LPA Photographers / Tim Atkins / Blakes Hotel
Tim Atkins has been busy recently setting up his very own photography studio in Stoke Newington! In between making sure this is fully stocked with everything a food photographer needs, including props and various backgrounds, he has also found time to shoot with long standing client Blakes Hotel. The brief here was to capture some of the dishes and cocktails from the new menu, various interiors and the people behind it all who work there!
The colours and cleanness of Tim's images are perfectly in keeping with the elegance and luxury of the hotel!
Beautiful work!

text: "Floating Snowflakes for Beginning String Orchestra" is a wonderful little Christmas piece which begins with an original melody written by Garth Williams. A combination of eighths,quarter, and half notes create a warm, singing melody which begins the piece. Once this melody has been established, the composer has added "The First Nowell" to happily finish the entire piece. Within the makeup of the piece, each section gets the opportunity to present the melody and then supports other sections who also are given the melody in turn. A great Christmas piece for young orchestra.

When you are ready, make sure to calm your fears and go at your own pace when reintroducing sexuality in your life. This can be hard to do for some people, but to make this transition easier I suggest focusing on pleasure instead of on a particular way of living your sexuality.

Exploring Taos: An Unforgettable Food-Focused New Mexico Adventure
Total Reading Time: 7 minutes
As much as we love living in Santa Fe - the history, the architecture, the mountainous backdrop, and especially, the food - we're pretty into Taos, too! The dramatic setting and quirky and diverse mix of people and cultures make it a favorite weekend getaway. If you are visiting New Mexico, we highly recommend spending at least two days in Taos. If you don't have at least two days, don't worry! Taos makes a great day trip from Santa Fe.
The beauty of the drive to Taos, like many drives in New Mexico, makes the journey half the fun. While the famous High Road is undeniably scenic, we equally enjoy the Low Road (NM 68) which hugs the Rio Grande for much of the route, passes through green valleys, and drops you into Taos with jaw-dropping views of the Taos Gorge in the foreground and the Sangre de Cristos looming in the distance.
And because we love to eat, we often plan the drive - and our time in Taos - around stops at some our favorite eating and drinking establishments. Here are our recommendations for where to eat and drink along the way and in town.
Where To Eat & Drink Along The Way
Rancho de Chimayo: A Northern New Mexico institution. If you leave Santa Fe hungry and are craving chile, a stop at Rancho de Chimayo is a must. This place is an institution. It was established in 1965 by the Jaramillo family, whose family history in the area dates to the late 1600s. In 2016, the restaurant received a James Beard Foundation America's Classics Award, which recognizes America's diverse culinary heritage. Since it was founded, Rancho de Chimayo has continued to serve up some of the area's best and most traditional New Mexican food. The portions are big, the prices are reasonable, and the chile is hot. You can't go wrong here - but a stuffed sopaipilla with beef or chicken and your choice of red or green chile (we like Christmas!) is always satisfying.
If you have some extra time, make sure to visit the nearby Santuario de Chimayo, a famous Catholic pilgrimage site centered around an abode church from 1816. Pilgrims from near and far come for the holy dirt, gathered from the surrounding red hills, that is said to cure many ailments.
Homestyle cooking and wine tasting in Dixon. Continuing north on NM 68, you'll reach the farming community of Dixon, which is worth a stop to eat at Zuly's Café, which serves up homey New Mexican fare, as well as an eclectic mix of salads, soups, burgers, and a changing list of specials. Both the red and green chile are excellent. If it's a nice day, grab a seat on their tree-shaded patio and linger over a cold drink (they serve beer and wine).
Another reason to make a stop in Dixon is the wine. Yes, this is (one of) New Mexico's wine-growing regions, and there are several wineries in and around Dixon where you can taste. Black Mesa, La Chiripada and Vivác are all within minutes of each other and all are worth a stop. Check out our post on wine tasting in the area for more details.
Continuing up the low road to Taos, you'll hug the Rio Grande, hemmed in by rocky bluffs. It's beautiful any time of year, but especially in the autumn, when the cottonwoods turn a brilliant yellow. As you approach Taos, the landscape suddenly opens up, and you'll get a glimpse of Taos Gorge off to your left, which makes a dramatic gash through the landscape.
Where To Eat & Drink In Taos
The Love Apple: Creative, inspired regional dining. Of the many great meals we've eaten in New Mexico, the Love Apple is one of the most memorable. The location alone stands out - the restaurant is housed in a 100 year-old adobe church building. The simple, whitewashed interior is cozy and candlelit, which gives the space a seriously romantic feel.
The food, New American with local influences, relies heavily on ingredients from nearby farms. The chefs create familiar dishes with unusual twists, like grilled ruby rainbow trout with quinoa-pinon fritter and cilantro lime relish, or wild quail stuffed with green chile, feta, and quinoa. This is the place to come for a special occasion.
Orlando's: A colorful local favorite. If you can't get enough chile, Orlando's is the place to go. Located just north of town, its popularity is evidenced by its perennially full parking lot. Try "Los Colores," which features three blue corn enchiladas (chicken with green chile, beef with red chile, and cheese with chile caribe), along with beans and posole. It's a great way to sample three different and delicious variations on a classic New Mexican enchilada. Or try the shrimp - not traditionally New Mexican, of course, but cooked to perfection in blue corn enchilada.
Chokola: Bean to bar chocolate treats. For dessert (or anytime, really), a visit to Chokola is a must. This isn't just the best chocolate we've had in New Mexico, but probably the best we've had anywhere. It's a "bean to bar" chocolate maker, which means that they produce chocolate from whole cocoa beans in-house (most chocolate makers buy pre-made chocolate from other manufacturers, and then melt it down and add flavoring). The café - a beautifully designed space located just off Taos plaza - always smells heavenly. It can be pretty hard to decide which of the incredible looking chocolate delicacies to choose. Luckily, the friendly staff is always willing to provide explanations and samples. We usually get the tasting trio, which offers the opportunity to choose three different concoctions, such as mousse (flavors like lemon ginger and coffee), drinking chocolate with cinnamon and chili, and truffles (the goat cheese is addictive). Chokola is also a great place to pick up edible gifts or souvenirs to take home.
Taos Mesa Brewing: Beer, tacos, and live music at the Mothership. To cap off your Taos adventure, head to Taos Mesa Brewing for local brews and live music. They have two locations - the so-called "Mothership" on the namesake mesa, and a taproom in town. The Mothership hosts live music most nights and attracts a diverse range of great bands - from bluegrass to funk to country western to West African. TMB's commitment to sustainability can be seen in their use of locally grown hops, as well as the brewery itself, which uses passive solar to heat the building and water for brewing, and draws heavily on reclaimed and refurbished materials. Apart from the excellent beer, they also serve creative bar food like smoked pork mole tacos and nachos with cheddar ale sauce.
The Details
What to know:
The low road to Taos (Route 285 to Route 68) takes approximately an hour and a half, with no stops. You'll want to leave plenty of time for food & wine stops, not to mention photo stops!

