Morphe 12NB Palette - this consists of 12 eyeshadows in warm shades of bronze, chocolate and rust. Lily Lolo isn't a brand I mention often because some of their range contains carmine but the Laid Bare Eye Palette** does spring to mind for this swap. Jane Iredale have a number of palette options, I particularly liked the look of the Triple Eye Shadow compact which come in several colour ways. PHB Ethical Beauty have recently launched palettes and they are a Vegan brand. Finding palettes is a little tricky but you can certainly match the colours individually.
Perricone MD No Bronzer Bronzer - in the world of Green Beauty there are lots of cream and powder bronzers but I'm not aware of many liquid ones. There was one that did spring to mind, Dr Hauschka Translucent Bronzing Tint.
By Terry Terrybly Velvet Rouge in Lady Bare - this is described as a liquid lipstick and it's a nude shade. I'm not sure if we can match the By Terry formulation but there are many great natural and organic lipstick and lipgloss brands. Inika Naked Kiss looks like a great nude shade lipstick. Other brands worth checking out are ILIA, Red Apple Lipsticks, Nvey Eco, Lavera, Living Nature, PHB Beauty, NATorigin and Odylique.
MAC Lip Pencil in Boldly Bare - As with lipsticks the above brands also have pencils, others you can add to my list are Green People, Zao, Avril, Benecos.
Tom Ford Nail Polish in Mink Brulee - there are plenty of 3, 5 or 7 free nail polish brands on the market. A personal favourite is Little Ondine** but you can also look at Kure Bazaar, Zoya and Intensae.
Clinique Superbalanced Make Up Foundation - Mineral Powder foundations are my personal favourites but greener liquid ones are out there. I suggest considering Living Nature, Inika, Lavera, ILIA, Vapour, Dr Hauschka and Alva.
Clarins Energy Boost - A new launch from this brand but part of a range which offer to boost your skincare by targeting concerns. You simply add to other products in your routine and it appears (from photos) to be oil. In the Green Beauty market there are hundreds of amazing oils which can be used in a similar way. As the Clarins one has yet to launch I can't check ingredients but click here for a selection of oils I have reviewed.

By: Trace Hagan from May 13, 2013 @ 23:31 CDT
Raspberry Pi's long-awaited camera module will be coming to the UK come May 14. While the price is still unknown, the small, yet still capable, camera module will be available from CPC/Farnell come May 14. CPC/Farnell has already invited users who signed up for info on the module on the Raspberry Pi forums to preorder the device tomorrow.
If the device can be ordered tomorrow, it's likely we will also know the final price. Current estimations put the price at $25, so we'll see if that holds true. The camera is capable of taking pictures 2592x1944 in resolution, 1080p video at 30 FPS, 720p video at 60FPS and VGA at 60 or 90 FPS. One of the modules has made it into the wild and you can see the video it took embedded below.

Emanating from an original source that navigates the cosmic wheel of life and death, Gretchen Jones A/W 2012 collection embodies those transitional and eerily, lonely places that infiltrate our earthly lives and beyond. Jones created this latest textile-rich collection in the wake of her father's passing, and in turn, it reflects the prismatic mindscape of the complex (under) world that she personally understands and so vividly conjures as an artist and designer.
Each collection is a manifestation of Jones' current moods and tastes.
A/W 2012 was inspired by Through the Looking-Glass
and The Raven as well as the album, Desertshore by Nico.
Wednesday afternoon's presentation by Jones was held in a womb-like room at Chelsea's ROOT Drive-In with haunting spotlights beaming down on the models. The installation was staged on a medicine wheel of sorts with mandala patterns and new age rocks. Hints of the occult permeated the space while the opposing forces of life/death and past/present were alchemically melded in fluid continuity.
(photo by Ariel Clay)
Jones designed all of her own digital print fabrics, and they seemed to be ebbing with life force ala their soft abstractions and alluring hues. An Indian Ikat print illustrates a traditional Apache basket weave in the form of a snake, which Jones views as the 'molting' that has taken place since her father (who was part Apache) left the waking world.
(photo by Ariel Clay)
The collection's luxuriously long dresses and below the knee skirts seemed to represent the hope and vitality of a long life. Textiles are the real story for Jones – emotionally, they always hold the secret to where she is currently at in her life.
We loved this burnt orange lattice weave textile (photo by Ariel Clay)

Southwestern style also heavily influences Jones' tastes and harkens back to her free-spirited youth and the romanticism of the 1960's and 70's. This collection's pieces were accented by vintage Hopi, Navajo, and Zuni jewelry from Ruby + George, a family run business in Colorado (where Jones was raised). The custom-made felt hats from Little Doe, added an eclectic feel that mirrored the bohemian spirit of the desert vibe.
While in the process of creating this collection Jones was no doubt evolving out of the skin she has worn so resiliently. With A/W 2012 she continues to allow us access to her continued creative evolution and expression of emotion through textiles, fashion, and cool personal adornment.

A front page article in today's New York Times has made me wonder about my sanity. Actually, it makes me wonder about the sanity of the Bush administration. Could I really be reading the words I'm reading? The headline says, "Businesses Seek New Protection on Legal Front". You have to be a registered with the NY Times to read it, I'm afraid. But the first two paragraphs are telling:
Frustrated with laws and regulations that have made companies and accounting firms more open to lawsuits from investors and the government, corporate America - with the encouragement of the Bush administration - is preparing to fight back.
Now that corruption cases like Enron and WorldCom are falling out of the news, two influential industry groups with close ties to administration officials are hoping to swing the regulatory pendulum in the opposite direction. The groups are drafting proposals to provide broad new protections to corporations and accounting firms from criminal cases brought by federal and state prosecutors as well as a stronger shield against civil lawsuits from investors.
What are the Bushites thinking!?!? Skilling (the Enron honcho) was just put in prison for 24 years for his nefarious actions in that company. And it was the Enron fiasco, foremost among several corporate misdeeds, that influenced the government to toughen the rules on corporate activities. The Bush administration was right in there working for the tougher rules. Here's an article about some Bush proposals in 2003 for new regulations controlling business accounting practices.
That's why my brain is doing flips when I see that now they're ready to loosen the regulations. Don't they know that corporations are going to screw folks over again? Those regulations are all that protect us regular folks from getting ripped off by the baby Enron clones out there today.

Online marketplace Snapdeal has announced a 50:50 Joint Venture with an Indian television distribution company, DEN Networks, to launch a "TV Commerce" channel 'DEN Snapdeal TV shop', with an aim to create a multi-nodal electronic shopping avenue for customers.
The partnership is targeted at those customers who have limited access to internet services particularly in Tier 2 and 3 cities. Snapdeal aims to take its TV shop to 100 Million households across India over the next 12 months.
The channel is currently available for viewers on channel number 132 on the cable network and will be extended to other cable and DTH networks in the next six months.
DEN Networks Ltd. reaches about 13 million households in the country. Snapdeal will leverage this distribution network of DEN to provide customers an access to the an assortment of products across Home, Lifestyle and Electronics categories.
This TV-shop was launched as a pilot in September last year and has seen with a growth rate of 200 percent month-on-month since inception. This will directly compete with Star CJ and HomeShop18's TV shop, considering Snapdeal had already started reaching out to these non-connected consumers via the sponsorship of the show Bigg Boss, the warm up might aide in making this venture work.

