Q: Deploying Power Platform Components on Different Subscriptions I have several Power Platform components, such as a Power App and some Power Automate flows that are part of a larger application. This application also consists of a Python package, a SQL database and so on.
I am trying to deploy this application on a client's environment. Now, in terms of the Python package and SQL database, for instance, this would mean deploying it into their Azure subscription or tenant.
How would this work for the Power Platform components? How can I deploy it on their subscription?
Note: I am not sure if subscription is the correct term to use here. As far as I know, Power Platform is not a part of Azure, but it comes under an O365 or D365 subscription?
I know Power Apps and flows can be exported and imported into other environments/subscriptions. But, is there some way I can maybe set up a CI/CD solution in order to achieve this? Maybe using Azure DevOps?
I have come across this, but from what I understand, I believe this is about deploying these components in different environments within the same subscription?,

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/architecture/solution-ideas/articles/azure-devops-continuous-integration-for-power-platform

A: When you use Azure as part of you Power Platform solution, the right term is "tenant". 1 tenant can have multiple power platform environments and azure subscriptions.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/admin/environments-overview#environment-scope

Devops for Power Platform is simpler. Best way to authenticate is using service principal:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/alm/devops-build-tools#connection-to-environments
The Azure part is more complicated. if you want to fully automate you will need to write some infrastructure as code to create resources like an azure function or a database and after that the pipeline to deploy the code to those resources.

Advocates of local control and environmental groups failed to gather enough signatures to get oil and gas development restrictions near communities on the 2016 ballot. In 2018, voters will now have a chance to expand oil and gas setbacks.
Coloradans will now get a front row seat for one of the most contentious ballot issue battles in recent memory. On one side are environmentalists who believe the state should have more space between oil wells and homes. The other is an industry with seemingly limitless financial resources, seeking to protect the status quo.
"We're really looking to protect the health and safety of Coloradans from toxic benzene exposure, from explosions, from contamination of our water, from a highly dangerous industrial fracking industry," said Anne Lee Foster with the environmental group Colorado Rising.
Up until this point, it had been a difficult road for Colorado Rising. First, paid protesters harassed Colorado Rising signature gatherers and then boxes of signatures disappeared in a dispute with their canvasser. The proposal also faced opposition from Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper and both candidates for governor, Walker Stapleton and Jared Polis.
The initiative is supported by some local governments like the Boulder County Commissioners, local control groups like Broomfield Clear Air and Water and environmental groups like the Sierra Club.
Foster insisted the 2,500-foot setback is "not just an arbitrary number like the current setback is." Instead, it's a number "based on science," that comes from a 2012 University of Colorado study that found people living within a half mile (2,640 feet) of wells had a greater risk for health effects compared to those living further away.
This will be the first time that voters across the state get a chance to weigh in on a potential oil and gas regulation. A similar effort failed to gather enough signatures two years ago. And a fight by industry groups appears imminent.

Line of Duty Season 5: update, Cast, Plot, And Updates
April 28, 2019 by Amrit Chatterjee
Fans are still recovering from the fourth season of Line of Duty, and things are about to turn really interesting with the upcoming fifth season. The finale of Line of Duty Season 4 was jaw-dropping, and many things were revealed like the Balaclava Man's identity and Roz Huntley's ill deeds. However, there are new questions which now need to be clarified, and that's what increases the hype for the upcoming season to a great extent. BBC renewed its police procedural T.V. series last year and here is everything you need to know about the upcoming Line of Duty Season 5.
It was already revealed by BBC's Director-General, Tony Hall that along with Season 5 Line of Duty will get a sixth season as well so the franchise isn't going anywhere yet, and fans can continue to enjoy the show for a longer time. He also said that the series could extend beyond season 6 given that Jed writes more. Also, apart from Jed, the public's opinion will also decide the future of the show as their loyalty and love for the show will ensure its extension beyond Season 6 and more.
Line of Duty Season 5 Plot:
The official plot of the upcoming season is yet to be revealed; however, according to the latest reports, Season 5 will dive deep into the corruption web which was revealed in the finale of Season 4. Compston already confirmed that scripts for Season 5 are 'immense,' so it's safe to assume that an extraordinary season is heading our way. Mercurio also revealed that the upcoming season would be like a 'fresh territory,' which means we could see some new faces or new plot points as well.
Line of Duty Season 5 Cast:
The cast for the upcoming Line of Duty Season 5 includes:
Martin Compston as Steve Arnott
Vicky McClure as Kate Fleming
Adrian Dunbar as Ted Hastings
Maya Sondhi as Maneet Bindra
Craig Parkinson as Cottan
Thandie Newton as Roz Huntley and others
Line of Duty Season 5 update:
Production of Line of Duty Season 5 officially commenced on 29th August 2018, and according to series creator Mercurio, the fifth season is supposed to return in early 2019. But we are already three months deep into 2019, and there is no confirmed update available about the next season. Nevertheless, cast member Martin Compston suggested that the show could release in April 2019, and we hope that it is the right prediction.
Updated on March 24, 2019:
First Look at Line of Duty Season 5
We have an update regarding the First-Look at Line of Duty Season 5 and details on Season 6 of the show. We have added the First Look photo for Line of Duty Season 5 and also the sixth season is confirmed.
In an interview, series creator, Joe Mercurio said that they are shooting Line of Duty Season 5 as of now, and the sixth season has already been commissioned, and they are going to shoot that in the next couple of years.
At the London screening, Joe Mercurio was asked how long Line of Duty can go on? He said that it had a lifespan, and he didn't know. He added that they love making the show, but in the end, a lot depends on the viewers and how they respond to it.
He said that it is great to see people excited about the show, and talk about what is going to happen next and what they want to see next. He said that they recognize that the show's got a lifespan, and they will have to calibrate against what the audience wants.
For now it is good to know that Line of Duty Season 6 has already been commissioned. We will keep you posted as we have any more update on the show.
Updated on April 28, 2019:
Ted Hastings, who is played by Adrian Dunbar on the show has recently revealed a bit of information that has made the fans leap out of their seats anxiously. Fans are now suspicious that the superintendent is the corrupt police officer posing as villain H.
A number of clues have been thrown our way and Hastings could very well be the masked criminal who has been terrorising members of AC-12 on the show. This has rather huge implications.
If you take all of what we know into account, it can even be implies that Hastings worked with Corbett's father, and the undercover officer blamed him for major death that occurred. It seems this season of the show is wild, and we'll be constantly posed with many such mind-blowing aspects of the show.

