Time2 launch Clan - a new generation of easy to use, affordable smart home and security devices
The launch will be celebrated with a 25% discount for customers purchasing on the day, and with giveaways and prizes throughout the day on Facebook, Twitter and the Time2 website.
Time2 CEO Kam Kothia said: "Our launch of Clan enables us to offer the broad sweep of UK households a newer, easier way to protect their homes and enrich their lifestyles, simply and affordably, with truly excellent products. The intelligent 21st century home doesn't have to be complicated or expensive."
The first Clan products focus on home protection and monitoring: small, lightweight but technically advanced remote control cameras, priced from just £39.99 with no ongoing subscriptions, plus remote control dimmable LED light bulbs and a remote control mains socket.
As an example of the smart home in action, a Clan camera means that someone on holiday, or away for whatever reason, can monitor the inside or outside of their home, in real time from anywhere in the world, enjoying live, high definition video images and sound straight to their smartphone or tablet. The camera has automatic night vision when it gets dark and the ability to record and playback up to three weeks of footage. Images sent over the internet are encrypted for privacy.
The user can be alerted on their smartphone if there's any movement or sound and then play back the footage to see what caused the alert. And because Clan devices work together, Clan could also use the alert to automatically turn on lights or a radio in the home, making an empty place seem occupied. Indeed, lights and other appliances can easily be set to turn on and off, or dimmer or brighter, at different times, or under varying conditions, to create a realistic lived-in effect – all managed from a single app.
In early 2019 Time2 will extend the range, adding many more home security devices as well as remote control light switches and a remote control central heating thermostat, with more to follow. Everything will work together and be controllable from anywhere, at home or far away. Asking Alexa to dim the lights, check the heating or switch on the electric blanket will be a breeze with Alexa and Clan working together.
Easy installation of devices is a key feature for Clan. Because they communicate wirelessly, using the home wifi, they can be placed almost anywhere without disruption or DIY, and there's little or no manual configuration needed to get them working online. However, for those who want it, Clan also offers a sophisticated array of scheduling and home automation tools.
Kam Kothia continued: "Our aim is to offer the largest range of life enhancing, smart home products, easy to set up and use, working seamlessly with each other, compatible with Alexa and Google Home and backed by Time2's unrivalled UK-based customer support."
The Clan app, Clan at Home, is available now to download for free from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

Every night I put Emory to bed. Often, she does her best to delay my efforts. Sometimes this comes in the form of not cooperating with me. Usually though, she does her best to ask questions and guilt me into reading to her.
A few months ago, she noticed her baby monitor. She became very curious about what it was. It is kind of odd looking and is noticeably out of place. The first time she asked about it I simply told her it was the baby monitor and it allowed us to know that she was ok. That was good enough for her, at the time. The next time, she needed more details. I told her that the monitor allowed us to see her sleeping and know that she was ok, and that was enough information to satisfy her for the moment.
However, about a month or so ago, in a desperate attempt to hold off bed time she needed all the details that could be known about this strange looking thing in her room. I like the fact that she is curious and wants to learn, so within reason I try to give in to these attempts to stall. I showed her the monitor screen so that she could see her bed. I told her that the monitor was a camera with a microphone in it. It allowed us to see and hear her at night so that we could know that she was safe and hear her when she needed us. I told her that if she needed us, all she had to do was look right at the monitor and call for help. We would be able to see her and hear her, and then we would come.
The next morning, I hear her calmly say "Daddy, Daddy, Daddy." I go to get her out of bed and she is sitting up looking at the door. In a very excited manner she said; "I just looked up and said Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, and you just came right through the door!" A little confused by her exuberance, I said "What baby?" Emory looked at me and calmly said; "I just looked up and said Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, and you saw me and you just came right through that door."
Isn't that a lot like prayer. I think we often get caught with a little bit of doubt. Some feel that when we call out in prayer, we are really calling out to an empty room. Or maybe that we are calling out to a God that isn't really listening or doesn't want to enter the room and help out. The truth is, when we call out in prayer we are calling out to a Daddy that can see us and He wants to come right through the door.
This week we are going to study prayer. We have great curriculum inspired by the movie War Room. We have great video lessons that will expose us to some great ideas. We will have great fellowship. But, the first we must begin to wrap our mind around what my daughter so firmly believed that morning. We have a Daddy who wants us to look up and call out when we need Him, and if we do He will come right through the door.
Jesus told his disciples to pray like this: "Our Father in heaven". We have a Father in heaven who listens when we pray.

