He said he did everything he could and accepted the outcome with grace.
In an interview with the USA TODAY NETWORK-Tennessee, Yerger, who's now a model and real estate agent in Los Angeles, shared his thoughts on his final Tribal Council, how he played the game, other players, how the show has affected him and if he will come back for another season.

More: 'Survivor: Ghost Island': Michael Yerger saves himself from elimination with idol
At Yerger's final Tribal Council, he and Laurel Johnson, Domenick Abbate, Wendell Holland and Kellyn Bechtold were on a team.
Yerger lied to Bechtold and the others beforehand and said he had an immunity idol and would play it. Bechtold believed him, and they planned to vote out Johnson with the help of either Abbate or Holland.
"So when I talked to Kellyn, I could tell that she was halfway buying the idol thing, and you know, she was pretty gullible with me at that moment, and she was confident that she could swing one of the guys to vote out Laurel (Johnson) because me and her didn't quite know how close Wendell (Holland) and Laurel (Johnson) were, so we thought, 'Hey if Kellyn can be the middle man between me and the guys and kind of create that urgency and scare them that I might have an idol and blindside one of them, let's go ahead and knock off Laurel (Johnson).'"
Before Tribal Council, Bechtold told Yerger she didn't think one of the guys would vote for Johnson, so Yerger said he pulled in Johnson and thought he had the numbers to blindside Holland.
When it was time to vote, things didn't go according to plan.
Johnson voted for Bechtold. Yerger voted for Holland. Bechtold used her vote and an extra vote advantage to cast two votes for Johnson. Holland and Abbate voted for Yerger.
That left Yerger and Johnson with two votes, so Bechtold, Holland and Abbate got to do a revote. When they realized Yerger didn't have an idol to play, they sent him home.
How he feels about his choices

While on the show, Yerger often had a target on his back and was usually in the minority alongside the other former Malolo tribe members.

Former Naviti tribe members wanted to take him out multiple times, and he said he was proud that he fended them off for a while.
"Overall I'm very very pleased. I mean obviously with how many I guess ... times that I had a target on my back, I lasted a pretty long time, so I'm very pleased with the game I played. I'm proud of it, and that's obviously what the goal is for everybody to be proud of the game they played, so I'm happy that I can say that," Yerger said.
"Obviously, I'm a competitive player, and yeah, you know I have unfinished business out there. I wanted to win so badly, so it was very frustrating, you know, to have a minority almost every swap and whatever it might be, so I definitely have my frustrations, but looking back on it, I wouldn't trade it for the world. I was super pleased with the overall outcome, and the way I went out, it was exactly how I would've wanted to, and it was with grace and you know, overall I'm just really pleased with it."
What he would have changed

Yerger said overall, he would've tried to work with the former Naviti members more, but he couldn't think of a specific choice he would've changed while on the show.

More: 'Survivor: Ghost Island': Michael Yerger narrowly avoids elimination on show
"I would've really tried to work kind of some of the Naviti harder. You know, obviously, I'm a loyal person, and I wanted to stick with Malolo since I knew that's what I had and really trying to work with it, and you know, obviously, I was malleable, and I was able to work with Naviti for certain votes, but yeah, looking back obviously, every decision I made, it's like you almost just wanted to do it twice as hard, and you know, maybe that wouldn't have worked out either," Yerger said.
"Maybe people would've seen me playing too hard, and that would've kind of put the target on my back the same way. Hindsight's 20/20, so I can't say there's one specific move I would've done differently. There's a million things I could've done differently to cause different outcomes of the game. It could be as small as who went to Ghost Island or one conversation. It's just countless different things, so I can't say that there'd be one. It's obviously just the luck of the draw, and it would really just take playing again to give me shot."
Will he come back to the show?

Yerger, who's 19 now and was 18 when the show was filmed, said he would like to return to the show in the future. His dream is to be the youngest "Survivor" winner.

"Yeah I definitely would. Obviously, it's hard with life if it ... comes up at the wrong time. It could be difficult just to drop everything and leave, but it's my dream to win this game, and I still want to be the youngest winner ever, so hopefully if they do, it'll be sooner than later, but yeah, obviously I'll do everything I can to get back out there, and so, I sure hope so," he said.
Why did other players target him?

