When the topic about Brooklyn's longest streets comes up (and admittedly, that's once in a blue moon) Flatbush, Atlantic, Bedford Avenues and Fulton Street come up most often. But there are a group of streets that run from the waterfront at Buttermilk Channel all the way east to Brownsville, running through Cobble Hill, Boerum Hill, Park Slope, Lefferts Gardens, and Crown Heights: Union, President and Carroll. The latter is named for Charles Carroll of Maryland, the only Roman Catholic to sign the Declaration of Independence, and Carroll's presence here in the atlas is quite deliberate. A regiment of 400 Maryland troops, under Lord Stirling, assisted American patriots in a strategic retreat from British forces who vastly outnumbered them in the Battle of Brooklyn.
Though I do intend to further explore these three extarordinarily long streets in detail sometime, today I want to focus on one particular block of Carroll, the "700" block between 6th and 7th Avenues. (You may think the 700 block would be between 7th and 8th Avenues, but the numbers are skewed here because Carroll begins so far west). It is bookended by two beautiful churches. The first one, St. Francis Xavier on the corner of 6th, is fittingly Roman Catholic.
Francis Morrone, who wrote The Architectural Guide to Brooklyn in 2001, says the church was built by architect Charles Haughton (a protege of NYC's greatest church builder, Patrick Keely) from 1900-1904, and so we must assume that the 1886 date we find on one of the stones refers to, perhaps, an original St. Francis Xavier parish church that predated this one. The church's website bears this out, though it's unclear if there was an earlier building. When Catholic parishes are established, they can be without a church building and Masses can be read in local homes until a suitable church can be erected.
It is a bright, beautiful building (though, perhaps, always in the shadow of the much larger St. Augustine's up the block on Sterling Place) with granite ashlar walls and intricately carved, ogee-curved doors and windows.
I shot the Francis Xavier parish school a block over on President. I wanted to see how the stonecarvers did the "X", since that letter doesn't get much play in ecclesiastical typesetting. They didn't disappoint, and the A is even better. (I like to look at old missals and prayerbooks — printed before the 1950s or so. They always went nuts with this kind of font.)
Christian imagery abounds on this block, even on the non-ecclesiastical buildings. Across the street from Francis Xavier is what probably used to be a stable. Above the door is a carving of a man fording a stream with a child on his back. For those of you unfamiliar with he image, it depicts the story of St. Christopher, who according to tradition, once carried Christ as a child across a river:
While there may have been a 3rd century Greek martyr named Christopher, the story told of him is now generally acknowledged to be a 12th century addendum to the Christian canon. Christopher is typically depicted as a tall, middle-aged, bearded man with a staff who wades across a river carrying the Christ child on his shoulders. As the story goes, the extremely robust Christopher devoted his life to carrying people across an otherwise unfordable stream. One day a little child appeared before him and asked to be carried across.
To Christopher's surprise, as he forded the river, the child steadily increased in weight until Christopher found his tiny burden so heavy that it was almost impossible to bear. When he asked the holy babe why he weighed so much, the child replied that he carried the world's sins upon his shoulders. As a reward for his service, Christopher's staff was miraculously transformed into a living tree, and Christopher himself became the Patron Saint of travellers. luckymojo
Stories that hark back to a pagan past predating Christianity surround Christopher; some accounts have him 12 cubits (18 feet) tall, and others paint him as a dog-headed cannibal in his youth. wikipedia
Berkeley Carroll School, 701 Carroll, one of the more prestigious independent grade schools in NYC.
…the school can trace its origins to 1883, the year that the Brooklyn Bridge was opened, and to a series of informal classes held by the Rev. Alfred C. Roe for neighborhood children in a'double villa' on Lincoln Place. In the fall of 1885, Mr. Roe, discouraged by his struggle against financial odds, asked a group of public-spirited men if they would assume financial oversight of the school, and a year later the Berkeley Institute, named for Bishop George Berkeley, an Irishman who was an early supporter of higher education in the American colonies, opened its doors to 55 children. At the time, much of Brooklyn was still farmland, but Park Slope had emerged as a fine residential neighborhood, easily accessible by five street car lines, so "the expense and annoyances of travel in crowded horse cars can be avoided," in the words of the school's first brochure. Berkeley Carroll School
Nearby Berkeley Place is also named for the bishop, as well as Berkeley, California and the University of Cailfornia at Berkeley.
At the 7th Avenue end, we have the white limestone-faced Old First Reformed Church, completed in 1891 by architect George L. Morse. It's a flying buttressed, gabled, cinquefoiled, rose-windowed centerpiece of Park Slope's busiest avenue.
The First Reformed Church of Brooklyn dates back to 1654 with the arrival of Domine Johannes Theodorus Polhemus [a nearby short street is named for him], who served the people of Breukelen, Flatbush, and Flatlands. Worship was conducted under the trees, then in a barn. In 1666, the first church edifice was built in the town of Breukelen in the middle of a highway, now known as Fulton Street.
This building was replaced 100 years later and included a burial ground on land which is now occupied by Macy's [the old A&S]. The growth of the church by 1805 necessitated large facilities, and a building was erected on Joralemon Street. Within 30 years, this building was outgrown. It was razed and rebuilt on the same site in 1835. It remained in that location until 1886, when a chapel was completed at Seventh Avenue and Carroll Street. This chapel was expected to accommodate the congregation for some years to come, but the rapid growth of the neighborhood was reflected in increasing membership for Old First, and plans to complete the sanctuary were pushed forward. The church, at Seventh Avenue and Carroll Street, as it stands today, was dedicated on September 27, 1891. Old First

