2. I took it off and laid it as flat as I could on the ground then pinned all the way up the sides up to the point where I wanted the armpit to be.
3. Using my machine, I sewed up the sides at the mental mark I made (about two inches for me) until I reached the armpit. Left my needle in the shirt, lifted my presser foot, and turned the shirt, dropped my presser foot, and sewed the sleeve.
4. Finally, I cut the excess material.
Done! It really is that simple, and now it fits! Try it on some of yours and let me know if it turned out!
So... after reading your blog I have come to a conclusion. I need you to teach me how to sew. I am not that good! Ha! I nominated you for an award! Head over to my blog to check it out!
Need to do this on a couple of mine! Great idea Susan!
Deidre: Done and done. Next time I make a tutorial for one of my sewing projects, I will include explicit sewing directions as well! Sound good? Happy sewing!


Fortinet® (NASDAQ: FTNT), the global leader in high-performance cybersecurity solutions, today announced the expansion of its Security Fabric with introduction of the FortiGate 6040E enterprise firewall. First in Fortinet's new 6000 series of ultra-high throughput enterprise firewalls, the FortiGate 6040E delivers the unprecedented next-generation firewall performance, effortless scale, and superior security so large enterprises don't have to compromise between security features or network speed disruption.
Fortinet's new FortiGate 6040E enterprise next-generation firewall is designed to secure the vast amounts of mobile and cloud traffic for the largest of enterprises.
Fortinet bolsters its Security Fabric with its new FortiASIC CP9 next-generation Content Processors. CP9 accelerates the inspection of computationally intensive intrusion prevention (IPS) and secure socket layer (SSL) VPN traffic to deliver the level of performance required to deploy security wherever it is needed within the infrastructure.
New FortiGate 2000E and 2500E enterprise firewalls deliver CP9 ASIC advantages to enterprise edge and internal segments.
Adoption of cloud services and the ease of remote access to network assets have created a perfect storm for large enterprises, drastically increasing external demands on IT networks and exponentially expanding the attack surface. As a result, the enterprise next-generation firewall has become the de facto gateway to the cloud.
Compounding on these challenges, security leaders must overcome the limitations of the technologies used in most next-generation firewall solutions available today – forcing them to choose between enabling security features or preserving the performance of their networks.
Overcoming the limitations of traditional next-generation firewall solutions, the FortiGate 6040E is built on an innovative new processing architecture, utilizing FortiASIC content and network processors to offload and accelerate the security performance of its dual CPUs. Integrating advanced security processing, intelligent controls, and high speed networking enable the FortiGate 6040E to deliver unprecedented security and network performance in a deceptively compact form-factor.
80Gbps throughput with all next-generation firewall features enabled.
FortiASIC CP9 brings enhanced SSL decryption performance to close gaps in the attack surface.
Intelligent networking, security, processing, and management capabilities are all efficiently integrated within a small form-factor chassis.
Fortinet's new FortiASIC CP9 content processor deliver the performance needed to secure the massive traffic demands of the largest enterprises and enables support for various firewall deployment modes including next-generation and advanced internal segmentation. This frees businesses to deploy security wherever it is needed without impacting network functionality. This enables the superior defenses of Fortinet's innovative Security Fabric.
Fortinet also announced the launch of two new FortiGate 2000E series enterprise firewalls, bringing the enhanced capabilities of FortiASIC CP9 to enterprises requiring higher next-generation firewalling and increased SSL inspection capabilities. The new FortiGate 2000E and 2500E also leverage CP9 deliver increased VPN capabilities, deep content inspection and advanced application controls.
Mobility, the cloud and IoT has raised the complexity of security to new heights. The number of advanced and targeted threats has rendered traditional approaches to security ineffective as most point products can no longer keep up. The 2015 ZK Research Security Survey revealed that 43% of respondents admit to turning features off in security appliances to improve performance. A unified security fabric that can provide the necessary layers of security without additional complexity or slowing down the network has become vital. It's critical that security professionals look at how security appliances are being built. A study by ZK Research conducted earlier this year found that ASIC based products consistently have an 18 to 24 month lead on price/performance over ones built on off the shelf silicon.
The FortiGate 6040E, 2000E, and 2500E will all be available in Q2 2016. Please contact your authorized Fortinet channel partner for pricing and details.