We have no financial interest in tobacco, of any sort, at the moment, though we're not making any promise on 'forever' in where this economy looks to be going with its war and glory errors -- again. But we see how off the mark the Health ESTABLISHMENT is in the US and can't resist the idea that Columbo -- and his mentees -- would benefit if he'd find this evidence -- long ago.
When I saw the wikipedia data on tobacco curing and what a difference it makes to do it -- the usual RJReynolds-crooks' dry heat way versus the Swedish steam heat method -- and the way that this news about a better way of doing things was being squashed here, I wondered if Columbo -- or Columbos -- were still hooked on the nicotine because this snus -- alternate tobacco thrill -- would serve all our Columbos and other smokers better...
Ever heard of "Snus"?? It's Swedish, it's saves Swedish nicotine users from the damages of tobacco use without difficult adoption hassles and it's been well tested ENOUGH to know this much, why is it so hard to believe that such a thing exists? Patently because there's a strange paucity of mainstream broadcasting of this option.
Know anyone else that smokes? or chews tobacco -- chewing at least protects those around the user from second hand inhalation of particulates and carcinogens? Ask them if they've heard of Snus. Blank stares have been most of the responses when we've checked local tobacco venders.
Know anyone in tobacco curing business who might be interested in improving their product? The incredible fact in this story is that the Swedes use KY tobacco... imagine the savings in user costs on top of health outcome improvement. Unfortunately the choices of source are online or traveling at least 100 miles! Even though we've heard that some older and remote farmers used to do their own this steam-way after selling the bulk of their cash crop to the bigtime tobacco processors.
Camel was supposedly claiming to be importing some of the Swedish steamcured chewing tobacco to test in the American market but you can't tell it by any measure of looking about to try it. Conceivably the story was suspect PR to try to redeem the Camel image or maybe the other brands at RJReynolds stifled the Camel strategy-idea before implementation for their own reasons.
There's even the unsavory possibility that the makers of nicotine patches and other drug company profiteers who benefit from American addiction to nicotine may have deepsixed this news at the the govt-trade-media level. Even research prestige and grant money are at stake. Otherwise, why do we have to find out these things from accidentally hearing foreign news? Someone -- singular or plural -- with big news-stifling abilities and a vested interest in tobacco addiction and its consequences in the US is -- couldn't be ;) -- sitting on this scientifically documented news, Eh?
In any case the Swedes have scored big time in finding/preserving this alternative to nicotine fits. I did find that the Germans and another European country, maybe two, were negotiating with the EU-trade restriction rulemakers on tobacco products to try to get Snus through the barriers between Euro markets.
Where's our big govt protectors of US health? Why do we not hear this alongside or even instead of the so-called anti-smoking furor makers? Who's benefiting from demanding total quitting instead of simply saving lives? To the extent that the idea isn't even allowed to be judged by the American people in the street, using their own economic power.
Here's what's known about *Snus* as the Swedes call it.............
Swedish snus is different in that it is made from steam-cured tobacco, rather than fire-cured, and its health effects are markedly different, with epidemiological studies showing dramatically lower rates of cancer and other tobacco-related health problems than cigarettes, American "Chewing Tobacco", or other known alternatives. Prominent Swedish brands are Swedish Match, Ettan, and Tre Ankare. In the Scandinavian countries, moist snuff comes either in loose powder form, to be pressed into a small ball or ovoid either by hand or with the use of a special tool. It is sometimes packaged in small bags, suitable for placing inside the upper lip, called "portion snuff". These small bags keep the loose tobacco from becoming lodged between the user's teeth; they also generate less spittle when in contact with mucous membranes inside the mouth which extends the usage time of the tobacco product and removes the need for spitting.
Since it is not smoked, snuff in general generates less of the nitrosamines and other carcinogens in the tar that forms from the partially anaerobic reactions in the smoldering smoked tobacco. The steam curing of snus rather than fire-curing or flue-curing of other smokeless tobaccos has been demonstrated to generate even fewer of such compounds than other varieties of snuff; 2.8 parts per mil for Ettan brand compared to as high as 127.9 parts per mil in American brands, according to a study by the State of Massachusetts Health Department. It is hypothesized that the widespread use of snus by Swedish men (estimated at 30% of Swedish men, possibly because it is much cheaper than cigarettes), displacing tobacco smoking and other varieties of snuff, is responsible for the incidence of tobacco-related mortality in men being significantly lower in Sweden than any other European country. In contrast, since women are much less likely to use snus, their rate of tobacco-related deaths in Sweden is similar to that in other European countries. Snus is clearly less harmful than other tobacco products; according to Kenneth Warner, director of the University of Michigan Tobacco Research Network,
"The Swedish government has studied this stuff to death, and to date, there is no compelling evidence that it has any adverse health consequences. ... Whatever they eventually find out, it is dramatically less dangerous than smoking."
There are two main types of snus on the market:
* original snus or lšssnus is a loose, moist powder which can be portioned and rolled into a cylindrical or spherical shape with the fingertips or snus portion tool. The end result is often referred to as a pris (pinch) or prilla or prell (slang for pris). * portionssnus, is prepackaged powder in small bags made from the same material as teabags. It comes in smaller quantities than the loose powder but is considered easier to handle (and expectorate) than the loose powder. And, unlike most US snuff, the user does not have to spit while using it.
Swedish snus is made from air dried tobacco from various parts of the world. In earlier times tobacco for making snus used to be laid out for drying in Scania and MŠlardalen. Later Kentucky tobaccos were used. The ground tobacco is mixed with water, salt, sodium carbonate and aroma and is prepared through heating, generally via steam. Moist snus contains more than 50% water, and the average use of snus in Sweden is approximately 800 grams (16 units) per person each year. 14% (900,000 people) of the adult population in Sweden uses snus.[citation needed] Unlike American-sold oral tobacco, snus has not gone through a fermentation process.
Snus is sold mainly in Sweden and Norway and Denmark and is being trialed in South Africa, but can be found in outlets in various other countries frequented by Scandinavian tourists like Murmansk in Russia and other Russian Border Towns (Norwegian Border) (with the notable exception of countries in the EU; see below). It is sold in small tins, which in the earlier years were made of porcelain, wood, silver or gold. At the time of writing, portioned snus usually comes in plastic tins of 24g, while loose snus is mostly sold in compressed paper tins with plastic lids, at 50g.
Portioned snus is most commonly sold in three different variants, namely mini, normal and maxi/large. The weights may vary, but the most sold snus labels share their weight info. Mini portions weigh 0.5g, with 20 pieces per tin. Normal - or standard - portions weigh 1g, with 24 portions per tin, and maxi portions weigh 1.7g, with 17 pieces per tin.
The price for the 50g product is approximately Ű4 in Sweden and Ű7.50 in Norway as Norwegian taxes are higher.
The total production of Swedish snus, mainly for the Scandinavian market, has been reported to be in excess of 300 million units per year. After the Norwegian government in June 2004 implemented a strict indoor smoking ban in public places, sales of snus sky-rocketed and several new variants of the product were put on the Norwegian market. When the Swedish government did the same thing in June 2005, sales of snus also increased dramatically.
Usage and storage
The most usual way to consume snus is to place it beneath the upper lip, and keep it there for a time varying from a few minutes to several hours, which varies greatly from person to person. Snus should be stored refrigerated to minimize the formation of nitrosamines. Many users report that cold snus is subjectively better than warm snus.
.... Let us know if you find any in our area .... I couldn't
The price outside scandinavia is the other issue we've been digging into. Not sure what those Swedish and Norwegian figures in the article represent in their daily expense/income realities.
Buying it online, has potentially some problems other than the high cost of shipping, Namely tobacco taxes are not figured in when you buy in large enough quantities to save on shipping by using UPS, so you may be on your own in dealing with that issue. Possibly online is "tax free" when you're a larger concern??? Even if not, it's probably too small a potato to get any individual in trouble if they 'neglect' to fight their way through the redtape, and manage to deal with the questions of whether it should be paid at all. TaxDept will take your money without worrying whether it's really valid legally if you offer it to them. Definitely not a fun or even economical option unless you factor in the health costs and cough like you've got emphasema or have a family history, etc etc OTOH, if you buy in smaller quantities and use USPS priority then they figure in the taxes and you're home-free on administrative details.
The prices I saw online ranged around $3.50-2.50 per tin and the shipping more than doubled that at #3.50, without even beginning to deal with taxes. OTOH, I'm not factoring in the idea that a 'portion' of snus is said to keep the user satisfied much longer than the dry stuff, especially snuff as an even clearer comparison.
As for Camel, here's what I found out from them... <
At this time, Snus is available only in test markets in South Bend & Indianapolis, IN, Kansas City, MO, Columbus, OH, Orlando, FL & Raleigh, NC and participating Sheetz stores in OH, PA, MD,WV & VA.
You mentioned you believe Snus may be a safer product. There are inherent risks with the use of cigarettes and smokeless tobacco products. U.S. Surgeon General Warnings are required for both categories of products, and those warnings appear on all packages of Camel Snus.
I hope this information is helpful. >>
If you go to your or some county fair -- or a state fair -- and notice tobacco representatives -- growers, processors, sellers -- make sure they hear that we, the public, know about snus and want to see progress in saving lives. Maybe you can trigger that movement and be a life-saving assistant for lots of our people, especially our own family members. At least for now and for this hazard and for all our Columbos.

