It looks a little bit like the Dooney purse I carried in high school.
Yep, Dooney and Bourke's current Dillen Satchel will definitely give you this look for less- shape, leather texture, color, and all…
The Epi Alma is still the top of the line for this bag…
I like the black with gold hardware. However, too expensive. Still looks like a less expensive alma.
In my opinion, this new material made the Alma less-expensive looking. It looked more expensive in the epi leather and monogrammed embossed vernis. It looks most expensive in a vernis.
Hmm…yet another designer who makes things that they only want "certain" people to buy. Apparently, that doesn't include me.
Well, every designer makes things they only want certain people to buy. Louis Vuitton has just decided to shift that group a little bit.
Is that why Marc Jacobs is leaving you think?
Excellent point! MJ makes glorious bags, but they are still attainable without being obnoxious. I think MJ is one of those designers who aren't as stuffy when it comes to who purchases his items. I think he just wants people in general to enjoy his creations.
Is that really true though? I feel like there are 2 types of designers: one that designs with a specific customer in mind and the other, a designer that simply wants to bring his/her vision to life. IDK.
That dangly thing looks an awful lot like the Hermes clochette. A Bolide by any other name . . .
This leather version doesn't look as luxurious as what you expect from LV. I still prefer the epi leather version. This one, IMO, is not worth the price. Somewhat disappointing…
This might be slightly off topic but with LV prices soaring close to 4K on a good bag I wonder what the folks who could once afford an LV (even if it's 1500) think about it.
This looks like a Dooney and I wouldn't pay $4,450 for this bag. I have spent a lot of money on bags but this just isn't worth it. If they want to raise the price of their bags then they need to completely redesign them. Why would I drop 5K on a bag when I can have the same bag in different leather for a fraction of the cost?
has anybody here even seen this bag irl?
its fabulous! i LOVE the suede color-contrasting lining <3
i wouldnt compare it to epi or vernis since vernis is really flashy and epi is a lot stiffer than that version here. theyre all the same bag (so to speak) but i feel like they all look really different :3
Bolide wannabe.
What is epi leather made of exactly?is it sort of invented by LV or just
some kind of crafts exclusively owned by LV?~
I LOVE these alma's but they are out of my price range of what I feel comfortable spending on a handbag. I wonder how these will look after some heavy use since they are a softer leather. I'd fear that they loose the shape and look kind of saggy.
It's beautiful. The price will definitely keep me from owning it though :(
Price increase in monogram products might scare away young people for their first brand bag ever and I believe that products of Parnassea collection will not take many customers from other high-end brands such hermes..
Meh, I am not feeling the material, perhaps it'll look better with Suhali leather. Part of the reason I think LV is going south because they kept turning LE to regular line production, get the hype up then mass produce the line. It's just wrong.
I'm not impressed by Vuitton. With those prices, i can go to Fendi, Gucci or Loewe.
At Vuitton, they needs to realize that they have too many ugly bags. They needs to concentrate on the essentials, the classic Vuitton bags. The monogram has lost his value so maybe they needs to push the damier which is more chic.
Seriously, i'll never pay that price for a Vuitton bag. Instead of copying Hermes, they have to see what is happening at Fendi. Fendi bags are just gorgeous.
Its boring. Its casual class and perhaps trying hard to appeal to the audience mentioned above, but it just lacks the luxe that you would expect when buying a Vuitton.
hmmm… looks like many people not a big fan of this alma. Is it really so bad?
I actually thought the Taurillon leather collection is quite nice, and Alma PM is in my wish list. (i haven't seen or feel the real bag though).
What about Suhali Lockit? which is a better leather bag?
It can be hard to afford original handbags with this economy. If any one is looking for a replica brand name bag email me at firstname.lastname@example.com. Any Louis Vuitton handbag ranges from $95-$155.
It's kind of a bummer that these mostly come in silver hardware, except for the black.