Newsletter, November 2003
Welcome to new members: Megg Hewlett, Trish Bennett, Anita Robertson, Steve McGlone, and Brian McLean. We look forward to your company on many of the Club's tramps and at our clubnights.
UPCOMING EVENTS: (Note in your diary!)
On Monday, 1 December 2003, we have the Club's annual photo competition evening. So pull out all those tramping photos and start selecting, this is a fun competition (though seriously good photos) with some interesting prizes. There are four categories: Humour; People; Landscape; Nature. Members may enter as many photos as they like – no enlargements, just standard size please – just bring the photos along on the evening. Wine, juice and nibbles will be provided. Peter Wise will assist with organising the evening and, like last year, we will have the talented and entertaining (and unbiased!) Harold Mason as the judge. This is a really fun evening – don't miss it!
On Monday, 9 February 2004, Ken Ridley will give a talk and slide show on his visit to Nepal in April/May 2003. Ken did the famous Annapurna Circuit and also spent time in Kathmandu, so we look forward to photos of stunning scenery with massive mountains and valleys filled with rhododendrons (maybe!). And will Ken include an "ego photo" like last time?!
Many thanks to Ruth Hesselyn, Peter Wise, and Ian Pavitt for their informative and entertaining talk and slide show on their trip to Stewart Island. The trip all came about because Peter wanted to photograph the hills Gog and Magog – a good reason to spend three weeks of hard slog in Stewart Island's autumn weather (including a 3-day bush bash to cover a mere 10kms!). And will we ever forget Ruth's first slide: of Peter attempting to try on Ruth's tramping shorts?! Well, we were warned to expect just about anything….
Mr Howard Robinson of Motueka has kindly donated to us a Nelson Tramping Club badge dating back to the 1930's. Mr Robinson was one of the early members of our Club (the Club started in 1934) and was part of the teams which built the original John Tait Hut as well as the Harvey Bay Hut. Our thanks have been conveyed to
Mr Robinson (and also Ross Hall of the Motueka Tramping Club who initially liaised with Mr Robinson).
The Government recently announced additional DOC funding of $349m, to be spent over the next 10 years. DOC are holding a series of workshops to inform how they view this money should be spent as well as to get feedback from interested parties. Lein Jobse represented our Club at the St Arnaud workshop, and gave a quick rundown at the October clubnight of the huts/tracks DOC wishes to close or modify in our local area. Many thanks, Lein.
DOC's booklet "Towards a Better Network of Visitor Facilities", outlines their proposals. A few examples are:
Flora Hut, Mt Arthur area: options are complete removal, replacing with a shelter, replacing with a new hut nearby, significantly upgrade, or continue present maintenance (considered by DOC to be too expensive).
Hopeless Creek, St Arnaud area: cease maintenance on the track and minimal maintenance on the hut.
Beebys Knob Route, St Arnaud area: cease maintenance.
DOC's booklet is free and available from their offices. Get a copy and, if you care about a particular hut or track, make a submission to DOC, either via the Club or directly to DOC. Submissions must be received by DOC by
31 January 2004. The Club will make a submission – let us have your comments by the end of December 2003.
FMC have provided us with several copies of their publication "Freedom of the Hills: Unlocking High Country Recreation – An FMC Vision for Pastoral Lease Lands". The publication outlines the history of high country pastoral leases, their current status, and FMC's vision for how such land can be re-allocated for more appropriate uses. Copies are available via Peter Wise's shop – please read and return.
For members' information, following on from the prosecution of the organiser of Le Race, the Club has written to FMC requesting their advice as to whether the Club and/or trip leaders could be held legally responsible should a person on one of our tramps suffer injury. FMC advise that this issue is currently being considered by SPARC (Sport and Recreation NZ) and they shall advise us further.
We would like to be able to provide to members a list of all Club members with their contact address and phone number. Not only does this help trip leaders, but you may like to be able to contact each other! However, the Privacy Act requires us to gain written permission from individuals before we can publish their details. Included with this newsletter is a consent form for you to sign and return to us. Could you kindly do this as soon as possible.
Would those of you who have email access, kindly send an email to Lindsay Twiname at lindsayian @actrix.co.nz, so that we can pick up your email address. The committee would like to have as many email addresses for members as possible so that if there is information we urgently need to get to members, we can use this very quick electronic medium. Please note that emails will be sent in a manner such that members' email addresses will be kept confidential. For those who do not have email, don't worry, we will still use the phone and NZ Post!
Ever wanted to see the view from the top of Mt Everest? See http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap030831.html
for an awesome 360 degree photo. Apparently NASA have interesting "pictures of the day" loaded onto their website so keep an eye out for future good photos. Thanks to Carl Horn for this little gem.
Message from Shirley Gabrielsen: "Hi everyone, this is just to say a big thank you for the cards, flowers, visits and so much encouragement over the last few months because of my health. I hope to get the cobwebs out of my boots in January." (Look out folks, she'll probably be back fitter and faster!)
SUBSCRIPTIONS: Have you paid your subscription? Subscriptions were due 1 October 2003.
There is a new outdoor clothing company: Forty Three South Limited. They are a mail-order company, based in Christchurch, with "direct to the market" prices. A copy of their catalogue of jackets is at Peter Wise's shop. They have a current special for FMC members, being 10% off normal price plus a free set of polypro thermals.
Leki pole (or similar) – phone Gretchen, 545 1047.
The following two summer trips are offered, for "Fitness" people who will be available to depart at short notice as these trips are dependent on good weather.
Copland Pass - phone Ruth Hesselyn, 544 0570
West Coast side only, approximately 1 week some time between mid Jan-end Feb, totally weather dependent!
The idea is to camp by a tarn near the head of the stunning Copland valley and do a day trip to the Pass from there. Ice axe, crampons and tents needed. Costs ?
Manakau - phone Dan McGuire, 548 3458
This will be a 3 day trip to climb the highest peak (2,610m) in the Seaward Kaikouras. Costs: $40

KB ID 0001183 Dtd 11/05/16
Colleague: Server 21o2 R2, Where's Windows Security gone?
Me: Eh?
Colleague: Windows Security!
Me: What are you trying to do?
Colleague: I want to change my password and I can't send a Ctrl+Alt+Delete to the remote server.
Well I know that pressing Crtl+Alt+Delete would let you change you password like so;
I wasn't aware that in Server 2008 and earlier if you were connected via RDP you got a 'Windows Security' option that let you do the same, like so;
This is because if you press Ctrl+Alt+Delete it will execute on YOUR machine not the remote one. But this option is not included in Windows 2012 any more.
Well you can just normally use Ctrl+Alt+END while in an RDP session. But like me, my colleague was using a Mac and we don't have an END key!
Mac OSX Sent a Ctrl+Alt+END Sequence
If you're RDP connected from OSX then use Ctrl+Alt+Fn+Backspace
If you're RDP connected using a Mac Keyboard, or from a VM session on your Mac (i.e. from a VMware Fusion Windows Machine), then use Ctrl+Alt+Fn+Right-Arrow.
Other Solution
From within the RDP session, launch the on-screen keyboard, (Start > Run > osk). Then Press Ctrl+Alt on your physical keyboard, and click the delete key on the on-screen keyboard with your mouse cursor like so;
Server 2012 – I want the Windows Security Shortcut back!
Well if you still have older servers you can get a copy of the shortcut;
And copy it to the newer server
Or use the following VB shortcut.
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application") objShell.WindowsSecurity
Note: If you have a bunch of 2012 R2 RDP servers you wanted to roll this out to, you can set it up on your administrative account, capture your start menu to an XML file, and then distribute that start menu to all your users via group policy, (not available with server 2012 or earlier).

