Pick your team number 12 from jaspyscasebrakes.com. Just my camera here a little bit. All right, big thanks to the handful of you who bought teams straight up. But this ended up being pretty much a random number block break. But thanks to the people who got their teams straight up. So there's all the number block, random number block teams right here. Here are the results. I think the video, I think the video said it was for pick your team 11, it's not. It's for pick your team 12. All right, now let's pop this case open. See what we got in here. I wasn't able to save it. Five, 10, 15, 20, all the boxes there. Let's do it. Good luck everybody. Oh, one little disclaimer.

This is the story of the broadcast redemption. I must admit, I didn't think much of Megan Conway when I first laid eyes on her. Everyone thought it was her who brought the DIT student to the broadcast. Did you or did you not bring a DIT student in today's broadcast? I swear it wasn't me. Guilty! I made a sense, I made a sense. So what did you do? I didn't do anything. They think I brought a DIT student in. I didn't. Do you need an L? Yeah, it's a 24 hour broadcast. I need a quick, like... Well, I got a spoon. Let's do it. I knew from the start she was the innocent one and that she needed a way out. Do you want to go for a walk? Hard up, maybe, see what I mean. It took a long time and a whole yogurt spoon, but she finally proved herself and made it. Welcome!


okay guys just a quick video here this is what i'm building today i've been on it about 20 minutes it's an old bed frame out of uh what do you call it a day bed or whatever and i can't film it all because the neighbor behind me idiots got his music up or loud and stuff he just turned it off but he can turn it on at any time and he usually does if he knows i'm out here trying to do something he doesn't on purpose but so yeah i'm just building a little trailer it's not going to be meant for hauling heavy heavy stuff because that's real thing gauge steel on them frames but me and monkey was kind of joking but halfway serious about me taking this on my on my camp out this month driving it down to the river laying my bedding out on there because eventually see these will come out all these springs will come out of here those springs and all this will come out and i'll either put a two before down or if i got the extra money i'll put or yeah if i get the extra money i'll put two before down through there and make it real strong if not i'll just get a a piece of plywood and lay down there on it so i can film some of it for you um i gotta weld these up and then i gotta flip it over i gotta put bracing on it and a ton and then we'll have the bottom of these here i'll bring it along with me on some of it and just speed you up through but that's an idea there so yeah that's pretty cool tires ain't that great they're dry cracked they're both flat i know they don't look like they are flat and uh oops i gotta resetter that now but uh i just got some clamps holding that so i can get it welded um but yeah they'll be fine for what i'm going to use it for those are balanced wheels and tires see the wheel weights they got wheel weights on them that's because they were for a pitching machine baseball pitching machine that's what those were for that's why they're like a they were like a gray they're kind of faded now almost a white but this guy's got a wagon down here i'd like to have i'm gonna see if he wants to sell it see if i can zoom in on it for you that red one there he's got another one right beside it a black one i'd like to have that red one paint it yellow and green to match our tractors but that's what i'm doing right now so like so i'll bring it on for some of it i don't want to bore you too much and i'll just speed you up through it and that could be what we take i can put lights on there too and you know i don't need the lights i don't need to license it i just gotta get one of those orange slow moving vehicle signs and orange triangle and put on the back of it um but i also have lights in there that i took off the boat trailer they're still good i just didn't like them so maybe i'll put them on there i don't know we'll see so let me get you on a stand we'll do some welding here and see if we can get a trailer built here in about an hour or so you get the idea i got to go down the front side of each one then i'm going to flip it over so i mean i had to had to resort to this old thing so these welds are going to be nasty well nastier than with the wire feet i ran out of wires so all right you see what i'm doing so i'm going to finish these up then we'll flip it over and i'm going to put a crossbar from there over to here i'm not sure if i want to do one in front one in back probably then one about the center and then one up front towards the top where the tongue is going to go it's almost done just gotta put some air in the tires of course i gotta do the flame the frame those corner pieces will come off when sticking down there but uh yeah yeah once i get the the floor done that's what i'm trying to say once i get the floor done uh and get it all bolted in there it'll straighten that thing up real nice let's get some air in the tires okay guys i don't know why she's nervous because she pulls the boat trailer yeah the paddle on the left nothing the paddle on the left push the paddle on the left down i'll start it let's get on there and try it now i don't want to haul some wood now i'm gonna go haul some wood will you help me later get my tools yeah thank you all right let's go haul some wood guys sound like you liked it i can hear you back here it's fun go to the river yeah you want to take it to the river mama yeah yeah he tells she's having fun the way she says yeah instead of just saying yeah she's like yeah all right guys so there's my what have i been working on this about two and a half three hours yeah just throw it together with junk we had laying around pretty cool that's that trailer i started on before but then i was like i got an idea for that bed frame so so there we go all right guys so say bye mom want to go for a ride yeah a little ride somewhere i gotta take her for a ride so that's all right that's all right mom we'll see you guys the next one shabery the middle edge i'm gone for now remember it's not done yet we still gotta put a floor in it i'll probably put fenders and lights on it but that'd be good enough to take on my camping excursion huh mom yeah all right guys we'll see you in the next one bye bye and take care


In mathematics, a countable set is a set with the same cardinality number of elements as some subset of a set of natural numbers. A countable set is either a finite set or a countably infinite set. Whether finite or infinite, the elements of a countable set can always be counted one at a time and, although the counting may never finish, every element of the set is associated with a unique natural number. Some authors use countable set to mean countably infinite alone. 1. To avoid this ambiguity, the term that most countable may be used when finite sets are included and countably infinite, enumerable 2 or denumerable 3 otherwise. George Cantor introduced the term countable set, contrasting sets that are countable with those that are uncountable i.e., non-denumerable or non-denumerable 4. Today, countable sets formed the foundation of a branch of mathematics called discrete mathematics.


