Iconic blend by the historical Japanese producer, “The” Nikka 12 years is a worthy showcase of the Nikka blenders’ know-how and skill. With a majority of malt whisky from Nikka’s two distilleries in northern Japan – Yoichi and Miyagikyo – and a grain whisky distilled in a Coffey still, all the elements at the heart of Nikka are brought together in one exceptional whisky.
The asymmetric design of the bottle was inspired by the overlapping layers of “Kimono”, representing the many layers of Nikka’s tradition inherited by its founder Masataka Taketsuru.
burnished gold with orange hue.
both lively and serene. Dark chocolate provides the backbone of mouth-watering bitterness. On one end, the malted barley extends to earthier notes, while on the other, fresh fruits (apple, prunes, mirabelle and greengage plums, pear) are reminiscent of a plentiful harvest. With air, honeyed and floral notes (lilac, lilly of the valley) make their appearance.

Real-time body augmentation on HoloLens using Kinect.
to build the App Skullfit and actually won the 1. place in the Hackathon.
Our goal was to combine Kinect world space coordinates with HoloLens world space coordinates in an automatic approach without using any markers.
On top of this framework, we build the HoloLens App Skullfit, which pins the bones of a holographic skeleton to the body of a real person.
All the bones can then be dropped to the floor and need to be reassembled to the body using HoloLens.

It was lovely to see so many familiar faces at the Malvern Show - because its quite local there are many customers who we see at the shop and at the NEC Festival of Quilts. The visitors also included Lynne who I did Tai Chi classes with 10 or more years ago (time just flies where you're doing Crouching Tiger impressions). She began quilting and with her sister, launched an information website for quilters called Quilters Domain - a great resource for people looking for Events listings - well worth checking out to see if there are any local shows either where you live, where you're visiting or where you might want to make a detour to!
We had a great show and the star of the show for us was our new Longarm Quilting Machine - the HandiQuilter Avante 18". Some customers became quite emotional when they realised that this fully EU compliant longarm machine could be theirs! All those quilts that need quilting (and all that basting that won't need to be done!) with all that creativity that could be....created!
So many quilters have been asking for a long arm quilting machine over the years. We visit Houston and see these wonderful machines but unfortunately in order for us to sell a sewing machine there are a lot of EU regulations that had to be fulfilled before that could happen. Now it is available exclusively from The Cotton Patch!
Not only does it have 15" of open quilting space allowing you to quilt from crib to king with ease but it also has stitch regulation ensuring that you get a consistent stitch from 4 stitches-per-inch up to 18 stitches-per-inch. It features colour touch-screens at front and back, laser lights and comes with full warranty and customer service in the UK.
Its so new we haven't got it on our website yet but here are a few photos of the HQ Avante 18" Quilting Machine on the stand at Malvern. You can also read about the features and benefits of the HQ18 Avante (TM) on the HandiQuilter website.
If you would like more information and pricing please just give us a call on 0121 702 2840.
Thanks for the links to YouTube! I'll do another post and add that so people can see it in action.

Transfer google+ circles between google accounts?
Since the launch of Google+ pages we were asked from a large number of our readers about How would i transfer my google+ account and circles from one account to another?
The reason was most of the users who created google+ pages for their businesses / sites created a new google account or profile (due to the fact that it was not possible to have multiple admin’s for a page).
Later when the G+ team released the multiple admin and ownership feature in pages, page owners asked the reverse; How would i take the relationship (i.e circles, followers) that i built in a page to another google+ profile?
Fortunately G+ team took note of this pressing requirement and was working on it. That tool now called as Google+ circles transfer tool is ready and immediately available as part of Google+ takeout.
Detailed explanation can be found on the help page. We are convinced that this Google+ circles transfer tool would help a lot of folks to eliminate some duplicate accounts and just focus on building and promoting a single profile or page.

