Damien & Nadia live in London (although Damien is originally from France) so they chose to have their engagement session in the UKs capital. Haven't this pair got that European chic feel? Fabulous fashion indeed.
Tattooed & Quiffed
Sallie & Jeremy's simple engagements really show them off at their best! The lack of complication in these images really make the pair stand out as the unique and totally rad couple that they are…and I am loving Sallie's quiff!
Go on Then, Ask me Anything…
On a morning of procrastination (or could it have been an evening? I loose track) I decided to give this formspring thing a go. If you haven't heard of it, it's basically a new social networking site where you sign up and randoms (or in my case my lovely readers and fans) can ask me anything! I'm usually aghast at such self indulgence but I've actually really loved answering your burning questions – whether they be about Rock n Roll Bride, my personal life (oh yes), the potential of babies (arrgh!), blogging or about having pink hair! I
've loved the questions so much in fact that I wanted to share some of my favourites here. If you want to 'Ask Me Anything' then shoot on over to formspring and question away, I will try and answer as many as I can. and if you like I'll do another addition of my favourite questions again soon. So, what do ya wanna know?
♥ A lot of people seemed fascinated by my fuchsia locks – which is weird to me as having pink hair seems positively normal to me now. However, I aim to please…
How long have you been coloring your hair pink?
I first dyed my hair when I left school at 16 and went to college. I dabbled with a number of colours between then about 18 but I was always pink at heart and went back pink after our wedding in April 2008.
What color is your natural hair color
Very dark brown, almost black. You can see it here in our wedding photographs
A Little Help From My Friends
I was already brimming over with excitment to feature this wedding by one of my newest Scottish photographic discoveries Mirrorbox Photography, but then I found out that this blue dress bride was actually one half of the talented team. A true Rock n Roll photographer if ever I've seen one – she only even went and had her own Rock n Roll wedding!
"Being a wedding photographer myself I knew how important the photos were going to be at my wedding. I am one half of Mirrorbox Photography. I worried about asking my business partner Sequoia to take the photos as she was also going to be a guest at the wedding but I really didn't want anyone else to shoot it. She was the only wedding photographer I knew would take the amazing photos I wanted and thankfully she happily agreed.
Asking friends to get involved became a bit of a theme to our wedding. In fact when we put together our guest list each person had a skill we could utilise next to their name. This was not only a way to cut costs dramatically but it was also a great way to get people involved. We knew that we wanted our wedding day to be very personal to us and to all our closest friends and family that would be there.
My husband and I with the help of our creative friends designed and made everything from rings to invites to flowers, we even made our own champagne! I designed my own dress, which I then had made at Che Camille in Glasgow; an independent design studio featuring local artist's work. My headpiece was made by Williams Chambers Millinery. The bridesmaids also designed their own dresses.
I didn't want Sequoia to be working all night so I utilised a small room off the main hall to our venue and turned it into a self portrait photo booth, setting up lights and a camera with a trigger release. This proved to be great fun on the night and even more fun looking through the results after. This was also another great way to get people involved."
Carrie's Jean Harlow Inspired Bridals
Carrie's wedding day portraits make me so excited I could scream. Isn't she just the most gorgeous Rock n Roll chick ever? "My entire ensemble was inspired by old Hollywood glamor and 1930's black & white films, very Jean Harlow" Carrie told me "My hair and make-up was done by me and I kept it very straight, classic and the make-up reminiscent of the silent era. I grew up watching nothing but silent films, old horror movies and classic film noir. I wanted to appear timeless and not dated, I think I achieved my vision and surpassed even my own expectations."
Carrie's gorgeous ruffled dress came from "The Dresser" in downtown Fullerton and was by Pattis, the style was called "Diore". "Originally it was $1850, but I got it on sale for a trunk show promo for 15% off. The dress was made from scratch in Italy. At the time I was shopping for the dress, I had a shaved head. The sales lady then she pulled the dress for me said "The girl with the blonde shaved head and tattoos would look perfect in this dress" the second I tried it on…I knew it was the one." She chose a veil from www.birdcageveils.com which cost her just $59 and her shoes came from "The Dresser" too. The bracelet she wore was an heirloom of her husband's great grandmother and was actually originally a necklace. The gorgeous brooches on the bouquets (supplied by Kari Strand at Lake Elsinore Florist) were from Macy's and old cost about $8 each (reduced from $30!) The bridesmaids also wore dresses from Macy's.
Under the Spotlight – Shan's Photography
Credit: Rosie Parsons
I've got yet another amazing new photographer to share with you today. Shan from Shan's Photography is making some serious waves throughout the UK's wedding market. Based in the Isle of Man, Shan likes nothing better than shooting beautiful but off-the-wall weddings all over the country (and beyond) so she's certainly one to watch for 2010. Alrighty then – over to the good stuff…
Who are you and what do you do?
I am Shan Fisher, a photographer. I specialise in wedding photography – I'm really passionate about photography and I absolutely love my job! I founded Shan's Photography in June 2007.
Where are you based and what cities/countries are you available to work in?
The beautiful Isle of Man is my base, central to the UK. Although I am a pretty new photographer, I have already had great experiences shooting a wedding in Germany and various parts of the UK. I'm happy to travel all over the country and abroad for photography work.