Travel guru Samantha Brown says you should do 3 things to avoid flight delays.
Team Lazy
When Samantha Brown heads to the office, she can be anywhere from a beach on the New Jersey shore to the grand palaces of South Korea.
That's because Brown's "workplace" is wherever she happens to be producing the latest episode of her PBS series, "Samantha Brown's Places to Love." In effect, she vacations for a living. And that's been her career ever since she started hosting travel shows two decades ago — initially, for the Travel Channel, where she helmed such series as "Passport to Europe" and "Girl Meets Hawaii."
A Dallas native who grew up in New Hampshire, Brown, 52 years old, didn't plan on such an unlikely path. She started out wanting to make it as an actress — musical theater was a particular passion — but took other opportunities as they came her way. Traveling the world became the ultimate opportunity.
Today, Brown, who is based in New York City, can be on the road several months a year. But she put down her suitcase to chat with MarketWatch recently about her life and work and to share some advice about how to avoid travel pitfalls (it's the season of crowded airports and weather-related flight delays, after all). Here are excerpts from the conversation.
MarketWatch: How did you get the travel bug?
Brown: Surprisingly, it was about four years into my job with the Travel Channel. I got the job as a host not being a travel journalist in any sort of way, just being a newbie who really loved the experience. But it is a job working in front of a camera, so I was daunted by that. The travel bug really hit me when I was doing a series in Latin America. I had spent so much time in Europe, where I felt [it] was all about being in the past, with the castles and the museums and the monuments. And then, when you go to Latin America, they don't have all that pomp and circumstance that Europe has. So you spend more time just being in the moment, and that is when I just realized I love travel. I don't care about museums. I care about being with people in their everyday lives, and Latin America gave me that that chance.
Samantha Brown discusses how visiting Latin America gave her the travel bug.
MarketWatch: What are your top 3 travel trips, especially in terms of dealing with or even avoiding flight delays and cancellations?
Brown: The first thing you want to do is book the earliest flight you can, and that's a 6 a.m. or 7 a.m. flight. It is hard getting up at 3, 4 a.m., but it is absolutely worth it. That's the plane that [always] leaves. All these problems happen later in the day [with] more traffic, more delays.
If you can go direct — and I know for some people this just isn't possible — it is worth the price. Absolutely pay for a direct flight if you can, even if it's paying for a direct flight and maybe renting a car and driving an extra two hours.
The other thing I think is really important is you book directly with the airlines. I've never booked with a third-party site. You have a lot more credibility. You are higher in their list of valuable customers. And if something goes wrong, they are the people you call, and they will pick up the phone and they will be able to change your flight that has been canceled or delayed. If it's a third-party site, that is not going to happen, and it's really hard to find out who you do call.
Here's why Samantha Brown always encourages travelers to book directly with an airline.
Last piece of advice — and it's always really worked for me — I use Twitter to get in touch with [the airline's] customer service if my flight is canceled. That's the very first thing that I do. You can direct [message] every single airline on their Twitter feed. Send them your confirmation code, saying, "My flight's been canceled. Can I get on the next flight?" and they are able to book you. I do that as I'm getting in [the customer-service] line if I'm at the airport. While you're in that line, you're tweeting.
MarketWatch: More people than ever are probably going to be bringing carry-ons onto the plane instead of checking a suitcase these days, so what are some keys to packing light?
Brown: Well, first, I think it's to remember that you're not hosting the Oscars. You're just going on vacation.
You want to maximize tops — you can bring 10 tops, and they won't fill up a carry-on. Pants will. And when it comes to pants, you want to bring things that you can just wipe off with a sponge, right? Should mustard from your hot dog at the airport fall on your black pants, it's pretty easy to spot treat. I'll also bring clothing that I know just washes well in a sink, and I can dry overnight hung over the shower.
The way I change outfits, make them a little more fashionable, it's just with accessories. It's amazing what a scarf does for an outfit.
Shoes are your nemesis. Shoes take up way too much room. And no one really cares [what's on your feet]. A lot of people will argue with me on that. But if you're looking at my feet, I just don't care.
MarketWatch: What has been your biggest travel nightmare?
Brown: Oh, my gosh. Being stuck at the airport, basically this (past) summer. … A lot of it is just understanding that you're not going to get home when you want, and to make the best of it.
MarketWatch: What's your go-to airport food?
Brown: Eggs, toast and coffee.

MarketWatch: Best piece of financial advice you've ever been given?
Brown: Live below your means. I kind of learned through my parents. They never really taught me about finances, but I learned from them that just because you want something doesn't mean you get it. I then moved to New York City, where I waited on tables for eight years, and made $18,000 to $20,000 a year, and that's not a lot of money to live on. And so, when I finally did start to make money, I knew I never wanted to feel the way I did for the first eight years of being in New York City, and never having enough and always worrying about rent and what I was going to buy at the grocery store and that sort of thing. So I've always been eager to save, and I don't see a lot of huge benefits in spending. I like to see that money safe.
Her first years in New York shaped the way Samantha Brown views money and saving.
MarketWatch: What do you hate spending money on?
Brown: Things that I forgot to pack that I have and I love. And now I have to buy them. And not only do I have to buy them, I have to buy them at like four times the cost. So, for instance, if you're in Europe, where everything is phenomenally expensive, especially clothes, and you forgot like a rain jacket, and now I have to spend $220 on what is just a basic rain jacket. Argh! Or you're in Switzerland and now you're spending $10 for a toothbrush. I always forget my toothbrush. That's something about me that is just consistent in my 25 years of travel. I always forget my toothbrush.
MarketWatch: What's something you're willing to splurge on?
Brown: Handmade items. I never haggle with people. I never try to talk them down in price. I always appreciate the fact that they've done something with their hands, and that this is something unique. Sometimes I just want to give them more money.
MarketWatch: A favorite possession?
Brown: I have this beautiful Limoges porcelain figurine that I actually got at the factory where they make Limoges in France. It's this woman holding a basket of Valencia oranges. I'll never forget [how I got] that because I was having a really hard day. Things were not going well back at home. I was thousands upon thousands of miles away. A woman saw that I was struggling, and she said, "Here, have this." So, it was a gift. Whenever I look at that, I still think of the kindness that I was given.
MarketWatch: What's a job you'd take even if you didn't get paid?
Brown: I would love to help the elderly because I feel like they have such a wisdom to them that is never tapped, is never really appreciated. People who are older, and who have lived their lives, have so much great advice and wisdom to give. I would love to work with them just to help them. And then, of course, have them help me in return.
MarketWatch: When most people talk about retirement, they say they're going to travel more. In your case, you've already traveled the world. So is your perfect idea of retirement just staying at home?
Brown: It is having a garden. That's my idea of retirement. I would love to have a beautiful little garden that you have to tend to every day. [Or] take up hobbies that I could really commit to for longer than three days before I have to leave again. I would still travel, but there would be a sense of me just hunkering down and really enjoying being home.
Samantha Brown discusses her ideal retirement.
MarketWatch: Finally, a place that every American should visit?
Brown: Anywhere overseas where the culture is different, and the language is different. So that's not the U.K. It's so eye-opening going to a place where absolutely nothing is familiar. Nothing. Not even what they have for breakfast. It absolutely opens your mind and just enriches what you know and what you don't know. I love this amazing lightness of being human that happens because we're not holding on to what we know. What's familiar can actually be a burden. And when you're in places that give you none of that, all you can do is just be in awe and enjoy.