Over the past few months a great deal of work has been going on to catalogue all the artefacts in the Hubert Johnson room. Some of the items have been temporarily packed away and put into safe storage whilst other items have been rearranged into the current display. Choosing a favourite from the items we have is difficult, but I think of all the items of Memorabilia from Cardiff and the international Rugby world that one of my favourite items is actually sited in the members' bar. Many of you may not even have noticed it, or barely given it a second glance whilst others may have seen it but not realised it’s significance.
In 2011 Cardiff Rugby Club was inducted into the World Rugby Hall of Fame - the first Club side to receive the honour (the Scottish side Melrose have subsequently followed) Most inductees into the hall of fame are players - some of whom played for the Blue and Blacks during their career. For a club side to be inducted is highly unusual and a great honour.
The name of Cardiff RFC is renowned throughout the rugby world but how many people realise that the game as played today owes a great debt to Cardiff Rugby Club. In the early years, rugby teams often contained more than 15 players per side but as the game developed then 15 players a side became the accepted figure. Unlike today, the sides contained 9 or even 10 forwards and only five or six backs. So why did it change? The answer to this is to be found in the early history of Cardiff rugby and like many of history’s greatest events owed more to a chance event rather than meticulous planning.
Francis Escott Hancock, born in Somerset in 1859, was an outstanding rugby player. At the age of just 17 he was already captain of local team (leading them through two seasons when they were unbeaten at home) and also captained Somerset.
In 1884 he moved to Cardiff to help his brother in the family brewing business (oh, that Hancock) and was invited to turn out for Cardiff, as the regular centre (Tom Williams) was unavailable. Playing away at Cheltenham College (a leading side of the time) Hancock played brilliantly, scoring the two tries in Cardiff’s 8-0 victory. Having played so well he had to play in the next game at home against Gloucester. The only slight problem was that Williams was now available and was also difficult to leave out of side. A solution was to play both and take to the field with 8 forwards and 7 backs. The game ended in a 0-0 draw but the Cardiff selectors had seen enough to convince them to continue with the system for the remainder of the season.
For the 1885-6 season Hancock was appointed captain of Cardiff and using this formation they were unbeaten until the last game of the season when they lost away to Moseley. Cardiff only conceded four tries all season (three by Moseley and one by Gloucester) whilst scoring 131 themselves. Hancock was keen on open rugby and under his captaincy during the season no penalty goals were attempted. Only one player attempted a drop goal and Hancock very quickly told him that it was unacceptable and warned the team that anybody attempting such a thing in future would be sent off for disobeying his instructions.
Frank Hancock won four Welsh caps. In the only one which he was captain (against Scotland in the 1886) Hancock tried out his four three-quarter system. This was the first time this had been done in an international and Hancock was paired up with Welsh rugby superstar Arthur Gould. It was the poor selection of the team that resulted in Hancock scrapping the system during the game and switching Gould to full-back. Unfortunately, the damage was already done and Wales lost the match.
Gradually other sides saw the benefits of the formation and over the ensuing years other teams gradually adopted the four three-quarter system that we all know today.

Visit Komodo Island, Singapore, Colombo, Sri Lanka, Mina Qabos, UAE, Dubai, Aqaba, Malta (La Valletta), Barcelona, Cadiz, Amsterdam, Warnemunde, Riga, Tallinn, Estonia, Helsinki, Finland, St Petersburg, Russia, Stockholm, Sweden, Copenhagen, Denmark and Dover.
Komodo lizards quietly thrived in the harsh climate of Indonesia's Lesser Sunda Islands for millions of years until their existence was discovered about 100 years ago?when Dutch sailors encountered the creatures for the first time, they returned with reports of fire-breathing dragons. Reaching 10 feet in length and weighing over 300 pounds, Komodo dragons are the world's largest and heaviest lizards. The best place to view these magnificent and endangered creatures is on Komodo Island, the largest island in Komodo National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Man and Biosphere Reserve. Although Komodo National Park is famous for its most recognized inhabitant it's also noted for its diverse marine habitat. 1,000 species of fish, 260 species of reef-building coral, manta rays, sharks, dolphins, whales and sea turtles live in the park's coral reefs, mangroves, sea grass beds and semi-enclosed bays.