Other players targeted Yerger multiple times while he was on the show. At his final Tribal Council, Bechtold called him the "idol king," referencing how he found two immunity idols.
Yerger said he had to make moves that placed a target on his back because he was always in the minority.

"I think obviously the hardest part about this game is that you have to play a game worthy of winning in the end if you get there, so it's not like you can fly under the radar too much because then at the end, what are you going to tell everybody that you did? And if you can't explain it, then you don't stand a chance, so it's that balance of playing a game worthy enough to win and also not being too abrasive or in people's faces about the moves you're making, so that you don't create that target, and I thought that I played an exceptional social game and really made bonds," said Yerger.
"I mean you could see at my last Tribal, people that were just head to head against me stood up and gave me a hug, so I think that says something about how I played socially that I really cared about each relationship and all, but as far as the moves I made, you really can't help that. You've got to make those big moves especially when you're on the bottom. People are expecting you to make them anyway. People were expecting me to search for idols almost like — not that I had permission — but it was expected, so just in that position, I think that that was my only move, and of course, that would put a target on my back, so I just had to keep fighting every week and keep maneuvering and working those relationships and trying to get further.
How has 'Survivor' changed your life?

For Yerger, the relationships he made on "Survivor" with his fellow cast mates have had the most impact on his life.

"I mean I'd definitely say it's broadened my horizon as far as friendships go. I've met amazing people through the whole thing. I've gotten to travel and visit different members of the cast and see their cities and meet their families and all that, so a lot of it is this social family type feeling that we're now in," said Yerger.
"As far as the exposure on the show, obviously, it's been fun getting some attention and having that, but it comes and goes, so that hasn't changed my life in any way really. It's more so just having that experience and living that dream, and now having these people in my life 'cause I can say honestly, the majority of the cast, I will be keeping up with for the long run, and I've made some really long-term, real friends through it, so that's been the most amazing thing to me."
Whose gameplay impressed you the most?
From left are "Survivor: Ghost Island" contestants Jenna Bowman, Michael Yerger and Domenick Abbate . (Photo: Robert Voets/CBS Entertainment)
Out of the "Survivor: Ghost Island" cast, Yerger said Abbate's gameplay impressed him the most because of his social game and his constant focus on what went on during the show.
"While I was there, I'd probably have to say Dom's (Abbate). Simply because you know, Dom would ... make these strategic moves so outwardly whereas people like Chelsea (Townsend) or Wendell (Holland) might be a little more behind the scenes. Even Kellyn (Bechtold). They were kind of hidden with it, but Dom was very out there. He's from Long Island. He's got a big voice, so the fact that it was kind of out there for everybody to see yet he still kept his power position, maintained relationships and kept himself in the right position at all times was remarkable to me, and obviously, going up against him was frustrating, but then looking at it from fan's point of view, which is what I always want to do because I'm a student of the game and game respect game, no bitterness at all to anybody, and I was really impressed with his game thus far."
Yerger said Abbate also has another side to him.
"Dom's a great guy, a very nice guy, but he's a New Yorker. He's got some grit to him, so I definitely think he's got another side that maybe he's hiding from some people as well."

Sound Ideas and their 40-year-long journey of producing sound effects and production music
Have you ever listened to a piece of background music in a movie or drama and been immediately fascinated by the tune? Have you ever tried to make something of that sort, music that can describe your feelings? You might have wanted to have music according to your desire and taste when you become a filmmaking student or someone with a passion for making vlogs, videos, short skits, and animation.
Here comes the most significant problem you will face when it comes to getting music that you like, that is not producing the same thing you have in your mind. You may go to your musician friend, and maybe he won't make the music that you like; you might go for free music available on the internet to have the tune in your mind, but nothing seems to work your way.
Worry not, as we have a perfect solution for your problem; all you have to do is take your laptop or mobile phone and search Sound Ideas.
When it comes to making music that you want according to your taste and desire, Sound Ideas is here to help you.
A brief history of Sound Ideas
The company was founded in 1978 as a recording studio. Sound Ideas produced the first royalty-free sound effects library on reel to reel tape in 1979. Then they made a CD of the same collections and released it in 1985 with the help of the Phillips Corporation in the Netherlands. And then, they released another compilation; Series 2000 was the most famous among their collections as it is considered a 22-CD set that was the world's first fully digital sound effect library.
They even have exclusive contracts with renowned film studios, including Hanna-Barbera, Lucasfilm, Turner Entertainment, Twentieth Century Fox, Warner Bros., Jay Ward Productions, and the Saul Zaentz Film Center.
They didn't get lost in time because they could mold themselves into the trends of the time. First, they started selling their songs through CDS, and now you can download the music through their website.
Sound Ideas sells high-quality royalty-free music to its clients. The main product of their success is The Mix Music Library which is a tremendous resource for commercial and promotional. Their production element collections like Element Café and The Big Whoosh are staples of the broadcast imaging industry. Which includes sounds of whooshes, transitions, bumpers, dissolves, beds, IDs, intros, logos, and every imaging working part you can think of.
They work with an international network of the best sound recordists and designers in the business who are either commissioned to create a product or submit field recordings for review and inclusion in upcoming releases; rigorous in-house mastering, development of metadata and documentation, in-house graphic art creative, demanding release schedule: products released simultaneously through SoundDogs.com and other propriety sites.
You can contact them through their website and ask for their services; you have to spend a small amount of money, and you have your desired music.

