Turner Construction Company to Build Military Care Facility

Turner Construction Company recently broke ground on the new National Intrepid Cente fashion coats r of Excellence (NICoE) Satellite Center in Fort Belvoir, Virginia.

As part of a national campaign to construct up to nine identical facilities on major military bases across the United States, NICoE will be used to treat military service members with traumatic brain injuries and psychological health conditions. These satellite facilities will extend the care of the main NICoE facility at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, MD, a state of the art healing facility completed by Turner in June 2010.

"We all owe a great debt of gratitude to the leaders of the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund and the American people who so generously have donated funds to construct these facilities that are so needed by our service members," said Chris Jahrling, Vice President and General Manager of Turner's Federal Services Group. "We are immensely proud of the similar NICoE facility we constructed at Bethesda Naval Center and are excited to build another NICoE facility here at Fort Belvoir to better serve our wounded servicemen and servicewomen."

The new $11 million facility will include areas for psychiatric testing, chiropractic space, acupuncture, testing rooms, exam facilities, physical therapy areas, a sleep lab and multiple family areas for visiting and delivery of information. All nine facilities will be located on major bases to prevent separating our affected service members from their units, families, and other support groups while they undergo diagnostics and treatment.

"Traumatic Brain Injury and Post Traumatic Stress are invisible wounds that many of our men and women in uniform are suffering from as they return from service in Iraq and Afghanistan," said Arnold Fisher, Honorary Chairman of the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund. "It is our duty as Americans to care for these men and women who have worn the cloth of our nation in battle and sacrificed a piece of themselves for our freedom. We need to make every resource and method of treatment available to them to accelerate their recovery. These NICoE centers will accomplish this goal."

Celebrate Your Style This Holiday Season

Looking and dressing stylish for this festive time begins with getting organized. Look at your social schedule and plan each event ahead of time so that you will be prepared no matter what type of event you?€?re attending. Factor in each detail of your outfit, including accessories, shoes, jewelry, and handbag.

Perfect party dressing

- A black suit.
- Something in sequins.
- A little dress. It doesn?€?t necessarily have to be black as this season vibrant colors are a nice change from the traditional black dress. Don't be afraid to stand out in purple or red.
- High heels, evening sandals, and a clutch bag in a new metallic like pewter or bronze.
- All out glamour in a metallic frock.
- Add "bling" with a chunky gold necklace or a colorful bauble women's coats that adds texture to your outfit.
- Something red.

Here are some suggestions about what to wear for different types of holiday functions. Read your invitation and be aware of dress codes.

Casual - Dressy jeans with a sparkly top and a pair of the season?€?s hot shoes such as the Mary Jane platform.

Family party or open house - A cardigan sweater set with a skirt or pants will work by adding some glitz with your jewelry, metallic sandals or heels. Make a statement with jeans, a beaded top, or a short leather jacket. Note: If you are going to attend a religious service, before or after a party, then you really need to dress appropriately for that occasion.

A party at your own house where you are the hostess - Since you will be on your feet most of the time, look for comfort. A skirt or pants with a satin top and comfortable shoes such as a ballet flat.

The office party - Please remember, that an office party is really a festive business meeting and that certain etiquette must apply. Forgo any bare skin, even if that?€?s what you see all over TV and in the media. Never go braless to an office party, wear a halter top, or anything with a plunging neckline. Keep in mind that, even though you are there to have fun and it?€?s a party, you really are socializing with people you work with so make sure that you don?€?t dress in a way or do anything that night that you?€?d regret the next morning. Go for a classic look like, a satin dress with a sequin Bolero jacket.

After five cocktails and dinner - A tailored suit in satin or velvet or a black suit with a sequin top will look very trendy. Carry a small clutch in silver or gold.