Sustainability and Business Innovation from SAP
SAP offers free online courses at through a new program called Open SAP. The Open SAP education model gives learners an opportunity to study SAP technologies and network with other learners. The program is relatively new and currently offers ten courses.
Each Open SAP course has a set run time, start and end date, and final exam. Courses usually run 5 to 7 weeks. Participants are expect to complete weekly assignments and attend video lectures. Additional study materials such as slide decks and handouts are provided.
SAP offers courses over its own products and services as well as other operations critical courses. Sustainability and Business Innovation begins April 29, 2014. In this course, participants will learn about sustainability in context with other business units. Participants will learn how IT can help create competitive advantage while reducing cost and driving innovation.
Since this is not a developer-centric course, attendants need not be developers. Of course, developers are welcome to attend and encouraged to do so. No additional software or programming knowledge is required to attend.
Course Requirements (from the site):
- Basic understanding of business and administration processes
- Basic understanding of industry value chains
- Basic understanding of information technology (IT)
- Interest in sustainability
Completing all assignments (graded weekly) and completing a final exam earns a certificate of completion. The final exam is scheduled for the week of June 10-17, 2014. The course is free and open to the public. SAP claims courses are even compatible with tablet devices like the iPad. Open SAP hopes you'll spend your Spring and Summer studying with SAP for free.
Spider Oak vs. ownCloud
Cloud-based storage options are plenty. Consumer versions are no doubt well-loved and oft-used in your enterprise. Enter SpiderOak and OwnCloud. Each offers both consumer-grade and enterprise options.
Privacy demands a zero-knowledge service like SpiderOak. The service promises to know nothing of your user account and saved content. Privacy and security are among the services top priorities. Saved data is encrypted, user names and passwords are never available to employees. SpiderOak encrypts data during transmission and while it's saved on their servers.
SpiderOak offers cloud storage, sync, and backup. Data across multiple devices can be automatically updated and synced on a schedule you create. Access is available on every device you set up. They currently support Android and iOS mobile devices. Desktop support is available for Windows, Mac, and multiple Linux flavors.
SpiderOak delivers both a hosted version of its platform and an enterprise version. The enterprise version can be set up on-premises for tighter control of stored data. This large scale deployment option offers the same encryption technology as the consumer version behind your organization's firewall.
OwnCloud is a data sync and share platform delivered as a hosted platform at OwnCloud.com or on your own server. Like SpikerOak, OwnCloud's priority is securing your data against prying eyes. OwnCloud's enterprise solution is also available for use behind a corporate firewall. OwnCloud offers a solution to every organizations problem with consumer-grade cloud storage services.
Unlike SpiderOak, OwnCloud offers an open source version of its platform and is available as a quick install web application on multiple hosting services like Red Hat's OpenShift. Installation is quick and easy, usually done with one click. Keeping your personal data secure requires an SSL certificate. You'll be reminded to install one after installing OwnCloud. You will control your own cloud just as the name implies.
OwnCloud and SpiderOak enterprise solutions are an obvious answer to the consumerization of I.T. while fending off snoops of many kinds. Quick adoption of enterprise software isn't always easy when its difficult to use. OwnCloud and SpiderOak deliver a well-designed interface while securing data.
Automate the boring with Zapier
Zapier is an automation tool for web services that promises to zap the boring out of repetitive tasks by handling the work for you. There are zero promises of putting away the laundry or washing the dishes on the site so I'm not quite sure how they pull it off.
A closer look reveals a nifty IFTTT competitor with an edge – Zapier offers a paid tier. You pay to let them automate tasks on many of the free services you're already using. Fascinating, right? Unlike IFTTT, Zapier only automates web services. Home automation devices aren't available at Zapier.
Zapier works with a huge list of web services. You can automate the duplication of data many times over if you choose. Support for familiar services include Gmail, Dropbox, Wufoo, and RSS. You can even copy your work between Asana and Trello if you like.
Tasks like saving form entries to a Google Docs spreadsheet can be helpful if you prefer not to use a system's built-in support for Google or you want to avoid the dreaded weekly data export. I vote for the latter. Exporting data from some of these services takes only a minute or two but you must remember to do it on a schedule. Who has time to schedule a dreaded task like exporting form entries?
Zapier's slogan should really be something like "we automate the boring". Somehow the automation of boring tasks is exciting in its own way. You can marvel at your own cleverness while working on something only slightly less boring. Time saved, mouse clicks spared. Every mouse click saved is one that can be used on something totally useless later in the day.
What do you automate in your day-to-day activities? Do you prefer IFTTT or Zapier? Tell me in the comment section below. I promise not to automate my responses.
SAP's Curious Browser-based Development Tool
Choosing the right tools for mobile development can be difficult if you don't know where to look. It can be just as trying if you look in all the right places but only find snippets of information you must string together on your own. SAP offers a browser-based tool for mobile app development called AppBuilder. The browser-based tool is available free but you have to set it up on your local machine. Interesting isn't it?
SAP AppBuilder is ready to build web apps with the default set up. You must have the Android SDK installed if you want to create Android apps with it. Today, we're going with the default set up on a Windows machine.
- Install Node.js
- Open a command window and type npm to verify your Node.js installation is working.
- Download and unpack SAP AppBuilder to the desired location. You'll be running the program from this location.
- Run AppBuilder by double clicking run.bat in the directory you created for AppBulder.
- Using Google Chrome, open the AppBuilder interface by going to http://127.0.0.1:9009/ide/ares/index.html if it does not load automatically for you.
The AppBuilder code includes a few sample applications to get you started. You'll see these on your welcome screen. Creating a new app loads the onscreen code editor. You should see a familiar development environment layout in blue and gray. The editor gives you access to code or use a simple drag and drop interface.
If you'd like a more in-depth look at your installation options, refer to SAP's AppBuilder installation tutorial at SAP Academy. Learn how to create a new chart app with this chart app tutorial.
AppBuilder is easy enough to set up and run from your local machine but it feels a little backwards to do so considering the power of SAP. I expected a fully hosted version of this browser-based IDE when I first read about it. The developer center wasn't quite clear enough about the real location of this tool. A SAP hosted version could have data connections built in where developers need only enter login credentials to get started. This is an interesting development tool worth testing out.
Connect your mobile app to OneDriveMicrosoft
SkyDrive is now OneCloud, writes Ed Tittel. The service has a new name and new design. Early adopters got additional, free storage just for signing up or upgrading from SkyDrive. If your apps don't already connect to this service, you may decide now is a good time to make that connection.
Microsoft hopes you'll add OneCloud support too. They want users to choose OneDrive for all. I found Microsoft's own OneDrive iPad app lacking in features myself. Compared with the Google Drive app, it loses big time. OneDrive offers read only access to existing documents and that's disappointing.
Adding OneDrive support to your apps can be done through the OneDrive API. Code samples are available on GitHub. If you've never used the OneDrive API there's a course for that. Study the OneDrive API at Codeacademy for free. Free access to code samples and an API course are enough to pique my intrest in OneDrive for apps. The OneDrive API is available on Windows Phone (obviously), Web apps, Android, and iOS.
If you're really curious about the Live Connect specification used to connect Microsoft users to services, give the Interactive Live SDK a try. You'll move through core concepts, OneDrive API, Identity API, and the Hotmail API with an interactive code editor. You can modify code onscreen the run it to test your results.