Still holding out hope that he will return to the field this season, Kansas City Chiefs running back Priest Holmes will meet later this week with a neurosurgeon in Miami for another evaluation of the severe head and neck trauma that has sidelined him for more than a year.
The consultation comes as the clock is winding down on Holmes' chances for playing at all in the 2006 season.
Holmes, 33, has been on the NFL's physically unable to perform list (PUP) since August. While the Chiefs have until the 12th week of the season to activate him, league rules stipulate that any player on the PUP list must begin practicing by Nov. 7, next Tuesday, to be eligible to return for this season.
Once a player returns to practice, his team has a three-week window in which to evaluate him. After the three weeks, the player must be activated or remain on the physically unable to perform list. With time running out, and Holmes still not cleared to play, the likelihood of his return, at least this season, appears remote.
Yet team president Carl Peterson told the Kansas City Star that he is not yet ready to count Holmes out for this year.
"I've said it a hundred times before -- there were a lot of media and a lot of fans who said he would never play football again after he had his hip surgery [in 2004]. And he came back."
Peterson said the team will make an announcement on Holmes' status after his examination.
Holmes has spent the season at his hometown of San Antonio, away from the team, so that he would not be a distraction. There have been disparate reports over the first two months of the season about the state of his conditioning and his workout regiment. He has not played since suffering severe neck and head trauma in a head-to-head collision with San Diego linebacker Shawne Merriman last Oct. 30.
It appears that Holmes, who has appeared in only 15 games over the last two seasons, first because of a career-threatening hip injury in 2004 and then last year's head-and-neck trauma, is prepared to abide by the various specialists' verdict on his football future. For the most part, he has been treated by Dr. Robert Watkins, a renowned Los Angeles-based specialist.
Watkins has cautioned Holmes about the potential long-term ramifications of another back or neck injury.
In his first three seasons in Kansas City (2001-03), after signing as an unrestricted free agent, Holmes averaged 1,530 yards and 18.7 rushing touchdowns. In the past two seasons, though the nine-year veteran totaled 1,343 yards and 20 touchdowns, appearing in only 15 games. In 2005, he ran for only 451 yards, his lowest output since his 1997 rookie season in Baltimore.
One of the game's top all-around tailbacks before injuries took their toll, Holmes has carried 1,734 times for 8,035 yards and 86 touchdowns in 109 games. He also has 334 receptions for 2,945 yards and eight touchdowns.