Semi-formal affair - Mix classics like trousers, or a skirt in a rich fabric like velvet, with a white long sleeve blouse in silk or satin. A drop-dead gorgeous short strapless dress with earrings, shoes and a bag in gold or silver. Try a new combo like a deep, dark chocolate dress with bronze or cooper accessories, or a rich wine color that?€?s almost Merlot and pair that with silver or pewter accessories.

Black tie affair - All out glamour. A tuxedo suit or a gown.

Makeup tips for a holiday look

Holiday parties can cause havoc on your skin, so a good idea is to get a facial and a brow wax beforehand. Remember, great makeup can do only so much. It?€?s the skin that is the canvas that you are applying the color to. And make sure you adjust your skin care routine during the winter months when you are spending more time indoors, in artificial heat. It is very important to keep your skin well hydrated day and night.

Lipstick- A bright lipstick will energize your ensemble and immediately update your look. If you wear one of the new red lipsticks, make sure that you do a very muted or soft eye. If you are doing a very dramatic eye, then you want to keep the lips soft and neutral.

Eyeliner - The dramatic or smoky eye is really in, but not everyone can use a liquid eyeliner which requires practices and a steady hand. Best bet - use a kohl pencil which is easier to handle and will give you a better line. The best way to do a liner is to use the pencil and smudge along the lash line, using short strokes. Then you can take a small smudgy brush and just go over it. What you really want to create here is color not a definite line.

Some tricks for creating that smoky eye look:

No matter what color you use, it?€?s the gradation of color that is the most important thing to consider. The color should be the darkest by the lashes and then lighten up as you go up towards the brow bone. Go for violet or chocolate brown as opposed to a deep black, which can be too goth and can age a women?€?s face and skin.

A professional makeup artist trick that will help you avoid the "raccoon eye."

When you?€?re putting your eye shadow on, especially dark shades, apply some loose foundation powder under the eye before applying the shadow. This will catch all the fallout. This way, when you?€?re done, all you need to do is sweep away the powder with a brush.

Lashes - One thing every holiday face should have is great lashes. Use a thickening or lengthening mascara. For thin lashes, use defining mascara and use two coats. You can enhance any mascara by using a coat of eyelash primer under the mascara. This will add volume.

To complete your look, don't forget some fabulous perfume. One of the tricks that I use is, when I am getting dressed and still in my underwear, I spray the air and then walk into the mist. This way you don?€?t run the risk of getting the perfume on your clothes.

Follow these simple suggestions, and no matter where you go during this festive season, you will step out in style. Coco Chanel once said. "A girl should be two things, classy and fabulous."

The Rich and Ancient Heritage of Baza

Baza is the capital of the northern part of the Province of Granada, and festivals take place here that are unique in Spain, such as the famous Cascamorras. Archaeological remains tell us that man has lived here since prehistoric times. The well-known Dama de Baza was found in one of the Iberian burial sites in the area, and the Moorish baths are among the most complete in the country.

Baza is believed to be one of the oldest of all human settlements in Spain. The town and its surrounding area has a rich and varied architectural, historical and archaeological heritage, having been home to many different cultures down the centuries and back to pre-historic times. Its town centre was declared a Historic Centre in 2003, and in its narrow winding streets, especially around the walled medina area where the Alcazaba was built, we can see many remains of this rich and ancient past.

Approximately 20,000 people live in the municipality, situated to the north of the province of Granada. Its archaeological sites, such as the Iberian-Roman town of Basti and its ancient burial sites, in one of which was discovered the famous Dama de Baza, and its Moorish Baths all make this one of the most important archaeological and historical towns in Andalucia.

From the point of view of the environment, Baz fashion coats a offers a contrast of landscape which ranges from its mountain range, declared a Nature Park in 1989, to almost desert landscapes in the area known as the Altiplanicie, with an oasis of green between the two, which is La Vega. But the region is also known far and wide for its own particular type of domestic architecture, which is the house cave. Many of these ancient dwellings, which were used in the past by farmers, cattle breeders and miners, have now been adapted for rural tourism.