Hi, everybody, Joe for Jasper's casewrakes.com coming at you with that team number block, Milwaukee, OKC, Washington, Portland, Utah, and Indiana. And this unlocks that first off the line break if you're looking for that. I think everybody by now knows how this number block process works. This group definitely does. Thank you. There are the numbers right over here. Let's roll it, randomize it, four to four, heart eight. One, two, three, four, and five, six, seven, and eighth in final time. After eight, we've got Gretchen and Dan Aken. The break itself will be coming up in a separate video. Four to four, eight the hard way for the numbers. One, two, three, four, five, six, six, seven, and eighth in final time. After eight, we got five down to one. All right, Gretchen, you have five, Ken with seven and two, Gretchen with nine, eight, and four, Ken with three, John with six, Gretchen with zero, and Ken with one. Let's sort this numerically, and we'll see you for that break in the next video, Jasper's casewrakes.com.


Hi, my name is David Revois and in this video I will show you a time-lapse of a drawing I made. It's four of my characters from my webcomic Pepper and Carrot. You can recognize probably. I'm not sure to pronunciate their name very well. On the left Coriander, Pepper, Shishimi and the last one, Seifron. So this time-lapse video will be mostly about Seifron, the character of the right. This one maybe I will show you here. Because the workflow is very repetitive and if I show you all the time-lapse it will be boring. So we will see only one character and the other will be very fast. Just I will jump in the video. So here is Krita 2.9.11 and the main customization I have about the preferences in this version of Krita is an option to get the tool option. It's a docker usually and I get it as a button here. And if you want to activate it, just go to setting, configure Krita. In general, you move to the tab tools and here you can get the tool option location to be in the toolbar and not as a docker. So in the toolbar you press OK. Maybe we will need a little restart but after that you will get your tool option here and if you switch the tool you will get all the options always on one click in the toolbar. And I'm using a stabilizer and a preset with it. And my sitting for the stabilizer, so here in the tool option docker. The stabilizer I use is a 46.8 and it's a good setting for my screen and tablet size. And also I uncheck the scale distance. So here is the first step of the video. It's about sketching. And as you can see, I'm on the canvas zoomed at 50% and I'm using a very thin brush preset. And I'm starting to build some structure to get a volume of my character. So it doesn't look like a character yet. It's just like a mannequin and I'm trying to find a good angle to make some guide for the position of the eyes for the middle of the face and the nose. And slowly I'm adding details and a bit more landmarks. So the goal of the sketch step is really to just get an idea of the pose of the character or the facial expression and to place a bit of landmark. I'm not really detailing everything. I just try to let a lot of work for the inking pass because if I just do a sketch too detailed, I just get boring when I do the line art. So I need when I do the line art to have something to draw. And that's why the sketch is, as you can see, I keep a zoom out. Oh yeah, quick transformation to transform because the character was a bit unbalanced. And the sketch is ready to just get the big volume at the right place.  So I'm just adding more landmark to some smaller details, but it's already the overall is already done. And I think this little sketch took like 10 or 15 minutes. I'm saving the file. So I'm just switching the eraser and the brush presets a lot. And I will not detail the leg because it was just a fun practice exercise. I just want to draw a bit the characters. And I think it's done. So for the other characters, it's a bit the same workflow. I'm just proposing you now a little acceleration about it. So you can see how the process was, but there is nothing special. Just erasing, transforming and moving things around. I just try to keep everything on a separate layer. Just to move the character easily, but that's how I do the sketch part. The second chapter of this time lapse is about line art. And to do it, I just resize the canvas to be a bit bigger. So I can still keep the 50% size on the viewport and orbit more like 67. But not going till 100% on the zoom. So I resize a bit up the sketch to have a bigger canvas. And then I turn the sketch to a bright blue color. You can find it on a previous video, how to turn the sketch on a bright blue color. And then I just take my preset and I start to draw. So for me inking is not really to just do pretty lines and to redo a drawing. It's a part of drawing itself. So that's why my sketch has not a lot of details. And I try to draw at the inking part. And not just redo a pretty line over an existing line. So here you can see that I detail a bit more everything. I try to make different line weight. So thin line and thicker line. If you want a simple rules, you have the lines outside the character. The silhouette, the main shapes can be a bit thicker. The light material like air, like thin tissue or fabrics. This one can be a little thinner because it's not heavy. And if you have something in metal or something in a solid object, it can be a bit thicker. You can also make thicker line on the shadow part and thinner line on the part where there is some light.  That makes sense. Just not a random size variation. But to really think about a system. And this really helps to make a more pleasing result for the eyes. And something more easy to read. So for example, the main shape of the clothes is a more thick line. And the little stroke for the details of the sculpture are really really really really thinner. So if I do the main shape of a clothes, I will do some very thick line. So here I'm even doing a preset on the fly to save a larger version of this brush. And you can find this result brush on the video. Nothing exceptional. But I tried to do the main shape first and then add some little details. Some little stroke that tells about the inner volume. Like the sewing or like the little border. So that's all. It's not very complicated but it's a game because sometimes you have a part in the light but it's also a part of the silhouette. So it's hard to know to do a choice to tell okay this line will be thinner and because it's on the light but it's also a part of the silhouette of the character. So if I want my character to be easy to read, I will need to make it thicker. So there is always some choice to do and that's why I'm switching the brush and the eraser a lot to make a line a bit thicker a bit thinner and to keep drawing at the same time I'm doing all this choice. I will repeat this process on the four characters and because now it's pretty straightforward. I think I spent like three hours on inking all these characters. I will just accelerate now the video a lot. Maybe it will lost a bit of readability. I think I'm already at eight time of the normal video speedup. And I will probably boost it to 20 times or something like this. Anyway thanks for watching this video. I hope you learned something and I hope you will be a bit more confident if you want to do some drawing with Krita. There is a lot of good tools on this software and that's the first time I'm trying to comment a time-lapse with a microphone. So don't hesitate to comment and tell me if it was okay or if it was very hard to understand and I would try to correct myself to make a better video in the future. Have fun with painting and see you next time. I still have a video about the brush setting to do for you. Bye bye.