This week SPACE 519's own Lance Lawson shares his family recipe for New Mexican Style Stacked Enchiladas. La Chamba Cookware is a central part of the his process. Lance first discovered the pottery while visiting his parents in Santa Fe almost 20 years ago. He fell in love with the quality and stove to table ease of La Chamba. Since then it has become a central part of his process and recipe.
I grew up in Denver Colorado and my father is a native of New Mexico. So I have been a devotee of Mexican Food pretty much my entire life. Twenty years ago my parents retired to Santa Fe. As I began to visit there regularly I learned to really appreciate New Mexican Cuisine. It is different than what you find in Colorado or California. And a very distant cousin of Tex-Mex (should anyone ever really put sour cream in enchilada sauce?). In Santa Fe it is all about the chilie - red or green. Back in New Mexico my family returned to making enchiladas the way my dad had while growing up on a ranch outside Tucumcari New Mexico. It's all about the stack vs. the roll. I also loved the way a local institution "The Shed" cooked their enchiladas in the same oven-safe baking dishes in which they were served.
That leads me to La Chamba Pottery - which I also discovered in New Mexico at the Santa Fe School of Cooking. The Columbian pottery works beautifully from oven to table. You can even use it in the microwave or on the stove top. And their small skillets and casseroles are perfect for making individual stacks of enchiladas. These are the skillets we sell here at SPACE 519.
One final note before we get to the recipe. Some chefs will recoil at the notion of using canned enchilada sauce. But Hatch Brand Sauce is different. It's almost all Red Chilie grown in Hatch New Mexico - with no additional primary ingredients like tomatoes. There is something magical about the soil and climate in the Hatch Valley of New Mexico that grows the worlds best Chilies. And just as it is not Champagne unless it comes from the Champagne Region of France - Hatch Chilies must be grown in the Hatch Valley. Hatch Brand is a company based in the region and their sauce is the best. It is available at most Whole Foods and at grocery stores in the West and California, And now you can also buy it by the case from the manufacturer. Before said options were readily available I used to mule the sauce back from visits to my parents by the trunk full. It really is that good. I also like to add a few tablespoons of New Mexico Ground Red Chilie Powder to the canned sauce it to enhance the heat and mouth-feel.
Spray 2 La Chamba Skillets (or other oven proof baking dish) with non-stick cooking spray.
Wrap Tortillas in a damp paper towel.
Dice Onions and Shred Cheese and place aside.
Mix Hatch Sauce with Chilie Powder and bring to a low boil in a medium skillet. Turn off heat.
To assemble enchiladas place a hefty ladle of sauce in the bottom of a La Chamba dish. Place a corn tortilla into the heated sauce for a few seconds and then transfer it to the bottom of the dish. Cover liberally with cheese and onion and repeat the process making another layer. Top it off with another sauce soaked tortilla the cover layer with shredded cheese and a sprinkling of onion. Repeat process for second serving. Drizzle any extra sauce over the completed stacks. Spray two pieces of aluminium foil with non-stick cooking spray and tightly cover the skillets with the coated side down.
While the enchiladas are baking mix the olives, tomatoes and green chilie powder and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Remove the skillets from the oven and keep them covered while you prepare the eggs. While they are cooling fry an egg over easy for each stack . Top with the egg and surround with the tomato and olive mixture and serve.
* You can place foil back over the skillets to keep them warm after adding the egg - allowing you to fry others. But don't add the tomato and olive mixture until right before you are ready to serve.
We've begun an annual tradition of meeting our dear friend Kristi in her home state of South Carolina each summer to spend a few days exploring Charleston and taking in their food and shopping culture. Jim and I have been going to Charleston on and off for over a decade and each time we are there we find more interesting things happening in this quintessentially charming historic city.
The scale makes the city perfect for walking and exploring, Charleston is just big enough to have a lot to offer - but still remains small enough to radiate a quaint coolness. Our go to hotel is The Zero George (pictured left). Tucked just a few blocks off the main drag of King Street, the hotel is comprised of several historic buildings - two of which were relocated - all centered on a quiet tree-lined courtyard. The rooms are traditional, comfortable and contain all the modern amenities you look for during a weekend away. The rate includes a continental breakfast (think fresh baked biscuits and gourmet quiche not frozen waffles and cereal dispensers) which is just perfect when enjoyed with a cappuccino on one of the lovely outdoor spaces scattered throughout the property. It also includes nightly wine reception with gourmet cheese board hosted in the property's tiny bar. If you want to stay in the Zero George has a well rated restaurant that delivers delicious complex food made out of a closet sized open kitchen in the hotel lobby. Service throughout is top notch and friendly. Seriously this place is heaven.
During our last two trips we've dined at Husk - an early incarnation of the gourmet farm-to-table southern heritage food trend. Housed in a historic house it is very charming and always packed (reservations made well in advance are a must). After our last dinner there we felt they had kind of jumped the shark - but the award winning burger is truly top notch. So I would go back for lunch. Another spot F.I.G. has become a true institution in the city. They were doing farm to table long before it was a thing. Jim and I had a wonderful meal there on our first visit to the area in 2004 and it still remains on every "top list" for the city, and many national ones as well. And for good reason - they keep adapting and evolving to stay on their game.
This trip our two stand out meals were lunches at two places that also seem to be on everyone's list of go-to spots. One was Leon's Fine Poultry & Oyster Shop located in the very Brooklynesque area of Upper Upper King Street. Housed in a former auto repair shop it has a very cool and open vibe. The food has a Southern focus. The fried chicken sandwich was so good - crispy and a bit spicy - on a soft roll with house-made bread and butter pickles. The Salads were fresh and creative and Leon's makes their own ranch dressing (which is heaven). The hush puppies were light and crisp and oysters casino were melty with the oysters not overly cooked. The drink menu has the expected craft cocktail slant - but they also serve Frozen Rose Slushies. #hello #lunchperfection. We had a similarly terrific lunch on our way out of town at Butcher & Bee.This place has relocated from a tiny location on King Street to a large modern space on the outside edge of Downtown. The food is Mediterranean with a Southern Influence. It was hard to get my head around that concept until after I had experienced it. The Menu has a whole section of Mezze (Small Plates). The standout here for us was Whipped Feta with fermented honey and cracked pepper. It was so smooth and delicious with all the right contrasts in flavor and texture. They also had a wonderful chilled pea and avocado soup and a wide assortment of grilled a pickled fresh vegetables. The Pita are super fresh and toasted atop the burners on the gas range (you witness this happening in the open kitchen). The Lamb Pita with spiced yogurt was simply delicious - it sounds boring - but the sandwich was executed so well. And the house Roasted Beef sandwich with smoked onion jam and miso mayo was also a standout. Again all the flavors and textures worked so well together.