Kelly R.
Kampala, Uganda
After another adventurous weekend with our Global Justice crew, I was tempted to write about our time in Sipi Falls where we abseiled down a huge waterfall, hiked through slippery mud and rain through the foothills of Mt. Elgon, and drank steaming cups of delicious coffee after roasting and crushing the coffee beans. We are an adventurous group, and have really been maximizing our weekends in Uganda. But dear reader, I don't want to mislead you into believing that Global Justice in Uganda is all play and no work. I've been doing my fair share of both here. I'm also afraid that if I don't write today about my experience in the courts, then next week's Prison Project—a "life changing experience"—might eclipse my enthusiasm about this judicial internship.
Today began my sixth week of interning in the High Court of Uganda, Commercial Division. I'm in the Commercial Court with one other colleague, and the rest of our colleagues are placed in the High Court – Family Division, High Court – Criminal Division, Directorate of Public Prosecution, and Constitutional Court of Appeal. In addition to our weekend adventures around Uganda, we all hang out a lot in our apartment complex/hotel in downtown Kampala called Mosa Court. We all share stories about our internship experiences. Every court is pretty different—some courts are more organized than others, the types of cases and parties are different, some interns are getting more/less work, even the dress code varies a bit in each court.
I'm as happy as a clam working in the Commercial Court. Parties in the Commercial Court are generally international and local businesses, banks, government agencies, and private individuals. I have been gaining a lot of insight into the types of lawsuits that are filed here and the key players in the Ugandan business world. Sometimes, I get to sit in court and observe court process. Most of the time, I am working on drafting a judgment or ruling, scouring through a large case file on my desk. Today, I got a case file that was six inches high! Most of the cases involve either contract disputes or applications invoking the rules of civil procedure. I've had to constantly revisit the contract principles that I learned the fall of my first year in law school, in addition to familiarizing myself with the Civil Procedure Rules of Uganda. The contract principles are mostly the same but with different landmark cases, whereas the civil procedure rules are more difficult for me to grasp.
There were a couple things that came as a surprise to me. First, the differences in legal education here versus the U.S. mean that there is no equivalent to what we understand as a summer judicial intern. Here, a law degree is completed as one's undergraduate education in four years. After that, students work either at a law firm or with a judge for one year while preparing for bar exams. As a result, there are summer interns here who observe court process as a learning experience, usually between their third and fourth year of university education. There are also clerks, who have finished their degrees and are attached to a judge for one year. They draft opinions and judgments during this year before bar exams. Both interns and clerks at the Commercial Court usually hail from Makarere University in Kampala (which is like the "Harvard" of Uganda). I often feel like my educational background puts me in a "limbo" between interns and clerks in terms of capacity.
Another thing that surprised me is that the Commercial Court runs a lot more efficiently than I expected. There appears to be a strong system for court procedure, and everything seems fairly well organized. The court is also using ADR and mediation to resolve disputes, and this is one area that particularly needs resources to continue developing. The recent implementation of ADR is helping businesses immensely since they can resolve their disputes faster and tie up less of their resources in lengthy lawsuits. The effect of ADR cannot be underestimated, since speedier dispute resolution helps the economy and even helps lower the interest rates given by banks. There are still things that might be improved, such as investing in new technology, employing court reporters, expanding the use of mediation and ADR, hiring paid mediators, etc. Overall, though, the Commercial Court is on an upward trajectory.
Professionally, this has been a great experience for me. My professional goals involve working for a non-profit organization or government agency where I can advocate for environmental justice and public-interest causes. Though I have not worked on any environmental cases this summer, I am getting insight into how civil disputes between businesses are argued and resolved. I think it is
also extremely valuable for me to see how a High Court Justice resolves disputes between parties and applies careful legal analysis and reasoning. She is extremely diligent in her work and devoted to seeking justice. It is also a great experience trying to navigate my way through the Ugandan common law system, since there are common denominators that cross over every legal system. Understanding these principles makes me a more adaptable legal thinker. I also appreciate that the Justice for whom I work is helpful in providing encouragement and feedback. Lastly, I have enjoyed adapting to a workplace in a different cultural context, and now I have the confidence that I can adapt to any work environment.
I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience interning in the Commercial Court in Kampala. It has been a wonderful opportunity for me thus far, and I'm sad that my time here is wrapping up in a few short weeks.

Service Projects
At Abilene Christian School, we believe that we are called to live out the Gospel. We strive to be Jesus' hands and feet on earth. Our yearly service projects include the following:
ECI School Wide Service Project
ACS partners with Betty Hardwick's Early Childhood Intervention Program which allows students of all ages to collect and deliver gifts that will bless families right before the Christmas holidays begin.
Meals on Wheels
For over 25 years the 5th Grade Students at Abilene Christian Schools have been delivering meals to individuals on the same Meals on Wheels route.
Mission Thanksgiving
Service project sponsored by Middle School students and a school-wide opportunity to donate clothes and canned goods to others in need. Those goods are then personally delivered by the school to Arrow Ford's Mission Thanksgiving event supporting Love and Care Ministries.
Touch a Life
Each year a secondary class coordinates a fundraiser to support and sponsor Francis, a young man who was formerly a trafficked child from Ghana, Africa. Francis was rescued out of the fishing industry on Lake Volta in June 2010. The money raised will provide Francis with everything he needs to live a healthy, happy life - food, clothing, tuition, books, school uniforms, housing and medical care.

Today, IRIS is announcing the availability of IRIS Snap to liberate time small businesses and accountants spend on bookkeeping. Part of the KashFlow suite of products, IRIS Snap is exclusively available to IRIS accountants whose clients' use KashFlow.
IRIS Snap provides accountants with a mobile app-led service to enable their clients to simply take photos of their business records. The service removes the need for manual data entry for both small businesses and accountants, improving the accuracy of records and reducing the time spent by accountants chasing incomplete records.
IRIS Snap capitalises on the changing behaviour of smartphone usage; 85 per cent of UK adults are now using a smartphone device[i] daily with 42 per cent regularly using smartphone applications[ii]. Using the IRIS Snap app, an accountant's small business clients can capture photos of receipts, invoices, purchase orders and bank statements for seamless processing by IRIS into digital records ready for the accountant to review and publish directly into KashFlow.
The changing nature of app-led services is also reflected in the recent IRIS Voice of the Accountant research, which highlighted that 52 per cent of accountants use or would consider using a mobile accountancy app in the future. Over two thirds (67 per cent) believe their practice will depend on more client self-service apps in the next three years and 62 per cent are already encouraging less digitally minded clients to move their bookkeeping online.
Nick Gregory, Chief Product & Marketing Officer for IRIS Accountancy explains, "Smaller businesses do not want the administrative overhead of bookkeeping, yet readily embrace on-the-go use of mobile apps to manage their business. Offering an app for small businesses to capture digital records, combined with a bookkeeping service based on KashFlow, simplifies the lives of small businesses and accountants alike, making them both more efficient and productive."
IRIS Snap early adopter Chris Kember, Partner at Sinden Thackeray Partnership, an accountancy practice based in Medway, Kent says, "IRIS Snap app is an incredibly fast, accurate and easy to use service. It reduces the considerable time we spend chasing clients' records, improves record keeping and reduces the amount of time manually entering data. As a result, it has enabled us to free up time to focus on more value-added services."
Further information about IRIS Snap can be found at www.iris.co.uk/snap