Welcome once more to Issues and Answers. Today we are looking at the National Conservation Authority, the NCA, and the NCA emanating out of Act 16 of 1999, and it has been enforced since April 30th, 1999. You know that the NCA sort of replaced what was called the Parks and Beaches Commission. With us today in studio are Jacinta Lee, who is the general manager of the NCA, and with her is Mr. Edwin, Mr. James Edwin, who is the chairman of the NCA.  Thank you. Thank you. Well, maybe first of all, the NCA, Senutians would probably know the NCA as probably the authority that tends to beaches and other stuff like that of historical and national importance. Tell us a bit more about the main functions of the NCA. As you said, the NCA identifies, manages, and conserves our natural assets, and particularly our beaches and coastal areas, and that's predominantly what we do. Okay. So I'm sure that you have a lot of functions on a day-to-day basis to ensure that you really ensure that you have all beaches and pristine conditioners and all the other aspects that you take care of. Right. There are relatively large staff, about 98, and most of them are the field staff who maintain the beaches and the facilities. And so every day, well, every day of the week, we have, we call them conservation assistants who clean the beaches just to make sure there's no debris, there's no litter on the beaches. So basically components, we know that you would have administration, operations, and there's also commercial. Commercial, right. You have a commercial, what you call the vending department, and we have nearly 400 vendors across the island. So it's a whole lot. Apart from that, we maintain 34 sites. Okay. So there's a lot of things happening behind the scenes at the NCA. Well, since we have a lot to talk about on the program, so Mr. Edwin, tell us a bit about your experience as chairman coming in and having seen the mandate of the NCA. Well, yes. Since being appointed chairman of the board of management of the NCA, we as a board have undertaken a number of initiatives to, actually with the end purpose of trying to, what I would say, improve on the delivery of our services. For instance, like staffing, advocating for additional resources for the NCA, and planning ahead as to where we want to take the CDNCA progress in the future. So that we've been working on as a board, and to a limited success, but we continue to advocate on behalf of the NCA every day. Okay. Initially we're going to focus a lot on the beaches, its maintenance, the facilities, and the licensing of the vendors. So looking at the beaches on a day-to-day basis, what is the routine like for persons who are actually going to ensure that the beaches are kept attractive, it's going to be safe, and also the marine aspect as well, because I think you're also concerned about the actual marine aspect to ensure that there's no hazards in the water. So we have our staff, and as I said, they work on the beaches, and it's a half a day from 8 to 12, and they clean up, and they do a very good job. We have our contractors who are responsible for collecting the waste, and to taking that waste to the dump site. We also have on some of our beaches, we have our facilities. So at Pigeon Island, you'll notice we have a comfort station, and we have a number of what people call huts, but they're booths. At VG, we have the same thing, and we have our comfort station attendants who are there to make sure that the places kept clean, and that people feel comfortable when they visit the facility. So we try to ensure the place looks as good as possible so that people will enjoy the environment. I'm sure that, having said that, there will be a number of challenges, because in the sole aspect of you do a daily cleanup, but for the use of the public, and you cannot always manage after hours, they say there's a half day, so I know it would be like litter bins and stuff like that. I know you would also have difficulty in persons who use the beach to recreate. Not just in the water, but come to a whole activity, a lot of social events are held there. How difficult has it been for you to manage it? It's been difficult, very difficult. Because I just don't understand why people feel that they should come to the beach and just drop the litter, just drop the litter and expect other people to clean up. So we have our cleaners. People should know that they should take care of the environment. We provided bins. In the past, we've had bins on the beaches. But you know what used to happen, Ryan? People used to drop their dead animals in the bins, because it's wide. So you find dogs, you find cats in the bins, and so you could imagine what happens when our cleaners go. You have all kinds of, you know, the smell, the thing is bloated. And all of that is just not fair to them. And so they had to remove all of the bins from the beaches. We kept some. But what we've started doing, and we have on some of the beaches now, to have special bins with just a small opening so no large animals can be dropped in there. In fact, we worked with some schools, and they came up with the design of the bins, of the enclosures. And so we have that. I think that has been working well, and we're going to roll out on to all of our beaches. But it's really sad. It's really sad. If I may add, it's not only the issue of dead animals, especially on the Pigeon Island area in the Grosjele, Rodney Bay.  Rather than keep it at their homes for when the designated garbage collection, we had people actually driving to the beach and dumping the garbage. It was really posing an unsafe environment and an unsightly environment for beach users. So I mean, it's sad that we had to remove the bins. But we had to consider our workers' health as well. So it's difficult balancing the two, you may appreciate. I could only conclude that these people are using the beaches themselves, because if you're actually using the beaches, I don't see why you're using the sun there. So they expect somebody to get rid of it for them. Like I tell them, you dump it there, maybe we should find a way so that when you come back the next day, it's there waiting for you. But it's not fair to the other users. Because that's what I wanted to find out. If there's any way that you can monitor and actually see people that are sort of in this criminal behavior and what are some of the penalties. Right. But I think probably it's a lot of education. I don't know whether we've failed because there's been so much education on keeping your environment clean. But it still happens. You have all of these cleanups. It still happens. But what I want to add to is that it's not just domestic waste.  You would see the toilets, the toilet bowls.  