Does removing ALL the silences in the GT Turbo make any real difference in horspower [:I] Other than people saying "my seat of the pants impression is that my car goes faster" I have not read of seen any facts to support the claims by some of gaining "MORE POWER" with the silencers removed. It seems a though nobody has yet to "dyno" the car to see if it makes much difference other than noise. Am I correct [:I] Thanks.
so to answer your question, yes it helps to remove what ever you can.
I read quite some posts in regards of removing silencers. It seems to me that if you remove the silencers w/o disconnecting the battery, you should get a slight increase in times. If you remove the silencers and disconnet the battery, you won't get an increase in times as the PCM will adjust to modification. 3BarBoost has stated quite a few times that the PCM will adjust to the silencers being removed.
To really get the benefits of removing the silencers or new intake, you will need a manual boost controller.
Disclaimer: This is just my opinion on the info flowing through this site. I have not modified my intake or removed the silencers nor have a manual boost controller.

San Sebastián era un cuadro del pintor español José de Ribera, firmado y fechado en 1636 y pintado al óleo sobre lienzo. Era parte de las colecciones del Museo Kaiser Friedrich de Berlín. En mayo de 1945 quedó destruido, junto a cientos de otras obras de arte, durante el incendio de la torre de defensa antiaérea Flakturm Friedrichshain de Berlín, lugar al que se había trasladado el cuadro para su protección durante los meses finales de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. No se tiene la absoluta certeza de su destrucción a causa de los saqueos que acompañaron el incendio y de la actitud del ejército soviético durante aquellos días, si bien se considera prácticamente seguro.

Historia
Se cree que el cuadro pertenecía originariamente a la iglesia de San Pascual Bailón de Madrid. Hasta 1821 estuvo en la colección del empresario británico afincado en Berlín Edward Solly. Posteriormente fue parte de la colección del empresario alemán Barthold Suermondt, en Aquisgrán, hasta 1874, momento en el que la obra pasó por compra, junto a una gran parte de la colección Suermondt, a la Gemäldegalerie de Berlín. Tras la inauguración en 1904 del Museo Kaiser Friedrich, en el cual se integró la Gemäldegalerie, el cuadro pasó a ser parte de sus colecciones. Como ya se ha mencionado, el cuadro se perdió en mayo de 1945, en el incendio de la torre de defensa antiaérea Flakturm Friedrichshain de Berlín, lugar al que habían sido trasladadas para su protección cientos de obras de arte del Museo Kaiser Friedrich, incluido el San Sebastián de Ribera. No obstante, unas pocas de las obras que se creyeron destruidas en ese incendio han ido reapareciendo posteriormente, casi todas en Rusia, y por este motivo no puede afirmarse con total seguridad que el cuadro quedara destruido en esa ocasión, aunque se considera prácticamente seguro.

Análisis de la obra
La pérdida de la obra original obliga a juzgarla a través de las fotografías en blanco y negro que han llegado hasta la actualidad. Este hecho dificulta la apreciación de dos importantes aspectos del cuadro: el modelado de la elegante figura de san Sebastián y el entorno de la figura, iluminado a la luz de la luna. Ambos aspectos aparecen ya mencionados en una guía alemana del Museo Kaiser Friedrich de 1911 que comentaba el San Sebastián de Ribera con las siguientes palabras: la esbelta figura del santo «es refinada en la disposición y al mismo tiempo excelente en dibujo y modelado; ningún contemporáneo en Italia se acerca siquiera. Además, la iluminación aquí es de un efecto casi mágico y la expresión es tan delicada e íntima que recuerda a las obras tardías de Rembrandt.»

Esta mágica iluminación apenas puede apreciarse en las fotografías, en las que cuesta percibir el paisaje iluminado bajo el claro de luna en el lado derecho del cuadro, que debió ser notabilísimo. La figura del santo, examinada con atención, muestra un modelado obtenido a través de sutiles gradaciones de luz y sombra, que el artista parece haber obtenido «gracias a un refinado juego de variaciones tonales que pone de relieve el preciosismo extremo de los materiales cromáticos, exactamente como en otros ejemplos de la apertura de Ribera a la manera de Van Dyck y su escuela", lo cual resulta característico de la evolución del artista en el momento en el que el cuadro fue pintado: 1636.

Posible dibujo preparatorio en la Universidad de Indiana

El Museo de Arte Eskenazi de la Universidad de Indiana conserva un dibujo original de Ribera con una composición muy similar a la del cuadro desaparecido. Es tal vez el más bello de la aproximadamente una decena de dibujos de Ribera de hombres atados que habitualmente se identifican como san Sebastián, a pesar de que la mayoría de ellos no van acompañados de los elementos iconográficos propios del santo. El artista repite algunas fórmulas comunes a otros dibujos de esta tipología, como los brazos extendidos o la inclinación de la cabeza, o detalles tales como la representación de una mano abierta y otra cerrada. El dibujo muestra el talento de Ribera para el dibujo anatómico, mostrando un cuerpo de una gran belleza potenciada por la delicadeza del modelado y por la iluminación, ejecutada con maestría.

