Curves 'N' Turns
CURVES 'N' TURNS – Trailer from CURVES 'N' TURNS on Vimeo.
Everything´s getting faster and faster nowadays. This project was an experiment to slow down living, or rather try to find a way of going slowly and to experience travelling to the fullest. By bike from the southern part of Austria to the mediterranean sea like Liguria and Sardegna was the first part of this adventure. Another very important goal was to catch up with local people, to immerse deeper into the local culture and to find waves in a country which isn´t that famous for surfing.
I'm a sucker for bike touring and surfing (though I don't even surf), so this movie looks rad. Coming Spring of 2015.

Riding the Ronde
Anyone with even a passing knowledge of road racing heritage knows of the Ronde Van Vlaanderen (Tour of Flanders) and the epic Belgian farm roads and cobbles that make up the route. A couple of years back I had the unforgettable opportunity to ride throughout FLanders and on parts of the course — this video by Joe Baur helps bring it back.
245 kilometers? Cobbled climbs? No problem!
For reasons beyond my comprehension, BMC Switzerland graciously selected me to join five other cyclists from across the globe to join their granfondo experience, more tortuously known as the Ronde van Vlaanderen. Here I document my experience with a bit of Ronde history mixed in for flavor.
Indeed, cycling here does not suck. And someday, I hope to be back on the cobbles of Flanders.

I love his unpretentious approach to riding, sans brand name dropping, or over-romanticized notions of what it is to ride. He's just a dude enjoying the bike.

Cycling Central Switzerland
Contributor Joe Baur documented a three day ride through his ancestral home in Switzerland, a great look at somewhere many of us haven't had the chance to ride.
There is simply no better way to explore a new country than by bike, especially when that country is Switzerland. Luckily with some help from MySwitzerland and SwissTrails, we were able to spend three-days cycling along the Lakes Route that stretches from French Montreux on Lake Geneva to Bad Horn in the northeastern border of the country.
The alpine nation has always held a special place in my heart. It's where the Baur family name comes from, so you all have Switzerland to thank for my existence. Please, hold your admiration until the end, folks.
In reality I'm mostly an ancestral mutt at this point, but I've always most identified with my Swiss roots. After cycling the country, I can see why. The smooth countryside roads, the historic and walkable cities, the trains, the mountainous outdoors — this feels like home. The Swiss live the way I try to live in the States.

Back in December there were reports that Keira Knightley's relationship with Rupert Friend was in the rocks. Today her father confirmed that the celebrity couple has decided to end their five-year romance and that it was mutual.
Keira's father Will Knightley said in a statement to The Sun, "Yes, they have broken up. But that's the way things go, unfortunately. The only option is to get on with things." Talking to the tabloid from his Richmond, South West London home, Will added, "They were together for quite a long time and it is always hard breaking up. She's focused on her work."
Keira has completed the filming of "A Dangerous Method" which is due to be released in the U.S. later this year. She is also rumored to be in the shortlist of "The Dark Knight Rises".
Keira and Rupert met in 2005 when they worked together in "Pride and Prejudice". They have fueled the speculation of a split when he was seen attending the London Coliseum gala production of English National Ballet's "The Nutcracker" in December 2010 with his mother in his arm.
A pal said they had a heart-to-heart conversation before Christmas. Rumor has it, the pressure of public attention had driven them apart. "Rupert hates the idea of being followed and photographed. Keira partially had to accept it because of her rising profile," a pal said. "It affected the harmony in the relationship. The pressure took its toll and both decided they should go their separate ways. They will remain life-long friends."