As worldwide coal consumption continues to rise, efforts to keep global warming below the 2 degrees Celsius warming threshold will very likely fail, warns environmental research group Worldwatch Institute in a new analysis of coal data.
Global coal consumption rose 3 percent from 2012 to 2013, reaching over 3,800 million tons of oil equivalent (mtoe) in 2013, according to numbers provided to Worldwatch by BP.
Further troubling, according to the analysis, is that the world's coal supply is getting "dirtier" as continued demand and lower prices create markets for coal with lower energy content. For example, in 2012, "the average heat content of coal produced in the United States was about 23.4 megajoules per kilogram (MJ/kg), down from 29.17 MJ/kg in 2005," the group notes.
"This means that more and more coal needs to be burned to generate the same amount of heat for a desired electricity output."
And according to the Worldwatch analysis, emerging economies, such as China and India, are the primary drivers of increasing coal consumption. Coal demand in China has almost tripled since 2000, notes the group, rising from 683.5 mtoe at the turn of the century to 1,933.1 mtoe in 2013—more than half of the global figure.

Independent News and Views Putting People Over Profit
In contrast, the United States has decreased its coal use while becoming increasingly reliant on domestic oil and natural gas production. In 2013, the U.S. consumed 455.7 mtoe of coal. However, despite efforts to reduce its own carbon emissions, recent studies have shown that the U.S. continues to export coal and its related pollution to other countries. According to an Associated Press analysis published this summer, in 2012, about 9 percent of worldwide coal exports originated in the U.S.
Coal consumption in the European Union has also followed a downward trend in recent years, which the analysis attributes to "the EU's flat overall energy consumption since 1990" and an increasing shift towards renewables driven largely by policy and financial incentives.
Although the report acknowledges that the pace of growth for coal use is slowing, researchers warn that the trend will likely come too late in the face of international climate inaction.
"If coal consumption continues to increase and no meaningful binding multilateral agreements on climate change are made, attempts to combat global climate change will likely fail," writes Christoph von Friedeburg, a research fellow at the Worldwatch Institute. "One source of hope is that the combination of decreasing energy intensity and declining costs of renewables will cause coal's share to keep shrinking and stop the global rise in the use of the dirtiest energy source."

Downton Abbey executive producer dismisses show ending speculation
Story by Jack Foley
GARETH Neame, executive producer of hit period drama Downton Abbey, has moved to end speculation that the end of the show is in any way imminent.
Responding to comments made by series creator Julian Fellowes in an interview with The Wall Street Journal in which he suggested that season five could well be its last, Neame said that nothing could be further from the truth.
Downton Abbey continues to be a massive ratings hit for ITV in the UK, while in the US the season four premiere attracted a record average audience of 10.2 million.
Neame, who is managing director of the show's production company Carnival Films, issued a statement to put the record straight and clarify any confusion caused by Fellowes' comments, or their subsequent reporting.
The statement read: "I can confirm that there are no plans to end the show after the fifth series. ITV commission each series on a year-by-year basis.
"In an interview given to The Wall Street Journal, Julian Fellowes stated that the show would not go on forever (inevitable of course and something both he and I have been on the record for previously). For now, ITV has commissioned series five and that is what we are busy preparing."
For the record, those Fellowes comments were: "I don't know yet if there is a season six, but it's not going to go on forever. It won't be Perry Mason."
His comments came in relation to being asked about the American drama, The Gilded Age, which he is also intending to write, and to which he declared that it would be impossible for him to work on both.
"It's for NBC Universal and it will happen when Downton finishes because I just couldn't do both at once," he said.