Fic where Bucky is doing his thing post Cap 2 and one day he looks up and Tony Stark is standing in the mouth of the alley. And Bucky's like, okay, he's here because of his parents, or project Insight or whatever but instead Tony's just like "So does Cap like Asian cuisine? Italian just seems overdone, you know? I guess we could stick to all-American fare but that seems trite."
And Bucky's just like… "um?"
"I guess I could take him to that fusion place. Do you know fusion? Oh god, you don't know your own name, what am I asking?"
And Bucky just kind of squints at him and he's like "Don't take him anywhere pretentious. If you genuinely want to show him something new, he'll have a good time."
And Tony's all "Thanks for the advice, wing-man! I'll catch up with you later and tell you how it went!" And he takes a few steps before he pauses and asks "Do you need anything? You kind of look like you need something. A shower mostly."
Bucky just narrows his eyes. "I'm fine?"
"You need money. I'm going to send you money."
And Bucky just shakes his head like yeah, definitely Howard's kid, geez but a couple of days later a private courier finds him at his safe house in Prague and delivers the shiniest, blackest AMEX card in the world.
Bucky resists the temptation for five whole days.
(Tony keeps popping up for dating advice "Should I take Steve dancing?" "Sure if you want a 230 pound super human stomping all over your feet and stammering apologies." "Is it weird that I kind of do?" and "So is Steve gay or bi or what?" "You've been trying to date him for six weeks and it just occurred to you to ask?" "Whatever, I don't care if he's straight, he's totally Tony-sexual." "He does have a critical weakness for smart-mouthed assholes.")
"You can come back with me you know," Tony says one day. He's rocking up and down on the balls of his feet, watching Bucky pour kerosene over the back porch of one of Hydra's commanders (there's no one else in the house, he's made sure, he's not what they made of him anymore). Bucky hasn't used the AMEX card in a couple weeks, but Tony always finds him. Bucky's probably bugged, but he can't bring himself to care. If he gets killed at least Stark will be able to find his body. He has the vague notion that Steve would probably want to know if he was dead.
"I know," Bucky says as he pours out the rest of the accelerant and tosses the can away.
"You gonna?"
"Not today."
"I have a pool," Tony says. "Well, technically I have seven of them. Eight? Twelve if you count the hotels. And king-sized beds with down-filled comforters. Fully stocked kitchens with gourmet chefs.Working showers."
"For a guy trying to make time with my best friend you are really obsessed with my personal hygiene."
"You have to shower before you can come inside my tower," Tony said. "And also that arm. Ew. Jesus, I can hear the servos straining from here. Hydra's engineers should be ashamed."
"They're all dead," Bucky said as he fished his matchbook out of his pocket. "Everyone who knew anything about how this thing works. I made sure of it."
If he's expecting Tony to be shocked, he's disappointed. The billionaire just shrugged. "That's probably a good plan, really. What?" he asked. "You're talking to a man who blew up everyone involved in what they did to me. Like I can judge."
It's a fair point. Bucky flips the match over his shoulder. "Right, so I was reading about this fusion stuff."
Tony keeps tracking him down - and he tells Steve, of course he does, Bucky doesn't eve try to tell him not to. But he doesn't want Steve to come yet. Stark is… Stark is different. Stark doesn't care about the man Bucky used to be, and he never knew the inhuman machine the Winter Soldier had been. Stark doesn't want anything from him except advice. Stark isn't disappointed in what Bucky is making out of the wreckage of his former lives.
So he tells Stark to tell Steve not to come. And Steve - it takes a couple of near-misses but Steve listens. If Bucky ever goes too far off the map Steve will come looking to make sure he's still alive, but that's… reassuring. Sometimes Stark passes along messages. Mostly they don't talk about Steve except in the context of Stark's ongoing attempts to seduce him.
Bucky knows Steve somewhere deep in the back of his mind and the pit of his stomach. He knows Steve without knowing how he knows. And everytime Stark shows up and bemoans his lack of progress, Bucky has to bite his tongue from telling the man that Steve is so obviously smitten that even in Stark's biased and self-deprecating accounts Bucky can tell that Steve's just dragging this out for shits and giggles and it's basically a done deal.
One day in March he sees a picture of Steve and Stark on the cover of the CNN front page. Stark is gesturing wildly and Steve has one arm around his waist. He's looking at Tony with an expression that most people only aim at adorable kittens and their spouse of fifty years.
It's a good look on him.
Bucky takes out his shiny black AMEX and books the first flight he can find to New York.