We've so been getting into '90s Britpop lately (like Pulp, Blur and, of course, Oasis), the sounds of which inevitably remind us of another '90s era staple, the movie Clueless. Even though the film took place well over a decade ago, we're still pining for the life of Cher Horowitz, Beverly Hills princess. Since we here at Broke Girl's Guide may never have Cher's bank account (or her closet, le sigh!), we've put together some bootlegged (broke girl'ed?) ways to live as if our daddies were also high-powered attorneys in the 90210–hot stepbrothers not included:
The first things you'll need are some Ponytail Holders with Ball Ends, $0.74 per item (seriously!).
These are, like, so totally perfect for gym because you need your hair back when balls come flying at your face (but how is that different from your social life?).
After working out, it'll be time to get refreshed and slap on your pinkest lip gloss (obviously). E.L.F. has great gloss for fab prices!
This one has a scent of vanilla mint, which is great for when you "accidentally" get too close to your crush while asking them if they got a haircut.
The easiest way to get back into the '90s fashion revival is to hit up Goodwill stores and/or resale stores likeBuffalo Exchange. At Buffalo Exchange, not only can you get great deals on clothes, but you can sell yours too! And they are totally picky about what they take, meaning, they're not going to buy your faded, moth-attacked Gap turtleneck, and that's good for everyone. Find a nearby location here, then check out their blog for '90s inspired fashion tips! Since knee socks are non-negotiable, we recommend you shop Forever 21′s selection, or check out Hansel from Basel for pricier pairs that will last all season.
Now that you look bitchin', it's time for dinner with your best girlfriend (hopefully, she'll drive)! Dining out like the 1% is totally doable when you use a service like Savored.com, where you can get amazing deals on restaurants. We here at BGG once went to a sushi place that cost just $25 for two people! So totally rad. Savored is available in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, Miami, New York City, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C.
Not all of us can afford our own Lucy to help us clean our most responsible looking outfits. But that's okay, it's the '90s (well, not really) and we have girl power – we can do it ourselves! Did you know you can actually make your own laundry detergent? There are many recipes out there on the Internet. Here's one of many, from His and Her Homesteading. If you're really interested in DIY cleaning, here's another article on the only 5 cleaning supplies you'll ever need.
Don't freak, Cher, it's so doable!
Finally, if you're too addicted to Starbucks to leave it behind forever, there are some things you can do to save money. 1. Get a Starbucks card, so you can get free syrups in your drink. You'll also get coupons sent to you for free drinks! 2. Bring your own cup for a slight discount. 3. If you order a meal pairing, you can save up to $1.20! 4. Of course, you can brew your own Starbucks coffee at home, but we so won't judge if you don't want to risk chipping your manicure in the process.
Obviously, it saves money to avoid Starbucks altogether, but AS IF!

We are kicking off the new year with 10 amazing IsaBody Challenge® Honorable Mentions! In addition to the five new IsaBody™ Finalists, these 10 participants went above and beyond to transform their body and their lives with Isagenix.
These 10 honorees will receive US$1,000/CA$1,110 and free tickets to Isagenix events (Celebration, New Year Kick Off, and one Isagenix University).
Let's meet your NYKO 2018 IsaBody Honorable Mentions!
Chris Lupo
Age: 48
Height: 6'3"
Total Weight Loss: 17 pounds*
Number of Challenges: 5
Location: Gilbert, Arizona
Before Chris started with Isagenix and joined the IsaBody Challenge, he spent a year recovering from knee surgery. During that year, he became depressed, unmotivated, and let himself go. Once he discovered IsaBody, he found the accountability he needed to transform and loved his results so much he kept going, Challenge after Challenge. Now, five Challenges and 17 pounds* later, Chris is looking toward the future and focusing on building an Isagenix business with his wife. As a strength coach for 25 years, Chris knows that Isagenix is the key to healthy living as he approaches his 50s.
Christine Manukyan
Age: 37
Height: 5'11"
Total Weight Loss: 29 pounds*
Number of Challenges: 7
Location: Glendale, California
Christine never wore a two-piece bathing suit because she was so ashamed of her body. After successfully completing multiple IsaBody Challenges and losing weight, her view on body image changed. Not only did she wear a bikini, but she also competed and placed in multiple swimsuit competitions, even recently placing as a finalist! During Christine's most recent IsaBody Challenge, she faced personal struggles but used the accountability and discipline of the Challenge to push through and succeed.
Colleen DeVeyrac
Age: 51
Height: 5'4"
Total Weight Loss: 27 pounds*
Number of Challenges: 9
Location: Kamloops, British Columbia
When Colleen was in her 20s, a horrible car accident changed the course of her life, causing severe and constant pain in her body. As a former athlete, she always tried to stay active, but the pain prevented her from doing the intense workouts she was used to, and her small frame ballooned up to almost 200 pounds. After seeing her now sponsor's posts on social media, Colleen eventually reached out and began taking Isagenix products and joined the Challenge. It also helped that Colleen's partner Katrina was involved in IsaBody and experienced amazing results, so she was inspired to do the same. "The IsaBody Challenge continues to keep me focused and on track," said Colleen. "I love feeling motivated and inspired!"
David Rush
Age: 38
Height: 5'9"
Total Weight Gain: gained 10 pounds of lean muscle*
Number of Challenges: 1
Location: New York, New York
David spent years eating poorly, not exercising, and enjoying nightlife a little too much. He reached a point where he knew he needed to make a change and vowed to do so. He joined the IsaBody Challenge, gave up drinking completely, found confidence at his job, began learning Chinese, and started a running club at work! David gained 10 pounds of lean muscle* and signed up for a marathon and a triathlon. "I saw the light and stepped into it," he said. "There is no turning back."
Deb Bryce
Age: 57
Height: 5'4"
Total Weight Loss: 32 pounds*
Number of Challenges: 2
Location: Rye, New Hampshire
A rough childhood and toxic relationship in her adult life created a lot of self-esteem issues for Deb. In her 50s, she found herself obese and unhappy – angry with herself for allowing her body to get to where it was. As a lifelong athlete and a state police officer, this was not the norm for Deb. She promised herself she would transform into the best physically and mentally before she reached her 57th birthday. Deb joined Isagenix and the IsaBody Challenge, released the weight, and now said that she is stronger than ever and has her quality of life back.
Kevin Cooper
Age: 46
Height: 5'10"
Total Weight Loss: 42 pounds*
Number of Challenges: 1
Location: Downers Grove, Illinois
Kevin reached an extremely low point in his life and felt like he had hit rock bottom. Fortunately, he ran into 2016 IsaBody Challenge Grand Prize Winner Alvie Shepherd at his gym, and Alvie shared what he did to transform his life. Kevin decided to give Alvie's advice a try, and joining the Challenge helped him find the confidence he needed to move past his low point. Today, Kevin has released over 40 pounds,* his Isagenix business is growing, and he spends quality time with his family, laughing and enjoying life.
Nikit Malhotra
Age: 47
Height: 6'1"
Total Weight Loss: 16 pounds*
Number of Challenges: 1
Location: St. Augustine, Florida
There was a time when health issues held Nikit back from pursuing his potential. After a trip to the ER helped him realize how much he needed to work on his health, Nikit listened to a friend who introduced he and his wife to Isagenix. Once he was signed up, Nikit enrolled in the IsaBody Challenge and released 16 pounds,* gained lean muscle, and built up his strength!
Tammy Webb
Age: 36
Height: 5'4"
Total Weight Loss: 11 pounds*
Number of Challenges: 1
Location: Edmonton, Alberta
Although there was a point in her life where she was in very good shape, personal struggles and a divorce caused Tammy to let herself go. "I started to coast through my days without a purpose," Tammy said. She was a long-time product user and tried the IsaBody Challenge twice but never completed it, which left her feeling embarrassed once she gained weight. Tammy reached a point where she decided she'd had enough and finally completed her first Challenge, released the weight, gained back her confidence, and found the energy to commit to daily action and good choices!
Nathan Aferi
Age: 48
Height: 5'10"
Total Weight Loss: 15 pounds*
Number of Challenges: 2
Location: Charlotte, North Carolina
A fear of failing caused Nathan to hesitate before enrolling in the IsaBody Challenge, but when he did, his hard work paid off. Before finding Isagenix and IsaBody, Nathan was praying for some type of solution, and his prayers were answered when a friend introduced him to the products. Nathan regained his energy, released weight, and is now on a mission to help as many people as possible.
Melissa Barkell
Age: 46
Height: 5'11"
Total Weight Loss: 63 pounds*
Number of Challenges: 8
Location: Butte, Montana
An unwanted divorce and personal family struggles haven't held Melissa back from completing her IsaBody Challenges. Consistent workouts, a healthy diet, and daily IsaLean™ Shakes are all key components to the success Melissa has experienced after multiple Challenges. Today, she is grateful for the support she receives from Isagenix and IsaBody and is accepting her new reality while creating a vision for her future!