Q: How To Use i18n.tr in Ubuntu Touch Projects I have been using i18n.tr for a while in my Ubuntu-Touch projects. I know what this function is about but I don't know how to add a translation to my project.
Where do I have to place my translation file?
With what name?
How must its content be written?
How should I connect it with my app?
How do I test it with qmlscene ?

A: Take a look at TouchWriter code and especially its README, where all needed commands are given.
Quick summary

*

*You need to bind the text domain before using gettext. In C++ you can do it like this:
bindtextdomain("domainname", "somedir");
textdomain("domainname");

In Qml you can probably do something like this:
i18n.bindtextdomain("domainname", "somedir");
i18n.domain = "domainname";

Be sure to do that before 18n.tr is used.

*To generate .pot template and source .po files, use these commands:
xgettext -C --qt --keyword=tr -p somedir -o messages.pot
msginit -i somedir/messages.pot -o somedir/somelanguage.po

(replace somedir with the directory your domain is bound to, and somelanguage with the language you want to translate to).

*To generate .mo files from source .po files, use msgfmt po-file -o mo-file command.

*Compiled .mo files should be placed inside a directory you bound the text domain to, more specifically in
somedir/somelanguage/LC_MESSAGES/domainname.mo

(replace somedir, somelanguage and domainname with your values).

A: The best answer seems to be in the doc. http://developer.ubuntu.com/api/ubuntu-12.10/qml/mobile/qml-ubuntu-components0-i18n.html
It seems to be a function that translates the word passed to the user's language.

Relations between France and Angola have not always been cordial, due to the former French government's policy of supporting militant separatists in Angola's Cabinda Province. The international Angolagate scandal embarrassed both governments, by exposing corruption and illicit arms deals. Following French President Nicolas Sarkozy's visit in 2008, relations have improved.

History
Agostinho Neto, the leader of the People's Movement for the Liberation of Angola (MPLA), declared the independence of the People's Republic of Angola on November 11, 1975, in accordance with the Alvor Accords. National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (UNITA) and the National Liberation Front of Angola (FNLA) also declared Angolan independence as the Social Democratic Republic of Angola based in Huambo and the Democratic Republic of Angola based in Ambriz. The Front for the Liberation of the Enclave of Cabinda (FLEC), armed and backed by the French government, declared the independence of the Republic of Cabinda in Paris.

Diplomatic missions

Francis Blondet was the ambassador of France to Angola.
The current French ambassador is Sylvain Itté. Angola maintains an embassy in Paris and France maintains an embassy in Luanda.

State visits
President José Eduardo dos Santos traveled to France, Italy, and Spain, meeting with politicians and business leaders in September 1984.

In 1998, President Jacques Chirac visited Angola.

French President Sarkozy visited Angola in May 2008. During this visit, Sarkozy said his aim in meeting his Angolan counterpart, President dos Santos, was "to turn the page from the misunderstandings of the past and build a future based on trust and mutual respect".

During this visit, Sarkozy announced greatly increased French assistance to Angola:
France wishes to play a full part in the rebuilding of Angola in every sphere, in infrastructure as well as in human resources. As regards infrastructure, we have already decided to resume the activities of the French Development Agency (AFD) which will fund major projects in the fields of energy, water, sanitation, and also in vocational training. An AFD agency will reopen in Luanda before the end of 2008.