Cushioned Retirement Investing
Adjusting the 4% Rule for Portfolio Fees
The Gap Between the Financial Advice You Need and What You Get
You can follow me on Twitter (@MJonMoney). Here are some short takes and some weekend reading:
Canadian Couch Potato thinks that robo-advisors are unlikely to come to Canada because the market isn't big enough. However, on 2014 Jan. 15, David Chilton tweeted "Solid, unbiased, ultra-low-cost financial advice will be automated in user-friendly apps over the next few years. Will change everything." I guess we'll see what happens.
The Blunt Bean Counter added two more instalments to his series on how much money you need to retire. See part 3 and part 4.
Where Does All My Money Go? has Preet's latest podcast where he gets a teacher's perspective on financial literacy in schools. Kyle Prevost makes some very candid remarks about teachers and their math abilities and financial skills. In another interesting remark he says that economics majors can't get into a faculty of education program.
Million Dollar Journey has a comprehensive guide to cutting the cable cord.
Big Cajun Man suggests some Valentine's Day gifts in the form of contributions to registered savings plans. I'm guessing that this type of gift would go over well for couples who already save very well, and would cause a great deal of unhappiness for couples who desperately need to save more.
SquawkFox has some ideas for Valentine's Day for those on a budget.

Short Takes: Robo-Advisors, Retirement Magic Number, and more

Unhappiness? It might cause an all out war, would be my guess. Thanks for the inclusion this week.ReplyDelete
They're both right: the send-your-money-to-be-invested-automagically-for-you model likely won't work in Canada due to the costs of getting it going with regulations, etc. But, that doesn't mean people aren't already, this very evening and through the long weekend, working on apps, books, videos, and other products to help provide unbiased advice and support for DIY investing and planning.ReplyDeleteReplies
@Potato: I agree. It's kind of funny that the robo-advisor model won't work, but something potentially even cheaper might work.Delete

The "stars" are coming out for the protests at the Capitol.
The Rev. Jesse Jackson, a long-time civil rights leader, appeared at the Capitol to rally and pray with protesters upset about the "Right To Work" laws.
Jackson said he felt he needed to be in Lansing to protest the bills because he says they'll hurt the economy and working people.
So does Jim Hoffa, Jr. son of legendary union leader Jimmy Hoffa. The younger Hoffa followed in his father's footsteps and is the president of the Teamsters union.
"This bill will tear Michigan apart," Hoffa told the crowd. "You need to end this war on workers!"
Emerald Morrow talked to Jackson and we'll have his comments tonight on 6 News.

Edmonton's City Centre Redevelopment includes urban agriculture
Agrihood by Perkins and Will, from Vancouver, Canada.
Five teams were short listed
The City Centre Redevelopment project is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We can create a new community in the heart of the city that will bring Edmonton to the forefront of the world stage in sustainable community development.
In 2010, five teams were short listed from 33 international submissions to provide their proposals for our new community. Representatives from the five finalists, from Europe and North America, visited our city and were excited to participate in the City's vision to redevelop this large, centrally-located piece of land (217 hectares or the equivalent of 266 Canadian football fields, including end zones.)

How does one become more involved in this process? I am quite involved in gardening and community development, but this area has always held first place.
Please do put me on a communications list… Thanks

I am considering the construction of a wood burning oven for the back yard.
Does anyone have experience with one of these?
Hey, knock that shvt off. We're drinkin' here.
No but I would like too.
I can link to tons of sites but I guess you can find them without my help.
Do you have a source of clay near you?
I've seen a few sights, but the more the merrier. I'd appreciate any links you think may be worthwhile.
Everything I've seen calls out fire-brick or fire-concrete. The clay thing is interesting. I do have a source.
This is a simple one using Loam made from clay.http://www.frankspizzaoven.com

BTW, to make a great nighttime cover use one layer of regular fleece backed by one layer of microfleece. It is more trim than 2 layers of regular fleece but works great.