Singapore - the very name summons visions of the mysterious East. The commercial center of Southeast Asia, this island city-state of four million people is a metropolis of modern high-rise buildings, Chinese shop-houses with red-tiled roofs, sturdy Victorian buildings, Buddhist temples and Arab bazaars. Founded in 1819 by Sir Stamford Raffles of the fabled East India Company, the city is a melting pot of people and cultures. Malay, Chinese, English and Tamil are official languages. Buddhism, Taoism, Islam, Hinduism and Christianity are the major faiths. Singapore is an ever-fascinating island boasting colorful traditions, luxurious hotels and some of the finest duty-free shopping in the world. Lying just 85 miles north of the Equator at the tip of the Malay Peninsula, the island was a haven for Malay pirates and Chinese and Arab traders.
Sri Lanka conjures up the exotic and the mysterious. Once known as Ceylon, the island boasts a fantastic landscape that ranges from primeval rain forest to the bustling modern streets of Colombo, the capital. A visitor to Sri Lanka has a wealth of options. Relax on some of the world's finest beaches. Explore the temples, halls and palaces of the last Sinhalese kingdom at Kandy. Or take a guided tour of an elephant orphanage. Colombo also offers an array of charms, from the Royal Botanic Gardens, once a royal pleasure garden, to the Pettah Bazaar, where vendors hawk everything under the sun. Colombo and Sri Lanka were shaped by Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim and European influences. Colombo also serves as a gateway for Overland Adventures to India.
Oman's capital was once a major trading centre controlled and influenced by the Portuguese. Those intrepid explores and traders are long gone. Today, visitors flock to Oman thanks to its azure air, towering desert mountains, and crystalline waters. Muscat itself is an Arabian fable sprung to life. Old 16th century forts guard the bay and the palace, while the vibrant souqs offer daggers, superb silver jewellery, and traditional crafts and costumes.
Dubai has always served as a bridge between East and West. In the past, Dubai's trade links stretched from Western Europe to Southeast Asia and China. The result was the creation of one of the most protean societies in the world. Nestled in the very heart of Islam, Dubai remains unique in its embrace of the West. Bedouin may still roam the desert, but Dubai also plays hosts to international tennis and golf tournaments. Tourists flock to its shores while the pace of development continues at a frenetic pace, from massive artificial islands to the astounding Burj Al Arab Hotel. Dubai is actually two cities in one: the Khor Dubai, an inlet of the Persian Gulf, separates Deira, the old city, from Bur Dubai.
The port of Aqaba has been an important strategic and commercial center for over three millennia. Originally called Elath, the home of the Edomites became in Roman times a trading center where goods from as far away as China found entry to Africa, Europe, and the Middle East. Today Aqaba is Jordan's only seaport, and the city serves as an intriguing gateway for travelers. In the surrounding desert lies the lost city of Petra - a city that may date to 6,000 B.C. - and Wadi Rum, where an English soldier mystic named T.E. Lawrence found his destiny as "Lawrence of Arabia." Perched at the apex of the Gulf of Aqaba, Aqaba offers internationally renowned diving opportunities and the richest marine life in the entire Red Sea. The old fortress on the waterfront dates to the 14th-century. Passengers should drink only bottled water while ashore. Please respect local customs and dress accordingly, avoiding exposed shoulders and knees.
Transiting through the Suez Canal is sure to be one of the lifelong memories of your cruise. The thought of a canal linking the Mediterranean and Red Sea extends back in history as far as 2100 B.C. Napoleon Bonaparte, pursuing his dreams of conquest, entertained the notion in 1798. But it was French engineer Ferdinand de Lesseps who finally proved that a canal across the Suez was practicable. Work on the canal began in 1858. Eleven years later the opening of the Suez Canal was an international event. The world had acquired a quicker route to Asia-as well as a Verdi opera called Aida. Of course the Suez Canal was a source of immediate controversy. The British wrested control of the canal from Egypt in 1882. Egypt regained control during its revolution of 1952. In 1956, the British, allied with the French and Israelis, nearly took the canal back. The Arab-Israeli Six Day War of 1967 closed the canal until 1973, when another war and intense international negotiations led to its return to Egyptian control.