During this last stay we also discovered a terrific new place - The Dewberry Hotel.They have been getting a lot of press because their concept is so unique. The developer converted a 1960s era government mid-rise building into a Luxury Hotel. The vibe is very Mad Men Mid-century - which is a noted departure from all of the classic architecture and style you find almost everywhere else in town. We didn't stay there - but a friend who has reports that the rooms albeit modern are very comfortable with may small touches that make them very appealing. They are what we at SPACE 519 like to call "happy modern" vs. the expected cool starkness. Before our dinners each night we sampled both of the bars located on the first floor. The first was housed in Henrietta's the hotel's french Brasserie. The second we checked out was the lobby bar. Both were a lot of fun and provided top notch cocktails and service. Henrietta's for sure had a more old school vibe with the black and white checkered floor and Parisian cafe feel. The lobby bar is a super glamorous brass semi circle nestled amount the notable collection of new and old Mid-century furnishings in the lobby. The hotel does a great job of paying homage to it's 1960s heritage but it also feels very warm and today. It is for sure a must see on any trip.
The city is filled with several different areas for shopping. The majority of the city's stores are housed along King Street - the central boulevard bisecting the city. The middle area of King holds lots of local stores as well as huge national players like J Crew, Louis Vuitton and GUCCI. On Lower King you will find more locally based businesses including some great antique and home stores. There are also some really cool men's stores in this area. Way atop King Street is the more emerging area. It is where you will find Leon's. The whole area for sure has a very Brooklyn/Logan Square/Silver Lake feel throughout with lots of young families remodeling old houses and a focus on independent locally owned business. The majority of the shopping in this area is West of King on and around Cannon Street. This area is officially called Cannonborough Elliotborough - it is largely residential with shops scattered throughout. Another cool assortment of shops is located East of King in Cigar Factory. The majority of the shopping here is within Fritz Porter (pictured) a huge loft space that houses dozens of independent design themed booths/showareas curated by local merchants and designers. There was so much to look at here - with a lot of finds at many different price levels. This is for sure a must stop for anyone interested in interiors. All in all the main fun about the city is the ability to walk and explore - every area listed here is walk-able from one to another.
That concludes my report for now. But one of the great things about visiting Charleston is that there is so much to explore that you are always left wanting to check out a few new things next time around. The places left on my "to-do list" include Hall's Chop House, 167 Raw and Xiao Bao Biscuit. So go and explore and be sure to report back next time you're in the store.
While researching her ever more complicated skincare regimen, winery owner, April Gargiulo realized that almost all of her highly touted skincare products contained high levels of ineffective, toxic fillers. As she researched more and discovered the cumulative damage these chemicals have on our systems, April sought out toxin free alternatives—trying everything from cult beauty oils to coconut butter.
What she found was that many all-natural products ceded activity and results for a smell-good formula. Committed to creating the most active, luxurious serum possible, April began a 2 year-long research and formulation process. Drawing from her experience in fine winemaking, April, alongside natural skincare veterans set out to create a "hero" formulation that would address all of her skincare needs—everything from fine lines and wrinkles to acne to elasticity and general radiance. Much like the fine winemaking process, Vintner's Daughter begins by sourcing the world's finest raw ingredients and honors these ingredients through an exacting and time-honored formulation process. The result is Active Botanical Serum, a powerful, multi-correctional serum for face that has earned a cult status the world over.
Let's learn more about April and her product.
Q: Can you tell us something about yourself? What are the things that interest you?
A: I love design, especially modern French and Scandinavian design. I love music and shopping for records. The place I like to be most is with my husband and daughters near some form of water; ocean, lake, or river.
Q: How did Vintner's Daughter start?
A: Vintner's Daughter started because I was appalled at how cheap and toxic the beauty industry was. Even so-called luxury, cult creams were filled with non-active synthetic junk. I don't eat food filled with cheap fillers and chemicals or even clean my house with it, why would I put it on my face. It was this realization that led to the creation of Vintner's Daughter. I wanted a product that was 100% active, multi-corrective and made from the finest organic and wild-crafted ingredients in the world.
Q. How did winemaking influence the processes you follow?
A: It has been everything. At my family winery, Gargiulo Vineyards, we are solely focused on producing the finest wine sin the world. In order to do this, you must focus on the finest quality at every step. Short cuts are not tolerated. We go at the speed of quality. Vintner's Daughter shares that philosophy and passion to make one of the finest products in the world.
Q: Can you tell us more about your "Hero" product?
A: Active Botanical Serum was formulated to be my desert island product, the one item I would never leave home without because it does everything. It is highly multi-correctional, nourishing and balancing and delivers the optimal amounts of skin beautifying vitamins, minerals, essential oils and fatty acids. It is made from the same nutritive building blocks as your skin and profoundly effects skin's texture, clarity, tone and elasticity.
Q: Of the toxin-free beauty alternatives that you are using, which one stands out for you?
A: I love Agent Nateur deodorant and In Fiore lip balm.
Q: What do you think are the characteristics that make Vintner's Daughter unique from other natural beauty products?
A: Most beauty is sold or marketed based on a single active ingredient or result. Active Botanical Serum is not about any single ingredient or result. Quite the contrary, it is made from 22 of world' most nutrient dense botanicals and delivers serious multi-correctional results. Everyone's skin can benefit from it. Acne sufferers, hormonal skin, rosacea, dry, imbalanced skin. All see profound results. It's a gamechanger product.