La crítica especializada se divide entre relacionar temporalmente el dibujo con otros fechados hacia 1626 (e incluso de hacia 1619-1621), o bien, por la mayor soltura y menor nivel de detallismo, con algunos otros de finales de esa misma década (1629-1630). Tampoco existe consenso entre los especialistas en la obra de Ribera acerca de si se trata principalmente de un simple ejercicio de dibujo anatómico o bien de un dibujo preparatorio para alguna obra, aunque siempre se ha señalado la similitud del esquema compositivo con la del San Sebastián destruido en Berlín en 1945.

5 Facts on Hong Kong Protests and their Impact on its Education System
Photo credit: Nora Tam
The anti-government protests continue for the 24th week in Hong Kong. The protesters–many young high school and university students–have dug in at several university campuses across Hong Kong. The latest epicenter of the protests was the Chinese University of Hong Kong which this past Tuesday evening became the site of violent clashes between police and the protesters. Tensions continue to run high and the confrontations between protesters and police have turned violent.
The unrest in Hong Kong was triggered by a now-withdrawn extradition bill which would have enabled the transfer of fugitives to mainland China. The movement, as reported by Hong Kong Free Press, "has evolved into wider calls for democratic reform and accountability for the police handling of the crisis."
Here are a few facts on the impact the protests are having on the schools and universities in Hong Kong:
Hong Kong's Education Bureau announced that all schools would shut on Thursday, November 14th. This means the suspension of kindergarten, primary and secondary school classes citing safety concerns arising from the city's three consecutive days of unrest. Source
Most of the city's universities and other higher educational institutions also announced there would be no classes on Thursday, November 14th. At least 10 have suspended classes the rest of the week. Source
The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) and Baptist University (BU) had cancelled all on-campus lessons. Several universities had announced they would be introducing online learning and other assessment methods for the remaining weeks of the term. Source
Some exchange students are being advised to leave Hong Kong as the protests continue. Norway and Denmark, for example, have advised their students to return home. Source
A group of students from Mainland China were helped by Hong Kong police to leave their campus after it was barricaded by demonstrators. Many are taking advantage of a program that offers them a week of free accommodation in hotels and hostels in the neighboring city of Shenzhen. Source
This is an on-going crisis in Hong Kong and ACEI-Global will include updates as they become available. Please follow us on Facebook for continued updates on Hong Kong and education news from around the world.

The new mobile game-based comedy/adventure series from Toonz and Herotainment will bow tomorrow on YouTube and the YouTube Kids app.
Toonz Media Group's new mobile game-derived animated series Smighties is set to make its digital debut tomorrow exclusively on YouTube and the YouTube Kids app.
Based on New York IP owner Herotainment's popular online and mobile game of the same name, the 39 x seven-minute comedy/adventure series follows six small but mighty superheroes—Zip, Zap, Nardy, Melody, Leila and Dude—who embrace teamwork, friendship and fun.
Targeting kids ages four to seven and their families, the series will also introduce more than 130 unique Smightie characters from five different regions.
The first three episodes of the series will be available from July 6 on the Smighties YouTube Channel and on YouTube Kids in English, French and Spanish, with more languages expected to follow.
Smighties is produced by Toonz Studios, the flagship division of India-based Toonz Media Group, in partnership with Herotainment. Credits of the show's multi-Emmy award-winning seven-member writing team include Duck Tales, Winnie the Pooh, Secret Millionaires Club, Clifford the Big Red Dog, Angry Birds Toons and Super Wings.
Toonz and Herotainment also share linear television and global L&M plans for the brand.