Malta is the largest in a group of seven islands that occupy a strategic position between Europe and Africa. The island's history is long and turbulent. Everyone from the Normans to the Nazis have vied for control of this small, honey-colored rock. For centuries the island was the possession of the knightly Order of St. John - the Knights Hospitaller. Valletta, Malta's current capital, was planned by the Order's Grandmaster Jean de la Valette to secure the island's eastern coast from Turk incursions. Founded in 1566, Valletta's bustling streets are lined with superb Baroque buildings and churches. Malta has a long history: the megalithic stone temples at Gozo may be the oldest freestanding structures on Earth. Malta has two official languages, Maltese (constitutionally the national language) and English. Malta was admitted to the European Union in 2004 and in 2008 became part of the eurozone.
Berlin is a worthy rival to London or Paris in terms of history, art and culture. The city's highlights include the restored Reichstag Building with its magnificent glass dome and the stunning Pergamon Museum. Warnemünde is a seaside resort near the harbor entrance to Rostock, one of the city-states that formed the medieval Hanseatic League. Originally a fishing village turned spa and resort. Explore the old Cold War hot spots and view the Brandenburg Gate, restored to its original magnificence. Or, stroll along the Kurfurstendamm and take coffee in a local cafe. Warnemünde is also your gateway to Mecklenburg and the German countryside.
Capital of Latvia and the largest city of the Baltic Republics, Riga has long been a center of commerce and culture. Founded in the 13th century, the city rose to prominence as a member of the Hanseatic League, the great German-Baltic trading consortium that dominated Northern Europe during the Middle Ages. In the long struggle for Latvian independence, Riga has been ruled by Germans, Swedes and Russians. Today this "Little Paris of the Baltic" is a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its architecture including one of the finest collections of Art Nouveau buildings in Northern Europe. The city's German heritage contributed to the city's rich architecture. Riga's Art Nouveau buildings are outstanding examples of the German style known as Jugendstil.
Perhaps their country's harsh climate encouraged the Finns' love and respect for design and the arts. Whatever the cause, there's no denying that Helsinki is one of the most vibrant and beautiful cities in Scandinavia. Hailed as the "Daughter of the Baltic," Finland's capital is a city of graceful neoclassical buildings, striking modern architecture and spacious boulevards dotted with squares and parks. In the past century, Finland has nurtured some of the major creative talents of Western culture, from the composer Sibelius to architects Eliel & Eero Saarinen and Alvar Aalto. The center of Finnish commerce and culture, Helsinki is home to some 616.000 people. Much of the city's neoclassical architecture dates from the period of Tsarist rule, which began in 1809 after political control of Finland passed from Sweden to Russia, Finland gained its independence in 1917.
St. Petersburg has provided a historic stage since the day Peter the Great ordained its construction on the banks of the Neva. In its relatively short history - the city is younger than New York - St. Petersburg has witnessed the rise and fall of Imperial Russia, three shattering revolutions, and civil war. The city survived a long and tragic siege during World War II - indeed St. Petersburg became a symbol of Russian resistance to Nazi invasion. Russia's "Window on the West," St. Petersburg remains one of the world's most beautiful metropolises. Perched on the banks of the Neva, the city is crisscrossed by canals. Two great architects helped bring Peter the Great's vision of St. Petersburg to life: Rastrelli and Carlo Rossi. The rich architecture that resulted features a mixture of styles from ornate Russian Baroque churches to neo-classical palaces. St. Petersburg has also been the cultural soul of Russia, a repository of priceless art and a home to poets, musicians and composers ranging from Pushkin to Shostakovich. Peter the Great instilled his near-mania for architecture and building in his successors, making the then capital of Imperial Russia one of the architectural treasures of the world.