Great Shoe I was looking for a nice shoe for summer to wear to my business casual office, and this one is perfect! It is very comfortable and fits true to size. August 5, 2014
comfortable for a long day on your feet Had to exchange for a half size smaller so that they wouldn't slip at the heel. Wore for a long day on my feet and they were very comfortable. I would definitely recommend. Balance of classy and sexy. July 16, 2014
Good shoe, but big and color not accurate I should have listened to the other reviewers and gotten a half size smaller. The problem is with Clarks I'm either a 7.5 or 8 depending on the shoe. For these I'm a 7 so keep that in mind. Also the nude is nothing like the actual color. I figured the picture online must be inaccurate, but they should call it camel, not nude. It's rather dark. Still I am going to attempt to get the correct size because I do like the shoe. August 6, 2014
Great Product I have these shoes in black as well, they are comfortable and very stylish! July 24, 2014
Great Shoe! I have this shoe in all three colors. Black, nude and patent leather. They are all beautiful and comfortable. July 24, 2014
My new favorite heel I bought these to replace heels that look just like them, but the comfort in these Clarks is 100% more. You can actually wear them all day. I have a bad back and they are proportioned perfectly for me. I also have this look in a boot for the winter. Soooooo happy I found Clarks online and can shop directly, get coupons and always have the best shoe! If you buy these you will not be sorry. May 29, 2014
Love the shoes but have to return due to them being too small. Probably 1/2 size too big. Unfortunately these are too big (approx 1/2 size too big). I love the shoes. They are adorable and comfortable but slightly too big. Unfortunately the website doesn't carry the half size down (8.5) that I need. June 23, 2014
Very pretty but unwearable for me These shoes look so pretty on the website. I had my fingers crossed when they arrived and I tried them on but I knew immediately they would not work. Too small overall, too stiff and probably a bit too high give my foot issues. I love the look of a slight platform and I don't understand why Clark's can make a shoe that looks just like this and has the padded footbed but also is made of nice, soft, comfortable leather (instead of stiff patent leather), and a heel that is just a tad lower (1/4" - 1/2"). I do have some of Clark's closed toe heels from last season that work very well but can't seem to find any pretty summer heels in a nude color that I can actually wear. June 11, 2014
Sleek and appealing These shoes are great to wear day or night. I wear them to work and get compliments everytime. Very comfortable and supportive. June 3, 2014
Great shoe for any outfit This shoe looks great and is comfortable enough to wear all day while at work. Although other reviews mentioned needing a smaller size, my shoe size fit well. May 31, 2014
Elegant shoe! I love the way this shoe looks! It really finishes an outfit. I listed it as 1/2 size larger because I couldn't get the sliding scale to register between "true to size" and "half size larger." The truth is that the shoe runs a little large, but not a half size. i considered exchanging them for the next size down, but opted for heel strips instead, and they are just fine. May 14, 2014
Love (and comfort) at first sight I saw these shoes online, went into the store, tried only this one pair, and walked out with them. I've been a Clarks customer for a long time and find that their shoes are consistently a solid quality, are supportive (for flat feet) and comfortable right off the bat. For those with bunions though you want to make sure that the fit is ok. So while I have flat feet that get tired and some bunions (thanks to wearing bad heels in my teens and twenties) and am no longer able to handle heels, this one was comfortable right away and I can't wait to wear it and flaunt my legs at an upcoming high school reunion... May 5, 2014
great fit love the comfort i can walk all day on these heels January 8, 2014
Nice peeptoe shoes I have plantar fascitis, I have lots of high heels all of them give this pain, I thought I will never was going to be able to wear high heels but this beautiful and elegant peeptoes shoes saved me, I WEAR THEM AND NO PAIN!!!!!! I just wanted to jump in them, THANKS CLARKS!!!!!! I Am so happy !!!!!!!! February 6, 2014
Beautiful Shoes Absolutely beautiful shoes. Wish they came in additional colors & I could afford more of them :) December 30, 2013

Very nice work shirt and the slim-fit label is true. My husband has me order these because all other shirts look like balloons on him. They are nice quality and wash and wear nicely. While the label says don't tumble dry we do anyway. These are the only shirts I have ordered for him over the past few years for work and they stand up nicely to weekly washing and drying.
Very nice dress shirt for the price, and not too long that you can't wear it untucked. It is fairly see through as most white dress shirts are and the buttons are not sewn on very well (I had to reattach one before even wearing the shirt out of the house). Some shirts claim to be slim-fit but don't quite fit the bill, but this one is slim enough for me.

Worcestershire health body throws support behind carers initiative
12:52pm Friday 6th June 2014 in News
AS PART of next week's national Carer's Week a Worcestershire health body is encouraging people in the county to pledge to support those caring for family members.
NHS South Worcestershire Clinical Commissioning Group has thrown its support behind the Carers Week Quest – an initiative aiming to improve links between communities and reach out to those who may be missing out on support.
The CCG's chief clinical lead Dr Carl Ellson said it was important to recognise the invaluable work carried out by the UK's 6.5 million carers.
"An event like Carers Week provides us with an opportunity to celebrate the dedication and devotion carers provide on a daily basis," he said.
"The Carers Week Quest is an excellent way of showing your support and to help raise awareness of the great work that carers are doing across south Worcestershire.
"As the age of the population increases, many people are taking on the role of carer to family, friends or neighbours.
"They do a vital job and without them our health and social care systems could not function."
Carers Action Worcester – an umbrella group of organisations supporting carers in the county – will be on hand at a range of locations including The Guildhall, community hospitals in Pershore, Malvern and Evesham and Morrisons in Covercroft Road, Droitwich throughout the week offering help and advice.
For a full list of locations visit www.carersworcs.org.uk/images/cnsummer2014.pdf.
For more information on carers week visit www.carersweek.org.