Microsoft is obviously hoping to gain a large user base with the re-branding of its cloud service. Offering gigabytes of free storage and web access to some of its most-used programs are a good way to change user habits. I'm not a Microsoft fangirl but I do find myself looking for reasons to test its newest cloud offering (upgrade). Perhaps OneDrive re-branding is Microsoft's key to gaining access to the mobile market in new ways.
Earn a Certificate in Android App Development + Cloud Computing
Coursera now offers Specialization Certificates for around $200. Coursera Specialization Certificates are earned by paying for three courses and one capstone project. Courses can be purchased individually, as you complete them. Each course can still be taken free individually. Free courses do not count toward a Specialization Certificate, however.
The new Mobile Cloud Computing with Android specialization offers three courses and a capstone project.
Programming Mobile Applications for Android Handheld Systems focuses on connecting Android applications to cloud services. This course will cover the Android platform and development environment. The course includes lessons on application development fundamentals. Students will create applications in multiple lab activities. This course doesn't stop at a simple 'Hello World' app. Students will study user interface design, notifications, alarms, sensors, location, and more. This course requires at least some experience with programming languages. Familiarity with Java is recommended.
Pattern-Oriented Software Architectures: Programming Mobile Services for Android Handheld Systems is the second in this specialization services and focuses on connecting Android apps with a cloud backend. This course dives deep into cloud-based storage and synchronization methods. Content providers will also be covered. Students should be familiar with object-oriented design and programming.
Programming Cloud Services for Android Handheld Systems is the third in this specialization series. As the name states, the course covers cloud services for Android. Students will learn how Android apps communicate with cloud services and how to secure these communications. The course even includes information on connecting apps to Google Glass. Cloud services such as Google App Engine and Amazon Elastic Cloud Compute will be used.
Students must complete a Capstone Project on the Specialization track to earn a certificate. Details of this required project aren't posted online with the rest of the courses. Completion of this project is required.
If you're unable or unwilling to carry around your personal laptop and own an iPad, you can participate in your courses through the new Coursera iPad app. Earn your specialization certificate just a bit faster by watching a lecture or two during your lunch hour!
Mostly Useless Home Automation
In my last post, I wrote of the many security failings of modern, connected devices and appliances. You may have noticed many appliances and Internet-connected things were not mentioned by brand name in Proofpoint's detailed report. Until we know which appliances are most vulnerable we should continue automating every conceivable thing in our homes. Developing the right sequence of automated events will give you more time for important tasks like reading alert messages generated by your automated system of sensors and switches.
IFTTT Recipes for Home Automation:
Tell me when the dog gets up from a nap
Use your Wemo to detect motion after a quite period, then have it send a text alert to report movement.
Get out of an awkward conversation after the first painful silence.
Get a text message as soon as the noise level drops.
Dance Party for One
If you don't get enough text messages for your own light show, you can automate other parts of your home and have those appliances send you status updates.
Open a window NOW!
Caution: Not to be activated with the one above lest you open every window in your house and never reply to a new text message.
IFTTT users have created an impressive catalog of home automation recipes. Among them, I found none that address the coming zombie outbreak. I found no room sensors that detect movement and body temperature then alert the homeowner after checking CDC reports for zombies. We'll have to settle for a text message alert or a flickering light.
Thingbots Deliver Fresh Spam
Did your set-top box spam your neighbors over the holidays? Would you know if it did? Security-as-Service provider Proofpoint uncovered three large scale spam campaigns facilitated by unsecured, Internet-connected devices. All kinds of devices were affected and this is only one of many compromises expected as more dumb devices come online.
When we investigated the IP (connected to it over various protocols) we found that in cases where the device replied, the device at the IP identified itself as an IoT-type device (consumer router, home security system, home entertainment system, VoIP phone, Fridge etc. etc.)
Proofpoint says the trouble with many of these Internet-connected devices are unsecured ports or other open points of entry. Improper set up and the use of default passwords made compromising IoT devices even easier. No surprises there, right?
Additionally, the nature of the response indicated that the device had either an insecure default configuration or known vulnerabilities (eg, it was responding without requesting authentication at all, or accepting the generic authentication with which all devices in the class are shipped)
Connected devices are designed for ease of use, not with security in mind. Developing smart devices with little or no security isn't a very smart move at all. Connecting all your online accounts to all your home appliances might create a whole-house spam bot. Can you imagine what it might be like to find your favorite toaster has been blacklisted for suspicious activity? You might never Tweet your morning toast toppings again.
"Thingbots" are coming online and they work for the bad guys. Securing them can be as easy as keeping firmware updated and changing default passwords. Better still, skip the smart appliances until manufacturers build in better security.
Developing for the Box.com Platform
Box.com is an enterprise platform that offers a robust API for developers to create apps for use with its service. Box was once known only as a secure online storage service. It has grown into an enterprise class service that is available on multiple devices. Integrating your service with Box can be as simple as calling its official, open source API.
Obviously, the first thing you'll need to begin developing for the Box platform is an account. Box offers a free tier. You can upgrade your account to a developer account by going to developers.box.com (also free). Once you've upgraded your account to a developer account, you'll have access to create new apps and generate API keys.
Software development kits (SDKs) are available for a variety of platforms. You can choose from officially supported Box versions or a select few developed by the community. You can develop apps for mobile devices and desktop computers alike.
Box SDKs available:
Developing apps for the Box platform pays. In the summer of 2013, Box announced a new program that pays developers 15% of the Box per seat pricing to developers. Each converted customer earns developers a 15% cut of the paid Box seat price. This program gives developers additional incentive to entice new users to try and adopt their Box integrated apps. Complete program details are available at Box.com/rev.
Curious about developing for Box? Have a look at existing integrations and standalone apps already available before you begin: app.box.com/services.
Developing Malware in the Cloud
It's official, even the bad guys use legitimate services to host and distribute malware. Security research firm Solutionary discovered Amazon Web Services was among the most-used services. Cloud services in general were proven to be easy to use and easy to scale for legitimate customers and malware authors alike. Cloud services offer a quick path from set up to deploy. Scaling and automated service allocation assist attackers during large-scale campaigns. The Solutionary report doesn't mention neighborhood attacks of same-server sites and resources. If ever you have utilized a shared hosting environment you know it's quite possible to be affected by other users' activity.There has been no official word from companies found to have the highest concentration of hosted malware. Could your enterprise app be affected? Companies mentioned in this report are well-known mainstream hosting and domain registration providers who have remained quiet since the report was released. Long-held beliefs about malware hosting and distribution are dispelled in the report while others are upheld. The use of legitimate services is far more common than once believed. Will these revelations change the future of cloud computing? Might we expect higher prices and more stringent identity verification? I would expect to see such measures in a future where even trusted networks contain high concentrations of badware. Developing in the cloud is appealing for so many reasons yet, as the number of complex malware attacks rise, I find myself wishing for the good ol' days when we were all disconnected from the Internet. Analog communication and payment looks better with each new published attack. Photo credit: mailsparky