Baza has an important architectural, archaeological and historical heritage, the result of the many different peoples who lived in this area over the centuries, ah of whom left something of their culture behind them. Although little remains of the Alcazaba de Baza these days other than sections of wall and sorne towers, in its day it was an impregnable fortress. Its walls were built in three phases: the first in the 11th and 12th centuries, the second in the time of the Nazari occupation and the third by the Christians in the 16th century. It is located in the heart of the old town centre, dominated by the old medina.

The palacio de los Enriques is a magnificent example of a Renaissance palace designed in the style of an Italian country villa, and as such it is unique in all of Andalucia. It was ordered built by Enrique Enriquez and his wife Maria de Luna, aunt and uncle of the Catholic Monarchs. Work on the palace began in 1506, and since then it has been extensively restored. Inside can be seen sorne excellent examples of Mudejar armoury, all extensively decorated with Renaissance motifs.

The Real Posito was built in 1762, during the reign of Carlos III, and it still conserves its beautiful patio surrounded by galleries. On the main entrance we can see the royal coat-of-arms and that of the corregidor (the local chiefmagistrate) and the mayor. Inside, besides being a grain store, works of theatre are also held. This was also once the headquarters of the Economic Society of Friends of the Baza Country during the last quarter of the 18th century. The Moorish Baths in the town are particularly well preserved, dating back to the 13th century. They are a magnificent example of urban baths of the period, located beside the mosque in the old area of Marzuela (the present barrio of Santiago). A visit to the Moorish Baths is a must for any visitor to the town.

As one would expect, there are numerous churches in the town, the most outstanding being the Iglesia Mayor Colegiata. One should also see a monumental fountain situated close to the Puerta del Peso, on the royal Lorca road, which was designed in the form of lion and human heads. There are many local festivals throughout the year in the town, the most outstanding of them being the Festival of El Cascamorras. It was declared to be of National Tourist Interest in 2006, and begins every year on September 6, from six in the evening, kicking off what has become one of the most popular traditional festivals in the entire region.

Ocicat Cat and Kitten Information

The Ocicat is a medium to large cat that was developed to look like a wild jungle cat. In fact, it was named after the ocelot. They are well muscled and balanced with large almond shaped eyes and a tight, short coat. The official breed standard recognizes four basic color points, tawny, chocolate, blue and cinnamon.

Every eye color is recognized with the exception of blue. Unofficially, the colors vary widely. The most distinctive characteristic of the Ocicat are the spots. Ocicats are often described as affectionate, people oriented, trustworthy, outgoing, dog like and athletic. Ocicats are known to take well to training, even learning simple commands.

History

The Ocicat was developed in 1964 by crossing the Abyssinian, American Shorthair and Siamese. Credit for developing the breed is given to Virginia Daly, a breeder from Berkley, Michigan. The Cat Fanciers Association accepted the breed for registration in 1966 and accepted the breed for championship status in 1987.

The ancestor of all domestic cats is the African Wildcat, the genus Felis Lybica. This genus is comprised of smaller cats. Cats are thought to have been domesticated with the advent of farming and the storage of grain. The grain attracted rats and other vermin which naturally attracted wild cats. As time evolved, certain of these cats were domesticated for the mutual benefit of both cat and man. The African Wildcat has certain features which is obvious in the housecat of today.

Health

Cats who reside in the house should generally visit the veterinarian yearly, unless health problems are evident. Cats who enjoy the outdoors may need to see the vet as many as four times a year. When you take your cat to the vet, be sure to bring along a fresh stool sample so the vet can do a fecal exam to check for internal parasites such as tapeworm, round worm, whip worms and hook worms. The vet will also check for external parasites such as fleas, ticks and ear mites.

Any vet check should include a dental examination and a cleaning if necessary. Cats who are eight years of age or older are considered geriatric and additional blood and urine tests may be necessary to screen for any health problems. At about six months of age, the kitten should also be examined for sexual maturity and decisions about birth control should be made.