Agreements
During Sarkozy's 2008 visit, four cooperation and development accords were signed in the areas of health, sanitation, higher education and French language instruction.

Trade and investment
In 2008, French defence and security company Thales won a contract worth approximately 140 million EUR   to supply a secure telecommunications network for the Angolan government. Also in 2008, French bank Société Générale opened US$300 million of credit lines to finance trade between the two countries.

In 2007, France imported €541 million worth of goods to Angola which meant that France was Angola's 6th highest importer.

In 2016, trade between France and Angola was worth US$1.31 billion. French exports to Angola amounted to US$284.2 million and Angolan exports to France amounted to US$1.03 billion

Education
Lycée Français de Luanda is a French international school in Luanda.

Migration

French Angolans

French Angolans are Angolans with French ancestry or French people who resided and/or live in Angola. They form one of the largest French diaspora communities in Africa, outside Françafrique.

"Petri Germination Methods for an Extinct Species" I 2018 I video, viewing box, cryptoflora essence from the otherwhere; Somniferic spuomel var. officinalis Common Name: Sleepy Spitting Honey Flower I 3 min. 19 sec.
For its first exhibition of 2018, Hamiltonian Gallery is pleased to present two new bodies of work by multi-media artists Antonio McAfee and Rachel Guardiola. The exhibitions will open with a reception on Saturday, January 13 from 7 - 9 pm; both artists will be in attendance.
In "Old Bad Air", artist Antonio McAfee presents a series of haunting images that use 19th century black and white portraits of people of color as source material. These spectral portraits have an unsettled presence due to the collaging, stripping and manipulating McAfee enacts upon the images during their creation. Collectively, the images are a revisiting of the storied and traumatic past of people of color in the United States; a history with, as author Ralph Ellison phrases it in his classic novel "Invisible Man", the putrid whiff of "Old Bad Air". That troubled history, much like the figure in McAfee's images, demands exhumation, re-examination and re-framing in order to continue its evolution into the present day and beyond.
"A Hand Without A Horizon is Taller than its Other" is artist Rachel Guardiola's ongoing project that explores humanity's relationship to the wilderness through a fantastical narrative that charts the activities of a series of fictional characters on an earth-like planet. In this installment, Guardiola performs as a time-traveling surveyor and a horticultural pirate that conduct experiments and mysterious rituals as they traverse mysterious topographies including icy desert landscapes and lush, hidden forests. Using lens-based media, Guardiola fleshes out an alternate universe in which her characters discover and re-cultivate a distant, post-industrial wasteland.
Photographer Antonio McAfee (b. 1983, Baltimore, MD) holds a BFA in Fine Art Photography from the Corcoran College of Art and Design (2007), an MFA from the University of Pennsylvania (2009) and a Post-Graduate Diploma in Arts and Culture Management from the University of Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa (2011), for which he was awarded a Fulbright Grant. McAfee has exhibited extensively in Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington, DC, and has two forthcoming solo exhibitions at the Institute of Contemporary Art in Baltimore, MD and DC Arts Center in 2018. He lives and works in Baltimore, MD.
Rachel Guardiola (b. 1985, Bethpage, NY) is an interdisciplinary artist who often utilizes lens based technology to construct mythologies of future past terrain inspired by periods of her own navigation through extreme landscapes. Guardiola has exhibited internationally in the United States, Iceland, Denmark, France, Italy and Senegal. She was an artist-in-residence at the AIR Gallery Summer Residency at The Governor's Island, New York, NY (2017), Arctic Circle Art & Science Expedition in Svalbard (2016), Vermont Studio Center, Johnson, VT (2016). She holds an MFA from the Maryland Institute College of Art (2015) and a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design (2007).


Pushing myself to ride and race the way I think I can.
Everything dialed in before the race, lots of visualization. Good food good warm up, and don't overthink it in the gate!
Dissent Socks, Foam Roller, shorts that don't catch on your knees when squatting!
Anthony Evans started racing downhill mountain bikes in 2003. He's competitive by nature, but also cautious, so he slowly improved over the years to where he is now. Following a couple of major injuries and a brief hiatus from racing to attend school, Anthony has been training and building up over the last seven years racing professionally to attend his first World Cup. His goals in mountain biking are to continually improve as rider, athlete and person in general.
Once done with racing, Anthony plans on giving back to the mountain bike community he loves with trail advocacy and coaching. You can catch Anthony this summer ripping the trails at Bike Big White!