Originally posted on: Curvy, Confident, & Nervous as Hell
It was Thursday morning, and as usual Mrs. Vazquez pulled me out of my 2nd grade classroom to have a "chit chat". Honestly, I would have rather been doing my math assignment. I fidgeted with the ruffles on my blouse tugging on my sleeves hoping she didn't notice the cut marks on my wrist. I had just lost my oldest sister the Christmas before and at that age I didn't understand death or how the family dynamic would be impacted forever. She asked a bunch of questions, no my dad is not back at home, yes he does stop by. They argue, and fight sometimes he might force his way into the house, and mommy would always call the police. Yes I am sad about my sister dying (duh lady). Can I go back to class now?
Her kind eyes always looked sad knowing she wouldn't get much out of me, but I was not one to ever over share my family's business. As time passed, I suppressed much of my past in order to heal I suppose, attempting to erase memories by being involved in so many activities. Dance, acting, choir, volleyball, soccer, marching band, even tried out for basketball ( as if they would even let me be a manager)
Fast forward to college, it was like my past was haunting me. I started going to counseling on campus. Of course no one wants to tell their friends they're seeing a shrink, but I needed to know why these negative thoughts were back. For once I was one of the cool kids, liked, respected, and a party wasn't a party unless I was there. Ask about me, even now! Something was still not quite right.
2013 was a year of great loss. My college roommate suddenly passed away and I drew closer and closer to alcohol and prescription drugs to ease the hurt. Three years later my dad passed away, I had not yet healed from either so I began seeing a therapist on a regular basis. My doctors all agreed it was time for me to be medicated for my condition. I wasn't sleeping, having night terrors, totally alienated myself from everything I loved. I couldn't face the world feeling this way. I began the medication and I had trouble adjusting. My sleep patterns were inconsistent so I was given Ambien, and an anti-anxiety/anti-depressant. I felt sick all the time, never wanted to go out, and no one really knew what I was going through. This was not a conversation I was wiling to have with many people. I'm the person who you will invite out, I'll think about it, say yes and then won't come. Sometimes leaving the house was too much, not having control is too much to bear when you're over anxious. My own mother wasn't even aware because I live a very private life.
I was on spring break this April when I had an anxiety attack while driving on the highway. I came home took my meds, and on the couch I stayed for 4 days. I felt like my body was holding me hostage. I was unable to get off the couch, phone calls went unanswered, and I definitely did not go outside. It was during that time I realized I was becoming addicted to being numb. It was in that moment I decided to no longer take any medication to treat my anxiety. My sleeping pills were the remedy to everything, and I can't lie, I miss being able to fall asleep in a dizzy state knowing I wouldn't hear or feel anything once I took them. Saying goodbye to them was like ending an abusive relationship. Mental health in the African American community is still seen as taboo. How is that possible when 6.8 million people that identify as African American suffer from some form of mental illness?? Here's my theory, as slaves we were strong, tolerant, and able to withstand the greatest pain that another human could inflict on another. Our mental health/self care was almost non existent. We were seen as animals who did not have the ability to think and feel per our Caucasian masters. Maybe this is why we try to hide what hurts us. Just my thoughts. I decided to put down the pills and embrace the practice of guided meditation, and daily exercise instead. It is difficult at times but I can do this. I looked in the mirror and decided I was worth fighting for. So to all my anxious friends take it one day at a time. Don't be afraid to speak your truth.
I refuse to let the "help" kill me

Microbial pathogens kill millions of people world-wide every year, and the rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) or "drug resistant infections" is of huge concern to global health. Due to AMR, we might soon run out of treatment options for many deadly human pathogens. In addition to bacteria, fungi are a key component of this problem, causing devastating human infections that lead to an estimated 1.5 million deaths annually. Although we tend to underestimate their burden on human health, fungi kill almost as many people as tuberculosis, and many more than malaria. Additionally, particularly in hospital settings, fungi and bacteria join forces in mounting 'polymicrobial' infections, which are difficult to treat. The most vulnerable patients, such as those affected by cancer or HIV, are particularly susceptible to life-threatening fungal diseases.
We study the clinically important fungal pathogen Candida albicans, which affects a large proportion of the population by causing both superficial and invasive infections. Diagnosis and treatment of fungal infections remains very challenging, and life-threatening infections with Candida can have an astonishing mortality of 40% even with treatment. Therefore, development of innovative approaches to combat infections is desperately needed.
The projects in the lab focus on this important problem in three ways:
1. We aim to understand host-pathogen interactions in innate immune responses.
2. We study gene-regulatory programs that control microbial pathogenicity.
3. We characterise compounds with novel mechanisms of antimicrobial activity and/or improved efficacy.
To study these problems and uncover novel mechanisms, we are using an interdisciplinary approach, combining molecular cell biology with imaging, virulence studies in animal models of infection and the "omics" approaches of Systems Biology. We collaborate broadly with colleagues in the Biomedicine Discovery Institute at Monash University, as well as groups with Australia and internationally.
Opportunities to join the lab

Ginger&Browns is Launched
Josh Beeston
Our first week has gone quickly!
Our Launch Day went relatively smoothly, the till system was intuitive, the shop looked great, and there was prosecco and cake all round. Family and friends from all corners of the UK arrived, which was really supportive of them, but equally it felt strange for friends from one social circle to meet old work colleagues and family.
We've had an amazing amount of positive comments, and some really helpful feedback which we can act on in due course! We had no idea what would be popular, but despite it being Easter, rabbit ear dog chews were easily our best seller! We will be looking to increase and refine our products over the coming weeks, and we have already had to put in a new order for our hand made tweed collars, and tomorrow we are meeting with a local lady from Cheshire to add some different colours to our tweed range!

You've made it! This TechRadar broadband deals guide marks the spot if the treasure you seek is the best value internet deals in the UK today. Pop your postcode into the price comparison above and use the handy set of filters to narrow down the perfect plan for you - it literally takes less than a minute to compare the UK's best broadband deals. Alternatively, you can see our handpicked favourites for fibre (if you can get it), broadband and TV packages and cheap broadband only plans that are really impressing us this month all below.
For example, you can get Superfast BT broadband for under £30 per month, with its fibre broadband plus £100 pre-paid Mastercard - that's better than it was on Black Friday! And if fibre is indeed your flavour, we like the look of Plusnet at the moment as well, with its sub-£25 bills and chunky cashback.
And if you're undecided as to what kind of broadband deal you need, then keep reading for some handy buying advice. Do you need superfast fibre broadband? Should you go for a cheap broadband only deal for less than £20 per month, or add TV and phone plans to your internet package? There are dozens upon dozens of combinations to pick from, with providers such as Virgin Media, Sky and TalkTalk all fighting for your business.

