Pensar en una boda en la playa nos lleva a imaginar varios escenarios como el lobby de un hotel con vista al mar, el muelle de alguna playa, un restaurante de la zona, en cualquiera de estos lugares el vestuario y calzado de los novios no dista mucho del usado en otros lugares, tal vez con estilos más casuales y frescos, pero si hablamos de una boda en la playa, es decir, literalmente en la arena sintiendo las pequeñas olas llegar hasta nuestros pies, entonces el vestido de novia cambia por completo.
Además de lucir glamurosa en tu día es crucial que te sientas cómoda y segura con tu atuendo, especialmente el ajuste del vestido y los zapatos, un zapato inapropiado te hará cansarte, caminar mal o incluso tropezar, así que en esta ocasión nos enfocaremos al calzado en una boda de playa.
La mejor elección es sin duda el zapato tipo sandalia o bailarinas, también conocidas como zapatillas de ballet, ambos son zapatos de piso, es decir que no tienen tacón, livianos y muy cómodos, las bailarinas son frescas, se ajustan al pie impidiendo la entrada de arena, lo cual sería muy molesto y los listones que se ajustan al tobillo los hacen realmente femeninos, de igual forma ¿quién no ha usado sandalias en la playa? Son cómodas, frescas y prácticas, las hay con infinidad de diseños que les dan un toque extra de elegancia, puedes quitártelas y volverlas a poner de forma rápida.
Para el novio igualmente se manejan sandalias para hombre y mocasines, ambos aportan la formalidad necesaria para la ocasión, son sencillos y agradables. La elección de este tipo de calzado varía según la vestimenta de los novios y en este caso qué tan factible es caminar
It has recently emerged that banks and insurance companies could be liable to pay over 4bn to customers who were fooled into paying for Payment Protection Insurance on a loan, mortgage or credit. A previous estimate of up to 1.2bn only covered customers who will attempt to reclaim the payments they have made but this new figure takes into consideration the extra amount of customers who the banks will be forced to give refunds to.
A huge number of overpriced policies were sold to customers who had no hope of claiming if they needed to. Policies were sold to pensioners, the self-employed and those with long term medical conditions who, by definition, were ineligible for cover.
An approximation by the FSA shows that insurance brokers may have to pay up to 450m with the rest being paid by a variety of PPI suppliers such as banks. The average amount repayable to those who purchased policies is 2000 which is a significant amount and has sparked large consumer interest.
A number of high street banks have already been fined as the FSA attempts to make examples of them as well as forcing them to offer refunds to all of the eligible customers. High street insurance broker ‘The Swinton Group’ have been fined 770,000 for serious failings and were made to offer a full refund to over 350,000 customers while Alliance & Leicester have been fined 7m.
Financial giants are strongly opposing the plans to regulate and control the future sale of policies. The FSA aims to stop companies putting pressure on customers to buy ineffective policies. Adam Phillips of the Financial Services Consumer Panel, says “for too long banks have regarded PPI as an easy product to sell and make money without considering whether it is really right for the customer”

As questões relacionadas com a moda são muito subjectivas. Aquilo que eu considero bonito pode sempre ser considerado horrendo para outra pessoa. Todos os anos temos oportunidade de saber o que é estar considerado “na moda” e o que já caiu em desuso, pelo menos durante alguns tempos, até porque os estilos de roupa e penteados muitas vezes voltam a ser considerados “modernos” quando já foram usados pelas nossas avós há décadas atrás. Peguei neste assunto por achar que se há duas coisas que ficam inquestionavelmente bem nas mulheres são os vestidos e nos homens uns bons fatos. As mulheres, independentemente do seu tipo de corpo e estatura, conseguem encontrar sempre o vestido que lhes cai bem, mesmo que para isso demorem uma eternidade: desde a vestidos de noite, a vestidos de gala, a vestidos de noiva e vestidos mais informais para usar no dia-a-dia (tanto para ir a um café, como para ir trabalhar); já o homem, mesmo que no seu trabalho não se proporcione, o fato vem sempre a calhar e por isso também é a peça que fica bem para qualquer situação