Often described as the "Capital of Scandinavia," Stockholm traces its origins back seven centuries, when it was founded on the island of Gamla Stan and became the capital of Sweden. Today, the city covers 14 separate islands connected by bays, channels and inlets. The skyline is a sea of copper roofs grown green with patina, towers, spires and graceful cupolas stand sentinel over the historic Old Town (Gamla Stan). With its population of nearly a million people, Stockholm is one of the world's most beautiful, clean and orderly cities. With a history stretching over seven centuries, Stockholm is not just a beautiful city but also Sweden's center of art and culture.
Copenhagen was founded during the 12th century. The city owes much of its charm to the buildings erected by Denmark's monarchs, and boasts a treasure trove of late-Renaissance and Rococo architecture. Copenhagen deserves its accolade as the Venice of the North. Founded on a series of islands and islets, the city today is laced with graceful canals and boasts some of the most delightful architecture in Northern Europe. See the fabled statue of Hans Christian Andersen's Little Mermaid, a symbol of the city. Stroll along the old harbor of Nyhavn, lined with cafés, restaurants and 500-year-old gabled houses. Browse the superb shops on the world-famous Stroget or view the Rococo palaces lining Amalienborg Square. Best of all, savor the taste of local delicacies while wandering the paths of Tivoli Gardens, one of Europe's most celebrated pleasure gardens.

oman's capital was once a major trading centre controlled and influenced by the portuguese. those intrepid explores and traders are long gone. today, visitors flock to oman thanks to its azure air, towering desert mountains, and crystalline waters. muscat itself is an arabian fable sprung to life. old 16th century forts guard the bay and the palace, while the vibrant souqs offer daggers, superb silver jewellery, and traditional crafts and costumes.
dubai has always served as a bridge between east and west. in the past, dubai's trade links stretched from western europe to southeast asia and china. the result was the creation of one of the most protean societies in the world. nestled in the very heart of islam, dubai remains unique in its embrace of the west. bedouin may still roam the desert, but dubai also plays hosts to international tennis and golf tournaments. tourists flock to its shores while the pace of development continues at a frenetic pace, from massive artificial islands to the astounding burj al arab hotel. dubai is actually two cities in one: the khor dubai, an inlet of the persian gulf, separates deira, the old city, from bur dubai.
the port of aqaba has been an important strategic and commercial center for over three millennia. originally called elath, the home of the edomites became in roman times a trading center where goods from as far away as china found entry to africa, europe, and the middle east. today aqaba is jordan's only seaport, and the city serves as an intriguing gateway for travelers. in the surrounding desert lies the lost city of petra - a city that may date to 6,000 b.c. - and wadi rum, where an english soldier mystic named t.e. lawrence found his destiny as "lawrence of arabia." perched at the apex of the gulf of aqaba, aqaba offers internationally renowned diving opportunities and the richest marine life in the entire red sea. the old fortress on the waterfront dates to the 14th-century. passengers should drink only bottled water while ashore. please respect local customs and dress accordingly, avoiding exposed shoulders and knees.
transiting through the suez canal is sure to be one of the lifelong memories of your cruise. the thought of a canal linking the mediterranean and red sea extends back in history as far as 2100 b.c. napoleon bonaparte, pursuing his dreams of conquest, entertained the notion in 1798. but it was french engineer ferdinand de lesseps who finally proved that a canal across the suez was practicable. work on the canal began in 1858. eleven years later the opening of the suez canal was an international event. the world had acquired a quicker route to asia-as well as a verdi opera called aida. of course the suez canal was a source of immediate controversy. the british wrested control of the canal from egypt in 1882. egypt regained control during its revolution of 1952. in 1956, the british, allied with the french and israelis, nearly took the canal back. the arab-israeli six day war of 1967 closed the canal until 1973, when another war and intense international negotiations led to its return to egyptian control.
malta is the largest in a group of seven islands that occupy a strategic position between europe and africa. the island's history is long and turbulent. everyone from the normans to the nazis have vied for control of this small, honey-colored rock. for centuries the island was the possession of the knightly order of st. john - the knights hospitaller. valletta, malta's current capital, was planned by the order's grandmaster jean de la valette to secure the island's eastern coast from turk incursions. founded in 1566, valletta's bustling streets are lined with superb baroque buildings and churches. malta has a long history: the megalithic stone temples at gozo may be the oldest freestanding structures on earth. malta has two official languages, maltese (constitutionally the national language) and english. malta was admitted to the european union in 2004 and in 2008 became part of the eurozone.