Step 1: Determine if you are experienced enough to take on a kayak trip independently into Gwaii Haanas.
Gwaii Haanas is definitely not a beginner kayaking destination, and your group must feel confident in being able to read marine charts and tide tables, listen to the VHF marine weather forecasts, and put all of those together (along with your own observations), to be able to choose appropriate paddling routes each day, and to help ensure a safe trip. If you don't feel that you are quite up to the challenge of paddling independently, we work closely with a number of excellent kayak tour operators offering expedition trips in Gwaii Haanas.
Step 2: Look at a map!
Determine a general route or area, keeping in mind your group's experience level.
You can find a place to purchase marine charts in your area via Canadian Hydrographic Service.
The Sandspit Visitor Center carries marine charts, however do not wait until you arrive. Call or email in advance to ensure they have your charts in stock - 1-250-637-5362 or visitsandspit@gmail.com.
Check out our Kayaker FAQs page for more information on charts and tide tables.
Consult our transport schedule to get an idea about our dates and availability, and then give our office a call or email to confirm dates and pickup/drop off locations, and to get "pencilled" in to our calendar. If you require kayak rentals you should also ask about availability. We will provide our Trip Planning Package, along with our Conditions of Transportation and/or Rental agreement, as well as our waiver. We'll have you sign the agreements and waiver upon your arrival here, but please have a read through both prior to arriving.
Step 4: Book your travel to the islands.
Ensure you arrive at LEAST one day prior to your drop off transport, and at LEAST one day after your pickup. You should plan to stay in Sandspit the day of your pickup, as we very rarely get back in time for the last ferry to Skidegate and pretty much never in time for the flight from Sandspit.
For more information on getting to and from Sandspit, consult our General FAQ page.
Step 5: Pay your deposit.
Contact us to pay your 25% deposit on your transportation and rentals to fully confirm the booking.
Step 6: Make your Parks reservation.
Call the Gwaii Haanas Parks Canada office in Skidegate to make your Parks Canada reservation and pay for your Parks Canada pass.
Step 7: Determine where you'll take the mandatory Parks Canada orientation.
The orientation takes approximately 1.5 hours and provides current safety information and traveller protocols, as well as introduces visitors to the natural and cultural heritage of the area. At the orientation you will also receive the mandatory permit for travel within Gwaii Haanas. You can either attend the Gwaii Haanas orientation at the amazing Haida Heritage Centre in Skidegate (contact the Gwaii Haanas office or check the Gwaii Haanas trip planner for the schedule), or at our office in Sandspit, based on staff availability and provided it is booked in advance.

What is Rye Flour?
Rye flour is produced by the milling of rye grain. Various types of flour produced through various degrees of purification (removal of outer bran coating) and degree of grinding.
Perhaps the most famous product made with rye flour is pumpernickel bread, a yeast-leavened bread made with the darkest rye flour.
Variations of rye flours include:
Light (patent flour)
Medium (straight grade)
Dark (clear flour)
Rye (Secale cereale), a member of the grass family (Gramineae), is closely related to wheat which has been cultivated since the Neolithic period. It is grown as a winter crop under harsh conditions and accounts for less than 1% of global cereal production.1
About 65% of the rye is harvested in eastern Europe (Russia, Poland, and Germany) due to its adaptation to harsh winters and poor soils. In these regions, rye flour is usually mixed with wheat flour for the production of traditional breads.1
In baking, rye flour has been traditionally used in the production of flat breads and yeast-leavened breads. Such breads can vary in crumb color from practically white to dark-brown, in shape from round to elongated, and in taste from a mildly sour to a strong distinctive acidic.
This flour is preferred for the production of sourdough starters and artisan breads, especially in Germany, Poland, Ukraine, and other European countries. Te grain is also used to produce alcoholic beverages.
Commercial production
The rye kernel is more pointed and longer than wheat and barley. Like other cereals, it is composed of starchy endosperm (86.5%), bran (10%), and the germ (3.5%).
Milling rye flour follows the same process principles as those of wheat. Rye and triticale usually have a softer endosperm compared to hard or durum wheat and therefore are tempered to lower moisture contents.
Generally, rye flour has less starch and protein but more fiber and free sugar compared with wheat. Its protein content is comparable to other cereals.
Composition of rye kernel2,3
Content (%)
Starch 57.0 – 65.6
Non-starch polysaccharides (NSPs) 13.0 – 15.0
Arabinoxylans 6.5 – 12.2
Mixed-linkage β-glucans 1.5 – 2.6
Cellulose 2.1 – 2.6
Fructans 4.6 – 6.6
Protein (globulins, albumin, prolamins and glutelins) 8.0 – 17.7
Lipids 2.0 – 2.5
Minerals 1.7 – 2.2
Rye flour should not be used to bake gluten-free products, from an allergenic viewpoint.
Historically, rye flour has been known as "poor man's wheat flour." Rye's breadmaking performance is markedly lower than that of wheat. When rye flour is in bread, several formula adjustments are needed to produce acceptable product volume and texture.
The lower breadmaking quality of rye flour lies in its protein composition. Rye prolamins (secalins) behave quite differently from wheat prolamins in baking, as they are not able to create comparable amounts of polymeric proteins to form a continuous viscoelastic gluten-type network as in wheat baking. As a consequence, the structure of rye bread is very different from that of wheat bread.
Cell walls and their polysaccharides have an important role in whole-meal rye bread baking. Arabinoxylans are the main water-binding polymers in rye dough and are thus important for rye dough rheology and gas retention properties.
Rye bread is typically prepared without addition of fat, milk, or sugar, and only some special types may contain sugar or syrup. Baking with rye differs considerably from wheat. Usually, rye dough is sticky and difficult to handle during baking, and the resulting bread texture is dense and hard.
Some rye bread formulas often call for a 50/50 blend of rye and wheat flour to help increase the strength of the gluten. In North America, rye bread typically contains about 20% rye flour to impart additional flavor and to add color. In Europe, it is more common to see bread loaves made from 100% of this flour.
Rye breads are denser, more moist than their wheat counterparts. Rye bread is usually made of whole-grain rye flour; thus, the dietary fiber content in the final bread is high i.e. approximately 10 g/100 g, delivering approximately 2.5 g per serving of 25 g.