Cabrera's historic chase paces Tigers title
October, 2, 2012
By ESPN Stats & Information | ESPN.com
John Rieger/US PresswireMiguel Cabrera hit his 44th homer on Monday to help the Tigers clinch the AL Central.
This is the Tigers fifth division title since divisional play began in 1969 and the 14th postseason appearance all-time for the franchise.
It is the first time since 1934-35 that Detroit has made the postseason in back-to-back seasons. The only other consecutive postseason appearances in franchise history came when the team made three straight from 1907-09.
Miguel Cabrera continued his historic Triple Crown pace, going 4-for-5 with his AL-leading 44th home run. His 44 homers are tied with Hank Greenberg (1946) and Cecil Fielder (1991) for the fourth-most in a single season in Tigers history. Greenberg set the franchise record with 58 dingers in 1938.
Cabrera currently has the outright lead in all three Triple Crown categories. The last player to win the Triple Crown while having sole possession of first place in each of the three stats was Frank Robinson of the Orioles in 1966.
Three of Cabrera's four hits, including his home run, were to right field. It's the first time since 2008 he's had three opposite-field hits in a game and the fourth time overall in his career.
His 44th homer came on a pitch on the outer third of the plate, marking just the sixth time this season he has homered on a pitch away. Three of those six longballs have come since September 15, and he is now hitting .368 and slugging .947 on outside pitches since that date. Prior to the middle of September, he had a .244/.398/.325 line in at-bats ending in those pitches.
Rick Porcello snapped an eight-start winless streak with his five-inning, one-run effort and won his 10th game of the year. He is the sixth pitcher since 1900 to post at least 10 wins in each of his first four MLB seasons before his age 24 season (age as of June 30).
The others to do this were Chief Bender (1903-06), Bert Blyleven (1970-73), Dennis Eckersley (1975-78), Dwight Gooden (1984-87) and CC Sabathia (2001-04).

We're trying to migrate a .Net 3.5 solution into .Net 4.0, but are experiencing complications with the testing frameworks that can operate using an assembly that is built using version 4.0 of the .Net Framework.
Previously, we used NUnit 220.127.116.11 and NCover 188.8.131.52 within our NAnt scripts, but NUnit 188.8.131.52 doesn't like .Net 4.0 projects. So, we upgraded to a newer version of the NUnit framework within the test project itself, but then found that NCover 22.214.171.124 doesn't support this version of NUnit.
We get errors in the code saying words to the effect of the assembly was built using a newer version of the .Net Framework than is currently in use, as it's using .Net Framework 2.0 to run the tools.
We then tried using Gallio's Icarus test runner GUI, but found that this and MbUnit only support up to version 3.5 of the .Net Frameword and the result is "the tests will be ignored".
In terms of the coverage side of things (for reporting into CruiseControl.net), we have found that PartCover is a good candidate for substituting-out NCover, (as the newer version of NCover is quite dear, and PartCover is free), but this is a few steps down the line yet, as we can't get the test runners to work first!!
Can any shed any light on a testing framework that will run under .Net 4.0 in the same way as I've described above? If not, I fear we may have to revert back to using .Net 3.5 until the manufacturers of the tooling that we're currently using have a chance to upgrade to .Net 4.0.