We've even found microwaves, something like that on the beaches. And it's just not right. Well, I certainly don't think that's a case of you feeling as far as education is concerned. I just mind boggling. But we take our first break on our program. We'll be back with issues and answers. I'm innovative. Sure. I'm competitive. I'm productive. I am creative. I constantly improve what I do and how I do it. I am output oriented. I never stop learning. I give off my best always. The National Competitiveness and Productivity Council embracing excellence. Thanks for staying with us on issues and answers. Today we're looking at matters pertaining to the National Conservation Authority. So we've really got our work cut out with the beaches and the daily challenges. But, sorry, let me just add something else. Fires on the beaches, that's another troubling aspect. But people, they light fires, not just bonfires, where they bring in pallets and lights up, and so you find at the end of the day you have nails and you have all kinds of charred remains on the beaches and people could get hurt in that way. Some people also light fires in the tree trunks to cook. And you know what happens, the tree is affected, particularly in Sandy Beach in Viewfort. A lot of that has been done. Up north, bonfires, and you want to implore people that they should not light fires on the beaches. And you know what they do as well? They would light the fires and in order to extinguish, they would just throw sand over the coals, over whatever it is. And you find people walking or you have children just playing in the sand and they could get burnt. You know, with this kind of behavior. So how difficult is this for you? I think I mentioned it earlier, to actually police this in terms of knowing peak times on the beaches to get some of your staff around the wardens and to ensure that when they see these practices that they intervene and advise persons not to engage in these practices. Right. If one of our staff, in fact, she does that, goes around just to check, because you find people are supposed to get the permission to, for any organized activity, they need the permission of the NCA. And when they do get that permission, we tell them no lighting of fires. Right. So there's a whole list of things, no use of bottles, breakable bottles on the beach, glass bottles on the beach. So the number of things we tell them. But some people, they just go ahead and have the activity without letting us know. But apart from our staff going around to check, there are people who call to say, did you give permission for this person or these people to have the activities? And then we're able to contact them. So I'll give just an example. Somebody called to say that they notice some, you know, remnants of some fire and a tent at Viji Beach. And it was a Sunday, my staff went. Although there was nobody there, she was able to track down who was responsible. All right. And the person, we contacted the person, the person came and cleaned up. They actually did a good job cleaning up. I think some people are saying that they just don't know the process. They don't know they're supposed to ask for permission to use the beaches for organized events. They just don't know. So I hope with what's happening now, with that kind of discussion we're having that people get to know that they need to get the permission. So what's the actual process if you need and to what extent of events, the magnitude of the event that they would need to come to you and what's the process? Right. If it's just a simple, you know, you have a family just going to the beach and people go, that's okay. But anything organized. So you have people with the birthday parties. They want to have a party from 10 in the night until two in the morning, you know. You have mass events, all of that. You need the permission. And it's very simple. On our website, you could call in, you could come in, email, and we provide you with the form. So there must be a form. You must fill in that form for any organized event. No, it's important that NEMO is involved. If it's more than 200 people who would be attending that event, NEMO must be involved. The police, the fire service, the echo. If there's any music, all of environmental health, if you're going to have any food. So there's a whole range of agencies that need to be involved. And particularly security as well. The life saving. So any activity, any activity that's near the water, people must provide the lifeguards. There is a life saving society. And they inform us when people apply to have lifeguards at the event. So they must have lifeguards. Yeah. You see, matters pertaining to the beach you could never exhausted. I want to go into another aspect of the vendors and the licensing, but seems like Mr. Kudai has a question. Yes, I just wanted to add, when it comes to the challenges that we face in maintaining a pristine environment on the beach for our users. We have the issue of people walking their animals, particularly dogs, and not picking up after them. And also horseback riding, that is a serious, serious problem. It is dangerous to, physically could cause physical injury. And also it's a health hazard to beach users. Some time ago, I remember in 2010, there was a commission to look at regulating horseback riding on the beach. I mean, there was a document, I knew it was submitted to the ministry, but that is a document we need to revisit and to actually regulate animals, how you bring your animals and what you're allowed to do as far as the beaches are concerned. There are some people who are mindful and would pick up after their animals, but some people would just leave it and you know what it is, like when all of this gets into the water, people step on the kind of diseases that you can get from animal dump on the beach. I'd just like to add one thing to those of the horses. Sometimes if I had people take the horses into the water and the horses defecate in the water. I mean, that's just nasty, you know? And I think people need to be, you know, just be aware of these things that you cannot do that. Yeah, okay. I would have liked to have gone into licensing, but just to finish off on the beaches and the very important aspect that we had discussed and you brought it up as well, the aspect of lifeguards, because I'm sure persons would feel much more comfortable going into the water, knowing that their lifeguards on most of the beaches, if not all on St. Lucia, how well have you been able to develop an association with the life-saving association in terms of getting a wide presence of lifeguards in St. Lucia beaches? Oh, when they organize activities, we, that's one of the things that we say, you must have lifeguards on the beaches. It would be good for there to be lifeguards. Towers. You know, lifeguards, towers, and to have the presence of lifeguards all day long on all of our popular beaches. But then at this time, it's just not possible, given our limited resources. But in most of them, well, all of the beaches where there are hotels, they are lifeguards. Okay, yeah. I want to get the opportunity to go into, just before our next break, to look at the whole aspect of defending, because you know that NC has a very big part in what happens to, particularly with the parks, as well, and maybe some of the sites around the island where visitors normally go to. Tell