da sua vida. Que sorte tem o homem! Nós, mulheres, que podemos perder horas a fio a escolher “aquele” vestido, vemos que o homem só tem de analisar a cor que quer escolher e experimentar que número lhe assenta melhor (o que muitas vezes já sabem). Digo isto porque independentemente do ano que analisarmos, da década que virmos, o “fato” (independentemente do género) sempre foi “a peça” masculina colocada no lugar cimeiro. Já o vestido foi sofrendo bastantes alterações, variando de época para época (dos mais recatados aos mais decotados, dos com cintura mais subida aos de cintura descaída, dos mais compridos aos mais curtos!). Acho que, apesar de saber que escolher um fato também pode dar trabalho a um senhor, é sempre mais fácil do que a escolha de uma senhora e acho que é por isso que em 90% dos casos (a estatística é feita por mim e por isso não está cem por cento correcta) as noivas têm de experimentar os seus vestidos meses antes (não só pela variedade existente mas também pela forma de como se ajusta no corpo e por outros milhões de factores) enquanto que, maioritariamente, o noivo deixa sempre para a última hora! E não é que fica sempre bem, mesmo assim? Na minha opinião fica, mas acho que é porque independentemente do tipo de homem que falemos (do seu dia-a-dia e do tipo de roupa que usa geralmente) dentro de um fato, e para a generalidade das mulheres, fica especialmente atraente…
Scrum development or project management is a staged framework to be used as part of agile project management, which can increase efficiency and productivity in a wide range of industries and projects. It has become a popular way of working and many of us have or are considering adopting it into our own project management. But are you really ready for scrum methodologies?
The majority of us have seen our bosses, friends or colleagues jump readily on to the scrum bandwagon, attracted by its simplicity without fully understanding whether or not they are ready to adopt it.
They are tempted by short work cycles which produce functional software and the suggested ability to control and produce cycles of work simply by having daily meetings, and who wouldn’t be?
So, the Scrum master is in place, all those involved are fully paid up members of the Scrum fan club and everyone understands how it will work and the project begins with everyone feeling positive that all will go smoothly.
But needless to say, this is not always the case. What many of those adopting Scrum don’t always see it that the software engineering needs to be as ready for Scrum as the humans involved. Otherwise after a few really successful sprints using Scrum, you will often hit a wall, where your productivity dips meaning software release dates are missed and customers get angry. This is when you decided that actually Scrum isn’t that great after all.
But really Scrum methodology isn’t at fault, but the fact that technical practices like Continuous Integration have not been considered alongside it. Without these Scrum facilitates faster working, but may lead to a dip in quality. So the actual problem here is that Scrum alone doesn’t address the engineering of software and so if you don’t use it combined with technical methods the project is likely to run into difficulty.
So the fact of the matter is, however well you adopt Scrum, it is irrelevant if the engineering of your software is not up to fulfilling the projects needs.

Tal vez lo elija hasta el último momento, tal vez compre el más barato y sencillo, sin importar qué tanto te disguste la idea, pues en el afán de querer que todo salga perfecto desearás ser quien organice cada detalle por insignificante que éste sea, pero también las novias deben dejar que el novio haga su parte y se sienta capaz de tomar decisiones, por el contrario si es que no quiso o pudo participar en las demás elecciones, escoger su propio traje le hará integrarse a todo el asunto de la boda.
Ya sea él sólo o en pareja, la idea es no imponerte y hacerlo sentirse igualmente importante, tenle paciencia y ayúdalo a tomar la mejor elección para que no haya sorpresas al final pueden sentarse juntos a platicar qué tipo de colores o texturas serían las adecuadas, ya sea para hacer juego con el vestido de novia o lo que mejor le siente.
Debe ser un traje cómodo y elegante, recuerden que también es su gran día a diferencia del traje de novia que no debe ser visto hasta la boda, en el caso de él puede probárselo y pedir tu opinión.
