explains that there are two kinds of body make-up. The first and the most essential is make-up that involves bringing all the exposed areas of the body to one tone. The second involves highlighting and contouring.Tone trickMake-up expert Aniruddha Chakladar says, “On most occasions, it is tough to apply make-up to all the exposed areas to match the face. The best option is to create a new skin tone altogether. So bring down the face tone, while lifting the body tone.”Dabbing make-up all over, is impossible. Here, it is important to choose the same tone as the face to coordinate texture and shade.“Before you begin application, smooth over some moisturizer (M.A.C Oil Control Lotion). Dot foundation and then blend with M.A.C 185 Body Buffer Brush,” says Aniruddha. It is also advisable to choose a pan-stick foundation (M.A.C Studio Stick Foundation) rather than messy liquid foundations. “Dust some M.A.C Select Moistureblend to finish,” adds Aniruddha.If the arms are considerably darker than the face and you are hard-pressed for time to indulge in all-over body make-up, then Cory has a trick: “Apply base and colors on your face as you wou | | By: i heart make-up | | |
| | LAist Review: Six Degrees Records' Emerging Artists | | 2007-11-15 15:23:00 | | By Tomdog-LAistOne reason that I like the Six Degrees Records label so much is that it's a high-output label, constantly offering us new artists and music from literally all over the map. Six Degrees is also one of the first labels to truly embrace the web, with digital-only offerings, free downloads, and countless remixes available in almost real-time. Three recent arrivals in Six Degrees web-based Emerging Artist Series are EPs from David Starfire, Alien Chatter, and Harri Kakoulli. Artist: David StarfireAlbum: Bombay Beatz David Starfire's Bombay Beatz starts out incredibly strong with the track "Indian Fever" which sounds familiarly like label-mates Midival Punditz's "Bhangra Fever" and this should be considered a compliment. The great tablas rhythms and twangy sitars means you'll be hearing it on the next LAist mix. Ranging from superb chillout ("Stargazer") to frenetic junglism ("Shaddi") it's a great EP with the exception of the track "Sucka Free". The instrumentation is | | By: Six Degrees Records News | | |

| | Hopi Jewelry Artists | | 2007-11-02 08:33:53 | | The Hopi, Peaceful Ones, have inhabited the Four Corners region of the United States longer than any other tribe has occupied any parcel of land in all of the Americas. Their long history has played an incredible role in their artwork and jewelry.After Navajo, Hopi, and Pueblo artists learned silversmithing from the Spanish in the 1800s, metal jewelry arts blossomed in the Southwest, and distinctive native jewelry developed from the fusion of the new techniques with traditional designs. Overlay Bracelet by Anderson Koinva, Hopi Silversmith This bracelet uses the bold design of lightning, rain, and clouds.Silver Overlay TechniqueDuring the 1940s, the Hopi developed their own unique style of jewelry making, which is called overlay, and it is quite distinctive. The designs used in these works of art are part of the Hopi religion, life, and ceremonies. Animals play a large part in the Hopi religion, and animal designs are typical themes in Hopi jewelry.

| | Navajo Jewelry Artists | | 2007-10-27 09:26:15 | | The Navajo Native Americans are well known for their beautiful jewelry, which today consists largely of silver, but sometimes copper and brass. The Navajo were a fairly nomadic tribe before making their home in the American Southwest. Once settled, the younger Navajo began learning the art of designing their unique jewelry from their elders. The Navajo were in constant contact, some hostile, some friendly, with the Spanish as they continued to populate the Southwest from the late 16th century on. From them, they developed a great appreciation for personal adornment and working with silver.

| | Zuni Jewelry Artists | | 2007-10-22 16:44:59 | | The Zuni TribeThe Zunis have been making jewelry for over 1,000 years, and many of their designs haven't changed much over the years. The Zunis learned silversmithing from the Navajo in the early 1870s. Because the Zuni had permanent homes, unlike the nomadic Navajo, they were able to use many tools that the Navajo couldn't easily carry with them. Zuni Inlay jewelry is among the most coveted handcrafted jewelry in the world today.