us how, a vendor, someone who wants to vent at a particular location that you are in charge of, how do they get themselves organized and to be in good standing to apply the trade at locations which you are responsible for? Mr. Chairman? Yeah, okay. Basically, I mean, we have a prescribed form that whoever is interested should come into the NCA. In applying, you would need to produce references, you'll need to produce certificates of character that you get from the police. It depends on your type of vending that you're applying for. Fees apply to certain categories. And then we do our background checks as well. We ask people from the community that you are originating from something about your character because sometimes your certificate of character from the police may not speak about probably how you behave in the community. It will probably only speak to you not having a criminal record, but character is very important to us. So we ask questions and we take into consideration the nature of what you're applying to undertake, whether that area is saturated, for instance, with particular people like beach chair vendors. We try to maintain an atmosphere on the beach where it's not only vending that takes place. So in applying, we also consider whether there is a need for the business that you are applying to conduct. Let me just add, in terms of, you have the water sports. People apply for boat tours, for jet skis. And we do not give the license unless they have all the proper documents from Slasper. So they must show the insurance, they must apply for hire, they must show that the vessels have been inspected, all of that, we need all of these documents before we can say yes, we will give you the license. So anyone going on a boat tour would know, okay, this boat is licensed, this boat has a necessary insurance. Insurance, signage. The person who is conducting that boat has the experience and has the skills to do that. Because we work very, very closely with Slasper in that regard. We do have to take our second break on our program, but we'll be right back on issues and answers. Any area that you want. Oi, you ever realize you step on my toe? Well do something about it. That's why I boosted in diamond. Holla! If somebody tried to cross you, and a matting start to take you, no need for all your violins cause the police there to help you. If you have trouble starting this session, all right, no need for aggression. We the one of violins in the play. Control your temper. Respect the trouble escalators, you know better. Control your temper, let no trouble escalators, you know better. Control your temper. A message from Mission Boys Studio 758, Acid Creations, and the Royals and Lucia Police Force. Thanks for staying with us. Remind me once more, you're watching Issues and Answers, and we have two guests from the National Conservation Authority. This is Jacinta Lee, who is the general manager, and we also have Mr. James Edwin, who's the chairman of the National Conservation Authority. We know that at the beaches, you have facilities to maintain, but it might be a different challenge to the other sort of facilities that have more land base. Can you tell us a bit more about that and what would you like to provide for the persons, not just the vendors, but persons who come to enjoy the facilities that you have? Yes, okay. At NCA, we realized that our primary responsibility is maintaining the beaches, and we went to encourage people to visit the beach, locals and visitors. So, we've been on a drive to actually build proper facilities on the beaches so that people can be comfortable when they go to the beach. For instance, at VG, we were able to provide this vending facility that affords people a comfort area where they could change, where they could ease themselves and have something to eat as well. Pigeon Island is the same. This is working quite well. I mean, Pigeon Island is a real success story. Locals are really enjoying the facility that we provided for them. But we have a trouble area at Rodney Bay where every year we land thousands of visitors, hundreds of thousands of visitors on this beach, and there's no real public facility there for them. Right now, we're in the process. We have plans, approved plans to build a washroom facility and also a vending facility for the vendors to get some organization into that space. Because if we are bringing people to our shores, we must provide the facilities and amenities for them. So we are advanced stages on this. Hopefully the funding will come. We are talking to a few agencies like the Tourism Enhancement Fund. We are also talking to the Tourism Authority and there are some promising discussions going on. And hopefully, if not by the end of this year, early next year, we should see some progress on this. Before we wind up, sorry, what are some of the other beaches that you're identifying right now? I noticed you did mention Sandy Beach earlier, what are the prospects of other beaches on the island which are popular with solutions that you're looking to get these stations in? Right, we also want to, because of the congestion at Rodney Bay, Pigeon Island and VG, we want to develop other areas. Kasaba is one of the area that we are looking at. Thanks to Bokai in Kaldisak, they've provided some limited amenities there. We are hoping that that area can be... Sinclusions and visitors can start utilizing that area. They have been. They have been, I don't know what to mean. Rozo Beach is a fairly nice area and that's one area we really would want to see what can be done with that area. We've been talking to the parliamentary rep as well, see what can be done to develop that area so we can open up those areas to visitors and locals, okay? I just want to add that at Pigeon Island, we really want to have a safe space for children and so we've started that process because you find vehicles, particularly on the weekend, play loud music, open the guys open the backs of their vehicles and just blast out music and you find families who just want to enjoy the beaches, have difficulty doing that. So we're trying to have a safe space for the children and apart from that, we have people who drive their vehicles very close to the edge of the beach and it's on the slant and we've seen what happened at Viji. A vehicle actually went into the water at Viji on the beach, into the sea at Viji and so we just want to caution people about parking so close to the beach. In fact, we plan in to upgrade the Pigeon Point so that there'll be designated parking for people so they can be just driving all over the place to have a really nice park at Pigeon Point. Just before we close, I know that there are a number of entities that you go very closely with, one of them would be the San Nusian National Trust. Trust, right. About that cooperation. Oh, it's been going extremely well. In fact, we started our school environmental education program and the National Trust played a key role in that area. We've also worked with like Massey Stores, Harry Spades, Caribbean, Greening