La elección del traje de novio dependerá de ciertos factores, desde el gusto personal, el estilo del novio, la comodidad, el clima, el lugar de la boda por ejemplo si es en la playa o en una hacienda, la hora del evento, no es lo mismo un traje para la noche que para el día y sobre todo se busca que haga una buena combinación con el vestido de la novia.
Existen novios que prefieren dejarle todas las decisiones a la mujer, si este es el caso, puedes persuadirlo mostrándole que se sentirá mejor si se lo prueba él mismo, aún así es bueno saber que los hombres son más prácticos y en base a esto basaremos las decisiones.
A pesar de ser un accesorio tan pequeño, las argollas de matrimonio son la representación de la unión en pareja, la imagen de la eterna promesa de amor y como tal, su elección debe ser minuciosa.
No sólo serán usadas el día de la boda, hablamos de dos elementos que la pareja llevaran puestos el resto de su vida, por lo que deben pensar en unas argollas que sean cómodas, bonitas y duraderas y conjunten con el peinado que llevará la novia.
El material: Las hay en oro amarillo y oro blanco, el blanco suele ser un poco más caro aunque no varía mucho, también encontramos argollas hechas de platino, material mucho más costoso sin embargo con mayor durabilidad. De igual manera existen dos tipos de acabados, el cepillado que les da una apariencia opaca y el pulido que brinda una imagen al metal más clásica.
El diseño: Existen en el mercado una gran variedad de diseños mientras que anteriormente se acostumbraba que sólo el anillo de compromiso tuviera diamante y la argolla fuera lisa, hoy en día es válido personalizar las argollas ya sea con grabados, monturas, diamantes, las hay anchas o angostas, de oro combinado, en fin, puedes elegir aquel que le dé armonía a tu anillo de compromiso.
El costo: Lo ideal es plantearse un límite en el costo de las argollas y comenzar a elegir en base a éste, tomando en cuenta los puntos anteriores como el acabado, mientras más laborioso más caro, así como el tipo de metal que se elija y la tienda donde lo compren.
Seleccionar sus argollas de acuerdo a su estilo de vida además del gusto personal es muy importante, no será lo mismo una argolla en manos de un hombre que trabaja en una construcción al de uno que está en oficina, pero sobre todo disfruten del significado que traen a su nueva vida.
Innovative and unlike any other, smart cars are still demanding our attention and proving that despite being small they can keep up with the bigger brands in terms of what they offer us the consumer.
The Innovative Smart cars compact and distinguished appearance is still turning heads and generating interest. Since its arrival on the city car scene it has demonstrated the need for small eco vehicles, influencing the manufacture of Toyota’s IQ and the Fiat 500.
Smarts value from the very start has been to get the best out of motoring while making minimal impact on the environment. (And of course, having fun while doing it.) It is no doubt then that the Smart journey has ended up down this road!
Smarts brand mission from the beginning has been to get the best out of motoring while making minimal impact on the environment. (And of course, having fun while doing it.) It was only a matter of time until their dream became a reality.
Like your favourite everyday appliances, phones, laptops, the Smart Electric Drive will need a hearty charge of 8 hours, so probably over night ideally, it will then drive for up to 84 miles before it needs hooking up to the mains again. So where’s the plug ? Tucked away under the old petrol cap!
So Smart can tick the good to the environment check list box, now to attend to their other value, having fun. With a full complement of Mercedes-Benz safety we can rest assure that any fun will be safe! The electric motor is nippy – achieving 0-30 in an impressive 5.8 seconds, however the engine is limited to a top speed of 62 mph, slightly disappointing but probably perfect for a city car not intended to do a lot of motor way driving. Its appearance how ever is standard Smart- quirky, playful, attractive. It drives stably but has also been described as reactive!
Since 2007 100 Smart electric drives have been trialed, if all goes well you can look to buy from 2012.

You might not remember the days when the only choice of coffee was between instant or filter, but if you do then all the coffees on choice these days might be baffling. So here is my rundown of the main ones so anyone who usually sticks to white with one can try something new next time they’re in the coffee shop.