The Jackal Road Test Begins
[ Posted March 14th, 2010 ] by The Dean
I have to apologise for not posting lately as often as what I have promised. But the good news……starting 1st Feb is that this will be a daily blog except for the 14th Feb when I am taking the missus somewhere special for Valentines Day.
Things have been really hectic lately and I have finally got someone lined up to play The Jackal properly from next month. We have agreed that he keeps all winnings and rakeback and simply pays me a kick back if and when he reaches $5k.
I am struggling to find the time but I do know that Richard is a winning reg at NL50 full-ring. Here though he will be playing six max for the first time. To say that I am nervous is an understatement as I will be reporting the results on here and they will be totally out of my control.
Although in the light of my horrible spewy sessions with The Vulture in 2008-2009 then that can hardly be a bad thing. At least with him then I have someone who will be professional all the time and who will respect the money. So it all starts proper on Monday of next week so keep a look out for that and the daily reports.
Speaking of reports, I managed to play a few sessions of $200 PLO since last post with mixed results. Managed to get around $1000 up for last week and was feeling good until I lost nearly five buy-ins in a single day. I guess that the increased variance in PLO is new to me so I am having to get used to it.
January has been mediocre on the poker front after starting out really well although winnings are winnings I suppose but the effort didn't seem worth it. I may stick to heads up play next month and see how that goes. The PLO has definitely dragged my hourly rate down for January and it would have been a good month had it not been for the PLO and I haven't used my Poker Office once this month.
I am fixated with trying to improve at this game. At heads up I think it is important that you hide your ID because it is all so easy these days for people to datamine and even buy ready made databases. You cannot afford for players to know your game before the get go. Although in heads up play against good players (which they tend to be at $200) then feeling them out and metagame factors are key.
What else is new, well in December I managed to avail myself of a copy of "Let there be Range" which is the e-book that I mentioned some weeks ago that cost $1800. It took me a while to get around to reading it what with Christmas and other things getting in the way. It is written by Cole South and Tri Nguyen. I think the book is excellent although probably too technical for many players.
I definitely improved my game as a result of reading it……in fact scrap that…..I improved it tremendously. Just shows you that in the modern online poker world…….young is best

Taipei Mayor Ko Wen-je (柯文哲) yesterday urged the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) to refrain from using ideology to censor its members, after DPP Deputy Secretary-General Hsu Chia-ching (徐佳青) on Wednesday said that the party would expel any member stumping for Ko after Aug. 31, the candidate registration deadline for the November elections.
"Those who stump for Ko will have to make the choice between voluntarily withdrawing from the party and exclusion," Hsu told SET-TV host Cheng Hung-yi (鄭弘儀).
The decision followed reports that several DPP Taipei city councilors and borough wardens have broken ranks with DPP Legislator Pasuya Yao (姚文智), the party's Taipei mayoral candidate.
The DPP's Taipei chapter on Monday voted against nominating Nangang District (南港) Xixin Borough (西新) Warden Chiu Pi-chu (邱碧珠) for re-election, after Chiu endorsed Ko on multiple occasions.
Ko at a ribbon-cutting event said that he thinks the nation should have "soft" political parties that do not compel members to follow an ideological line or pursue collective self-interests.
"Hopefully, the election will change the character of Taiwanese politics," he added.
Taipei Department of Civil Affairs Commissioner Lan Shih-tsung (藍世聰), a DPP member who has come under fire from party colleagues, said it would be strange for a political appointee to not defend the mayor and his policies.
"Would the Executive Yuan tolerate ministers who do not support the president?" he asked. "I really do not want to be expelled from the party, but what can I do?"
Asked what he would do if the party demands that he stump for Yao, Lan vowed to support Ko regardless of the party's sanctions, saying that he would not be able to endorse another candidate after declaring his support for Ko at the city council.
"I can vouch that Ko is a hard worker who is deserving of my support," Lan said.
The DPP should think carefully when wielding party discipline, because it has no power over the will of the people, he said, adding that using disciple to force the party against the people would only harm the party.
Asked to comment on the DPP's mounting criticism of Lan, Ko said that Lan's visits to borough wardens and civil groups were strictly related to his work as civil affairs commissioner.
"You cannot forbid the man from leaving his office six months before an election. It is not as if he is a named member of my campaign," Ko said.
Yao yesterday spoke to reporters after accepting a Broadcasting Corp of China (中廣) interview, during which he rejected the suggestion that the DPP had made the decision to discipline members in response to his flagging approval rating.
"The order to endorse party nominees applies equally to every DPP politician in the nation, and everyone engaged in politics should know that as party members, their speech and actions are subject to discipline," he said.

Every porn connoisseur knows sex goes like this: lame conversation, then three seconds of boob mashing, then five minutes of dick sucking (because it's important to make sure the guy is excited and ready to go before sex), followed by a lot of vagina stabbing that the girl is totally into because giving that blowjob turned her on so much. That's just what sex is and everyone is cool with that, not just the sleazy dudes who make porn.
You're clearly caught up in a moment of great physical pleasure. Are you supposed to hinder that by NOT shooting semen all over your significant other, sheets, and the nice duvet cover that's really hard to take off and put on the comforter? Yeah, you could keep things tidier if you made even the slightest effort, by why would you do that when you could force yourself to either instantly do laundry or have your whole life smell like chlorine-y bread. Because, yes, that's what it smells like.
You might think that the reason sex feels so good is because you're creating lots of friction by putting your penis in a tight grip of muscles, but no! Vaginas are gaping chasms that can easily be penetrated from any angle with absolutely no resistance. Definitely just try to jab it in by humping in the general direction of her pelvis. This will work and feel great for everyone!
God, sex is so dull. Just rubbing genitals until orgasm. Blah. The only way to have fun and be good at sex is to constantly change positions. Keep everyone on their toes! (Literally, this one position doesn't account for height difference and will require you to balance on your toes until you switch positions again or get charlie horse.)