Real Wedding: Sheldon & Houston
Sheldon and Houston had a romantic, intimate destination wedding in St. Barths that turned out so gorgeous and sweet! Sheldon wore the adorable Powdered Sugar shortie by Sarah Seven and paired it with a delicate sparkly sash by Untamed Petals, both from our Lovely DC store. The palms, the white sand, the beautiful smiles…every detail was just perfection and we are so happy for these two love birds!
Tell us about THE dress and what inspired the look:
After deciding that we were going to do a destination wedding venue I knew I wanted something that would be light and airy but not your typical beach gown. I wanted a look that would be practical for a ceremony on the beach but would still mirror the chic style of St. Barth. When I found the Sarah Seven gown I knew that was the exact gown I had imagined for my big day. The short cut of the dress and the structured material were an exact match for what I had envisioned.
What were the most important details to pulling of your dream wedding?
Because our wedding ceremony was literally a "party of two" including only my husband and myself I was able to really focus on the details that were most important to me. I was lucky enough to be able to spend a year and a half choosing the perfect gown, shoes, photographer, and bouquet. I was able to put all of my time and energy into perfecting these aspects of the wedding day and never had to bother with any of the not-so-fun parts of planning a wedding. I have to say that everything turned out better than I ever imagined.
What was the most memorable moment?
We did a first look before we went to the beach for the ceremony and that was by far my most cherished memory. Being able to have an intimate moment with my husband-to-be prior to our ceremony was to me far more important than a grand entrance.
If you could give future brides any advice, what would it be?
My best advice is to not sweat the miniscule details of your wedding. Big or small, every wedding planning process can be overwhelming, but as a bride you should not forget that the wedding day is about you and your husband and that your day will be perfect even if a few things do not go according to plan.
Dress: Powdered Sugar by Sarah Seven from Lovely DC
Venue: Hotel Le Toiny in St. Barth
Photographer: Pierre Carreau
Wedding Planner: Nelly Roussel
Shoes- Mimosa T-Straps from BHLDN
Sash: Untamed Petals
Bouquet: Bloomy Fleuriste Sur Mesure
Real Wedding: Casey & Jason
This particular wedding is a bit near and dear to our hearts…Casey was our first ever bride to purchase her dress from Lovely Philly after we opened last year! She finally walked down in the aisle in her beautiful Sarah Seven "Cherry Blossom" gown and we just love how she styled her whole look.
Tell us about THE dress and what inspired your look.
I knew I wanted something simple, but different. I was tired of seeing the same dresses on EVERY bride. Lovely had so many different styles and it made the decision-making process hard, but in a good way! The other bridal salons seemed, for lack of a better word, "crunchy". All the dresses were in bags and so heavy and the materials were so bleh! When I put on the Sarah Seven dress it was just perfect. Unique, soft and beautiful and having her there sweetened the deal! Not just because you get a discount when you buy a dress from the featured designer, but it was really special to have her there to see her design and we both teared up when I "said yes to the dress"!
What were the most important details to pulling off your dream wedding?
I just wanted my wedding to be fun for everybody. I didn't want to waste time or money sweating the small stuff that ultimately no one would even notice. We DIY'd what we could and called in friends and family for a little help when we needed. It was about the big details and not going over the top. It was perfect for us and everyone told us it was all the best parts of weddings without all of the filler!
What was the most memorable moment?
For me hands down the best moment was seeing Jason for the first time. I wasn't expecting my nerves to get the best of me, but they did. I was in full on panic attack when all the attention was starting to get to me. My mother and sisters were there to talk me down a bit, but I eventually had to lock myself in the bathroom and call Jason. He was feeling the exact same way and just told me to hurry up and get ready so we could just be together. Once I saw him, all the nerves literally melted away!
A close second was our ceremony. One of my best friend's and I wrote out the whole ceremony and he officiated it. It lasted about ten minutes, but covered all the important stuff. I had my college roomies do a quick reading (A Lovely Lovely Story – if you have never read it, you should if you are looking for something a little non traditional, but sweet and to the point! http://www.eclectic-unions.com/2011/01/reading-idea-a-lovely-love-story/) Another quick note- Pennsylvania is weird about non-clergy or official officiants not doing the wedding. My friend was licensed online, but it wouldn't be legal in PA for him to marry us. A super easy way around that is a self uniting certificate. You get it at City Hall instead of the normal marriage license. It costs like $10 more, but once you sign it, you're married – so we just incorporated it into our ceremony.
If you could give future brides any advice, what would it be?
I work with brides on a regular basis in my line of work and the best advice I can give as someone who has been through it herself and works with brides regularly is not to fixate on the little details. You will drive yourself (and everyone you're working with) crazy! And seriously – no one will even notice that you have ivory table cloths and not white or even purple for that matter. If you have food, booze and music to dance to – people are going to have a blast! And people say it all the time, but soak it in as much as you can, because it really does go by in a flash. Enjoy the day and don't look for things that could or are going wrong – it will just ruin your time and everyone else's who is trying to make sure you're having a perfect day.