Summer of LeBron, Autumn of Duke?
The Summer of LeBron just concluded with King James leading the U.S. men's basketball team to gold in London. With Adam Thompson and Geoff Foster out, Ben Cohen makes it a three-man weave and wonders how "The Decision" would be viewed if it followed a dominating Olympic performance.
Meanwhile, in case you were still in the Olympic bubble, you might have missed last weekend's PGA Championship. Tiger Woods had a piece of the 36-hole lead, but after rounds of 74 and 72, he finished 11 strokes behind Rory McIlroy. It's been 18 majors since Tiger last won one, and I argue that betting on Tiger may be the worst bet in sports.
After the Indiana University Marching Hundred pays a visit during halftime, I explain why I dislike all the history and nostalgia involved in college sports. Plus, Ben makes a bold prediction about Duke's football team and Darren Everson gets fired up because we talk a little bit about college-football recruiting and the Michigan vs. Ohio State rivalry.

Women's Volleyball
Oct. 6, 2012
MALIBU, Calif. - Four different Toreros recorded double-digit kills to help the 15th-ranked University of San Diego women's volleyball team remain perfect in West Coast Conference play, as the Toreros picked up a thrilling 3-1 win over No. 23 Pepperdine University Saturday afternoon at the Firestone Fieldhouse.
With the 28-26, 25-22, 22-25, 25-20 win, the Toreros improve to 14-2 overall, move to 5-0 WCC and have now extended their winning streak to nine. With the loss, the Waves fall to 11-7 overall, and 1-4 in the WCC.
Chloe Ferrari led the team's offense, as the All-American recorded 16 kills, on 29 swings, while only committing one error to hit for a .518 clip. Sandra Lozic wasn't far behind, as she recorded 15 kills, while Carrie Baird recorded 14 kills and Katie Hoekman recorded 11 kills. Rachel Alvey recorded a season-high 60 assists in helping steer the USD offense to a .305 team attack percentage, and Kandiss Anderson led the team's defense as she had 28 digs.
In the first set, a Pepperdine attack error ignited a 7-2 San Diego run that was bookended on a Lozic kill, to give San Diego the early momentum. The Waves then regrouped and a Katie Messing kill jump started a 13-8 Pepperdine run that gave the home team a 15-13 edge and the momentum. A Ferrari kill then sparked a 5-2 USD run to give the Toreros back the lead at 18-17. The two teams then sea sawed back and forth a bit until USD took set point at 24-22 on a Alaysia Brown kill. But the Waves managed to go on a 3-0 run to take set point themselves. The two teams then went back and forth with each having set-point a few more times until a Brown and Hoekman block gave the Toreros the 28-26 win.
In the second set, it was a close nit battle in the early going. Then with the score knotted at 12-all, a Pepperdine attack error jump started a 4-0 USD run that was capped on a Lozic kill to give the Toreros a 16-12 lead and all the momentum. This four-point edge proved to be too much for the Waves to overcome, as USD held on to claim a 25-22 win, to go up in the match two-sets-to-none.
In the third set, the Waves grabbed the early momentum, as they raced out to a 6-3 lead. USD managed to stay close to the Waves throughout this set, and came to within two on a few occasions. But in the end, Pepperdine was able to avoid the sweep and force a fourth set with a 25-22 win.
In the fourth and final set, San Diego went right to work, as a Ferrari kill ignited a 4-2 run right out of the gates to give USD the early momentum. The Waves however, would then manage to tie things up at 4-all, and managed to keep things close for the next several volleys. Then with the score tied at 7-all, a Ferrari kill sparked a 6-2 San Diego run to give USD back the momentum and a 13-9 lead. The Waves would manage to come to within a few points on a couple of occasions, but USD would not surrender the lead, as they went on to claim set four by a final of 25-20.
The Toreros will return to action on Thursday as they return home to host Gonzaga University in a 7 p.m. WCC match inside the friendly confines of the Jenny Craig Pavilion.