Before deciding on whether to refinance the mortgage you should have a look at the home equity loan benefits and drawbacks. This is a serious choice and ties an individual into a new interest and new payment obligations so you must be certain of what you are getting yourself into.
When looking at the home collateral loan pros and cons youll see some definite advantages to taking a loan. To begin with there is the infusion of money. Once you have signed the actual papers you will have a great amount of money to do with, as you want. There is no obligation to utilize it for the residence you have just used the loan out on. It is possible to if you please, refurbish or add to the house you live within or you could use it for a brand new vehicle or which dream vacation. Possibly your plan ended up being to invest it. Any of these things is possible. The other huge advantage is that the interest is duty deductible on the first one hundred thousand dollars of the loan. This can be a big aid.
But looking at the home equity loan pros and cons means looking at the negative side too. If you or your lover loses their work you may find that with a couple of monthly payments on your home that you easily turn out to be at risk of losing your home. Or even if the housing market comes and you have to sell your property you could be in a position in which selling the house does not pay off both financial loans.
If you are trying to pay off debts that you have and so are taking the loan to only have got one extra payment instead of several you may find that what looks good in the short term can on over the years youll must pay this off. You could just be paying a great deal in interest within the term of this equity loan that you are only reducing the pain of pay back for a limited time.
Any time weighing the home fairness loan pros and cons you need to be guaranteed to look at both sides of the deal. The money is effective but you want to make certain that the things you wanted the money for are worth the risk of placing the equivalent of a 2nd mortgage on your house this is why it is so vital that you weight out the residence equity loan pros and cons before making a final decision.

Jesse Custer (Dominic Cooper) is going through hell. Or rather, hell — or heaven, or some combination of the two — is going through him. Whatever it is, a supernatural force has rudely taken up residence in his body, giving him great power and a tremendous headache.
"Preacher," which begins Sunday on AMC, is a story about good and evil and what lies beyond mortal existence, but it doesn't spend much time in quiet contemplation of the eternal mysteries. It's a blasphemous blood bath, a metaphysical action caper, stylized and splattery, that doesn't have great depth but makes up for it with volume.
The premise of "Preacher" is hard to explain — and arguably, the less you know going in the better. But in brief: Jesse, an ex-criminal turned reverend serving an indifferent flock in his squalid hometown, Annville, Tex., is doubting his faith and considering leaving his ministry, when the spirit hits him.
I mean it really hits him: He's entered by a formless phantasm with a baby's cry. This spirit may be holy or unholy, but it knocks him flat. When he comes to, he's imbued with the power to compel people to obey his commands, and he has attracted the attention of two otherworldly agents eager to get their hands on him.
Who? And why? The mythology of "Preacher" takes its time unfolding, but the mayhem doesn't. Jesse is quickly paired up with two companions. Cassidy (Joseph Gilgun), a hard-drinking, rubber-faced jack-in-the-box of an Irish vampire, drops in out of the blue to befriend him; Tulip (Ruth Negga), Jesse's sunshiny-but-deadly ex-girlfriend, wants to enlist him in one more heist.
Setting the tone, both characters are introduced with crazy-balletic, improvisatory fight scenes. Among the objects lethally employed: a spear, a crossbow, a champagne bottle and a corncob. "Preacher" boasts some of the most creatively incongruous weaponry since the news-crew rumble in "Anchorman."
"Preacher" is adapted, from Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon's notoriously hard-to-adapt comic-book series, by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, working with the showrunner Sam Catlin. (The four episodes screened for critics depart from the early plot of the comics, which build toward a cosmic showdown involving heaven and hell.)
Mr. Rogen and Mr. Goldberg wrote the comedies "Superbad" and "Pineapple Express," but their most relevant credit here is their directing debut, "This Is the End," a disaster comedy set amid a biblical apocalypse. "Preacher" is a drama, but one with a devilish sense of humor and visual playfulness.
It opens in "OUTER SPACE" (announced by full-screen captions, no more subtle than anything else here), where the celestial entity hurtles toward Earth past luridly fakey planets out of a 1950s B-movie. A fight scene in a moving car cuts to a breathtaking aerial, as the vehicle cuts a serpentine S into a cornfield.
The series' dark comedy and connoisseur's eye recall the Coen brothers; so do the often-cartoony Southern characters. Annville is a penny-ante Gomorrah, mean and morally rudderless, populated by a spiteful good-ol'-boy sheriff (W. Earl Brown), bullies, hookers and feral kids who squeal "Awesome!" at an especially creative murder. The most soulful supporting player is the most physically caricatured: Eugene (Ian Colletti), the sheriff's son, who survived a suicide attempt that left him with a sphincter-shaped face (and a coarse nickname to match).
But there's a good rapport among the central trio of Jesse, Tulip and Cassidy, and Mr. Cooper finds heft in his pulpy dialogue as Jesse weighs the responsibility of his power. "Week after week," he says, "I've been just another man who hurts by not helping."
AMC has undergone its own journey of self-discovery in recent years. Having made TV-as-literature with "Mad Men" and "Breaking Bad," it scored bigger with the grim zombie smash "The Walking Dead," also based on a comic-book series.
"Preacher" is another attempt to turn action comics into gold. But it has a chance to crossbreed the better angels of character drama with devilish genre splatter. Within its oversize color panels there's some hard-boiled philosophy about trying to be good in a world of sin. (But not too good. As "Paradise Lost" taught us, in any story of heaven and hell, the damned are more interesting.)
And there's little on TV quite like its fallen world. In the pilot, Jesse describes the feeling of having a spirit squatting in his body: "It feels like there's a big blender in my gut. And inside that blender, there's everything," he says. "All of God's creation, inside of me."
That more or less sums up the aesthetic of "Preacher," which packs apocalypse, horror, religion, dirty realism and dime-store westerns into its glass jar, then sets the whole bloody mixture on purée.

No more gadget review site.
This will now serve as my personal blog for anything and everything under the sun, though I suppose I will be writing more about my ideals about general life in Singapore, as well as some of my passions, like fountain pens.
I will be removing old posts in a few days, might take another week to customize the site to my liking.

To be saved from sin, Satan, hell, and damnation and to be saved for new and eternal life in Christ, you must:
Throughout the world, hundreds of thousands of catechumens are going to their cathedrals today to celebrate with their bishops the Rite of Election. They and we have been elected, that is, chosen to be saved by Jesus, our Savior. "He saved us; not because of any righteous deeds we had done, but because of His mercy" (Ti 3:5). Let us thank, love, serve, and worship Jesus forever for choosing us to be saved. Therefore, let us live and die for Jesus, tell everyone about Him, and even more closely imitate Jesus this Lent in His fasting and faithfulness to the Father.