I always seem to have a few projects on the go at one time, at the moment I've got a couple of unfinished 4ply things languishing in the knitting trunk (must get back to work on those this weekend) and have also just started a work knit. This is a piece of knitting I keep at work to occupy me at lunch time so that I don't spend the entire hour staring at the screen.
A work knit needs to be fairly simple (no fancy laces) and quick working (stops the inevitable comments of "you'll never finish that" from sarcastic colleagues), so I tend to pick easy patterns in a thick wool.
I started my current work knit yesterday and it is this marvellous 40s style jumper from wedding dress designers, Flossy and Dossy. While the finished article on their site looks complicated, this is actually knit in a deceptively simple twisted rib.
I say deceptively simple, but I did have a little "logic fail" on knitting up my swatch and followed the pattern instructions to K2, P3 when actually, if I'd looked at the rib I would have started with the P3. Just me being a dumbo though.
In any case, it is knitting up beautifully now in a lovely hot pink Aran from the King Cole Merino Blend range. I adore this yarn and cannot wait to see how it washes.
|It doesn't matter how I post this, it still comes out upside down.
|Right way up in "my pictures" dammit!
This would be a great first sweater knit as it works up very swiftly, I seem to be knitting at just over 1 inch per hour. It is also easy to resize as the pattern repeat is 5 stitches which - give or take a little - corresponds to one inch. You don't have to be too precise with resizing a ribbed sweater as there is so much natural give to the stitch.
Right, its lunchtime here. Time to get knitting!

- Not to be confused with the X-Ray Scope from Super Metroid.
The X-Ray Visor is a Visor upgrade that can be collected in Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. It uses X-rays to see in situations where the visible spectrum of light may prove inadequate.
In Metroid PrimeEdit
The X-Ray Visor can be used to spot invisible enemies, even those that don't appear to the Thermal Visor, and it also allows Samus to see through human flesh (when she lifts her arm in front of the visor, her hand's skeleton can be seen), Bendezium, Cordite, and Sandstone. The disadvantages to the visor include its monochrome image, which can make it difficult to differentiate between several objects or enemies, and its very low visibility range. Enemies that can be tracked with the X-Ray Visor include Flickerbats and the Chozo Ghosts.
Samus obtains the X-Ray Visor in the Life Grove in a secret part of Tallon Overworld.
In Metroid Prime 3: CorruptionEdit
The X-Ray visor appears in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption with a revamped look. While most objects are varying shades of blue, the heat signatures of some objects appear to be visible as an orange tint, much like when Samus uses the Thermal Visor from Metroid Prime. Power-ups are also visible while using the X-Ray Visor, which can be useful if Samus is searching for any power-ups in the surrounding area.
The material Phazite is penetrable by X-rays, allowing Samus' visor to see through it. This, when used in combination with the Nova Beam, a beam weapon that can pass through Phazite, is very helpful. If this visor is used in conjunction with the Nova Beam, Samus can target the weak spots of certain enemies (such as the brains of Commando Pirates and Berserker Knights and the internal nuclei of Phazon Metroids and Metroid Hatchers) for a one-hit-kill. Collecting the visor makes certain devices usable as well, such as the code locks scattered across the Pirate Homeworld.
However, this version of the X-Ray Visor still retains the weaknesses of its previous incarnation: enemies and some objects will appear in monochrome, making it difficult to notice weapons and attacks. Enemies without weak points will also become harder to see with the visor active. Finally, if a nearby enemy enters Hypermode while Samus is using the X-Ray Visor, it will overload the visor and fill the HUD with static.
Samus acquires the new X-Ray Visor on the Pirate Command sector of the Pirate Homeworld. She needs to deactivate a Multi-Lock Blast Shield with the Seeker Missiles to obtain it.
Official dataEdit
Inventory dataEdit
X-Ray Visor
The X-Ray Visor can see through certain types of materials.
Press /Hold and point right to select the X-Ray Visor.
The X-Ray Visor can reveal invisible items, areas, and enemies.
Robotic enemies jam the X-Ray Visor's frequency. Eliminate them to restore function to the Visor.
X-Ray Visor
The X-Ray Visor can be used to see through objects made of Phazite.
Push and hold to bring up Visor Select. Move the cursor into the lower-left zone and release to enter X-Ray Visor.
The X-Ray Visor can be used to see the inner workings of devices and hidden weak points behind Phazite armor. Targets behind Phazite will require a high-frequency Beam to hit.
Metroid Prime manualEdit
"After Samus tracks down the X-Ray Visor, she'll be able to peer through walls to find hidden passages and even see hidden objects. This visor also helps track any enemies that use optical camouflage to render themselves invisible to the naked eye. As with the Thermal Visor, the X-Ray Visor can often identify alternate means of attacking foes."
Official Metroid Prime websiteEdit
"The X-Ray Visor upgrades Samus Aran's Heads Up Display with the ability to see through certain types of materials. Samus uses the X-Ray visor to reveal invisible enemies, areas and items. Caution is used around robotic enemies, which can jam the X-Ray Visor's frequency."
Metroid Prime flashEdit
"Once acquired, the X-Ray Visor will make hidden areas and objects visible, and enable you to view enemies that use optical camouflage. This visor is essential for uncovering all of Tallon IV's secrets."
- The X-Ray Visor was preceded by a similar upgrade in Super Metroid, the X-Ray Scope. This item allowed Samus to see through false walls and water as well as see invisible walls, special blocks, and hidden items. The Dark Visor in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes is also very similar to the X-Ray Visor, especially when compared to its appearance in Corruption.
- In Corruption, there appears to be an in-game joke (pictured right). When the X-Ray Visor is collected, Samus stares right at the screen as though she could see through it and watch the player, seeming to break the fourth wall. She also makes a faint gasp during the cutscene.
- In Metroid Prime, the X-Ray Visor reveals that Samus changes her Arm Cannon's beam types by positioning her fingers in a shape resembling the symbol of the weapon in question. To see this, the background must be an area mostly devoid of machinery (such as the Root Cave in the Tallon Overworld) since machinery appears white like Samus' bones, while organic material appears mostly dark.
- A graphical glitch occurs in the Wii versions of the game (featuring motion sensing controls): using the X-Ray Visor reveals that Samus's hand is not affected by recoil when firing the Arm Cannon, and remains still, although the cannon is pushed back. A Charge Beam shot can even make the hand clip outside of the cannon (best seen with the Wave Beam).
- In Corruption, it would appear that several or all Space Pirates also possess an X-Ray Visor (or some alternative) as several random code terminals on their Homeworld require the Visor to be used.
- The Corruption X-Ray Visor is the only Visor Samus collects in the game, since she already has three (though the Command Visor is only usable after authorization).
- In a trailer for Prime from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Master Quest, the Cloaked Drone is seen fought with the X-Ray Visor, which Samus does not have by that point in the final game.
- Clark Wen, the audio lead for Prime and Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, said that he enjoys the sound of the original X-Ray Visor, which was the first to be implemented in the game. The sound is a mix of synthetic textures that he created in MetaSynth, and ran through a resonant filter on Access Virus. Five minutes after it was added to the game, Mike Wikan called him to tell him he loved it.[1]