the Caribbean. So it's TEF, Tourism Enhancement Fund and so the Ministry of Tourism, Department of Fisheries, Department of Planning and I must give a shout out to Mr. Poyot and his team from the actual, right, they've assisted a whole lot and I'm really thankful for that kind of cooperation and collaboration. Well, we're going to close off in a minute and a half or so but since we've discussed a lot about the behavior of solutions both on the beaches and in public at the parks and whatever, we also know that you have rangers and wardens as well as in operation and what are their powers in terms of controlling what solutions to other beaches and other parks. We wish we could have rangers on all our beaches but right now we have at Redouy, at Redouy Beach, we have our three rangers thanks to the Tourism Enhancement Fund and we would really like to expand to other beaches as well but thanks to the Royal San Lucia Police Force, we work closely with them as well, they will be having dedicated police officers on some of the beaches and so we hope in time to be able to expand to all of our beaches just to provide that security and safety for beach users. Ideally, we would love to have that. At some point there was a unit called, was it the rangers or beach rangers? I think it was under the original Parks and Beaches Commission where there was patrol and... There was rapid response. Ideally if we could have a unit like this based at the NCA, that would help us do all the monitoring and all the policing that we really should be doing as well. So a very good way for us to end up on our program this morning. Are we ending already? Yes, we are. We certainly know that there's a lot more that we can speak about. Maybe for the programs you can look at other areas or the matters pertaining to the NCA. But I'd like to thank you, Mr. James Edwin, the Chairman of the National Conservation Authority and General Manager of the Center League for being part of our program this day. Issues and answers and we're certainly hoping that emanating from this discussion will have better behavior as far as the public is concerned as they go to the beaches and enjoy the natural amenities right here in St. Lucia. This has been Issues and Answers. I'm Rana Bryan. You can join us next time for another program.


If you want to define the outlet of your catchment, then you need to take care that that outlet has to be on the delineated stream. So in this case, the blue line is the delineated stream that corresponds with the filled DEM, which is your model. In reality, however, you want to measure the discharge maybe under this bridge, because the river is here in this valley. And this is a bridge, and here it ends up in La Galave, the larger river. So let's assume we want the outlet here under the bridge. Then we should not take the coordinate by clicking right here at the bridge, because that doesn't correspond with your model. You need to zoom in to the line, click right, and choose Copy Coordinate. Zooming in is needed, because you need to be within the pixel of the DEM, which in this case is within 5 meters. And then you can choose between two types of coordinates, and you need to choose the one of the layer, which is the same as the project and the DEM. And that's this first coordinate. Once you have copied that coordinate in the Processing Toolbox, you can use that in the upslope area to delineate the catchment. By simply pasting the coordinates here, make sure you have the X and the Y in the correct one, and you choose here the filled DEM, etc. Sometimes, however, you receive a file with the outlet. So I'm going to simulate that. I'm going to create here a temporary scratch layer. I call this Outlet, Point Data Type, and in this case I make it in the... Well, let's make it another projection. Let's assume I get it in Latitude Longitude Coordinates, and it has one attribute, an ID. Editing is toggled on, so I can add a point here, and I put it here on the bridge. And that is our outlet. Now, there are two problems with this file. It is in the wrong projection, and it needs to be snapped to the line. So we can change the projection by clicking right, choosing Export, Save Features As, and you can save it to your Geo Package, or to a Shapefile, whatever. Let me save it here to the Fieldwork Database, and I call this Outlet, and I change it to the correct projection, and there it is. I remove the other one. You don't need that. So now this purple point here is the outlet, but it needs to be snapped to this line. You can, of course, do that manually, but there is also this Tool Snap Geometries to Layer. And there we have our input layer, which is the points. And then we have our channels as the reference layer to be snapped to. And we can then give a Tolerance, which is in the Map Unit in meters here. And let's say that it needs to snap there within 100 meters. And there are here different behavior settings. So you can align it, or the closest point. And in this case, I prefer the closest point on the line, and insert extra vertices where required. So it really goes to the closest point. And then I'm going to save that also to the Geo Package. And I call this one Snaped Outlet. I run it. And apparently this point was the closest, so now it is here. Now I want to add the coordinates to the attribute table. And there is a tool for that. Add X, Y Fields to Layer. And you can choose here the projection that you want to add. And it creates a copy. I run it, open the attribute table, and here I get the X and the Y coordinate of the snapped outlet. If you click this button, you can dock the attribute table. So we have it here. And then we can use the upslope area tool. And you can simply do Ctrl C, Ctrl V to copy the coordinate. Change this to the filled VEM. And then we can use that to delineate the catchment. Sometimes, however, you get the coordinates. It just has numbers. There's a plugin, which is called Lotlon Tools. Here we have the tools. And you see that this is not activated yet. So we need to create a new layer. Let's call it Outlet from Coordinates. And I have it in latitude, longitude coordinates. Now you see this is activated. I'm just going to simulate this. I have the coordinates in latitude, longitude. So I'm going to copy that. And so we assume, of course, that you have received that from somebody or from a GPS. So we go to Lotlon Digitize. And here you can enter the coordinate. Latitude, longitude. Or if you want to change that, then you need to change the order here. In our case, this is longitude, latitude. So we need to change this to longitude, latitude. You can also change to other datans that are used. And do add feature. Give the ID number here. And here you see the point is placed. Let me switch off the other points. Save this. Now we have our point. We need to re-project it. And then we can snap it. Now it's snapped there. And then we can repeat the steps to add the coordinates and use that for the delineation. In the same way as we did with the other methods that were explained in this video.