One type which is commonly drank is the latte, which takes it’s name from the Italian word for milk, and is two parts milk one part coffee. It makes a sweet and comforting drink and is usually served in a long glass or cup and is delicious with biscotti.
Another quite milky offering is the mocha, one of the most popular coffees around. Mochas consist of a similar ratio between coffee and milk as a latte, but with the added addition of chocolate to create a really sweet treat.
Completely different to the mocha and latte is the espresso, which is short, dark and bitter. An espresso is served in a short measure and is created from beans which have been roasted until dark brown.
Somewhere between the espresso and the latte lies the Macchiato, with literally translates as marked has this name as it is essentially an espresso marked or stained with a hint of milk, making it a less intense coffee hit than with an espresso.
Another variation on the espresso is the Americano, which first came to prominence during World War 2, as this was what the American soldiers drank. An Americano is basically an espresso combined with hot water, in order to give the strength of a regular coffee but with a different taste.
And finally, the most popular on my list, is cappuccino. Cappuccinos are made by combining equal measures of hot coffee and hot milk, finishing with frothed milk and a delicious sprinkling of chocolate powder.

Radiology is the medical procedure of using radiation for a variety of ‘imaging’ purposes. This includes X-rays, Radiant dye, ultrasound and MRIs. These procedures create an image of the inner configuration of an object, in this case, the human body with the use of radiant energy.
In the medical field the science of radiology is a specialization, it takes great understanding and skill to operate radiology equipment and analyse the results. A radiologist is able to interpret results to determine the location, type and seriousness of a vast quantity of medical issues.
This practice is used to give precise understanding of any medical complaints even if a doctor has examined a patient. The methods can identify issues ranging from broken bones to tumours and other medial abnormalities.
The Majority of medical facilities make use of a radiologist for on site support in consulting on a diagnosis and facilities which do not have these skills at their disposal are required to send images for outside analysis and wait on the results.
A radiologist has a duty to obtain the finest possible images and review them expertly as radiology plays a key role in diagnosing a patient. A blunder at this stage could lead to misdiagnosis of a patients conditions or overlooking something serious.
Diagnosis of traumatic cases usually involves a radiologist at some stage so a patient is often in pain or suffering from illness when they are examined. As a result a radiologist must have excellent interpersonal skills and an outstanding bedside manner.
When a radiologist explains their procedures to a patient the often need to keep them calm and comfort them as they may be in distress and the environment may seem daunting to them. A radiologist also needs to consider the medical history of a patient and identify any abnormality that could affect the analysis of the results.
The use of radiant energy in medical procedures is often limited due to the risks involved with prolonged exposure to radiation. A radiologist needs to be able to create consistently accurate results as to avoid unnecessary repeating of procedures.

London is one of the biggest capitals in the world and touring it in one day might seem ridiculous but with an early start and a good pair of legs it can be done. Obviously you can’t see everything London has to offer in one day but to be honest you cant do that in a year either, but if you want to catch all the major cultural sights there is a way.
First on you list should be Westminster Abbey, if you can get there for 9.30 you will beat the rush and be able to walk round in peace. The Abbey is a shrine of the nation and most of the countries Kings and Queens have been crowned there and many buried there as well.
Since the 11th century, the Houses of Parliament have been home to the country’s government and are a truly remarkable landmark that has seen Britain through centuries of colonising, war and prosperity. The building is watched over by ‘Big Ben’, the worlds most famous timepiece, why not set your watch to it.
Continuing along the political route you can walk down the road to Downing Street, unfortunately you can no longer walk down it but if you’re lucky you may see someone important getting past the hoards of policemen and security officials. Other than that its hardly palatial but at least you can say you were there.
If you continue north you will reach the hub of London, Trafalgar Square. Home to Nelson’s tower it is the scene to many a demonstration. Once plagued by pigeons, each year thousands of party goers descend on this square to ring in the New Year’s Eve.
From the square you can enter the National Gallery, home to the masterpieces of Da Vinci, Van Gogh and Rembrandt to name a few. Panoramic galleries span eight centuries of some of the world’s most famous art and devoting anything less than an hour to this would be a crime.