The Birth of an Advocate
YMCA scene from my wedding on June 18th. My mom, my son, me, my new hubby, his sis, her daughter and her sister..
This weekend, my mom was at my house. She had taken my son on vacation and was bringing him back. Well, I was online on Facebook at some point and had clicked on a post with some still scenes from a birth while my mom was sitting next to me. My mom was fascinated. You see, she has never seen or experienced natural childbirth. When she was pregnant with me, the only thing she knew about pregnancy was how to get that way. She didn't really know anything else about pregnancy, childbirth, labor or newborns. She was a tiny little thing, barely 4'10" and barely 98lbs when she got pregnant. The doctors told her that her pelvis was too small to deliver anything other than a 5 or 6 pound baby and it was decided that I was a big baby and that she would need a c-section. She was due June 30th, but, was allowed to go until she went into labor apparently because she woke up in the night on July 18th in labor. My dad drove her the hour to the hospital and they whisked her in to the OR at 1 or 2 AM because by 2:18AM I was born. I was 8lbs and 14oz and 23in. so yeah, I was a bigger baby, but, we still don't know for sure she couldn't have me. My mom was put under for the birth because she couldn't take the feeling of them working on her, so, she missed out on a lot. She never planned on nursing me anyway so her missing out really didn't affect that. :)
In showing her those videos, I wanted her to be armed with knowledge not only for herself, although, she is past having kids, but to be a voice for anyone else she meets that needs a voice. Maybe her niece, or cousin are pregnant and she hears them mention c-section or big baby, I know that now, she will speak up about things after having seen these videos. She was truly fascinated. She asked questions too!! I explained that one birth was an unassisted birth, she asked if it was legal and could you get in trouble. I got to tell her that it is legal here and you CAN take charge if you want. She asked why the mom was on hands and knees and I told her that the position is the BEST for opening the pelvis and making room. I told her that the lithotomy(back) position used in hospitals was the worst and closed up the pelvis more. She asked me why the doctor would use it if it was the worst and I got to tell her it is so they can see better. She was not happy about that answer...you could see it in her expression. I even showed her a breast crawl video, she seemed less impressed. LOL She said well if baby kangaroos can crawl up and into the pouch without anyone telling them or putting them there, why can a human baby find a boob to eat from? Indeed mom, touche.
Why am I telling you this? Well, I want you to see all of the places where one might inform or educate an otherwise unlikely student/mom. I also want you to see the possibilities for ripple effects from this bit of info being shed on someone. Now, instead of spreading her story as "I had to have a c-section because my pelvis was too small and baby was too big.", she might start telling the story as, "I wasn't allowed to give birth naturally because the doctors jumped the gun and said I had to have a c-section." Just that change in wording might help the next person think a little beforehand. Would it change the fact she had a c-section, no. Would it maybe prevent another scheduled one for someone else, possibly. Maybe this small change in perspective for her will help her when talking to future pregnant women. It's a start at least.

The more women open themselves up to questioning their birth experiences, the more they will discover that they have choices in childbirth and can help others avoid the same pitfalls they encountered. After my own traumatic instrumental birth I am that much more adamant that women I know become aware of their options and seek the proper birthing support like doulas and midwives.ReplyDelete
Thank you for your insight. That is wonderful. Kudos.ReplyDelete
My daughter was 10lbs 13oz and 22 3/4in long. The ultrasound I had the week before they estimated she was 7lb 13oz (obviously they were wrong, or she gained 3lbs in one week) Because they were not expecting such a big baby I had a vaginal birth as opposed to a c-section. Because she was so big she got stuck and I needed 3 nurses on top pushing while the doctor pulled and the result was that my baby broke her arm and went through so much stress they had to start her breathing and she scored a 3 on her first apgar test. I believe that doctors do in fact know more now then they did when our parents had us so if they suggest a c-section I will take consideration to that and listen to them because they do have the best outcome in mind.ReplyDelete

Could There Be An Xscape Reunion In The Works?[VIDEO]
Kinfolk! After watching the Xscape's Unsung I thought a Xacape reunion was impossible because Kandi & Tamika Scott couldn't patch things up! But here I am scrolling my Instagram feed and I see Tiny, Kandi, Ana Tamika Scott in the studio at V103 on the Big Tigger show!
Could a reunion be under the hood? I hope so. Xscape is one of my favorite R&B groups. They never had a bad album. I guess all miracles are possible! We'll see what this means! If they know like I know they BETTER GET TO THE MONEY! Like BBD,SMV, and etc.
Whut say you?

By NAPS,
North American Precis Syndicate
Ophthalmologists nationwide provide eye exams and care to seniors in need. (NAPS)
(NAPSI)—It's a fact of life. When people reach their senior
years, they are at high risk for developing age-related eye diseases that can
lead to blindness if not caught and treated in time. The good news is, people
can take steps to protect themselves through a simple eye exam.
What You Can Do
During the holiday season or at any time, you can give the gift of sight
by connecting an older loved one with an ophthalmologist who can provide eye
exams, often at no out-of-pocket cost, through the American
Academy of Ophthalmology's
EyeCare America
This year-round program is designed for those age 65 and older who have
not seen an ophthalmologist, a physician who specializes in medical and
surgical eye care, in three or more years. Eligible patients are matched with
a nearby volunteer ophthalmologist and receive a medical eye examination and
up to one year of care for any condition diagnosed during the initial visit.
Connecting friends and family members with an eye exam may be the most
lasting gift you can give. Give the gift of sight to a special senior.
Who Can Help
EyeCare America
has helped nearly 2 million people since 1985. Its sight-saving services are
made possible through the generous support of the Knights Templar Eye
Foundation, Inc., with additional support provided by Alcon.