You can ask for help but can't get it, social workers are quick to sympathise and offer advice but can't offer much practical help.

The Miami Marlins traded Ricky Nolasco to the Los Angeles Dodgers and chose not to pay any of his salary. In return, the Fish got a number of questionable minor league pitching arms. How did they...
The 26-year old will make his major league debut.
Miami Marlins fans will get a chance to see one of the additions from the Ricky Nolasco trade, as the Marlins promoted reliever Steven Ames in place of Kevin Slowey.

How Many Movies Will Be In "The Maze Runner" Film Franchise?
We just finished the first book in "The Maze Runner" series, which has been made into a movie hitting the big screen in September. We can't wait to see the novel by James Dashner turned into a film, and now we're wondering how many movies will be in the film franchise.
There are four books in the series:
The Maze Runner
The Scorch Trials
The Death Cure
The Kill Order (Prequel)
Do you think each of the books will be turned into a movie? Or perhaps some of the novels will arrive as two movies each…
Watch "The Maze Runner" trailer below. Let us know if YOU have read the series, and tell us how many movies YOU hope to see by Tweeting us @Disney_Dreaming!

Well, my 42" Samsung Plasma (which I only owned for a year and a half) finally bit the dust a few days ago. Needless to say, I have been spending the better part of a week shopping around. After looking through mountains of televisions, I finally decided on a 32" Panasonic Viera 1080P LCD. Plenty big enough for me, I wanted to go LCD this time around and the Viera line has a great rep.
The way I see it, I was way over due for an upgrade anyway. As my Plasma was a 4 year old 1080i that I bought used from a friend. It served it's purpose well for the past year and a half and I more than got my money's worth out of it for the sum I pad for it ($150.00). At any rate, I bought new without hesitation this time and should have it by the end of the week. I feel like a kid waiting for a new toy.:P

My perspective is based on a simple phrase: "Your License Is Your Interface." He adds, "A license similarly defines the interaction between the software, or more precisely the creators of the software, and users. Just like an interface, a license defines intended behavior of users of the software, such as the four essential freedoms or the ten pillars of the Open Source Definition. Just like an interface, a license prevents unintended behavior of users of the software, which depending on the open source license, may disclaim the original author of liability for use of the software, prohibit redistribution without recognizing the original author or prohibit distribution of derivatives under a more restrictive license.