Aloe vera is a type of plant often used in creams and ointments to treat certain skin conditions. It's a popular natural topical treatment--but when this powerful little plant is taken orally as a juice (similar to coconut water), aloe vera juice benefits may provide even more astounding health perks.
But before you run out to your local health food store to look for prepackaged aloe vera juice, it's important to weigh its perks against some of the known drawbacks. Despite the health benefit claims natural remedy enthusiasts have been raving about, it's always best to look for as much proof as possible first before diving into any natural remedy.
First, it's worth knowing that two different substances can be taken from the aloe vera plant: One is a gel-like substance found inside the leaves, while the other is yellowish substance found directly beneath the plant's skin — called latex. Both are used for medicinal purposes, with the latex (the juice) typically used as the type for oral consumption. Many people claim that aloe vera juice can promote weight loss, improve digestion, boost immunity, reduce inflammation, and even provide a general soothing sensation overall. Unfortunately, there just isn't enough scientific evidence out there to back all those claims.
1. Laxative: Despite the significant lack of evidence for some of the claims about its health benefits, aloe vera has long been used as a natural laxative throughout history for its ability to get the bowels moving and encourage elimination within several hours of consumption. According to the Natural Standard Research Collaboration, short-term use of aloe's latex substance is generally safe, but prolonged use may cause dehydration and an imbalance in electrolytes. There also may be a risk of diarrhea or vomiting, which is typically associated with anthraquinone contaminants of the aloe gel substance.
Preliminary evidence also suggests that people who suffer from mild to moderate ulcerative colitis can significantly reduce their symptoms by consuming aloe gel.
2. Lower cholesterol:Research has shown that consuming aloe vera orally may also reduce total cholesterol and triglycerides in people with hyperlipidemia.
3. Nutrient-dense: One thing that's particularly clear about aloe vera is that it's very rich in nutrients, containing a wide variety vitamins and minerals. Aloe vera contains vitamins A, C, E, folic acid, and many other B vitamins. In fact, it's one of the only plants that actually contains B12. It also contains magnesium, zinc, calcium, selenium, sodium, chromium, iron and potassium.
4. Beauty benefits: People with irritated skin or other dermatological conditions may benefit from applying aloe vera directly to the affected areas. There's reasonable evidence that the topical application of aloe vera can be an effective treatment of burn wounds, but there's conflicting evidence in its use to treat psoriasis, dermatitis, and surgical wounds.
In terms of consuming aloe vera juice for its suggested health benefits, the biggest risk associated with it is that the positive and negative effects on humans are still widely unknown. Some studies have been conducted on animals, but there simply hasn't been enough experimentation yet with how it really impacts the long-term health of people.
Aloe latex used to be an ingredient used in certain types of over-the-counter laxatives several years ago, but some people who had been taking the laxatives ended up developing tolerances. The FDA made it a requirement for manufacturers to remove it due to a lack of safety data.
There have been some concerns about the consumption of aloe vera and its potential to cause cancer, but as of now, it's not certain whether that's true or not. Depending on what part of the plant is used (gel or latex) including how it has been processed can alter its compounds and affect the body in different ways, which again only emphasizes how much research need done on the human use of aloe vera.
Talk to your doctor first before you start consuming aloe vera orally. This is especially important if you have any known allergies to plants, if you're pregnant, if you have a history of renal or cardiac disorders, or if you're currently taking any other medications.
Put all ingredients in a blender. Add some (optional) ice, water, or coconut depending on the consistency you want and blend until smooth.