Long Live Luella!
Bored of neutrals already? Take a leaf out of Luella's book and have a Spring Fling with candy brights, pastel pops, bows and polka-dots galore!
Rumours has it that Jaeger's soon to be launched diffusion line 'Boutique' is aimed at the ex-Luella girl.
It seems other high street suspects have jumped on the Luella-wagon trend wise, and whilst it's no crime whatsoever to take inspiration from another brand, these BooHoo.com Matalan and F&F Tesco dresses seem to be a copy too far, But then again i'm all for looking like I can afford Luella.
Here's Alexa Chung in her genuine Luella cut-out heart frock:
Poor Luella would be turning in her candy floss-lined, polka-dot grave! There are rumours of a resurrection for the brand if new backers materialise, although Luella failed to show an A/W 2010 RTW collection at London Fashion Week in February and the Spring/ Summer line wasn't put into production.
Check back here for more updates on Luella's future (hopefully) soon!
The good news on the other hand, there are Luella bargains to be had a-plenty via Urban Outfitters, The OutNet.com (whom I'm in a huff with for not bagging anything in the £1 sale earlier today, boo) and Luella's Bicester Village outlet store where I picked up a pair of 'so on-trend it hurts' khaki safari shorts for £49 from the Luella S/S 2009 RTW collection (pic of me to follow!)
More Luella-a-Likes (almost all from New Look- copycats!) for Luella fans including Alexa, Pixie and Peaches Gelof, Nicola Roberts, Zooey Deschanel and Princess Beatrice to pick from:
Jumpsuit fever has well and truly hit. At first feared and only worn by fashion forward insiders and plumbers alike, the jumpsuit is now a spring staple seen on various catwalks including Stella McCartney, celebrities and in high street stores alike.
Check out this stunning Sea New York leopard print twill jumpsuit. Seen on the delectable Kate Hudson, and…me!
I'll post a picture of me in it shortly as i'm hitting the town wearing it later.
Available at hip boutique Oxygen on Eastcastle Street, London.
The best of the rest:
Studded zip detail jumpsuit, £80 by Stella McCartney for Adidas at net-a-porter.com
Gingham looks set to be huge this Spring after Christopher Kane flaunted the fabric at his Spring/Summer 2010 show.
Pick up these checkered lovelies now and jump on the pretty trend.
Top 3: Silky Shirts
Neutrals are having their fashion moment- albeit in a minimal styling sense.
Think shades of warmed up cream, beige, biscuit, toffee, caramel, nude, blush pink, and this combined with an androgynous shirt in a silky feminine fabric- is perfect for spring.
Currently being raved about and fresh from the catwalks of Chloe, the neutral shirt is a spring must-have.
Here's my pick of the top 3:
Red Herring at Debenhams
Make like Chanel- via Alexa- and sport a bag made of natural raw materials, those materials namely being wicker -that usually of summer holiday chair which gives appearance of cellulite inprint on legs- raffia -usually found on 3 euro beach mats in Benidorm- and a natural tone of tweed -a new twist on the classic Chanel 2.55.
Seen on the catwalk at Chanel RTW for this spring, Alexa carried her lunchbox-style wicker basket to the Chanel autumn show – a season ahead- and on-trend and faultless as usual.
Dip your toe in the trend…
There are some amazing high street copies around at the moment- and with the real deal costing well into quadruple figures, i'd say this is a trend which will come and go- so best not to invest. Although i'm never the one to say that Chanel isn't an investment!
Burberry? Very.
Check out these Burberry Prorsum-a-likes.
This lavender ASOS mac has the twisted detail down to a t.
Whilst this sorbet coloured sateen twill New Look bargain nails the trend.
Lipsy (cringe) have also done a suprisingly realistic version.
Can you tell the difference? Accessorize with a thick belt and socks with sandals for spring pastel-utility chic a la Christopher Bailey- can you still tell the difference?
Pubbly jubbly.
Monday marked the opening of Anya Hindmarch's pop-up pub 'The Bag and Bottle' in posh Belgravia.
Anya, the self-proclaimed 'Bag Lady', is Landlady for the week, proudly showcasing her new collection of sumptous leather goods and bags.
The Bag & Bottle, usually The Star Tavern (where the great train robbery was planned) is open to the press on Monday and Tuesday acting as a showroom, and for the public for the rest of the week.
The pub is the eptimome of olde-English pub kitsch, decked out in antique wood and with Anya's personalised beer mats strewn across tables and thw whole thing embellished with Anya's beautiful bags proudly on display.
Crowd pleasers included good old-fashioned favourite bar snacks- including pork scratchings and pickled eggs-, real ale and darts. Bag & Bottle sailor style tattoos and boxes of matches were also being given out, I will put up a photo of the one adorning my wrist tonight.
" I have always loved anything that is traditional and British and what could be more so than the iconic British pub. Being landlady for a week and having the chance to give this pub a make over is like a dream come true for me ", says the lovely Anya who is propping up the bar and greeting 'punters' from publications including Glamour, ES Magazine (I greeted some old colleagues with a mouthful of pork scratchings, classy) and Vogue as well as little old me.
I bagged myself some pig snacks and a pint of Anya's home brew whilst I browsed the collection, inparticularly the new season Carker bag which has been brought bang up to date in a butter soft, battered leather and in metallic bronze and silver as well as black and cream- but with a £600+ price tag to match, naturally.
The trademark Hindmarch designs returned for the new season, namely the slogan purses- my favourite being a coin purse with "magazine money" simply embroidered on to the front.
Anya was the pioneer of the eco-bag craze, launching the "This Is Not A Plastic Bag" canvas shopper at Sainsburys back in 2007 for £5 which was an instant sell-out and was later seen on eBay commanding a much larger sum- yours truly queued at 6am to get her hand on one. Although, not so unique now Primark et al have done a version- but probably my only chance to own an Anya Hindmarch bag in the near future, let's be honest!
Anya's designs are simple yet sumptuous and brilliant for real women- who like to carry around all but the kitchen sink. Hindmarch's designs incorporate various clever pockets, pouches and slots for the multi-tasking girl's mobile phone/ lipstick/ keys.
The venue also played host to a Vogue fashion pub quiz see The Times piece here featuring the tricky questions: see how many you can get correct. I got a limp 18 out of 30.
Celebrity guests which dropped by included Barbara "get aaaaaagght a my pub" Windsor- perhaps the eptimimoe of London barmaid chic.
Go and check it out for yourself from now until Friday:

Protecting a Virtual Machine and also inside a guest
May 18, 2011 at 1:18 pm in Uncategorized by mikeresseler
Working on the Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager booth the last few days got myself quite some insight in what customers want from DPM. It also brought up a few "issues" that actually are non-issues but where you need to do a few steps to get the issue out of the way.
This is the scenario. People want to protect the entire virtual machine once a day, a week, a … depending on their needs. At the same time, they want to add a DPM agent inside the guest to enjoy the "every 15 minutes backup" for SQL or Exchange or so.
This scenario provides two great things:
1. You have a Disaster Recovery plan
You can recover your entire virtual machine, from x-days old. Start the box, and then recover the latest data in the guest
2. You have a restore test scenario
Recover the virtual machine to an alternate hyper-v host. And then do the recovery inside the guest again.
So you get real value for this scenario. But here's the catch. When you are protecting the hyper-v machine, it will also go inside the guest to get a consistent state and truncate logs. But you have also a guest backup that also will truncate logs… Houston, we have a problem here…
Luckily there is an answer to this problem.
The issue is described in this KB article:
Issue 3
The application backup operation in the virtual machine (VM) is incorrectly affected by the VM backup operation on the server that is running Hyper-V.
However, in some cases, this doesn't solve the problem. Don't panic… Here is what you need to do:
You can apply the following registry entry in a virtual machine to fix "Issue 3" for that virtual machine:
Location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Virtualization\VssRequestor
Name: BackupType
Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 0 or 1
If this registry entry is created and its value is set to 1 , application backup will not be affected by the virtual machine backup operation on the server that is running Hyper-V. If this registry entry does not exist, or if its value is 0 , the "Issue 3" occurs.