Fibre broadband deals: top 3 in the UK this month (subject to availability at your postcode)
Cheap broadband only deals: our top 3 affordable tariffs
Broadband and TV deals: top 3 in the UK
Can I order these broadband deals over the phone?
We understand that buying broadband is a big purchase that you're going to be committed to for at least a year. If you feel more comfortable ordering over the phone, we can offer a call centre service - but only for a selected few providers:
- BT broadband: 08000-142-334
- Sky broadband: 08000-142-334
- Virgin broadband: 0808-281-2998
- TalkTalk broadband: 08000-492-103
What broadband speed do I need?
Super fast fibre broadband deals may sound appetising, but they may not be necessary for your home - especially if you want to cut costs. It could be worth considering slower, cheaper ADSL internet instead.
Broadband speeds are represented in megabits per second, or Mb. Crudely speaking, the more Mbs, the faster the broadband speed. But remember that the advertised speed is the 'average' (more on which below) and doesn't necessarily represent the actual speed you'll end up getting. That varies depending where you live.
0-12Mb This entry-level broadband speed is transmitted via an ADSL connection to your nearest BT exchange. The equivalent to just over 1MB per second, It should be fast enough for small households where only one or two people are using the internet at once. Be aware that if you stream TV, you may experience the odd interruption.
25-50Mb Where Virgin led the way, the rest followed. Now every big provider offers rapid fibre broadband. This is the sweet spot between fast speeds and good value and just the ticket for a family household where four or five members are all streaming, downloading and surfing at once.
50+Mb If you stream 4K TV or have loads of people trying to use your broadband connection at once, then it may be worth shelling out for the extra speed. It may cost you more, but you're pretty much guaranteed lag-free use - plus, the providers often sweeten the deal with added extras and rewards.
What is 'average' speed for broadband?
Since May 2018, the Advertising Standards Authority changed the requirements for how internet providers promote the speed of their service. Instead of 'up to' speeds, they must now give an 'average'.
For these purposes, average means the speed in Mb received by over 50% of their users between the peak usage hours of 8pm and 10pm in the UK. You're not guaranteed that speed though, so double check with the provider exactly what their minimum speed provisions are.
Is fibre broadband available in my area?
There's one very easy way to find out...scroll to the top of this page and input your postcode. We'll tell you straight away whether you can get fast fibre broadband - alternatively head over to our best fibre broadband deals guide for all your options and some handy buying advice.
Roughly speaking, 90% of UK homes now have the option of connecting to fibre broadband. But if you have your heart on Virgin Media fibre optic broadband, it's more like around 60%.
What contract length should I go for?
Most broadband providers lock you in for at least 12 months, with one year plans being by far the most common. That said, perhaps taking their cue from mobile phone contracts, we are now seeing some providers experimenting with longer plans, with 18 month contracts rearing their heads.
On the opposite side of the spectrum, some providers now offer short term rolling contracts. Virgin Media, for example, have 30 day plans for commitment-phobes. The downside is you'll be expected to play a larger setup fee.
When your contract comes to an end, be prepared for your monthly tariff to be hiked - especially if you were lucky enough to get a great introductory offer at the outset.
Will I have to pay anything upfront for broadband?
Possibly. Sometimes known as 'setup', 'upfront' or 'activation' fees, most of the major broadband providers ask for at least some payment when you kick off your contract, even if it's just to cover the cost of delivering your new router. The amount usually depends on what level of package you go for, but it will likely be somewhere between £10 and £60.
But plenty of providers now bucks the old trend and have scrapped their activation fee completely (TalkTalk for example), while others run frequent promotions where they temporarily scrap their upfront cost.
There may be other added extras, too, however. If you take a broadband and TV package, you might be charged for the TV set-top box - that could be totally worth it if you don't already have a device to pause and record live TV.
Do I have to pay more to have a phone line?
If you still use a home landline to make and receive calls, you're in luck - many broadband plans don't just feature a landline, but they actually include it in your monthly price.
You will have to start paying more though when you have a personalised call plan. You'll see your standard monthly bill begin to escalate when you start adding unlimited evening, daytime or international calls to the mix.