Canadian football player fined for wearing pink gloves
By Lynn Curwin Oct 29, 2010 in Sports
Winnipeg - A Winnipeg Blue Bombers player has been fined for wearing pink gloves to support breast cancer awareness during a CFL football game.
Jon Oosterhuis wore the gloves on October 23, during a game against the Toronto Argonauts.
CBC News reported that the Canadian Football League fined him $200 for not following the policy which states players are only to wear team-approved colours.
Players on a few teams had requested to be allowed to wear the gloves, as NFL players have been permission to do, but were told they were not allowed.
Marcus Adams, of the Saskatchewan Roughriders, had wanted to wear pink gloves during a game to honour his mother, who is fighting breast cancer.
"It's very frustrating because this is a professional league, and the NFL is a professional league, and that whole league supports pink and breast cancer and stuff like that, and I don't understand why this league don't support it and I never will," Adams told Regina's NewsTalk 980 radio station.
He was informed that any player wearing pink would be removed from the field until they removed the item which violated policy.
Several CFL players wore pink gloves during practice. Autographed gloves were later put online for auction.
The National Football League allows pink items such as gloves, shoes, sweatbands, mouth guards and chin straps during October. All items are later auctioned to raise funds for charities.
"If we are going to allow our uniforms to be used to support any single cause, we need to ensure it is done the right way, backed by a comprehensive, league-wide public awareness and fundraising campaign, something that wasn't in place this season but that we're considering for next season," Mark Cohon, commissioner of the Canadian Football League, wrote in an online column.
"We also need to ensure that in embracing one cause through our uniform policy, we are being fair to the many others who turn to our league for support."
He said the league is planning to take part in discussions with the Canadian Cancer Society during the off-season.

Les constants de Champernowne són una sèrie de nombres reals construïts per tal de ser b-normals (la segona constant de Champernowne o constant binària de Champernowne és 2-normal, la tercera o ternària és 3-normal...). Es construeixen a partir de la segona constant (o constant binària) com el nombre entre 0 i 1 obtingut concatenant els nombres naturals en base b als dígits decimals. Així, les primeres constants de Champernowne són:

 Constant binària: 0,1 10 11 100 101 110 ...₂
 Constant ternària: 0,1 2 10 11 12 20 21 ...₃
 Constant quaternària: 0,1 2 3 10 11 12 ...₄

La desena constant de Champernowne, sovint coneguda senzillament com a constant de Champernowne, pren el valor 0,12345678910111213... i és la més popular, doncs és un nombre normal en base 10.

Reben el nom del matemàtic que les definí per primera vegada l'any 1933, l'anglès David Champernowne.

Errors de concepte freqüents
No s'ha de confondre la constant de Champernowne b-ària amb la (desena) constant de Champernowne en base b. Com és fàcil veure, la constant de Champernowne 0,12345...10 en base 2 s'expressa 0,00011...₂, mentre que la constant binària val 0,11011...₂

Getting your Apple Watch set up is fairly basic, but to truly make this your own personal device, you'll need to dig into the Apple Watch settings.
You can do all of these things on the Apple Watch itself, but why force yourself to tap and swipe on that tiny screen? Use the Apple Watch app on your iPhone for a much more pleasant experience. You can thank me later.
Launch the Apple Watch app on your iPhone, and you'll see My Watch in the lower left as your default view. You can tap "Explore" to view various Apple Watch videos, "Featured" to see the Apple Watch app store section (complete with circular app icons) or "Search" to do your own thing and find that app you just have to have.
Tapping back on "My Watch," you'll see that you can tap through to set up your App layout, turn on Airplane mode, and pair more Apple Watches to your iPhone. You can also unpair your Watch here. Airplane mode lets you set your Apple Watch up to mirror the setting on your iPhone – pretty handy!
Notifications works similarly to what you may be used to in iOS, only there are a ton of new variables. Tap on "Notifications" to get to the main screen — toggle the Notifications Indicator ON to see the red dot at the top of your Apple Watch that denotes you have Notifications to deal with, and toggle Notification Privacy to ON if you don't want your watch to display the full monty every time you get a text or app notification.
I'd personally love to be able to turn off the Passcode and avoid having to type in something numeric on my wristwatch, but I've enabled the next best thing: Unlock with iPhone. When that setting is toggled to ON in the Passcode settings screen, unlocking your iPhone will automatically unlock your Apple Watch when you're wearing it, making tapping in your passcode happen less often.
Each of your built-in Apple Watch apps also have their own set of settings, which you can swipe down to on the iPhone Apple Watch app. You can add Friends for your watch in there, set up Mail (which needs to be set up on your iPhone first) and decide what to show on your Workout app. You can also choose how your Apple Watch will tell you about your Activity goals.
Swipe even farther down on your Apple Watch app, and you'll access the settings for all the third-party Apple Watch apps. Most of the settings here have to do with whether you'll see the companion apps on your Apple Watch, so just tap through to the apps you want to appear and toggle "Show App on Apple Watch" to ON. Some apps also have a "Show in Glances" toggle, and you can tap that to ON as well.
Ultimately, the more you know the Settings on your Apple Watch, the happier you'll be. Setting things up for your own personal preferences is the best way to feel less confused, and more in control, of Apple's most personal device ever.