Of all the ways to dine out in Palm Beach with a sweetheart on Valentine's Day, doing so in a private oceanfront cabana—complete with a "spontaneous" multi-course tasting menu based on your on-the-spot-expressed food preferences—may be among the most lavish, unless your own plans call for uncorking a magnum of stratospherically expensive champagne.
For $600 at Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa (formerly The Ritz-Carlton Palm Beach), you can reserve one of eight ocean-side cabanas—actually, fewer than eight since some already have been reserved for Valentine's Day dinner—and a server dedicated to your little beachy abode will convey your and your companion's food-and-flavor likes and dislikes to Eau's chef team, which then goes about preparing an appropriate progression of four courses for you.
The eve also includes a bottle of red, white or sparkling wine, and a rose for those of the female persuasion. What it doesn't include: tax and gratuity.
For more information, call Eau at 540-4942 or visit www.eaupalmbeach.com.

If in Need of a Career: Green and Bear It
"[The panel] offered a lot of great, real-world advice on starting industries in the green business as well as people to contact," said Ryan Green, a senior electrical engineering and chemical engineering major. "I really hope they have more of these."
Bauer, a sustainability consultant and former high school environmental sciences teacher, spoke of starting his own consulting firm after retiring from teaching. Sustainable Earth Solutions works to advise companies, such as Perry's Ice Cream, how to take more green innovations into their business plans.
Fleckenstein and Vargovich both spoke of starting their own companies, Niagara Wind & Solar and National Solar Technologies, respectively. Fleckenstein concentrates on agricultural wind energy, while Vargovich looks into industrial solar energy.
"I'm really interested in alternative fuels such as biodiesel, solar and wind," said Sarah Lavin, a senior biology and geology double major. "I feel I got a lot of great resources like websites and names so I can look into my career."