Hi, you guys welcome back to another first impression review video for the big four or if you look at this thing, the big seven who knows how many there are now but the vogue summer vogue summer patterns just dropped. It's a little bit confusing because the other pattern drops from last week and the week before we're all spring so Nobody knows what season it is over there, but regardless we've got a new collection of vote patterns, I am still looking for a pattern for the so along I have been so uninspired it needs to be. Something that is size inclusive and also does not already include a so along so if you see anything in here that you think is suitable that you want to learn how to make. Let me know, otherwise i'm going to have to go back a season, maybe even to last year to find something else, but. Let me know if you can think of anything that you want some help with Okay, the first one here is a Mrs dress in two links with a belt. fitted lined dress with link variations has side front seams on skirt thread loops side seen pockets invisible back zipper left. side front slit and baby hymns view a has contrast inset dress includes matching belt with covered buckle Okay, this is a kind of like a tried and true silhouette for vogue I remember. Oh, I don't know 2018 maybe they did that one with the super deep V that everybody and their brother was making. This one does have the modesty panel which okay I get that that's helpful, but the execution has to be spot on with your skin tone granted, this is a fit model they had no idea what her skin tone was going to be coming in. So you know you can see it on her, but I would assume that if you're doing it yourself you're going to try and get a pretty close match i'm also kind of surprised they didn't offer a solution that wasn't sheer. Just to show the versatility of it you don't have been have to I mean the modesty can be 100% modest or you know just a little bit or not at all i'm sure you can leave it open to but anyways it has this halter design I feel like we're seeing a bunch of. halter tops this season. This one does have like a pleat detail at the neckline you come down i'd like to see without the belt to see is it elastic is it just gathered there what's happening. And then you have this really, really deep slit even looks deeper on the maxi version they said baby hems but that looks like a pretty substantial him to me this what well I don't know I don't know what's happening there. Maybe it's just baby hems on the slit and then the dress him has a one inch him, I don't know okay so that's the front. It really is the same dress in two lengths that's the only difference. It is really beautiful you have a center back zipper and then back waste darts and then a whole bunch of gathering through here. Which i'm assuming that's gathering and not elastic. And also you can barely barely see on her but it is a bit long wasted the scene of the skirt is actually hitting at the bottom of the belt. The belt is sitting at her natural ways so this whole scene needs to be moved up to where the middle of this belt is at the very least maybe even the top of the belt would be appropriate. Vogue is kind of known for really long. Long patterns like the length of them being really long because. I don't know it's like more like fashion maybe I don't know why I don't even the models you gotta imagine these models are like 510 or taller and even they're too long for them so I'm always having to like shorten my Vogue patterns but okay so this is the same. Description. Okay so it looks like only a has the in set be does not. And then a version for see I think would be to have the contrast not be sheer. They're recommending crepe back satin crepe to sheen Matt Jersey that would be really fun I think you can even do it out of like an it why not be really pretty you just have to you know be careful with the fit. And then novelty shears and then for the contrast and a they're recommending chiffon that doesn't seem right a was definitely a sheer of some kind it wasn't chiffon I don't think. And then it's lined at least partially. And then it's lined at least partially lightweight feasible interfacing there and then you make like a full on belt. You have to find some synthetic leather leather and then make the belt from there sizing is six to 14 and then 16 to 24 that translates to. A finished waste because that's the most fitted part here of either of 25 inches up to 40 and a half. So it doesn't look like vogue unless they offer a women's pattern is going to be all that size inclusive. This season either they have a not quite caught on but I mean there's only our first pattern so let me you know stand corrected still. Invisible zipper three hooks and eyes and one buckle to cover. And if we look at these line drawings. You can see that it is a gathered skirt into a. Bodice with also underbust gathers so there's no elastic in there is just a gathered dress is like a fit to flare deep the halter situation. Okay, not bad for the first start, not revolutionary in terms of like style and design, but. Cute summery resort. I can definitely see that being a really beautiful dress to make this one is a Mrs top skirt and pants. Close fitting lined fully interfaced fully interfaced bra. Well, that certainly does take the breathability out of it right. I guess you if you've got the woven interfacing from heat and bond, which is like my all time favorite it's woven. It's not papery it's more woven. Maybe that would be a little bit more breathable. I don't know sweetheart neckline band. Front darts separating back zipper. Flaired skirt has raised waist facings invisible back zipper with hook and I closure and stitched him with horsehair braid. I mean they're going in on the finishing details pants has fly front zipper closure and back well pockets. So. Basically, you can see the style lines of the top here. You have like these sewn on bands. These are kind of difficult to sew. Then again, it is vogue. I gotta remember that we're looking at the top here. But you have this little harnessy looking detail, which I actually do really love. I can't wait to see the back of this to see how that translates to the back under bust darts, but under bust band, the fitting on these even the last dress exceptional there. They really nailed the fit on both of these. These can go wrong really easily, but this one has a facing, so there's no waistband on the skirt and there is one on the pants and then the skirt has lots of different seams, maybe just the lace. They're they really nailed the fit on both of these these can go wrong really easily But this one has a facing so there's no waistband on the skirt and there is one on the pants And then the skirt has lots of different Seams maybe just three. I think center front to side seams.  