From The Guardian:
James Joyce's Ulysses has topped poll after poll to be named the greatest novel of the 20th century, but according to Paulo Coelho, the book is "a twit". [. . .]
Writers go wrong, according to Coelho, when they focus on form, not content. "Today writers want to impress other writers," he told the paper. "One of the books that caused great harm was James Joyce's Ulysses, which is pure style. There is nothing there. Stripped down, Ulysses is a twit."
Here are just a few of the things that are wrong with these statements:
1) I'm willing to go out on a limb here and claim that Ulysses has had, oh, approximately 0% impact on the writing of the vast majority of today's popular/influential English writers—J-Franz, Richard Ford, 90% of MFA graduates, most all Oprah book club authors, etc. etc.
2) Can a book even be a "twit"? That's confusing. The other day I was on a rant that NBC should get crabs, but even I realized the absurdity of that statement. Hey, Paulo—Ulysses is a book. It is fiction. It is not a living breathing thing.
3) And "twit"??? Who even says that?
4) THIS sort of "I APPEAL TO EVERYONE" crap is what I think is ruining contemporary literature.
Speaking to Brazilian newspaper Folha de S Paulo, Coelho said the reason for his own popularity was that he is "a modern writer, despite what the critics say". This doesn't mean his books are experimental, he added – rather, "I'm modern because I make the difficult seem easy, and so I can communicate with the whole world."
Nothing like a bit of stupid to get me back into the swing of this blogging thing . . . .

Suicide terror & Shahada
Success of Shahada promotion
Parents celebrate children's death
Creating a supportive social environment for terrorists has been a critical factor in the Palestinian Authority's successful promotion of suicide terrorism. To this end, PA policy has been to honor terrorists as Shahids (Martyrs for Allah), and to teach Palestinian mothers to celebrate when their children die as terrorist Shahids. Categorizing these dead terrorists as Shahids grants them the highest honor a Muslim can achieve, and is therefore cause for a mother to celebrate, according to this PA teaching.
An example of that happiness and celebration can be seen in Um Nidal, mother of a suicide terrorist:
Um Nidal is filmed with her son, Muhammad, who is armed and ready to carry out a terror attack:
"By Allah, today is the best day of my life. I feel that our Lord is pleased with me, because I am offering something [my son] for Him. I wish to sacrifice more [sons] for Allah's forgiveness, and for the flag [of Islam], 'There is no god but Allah', to fly over Palestine.... It's true that there's nothing more precious than children, but for the sake of Allah – what is precious becomes cheap."

Long moments passed, and then she found his cell phone in his room. He left the cell phone so that they would not prevent him from doing what he planned... The mother understood that Ahmad was in danger at that moment, but the definite news had not yet reached her, as the media had [only] reported that an operation (i.e., terror attack) took place near Damascus Gate in occupied Jerusalem, and that one or more Martyrs died in the operation. The uncertain news, the fact that a lot of time had passed without knowing what happened, the stream of news about the death of young people from the town… and his last text message – all of these caused Um Ismail to feel what she did not want to be true, not at that moment, and not later - Ahmad died as a Martyr! Indeed, the news of Ahmad's death as a Martyr arrived. At the same moment the mother's heart was relieved and she said: 'Praise Allah.' Everyone in the village rushed to the home of the Martyr's family, and did not know whether to console [the family] over his death as a Martyr or express pride in his death in an operation of this type."