I'm sitting in some other teacher's fourth grade class as a sub. It's a short time I am here, the students are at recess, and I've come to the realization that I may never teach full time. Sure, right now I'm working full time as a sub, but that long term or permanent position is always out of reach. Most recently I lost out on a position I am highly qualified for and was told it was because the principal thought another person would be a better fit, BUT if I need a recommendation he would be happy to give me one. Not even a few hours later I hit him up on it and he says he needs more time seeing how I teach before writing one… Okay, so he has enough info on my teaching to not hire me for ONLY the rest of the year but not enough to write the recommendation he offered … hmm.
What I am learning in my district is, if you are a great, flexible substitute principals are reluctant to hire you and remove you from the much needed sub pool. This is not the first time I've been in a building where they LOVE me as a sub but hire outside of the sub pool for positions I can easily fulfill.
So what does this have to do with being an author? This blog is, after all, about me as an author, right? Well, I also have recently been hounded by you fans to finish Changes, or to start Cesair's Chronicles. My author email has also been receiving messages related to the writing industry, but are some form of spam. To me, this says my books are worth while and getting noticed, even by websites associated with reading and writing.
What these events boil down to is me seeing that the universe is telling me I should write. Sure, I'm a good teacher. I've had parents tell me they want me teaching their children. I've had kids of all ages tell me I'm awesome and the best teacher they know. However, I don't tend to fit a lot of the status quo. I don't hold back information. I have VERY high expectations. I believe all students' thoughts and beliefs are important and should be shared and heard, especially when they differ. And, I firmly believe science is THE most important thing in school and NOTHING in science should be held back, no matter the age. These beliefs put a wedge between me and most educators–hint to why our schools are struggling in America– because they don't think this way. Most teachers won't go near evolution, usually for personal reasons.
Well universe, I'm listening. More time will be devoted to writing and less on me worrying if I will ever fit into a rigid mold which is afraid to change. Personally, I'd rather fit in the erotic/romance/sci fi writer mold. 😉

If a female president is good for the Ivy League, why not for the rest of us?
On July 1, Elizabeth Garrett assumed the presidency of Cornell University.
With this, half of the eight-member Ivy League schools now have female presidents. Garrett joins an illustrious group: Christina Paxson (Brown University), Drew Faust (Harvard University) and Amy Gutmann (University of Pennsylvania).

In a recent post on the Health Beat blog, Naomi Freundlich comments that although life-expectancy is increasing, so is the incidence of multiple medical problems and chronic disease in the elderly. Which, once again, raises the question of how Medicare costs could possibly be tamed?
The author goes on to say that "we also face a more personal, moral challenge as life expectancy continues its relentless march forward: We must begin to separate new treatments that will help older people age better—avoiding long-term disability, dementia and frailty—from those that merely extend life at any cost. We can only do this by having honest conversations about end-of-life issues; in medical schools, among families and between doctors and patients. "
The Urban Institute, a nonpartisan research center, found in a 2009 report that the government could save $90.8 billion over 10 years by better managing end-of-life care. And, the Institute further concluded that much end-of-life spending isn't sought by patients and goes against their families' expressed preferences.
$90 BILLION dollars. Makes me wonder who would be receiving that money if it were spent. Surely, much of it would go to hospitals. And some of it to physicians. Makes me wonder also if this subject can be discussed rationally, rather than it being a discussion about rationing.

"Archival artist" is not a medium I'd heard of before, but it's fitting for Akram Zaatari, the Beirut-based artist and archivist whose work is on view at MoMA through Monday. A founder of the Arab Image Foundation in 1997, devoted to preserving photography from North Africa and the Middle East, the two videos at MoMA bely the image-collecting tendencies at the center of his artistic practice.
The centerpiece of the exhibit (with movie house style seats and everything), "On Photography, People, and Modern Times" showcases items collected for the AIF in the late 1990s along with filmed interviews with the images' donors on their memories of the events and people captured in those pictures.