"How do I become an astronaut?" is a question that our Human Resources team often hears. So far, astronaut selection campaigns have only taken place three times since the European Space Agency was created in 1975: the first campaign was in 1978-1979; the second one in 1991- 1992; the most recent astronaut campaign ran during a nine month period in 2008 and 2009.
Please be aware that the European Space Agency is not currently looking for new astronauts, but as you'll hear in the video statement from an expert on the subject: it is never too early to start preparing for your future!
Watch the video and discover everything from who's part of the European Astronaut Corps, what a typical selection campaign looks like, and what 'on the job' training new astronauts get. Read about the last astronaut selection here, and see what kind of testing the aspiring astronauts of the last selection had to go through here.

Q: make HttpClient Request visual c# with request headers and body I want to make a request with HttpClient for with below format:
Headers:
X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest
User-Agent: .....  //etc.

Important part is request body that makes me confused:
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"getPostList","id":1,"params":[[["place2",0,["10"]]],0]}

I made some code like this:
HttpClient h = new HttpClient();

h.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("X-Requested-With","XMLHttpRequest");
h.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("User-Agent", "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.2; WOW64; rv:33.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/33.0");
h.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Referer","http://urmia.divar.ir/browse/");
h.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Pragma","no-cache");
h.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Host","urmia.divar.ir");
//h.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Content-Type","application/json; charset=UTF-8");
h.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Connection","keep-alive");
h.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Accept-Language","en-US,en;q=0.5");
h.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Accept-Encoding","gzip, deflate");
h.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Accept","application/json, text/javascript, */*; q=0.01");

var request = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Post, "http://urmia.divar.ir/json/");

request.Content.Headers.AddWithoutValidation("jsonrpc","2.0");
request.Content.Headers.Add("method", "getPostList");
request.Content.Headers.Add("id", "1");
request.Content.Headers.Add("params", "[[[\"place2\",0,[\"10\"]]],0]");

but it gives error for request.Content.Headers.add....

A: No idea what that request returns - but it seems to be binary...
This is the how I managed to get a response - whatever it may be :)
So as the example code shows, I put the JSON request object into the body of the request message.

using System.Threading.Tasks;

DevelopSpringfield recently completed the purchase of 77 Maple Street from Springfield Preservation Trust (SPT). This historic building is adjacent to 83 Maple Street and additional abutting property already owned by DevelopSpringfield.
Springfield Preservation Trust intervened in 2009 to save the property from demolition. Built in 1832 as the Springfield Female Seminary, the property had fallen into disrepair. Through fundraising and hard work SPT has made significant structural repairs as well as restoration of the home's large historic windows.
The addition of this property to DevelopSpringfield's portfolio will allow for comprehensive redevelopment of the parcel as a whole. In addition to the Ansel Phelps at 83 Maple Street, DevelopSpringfield also owns a former carriage house and row of garages on an abutting parcel and an adjacent vacant lot that will provide parking, access and green space to support both buildings.
"Springfield Preservation Trust has made terrific progress in stabilizing the structure and preparing it for the next stage of rehabilitation," said Jay Minkarah, president and CEO of DevelopSpringfield. "We are ready to begin redeveloping the property as part of a truly unique professional office park. The rehabilitation of these historic homes as professional offices will provide exceptional quality space for those who appreciate history and architecture in a highly visible location within walking distance of the downtown core."