Transfer news: Atletico Madrid confident Diego Costa and Koke will remain
Atletico Madrid insist that star names Diego Costa and Koke will not be departing for England this month.
By Francisco Acedo
Last Updated: 06/01/14 1:46pm
Brazilian-born striker Costa, currently the top scorer in La Liga, signed a new long-term deal in August - but his form this season has meant clubs are continuing to look at him.
Reports in England have claimed that Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United are all contemplating paying his buy-out clause of 38million euros, which currently equates to over £31million.
"The player has a clause of 38 millions euros and the big clubs in England know this," he is quoted by Marca.
"Diego Costa has matured and is smart when it comes to decision making.
"Right now, Costa does not think of leaving, he is hooked on Atletico. He has re-signed a deal that is important, I am confident he will continue with us."
Recent weeks have also suggested that United are preparing a move for their midfield starlet Koke.
But again, Caminero is confident that the 21-year-old, who like Costa is contracted to the club until 2018, has no intentions of leaving the Vicente Calderon.
"I'm not surprised with this subject," Caminero responded, when asked about United's interest.
"He is a player who has improved considerably. It has also made it into the Spain squad and that puts you in the spotlight and opens more eyes.
"Koke will be with us for many years. I am convinced," he concluded.

She describes herself as a "giant", and rides bikes on the freeways for the JMPD special patrols.
Mazibuko is well-known in the force and often other officers call on her to help with arrests.
"I am so tall that I stand way above most motorists who get caught. Very few give me problems when I try to arrest them, even the drunk and aggressive ones. I always get my own way," she says.
Mazibuko, who started riding bikes for the JMPD in 2003, says she loves the motorbikes.
"We started with 20 females on the motorbike squad, but I am the only one left. The others found bikes too big to handle. Now I can out-ride any officer on a bike," she adds.
Her only injury has been a small fall from a bike during which she broke her wrist.
The mother of two has worked in several Joburg metro departments through the years, including internal affairs, but loves her job as a freeway patrol officer.
"I am a bit of a daredevil. I love the adrenalin rush."
She has had to contend daily with male motorists, taxi drivers and motorists hurling insults at her but says she is "very strict".
"I think I command respect because of my size - I am a giant and I am not easily intimidated. I get used to the insults and don't let them get to me."
Mazibuko was born and bred in Meadowlands, Soweto. Her father was a police officer. When she joined the metro police, her mom was not happy, "but the family is now used to it".
She says her two boys, aged 15 and 11, are proud of her and often boast about her to their friends.
"But I don't want them to follow in my footsteps - it is hard work out there," she said.

They are young, full of promise and just starting out. Thanks to a government initiative, they are gaining entry to attractive workplaces as apprentices. James Walkington, 19, is one of them.
The government initiative aims to bring more young people into the labour market, and LKAB Minerals in England has begun to recruit apprentices. They work as lab technicians, electrical engineers, welders/fitters and in sales.
The apprenticeship system is backed by HETA (the Humberside Engineering Training Association). Under the guidance of experienced mentors, the apprentices receive practical training in the workplace as well external tuition, one day a week in local colleges, towards their vocational qualification,.
"We see several advantages with the apprenticeship system. Young people are offered a way into working life, and the programme helps us in the process of succession planning," says Kathy Walker, HR manager for LKAB Minerals in England.
HETA is active in three locations in the Humber region and trains more than 200 Level 3 Advanced Apprentices in 190 companies, among them, LKAB Minerals. Thanks to funding via the Skills Funding Agency, they are able to offer trainee positions in local companies, thereby bridging the gap between industry and education. In 2012 HETA received funding from North Lincolnshire Council. This helped to sponsor several placements in local companies such as LKAB, where the young people are able to continue their training and complete the apprenticeship programme.19-year-old James Walkington is doing an apprenticeship in electrical engineering at LKAB Minerals. This is a three-year apprenticeship programme. James has just completed his first year.
Electrical engineering
"In the first year, we gained a theoretical understanding and did practical exercises to test the principles we had learned during the theory lessons. Over the next two years I will be able to apply the knowledge and skills that I have acquired during my first year. At the same time, I will learn new electrical engineering applications at LKAB Minerals," explains James Walkington.
How did you become an apprentice at LKAB Minerals?
"HETA contacted LKAB to enquire about possible vacancies for apprentices. LKAB Minerals chose me from among 15 applicants," says James Walkington.
Since joining the company, James has had many unique learning opportunities.
"For example, I have designed a control circuit for the dust extraction systems. Currently, I am looking into ways of lowering the carbon footprint here at the site in Flixborough by using more efficient lighting systems that use less energy but still produce the same intensity," says James Walkington.
The study programme will qualify James for a Higher National Certificate in Electrical Engineering. Eventually, studies will also lead to a more independent role in the electrical engineering department at LKAB Minerals.
"So far, I have thoroughly enjoyed my experiences here at LKAB. I have had the chance to work on bespoke pieces of equipment, which has been a unique experience. And thanks to my mentor, Nick Czabaniuk, I have been able to learn a great deal about the application of electrical power within the minerals industry."