Real Wedding: Alicia & Brian
Alicia and Brian's Los Angeles wedding at Marvimon was such a dream! From the lush greenery to the pop of red in the florals, everything was sophisticated, elegant, and modern. We asked the bride to tell us some of her favorite details about the day and why she chose her fabulous Watters gown.
Tell us about THE dress and what inspired your look.
I knew I wanted something simple and feminine. When I saw it I fell in love instantly with the sheer lace top, embroidered beading, and plunge back. I loved the way the layers of the skirt flowed when I moved and the how the amaretto colored slip gave the perfect nude peak-a-boo color underneath. What sealed the deal was how comfortable and light it was! It was love at first sight.
What were the most important details to pulling off your dream wedding?
It was definitely incorporating goofy and fun details into the wedding that made it so us. For example we have a weird love for all things bunny rabbits, so there were gold bunny table numbers and ceramic rabbit people as our cake topper. There were napkins with fun facts like "Sharks eat people for fun" because if you know Brian, you know that he is convinced that if he goes in the water, a shark is going to find him. We had movies we love playing in the background – Moulin Rouge during dinner, and Tron during the dance party and also handed out glow sticks, blinky light glasses and foam light sticks. We love a great party!
What was the most memorable moment?
For both of us, it was when I walked down the aisle. We played our song, "Such Great Heights" by Iron and Wine, and walking past all the important people in my life was incredible. Plus we had left noise makers like little trumpets, cow bells, tambourines, and maracas on the chairs and everyone was going crazy with them as I walked! It was so cool!
If you could give future brides any advice, what would it be?
Plan your wedding like a big party! We have an annual Halloween Party every year and our goal is for people to have a great time with friends and family and we planned our wedding with the same idea, just with a lot more people invited. It made the planning a little less stressful

Real Wedding: Ulana and Marco
Ulana is our first Lovely Bride to be married after buying her gown at our new Phildelphia Lovely. We love how she styled her Sarah Janks gown from head to toe. This couple just screams fun. You'll believe us after you look through what might be the cutest progression of first look of photos ever. From the beach photos to the reception festivities, this day was stunningly gorgeous.
Tell us about THE dress and what inspired your look.
My fiance and I spent a lot of time at my family's vacation home in Miami Beach and always dreamed of getting married there. We checked out a bunch of venues in the area, but when we saw The Raleigh Hotel, we knew that was it. The hotel exuded beach elegance with its classic art deco design that stood against a backdrop of striped furniture, outdoor string lights and lush gardens. It was perfect for creating a classy, but laid-back vibe.
I searched far and wide for a dress that would fit The Raleigh's theme, but kept striking out. When I stepped into The Lovely Bride Philadelphia, I knew right away I'd find my dress. It was a romantic dress heaven full of flowy, etheral gowns with elaborate details. My consultant, Ivy, immediately understood the look I wanted to create. She pulled a blush-colored Sarah Janks gown with gorgeous embroidery and flowing layers. It was perfect for beach chic.
What are the most important details to pulling off your dream wedding?
For us, it was the location. We knew we wanted to get married in Miami, but we struggled with asking our guests to travel far for our wedding as most of our friends and family were from the Northeast. Once we made the final decision to move forward with Miami, all the other details fell into place. By the time February rolled around, our guests were grateful to get away to a sunny spot during one of the harshest winters.
What was the most memorable moment?
My husband and I are both Ukrainian Catholic, where traditionally the bride and groom will see each other before the ceremony. Our photographer wanted to get some "first look" shots for us and found a beautiful spot. She was able to capture a series of shots that show every single emotion we were feeling at that exact moment -nervous, excited, relieved and happy. After spending the night and morning apart, it felt great to reunite with him during the all craziness. We knew we had each other for support that day and every other day after that. It was a great moment.
If you could give future brides any advice, what would it be?
Be prepared for things to go wrong and try to keep your head. One Ukrainian tradition requires the bride and groom to wear wreaths of myrtle on their heads during the ceremony. A family member got stuck in traffic with these wreaths and there was no way we could wait. Our fathers saw a bush by the church and made new wreaths on the spot. They turned out to so unique, lush and green, and provided a great story.
Also, this may seem like an obvious one, but try to delegate some "day of"details like food and music while getting ready. We were so caught up in the bigger events of the day that we scrambled last minute to pick some good songs and buy alcohol for the limo, and also make sure everyone ate throughout the day.