Just north of Trafalgar square is Covent Garden. England’s most historic market it was designed by Inigo Jones in 1633 and home to a variety of stalls and talented street performers.
By now you may be getting a bit peckish so why not step into Covent Garden’s very own ‘Porters English Restaurant’ where you can enjoy real traditional English pub food. Owned and run by the Earl of Bradford it’s an ideal stop off for your busy day.
A quick ride on the tube, which is a must in its self, will get you to Charing Cross Station, from here you can take a short stroll to Buckingham Palace. This place doesn’t really need any explanation and depending on the time of year you may be able to go inside but beware that this will involve queuing and will take a lot of time out of your day. If you get the timing right you may be able to catch the changing of the guards but don’t plan your day around it as there is plenty more to see.
One final tube trip will take you to the Tower of London, over 900 years it has been a palace, a royal mint and most notoriously a prison. Many famous Englishmen have lost their heads there and it’s the national home to blood and gore. An hour long guided tour by one of the famous Beefeaters is well worth the while and will bring the tower to life.
As your legs begin to weaken, head over to ‘The Salisbury’, a popular Art Nouveau Pub in the heart of the theatre district. You can enjoy a wide range of drinks and some distinctly home cooked pies without breaking the bank.
The best way to spend a night in London would be to take in one of the many shows on offer, you could head for a big West-End musical or to a traditional Shakespeare show at the Globe. You wont be disappointed at either and it would be a great way to relax and take the weight of your feet.

Emergency locksmith services are one of those things that most people rarely think about, yet when you need one, you need a good one fast. There are many reasons when a person might need a locksmith in an emergency, for home, business, or car.
Getting locked out of a home or small business can happen at any time. It can be all too easy to step outside the door, forgetting to unlock it. In this situation, you have some choices: you can break a window, and climb through, like a thief, leaving yourself in need of emergency window repair; or, you can call a locksmith.
The same is true of losing your car keys, which can easily happen after a night of fun out on the town. In this case, a professional locksmith can come to you, 24 hours a day, letting you back into your car without damaging the locks, scratching the windows with hangers, or breaking anything, as you might do trying to jimmy open the door on your own.
There are also more serious times when you might find yourself needing an emergency locksmith service in a hurry. For example, if your home is broken into, if your purse (or partners purse) is lost, with the keys and identification inside, or if you get into a serious disagreement with someone to whom you have previously given a key. In these instances, you should immediately call an experienced, licensed locksmith, and have your locks rekeyed. While you are at it, ask the locksmith to key the entire house to a single key; this will make life easier in the future, using the same key to enter the front or back door, and even the garage, perhaps keying it the same as your cottage, for added convenience.
A surprising 30% of Liberal Democrat voters admitted t owning a sex toy, over 10% more than voters of the Labour and Tory parties according to a recent poll matching sexual preferences with political ones. The Lib-Dems also turned out to be the most sexually experienced with the lowest average age of losing virginity and some respondents admitting to their first sexual experience being as young as 13 or 14.
The kinky Lib-Dems also admitted to having the highest rate of sexual experimentation when claiming to be heterosexual, a huge contrast to the conservatives and it was labour that was most likely to have sex on a first date.
However if you want to get down to business it was the Labour women that would be screaming your name, 40% of female Labour voters said they always have an orgasm during sex and 52% of Brown’s followers said they watch Porn.
It seems the Conservatives are still angling after the Thatcher years with a 27% preference to ‘woman-on-top’ sex whilst labour voters were split three ways (cough) with an equal preference for ‘missionary’, ‘woman-on-top’ and ‘doggy style’.
Possibly an unsurprising statistic showed that 65% of Liberal Democrat voting women watched Sex in the City which may be where they get all the ideas from! However the Tories had the largest percentage of men who had paid for sex with Labour and the Lib-Dems close behind.
The results came from the ‘Stella Sex Survey’ conducted exclusively for Stella by YouGov in January 2010 and were taken from 1834 British respondents aged 18+ via an online survey.