Savile Row's reputation is built upon its heritage. The recent opening up of the archives of Savile Row's oldest surviving tailor, Henry Poole & Co, shows this. The archives, which include 130 handwritten books, detail the purchases of many high-profile customers over the street's long history of providing suits to Europe's wealthiest. Dating back to 1865, they are believed to be the oldest surviving records of any tailor. Included on the list is Winston Churchill, noted as having an outstanding bill. The wartime leader, according to the records, refused to pay his tab, totalling £137, after a dispute with the tailors. Luminaries recorded in the ledger include some of the most powerful and wealthy men that ruled Europe in its age of dominance, such as the 19th-century 'Iron Chancellor' Otto von Bismarck. All along Savile Row, the titans of the 19th and 20th centuries purchased their clothing – from world-changing politicians such as US President Harry Truman to cultural icons such as the Beatles and Mick Jagger. This history is the lifeblood of the legendary street.
Savile Row's unique heritage is drawn from the aforementioned past clients, along with a reputation for high-quality bespoke tailoring. However, increasingly, non-bespoke, more modern tailors have moved into the street and surrounding area, looking to benefit from the prestige that the name brings, without necessarily conforming to the bespoke style of tailoring that made Savile Row what it is. Along with this, feeling that they must keep up with the times, some traditional Savile Row tailors have started to look towards ready-to-wear clothing in recent years. Increasingly, it seems, Savile Row's history and heritage is being drawn upon to sell clothes that do not represent what the street is known for.
The origins of Savile Row date back to the 18th century, when tailors began to congregate around nearby Cork Street, in hope of catering to the wealthy clientele located in the area. In 1803, tailors started to move into the street itself. Soon, many of the now-famous names appeared, such as Gieves & Hawkes, Kilgour & French, Norton & Sons, Dege & Skinner, and Henry Poole & Co. Savile Row came to prominence in the mid 19th century, becoming the place where the suit itself, along with other sartorial classics such as the smoking jacket and dinner suit, was invented. Henry Poole & Co, which still has a presence on the street, is widely credited with these creations. The street became known as a place to purchase the best quality, made-to-order custom suits, most of which were handmade.
Likewise, as William Skinner, MD at Dege & Skinner, observed: "Like our one-off pieces of bespoke tailoring, each individual customer is exactly that – an individual with their own sartorial taste. Some people are drawn to our illustrious history, while others are more interested in the cloth and its provenance." Increasingly, however, this bespoke style is seeing new, non-bespoke clothing and tailors presenting a challenge.
Menswear has seen an explosion in popularity and growth in the past two decades, and is still ever on the increase. According to Quartz: "Men have been spending more on their outfits each year for well over a decade now – menswear sales, adjusted for inflation, are up 70 percent since 1998." Male clothing was also on track to be the fastest-growing category in online retail between 2010 and 2015. This has been felt on Savile Row.
In an age of growing interest in ready-to-wear fashion brands, some tailors on Savile Row have eyed an opportunity to expand beyond the bespoke, customised tailoring that used to define the street. One of the key pioneers of expanding Savile Row into ready-to-wear collections has been Carlo Brandelli. In 2003, with Brandelli as creative director, Kilgour – a 130-year-old Savile Row tailor – took a foray in this direction. Initially, the push into ready-to-wear collections was cut short by a change in ownership, resulting in Brandelli leaving the company. By 2014, however, its focus was back and so was Brandelli. Kilgour is once again selling ready-to-wear items, including through an exclusive deal with the online fashion retail giant Net-a-Porter, through its Mr Porter menswear division.
However, there is a third way – many see ready-to-wear collections as complementary to traditional tailoring. Indeed, the modern trend can open up the world of bespoke tailoring to new customers. "It's also breaking down the boundaries, as a new person buying a ten-pound pocket square can go into our haberdashery and see the bespoke clothes styled in a more relaxed way, more casually. It can dispel this slightly austere, unwelcoming, closed Savile Row world", noted Anda Rowland, Vice Chairman of Anderson & Sheppard, in an interview with Business of Fashion.
Other traditional tailors on the Row, however, are not so keen on the ready-to-wear market. Anderson told European CEO the "ready-to-wear market has got stronger" since he first started on the street in 1982. His commitment to the traditions of Savile Row is demonstrated by the fact that his company is, he noted, "possibly one of the last remaining tailors to put sleeves and shoulders in by hand". He pointed out that the growth of ready-to-wear means that his firm must "keep a clear distance in terms of our product".
At the same time, while some big names on Savile Row are embracing ready-to-wear clothing, there is also an increasing trend of tailors renting spaces on Savile Row, yet not making the sort of bespoke suit that defined the street. Such tailors are a growing phenomenon. As Ramroop noted, one of the biggest changes he has seen over the years is a "growing number of 'fly by night' brands". This dates back a number of decades, but is becoming increasingly prevalent, forcing many traditional bespoke tailors to take action.
The difference is not merely academic. For many traditional Savile Row tailors, a suit is only truly a Savile Row bespoke suit if it meets a number of conditions. Firstly, it must be a unique pattern and a one-off garment. Secondly, the suit itself must be made on Savile Row. Tailors renting spaces on the street to take suit appointments, but then producing the suits elsewhere, threaten the very foundation of what Savile Row is. They are, in effect, using the name and heritage of Savile Row without embracing the very qualities that made the street what it is.
With its long history, Savile Row has become synonymous with the idea of bespoke tailoring, providing clothing for the wealthiest and most powerful. Having a variety of esteemed names on its list of former customers boosts the sense of prestige that Savile Row embodies. This is part of its heritage. However, the defining feature of Savile Row – and indeed why it can boast such past patrons – is the quality and specific type of clothing it has become known to provide.
The two key aspects of its heritage – the clientele it attracted and the quality of its garments – were for a long time complementary. Symbiotic, if you will. Now, however, the relationship is under threat. The two are at risk of becoming decoupled. The fear is that the heritage of Savile Row will become merely a historical reference point. It will be used as a brand name, but the defining Savile Row suit will be swamped out. The increasing prevalence of non-bespoke tailoring and ready-to-wear collections raises the prospect of such clothes, now found widely along Savile Row, merely making use of the street's heritage as a historical curiosity and a branding tool. Yet it is the very quality of the bespoke Savile Row suit that makes the street appealing in the first place. As Bryan Manning of Manning & Manning noted in an interview: "It is the quality that creates the appeal." While an illustrious history is nice, "if the quality wasn't there, history alone would not keep them coming".