Q: As a mother and a business owner at the same time, days can get stressful. How do you manage to maintain balance?
A: Ha!! That is always the struggle. I never evaluate balance over the course of one day because it's an impossible feat, but over the course of a week I work hard to find balance. It's my number one priority, so I make it happen.
Q: How would you describe your beauty routine?
A: Simple, luxurious and seriously effective.
Q: What would you recommend for your customers to harness the maximum effects of your active botanical serum?
A: Keep it simple. Along with paying attention to nutrition, movement, spirituality, sleep, I recommend a simple but effective routine. Cleanse, tone (this is important and I prefer a gentle acid type toner) and then apply Active Botanical Serum using Push / Press. Begin with it only at night and then work it into your daytime routine. As with any active product, sunscreen is important.
Q: Are there other beauty and wellness tips that you can share for other busy women?
A: Beauty is truly a light from within. Let it shine.
With the busy holiday season behind us, Jim and I decided to opt for a break in the sun and a holiday out West in Southern California. It seems there has been so much buzz of late about what is going on in Los Angeles. We have read and heard of many new stores and fresh dining spots taking hold in the city. (I mean how many copies of Everything I Want to Eat: SQIRL and The New California Cooking and Gjelina: Cooking from Venice California did we sell last year? A lot.) And we even lost one of our favorite employees when she headed to grad school at UCLA and traded in Logan Square for Silver Lake. So in anticipation of a new project launching later in 2017 we wanted to head West for inspiration and see for ourselves what was going on.
This week we'll look at experiences exploring the Casual California Cafe food scene. In the coming weeks look for additional posts on stores and new products we found.
Stop one on the trip - literally - was Gjelina (pictured above) tucked onto an inconspicuous corner on Abbot Kinney in Venice. Within a hour of touchdown we were on the list. Reservations are available online beginning 30 days out - but the pleasant hostess was able to make a late walk-in lunch at the communal table work. Even with all the hype - Gjelina did not disappoint. Although the decor seemed a bit Anthropolgie 2013 the food was solidly on point. Jim began with the most refreshing cocktail composed of Honey, Lemon and Pale Ale. The Swiss Chard Salad was super fresh and creatively composed with Squash and Pumpkin Seeds and the lightly charred Gjencallie Pizza was sublime. And I'm still dreaming of the Smokey Pork Meatballs served with a well grilled slice of their signature bread. The trip was off to a delicious start. Right next door is their take away spot that looked fantastic. The sidewalk outside the restaurant was littered with people eating slices of the most delicious looking pizza.
The next morning we followed it up with a visit to their sister bakery concept Gjusta a few miles down the road near Venice Beach. This was the first of three visits there - including a frantic final one on the way to LAX where I left with a loaf of Seeded Wheat Sourdough Bread tucked into my carry-on. (I sometimes have issues with food). The spot is in an old warehouse and is unmarked (of course). About Gjusta Bon Apetit quipped "It's a juice bar-bakery-deli-pizzeria-coffee shop-smokehouse—you get the idea. Is there anything this ambitious, do-everything spot doesn't do well?" Based on my experience - not really. It was all exceptional - from the friendly guys behind the counter to the perfectly yolky Baked Eggs (pictured above) swimming in a spicy red sauce. Jim loved the Biscuit Breakfast Sandwich and we both adored the spot on East Coast Style Bagels served toasted and served with a generous schmear of housemade cream cheese. Our Cafe Con Leches were punctuated with a frothy heart and we too were in love. After you order you have to scout seating at the marble lunch counter or on the back patio and your food is brought to you - but we never ran into any issues. We didn't make it past breakfast this round - leaving lunches and dinners for a future trip.
Our neighbor friends also recommended another fresh breakfast - lunch - bakery spot located in Venice. It's called Superba Food + Bread and it was also terrific. Here it is sit down service and the bright and happy room is just what you would expect - stylish with a modern easy California vibe. From the Everything Croissant (their take on the seeded Bagel and Cream Cheese Staple) to the Sweet Corn Cookies the baked good were creative and delicious. The Marbled Eggs (pictured) satisfied - spiced and baked topped with torn bread and avocado. Jim's Breakfast Burrito was uber fresh and very California with the addition of Quinoa and Kale. Superba is such a sunny happy spot it makes you wish you lived in the neighborhood. Ironically it is not named for the quality of it's offerings, but instead after a street nearby. A second location is also open in El Segundo.
Next up a visit to SQIRL in the much hyped hipster mecca of Silver Lake. There we also found a lot of creativity in flavor combinations. Even though we got there just a bit after they opened at 8 the line was already well out the door. Here you wait in line, place your order and scout for seating. The customer to seat ratio is not proportionate - so this is somewhat stressful. We ended up sitting on tiny stools along a miniature counter lining the restaurant's wall. While I get this is their concept it is somewhat obnoxious considering breakfast for three was almost $100 once toast, coffee and tips factored in. But perhaps I am showing my age. The food was solid. Their signature Brioche Toast with house made Jam was comforting. Our breakfast sandwiches were satisfying, But my friend had the most interesting dish - an Asian influenced long cooked Chicken and Rice Porridge with a Poached Egg on top. I think if I had it to do over I would stick to the Toast Menu and Coffee for breakfast and head back to check out the lunch menu.
It might be a stretch to categorize my final food highlight as Cafe Cuisine. But it was certainly very California and we did eat it outside. After we were turned away from the very trendy Farmshop at The Brentwood Country Mart (the very impressed with himself host told me that the list was so long that I needn't bother putting my name down) we ventured to the darling shopping mecca's Central Courtyard and had the BEST Burgers and Fries from Barney's Gourmet Hamburgers. Here you order at the window - making your own combination from the extensive list of options - and find a seat at a picnic table. We scored a great one by the fire pit. And my Cheeseburger was perfection - with all my California inspired touches (Monterrey Jack, Avocado, and Grilled Fresh Jalapenos). One taste and my FOMO with Farmshop evaporated. And honestly I think I had maybe had enough high touch baked goods for any one trip anyway.
That's all for now - check back next week for Installment Two with our take on the LA Retail Scene.