"Despite the 'hard blow' Israel gave Qabatiya by imposing a curfew on it for four days, [carrying out] arrests, demolishing homes, and revoking work permits, in what seems like an attempt to teach them a 'lesson,' it looks like it has failed to dampen the spirit of resistance in the town. This small town, which has 25,000 residents and is located on the hills in the north of the West Bank, is proud of a long history of struggle. Mayor Mahmoud Kmeil emphasized: 'We have resisted all of the occupiers here,' noting the British Mandate in Palestine, the Ottoman empire, and the Israeli occupation today. Today, he is organizing a visit of officials with the families of nine young people from Qabatiya who have died as Martyrs (
) since October while attacking Israelis. The last attack was on Feb. 3 [2016], when three young people from important families in the town killed Israeli policewoman Hadar Cohen, 19, at the entrance to the Old City of Jerusalem.

Terrorist stabber Ahmad Kawazbeh's father:
"Ahmad was an excellent high school student. Two days before he died as a Martyr (
), he said something to us that we did not understand. We said to him 'You need to study so you will bring us a high [grade point] average, and we want a report card (
- the same as the word for martyrdom) which will make us proud.' He said 'Father, I will bring you
(Martyrdom) that will make you very proud.' It never occurred to us that he meant this type of
(i.e., Martyrdom and not report card). Praise Allah, this is a better
than any report card,
for Allah."
Immediately after the father's words, the PA TV host says that the "Martyr" wanted to fulfill his dream of excelling in the matriculation exams, however "the muzzle of the occupier's rifle was greater than his dream."

If they argue with you about my body, do not agree to any bargaining, and do not give in to any blackmail in order to receive it."' He was about to cry again, and continued: 'It appears that she prepared herself for any possibility, and indeed the Israeli intelligence service summoned me to the center of Hawara and asked me not to incite, as I am the Imam of a mosque, and to work to calm the spirits. 'We do not want revenge' – that is what they asked of me in one word. In short, they are even afraid of our pain and silence. I do not have the shadow of a doubt that I cannot prevent anyone from resisting or dying as a Martyr, as I was not able to prevent my daughter from carrying out her religious and moral obligation to go out against this occupier, which leaves us no air to breathe.

The ACLU wholeheartedly believes that we can be safe and free.

Skill Level Intermediate
In the last movie we talked about Unicode and learned how Unicode works and some of the problems that it presents when working with regular expressions. One issue we didn't address was the issue of how to use the wildcard character with Unicode. Remember that the single-dot wildcard character matches only one character. So we're dealing with multibyte characters that actually are two characters side by side, well, then our wildcard won't work anymore. There are a couple of different solutions that one could use for this. The first and probably simplest one is just \X. You'll remember that Perl and PHP use a lowercase x for Unicode instead of the u. Well, then they use the \X for the wildcard. That matches any single character, regardless of how it's been encoded.
It will also always match line breaks as well. That's the same thing as when we were using the dot but using it with that s option that would allow dot matches all. That's always built into the \X option, so just make note of that. So for example if we had caf\X that matches both cafe with the accent and cafe without the accent. It handles both of those cases. Pretty slick, huh? One problem with it is the support. It's only supported in Perl and PHP at the moment.
I'd love to see more language to start supporting it because I think it's a really useful option to have, but right now Perl and PHP are the only ones you can use that. However, there is another set of options that we can use that is supported by more languages, not quite as flexible as this, but we can use properties--that is the Unicode property. We can search for property using \p and then, in curly braces, the property that we want to look for that matches all characters that have that property. So for example, \p and then in curly braces Mark with the capital M or we can just abbreviate with just the capital M. That matches any mark such as accents--not the letter itself, just the mark.
If we want a letter, we could use Letter inside those curly braces or a capital L, and that would match any letter. Let's take a look at what those abbreviations are, so you can have them. So the Unicode property for Letter or just L, Mark or just M, whitespace operator would be capital Z, any symbol would be capital S, number would be capital N, punctuation for capital P and other--something that's not one of those other things--would be a capital C. So if you use any of these, this will allow you to find those Unicode characters that have this property. So that really help you out, because now we can look for things in Unicode which are a letter followed by a mark.
We also can do it in another way. We can use the not-property identifier. So that's a \P followed by the property, and that matches any characters that do not have a property. So for example, with cafe, we can look for anything that is not a mark, such as a letter E, followed immediately by anything that is a mark. So that takes care of the case when we have E followed by an accent, regardless of which way the accent might face or whether it's an a with an accent, this basically says find any accented character.
Now that's not exactly identical to the \X, but you can see how you can use it to still work around these problems with Unicode and find what you're looking for. The support for this is a little bit broader. For both lowercase p and capital P, Java, .NET, Perl, PHP, and Ruby support those, so Perl and PHP support all three of these methods-- the X, lowercase p, and capital P. Java, .NET, and Ruby just support these properties. JavaScript and Python and old UNIX tools, they don't support any of them. There is no workaround for any of those--at least at the moment.
They don't support either the X or the Ps. Now since we're using a JavaScript editor to test, that's going to leave us a little high and dry. We can't really try these out. But I think it's simple enough that you get the idea, and you see how you can apply them once you understand how Unicode works. The most important part of this whole discussion about Unicode is just for you to understand that all characters are not encoded the same way and that it does create some problems for regular expression engines that we need to take account of when we're writing our regular expressions.