This Week, June 6-10: Venture Through the Looking Glass and Celebrate Prince's Birthday
Jennifer Davis-Lamm
| Things To Do |
Jennifer Davis-Lamm | June 6, 2016 | 4:10pm
Here's what we're excited about, Dallas: putting our rain boots in storage; getting a respite from school speed zones for a couple of months; picnic blankets; excuses to eat watermelon; lots of music; and a summer arts calendar that makes us sweat in the best possible way. All of those things are possible this week, too — we've listed just a few reasons to get pumped about the week ahead.
5 p.m. Monday, June 6
1501 Gaylord Trail, Grapevine
Give that special kid in your life a summer kickoff she won't forget with this Alice's Adventures in Wonderland-themed indoor park. Step into an alternate reality where hotel atriums and indoor gardens have been transformed into a fairytale paradise. Think 3-D glasses, vortex tunnels, colorful lights, artwork and much more in this maze of activities and visual delights. Visit marriott.com for more.
Prince: A Tribute Night by Sober and Schwa
10 p.m. Tuesday, June 7
2617 Commerce St.
Tickets TBA
It still smarts. It probably always will. Prince's genius was that he appealed to just about everyone — he was talented, eccentric, beautiful and totally accessible. DJ Sober and Tony Schwa pay tribute to the Purple One on his birthday, with live performances from Sudie, Picnictyme, Rat Rios, Ronnie Heart and Sam Lao, plus a Prince set that gets all kinds of crazy and a Prince look-a-like contest that promises enough purple velvet to mend your heart — at least for the evening. Visit RBC's website for more.
Beautiful: The Carole King Musical
8 p.m. Wednesday, June 8
AT&T Performing Arts Center
2403 Flora St.
If you grew up in the '70s and '80s, chances are that your momma kept Carole King's Tapestry album on standby. That album cover, featuring King sitting by a windowsill with a cat, was muted and still, belying the powerhouse songs etched onto the record inside it. It was a soundtrack for a generation of women, written by the complicated and creative musician who grew up in Brooklyn as Carol Klein. Beautiful: The Carole King Musical introduces us to Klein, and punctuates her genesis into blockbuster pop star with the hit songs she penned. Abby Mueller sings her heart out as the titular artist, and you'll find yourself hard-pressed not to sing along during this touring production.
Heart Strings
7:30 p.m. Thursday, June 9
Dallas City Performance Hall
We've seen the world's biggest music snob crank up Taylor Swift's "This Love" and let some tears flow, so we're not gonna deny the power of the love song. It's real, it's powerful and dammit if it's not totally stuck in our heads now, too. The Turtle Creek Chorale loves a good paean to love, too, and they're gonna roll out a bunch of them during this program. From romantic Beethoven compositions to bittersweet pop numbers, the Turtle Creek Chorale gives torch songs and power ballads their signature treatment, and if that's not enough to break through to your heart then perhaps the wedding ceremonies we hear will be conducted mid-show will be. Sniff sniff.
#ashstudios Opening Reception
6 p.m. Friday, June 10
H. Paxton Moore Fine Art Gallery at El Centro College
Main Street at Lamar Street
Local artists, activists and advocates Darryl Ratcliff and Fred Villanueva curate a selection of work that's been featured at their own Ash Studios in the Fair Park area of Dallas for this exhibit, open through July 1. Part social laboratory, part gallery, part venue, part studio, Ash Studios has been responsible for some of the most stimulating arts conversations to come out of Dallas in the past few years. Tonight's opening will also feature an artist's reception.

My dearest friend Rebecca Johnson is one of the most talented gals I know, she is a breath of fresh air as a person and as a designer. Rebecca graduated from the fashion school of Shenkar two years ago at the top of her class, moved to London , where she established her own label called "RIY-KA".
Rebecca is strongly influenced by different cultures; it comes through in the fabric and shape. The fabrics are a combination of recycled denim, leather, batik (which is an African fabric) and wood block printed kahdi fabric. Rebecca creates prints, embroidery and embellishment on some of the pieces, all made by hand. The shapes are mostly smart and geometric.
You can go to RYI-Ka's website to see the entire collection and inspirations. Here, I have to say that Rebecca named two of her pieces in the 2011 spring-summer collection after me, and I'm soooo flattered!!
Check out RIY-KA's really cool blog!
After quite a long period we haven't updated our beloved Braids and Bows blog (busy, busy) we are back! and decided to open with a new crystal necklace DIY project!
1. These are the materials your'e gonna need: 1.5 meter of silk ribbon, plastic crystals and a pair of scissors.
2, 3, 4, 5 String the crystals on the ribbon.
7, 8 Tie the part you just cut next to the last crystal.
13. Cut the edges of the ribbon.
And this is how it looks on me!
We took our lovely photographer Yana, and tried to restore a little bit of the old station atmosphere, without looking completely insane to the people doing their weekend shopping trip.
Haute couture is an extinct skill, but when I saw Givenchy's exquisite haute couture 2010 Fall collection, it reminded me of how divine this school is.
Riccardo Tisci designed these 10 looks inspired by the Mexican artist, Frida Kahlo. In contrast to what may be expected from such a "muse", the inspiration wasn't drawn from Kahlos colorful, chaotic drawings, but rather from her three great passions: religion, anatomy and sensuality, thus resulting in a very soft collection, in pale colors of white, pale pink, gray and dark brown. The collection was represented to a small audience, first on models and later on mannequins- like an art exhibition, in a French Hotel called d'Avreux.
I looked threw the web to find all the details shoots I could get, I found it in Shaded View on Fashion, Vouge.com and Now Fashion. If you want to see the entire collection, you can find it in Style.com and Fashion Gone Rogue.
I can't get enough of this, ain't that just so pretty…?
Sarah moon is one of my all time favorite photographers. Moon, who worked between 1960- 1966 has soft nostalgic esthetics that make her photos look almost like paintings. Sarah is well known for her bleary\smoky signature style that was developed naturally since the photographer is extremely near-sighted. "It was only when I started photography that I became aware of it," Moon told an interviewer. "People would say to me: 'But it's not sharp!', and I didn't understand because that was the way I saw things. I had never worn glasses in my life". Even after she was fitted for glasses, however, Moon continued to follow the stylistic path she began, producing moody, dream-like images that look like a beautiful hallucination. Although until this day she continues to influence many young photographers moon is still relatively known. Along her carrier she shot for most of the big brands and was the first women photographer to ever shoot the famous " Pirelli Calendar ". Aside from her still work moon also shot a short film called " Circus", which was based on the tale "The Little Match Girl" by Hans Christian Andersen.