The Annual "Rollettes Experience" Goes Virtual
If you have a spinal cord injury, chances are you've heard of Chelsie Hill. Paralyzed almost 10 years ago in a drunk driving accident as a passenger, she became T12 paraplegic as a result. Shortly afterwards, at 18 years old, Chelsie went on to star in the Sundance channel's groundbreaking docuseries Push Girls, helping connect her to other prominent women in the spinal cord injury community. Chelsie however is now more well-known for her #1 passion – wheelchair dance.
The Beginning of the Rollettes
A lifelong dancer, Chelsie was devastated after her injury. She wanted to dance again but didn't think she would enjoy it sitting down. After doing some research and seeing it was indeed possible, she tried it; giving it her own pop 'n lock spin. Thrilled she could still enjoy dance, Chelsie formed a dance team exclusively for wheelchair-users, calling it the Rollettes. "I started the Rollettes in 2012 shortly after my injury because I just really wanted to dance again and have friends that understood what I was going through."
Since she formed the team, the Rollettes have become internationally renowned. They've been featured on The Ellen Show, The Today Show and the Hallmark Channel. The Rollettes are also viral on social media often thanks to their "Be Boundless" campaign, and their wheelchair-dance videos on TikTok. Over the years, Chelsie's close-knit team has bonded in a unique way that only other wheelchair-users understand.
Creating the Annual "Rollettes Experience"
Knowing how amazing this bond is, Chelsie created the "Rollettes Experience" to bring the sense of community and once-in-a-lifetime dance experience to other female wheelchair-users across the globe. "When the Rollettes Experience first started we did two dance camps a year," says Chelsie. "It was small and there were a few girls that I connected with over social media that would all come together and that's really how the dance team started. Now the Rollettes Experience is once a year here in LA."
In non-pandemic times, the Rollettes Experience is a 4-day in-person event full of dance classes, workshops, time to hang out and get to know women from all over the world. "The best part about our in-person event is that everyone stays in the same hotel and it's like one massive 4-day slumber party," adds Chelsie. This year, however, the Rollette's Experience had to be altered due to COVID-19, with them ultimately deciding to make the event 100% virtual.
COVID and Going Virtual
Chelsie says, "It was really up in the air for a while. We kept planning our in-person event as we normally do and kept our ears glued to the news to see what our mayor would allow. Our event is usually in July or August so starting in May this year we really knew we'd have to probably make some changes. And as mid-May came, we just moved everything virtually. We had no idea how we were going to do it, but we knew it was the safest option."
When LA shut back down again in July, Chelsie and her team were relieved they didn't try to make it happen. "It just would not have been what was best for our attendees and we knew that." The Rollettes decided to set the date for the virtual Rollettes Experience on Oct. 10 & Oct. 11 and despite a few snags, they had over 300 attendees. The best part – they've received amazing feedback from attendees.
"The biggest thing the planning team all kept in mind was how do we create that powerful feeling of connectedness and empowerment that we normally have at our in-person events through a computer? We wanted to find creative ways to help everyone connect. One of the highlights of our in-person event is our big PJ party. That changed a lot this year, but everything else we really tried to keep the same. Our attendees connected so much through the chat and everyone still got that experience of connection and empowerment."
"The speakers and panels worked out really well. We brought them in from separate virtual rooms into our main room with all of the attendees and that seemed to work out really well," describes Chelsie. The dance classes I think were just different since normally you have the energy of everyone in one room and the choreographer can make corrections more easily. Dancing is all about being together, but I think we achieved that."
It may have been harder for the team to plan the virtual Rollettes Experience, but they say it was worth it. "Getting to RE20 Virtual Live was a big mess. There were some really long days. It's been a struggle logistically, financially and emotionally for all the attendees that were looking forward to seeing each other. But if there's anything I've learned, it's that things will come out of left field. We created an amazing event in just 3 months that really changed lives and we will keep doing it as long as the finances make sense."
Feedback from Attendees
As for feedback from attendees, it has been overly-positive. "We have known that Rollettes Experience is a really special place for women in wheelchairs to connect and feel normal but especially during 2020, when people are feeling more isolated than ever, we didn't really expect our attendees to have such a strong reaction and feeling to the event. Some attendees said after hearing the speakers they felt like they could dream again" says Chelsie.
"Other attendees danced after getting injured for the first time at our event. And other attendees, who had never been able to connect with other wheelchair-users before, just took a leap of faith in attending and made many new friends. The internet can be a dark place, but for us at Rollettes Corp, it's been a beautiful tool to connect women with disabilities that may never get the opportunity otherwise. It's allowed us to connect hundreds of women together from all over the world."

