THE LEFT LANE
Stamp arrives Friday
Advertiser Staff and News Services
Oops! A wire-service story in this space last Friday gave the wrong date for release of the U.S. Postal Service's new Purple Heart stamp. It will be issued beginning this Friday.
(The post offices will be closed today, a federal holiday.)
Gen. George Washington created the Purple Heart to honor soldiers under his command.
As the oldest American military decoration, the Purple Heart now will be commemorated with a 37-cent U.S. stamp.
The medal is awarded to members of the military wounded or killed in action.
Makeup made easy

For a light swath of color, use the pencil dry, blending with the sponge tip. To add drama or create an eyeliner effect, put a tiny drop of water on the sponge applicator and run it over the eyelid. The method offers a lot of control. And it won't creep on oily skin.
Colors include neutrals and soft pastels (lavender, baby blue, seafoam green). Aqua-Liners cost $20 and are available at Sephora in Ala Moana Center, and are to be offered on sephora.com and bodyandsoul.com.