Sykes: If I Beat Adrien Broner, I'll Become a Superstar!
By Edward Chaykovsky
British boxer Gary Sykes (20-2, 5KOs) is a heavy underdog as continues to train for his dream fight, a shot at WBO super featherweight champion Adrien Broner (23-0, 19KOs) on May 19th at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. The fight will be televised on HBO as the co-feature to the rematch Lamont Peterson-Amir Khan junior welterweight rematch.
28-year-old Sykes, who suffered two career defeats to countryman Gary Buckland, views Broner, 22-years-old, as his big opportunity to become a superstar.
"I am thrilled at this opportunity, it is a dream come true. I know I'm a big, big underdog and I would love to see the odds against me winning but I think I've earned this chance and I deserve to be in there with him. I have never gone into the ring thinking I'm going to lose and I never will. Broner is a genuine world champion and it's Las Vegas. I'm going to enjoy it but you have got to be in it to win it," Sykes told Batley and Birstall News.
"I've been told if I beat him, I will automatically become a superstar. People have said I'm going to get slaughtered but I'm realizing the dream of every young boxer by fighting in Vegas against the best in the world and not many can say they have done that."

Panama Canal To Be Run As Business After Handover
Monday, October 11, 1999
The Panama Canal will be run as a competitive business for the benefit of the Panamanian people after it reverts to national control at
year's end
, the waterway's administrator said. "The Canal was run before on a break-even concept, like a public utility," Panama Canal Commission (PCC) administrator Alberto Aleman Zubieta told a lunch for members of the American Chamber of Commerce. "But it will be run on the corporate concept of profitability ... for the 2.7 million Panamanians who will be its owners." Panama will become owner and operator of the canal at noon on Dec. 31, when the U.S. hands over the waterway as agreed in a 1977 treaty. To ensure its competitiveness into the
21st century
, $1 billion is being spent on overhauling the 50 mile (80 km) waterway, Zubieta said, adding that the improvements will raise the canal's operating capacity by 20 percent. The centerpiece of the overhaul, a $232 million program to widen the canal's narrowest point - the nine-mile (14 km) long Gaillard Cut - to 630 ft. (192 m) from 500 ft. (152 m), will be completed in 2002, 10 years ahead of schedule. The upgrade will allow 24-hour navigation by
Panamax vessels
- ships built to the maximum specifications of the waterway's 1,000 ft (310-m) by 110 ft (34-m) locks - in both directions, he said. A further $180 million investment in new towing locomotives and track at the waterway's three sets of locks, together with a $33 million investment in new tugboats, will raise the number of daily ship transits to a "sustainable maximum" of 42, up from the current 37. The recently installed Enhanced
Vessel Tracking Management
System (EVTMS), which provides real-time locations for every vessel in the canal, would increase safety for canal users into the next century, Zubieta said. Zubieta expressed confidence in the canal's Panamanian "highly trained" workforce, which will take over full running of the waterway at noon on Dec. 31. At the start of October, Panamanians comprised 97 percent of the canal's 9,000 employees, he said, up four percent in 1998. One of the challenges that the new administration faces will be to take care of the canal's watershed, Zubieta said. The rainforest-covered basin, which supplies the canal with the water vital to its operation, has been protected from logging and settler encroachment by the U.S. military control of the Canal Zone - a 10-mile (16 km) security strip running the length of the canal - since it opened in 1914. The PCC is scheduled to meet for the last time in its 85- year history in Washington from Oct. 13 to 15 to present accounts for fiscal 1999, the last complete financial year under U.S. control. The Panama Canal Authority, as the administration will be called under Panamanian control, will take control at year's end. During 1998, more than 13,000 ships passed through the canal, generating $545 million in revenue.