berlin is a worthy rival to london or paris in terms of history, art and culture. the city's highlights include the restored reichstag building with its magnificent glass dome and the stunning pergamon museum. warnemünde is a seaside resort near the harbor entrance to rostock, one of the city-states that formed the medieval hanseatic league. originally a fishing village turned spa and resort. explore the old cold war hot spots and view the brandenburg gate, restored to its original magnificence. or, stroll along the kurfurstendamm and take coffee in a local cafe. warnemünde is also your gateway to mecklenburg and the german countryside.
capital of latvia and the largest city of the baltic republics, riga has long been a center of commerce and culture. founded in the 13th century, the city rose to prominence as a member of the hanseatic league, the great german-baltic trading consortium that dominated northern europe during the middle ages. in the long struggle for latvian independence, riga has been ruled by germans, swedes and russians. today this "little paris of the baltic" is a unesco world heritage site renowned for its architecture including one of the finest collections of art nouveau buildings in northern europe. the city's german heritage contributed to the city's rich architecture. riga's art nouveau buildings are outstanding examples of the german style known as jugendstil.
perhaps their country's harsh climate encouraged the finns' love and respect for design and the arts. whatever the cause, there's no denying that helsinki is one of the most vibrant and beautiful cities in scandinavia. hailed as the "daughter of the baltic," finland's capital is a city of graceful neoclassical buildings, striking modern architecture and spacious boulevards dotted with squares and parks. in the past century, finland has nurtured some of the major creative talents of western culture, from the composer sibelius to architects eliel & eero saarinen and alvar aalto. the center of finnish commerce and culture, helsinki is home to some 616.000 people. much of the city's neoclassical architecture dates from the period of tsarist rule, which began in 1809 after political control of finland passed from sweden to russia, finland gained its independence in 1917.
st. petersburg has provided a historic stage since the day peter the great ordained its construction on the banks of the neva. in its relatively short history - the city is younger than new york - st. petersburg has witnessed the rise and fall of imperial russia, three shattering revolutions, and civil war. the city survived a long and tragic siege during world war ii - indeed st. petersburg became a symbol of russian resistance to nazi invasion. russia's "window on the west," st. petersburg remains one of the world's most beautiful metropolises. perched on the banks of the neva, the city is crisscrossed by canals. two great architects helped bring peter the great's vision of st. petersburg to life: rastrelli and carlo rossi. the rich architecture that resulted features a mixture of styles from ornate russian baroque churches to neo-classical palaces. st. petersburg has also been the cultural soul of russia, a repository of priceless art and a home to poets, musicians and composers ranging from pushkin to shostakovich. peter the great instilled his near-mania for architecture and building in his successors, making the then capital of imperial russia one of the architectural treasures of the world.
often described as the "capital of scandinavia," stockholm traces its origins back seven centuries, when it was founded on the island of gamla stan and became the capital of sweden. today, the city covers 14 separate islands connected by bays, channels and inlets. the skyline is a sea of copper roofs grown green with patina, towers, spires and graceful cupolas stand sentinel over the historic old town (gamla stan). with its population of nearly a million people, stockholm is one of the world's most beautiful, clean and orderly cities. with a history stretching over seven centuries, stockholm is not just a beautiful city but also sweden's center of art and culture.
copenhagen was founded during the 12th century. the city owes much of its charm to the buildings erected by denmark's monarchs, and boasts a treasure trove of late-renaissance and rococo architecture. copenhagen deserves its accolade as the venice of the north. founded on a series of islands and islets, the city today is laced with graceful canals and boasts some of the most delightful architecture in northern europe. see the fabled statue of hans christian andersen's little mermaid, a symbol of the city. stroll along the old harbor of nyhavn, lined with cafés, restaurants and 500-year-old gabled houses. browse the superb shops on the world-famous stroget or view the rococo palaces lining amalienborg square. best of all, savor the taste of local delicacies while wandering the paths of tivoli gardens, one of europe's most celebrated pleasure gardens.