I have always liked The Chemical Brothers. But after 2005's Push the Button, I was skeptical. I understood what they wanted to do but they missed the mark. We Are the Night is working to change that. It seems to continue from where Come With Us (2002) left off instead.
Guests are abundant on the Brother's previous albums and We Are the Nights is no exception. Fatlip (formerly of the Pharcyde), Klaxons, Midlake, Willy Mason and Ali Love (featured on the first single Do It Again) all contribute to the album. However, it is the tracks that The Chemical Brothers are alone doing their own thing where the songs really take off.
There are definite dance floor killers on the album and towards the end the more introspective tripped out space epics prevail (think Beth Orton on Where Do I Begin from Dig Your Own Hole).


A visible light communication channel study is conducted for high speed roadways under clear night sky conditions in which street light poles transmit to receivers on top of moving vehicles. A detailed analysis of the communication channel is undertaken. Exact and approximate analytical DC channel responses are obtained and analyzed, and the channel capacity and RMS time delay spreads are derived. Numerical studies verify that visible light communications are feasible for high speed roadways.

Supergirl 2×15 Review: Exodus
by Jamie Sugah	| Posted on March 7, 2017
Wow. Supergirl continues to be extremely relevant to what's going on politically in America. "Exodus" eerily echoes the current immigration crisis as Cadmus starts abducting aliens from the stolen registry.
"Exodus" opens with an alien family that gets pulled over by a Cadmus agent masquerading as a police officer. A van pulls up alongside them and they handcuff the entire family — both parents and their teenage daughter — and toss them in the back. We learn that this is the twentieth such abduction since Cadmus stole the registry from the DEO, and watching this scene strongly reminded me of the ICE raids last month. This episode mirrors current events so closely it's almost hard to believe that this entire storyline wasn't conceived within the past few weeks, and it serves to highlight something important — most of the people affected by the immigration policy are normal people just trying to live their lives, and they're being treated abysmally. Later, when Alex learns that Jeremiah talked Lillian into sending them back into space rather than killing them, Alex reminds him that some of them don't have homes to go back to — that they survived famine, war, and genocide, and that's why they were on Earth in the first place. It's the same with refugees; people are going through the same thing right now. (Here is a link for anyone who wants to help.)
Kara wants to warn the rest of the aliens by writing an article for Catco, but Snapper won't let her publish it because it doesn't cite enough sources. In another storyline that echoes what's going on, Snapper is worried about the "fake news" phenomenon. Kara offers to let him have an exclusive interview with her source — Supergirl — and he agrees, but he soon gets frustrated when she won't reveal where she got her information. He tells Kara that journalists can't cherry-pick the information; it's their responsibility to report everything so that the public can make informed opinions. When Kara laments to Lena that she can't get her story published, Lena suggests she make a blog post and get it all over social media, but Kara struggles with the decision. She knows it's the right thing to do, but she could also potentially lose her job. In the end, she decides to publish it.
While Kara wrestles with that, Lena does some digging of her own. Unfortunately, it seems that her assistant is a Cadmus plant and warns Lillian that Lena has found their location. Lillian asks that Lena get taken care of, but not in any permanent way. Supergirl rescues Lena from the two men who break into her office, and Lena tells her what she's uncovered. Kara rushes off to save the day.
Meanwhile, Alex is conflicted about her father. She worries about what will happen to Jeremiah when the DEO finds him, and she worries that she is the only one who still thinks there is good in him. J'onn is concerned that Alex will compromise the mission because of her father, so he disguises himself as Jeremiah and goes to Alex's apartment to test her resolve; in his mind, she fails, and he suspends her. Though Alex argues her case to Kara, she agrees with J'onn's decision — though not with his methods — and promises that she won't let anything happen to Jeremiah. Maggie, on the other hand, agrees with Alex and helps her stop another abduction so that they can copy the data from the vehicle's GPS and trace it back to Cadmus.
So, hey, turns out Jeremiah is a good guy again. Confronted with an Alex who is completely willing to blow up the building, he turns on Lillian and tries to hack into the launching starship that is forcibly deporting the aliens. I think we all knew that he wasn't beyond hope, but he does wind up being re-captured, so we'll probably have to go through this again in a few weeks, or even next season.
Alex was pretty badass in "Exodus". From using a pool cue as a weapon when Cadmus raids the bar to planting bombs all over Cadmus's secret hideout to flying an alien starship, Chyler Leigh was amazing in this episode. I can also appreciate how many times we saw what a good team Alex and Maggie are. There was a lot of Maggie, which is good, and there was a great scene with Kara that had me on the edge of my seat.
In the end, Snapper does fire Kara. He has a few perfectly valid reasons, but his main one is journalistic integrity. Not knowing that Kara is Supergirl (and proving he's kind of a terrible journalist, seriously what is wrong with everyone in this city), he thinks she just got lucky with her story and is concerned that her willingness to publish something without verifying it could cause potential problems. There's a pretty solid reference to a certain politician when Snapper lists the consequences of running with a story that doesn't have the proper sources. It's frustrating to watch, because we know the truth, but you can't fault Snapper's decision.
What I can fault is that last scene with Kara and Mon-El. Kara talks all about how journalism was her calling, but I don't buy it. I don't know if I ever bought it. Her sudden decision to be a reporter seemed totally out of the blue, and the show spent absolutely no time focusing on that aspect of her life. She talked about how much she loved being a reporter but we only saw her work on a few stories, and each time she just used Supergirl as a source. She didn't seem to ever do any actual reporting. Not to mention, she tells Mon-El that maybe just being Supergirl and having him is enough, which is ridiculous, because she broke up with James to focus on herself.
Other Thoughts:
James was in this episode, but if you blinked you probably missed him.
Lyra is still around, and she and Winn are still adorable. I was worried for a while that something was going to happen to her, but thankfully nothing did. It did help up the emotional connection to the missing aliens knowing that she was among them. I am surprised that Winn hasn't tried to learn self-defense or anything, after working with Guardian.
I know Maggie is Alex's girlfriend, but how is she always in the DEO building? That's a secret government organization right there. Does she have clearance?
What did you all think of "Exodus"?

Yes. Maggie has clearance to be in the DEO. So does James I guess. And can we just mention for a quick moment (A) Maggie got to use "Dibs" (the gun) and (B) "Get out of here, Brian." (Remember Brian? From S2E6 when Alex went to get the girl, SG went to save an alien. Brian. The Alien.

Randy Kruger was born in Minnesota in 1946, but has lived in Wyoming since 1949 when his parents moved to Grass Creek.
His interest in horses and cattle started at an early age as he watched the LU Ranch cowboys trailing cattle through the area. He started his cowboy career the summer he turned 14 years old when he was employed by the LU Ranch.
He learned to build and repair fences, dock lambs, irrigate, shoe horses, handle a rope, and pack a string of horses. For the next 3 summers, Randy packed sheep camps in and out of the mountains for the LU Sheep Company.
Randy married Sharen Larsen in 1967. After graduating from the University of Wyoming in 1968 with a degree in range management, Randy started a lifelong ranching career at Larsen Ranch Company near Meeteetse.
Randy and Sharen have two daughters that learned to be productive by helping their family around the ranch. Besides breaking colts and tending to the cattle, Randy spent a lot of time on water developments and range improvements. One of the most successful projects he worked on was a multi-year brush burning project, which significantly increased forage available for grazing and has helped reduce winter feed costs. During the winter of 2010-2011, Randy wrote and published his memoir, The Packerboy.

Flyers' Wade Allison Injury Troubles Strike Once Again
December 23, 2021 by Bobby Bader
Just when things were finally moving in the right direction for Philadelphia Flyers forward Wade Allison, another major setback stopped his progress in its tracks. He initially sustained a high ankle sprain in the Flyers' Rookie Game that kept him out the first 25 games of the season. Following the news of the ankle injury, Lehigh Valley Phantoms head coach Ian Laperriere praised Allison for his gritty talent and hard work on and off the ice.