Morning Swim
Some Winners and Multitasking
Why I Run
Help Me. Please.
Workout – elliptical easy 30 minutes. really, too easy if you ask me. but what am I gonna do. I'm not running until Saturday. there is only one stairclimber that is always in use. my hands are tied. default to the elliptical these days. it's really too bad you can't do an elliptical marathon.
I need help. In many ways.
I need help organizing my schedule, preferably in the form of a full time personal assistant to remind me of things such as: go to your daughter's kindergarten orientation this morning as well as find childcare for my son so that I am not chasing him up and down the halls at said orientation like I did last year for big sis. it's important. you should probably be there and not miss it. I missed it. even though it was in the calendar. anna will be none the wiser. she's just as clueless as I am. something about the apple and the tree.
truthfully, on Monday I appropriately stressed ahead of time that she had orientation and I needed to figure out that little scheduling snippet of the week. I promptly pushed it to the back of my mind to be 'taken care of later'. It was not taken care of later. I didn't know I missed it until I was reminded by a friend and the school secretary who left a message saying what kind of horrible mom are you that you missed your daughters orientation to such a milestone as kindergarten you should be ashamed we're sorry we missed you today, perhaps you could try to come into our Thursday orientation? not gonna happen. still no childcare for my little gremlin and anna is in school. unless you want to take cutie little gremlin Luke. I'm in.
I need help folding my laundry. there's just too much of it for one person to do. when I get to heaven, I'm going to ask God why there is so much darn laundry and where the heck does it all come from. the basket it always full. there is always a load in the wash. always a load in the dryer. always one waiting to be folded. no matter what. not nice.
I need help making certain decisions, one of which is what music to put on my new shuffle. so green. so friendly looking. so cool.
I decided I wanted to run part of this marathon with music. preferably the latter part. I know. I'm so on top of things and I'm so completely prepared. I do things so far in advance it's scary. 2 days before I leave and I have an empty green shuffle that I can't get to sync with my computer, no music other than carrie underwood, taylor swift (don't judge my music choice, but I know they are not going to help in the deathly realms of miles 21-26.2) and earphones I have never tried. fantastic. the guy at Target told me sometimes the earphones I got tend to hurt your ears after awhile. I was thinking, dude, I'm not worried about a little ear bud pain. that pain is nothing compared to the discomfort I am likely to experience at mile 24. and I'm not paying $30 for the earphones you think I should get. needless to say, I'm at a loss and don't know where to begin to find adrenaline pumping heart beating music. help me.
There is a good article, HERE, from Runner's world about the pros and cons of running with music. I think because I NEVER run with music, it could really help me keep my own thoughts out of my head. I don't want them there. kind of a scary place the last few miles of a marathon.
What I don't need help with is finding ways to make my life a little easier. that's a lie. I need lots of help finding ways to make my day flow like milk chocolate, but I do have a few ways that help me smooth out the day…
1. When there's just not time to shower before going to kindergarten orientation to dance class and missing orientation….(be warned – unshowered, makeup-less pictures of me with random products, because it's been awhile and I thought you should see some unshowered ridiculous pictures of me with products. fun)
neutrogena got beat out by generic. I bought neutrogena the first time, then this was on sale for like $2 less right next to it. how could I not? that's $2 that could go directly to the lululemon fund kids college savings for goodness sake.
2. For when there's not time to put on makeup. ever. tinted moisturizer. inexpensive version. so that I don't even have to feel bad about wearing it to the playground. once again, neutrogena saves the day.
3. For when you turn 30 and the eye wrinkles become a tad more noticeable and the regular stuff just isn't cutting it…
4. For when you take a sabbatical from protein powder, or just keep forgetting to order it, and need other non-meaty ways to get in protein (I opted out of this pic, egg whites stand alone)….
I'm thinking my body is made up mostly of egg whites at this point. light and fluffy.
5. For when the little guy only takes a one hour nap after being up at 5am all week and chooses to be a pissy pants crazy kid for the rest of the day…
TOTALLY KIDDING. I would never. even think about it. he's far too smart and would be out of that thing is seconds. we use binkies and froggy loves and big sisters and happy words for attitude adjustments instead. I was told in motherhood 101 that straight jackets were not appropriate.
this seems to do the trick. as does a little good, old fashioned American Tail. who doesn't love Fievel.
And the prep continues for long weekend travels with gammy and the little girls. Trying to figure out my silly little shuffle that doesn't want to cooperate. Getting some epsom salt and soaking in the tub. followed by lots of rolling and icing tonight. and then some packing. and folding laundry. and sleeping. and making mental lists of all the things I need to do – like NOT forget the garmin or the charger. very important.
This will probably be the last post before the race on Saturday, and even then I can't make promises of too much posting while in Nashville. And I am already calculating that I am short about 8 hours of time tomorrow with all of the stuff I have to get done. and a 6am flight on Friday. joy. gonna be tight. I'll make it work. sleep is overrated. among many other things. I'm off to soak in some epsom salt and hydrogen peroxide. fingers crossed.
happy running and racing and spectating and anything else that goes with running this weekend!!!
I'm not sure about you, Mr. McMillan
Workout(s) – yesterday – the replacement long run/2 hour and 15 minute cardio hop at the gym. in hindsight, this was probably completely ridiculous, crazy and unnecessary in the actual useful training aspect of a marathon- but mentally, it had to be done. I chose not to do the long run because of some sassy shin stuff going on. genius Katie decided that my "long run" was going to be the cross-training equivalent. I say it had to be done for mental reasons, because it was supposed to be one of my last long runs and I need to go into the marathon knowing that I at least put my best effort forward. The craziness that was yesterday's workout was : 30 min elliptical(3.75 miles), 50 min stepmill, moving stairs, hell on a revolving staircase…(6miles), 30 min elliptical(3.75 miles, shoot me now), 25 min stepmill(3 miles, if I didn't get off then, I was going to throw myself off the second level stepmill onto the moving treadmills below) 17 miles equivalent but nothing like running, so it doesn't really matter anyway and it's not even close to the 22 I was supposed to do, but let me be happy about it because I did the right thing by not running and protecting my shins from further destruction. done.
Today – don't get mad at me. I ran. I hadn't run since Thursday and my legs felt 100%. but that's not why I decided to run. I'm trying not to be the idiot that's all oh, I didn't run for like a day and now I feel fabulous and all healed and I'll go run 18 miles in my old shoes again. no. I'm trying to be realistic and smart and I don't think today's run was 100% stupid. I have read and consulted very wise resources (google and webmd do count) that said easy running on softer surfaces with minor shin splints can be helpful. I'm not going to go into anymore detail, nor am I giving you my sources. I gave myself a limit of 5 miles total, with 1/2 mile each of warmup and cooldown. I may have started to get anxious that I have not gotten in enough tempo runs, and I think I have ZERO runs at my marathon goal pace, or MGP for you fancy schmancy acronym people. I was also itching to try out the other pair of racing flats I ordered…
those pretty saucony's type A5. front and center. they have been calling my name for days. heaven on my feet, they fit like a glove. in love. I thoroughly enjoyed the musha experience, but this is going to be a tough one. they are very different shoes, very different fit. I might still be a saucony girl at heart. I think they might trump the kinvara for 5k's, half marathons. because I only did 5 miles in them today, I'm not positive on marathon distance, for me. I am considering it….I haven't made a final decision yet, but heavily leaning toward the saucony type A5 for the racing flat over the other two there…stay tuned….I did keep the mizuno waverider 15's for my daily trainer, long run shoe.
So I may have done those 4 miles at 6:48 pace, few seconds faster than MGP. and I might have felt wonderful, and giddy and like a little child let loose in a field of daisies – if little children in a field of daisies experience pure bliss and enjoyment. but I stopped myself in the middle of my sun shiny fantastic run, at my pre-prescribed time of 4 miles. I might have been hurting a little bit. and now I will take another couple days off. I promptly slapped some ice on those poor overworked, under cared for shins.
I might have some skin falling off due to frostbite, but my shins will be feeling great . blurry children are a common occurrence in our household.
then I wrapped them with some love and they are feeling mighty fine.
compression calf sleeves. don't leave home without them. they are my new bff's. they don't leave my sight. or my legs. these are cep brand. love them.
Rolling and more icing on the agenda for tonight. I'm going to keep pumping them full of TLC and take a couple more days off from running. I finally have a speedwork partner to do track work with, starting this Wednesday, that I am SUPER excited about. So I want to make sure my legs are ready to go by then.
and there goes the weekend….it's 8pm and I do believe this might be one of the first moments I have had to stop moving. in my home. this is why blog posts generally do not happen on the weekends. I also do believe I have some new readers taking a gander at my little blogger over here, so hello to you lovely people and thank you for stopping by. where you will find all sorts of nonsense about the craziness that is being a stay at home mom to three children ages 2-5, running like a madwoman to keep my sanity and so that everyone in this house survives, and trying my hardest the keep the kidlings and the hubs living a healthy, happy, fun-filled life along the way. don't be alarmed when you see things like this…
when timeouts stopped working, we discovered hanging them from the gutter was a far more effective form of punishment. I'm kidding. believe it or not, they love this. they ask, "will you puhleeeeeeeeeeese let us hang from the gutter!?!?!" ok. fine. one more time. I'm telling you, they are not human, these children that I gave birth to. they have no fear. and they are very strong. don't mess. especially with that little one on the end.
that's just some of the fun and crazy times that go down in the edwards' household. all in a weekend. let's list out the rest of the weekend and the thoughts for the upcoming week…
I totally forgot I ordered these little treats, and when they came I was so pleasantly surprised…I've been wanting to try them for months, and finally bit the bullet…
and then was a tad disappointed when I realized how small they were….
fits right in the palm of my hand. what? they don't come supersized like everything else in this country?? oh, you don't need a MASSIVE amount of food to supply the nutrition that you actually need?? got it. good stuff. I like the cute little packaging. these will be stored away for a rainy day/special treat snack.
2. I got to go out to dinner last night with the hubs and some good neighbor/friends. this is exciting on so many levels – it gives me an excuse to finally get out of my sweaty gym clothes and shower, and put on REAL clothes…
I don't have to cook, think about cooking, decide what to cook, clean up a big mess from cooking. wonderful.
and I get to enjoy a cocktail. or two. not three. that would be ridiculous. for me. two is pushing it. for one short evening out.
3. I consulted with Mr. McMillan. I'm not so sure about this dude. this activity would fall under pre-race anxiety/dealing with a minor "injury" and doubting my training activities. I punched in my recent numbers, which would be my last 5K and then my last half marathon. according to him, I'm at least 3 minutes off from reaching my eager beaver super ambitious 2:59:59 marathon time. I am sure he is a wonderful gentleman, and I'm sure he is very knowledgeable in all things running, and with all due respect, I hope he is wrong about my projection. I've been visioning myself running through the finish with seconds to spare just under 3 hours. then I start crying because I got my sub 3 hour marathon. so I guess if I don't actually get it with this next race, I've at least done it in my head during my training runs and speedwork. no I'm not crazy. I think visioning yourself achieving your goals is a really important part of making them happen. it solidifies something in your mind that makes you believe you CAN do it. whether or not it happens, is another story. but it gives you the extra push that you need when you need it. it takes practice, just like the physical training and running. but I don't think the vision of me achieving my goal is going to cut it. I will keep going until I get it. so bring it on McMillan. You say I'm off by 3 minutes. I say you may be right, but you may be wrong. I'm going to work hard to get rid of those 3 minutes.
4. I have completely fallen off of my training plan – and decided to take a look at what the next 3 weeks actually look like…
I would love to get that 20 miles in on Saturday. fingers, toes, eyeballs crossed that I am feeling fine to run it. not so sure about all of the other runs this week. I see a lot of cross training/strength training in my future. my basic running goals from here on out are just to get in 2-3 more speed/tempo runs and at least one decent long-ish run. that is all. anything above that is icing on the cake. I don't think that is too much to ask.
5. Every Sunday, I have high hopes of planning out the meals for the week, organizing my life and getting my act together. none of that happened today. tomorrow. maybe. I would love to only go to the grocery store once. I would even be ok with twice. but this 5 times a week nonsense has got to stop. going to the store at 4pm with all three kids, getting stuff for dinner that night is really just poor planning. I'm going to get back in the groove of planning. everything. Maybe I should start by visioning myself going to the store once a week and successfully planning out the weekly meals and daily schedules. then I will cry when that actually happens.
6. In my defense of poor planning, I feel like I have entered a new and changing stage with my kids. one that has left me in between the old and the what is to come, trying to figure out how to make things work now, because kids and their needs are always changing. as a stay at home mom, to 3 children, that are very close in age, very different in personality, and always growing and changing behaviors and developmental stages, I find that the way our day goes and the schedules we keep and the flow of daily life changes a lot. The toddler years are tough, and they require a lot of flexibility because toddlers (especially little boy ones name Luke) require a lot of attention. that means a lot of best laid plans just don't happen – like making plans in the first place. and a lot of energy is willingly and lovingly spent on these delightful little beings. which means sometimes at the end of the day when a lot of stuff still has to get done – it just can't get done. the energy is not there to do it. or to even think about it. and that's ok. so we go through these different stages all the time and keep adjusting. and keep figuring it out. all the while remembering that if it takes me 5 trips to the grocery store a week to get done what could take 1 trip, but I have given my little loves my time and energy in between – it's all good. and where someone else may have it all together at one given moment, it doesn't mean that I have to. eventually, I'll have a moment in time when my life is organized. a work in progress. and I will practice visualizing it until it gets there 🙂
Now, I know a lot of you out there had races this weekend, and I'm dying to know how they went!!!!
Leave a comment and brag about your race day! good or bad:-)

