Corruption, Protest and Discontent with Haitian 2010 Elections

The country of Haiti has been the focus of world news. The  international community is  discontent about the $28 million dollars invested in the November 28,2010 Haitian election. An election that was supposed to run smoothly, but instead is said to be corrupted and filled with confusion.Two candidates are currently left to battle head to head for the final goal of being Haiti's new President. The cries of the people are over looked and the anger quickly turns into violence when Michel"Sweet Mickey" Martelly was nominated out of the final round of the election.The end result being first lady Mirlande Manigat and prefered candidate of previous president Renee Preval, Jude Celestin reaching for success.
Haiti is constantly being struck by devastations. The most destructive was the January 12, 2010 earthquake that left an estimated 230,000 dead and over one million people homeless. The 2010 election brought a certain hope to the people that change was under way. A change that was supposed to be a positive one for the Haitian people. As lines formed in the early a.m. of Novemeber 28,2010, anxious Haitian citizens waited as voting polls opened.Voters approached the voting table only to be turned away for not being registered at the right polls. Tension throughout the country began to rise as voting polls began to report the same confusing scenario.Thousands of people were rejected at the voting polls,including well known artist Wyclef Jean. As the day went on a solution was never found and the voice of thousands were neglected. For the people of Haiti a slap in the face by Mother Nature is road block to overcome, but a slap in the face by mankind was inexcusable. This action was the cause of the protest in the street and chaos that continue to hit the capital of Haiti.
U.S. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton stated on Monday that patience is running out on this election deadlock. The current President, Rene Preval once again asked for the help of the international community with a vote recount. Michel Martelly who still has not given up on his hope of becoming the new Haitian president oppose the recount calling it a "trap" and he is supported by current presidential running Mirlande Manigat. Both of them worried that a recount will put Rene Preval favorite, Jude Celestin in the presidential seat. A choice that is rejected by many in the Haitian community.

Time is running out for this country as the anniversary of the January 12th earthquake is approaching. Change is inevitable, but  will it be the change that the people of Haiti is hoping for.A change that will make or break the country of Haiti

The Makeup beyond Makeups

I have always been a fan of Mac Cosmetics. As an African American woman it is hard to find make-up that fits your tone perfectly.With Mac Cosmetics the perfect match is not a difficult task and shopping Mac Cosmetics is is fun and a learning event.

My mother and I decided to shop my favorite department store Macy's Pembroke Lakes. With the intentions of buying a foundation we walked through the doors and straight to the mac department. There, I met Sharon Isse,retain Mgr/Make-up Artist. Her persona was great and her energy was positive,not to mention the fact her makeup looked AWESOME!!! I explained to her that I needed to replace my studio stick foundation. "Unfortunately that foundation is discontinued" she answered. That statement turned a smile to a frown,instantly. "But sit here and let me test the new line on you" she replied. I was smiling from cheek to cheek again.

I sat in front of the mirror as she started to work her magic on one side of my face. She began by moisturizing my skin with the moisturizer. I loved it, My skin felt soft and silky, not heavy at all. Following the moisturizer she applied the the Pro Long wear Concealer and mixed together with the Pro Long wear SPF Foundation. Mixing the two she told me , was the key to getting a natural finished looked. The transformation of one side of my face with just the basics impressed me. Scharon continued to the other side of my face with just the basics and her doing that was reminder to me why Mac Cosmetics is most popular cosmetic throughout the nation. Schraon finalized the basics with Prep+Prime finished powder once again mixed with the loosed powder in my skin tone. I was happy with the final look. The look was a natural day look and she added a touch of color with the Raizin, Mac blush ; the Mahogany ,Mac lip liner and the Viva Glam lipstick. This natural look was great for a day at the office or even perfect in front of the camera for a news broadcaster.

I will always be impressed with Mac Cosmetics. It is a diverse cosmetic line for every type of skin. Check our maccosmetic.com or visit Scharon @ Macy's @Pembroke Lakes .

Oh, By the way I went to the Macy's Mac counter for one foundation and walked out with a bag
full of Mac Cosmetics.(They get me very time :), lol)