| | Native American Jewelry Artists | | 2007-09-05 14:44:07 | | I just love Native American jewelry. I guess it's my Cherokee heritage. I am awed by their workmanship and artistry. And these jewelry artists are prolific. Most of them have dozens of pieces—bracelets, necklaces, and earrings. I found so many beautiful pictures, I'm going to split this into two posts. I hope they inspire you. Before the Europeans came to American shores, native metalwork was fairly simple, consisting primarily of hammering and etching copper into pendants or earrings, and fashioning copper and silver into beads. After Navajo, Hopi, and Pueblo artists learned silversmithing from the Spanish in the 1800's, metal jewelry arts flourished in the Southwest. Distinctive Native American jewelry developed from the combination of new techniques with traditional designs. Navajo Artist: Marla HerreraDenim Lapis Heart, Blue Topaz, and Mabe Pearl Silver Bead NecklaceThe heart is set in a deep, smooth silver bezel encircled by a fine silver rope, with silver work and beads.

He uses only natural gem quality stones and specializes in handcut overlay designs. This sterling silver pony hoof bracelet is inlaid with 29 handcut pieces of natural spiderweb Nevada turquoise and red coral. Sterling Cuff Bracelet with Natural Inlaid Turquoise and Coral Hopi Jewelry Artist: Danny SuppleeDanny learned his art from his brother Charles Supplee, who was heavily influenced (as was Charles Lolama—see my previous post) by master jeweler Pierre Touraine, who spent years among Southwestern (particularly Hopi) silversmiths. He taught European jewelry making techniques to many of the best silversmiths. That set in motion many of the European influenced designs seen in Indian jewelry today. The Supplees are considered among the top jewelers living today. Their work is highly collected.

| | Prince joins list of artists ticking off Sony BMG | | 2007-07-01 16:26:56 | | Princes new album Planet Earth will be given away free with a future edition of the UK newspaper The Mail. Record retailers across the country are beside themselves, and Sony BMG has pulled out of the distribution agreement. Now, Prince wrote and recorded the music, so it’s his to do with what he wants, right? Like I’ve been saying for a while, the record industry gets the biggest cut of any album, not the artist. If the Kelly Clarkson/Clive Davis debacle didn’t prove that the artist is a commodity like soap, or laundry detergent, than maybe this will. When a company has stockholders, their main focus is making money now. Not customer loyality, not sustainable sales, not art, I don’t think they really care about chart topping as long as the money rolls in and rolls in now. That’s why you see soooo many new stars get used up and discarded after a couple - or three albums. The new flavor of the month comes along, and they’re out. The industry | | By: Project-D | | |
| | Top Submission Artists of MMA Today | | 2007-06-29 03:55:00 | | 5. Jeff “The Snowman” Monson Jeff “The Snowman” Monson doesn’t really look like your everyday jiu-jitsu specialist. Monson is an American born out of Olympia, Washington and a full-blown Anarchist. Monson can almost pass as a power lifter and looks the type to chuck his opponents across the cage and pummel them into a bloody pulp. Well, that’s not the case, usually. Monson actually trains with American Top Team in Coconut Creek, FL and is a world class submission wrestler and an ADCC Submission Wrestling World Champion. Monson received the nickname “Snowman” at the 1999 ADCC World Championship. The Brazilian participants gave him the nickname after he came in as an unknown and swept through four Brazilians in a row to win his 88-98 kg weight class. Through the tournament Monson was described as a snowman because he seemed to only get better and better as he ran through his opponents, resembling a rolling snowball increasing in size.

| | | Con Artists Prey on Isolation, Trusting Nature and Retirement Money | | 2007-05-16 13:45:00 | | By CHLOE WHITE Scripps Howard News Service Bradenton,FloridaBeaulis and Helen Lively are a friendly, elderly couple in their 80s. They have ample financial assets and live comfortably in a nice house in Lenoir City, Tenn.,where they regularly attend church. And they were the perfect targets for a con artist who preys on seniors.The couple was scammed in 1998 by a man who claimed to be a minister. He was a well-groomed young man in his 30s who "seemed so sincere," Helen Lively said. "But he was nothing like he claimed to be."The man came to the couple's church in 1997 and said he was a minister who was new in town. He offered to help the church find a new building, and once he gained the congregation's trust, he took money that the church members had been saving for the new building.The real scam started before the con artist took the church's money, though. The con artist found a new target once he saw the Livelys' home, Lively said.The man made up a story about a pending workers' | | By: Elder Abuse | | |