Colchester 1/2 Race Day Recap
Official stats –
30th overall out of 625
3rd female out of 221
6:46 pace
My stellar husband got up with tweedle dee at 5am, so I could sleep.
I slept until 6:30 when little cherub #3 came looking for me, and got to it. Of course I was not prepared and did not have coffee. Once again, aforementioned husband comes to the rescue with an iced coffee from the best little coffee shop this side of the Mississippi. or the Connecticut River. either one. This ensures things move on out smoothly before the race. That, combined with my staple pre-race breakfast.
quaker instant, flax, peanut butter. stick to your ribs breakfast
I usually add a little protein powder to the mix as well. I've been trying to get away from the pre-packaged oatmeal, and have been doing well with eating the real oats. but this was a special occasion. This is what I eat before any race. I was not going to mix it up today in the name of clean-er eating.
Typical morning followed – made breakfast for the crew – scrambled eggs, cereal, whatever else they demanded ordered asked for. I got myself ready. showered, makeup'd – I absolutely put on complete makeup before a race. it just so happens that I ran out of just about all of my makeup, and I have yet to replace most of it. the makeup today wasn't super nice. but then again, I wasn't going to walk the red carpet, so it wasn't the end of the world.
This was the original wardrobe plan for the race:
decked out in lulu. those are the wunder under legging pants. not made for running specifically, but phenomenal. did not budge. and the only pants that go to my ankles. in love. will talk more about them in a lulu post. I may have bought some other things. that I could not live without.
I really liked the 10am start time. We didn't leave the house until about 8:45, and we were still there pretty early. another thing I get crazy about – getting to the race with PLENTY of time. We were parked and unloaded by 9:15. I like to be on the early side. This gave me plenty of time to get myself to the little ladies room, and make sure my laces were tied and my pants were on. Last minute, I grabbed a long sleeve shirt and decided to change into it. It was REALLY windy out. the weatherman did not lie. the wind definitely came out to play today. I think it was about 40 degrees, but felt a lot colder because of the wind. I was happy I grabbed the shirt, but I would have been ok if I stuck with the short sleeve. I actually wished I had kept the short sleeve on about half way through, and then when the wind almost blew me sideways off the road, I was glad I had longsleeve.
don't mind me. just digging in my goodie bag for my sport beans and my gu.
The night before the race, my husbands cousin decided he would run with me. This made me really happy. FYI- he runs a 2:50's marathon and a sub 7hour, 50 mile ultramarathon. He has put in 90 miles this week, before the race. no big deal. and I also met up with another friend of mine that I didn't know was running. happy day.
The race started right on time. 10am sharp. straight into the wind. I think it was about 25mph. no exaggeration. and the wind continued head on for probably about 75% of the race. The course was a big loop. Let me refresh you one more time on the elevation map of this course. because you have only seen it twice this week.
The hills definitely joined the half marathon party today. I could not imagine them away. I wasn't even able to downplay them into smaller hills. They were every bit as horrible as they look in that map. I really try not to exaggerate, but I would dare say they were worse than they look. They were steep and there were a lot of them. Hills within hills. The race ended on a 2 mile climb with a significantly strong headwind. That many hills should not be allowed in one race.
I took my first powerade gel, I think it was tangerine, at mile 5. I'm surprised I didn't gag it back up. I usually can't do gu. This wasn't horrible, but I try not to let it touch my tongue so that I don't really have to taste it. I took sport beans around mile 11 – this was hard because they are just hard to chew and swallow without aspirating them into a lung. especially while I was chugging up a hill.
I was definitely the idiot who stopped running before I actually crossed the finish line. everybody was yelling at me to keep running the 15 feet to cross. I could have sworn that the mat I ran over 10 feet back was the finish line. apparently not.
The race was very well run, but very boring. and I don't need to tell you again it was hilly. to put it mildly. there were no spectators and it was basically running on roads through the woods. there was a bit of it on dirt/rock roads. back country.
We bolted right after the race. There were no medals, no t-shirts, no rewards. Nothing. This was great. I really don't need another race tshirt that I wont wear, or a medal that my kids will fight over. Unless I'm going to get 3 medals to pass out to the littles, I don't really need it. It only cost $12 to run it, and it's a not-for-profit race. I think there was a lot of food for those who stuck around, but after running and my husband trucking the kids around, we were ready to go -after a nice little shot with my cheering crew. It took a few to get a half decent one. no one wants to look at the camera at the same time.
this is just a hot mess. and get a load of that forehead vein. in full force today.
missing Alex. hello again vein.
as good as it gets
The nice thing about a half, is that you still have the rest of the day. to not relax, go to birthday parties, play with children and go to the 99 for dinner. My first choice was Red Robin, but the 99 was closer. 99 won.
I got a nice cobb salad, hold the bacon dressing on the side. good stuff. I really don't have too much of an appetite after a long run.
and now I am replenishing the muscles with a nice big bag of these. and some dark chocolate.
Race Reflections
After the race, my husband asked me, "So, what did you learn???" I like this question. As with anything we do in life, there are things to be learned. About life, about the particular thing we are doing at the time. About ourselves. Growth can happen. growing is good. I love to run. I love the introspection and life reflection that comes with it. I love how it allows me to dig in and figure out what drives me or what doesn't drive me. I love the physical challenge of it. I love the results, physical, emotional, spiritual, mental. This run kind of kicked off my racing for the year. I was excited about this. I have 49 days until my first marathon. I have A LOT of work to do to get sub 3. This is good to delve into my thoughts and figure out what's going on with me. Here is what I have come up with so far, to answer my husbands question.
Physical – hills are hard. I respect the hill. I am going to run a lot more hills. Physically, I conquered the hills today. I took the challenge of this hilly race, and finished it. Physically, I am capable of a lot more than my mind lets me believe. I felt great at the end of the run. My legs felt good, my breathing was good. I had no knee pain, or pain anywhere. This made me very happy. I think one of my underlying concerns is always injury. I'm always afraid that the next run or the next race will end in injury. Physically, I am strong. I want to get stronger to help prevent injury, and I can put that fear to rest. I have also put on about 10 lbs since my last race in the fall. 10lbs fell from the sky and landed on my hips. I am a female and my body kind of does what it wants. I call it my winter weight and my I'm almost 30, I have little control over my weight, weight. I was probably about 3-5 lbs under an ideal racing weight this past fall, but I felt good. Now, I feel I am about 5 lbs above an ideal racing weight, for me, and was having anxiety leading up to this run about how it would effect my running. I got rid of the scale. Out of the house. I have plans to do a post on this topic on it's own, but this was something I was holding onto leading up to this run. Regardless of the 5 or 10 extra lbs, physically, I felt great today.
Mental – I have a great respect for the power of the mind over the body. My husband said that my biggest challenge is not running a certain time, but overcoming the mental boundaries that I let determine my physical capabilities. I wanted to win today. I also wanted to PR. My last marathon PR was a totally flat, fast, ideal weather race. I thought it would have been a challenge to PR today. It also would have been a challenge to win. I wanted to win more. Today, at mile 5, a woman passed me. She was no more than 10 seconds ahead of me at any given time. She won. In the last half mile, another girl passed me up the last hill. She got 2nd place. I got 3rd. 14 seconds behind her. At some point between starting the race and mile 11, I let my desire to win go. Getting a PR was enough. And I am beyond happy that I took over 1 minute off my previous flat half, on an unbelievable hilly, cold, windy race course. That is a success. But I still let something else go that was within reach because my mind was stronger than what I knew I could physically accomplish. I do this over and over – I am ok with 2nd, or 3rd. I don't want to be. I look at the results and grow increasingly aggravated that I didn't push it harder at the end. 26 seconds between me and first place. That's less than 1/10 of a mile. I let my mind settle for something less than I am capable of doing. Last year, I wanted to run a sub 1:30 half. So I ran a 1:29:36. For the race today, I wanted to PR, by running less than a 1:29. I ran a 1:28:26. I let my mind limit my body. Those are the results below for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place women. I'm on the bottom. I don't want to be that close and be at the bottom. I want to be on the top. I can do it. I need to stop letting my mind get in the way.