Are There Any Healthy Muffins and Cupcakes For Kids?
Healthy Muffins and Cupcakes For Your Kids
( recipes below)
It was supposedly Marie Antoinette who uttered the words, "Let them eat cake," but what if that cake is laden with sugar and calories? After all, muffins and cupcakes are hardly a health food, so maybe Antoinette should have said "Let them eat cake during special occasions and weekends" instead.
Lucky for her, cupcake and muffin recipes have come a long way from their calorie-rich predecessors. With so many healthy swaps and ingredients available, you can work muffins and cupcakes into your daily menu without worrying about their unhealthy reputation.
Healthier Fare
It's usually the butter, sugar and flour in your favorite sweet breads that leave you worried about what they'll do to your hips. By swapping out some of those unhealthy ingredients, it's possible to nosh on a muffin without feeling the post-dessert guilt. It makes sense our society has caused a recent surge toward healthier goods, pushing for gluten-free, sugar-free, low-carb sweets while still retaining the same flavors. It may sound like a catch-22, but it's possible to have your cake and eat it to, even when you're watching your diet.
The Pinterest Generation
Before the rise of online pin boards and recipe sites, there may have been less access to healthy fare replacing sweet treats. But thanks to the rise of sites like Pinterest in 2013, 2014 looks to be another year filled with idea sharing and swapping, which can mean healthier foods. By now, we know that there's always another recipe or ingredient to use to make all-time favorites a healthier choice, which means more and more people are searching for ways to indulge without ruining a specific kind of diet. It's the best of both worlds and readily available.
Have Your Cake
Not all cupcakes can be made into healthier foods with a few ingredient swaps. In fact, you might still want to indulge in a sweet frosting-topped vanilla cupcake every now and again. But if you are completely head over heels for cupcakes and muffins, finding healthier ways to mix them up can help save you calories while you still indulge. Just remember that while healthier recipes may lower the sugar, fat and caloric values for a muffin, they're not a substitute for more natural foods. Fruits, veggies and grains should still take center stage in your diet, with treats playing a supporting role every so often. Instead of store-bought frosting, use this Greek yogurt frosting:
· 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt
· 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
· ½ cup of sifted, powdered sugar
Simply whisk the ingredients and place it in the fridge for 30 minutes so that it thickens a bit more before you put in on top of the cupcakes.
Sweet Eats
Some of the ingredients that you can swap out for healthier fare include using unsweetened applesauce in the place of sugar or dark chocolate in place of milk chocolate. Raisins can be subbed for chocolate chips, while adding a scoop of flax seed to your usual recipe can increase your omega 3 fatty acid intake, making a muffin or cupcake really work for you instead of against you. With this information, you can plan your own healthy cupcake and muffin recipes by adapting those you already have or even doing some kitchen alchemy and creating a recipe entirely from scratch. Or, if you're pressed for time, consider using a box mix just sub in your own healthy ingredients in place of the oil.
Healthy Recipes
Whether you like something chocolaty and indulgent or you'd rather more of a breakfast food, there are plenty of recipes designed to let you eat cake in 2014 without doing damage to your New Year's resolutions. Some of our favorites include sumptuous Chocolate Banana Muffins, which use dark chocolate for a richer flavor without all the sugar, and naughty-but-nice Banana Butterscotch Muffins. Both types are sweetened with the natural sugars found in ripe bananas, so they require less refined sugar and become a much healthier treat. To make these delectable and healthy muffins, follow the recipe for the ingredients here:
Chocolate Banana Muffins
· 3 very ripe or overripe bananas (mash by hand or with a mixer)
· 125 ml vegetable oil
· 2 large eggs
· 100 grams soft light brown sugar
· 225 grams plain flour
· 3 tablespoons best-quality cocoa powder (sifted)
· 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
· Bake in the oven at 200C or 400F for 15-20 minutes.
Banana Butterscotch Muffins
· 3 very ripe bananas to mash by hand
· 125 ml vegetable oil
· 2 large eggs
· 250 grams plain flour
· 100 grams caster sugar
· ½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
· 1 teaspoon baking powder
· 150 grams butterscotch morsels (or chocolate)
· Bake in the oven at 200C or 400F for 20 minutes.
While not all of your favorite cupcake and muffin recipes lend themselves to adaptation and healthier ingredients, you can find some new favorites by searching for healthy recipes online. While you might be resistant at first, it could be the start of a new favorite or a way to revamp your old traditions. Doing so means you're finally able to have your cake and eat it too.