What is Windows? Windows is a personal computer operating system from Microsoft that, together with some commonly used business applications such as Microsoft Word and Excel, has become a de facto "standard" for individual users in most corporations as well as in most homes.
Can I host my site on Windows?Yes. As a matter of fact, more and more people every day are choosing Windows as their hosting platform. The tools for developing web applications on the Windows platform are quickly gaining momentum in the web design marketplace, in turn making creating websites on Windows more appealing.
What is IIS, and what can it do for me? IIS (Internet Information Server) is a group of Internet servers (including a Web or Hypertext Transfer Protocol server and a File Transfer Protocol server) with additional capabilities for Microsoft's Windows NT and Windows 2000 Server operating systems. IIS is Microsoft's entry to compete in the Internet server market that is also addressed by Apache, Sun Microsystems, O'Reilly, and others. With IIS, Microsoft includes a set of programs for building and administering Web sites, a search engine, and support for writing Web-based applications that access databases. Microsoft points out that IIS is tightly integrated with the Windows NT and 2000 Servers in a number of ways, resulting in faster Web page serving.
Why should I choose to host my site on a Windows-based machine? Windows machines should be used when Microsoft technologies are needed or desired. IIS (Internet Information Server) is the standard for utilizing ASP (and ASP.NET), and is required if you wish to utilize Windows databases, such as Microsoft Access and SQL Server. Windows hosting is also required if you wish to use any components (CGI, ISAPI, or COM) that were developed using a Windows-based programming language.
What scripting languages are available for Windows? There are many options available when it comes to writing CGI scripts on a Windows machine. The most common at the time of this writing are ASP, ASP.NET, and PHP. There are many introductions, tutorials, and even sample scripts available on the Internet when it comes to utilizing these scripting languages.
Can I get pre-made code for my Windows website? Yes. There are many pre-made programs and objects written for Windows web servers. These programs vary in functionality from small components that you build into your website, to full-blown enterprise applications. Likewise, the price for such varies as well, ranging from free to very expensive. There are a number of websites on the internet that cater to Windows website development, that offer links to both free and purchased software.
What databases are available for my Window website? That depends mostly on the web hosting provider you select to host your website. There are many flavors of databases that run on Windows, but the most prevalent among web host providers are Microsoft Access, Microsoft SQL Server (SQL2000), and MySQL. These databases (with the exception of Access) are all relational in nature, and allow highly optimized communication with your website for quick retrieval of information. Microsoft Access databases are actually just database files created with Microsoft Access that the web server can read and write to. Access databases dont offer the processing power of the other database options.
How does Windows compare to Unix Hosting? Here is a short comparison of key features, and which are available for the Windows and Unix platforms.
What should be my main concerns when searching for a Windows hosting provider? As with any business relationship, it is important that you provider has a solid foundation in the business, and isnt a fly-by-night type of operation. Many web-hosting providers fail each year, so it is important to find a well-established company to do business with. Next, you want to make sure of their technical abilities. What are their technicians qualifications, what is their connection to the Internet, what are their guarantees in regards to customer support and uptime? All of these questions are crucial to locating and selecting a quality Windows hosting provider.
What qualifications should my Windows host provide? It is essential that the support and management staff be properly trained to handle all of the nuances associated with networking and hosting on the Windows platform. The two most acceptable certifications in this matter are the MCSA and the MCSE. The MCSE certification covers the planning, design, and implementation Microsoft Windows server solutions and architectures. The MCSA is more of an administration certification, which covers the management and maintenance of typically complex computing environments of medium- to large-sized companies.
Glossary of terms:
ASP An Active Server Page (ASP) is an HTML page that includes one or more scripts (small embedded programs) that are processed on a Microsoft Web server before the page is sent to the user. ASP is a feature of the Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS), but, since the server-side script is just building a regular HTML page, it can be delivered to almost any browser. ASP.NET ASP.NET (originally called ASP+) is the next generation of Microsoft's Active Server Page (ASP), a feature of their Internet Information Server (IIS). Both ASP and ASP.NET allow a Web site builder to dynamically build Web pages on the fly by inserting queries to a relational database in the Web page. ASP.NET is different than its predecessor in two major ways: it supports code written in compiled languages such as Visual Basic, C++, C#, and Perl, and it features server controls that can separate the code from the content, allowing WYSIWYG editing of pages.
CGI Common Gateway Interface. In Laymans terms, a CGI program is a program that can be executed as part of a web server process.
Cold Fusion Special software package that simplifies the creation of database driven web sites.
Component A small piece of functionality, that may consist of a script, small program, or even a COM object that can be used within a Windows website.
MCSA Microsoft Certified Systems Administrators (MCSAs) administer network and systems environments based on the Microsoft Windows® platforms.
MCSE Microsoft Certified Systems Engineers (MCSEs) analyze business requirements to design and implement an infrastructure solution based on the Windows platform and Microsoft Servers software.
PHP In Web programming, PHP is a script language and interpreter that is freely available and used primarily on Linux Web servers.
SQL SERVER This is Microsofts SQL based database server. Its speed and processing power are among the best available in the industry today.
Uptime Uptime is a computer industry term for the time during which a computer is operational. Downtime is the time when it isn't operational. Uptime is sometimes measured in terms of a percentile. For example, one standard for uptime that is sometimes discussed is a goal called five 9s - that is, a computer that is operational 99.999 percent of the time.

Mocs' Consiglio caps career with SoCon honor
CHATTANOOGA (UTC) -- The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga linebacker Ryan Consiglio was named the Southern Conference Defensive Player of the Week, the league office announced Monday.
Consiglio capped off his four years at UTC with a career-high 19 tackles in a tought 28-27 loss to No. 12 Wofford last weekend.
Consiglio recorded 13 solo stops and was credited with six assisted tackles, including one tackle for loss. His 19 tackles tied for the third highest single-game output in the conference this season. The senior finished 2011 with a league-high 120 tackles. His 10.9 tackles per game average is tied for No. 15 in the nation.
Saturday's performance was Consiglio's 10th game of at least 10 tackles this season and was the highest single-game total for a Moc since 2001. The Franklin, Tenn., native finishes his career sixth on UTC's all-time tackles list with 321.
Consiglio is a big piece of the Mocs' unit that leads the SoCon and is No. 13 in the nation in total defense, allowing 305.3 yards per game. He also represents the 11th weekly honors for Chattanooga this season, extending the Mocs' school record for awards in one year. UTC also leads the SoCon with its 11 weekly honors in 2011.
This is the third Defensive Player of the Week honor in Consiglio's career. He also won the award once in each of the previous two seasons.

Governor Jerry Brown's lead over Republican gubernatorial challenger Neel Kashkari dropped to 16% with just two months to go until November's midterm election, according to the results of a Field Poll published Thursday. Brown previously held a 20% lead in June.
Despite the shift, Brown still has two significant advantages over Kashkari, according to the data. First, Brown holds significant leads with key voting blocs in Independents (18 points), "middle of the road" voters (32 percent), and permanent mail ballot registrants (19 points). The lead among mail ballot registrants is crucial, because the majority of those casting votes in November are likely to do so by mail.
Second, Kashkari still has a recognizability problem. While 91% of likely voters are familiar enough with Jerry Brown to register an opinion of him, just 59% are able to express an opinion on Kashkari, a relative newcomer to the political arena. Brown also remains highly popular in general, with a 58% approval rating to 36% disapproval, although interestingly, Brown's disapproval numbers shot up 7% between June and late August.
Brown's comfortable lead is bolstered even further by his dominance over Kashkari in Los Angeles County and the Bay Area; he holds a 63 point lead in San Francisco and a 22 point lead in L.A. County. Meanwhile, Kashkari holds small leads in the Central Valley and other parts of Southern California.
Voter support for both candidates is also highly split along ideological lines; 85% of Democrats approve of the Governor's job performance, while 75% of Republicans disapprove. For Kashkari, 43% of Democrats disapprove and an identical 43% have no opinion. The majority of Republicans view Kashkari favorably, at 67%, but a significant 30% have no opinion of him.
If Kashkari is to mount a serious challenge to Governor Brown in November, he will need to make himself broadly more recognizable to California's voters. Brown and Kashkari will face off in Sacramento on Thursday night in what is expected to be their only debate before the election.