After stumbling upon the Twitter account, YourAnonNews- associated with the recently acclaimed activist group Anonymous according to the bio-I had found an intriguing tweet on the account regarding a reporter who endured an intimidating confrontation with National Security Agency security after attempting to photograph a new NSA structure cleverly named Utah Data Center.
Its purpose: to intercept, decipher, analyze, and store vast swaths of the world’s communications as they zap down from satellites and zip through the underground and undersea cables of international, foreign, and domestic networks. The heavily fortified $2 billion center should be up and running in September 2013. Flowing through its servers and routers and stored in near-bottomless databases will be all forms of communication, including the complete contents of private emails, cell phone calls, and Google searches, as well as all sorts of personal data trails—parking receipts, travel itineraries, bookstore purchases, and other digital “pocket litter.” It is, in some measure, the realization of the “total information awareness” program created during the first term of the Bush administration—an effort that was killed by Congress in 2003 after it caused an outcry over its potential for invading Americans’ privacy.
Forbes (adorable, if I may say so) privacy beat reporter, Kashmir Hill, had a few hours to spare whilst on a trip in Utah and took a spontaneous visit to the NSA’s immense data center that is still under construction. She decided to travel to the site with professor Randy Dryer who happens to be a practicing and experienced media lawyer as well. Hill and Dryer’s time of leisure was met with unexpected trouble- they pissed off security. NSA security was unsettled with Hill’s presence because they were aware she was taking photographs of the scene. In a column she recently wrote for her Forbes “Not-So-Private Parts” regarding the incident, she illustrated an hour long interrogation and encounter with stern, mysterious officers . Hill noted in her editorial that one of the officers recorded their conversation in a notebook. She depicted a surreal environment entirely: a bizarre blinking sign, very small warning signs with trespassing rules, curious statements made by the officers regarding the building and NSA policy and a questionable structure resembling a gas station but with no pumps- all next a highway with a breath-taking mountain view.
The NSA officers commanded Hill to delete a few of her photographs and advised that doing so would ease the process in avoiding a trespassing charge. Hill was bullied in defense of privacy for the agency that is exactly why anyone should raise concern about this whole event. We, as citizens, do not hold the same opportunity and authority as the NSA officers to defend our own privacy that is being trespassed within the Utah NSA establishment. Although Hill was stripped of her photographic evidence, her journalism skills were not robbed as she used her voice to exercise the right to search for the truth in reflection upon a frightening thought in her column. Her words are wise, certainly surpassing the impact of what her photography would have served.
Honestly I was starting to feel pretty nervous at this point but also painfully aware of the irony of the situation. They didn’t want me to capture information about a facility that will soon be harvesting and storing massive amounts of information about American citizens, potentially including many photos that have been privately sent.
Kashmir Hill should be commended for serving her duty to journalism in such a profound way. She is a real dudette with whistle-blowing qualities. Even though it may not seem that she has accomplished much success on the matter, she verbally exposed an unusual occurrence that is important for everyone to be aware of. At what extent do we, as citizens, allow our privacy to be invaded? Why has this story and the facility itself received such minimum attention in comparison to our collective, personal data becoming the center of attention for the building’s existence? The Anonymous Twitter account, YourAnonNews, noted this paradoxical nature how we, as a whole, are not encouraged to learn about it, simultaneously illuminating their groups mission, “We like doing things we’re not encouraged to do.” Then, the account reminded followers of one important thing: this NSA creation was brought to life by American tax dollars.
If there is one thing I can urge you to do- it’s read both of these articles in the links below and open your eyes.

As Christmas approaches and you find yourself struggling to think of unique and impressive gifts to buy, it is important to remember there is nothing more valuable than the safety and security of your family and loved ones. We at Keytek have collated a list of gifts and stocking fillers that will help ensure the safety of those you love this Christmas.