Real Wedding: Meryl and Brad
This couple wanted to have a classic, and intimate wedding. With that idea they concocted the perfect destination wedding accessible to closest family and friends at a beautiful resort that felt like a big family vacation. Meryl paired her stunning Lea Ann Belter gown with an Untamed Petals sash for just the right amount of glam.
Tell us about THE dress and what inspired your look.
I had no idea what I wanted in a dress and was somewhat dreading the process. I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived at Lovely Philly. The décor was just my style and there wasn't an overwhelming amount of all things bridal. My mom and I picked out a handful of dresses of course ladies at Lovely really know their stuff and the dress I fell for was one of their picks. The Lea-Ann Belter gown was simple with just enough details to make it feel special. I especially loved the bow on the back that added a touch of femininity but wasn't too frilly. Since it was my first shopping trip I wasn't ready to commit – but sure enough we returned later that day to purchase the dress. I enjoyed visiting Lovely throughout the wedding planning process and purchased both my veil and belt from Lovely on separate occasions.
What were the most important details to pulling off your dream wedding?
My vision for the wedding was for an intimate, classic and fun affair. It was important to me to have time to spend time with all of our guests. We decided to have a destination-esque wedding at The Raleigh in South Beach. The setting was classic, simple and truly perfect. The boutique hotel was filled with our guests, which made it feel like one big family vacation.
What was the most memorable moment?
The weekend was so incredible it's hard to pick just one moment. One of my favorites was signing the ketubah (Jewish marriage contract). Keeping with our theme of classic yet savvy, we signed the signed the ketubah in The Martini Bar – a South Beach institution that has been around for more than 70 years. The ketubah signing occurred before the ceremony with just our immediate families, witnesses (a couple of our best friends) and the Rabbi. We gathered around the mahogany bar, which was adorned with all the classic fixings for a drink, and shared a simple yet highly sentimental moment. After that rush of emotions I was elated and ready for the walk down the aisle!
If you could give future brides any advice, what would it be?
The best advice we received, and would pass on to all brides to be, is to have a date night before the big day. Brad and I went out the Wednesday before the wedding festivities started. Guests had started to arrive but we made it a point to carve away some time for just the two of us.

See the Cast of 'Ghostbusters' Then and Now
Even though we were first introduced to these guys back in 1984, to this day we still know that if there's something strange in the neighborhood we're gonna call...the 'Ghostbusters.'
Even though we were first introduced to these guys back in 1984, to this day we still know that if there's something strange in the neighborhood we're gonna call...the 'Ghostbusters.'
Due to the overwhelming response to the movie's premiere October 5th that resulted in two sold out showings, and people having to be turned away, Showplace Cinemas East has been kind enough to the let the filmmakers screen the film during a special one week engagement beginning this Sunday.
The 'Captain America 2' trailer is online and it's awesome. But, sometimes in these trailers, the action goes by so fast. That's why we're here! We went through the 'Captain America 2' trailer frame-by-frame and caught the best parts to bring to you in HD.
The weekly series begins with a free showing of the Disney Nature film, Wings of Life.
This prank/video was put together in an attempt to further promote the release of the new Carrie remake (coming out on October 18th). And it obviously worked, because here I am sharing it with you and, in turn, promoting the release of the movie.
What would you do if you saw an individual with telekinesis, which is the ability to move objects with your mind, freak out and started causing havoc? Well, since the remake of Stephen King's 'Carrie' hits theaters this month, an experimental prank was made to see how people would actually react in such a situation. Watch the outcome and how they made it possible here.
As part of the Bosse Field Classic Car Show Weekend, the Evansville Otters are inviting you to come out tonight and/or tomorrow night to catch a flick being shown on the field. How cool is that!
Grab the family and spend an evening enjoying the 1985 classic, The Goonies on the lawn of the Franklin Street Library absolutely free!
With our Lynyrd Skynyrd concert coming up at the Ford Center on August 1st, the title of this new movie caught my eye. Although the name of the movie is Free Birds - it's about a turkey who escapes the Thanksgiving feast only to be thrust into a plan to save turkeykind. Yep, nothing to do with a guy leaving his girlfriend because he's "got to be movin' on."
One of Lynyrd Skynyrd's most popular songs is 'Free Bird'. Hearing someone scream 'Free Bird' at concert, a ball game or a movie theater has become almost a cult phenomenon. It has also been done many times in movies and my all-time favorite example of this is from the movie 'Cars'.