Emotional – there is a process to everything. I guess I still kind of consider myself a 'new' runner, just starting to move out of the 'new' stage. I didn't seriously start running until after I had Luke. I ran before, but I didn't put the time into it like I have in the past 2 years. I have run more races in the past 6 or 7 months than I think I have run in the previous 3 years total. I am still figuring out how to run and what works for me. I definitely go into races, especially these smaller ones, wanting to win, or at least win age group. I think it is going to take a certain amount of time and some races under my belt until I figure out how to really want it. Like I said above, I tend to settle into certain goals, play it safe and let certain goals go when someone passes me on a race, and default to the next best while the first one is right within reach. It's going to take a certain number of 2nd, 3rd and 4th places until I've had enough of that and find the push to take more. I'm in the process. I think we are all in the process of something. whether it's actually the running, or the working out, or the job, or the family – whatever it is. We are always figuring it out and getting ready to take it to the next step. I have 49 days to keep training for the next race, physically and mentally. running is not my life, but it makes up part of my life, and it is important to me. Running certainly helps balance the other parts of what makes me move and groove.
I'm always happy with the race. satisfied. on a runner's high all day from running well. As the day goes on after a race, and I reflect on how it went, I quickly realize there was more to give. satisfied is not enough for me. This is why I run. It's always a challenge – in many ways. After I finished today, my daughter runs up to me and says, 'Mom, you won!' I said well, I got 3rd place for the women, and that's great. She said, 'yeah, you won, you got 3rd place!' and she's right. I ran. I finished. I won. It's always a win when you run, and you finish. no matter what the place. It's always a win when you get out there and do something. find in yourself what your winning something is and make it happen.
I would love to hear about your race stories and personal wins! Race season is coming up and I'm sure a lot of you have races coming. Feel free to share, and I would love to mention you on the blog! Also, feel free to email if you would like to read about a certain topic or have questions you want answered.
What is your biggest challenge in running?

Evaluate an icon is not an easy thing to do,as it is sometimes difficult to separate myth from reality,especially when we find something lost in the middle of a imansidão of beautiful landscapes,but it is there,with its nostalgic and romantic memories,an time it was and never return.
The place had its cosmopolitan grandeur after the first World War,when it became the summer residence of the family Karađorđević was briefly interrupted by the Second World War,after which Bled became a destination protocol,today the site is decorated as a destination for classic golf,one of the oldest in Europe.
This place of untouched nature,pleasant climate sub-alpine and thermal springs,Alpine offers a genuine experience,supplemented by an amazing cultural and architectural heritage.The picturesque hills of Jelovica,Pokljuka,Mežaklja Triglav and promote the setting of extraordinary beauty of Bled and its lake,considered as one of the hottest in the region.

Glad you liked Croatian beer. It is so cheap!
There is suitable accommodation for every budget, From 10$ for rooms and camps, all inclusive cheap socialistic monster hotels to beautiful Hilton right at the Dubrovnik walls, Esplanade in center of Zagreb or Hotel Peristil inside of historic Diocletian palace in Split (double 120 150$).
Mostar in Bosnia should be also visited, especially during diving competition from the 28 m high bridge. They have done amazing work to restore it after war destruction.
Bled in Slovenia is gorgeous, for a day or two visits. Many private rooms and hotels are located just around the lake.

Other than travelling with a very young child, you should have no real problems. Slovenia and Croatia are great. You don't say how you plan to travel, but the trains are fine, the roads tend to be narrow with limited highways. Both capital cities are nice small cities (Ljubljana is nicer n my opinion).
Bled (SL) and the rural surrounding area of mountains and lakes are incredible. Dubrovnik (HR) and many of the nearby islands are great, but I encourage you to take the ferry to/from Split versus driving over. You can easily take the train from Zagreb to Split, but the ferry or bus is the option from Split to Dubrovnik

While I sometimes long for the day when I no longer have to deal with unexpected Windows 10 behavior, there's something rewarding about quickly finding a solution. In the process, I often end up with an idea for a blog post I can share with thousands three regular readers. Yesterday I successfully solved an interesting case that opened when a customer contacted me a month ago and reported that the Photo app was no longer working on their 1709 reference image.
As Windows 10 Redstone 4 Update (1803) development winds down, it's the grandiose time to examine updated and new Group Policy settings. There is (obviously) no official documentation from the Group Policy team at this point and there might be quite a few changes to Group Policy settings before Windows 10 Spring Update hits RTM. Still, it can't hurt to poke around current ADMX files because there are truly several things duller in our line of work than comparing thousands of lines of text. Right?
There are many reasons why an organization would spend a lot of time on image creation and maintenance. Often, it's due to the lack of a standardized image engineering methodology. Whatever the cause, the experience of manually creating Windows images quickly deteriorates and becomes a time-consuming and difficult to manage organizational nightmare. However, using free Microsoft deployment tools and PowerShell you can greatly simplify the task of building and maintaining Windows images.
Join me at Microsoft Tech Summit on February 21 – 22 in Frankfurt, Germany, where experts from around the world present discussion panels, ask-the-experts sessions and breakout sessions and cover the latest in Azure and Microsoft 365 at a free, technical learning event for IT professionals and developers. The conference will be held at Messe Frankfurt. If you aren't familiar with it, the Messe Frankfurt is a great venue in a fantastic city that is located in the heart of Europe and entire Germany's road network convenes here, along with the largest German airport and train station connected to the venue. The Messe Frankfurt enjoys a central location, hotels and shopping areas are close.
After a few weeks off, I am delighted to announce that I have returned full time, once again delivering somewhat IT related blog posts, while neatly segueing in thirty-six thousand links to older articles at the same time, in the hope of gaining a few more hits for the internet's least widely-read IT blog.
As my regular blog readers will be aware (yes, all three of you), there is something increasingly traditional about me writing about my customer engagements and today should be no different. With the new way of building, deploying, and servicing OS introduced with Windows 10 (Windows as a Service a.k.a. Hustle as a Service) I often kick off customer engagements with a workshop for IT professionals addressing biggest benefits of adopting Windows 10 and detailing comprehensive set of intelligent security solutions which allow organizations to protect against security threats and to better protect user and company data against sophisticated attacks thus allowing them to align themselves with the GDPR requirements. By outlining these benefits heads on, I can often persuade my customers to adopt a comprehensive set of advanced security capabilities including, but not limited to Credential Guard, Windows Information Protection, Windows Defender ATP and BitLocker.
A key part of any complete end-to-end deployment project is analysis of the resulting logs to identify root causes for hiccups you may run into during your deployment process. This is part of the new "data driven" mentality because operating system deployment (OSD) is highly complex and contains many moving parts. You can save yourself a lot of time and energy if you know where to look for answers. I can't stress enough how invaluable log files can be in tracking down deployment issues!
A few days ago I stumbled upon a question on the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) forum where a user asked for guidance on how to install support for additional keyboard layouts using MDT. This post explains how you can add additional keyboards in Windows during OSD.