Analyst weighs in on Leopard, expected Macworld launchesApple's upcoming release of Mac OS X Leopard could provide a major boost to the company's bottom line during the fall and could be bolstered even further by a new portable in January, according to a new report by analyst Gene Munster of investment firm Piper Jaffay.
The researcher maintained that Apple was "on track" to release Leopard by the end of October and that its timing could result in a surge of about $240 million to Apple's calendar fourth quarter results, even if adoption rates were similar to those from Mac OS X Tiger, which launched in April 2005. At the time, 15 percent of Apple's users bought either Tiger or a Mac preloaded with the software within six weeks of launch —a feat possible due to the Mac maker's smaller customer base, but still widely believed to be a major accomplishment.
This uptake was expected to be higher as Apple's overall number of users running Mac OS X had nearly doubled from 12 to 23 million, Munster said. And unlike the launch of Windows Vista in January this year, Mac buyers were less likely to dent sales by waiting to receive the upgrade with a new computer, even as many enthusiasts upgraded or replaced existing systems specifically due to the new features.
"While we do not believe many consumers delay the purchase of a Mac because of Leopard, we expect its new features and updated look to be positive for Mac sales," the analyst wrote.
Munster supported the argument by drawing attention to projected Mac shipments in the quarter, which he predicted would range between 2.0 and 2.1 million units thanks in part to the new aluminum iMac and the back-to-school rush. iPhone and iPod sales traffic was likewise strong at retail outlets.
Apple was also unlikely to remain idle after the holiday season wrapped up, he added. The Piper Jaffray expert noted that the Cupertino, Calif.-based computer builder was most likely to expand its portable devices with at least one new system at Macworld show in January. Either a new Mac subnotebook or a multi-touch tablet was said to be '80 percent likely' for the IDG-run event.
Based on the new estimates, Piper Jaffray maintained its Outperform rating on Apple's stock, which surged 4 percent on Monday to close just short of $168.

Audrey's Night Out, hosted by Audrey Magazine was held at the fabulous Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California on Saturday evening. Hundreds of people, fashion notables, and well-known Asian-American celebrities packed the brilliantly transformed hangar. Simplistic in it's transformation, black curtains hung from ceiling to cement floors, which were left barren to make way for the contrasting stark-white chairs that were placed around the runway. Pink, blue, and purple lights provided an intimate setting for the room. Upon entrance guests were greeted by a star-studded red carpet that included, Audrey magazine's cover girl, Jamie Chung, as well as Justin Chon, James Kyson, Jane Kim, Grace Su and including the well-known music group, Legaci.
Once inside guests had the chance to take in the scenery. A private jet was placed at the rear of the hangar. The jet, provided by 360 Jets who also sponsored the event, additionally donated a round-trip flight to Vegas for one lucky attendee and three of their closest friends. The trip for four also included a complimentary suite at The Cosmopolitan. Guests enjoyed cocktails and appetizers by additional sponsors; Lawry's & Kabuki, and a Hosted Bar by Jameson Irish Whiskey & Tequila Loca as well as coconut water by, O.N.E. Coconut.
After walking the entire hangar a few times, I settled into the long awaited sushi line, which was catered by Kabuki. As someone who considers herself to be an avid lover of all types of sushi—I was pleased with the options provided—as Kabuki did not disappoint. The entire catering staff worked tirelessly creating tray after tray of sushi right up until the lights dimmed for the runway show to begin. The announcer even had to politely inform guests to please take their seats, "as no more food would be served."
Being careful not to spill on my dress I finished my plate of sushi and found my seat. I sat eagerly awaiting the runway show, which featured designers: Rebecca Grant, Richard Bowman, Brian Lichtenberg, and Julia Clancey. The Show kicked off with Jamie Chung, and Justin Chon providing some comic relief while waiting for microphones to be placed on stage. The two, (second-cousins) had a noticeable rapport and put the audience at ease.
The show began with a performance by Legaci—the all male-Filipino group, recently finished touring with Justin Bieber. The group seeming pleased with their performance exited the stage, leaving the roaring crowd behind them.
Smiles were strewn across their faces, which were easily seen from the second row. The designers presented lines with varying aesthetics; each was unique to the designers themselves. Noticeable themes arose on the runway including varying shades of dark hues, mainly black. Sequins appeared in several of the designer's collections. Several designers chose to incorporate feathers, and different embellishments to enhance their collections. A variety of silhouettes and style-lines graced the runway leaving the audience with plenty of eye-candy to choose from.
The close of the night, unfortunately, left the audience somber—but not empty handed. The highly anticipated performance by Carly Rae Jepsen was canceled due to a flight delay but VIP audience members left with a gift bag provided by sponsors: NYX Cosmetics, TC Charton, La Fresh, Amore Pacific, Laundry, Wi Spa, Crunchyroll, Naked Princess.
Now in it's fifth year, Audrey's Night Out was a success, despite a few minor details. The producer for the night Andrew Patterson (Producer for America's Next Top Model) delivered an event that was beautifully organized, and well received. It's apparent that with each passing year, Audrey Magazine continues to deliver. With anticipation and yearning I cannot wait to see what Audrey Magazine has in store for the year to come.