Great price and perfect location. Everyone was very helpful and friendly. We loved the city and had a wonderful stay at this apartment.
spacious, nice, good location, very good value for money
geräumig, schön, gute lage, sehr gutes preis leistungsverhältnis
The apartment was very nice, clean and it had everything what was needed including iron :) It is very calm although it is located in very city centre of Budapest. We definately would like to come back there when staying in Budapest again.
Perfectly centrally located apartment, a few steps to the Vaci utca, next to the subway and many buses on the doorstep. We could already by 10 clock (instead of the normal by 14 clock) refer the apartment, to communicate with the landlord or his staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Everything went to our satisfaction and we can recommend the apartment. Large rooms and two bathrooms solved a generosity that promise the photos. Only downside the toilet Mini, which does not quite fit the other apartment and could cause human from 1.85m some claustrophobia.
Perfekt zentral gelegenes Apartment, nur wenige Schritte zur Vaci Utca, direkt an der UBahn und mit vielen Bussen vor der Haustür. Wir konnten bereits um 10 Uhr (statt regulär um 14 Uhr) die Wohnung beziehen, die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter bzw. seinen Angestellten war freundlich und kompetent. Alles verlief zu unserer Zufriedenheit und wir können das Apartment weiter empfehlen. Große Räume und zwei Bäder lösten die Großzügigkeit ein, die die Fotos versprechen. Einziger Wermutstropfen die Minitoilette, die so gar nicht zur sonstigen Wohnung passte und bei Menschen ab 1,85 m ein gewisses klaustrophobisches Gefühl hervorrufen könnte.
Excellent! All very clean and very nice hosts. Very well located, 10 minutes from downtown. We have been delighted
Excelente! Todo muy limpio y los anfitriones muy agradables. Muy bien localizado, a 10 minutos del centro. Hemos estado encantados
The apartment in Budapest is very centrally located and is highly recommended, clean and you feel really comfortable. Of course, you realize that it is located at a central location in a major city, but the city can be quickly and easily explored. The caretaker was very helpful and friendly and so everything went well. Again, a great option for the next trip to Budapest.
Die Wohnung in Budapest liegt sehr zentral und ist absolut empfehlenswert, sauber und man fühlt sich richtig wohl. Natürlich merkt man, dass man sich an zentraler Lage in einer Metropole befindet, dafür kann die Stadt rasch und bequem erkundet werden. Der Hausmeister war sehr behilflich und freundlich und so klappte alles bestens. Ist wiederum eine super Option für den nächsten Trip nach Budapest.
The floor is ideal. Central and as described. As for the very helpful and attentive host. Highly recommended. All perfect
El piso es ideal. Céntrico y tal y como se describe. En cuanto al anfitrión muy servicial y atento. Muy recomendable. Todo perfecto
The moment we walked in the door "WOW" what a great apartment.
This apartment is really good,roomy ,comfortable and the best location right in the centre of town ( everything is in easy walking distance ). Super market in same building at ground level.
Sitting on the balcony having a drink was so good , great view.
Apartment was spotlessly clean,comfortable beds, excellent security,Lift .Only thing needed was a toaster.
We loved staying here and would love to stay again.
Highly recommended.
Fantastic location near cafes, bars, supermarket, and the river. Spotlessly clean, spacious apartment in a setting with lots of character. Short walk to metro and not too far to the square to get Hop on Hop off buses. Wonderful city too - so much to see!
We had a wonderful time in Budapest and we loved our location. It was so close to the Central Market that I walked every morning to get food for breakfast. The Chain bridge was just a short walk and on the first day we enjoyed walking up to the Castle. The metro is right outside the door too so you can get everywhere.
Michael arranged for a driver to pick us up and take us back to the airport which worked out great. They were waiting for us both times. Michael also allowed us to check in early for a small fee so that we could relax after our long flight.
The apartment was great and had everything we needed. Loved it!