I had a grand plan yesterday (sunday). The plan was to get up, eat breakfast with the family and then drive all the way down to Falmouth to visit Pendennis Castle. We haven't had the chance to use our English Heritage membership for ages now, nor have we used our National Trust one, part of my genius plan was to make the most of everything.
But then, as always, I had another bad night and when you have terrible nights, plans do tend to fly out the window. Luckily though, all wasn't lost. You've probably heard me say this a dozen times, especially if you've been following my blog, the good thing about where we live is that you don't really need to go far to go to somewhere nice. So instead, of going to a castle built during the reign of Henry VIII, we ended up in Widemouth bay, a lovely beach not far from our little village.
It was a cold and blustery day, but of course, the little one hardly noticed it. No matter the weather, the beach is always a fun place to be when you're a child or a dog.
I love this photo of the three of them. I remember taking a photo similar to this one, but only it was of my husband and Mutt (our dog who died of bone cancer, before little T was born). If you're curious too see it, click here.
Poor sun. It was trying its best to peer among the clouds, but sadly, the grey was just too strong and stubborn to allow it to take more than just a peek.
And when it got too cold, we decided to take shelter in the nearby beach cafe for a little snack.
of yummy delicious hot-chocolate complete with whipped cream and choco flake…
Little T settled for ice-cream on top of waffle swathed in maple syrup.
As you can see, she quickly demolished the ice-cream. And when it was done and dusted, she wanted to head back to the beach for more fun and play.
Apart from the beach and the rock-pools, the nearby cliff also offers a few small caves where one can go exploring.
And it wasn't just people and dogs who were out enjoying the dry weather yesterday …
so were the horses.
I love sundays like this one. There's really no pressure to do anything or to stick to any plan. I'm actually learning now that the best memories made are actually the ones that were un-planned, that were spontaneous, and done in the last-minute… do you agree?

TeamCity is a builder that basically take on the likes on CC.Net but aims to make the process a little less painful in terms of set up.
A little painful is probably an understatement. TeamCity rocks!
In about 10 minutes I have a build server up and running, including install time! It was completely trivial. I use a build script (Nant or MSBuild) anyway so all I had to do was point source control, point to the to the script and I'm done. Completely painless.
For those not completely au fait with what a build server is, this is what TC is doing for me:
On check someone checking in code to source control:
- It gets latest from the source control
- Builds the code using my config
- Performs static code analysis
- Runs unit tests
- Run integration tests
- Deploys to a drop location, so our "tester" can always get a copy of what we are currently working on.

If you're looking for a warming Winter dish it doesn't get much better than this. There's also the bonus that after the initial preparation it happily cooks itself leaving you to get on with other things. These are slow cooked, braised, and sort of pot roasted as I used a deep cast iron pot with a lid rather than a shallow baking dish. I have tried other accompaniments but for me it's just gotta be mashed potato. Along with some crusty sourdough bread and a nice bottle of red, and who even needs to leave the house?
- about 6 lamb shanks (I allow one per person, but if you need to, add more)
- salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup of flour
- olive oil for browning
- 2 brown onions, diced
- 2 carrots, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 4 large mushrooms, quartered
- fresh thyme
- dry red wine, about 250 ml (I use Shiraz)
- one 700 g bottle passata
- 500 ml beef stock
- a little cornflour and water
1. Pre-heat the oven to about 150 Celsius. Heat a large cast iron or heavy based dutch oven style pot to a high heat and add a few tablespoons of olive oil. Season the shanks well with salt and pepper, dust with a little flour, and brown in the oil until all side are golden. Transfer the browned shanks to a plate.
2. Turning the heat to medium, heat a little more olive oil in the pan and fry the onions, carrots, and garlic until they have softened. Add the mushrooms and thyme and fry for a few minutes more, until the mushrooms have also softened.
3. Turning the heat to high, pour in the red wine and using a wooden spoon, deglaze the pan. Cook on high for a few minutes until the alcohol cooks out and it reduces. Return the shanks to the pan. Pour in the passata, and stir to combine. Slowly add the stock, using only enough to just cover the shanks.
4. Put in the oven and cook for about two and a half hours. Just before serving stir a spoon of cornflour into a little water and add to the shanks, stir through and serve with mashed potato, warm bread, and a garden salad if you like.

How We Are Different
> How We Are Different
If you have ever received harassing phone calls from an ex-boyfriend or girlfriend or been prank called by a stranger, you know how these things can steal your peace and interfere with your life. There are a number of different things you can do to help get rid of this problem. Your best solution is to do a reverse phone lookup search to try and find out the identity of the person who the phone number belongs to. The information you get from this service can help you end the harassment and get your peace back.
Quick Results
One of the main benefits of using reverse phone number lookup is that you get your results quickly. When you use a service like Find Cell Phone Numbers, you will get results for your search within seconds or at the most minutes. All you will need to do for this type of search is to have the phone number that keeps calling you. For access to certain types of information, you might need to buy a report or sign up to become a member of the website so that you can get what you need.
The Information
There are specific pieces of information you will get when you do this type of search. All the information you will have access to will revolve around the identity of the person who owns the phone number. You will not have any access to information that involves finding the actual geographic location of the cellular device or information pertaining to who the individual has been in contact with recently. You will have access to the name and to their address. You can use this information to get in contact with the individuals who are harassing you to get them to stop or to turn in the information to local law enforcement.
Finding Old Friends
Another benefit of using this service is that you can find friends that you have lost contact with over the years. If you have the person's name, you can use this to try and find phone number information or their current address or place of business. This is a great way to reconnect and rebuild friendships that have drifted apart. If an old friend tries to contact you from a number that you do not recognize, you can use this service to help find their information so that you do not miss out on this opportunity to reconnect.
How we are different
There are plenty of other companies and competitors out there claiming to offer these services, but none of them can do so at the type of competitive prices that Find Cell Phone Numbers offers to customers. The reason prices are so low is that we specialize and focus on reverse cell phone lookups. Find Cell Phone Numbers also allows users to do a search on claimed numbers for free to see if any results come up. This is a service you will not find with many other companies that are out there.