EDINBURG, Texas — Border patrol and union officials were able to provide full honors to one of their agents who was killed trying to protect his family from two criminal illegal aliens. The honors came after a two-year fight by Border Patrol union officials and leaders of Congress to have the agent's death classified as a line of duty death.
On August 3, 2014, U.S. Border Patrol Agent Javier "Harvey" Vega had been fishing with his parents, wife, and children in a fishing spot on the southern side of Willacy County when two illegal aliens attempted to rob them at gunpoint setting off a fierce firefight. The gun battle left Agent Vega mortally wounded Vega and injured his father, Breitbart Texas reported at the time.
The two aliens, originally from Matamoros but living in South Texas, had a lengthy criminal history with one of them having been deported four times. Vega died fighting off the attackers while telling his family to "keep shooting".
After Vega's death, officials with the National Border Patrol Council Local 3307 pushed to have Vega's death designated as a line of duty death. The line of duty classification would grant Vega the recognition of having made the ultimate sacrifice to protect his country. The designation would also provide the family with benefits to help them get through their time of need.
"We could not believe that they would turn their back on us," said Marie Vega as she recalled hearing that the agency would not classify her son's death as Line of Duty. "It was a great injustice … Its been a very long two years."
After two years of fighting and with the help of U.S. Senators John Cornyn (R-TX) and John McCain (R-AZ), along with U.S. Representative Filemon Vela (D-TX), in September 2016, the agency reversed its decision and classified Vega's death as a line of duty.
"This is something that was long overdue," said NBPC President Brian Judd. "This was a great injustice but with the help of everyone here it has been corrected."
This week, members of the Vega family, his colleagues and friends gathered at the headquarters of the NBPC Local 3307 to provide the full honors that Vega did not receive two years ago. In a solemn ceremony, members of the U.S. Border Patrol honor guard fired a 21-gun salute, played the bagpipes, had a helicopter fly over, and presented Vega's family with a folded U.S. flag.
"Sierra 252, Sierra 252," an agent called out on radio as part of a tradition where the agency retired Vega's radio call sign.
"When evil people sought to do harm, Harvey went straight toward the danger," said NBPC Local 3307 President Paul Perez who not only worked with Vega but was also his friend. "He was a true American hero … The Vega family lost a father, a husband and a son. The Border Patrol lost a brother. We lost a hero."
After the ceremony, Breitbart Texas spoke with NBPC officials about the dangers faced by agents on and off duty.
"When we speak out about lack of manpower or lack of equipment, this is what we are trying to prevent," said NBPC Local 3307 Vice President Chris Cabrera. "We are fighting to keep our guys safe."
Ildefonso Ortiz is an award winning journalist with Breitbart Texas. He co-founded the Cartel Chronicles project and you can follow him on Twitter and on Facebook.
DISCLOSURE: Breitbart News sponsors the National Border Patrol Council's radio program, The Green Line. Breitbart News previously covered the costs of a slain Border Patrol agent's funeral. The National Border Patrol Council endorsed Donald Trump for President after the candidate vowed to give veteran Border Patrol agents a voice in what is needed to properly secure the U.S.-Mexico border.

Anna & Jamie's Artistic & Urban Cool E-session in Philly
Anna is a fashion photographer and Jamie is a computer genius. They wanted an e-session that reflected their hip lifestyles and the result is an urban-cool shoot in the NoLibs, Philly area, the perfect backdrop for these two artistic souls.
We have Jennifer Baumann Photography to thank for the beautiful images and here she is with a few words about the session:
Anna and Jamie are so hip and they chose the Northern Liberties part of Philadelphia for their engagement session. I really loved how classic Anna looked with the urban background. We had an awesome time together and I feel that the playful love they have for each other shines through in these images.
Such a cute couple! And here we have the lovely (and talented, check out her photo work) Anna to tell us a little bit about the two of them:
Jamie is a Mac Genius and I am a fashion photographer. Northern Liberties is where we went on our first date. I Went to University of the Arts in Philly and have been here ever since. Jamie grew up outside of Philly and we still reside here. We met 7 years ago this June and have been together ever since….
About their e-session and how it defined the two of them:
We aren't traditional and I love the feeling of Philly particularly the vibe of Northern Liberties and Fishtown. I spent many years in those sections of Philly. When we were looking into places to have our engagement session we wanted something that had meaning for us. Something that showed our personality. We definitely didn't want to go to the middle of a field, so not us. Northern Liberties has tons of personality both rough and refined. My favorite is definitely walking down the street and seeing all the amazing graffiti art.
Thank you Jennifer for sending this super cool e-session my way, and congratulations Anna and Jamie! Have fun with the wedding planning. 🙂

I've decided to update my blog and make it more focused on a certain style. I am just about to start a new job where the dress code is black and white and this has made me realise that this is the colour scheme I need to focus on with my blog. I've taken inspiration from a blog by Becca Haf which is very minimalistic but very chic and I'm obsessed with it 😆
So here goes the new style, this outfit above was put together using just clothing from MANGO (as its my favourite shop to buy from) and it's very minimal and black+white, I love it.
Hope you like it x