The Central England/Cotswolds region
The Cotswolds are a range of hills in west-central England, sometimes called the "Heart of England". The name Cotswold means "sheep enclosure in rolling hillsides".
The Cotswolds are characterised by attractive small towns and villages, built of the underlying Cotswold stone (a yellow oolitic limestone). In the Middle Ages the wool trade made the Cotswolds prosperous and some of this money was put into the building of churches, leaving the area with a number of large handsome Cotswold stone "wool churches". The area remains affluent, which has encouraged the establishment of many high quality pubs, restaurants and antique shops.
Cotswold towns include Bourton-on-the-Water, Broadway, Burford, Chipping Norton, Cirencester, Moreton-in-Marsh, Northleach, Stow-on-the-Wold, Stroud and Winchcombe. The town of Chipping Campden is notable for being the home of the Arts and Crafts movement, founded by William Morris at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries. William Morris lived occasionally in Broadway Tower, a folly, now part of a country park. Chipping Campden is also known for the annual Cotswold Olimpick Games, a celebration of sports and games dating back to the early 17th century.
The Cotswolds is the largest Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in England and Wales. Whilst the beauty of the Cotswold AONB is intertwined with the villages that seem to almost grow out of the landscape, the Cotswolds were primarily designated as an AONB for the rare limestone grassland habitats as well as the old growth beech woodlands that typify the area. These habitat areas are also the last refuge for many other flora and fauna with some so endangered they are protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981. The uniqueness and value of the Cotswolds is engendered in the fact that five European Special Areas of Conservation, three National Nature Reserves and over 80 Sites of Special Scientific Interest are contained within the Cotswold AONB.
Stow on the Wold
Food and drink:
The village of Lower Swell is perfectly located for visiting the numerous pubs and restaurants in the North Cotswolds.
Within the village itself is the Golden Ball Inn, which was built in the 17th century and has been a pub for over one hundred years.
A mile away, Stow has numerous places to eat and drink, with a range of cuisines and prices to suit all tastes and budgets. For eating in, Stow has a Tesco and a Co-op for regular food purchases and, for a special treat, there are a number of delicatessens specialising in local produce.
There are many excellent places to eat and drink in the wider North Cotswolds area, with the major towns of Stow-on-the-Wold, Bourton-on-the-Water, Moreton-in-Marsh, Chipping Campden, Broadway, Burford and Chipping Norton containing a wide variety of tea shops, pubs and restaurants, catering for most tastes and budgets. There are also many traditional Cotswold pubs located in the lovely villages throughout the North Cotswolds.
The list below is a very small sample to give you a flavour for the wide range of attractions and activities that are available in and around the Cotswolds . Tourist Information centres are located in all the main North Cotswold towns.
- Blenheim Palace
- Warwick Castle
- Stratford-upon-Avon
- Hidcote
- Cheltenham race course
- Cotswold Farm Park
- Batsford Arboretum
- Broadway Tower Country Park
- Snowshill Manor & Garden
Activities available in the Cotswolds include walking, cycling, horse riding, golf, swimming and rock climbing.

"A great place for a reunion"
We had a brilliant time at The Old School House. The house was perfect for 4 couples and 3 children – total 11. The only criticism was that there was no shower, other than over the baths! But would definitely go again if opportunity arises.

What's everyone up to this weekend?
DH decided he didn't want to go to Houston! YAY!! So, we are just hanging out and taking it easy today. We hung up all of our pictures and watched some TV. It feels sooooo good to relax a little bit. The last week was crazy!
Oh, and I got a washer/dryer yesterday. I got them from some nice people on post who were PCSing. I tried them out this morning and so far, so good! They were way less expensive than buying new and they are only 2 years old! Woo hoo!
I'm not sure what's going on the rest of the day but if we don't do anything, I'll be perfectly happy! :)

Whoo hoo for a score on a w/d :oD
Yesterday we went out to Lunch at this place here that has the BEST crab cakes ever and this crack addicting Pumpkin Bread- our server was ultra cool and gave us a whole extra basket of the bread to take home. :oD
We saw Eclipse in the afternoon on base. Then got home RIGHT before a huge t-storm.
Today we're going to take the girls to see Despicable Me on base. :o)