"I'm sure he's going to take it hard. No matter what, if it's a week or two weeks or a month or two months, you put all that work in in the summer, he came in, he looked great all week, he looked great [Saturday]," Laperriere said following the Flyers' Rookie Game in September. "He played the way he should be playing in a rookie game. He only knows one way to play. I really feel bad for him. Unfortunately, it's part of the game, injuries are part of the game, especially when you play that style of hockey. I don't know what the injury is and hopefully, it's going to be a quick one."
Unfortunately, all of the progress that was made over the last couple of months did not last long as he sustained another injury that will keep him out for a significant period of time. After returning from the ankle injury, he was sent to the American Hockey League (AHL) to get his feet back under him with the Phantoms. In three games played with the team, he put a strong showing on the ice by providing a positive spark that the lineup was missing. He recorded one assist in those three games, but was more impactful than the stat sheets showed.
His character on and off the ice is something that the organization has not seen in a very long time. He radiates energy that impacts everyone around him and it was clear in the past three games with the Phantoms. In the final game of the three-game stand, he awkwardly collided with a Hartford Wolf Pack player along the team's bench and grabbed his elbow immediately. He left the ice surface shortly after and did not return to the game.

While the extent of the injury is not known just yet, he is believed to miss a significant period of time yet again, which is very unfortunate for the young forward considering all the injury troubles the Flyers have faced this season. It was only going to be a matter of time before he made his way back into the NHL lineup. He is fully expected to be part of the future for the Flyers, whether that be this season or in the coming years.
"He's being seen by a specialist here and we'll have more news on him as it becomes available," Flyers general manager Chuck Fletcher said Monday.
Battling Back From Injury Again
This is now his third major injury in the last two years that has kept him out for a period of time. Fortunately, it was not another ankle injury, which he has already dealt with twice over the last couple of seasons. Each and every time, no matter the severity of the injury, he works as hard as possible to get back on the ice.

"To know all of his previous injuries and stuff, I know what he's feeling, I know it sucks. Taking him off the ice, just trying to keep it positive, letting him know this isn't the end obviously. He's a great player, he's going to come back from it, he always has. He's a big-time guy and he's positive about it, so it's good to see," said Tanner Laczynski, who was drafted alongside Allison in the 2016 NHL Draft.

The support he has received from his teammates is what keeps him going and pushing forward to keep coming back. Hopefully, he is able to come back quicker than expected so that he is able to join the Flyers lineup. The team could use his grittiness and positive energy in the lineup, even if he is in the bottom-six forward group. The Flyers have utilized talent from the Phantoms for most of the season with all the injuries sustained.
While Allison recovers from yet another injury, the Flyers will look to continue finding replacements to fill spots in the lineup. Time in and time out, the Flyers have proved why having a strong farm system is vital to a team's success.

Q: How are models in Django unittests synced to database? In Django, you can create models only for testing by creating them in your tests module:
from django.db import models
from django.test import TestCase

class TestModel(models.Model):
    # attributes

class MyTest(TestCase):
    def test_something(self):
        # do something with TestModel

Now what I would like to know, how the syncdb command knows, that this model also has to be synced to database.
I searched through Django's code, but I could not find any obvious code doing this. All code related to syncdb only works with the models modules inside the apps, but never looks into the tests module.

Edit: Just to clear things up a little bit: The target of my question is, how syncdb comes to create the normal models from the app's models module and those from tests module if a test is running instead of only syncing those from models module.
The target is not to create instances for testing.

A: Django creates a new blank database on the fly to run your tests, so if you have models just for testing, they don't need to be added to your main database by syncdb.
This is discussed in the docs here:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/testing/overview/#the-test-database

A: Use fixtures. Django will create test_database and put all your models to this database and adds testing data(described in fixtures).
See here.
Also, in your tests.py add something like this
from django.test import TestCase
from django.test.client import Client

class MyTest(TestCase):
    fixtures=["fixture.yaml","fixture.json"]

    def setUp(self):
        celf.c = Client()

    def test_something(self):
        resp = self.client.get("/")
        self.assertContains(resp,"Something from fixtures.")

Something from your fixture is string that must be printed on page by "/" view function.
This is the way I use to test my views and models.
Also, you can dump your data from existing development db, use manage.py dumpdata.
Good luck.


A couple of weeks ago I said that I'd completed the Preface, after a huge amount (literally years) of trying to do so.
Sadly, it appears I spoke too soon. For not the first time in my writing career, Scott Meyers has sagely reminded me that I have a tragic tendency to conflate my introductory materials. So I've now printed Scott's essential gnome, along with a few other motivational items, and stuck it on the shelf directly above my right-hand screen.
I'm now reworking the much-trumpted Preface into an introduction, and am writing a new, small, simple, on-point Preface.

Отборочный турнир зоны УЕФА к чемпионату мира по футболу 2002 года прошёл с участием 51 европейской сборной. Без учёта автоматически квалифицировавшейся Франции как чемпиона мира Европа получила 13 гарантированных мест на чемпионате мира, 14-я путёвка должна была разыгрываться в стыковом матче с одной из команд из зоны Азии.

50 команд были разделены на 9 групп (пять групп по 6 команд, четыре группы по 5 команд). Сборные играли друг против друга по принципу «дома и в гостях»: победители групп получали автоматически путёвки. Восемь команд, занявших вторые места, играли стыковые матчи друг против друга, а девятая команда (из группы 2) выходила в стыковые матчи против одной из команд Азии. Квалификационный этап длился со 2 сентября 2000 по 14 ноября 2001 года.

Жеребьёвка
В декабре 1999 года состоялась жеребьёвка квалификационного этапа на основе очков, набранных в квалификации к чемпионату мира 1998 года и чемпионату Европы 2000 года. В связи с тем, что сборные Бельгии и Нидерландов отборочный турнир к Евро-2000 как его хозяева не проходили, учитывались только их очки в отборе к чемпионату мира 1998 года. Впервые в отборе к чемпионату мира участвовала Андорра. Жирным выделены сборные, прошедшие в финальный этап чемпионата мира; курсивом — участники стыковых матчей.

Группа 1

Сборная Словении получила путёвку по сумме двух матчей (3-2).