You might have seen by now how Greenwich Council is bidding to bring the Tall Ships Race to the borough in 2016 – and how leader Chris Roberts led a five-strong council team to Riga, Latvia a couple of weeks back to meet and greet the great and the good of the tall ships world, with council taxpayers picking up the £5,500 bill for their trip to the Tall Ships Conference.
While the trip's already sprouted one success – the borough's been asked to host a regatta in 2014 – it's raised eyebrows among councillors; most didn't know about the bid until Roberts returned from Riga. And why did it take five people – including chief executive Mary Ney, Roberts' spin chief Katrina Delaney and cabinet member Peter Kotz – to make the journey, at a cool £1,140 each?
And as the Tall Ships Race would start from Woolwich rather than Greenwich, couldn't the council's buddies at Berkeley Homes, which is developing the Royal Arsenal site and would benefit from the attention, have coughed up the costs? Or the backers of Sail Royal Greenwich, pictured above at its launch last year, which started this enthusiasm for hoisting masts on the Thames?
As their neighbours in Lewisham display unity over the threat to Lewisham Hospital, Greenwich's Labour councillors have been left wondering quite what their leader is up to once again.
Skip forward, beyond the bit about the bar running out of booze, to 17min 20secs in, where a Dutchman introduces how he works with young people… by dancing to Rednex's novelty 1994 hit Cotton-Eye Joe. And then at 19 mins 20 secs in, where he gets all the delegates to join in.
Previous Will Tesco save or strangle Woolwich?
Thank you for reporting on this. It's just appalling how the council spends money.
The person who introduces the dance does not sound Dutch. He says himself he comes from Poland.
You're probably right there about him being Polish. I'd have another watch, but… mine ears!
But yes, I was young(ish) in 1994, not 2012.
Oh, I think he dances to his own tune, that's the problem.
Ha ha! Good one, Darryl.

Q: Dialog: confirmation when dismissed Topic: I want to be able to cancel a dismiss call on a dialog.
I am entering information thorugh a dialog. When data inside the dialog has changed and the user dismisses the dialog without saving (by pressing back or clicking outside of the dialog), I want to be able to prevent that dismis by showing a confirmation dialog, that asks the user if he really wants do dismiss the dialog.
An analagy for what I am looking for is in VBA, where the cancel-variable of a beforeSave-listener can be set to "true", so that the file is not saved, even though save is pressed.
I could not find a solution that I can place inside the dismissListener of the dialog.
Thanks a lot in advance and best regards!

A: You can maintain the state of dialog open/ close in a boolean and handle it. When you open the dialog you make it true and when user clicks back or outside the dialog check that boolean and show the alert pop-up and when dialog closes (dismisses) make boolean to false.

A: user these methods on your dialog view to prevent cancel dialog
 ProgressDialog progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(this);
 progressDialog.setCanceledOnTouchOutside(false);
 progressDialog.setCancelable(false);
 progressDialog.show();