Sephora and Pantone Launch Makeup Line for 2016
Year in, year out the Pantone color of the year having been announced, willy-nilly we find ourselves in great anticipation of the Sephora + Pantone Universe Color of the Year 2016 collaborative makeup products to be launched. It has already become a tradition for Sephora and Pantone Universe to unite their forces for the release of a makeup line around the year's winner color. The year of 2015 enjoyed a makeup line where the winning color Marsala was the protagonist, while the year of 2014 was renowned by the Radiant-Orchid-oriented makeup collection release. The upcoming year of 2016 has the whole two winning colors at its disposal, which means that Sephora + Pantone Universe collaboration will leave us in the thick of Rose Quartz and Serenity experimental processes for a long time.
The collaboration gave birth to a 24-shaded rich makeup palette, two matte lipsticks in Rose Quartz and Serenity and a 6-piece Watercolor lip gloss set. The launch date is not yet revealed though we know that the paramount day will be within December and we also know that we should hurry, as the collection is limited edition. According to WWD, nothing will be priced over $39 and we can purchase the sweet nothings at Sephora stores and on Sephora.com later this month. Take a close look at the collection's integral parts and start planning your future precious investments in your look.
Sephora+Pantone Universe Modern Watercolors Eye Palette ($39.00) (Limited Edition)
This rich eye palette containing 24 different shades is not destined for playing only with Rose Quartz and Serenity. The plethora of shades with matte or shimmery effect, with nude or popping versions is to provide you with multiple attractive looks, focusing on the spring/ summer 2016 color trends. Here is how Sephora pro Helen Phillips is explaining the interplay between these rich shades: "Neutrals like greige can accentuate the softness of Serenity and Rose Quartz. It complements both tones and can add depth as a crease color. Monochromatic looks with pinks and blues can also add depth and be a fun party look. Try Rose Quartz with a bright pink as a crease color or Serenity with navy to bring dimension."
Sephora+Pantone Universe Colors of the Year Matte Lipsticks in Serenity and Rose Quartz ($18.00) (Limited Edition)
You have definitely at least once tried pale pink shade on your lips but you have never seen powdery blue lips of yours reflected in the mirror, for sure. Both come to be in creamy cushiony formula thus providing highly pigmented color to your lips. The tubes being designed in Rose Quartz-Serenity ombré effect drop a hint that you can work out super attractive ombré lips with Pantone 2016 colors come spring. Your favorite Sephora does not leave you alone in this intricate process and provides you with an effective tip on how to wear ombré lips: "Apply either Rose Quartz or Serenity to your bottom lip and then rub the top into it for a modern, light gradient effect. Make sure there is enough color on the top and if not, reapply to the bottom lip again and repeat."
Sephora+Pantone Universe Modern Watercolors Lip Gloss Set ($28.00) (Limited Edition)
The Rose Quartz and Serenity lip-glosses are complemented by four other rich and shocking colors like Cantaloupe, Fox Glove, Pale Banana and Sunlit Allium, which will make you a spring-worthy babe.

When space systems engineers at Honeywell began looking for ways to improve the performance and reliability of small satellites, they didn't have to look very far. After all, we developed and built momentum control systems and guidance and navigation systems for most of the larger satellites orbiting the earth today.
Now we've taken on the challenge of applying our industry-leading expertise to the unique challenges that small satellites present. That means reducing product size, weight, power requirements and manufacturing costs while developing products with the reliability and performance characteristics that enable satellites weighing less than 500 pounds to be cost-effective and achieve their important missions.
Smaller satellites are becoming a much larger part of the satellite business, with several major new constellations in various stages of development. For example, OneWeb is planning a 600-satellite constellation to deliver high-speed Internet services to remote areas around the world. Honeywell and OneWeb are working together to bring the benefits of this planned network to aircraft operators and passengers. In all, these initiatives will place thousands of small satellites in earth orbit.
Honeywell's expertise in space systems gives us a foundation to build upon as we develop capabilities to meet the needs of this rapidly expanding market. For example, our new on-board processing systems are radiation hardened with high throughput and modular packaging to support a variety of integrated attitude control system missions and architectures. Our space electronics solutions focus on solving our customers' needs. We have demonstrated the ability to reduce program risk, deliver on time and meet customer performance specifications and life requirements.
Honeywell reaction wheel assemblies are reliable, lightweight solutions that provide stability and attitude-control for small to very large satellites. Earth-pointing satellites and multiple-satellite communication networks are examples of applications that require the fine attitude control that Honeywell can provide. Honeywell reaction wheels have accumulated more than 113 million hours, or more than 12,900 years, in space and have never caused a mission to end prematurely.
Space systems engineers are taking a One Honeywell approach as they explore options for a new generation of products designed to meet the specific needs of small satellites. They're forging partnerships with other Honeywell business units, including those that build aircraft engines and avionics systems and automotive turbochargers, to find ways to apply techniques they've perfected to achieving the right balance between affordability and reliability.

Well that was a pretty good weekend!
4 BDH qualifiers – 2 winners. For good measure the Haydock Sprint Cup winner was also thrown into the mix; good work GLB.
When reviewing the weekends action for my own records I also, naturally, kept my BDH brain in full recruitment mode as I look to replace and strengthen our squad. Unfortunately nothing instantly stood out at me and I won't add new members just for the sake of it. That would be pointless and a sure way to eek into our profits.
I have a couple of potentials in mind but I want to review the action again with a fresh mind, possibly tonight or tomorrow, and do a bit more digging into their previous form.
For now, however, I'll give you my thoughts on our 4 weekend runners and where we go from here with them…
Weekend BDH runners…
BDH Runner: REDVERS 1.55 Ascot – 1st at BFSP 10.37
He was drawn with pace round about him and jockey Richard Kingscote gave him a superb ride, hooking behind the pace on his side instead of right out the back and cruising into contention in style; job was a good 'un.
As far as I'm concerned for our BDH list it is "thanks and good-bye, we will call again if your services are required". As always that doesn't mean I won't back him in the future but for now he drops off the BDH list after doing the job we employed him for; securing us some tasty profits!
Good lad Redvers and best of luck going forward.
BDH Runner: WAKING WARRIOR 2.00 Thirsk – 6th at BFSP 12.5
The Kevin Ryan horse always seemed to be climbing a slippy slope here and that has to go down primarily to the draw. I thought it may be tricky from his berth but I maybe gave too much credence to its effect being lessened over the furlong further. Lesson learned and for now he stays in our squad.
I want to see him get a real shot at a race from a decent draw before making a solid assessment of his position in our squad.
BDH Runner: TAWHID 2.40 Haydock – 4th at BFSP 4.92
Hmmmmm…Tawhid…hmmmmmm. Either Mosse got the tactics wrong or the tactics he was given were wrong. The horse maybe didn't help himself too much either but the facts are he managed to meet trouble in-running and wasn't really able show his true potential. Once in the clear, and the race was over, he looked to have plenty left to give.
I learned nothing from this run, which is a shame as he had his ground on this occasion and should have been able to show more. He stays on the list for now.
BDH Runner: DUNGANNON 5.10 Ascot 1st at BFSP 4.74
This played out perfectly for Dunny and he made no mistake this time. I was a bit concerned by the price beforehand but I managed to get 5.5 on the exchanges about 15-20 mins before the off and I was happy with that; the more I looked at the race through the day the more convinced I became that he was going to win. (I tweeted 10 mins before the off that I had backed him, for transparency's sake).
I see no need to keep him in our squad from here on in and like Redvers we say goodbye to Dunny after his well-timed victory at Ascot.
Good job Dunny, job well done, we may well see you back in the squad at some time in the future…
The other race covered by myself was the Group 1 Haydock Sprint Cup…
Haydock Sprint Cup
GORDON LORD BYRON did the job in fantastic style for us and that my friends is how you win a Group 1 contest! Impressive! To be fair he had his conditions but regardless of that fact it was an almighty performance.
In the end I only went with Heeraat as my cover bet, viewing of the ground from earlier races put me off Lethal Force as did his ever diminishing price. My own pace notes suggested he wouldn't get an easy lead and that mixed with the softened ground just didn't sit well with me as we approached the off. It is safe to say his run shouldn't be taken at face value, he is waaaay better than the end result and conditions simply did not play to his strengths.
Heeraat ran a very poor race but his jockey Paul Hanagan did report after the race that his mount had 'lost it's action' so we maybe also shouldn't take his run at face value either.
In the end this was all about GLB though and he confirmed that when conditions are tilted towards him he is a serious player in the Group 1 sprinting division.
BDH Handicap Sleepers…
Some of you probably noticed that one of the handicap sleepers in my recent FREE guide was running at York yesterday; TIGER REIGNS in the 3.35. You will also have hopefully noted he was clearly a 'no-bet'.
The field size was way outside his comfort zone and he was also running over a trip that was 2.5 furlongs longer than his optimum; he finished a comfortable 41 lengths behind the winner in 18th place!
Personally I'm happy with that. That should see another drop down the ratings from Mr Handicapper and it should also see him start at some juicy odds next time out. Hopefully connections will find a race that meets requirements on his next start (if you have the guide you know what they are), I really think he can land something at lofty odds when he gets his conditions…
Closing thoughts for the day…
Back to the main BDH list and if I see a potential new addition to our squad to replace Redvers and Dungannon then I will fire up a Blog post later in the week with all the details.
I'm also now getting properly stuck into the National Hunt game behind the scenes as I start work on the NTF National Hunt service 2013/14. I'll hopefully still be blogging as regularly as usual on here but if not you know the reason why…
Ben (BDH)