The Capture of Mazatlán was a Mexican victory during the Maximilian Affair. Mazatlán was a key port of the Pacific trade routes yielding between $4 million - $5 million a year.[2]
First battle[edit]
After his arrival in the city, Colonel Gaspar Sanchez Ochoa rapidly fortified the north land entrance of the city at the foot of the Nevería hill of on the north side, extending to the old harbor. On the opposite side, towards the town, he set up his headquarters, to the beach, he installed some small pieces of artillery and groups of soldiers were placed in reserve in a well situated position to the west, where there are three islands close to the side the old port.
On 28 March 1864 the French flagship La Cordelière appeared near the center island, signaling between the French war vessels and boats which were about to land artillery and troops. French ships were being spread to a half circle around the shooting range of the port. At first all the boats advanced a league forward and unleashed their fires while approaching the Mexican positions, which was answered by six batteries commanded by the Captain Benitez Martial. Then a group of boats evaded to the left and only three boats remained in front of the total fourteen and landed the troops. Captain Marcial Benitez stayed on the beach, with two batteries to face the ships, while Colonel Gaspar Sanchez Ochoa with four pieces, commanded by Artillery Captain Jose Gamboa, and two battalions, advanced to confront those who had just landed and went by land. He proceeded quickly by ordering his troops to march at double time and to open fire, then switched into "battle formation" and following an artillery strike, and a series of gunshots; the French soldiers fled toward the boats.
The victory by land had been of greater importance, though an unfortunate accident halted the enthusiasms of the Mexicans for a few minutes. The first captain of Engineers Miguel Quintana, responsible for putting the pieces of battery to shell upon the invaders who came by land, along with Lieutenant Cleopas Tagle, also of Engineers, wanted to personally roll some cartridges to position, when those exploded under unclear circumstances, and a grenade left Quintana seriously injured, three other gunners and a sergeant wounded and one soldier dead. Meanwhile the French boats rowed back to the ships with the surviving landing forces carrying their dead and wounded.
The battle continued on the 31st when La Cordelière positioned itself to half firing range to face the fortifications, picked up her sails, triced up her war flag and hoisted her signal fire, and proceeded to launch 120 pounds bomb into the city, injuring some workers and regulars. Colonel Ochoa rode to the shore with the only piece that had a wider range, commanded by Captain Benitez Martial. He exchanged shots with La Cordelière for six hours with its 80-caliber cannon, until the French ship was covered in smoke and fire. The French flagship's inaccurate shots failed to do much damage in the forts or crew. Late that night, governor Jesus García Morales arrived on the scene and observed the combat as well as the British war sloop-of-war Charybdis and Lancaster of the American Navy. La Cordelière had to obey to the damages done to its deck, doused the war flag, and withdrew to the nearby island of Islas del Venado.[3][4]
The takeover of the city was preceded by a naval blockade dating from mid-April 1864 and a four-way oligarchy regarding the control of the city within the juarista party. In May Plácido Vega, 3rd division central army General and his volunteer garrison guarded Mazatlán.[5] In October 1864 Jesus García Morales the liberal governor of Nuevo León[5] and one of his officers Ramón Corona both dedicated to take supreme control of Mazatlán and had internal disputes that resulted in Morales putting an arrest warrant on his officer for misappropriation. On 10 October Ramón Corona was residing in the Presidio some miles away south-east of the city. He emptied the fort the next day and moved to the direction of Los Urias halway to Mazatlán and asked Morales to officially surrender to him on 15th. Morales declined it and issued immediate war preparations against his fellow rebel officer. He mounted all the guns of the port (48 pieces) to the land passage into the city. His 500-strong garrison faced 600 infantry and 200 cavalry. Corona also had 1000 reinforcements put on reserve. At 2 a.m. Corona launched an assault from the south 1.5 miles far from the city center. His army easily broke through the first line of defense of the artillery. After a very short close combat Morales' soldiers retreated in disorder. Corona claimed the city for himself and arrested Morales personally. Altogether 18 Republicans were killed and 15 more wounded just before the arrival of the French forces.[6] Antonio Rosales governor of Sinaloa arrived to the scene in late October and subdued the city for himself overthrowing the sovereignty of the previous pretenders. Seeing this situation the inhabitants were favoring a French occupation therefore.[7] On the 24 October three French warships, the Victoire, D'Assas and the Diamant departed from Acapulco with two Zouve companies (250 riflemen) led by Gustave-Joseph Munier, 150 marins[8]:458, and 70 Egyptians on board.[9] under the command of Captain Thomas Louis Le Normant de Kergrist. Manuel Lozada, an Imperialist officer approached the vicinity of the town from the inland and waited for the enclosure by the French navy. The city began its evacuation and the population flee away from the coastline. On 12 November the Pacific Naval Division reached the port and was greeted by Commander Rosales under the flag of truce. Negotiations started on the very day and ultimatum was handed over by the French with a deadline of 13 November. A second written notice was then sent further threatening the Mexican command that any resistance would have resulted in immediate hostilities that'd have also affected the neutral (mostly American) ships in the harbour. Rosales replied with putting the coastal batteries on alert whereas they could have fired on any ship coming within their range. Next day at six o'clock the frigates started the shelling of the houses damaging several of them. The Republican commander escorted by the local consuls sailed to the flagship on a boat to inform the French high command that they had fulfilled the criteria for surrender the previous night and thus evacuated Corona's garrison as requested. French troops landed and Lozada's men (a force of 5000 soldiers[10]:191) seized the city. One American citizen was shot on sight. Connection with San Blas and Zacatecas was established and weapons trade and carrying of any arms were prohibited.[11]
Advocate for surrender General Corona tried to retake the city three times unsuccessfully in 1866.[12]:194-195 Only after Lozada's defection and disbandment due to unpayment could the liberal forces regain possession of the city on 13 November 1866.[13]:249