People who frequently find themselves locked out the house because they’ve forgotten their keys often result in hiding a spare key around the front of their property. This can put their security at risk, as the easiest way a burglar can enter a house is by finding the spare key. An ideal gift for those who forget their house keys is a Key Safe. There is an assortment of Key Safe’s available in a variety of sizes, makes and models. Most Key Safe’s can only be accessed by a code which only the owner and their loved ones know. They are extremely durable and weather resistant, and can be found on the Keytek shop!
Motorcycle and bicycle theft remains a growing problem and can be easily avoided by the use of a bike and motorbike lock. If a loved one has a passion for biking, a gift that secures their most prized possession is ideal for Christmas, as motorcycles and cycles can be very expensive, therefore targeted by thieves. Keytek Shop stocks various locks, from chain locks to loop locks, which all offer high levels of security for bikes and motorcycles.
Why not consider a humorous yet practical gift this Christmas. The range of Decoy Safe’s on the Keytek Shop can be used to hide money, jewellery and valuables in plain sight. The Keytek Shop offers 3 models of Decoy Safe’s; The Heinz Baked Beanz, Heinz Spaghetti and Heinz Tomato Soup cans, all recognised by the police, neighbourhood watch groups and insurance companies as effective theft deterrents.
This year don’t just resort to your usual go to gifts for Christmas; why not throw in a practical gift as well! Gifts which protect the security of a person and their prized possessions are enormously valuable, and the recipient will be extremely grateful in the long run.

Does Donald Trump take Justin Trudeau seriously?
Embarrassing Donald Trump, who takes everything personally and angers easily is not wise. Justin Trudeau’s announcement after Trump left the recent G7 meeting that Canada won’t be pushed around created unintended consequences for himself and our country.
Trump tweeted to the world that Justin Trudeau is “dishonest” and “weak”. Ouch.
Although the PM’s approval rating did go up at home, he inadvertently raised the stakes in negotiations that are critical to our economy and tens of thousand of jobs, and triggered a renewed threat from the mercurial Trump to put a 25% tariffs on cars made in Canada.
Apparently no one ever told the PM that if you are in high-stakes poker game and you don’t know who the mark at the table is, it’s you. A read of the 1987 bestseller attributed to Trump “The Art of the Deal” would help, particularly #2 of Trump’s 11 steps to a winning deal — Protect the downside and the upside will take care of itself.
The downside in this case is the demise of Canada’s auto industry, which supports half a million jobs across Canada, 5000 thousand of which are well paid jobs at Ford’s Oakville Assembly Plant.
Ninety percent of the Ford autos made there are sold in the U.S. If 25% tariffs are introduced Ford workers would face immediate cutbacks.
But let’s be candid. The issue is not only the message.
Trump cabinet members could not have missed the photos of Canada’s Prime Minister boxing at Bronx gym in the middle of a work day, or posing at an international conference in New York in his Wookie socks the same day half million Rohingya Muslim refugees were fleeing violence, or his six-day family costume vacation in India, where a convicted terrorist was invited to an official Canadian reception.
Selfies, silly socks and photo-bombing are supposed to impress? These are dangerous economic times.
Tens of thousand of jobs in Canada are on the line, and we face a recession if auto tariffs are introduced. Yet Justin Trudeau has taken 16 personal days off work since January.
If our Prime Minister doesn’t take his job seriously, why would the U.S President and his cabinet?
You never get a second chance to make a first impression. With Trudeau and trade deals it’s not just the message. It’s the messenger.

Emmanuelle here today for some insipiration.
Here is a layout I made with some pictures taken one and a half year ago. We are still waiting for a proper spring here in Belgium (that is why my pics are a little bit dark...it's been raining the whole week... sorry about that), and I just need some sun.
That's why I decided to use pictures from a sunny day in Malta. And those pics from holidays spent abroad where perfect to start using the enw Escape colletion. I love the colors of this collection. And once again it's so versatile that you can use it for any theme.
I am just in love with this light blue and grey association, with a touch of orange, aren't you?
Have a lovely week-end and be scrappy ;) (and if you are, don't forget to post your projects using Evalicious supplies into our Flickr pool.