Had MK Stav Shafir speak to us and also the one and only Natan Sharansky share his amazing story. #MyITFExperience #MasaIsrael #FutureJewishLeaders

The night topped off with learning about Judaism from all around the world. So many points made that I want to look into more deeply.

5th December, 2014 The Western Wall: The last hours before שבת are some of the most peaceful and relaxing hours. When you start to lose focus and stop living in the present, go to that place that will help reground you.

9th October, 2014 Can this be considered a typical day in Netanya? A BBQ in the Sukkah, followed by spending the rest of the day at the beach and watching the beautiful sunset (yet again), and then an evening watching an orchestra play for free to a packed out crowd of over a thousand people. Not knowing we were watching the famous Israeli singer Rami Kleinstein. I can get use to this life!!

I have been blessed with the ability to explore a country I love, and witness the natural beauty a sunset can give you everyday. The sunset gives you an opportunity to sit and reflect on the day, week, or month. I am excited to see what the next month will bring!! Highlights will include spending Yom Kippur in the Holy City of Jerusalem, and spending a week up in Tzfat hiking, volunteering, and learning. I wouldn't trade anything in the world to give up this opportunity. #MyITFExperience #TeachInIsrael #LiveItLikeALocal #IsraelPathways #ITFNetanya #MASAIsrael #EnjoyTheJourney #YetAnotherIsraelSunset

22nd September, 2014 Alumot School Today was my first full day teaching, and what do I get in return? My own card wishing my שנה טובה (Happy New Year) from a boy in my 5th grade class.

19th September, 2014 Another week has come to a close. This Friday was spent with some very special people. All day at the beach, followed by a Kabbalat Shabbat and then a breakfast themed Shabbat dinner. There is nothing better than a Shabbat in Israel. It has only been three weeks and I still can't believe I get to do this every week for at least the next nine months. I am so blessed to be here in Israel with such amazing people #ShabbatShalom #MyITFExperience #LiveItLikeALocal #MASAIsrael #ITFNetanya #TeachInIsrael
13th September, 2014 Shuk Carmel, Tel Aviv It felt great to find a craft beer IPA yesterday from the walk home from the beach in Tel-Aviv. Now if I only knew where the brewery was so I could taste more of the brews. #MyITFExperience #TeachInIsrael #ITFNetanya #IsraelCraftBeers
11th September, 2014 Today is a day that we will never forget. These attacks may have directly effected the people of New York, Washington DC, and Pennsylvania, but it entered the world into a new age. Militaries around the world are fighting against terrorism. This was no exception to the Israeli IDF this past summer. It may be 13 years since this frightening day (which always hits home to me being a proud New Yorker), but let's not forget that the fight is still going on today and we need to support and thank every single military personnel around the world fighting the fight against terrorism. Be sure to thank everyone you see today that sacrifices there lives everyday to keep us safe. God Bless #WeWillNeverForget #PeaceWillCome #USA

This map is made by DatMinecraftChicken and is showcased by qdengler -#1 Source Minecraft Xbox 360 Maps. The makers added all stuff that came with TU12 into this map, so they added iron golems, ocelots, jungle trees, upside down stairs and slabs, chissled stone etc. The map is pretty open so you can see other players from a distance. It's a pretty small hunger games map which can be played with 3 to 8 people. Enjoy!

Chrysoprase and grey moonstone earrings surrounded by diamonds on black gold
I first met Bridget King of Brigetta Jewellery in 2004 and since then have watched her develop into an incredibly talented designer. I was initially drawn to her bold costume jewellery, but more recently have become a fan of her fine jewellery pieces thanks to their subtle blend of classicism with fashion forward details. To me, it's also her meticulous attention to detail that really sets her apart from other jewellers. Her pieces are always beautifully crafted, using the right mix of colours and materials. She is also a total perfectionist and you can really see that in her work.
Which brings me to her latest collection, which will be launched at an exclusive trunk show on May 9 at Kee Club. While her previous pieces have centred around diamonds, the new collection goes back to her roots and features plenty of colour and organic shapes. The result is an edgy yet elegant line of earrings featuring unusual combinations of semi-precious stones ranging from moonstones, brown sapphires and opals to chrysoprase. Each pair is outlined with diamonds and set in either rose or black gold.
Brown sapphire and white opal surrounded by diamonds on rose gold
Since versatility and multi-functionality is what she is known for, some pairs can be detached so that you can wear the stones separately or together. There are also more simple pieces including studs made from opals (they are perfect for everyday!) Everything is made by hand and all the stones are unique, so each pair is one-of-a-kind.
Bridget has plans to expand the line and include more exotic stones moving forward. Best part is that you will be able to mix and match those with the current collection. I can't decide between the chrysoprase/grey moonstone or the brown sapphire/white opal combinations. Or maybe I should just get both?
Opal studs
Prices range from HK$5,800 to HK$12,000. The Brigetta trunk show is on Thursday May 9 from 11am to 3pm at Kee Club, 6/F, 32 Wellington Street, Central, Hong Kong. www.brigettajewellery.com