Depends on the day and travel involved. Anywhere from 8.30am to midday. I try not to be a slave to being "office" based.
Massively – it's what makes it so rewarding. Meeting clients, new talent, pitching and then working out whether we should have a bring your dog to work policy or not.
The job is brilliantly creative. I am continually inspired by the teams and clients I work with.
An old boss told me that 'management by walking about' was key. It has served me pretty well.
Yes. Right now, I see a picture of my kids, a framed Periodic Table of Swearing, a signed baseball and a rock paperweight that my daughter painted.
Well I am definitely not the Excel spreadsheet guy! If I wasn't doing this I would want to be a child's illustrator.
There is no chanting or incense I'm afraid just a couple of double espressos and an all too infrequent street gym with our agency personal trainer.
With colleagues. Always. I love the camaraderie and sense of team.
Somewhere between the Dutch and Japanese average. It's quality not quantity.
Each of them are valuable in small doses. I try to keep emails at bay by face-to-face chats. I always take client calls. I try to limit internal meetings to 30mins each and no more than four a day.
Yes. We have an active Facebook, Instagram and Twitter presence. Personally – LinkedIn is probably a vice for me.
No day is the same – it is always a continual grenade of colour.
I have no control of the company's Spotify account. Let's be honest, no one wants to listen to my U2 or Happy Mondays collection continuously.
We have a great staff cafe so either there or a sandwich at my desk. I try to limit business lunches as it hits the midriff.
We are a sociable bunch but let's be honest – everyone has a better time once the boss leaves!
At my first job in a field marketing agency I spent weeks doing data entry. I am glad to see the back of it.
A quick stroll around the agency to encourage people to go home and have a life.
If I am staying in London or Manchester then maybe a film or gym. If I am at home up near York then it is kid's homework, cooking a meal and convincing myself that a glass or two of red a day has enormous health benefits.
Yes. God that's tragic isn't it?
I try not to physically – but mentally it can be tough to switch off.
Play as much rugby as you can before your knees give out.
I would happily shadow The Times cartoonist Peter Brooks for a day. He is a living genius.
Yes – they are one and the same – it's why after the kids use it I end up with a phone that flashes up with the game "It's Toilet Time" when I am in meetings.