Okay, cool So you do have this separating zipper. This is how your banding translates in the back So Yeah, I guess I kind of wished this Scooped around to become part of that like Holstery looking I don't know And then as it's supposed to be invisible back zipper execution not that great considering it's Vogue but Maybe it was done in haste. We've all been there, right? All right, so there's the back of the skirt. Here's the back of the pants Yeah, pretty standard trouser here. There might be a little bit of extra fabric through here like she's gonna get a wedgie at any moment Just it's a it's a flatter Crotch curve in the back than what she needs she needs something a little bit more angled Okay Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get the vision. You know and again, I think people are gonna be really drawn to this I don't know why I'm not getting super excited over these. I think Normally, I'd be like, oh my god, this is amazing I guess because maybe I just feel like we've seen this still like I Don't know I've been on Etsy a lot lately and there's tons of Etsy sellers doing stuff like this granted the finishings wouldn't be the same But plus where am I gonna wear that? Maybe that's also why like where am I gonna wear a crop top and a skirt? It's really not to target which is like my baseline for is this too dressy or not I'm close fitting. Okay. We already read all of that. So pockets are Ankara now that actually would be exceptional Broadcloth heavy satin linen satin and twill Lining fabric and then you have your interfacing as well. So it only looks like a little itty-bitty of lining Which makes me think maybe I Know the bra is fully interface, but is it fully lined? Yeah, close fitting lined fully interface bra. Okay. So, yeah 4 to 12 and 14 to 22 anytime. They're including the size for I'm assuming they are they are shooting. They're aiming for a younger demographic just because naturally Like someone in their teens is gonna be smaller on the whole than grown women who have, you know Gone through childbirth and puberty and all of that kind of stuff Okay separating zipper that you adjust to fit So that means you're gonna have to like break off some of the metal teeth That's that's what they're talking about there. I guess they're they know that a four inch There's no such thing as a four inch separating zipper Which is kind of mean it's like give us make the top the length that the zipper. I don't know Okay, then one nine inch invisible zipper for the back of the skirt um horsehair braid a hook and eye and then for the pants button zipper waistband hook and eye And then they did not give us finished garment measurements on the back of this which I mean, this is one of the most important ones. This is so fitted It even says close fitting anytime it says close fitting. I feel like finished garment measurements on the envelope is a must an absolute must Okay, cute fun if I were going to like You know the Maldives or something for sure Um, here is a mrs. Jacket knit top and pants. So now we're kind of leaning into Lord, I don't even know what this is supposed to do Who's wearing this? A neon suit with a sports bra. Okay, that's a choice I don't know that you're wearing this to the office. This is like a whole other element to day to night.  Okay loose fitting online jacket has peeked lapel shoulder pads front extending to side back Um welt pockets an interface lined two-piece sleeves pretty standard blazer Happening knit crop top is self lined and has bust darts So it's a crop tank top White like pants low rise sit one inch below the waist with a fly front zipper inside front pockets I do like the the leg the shape of the leg of these pants better than the red ones before but Where where are we going? I get that like target is my threshold and that's a low bar But even on my best day Where am I wearing trousers and a cropped tank top? I guess I'd have to live and I'd have to have this lifestyle that I I don't even know Miami Right. I'm um Okay I I'm not going to work in this right Also, she looks young Which I guess again, yeah That's who's wearing this young people In like a big city and they probably would freaking wear it to work Gen Z right who can explain it I mean, it is a beautiful fitting suit. Um, right. I mean looks exceptional on her Just the concept is just so strange. Yeah, the pants fit exceptionally. Thank you for giving me a back view without the jacket um It's just an odd concept for all three of these things to be in one Pattern, but you know what I'm always asking for something different I'm always saying like don't give us the same thing over and over again And they have delivered here, right? Like how can we reinvent? the classic women's Pantsuit I know Throw it on with a cropped tank top and make it a neon on top of all of that It's fun. It's youthful. I just feel like it's a very very niche situation happening Fabrics for the suit linen blends men's suiting Which why does it have to be men's suiting isn't suiting just suiting Is there a separate suiting for women and men now? No, that's odd um Sear sucker stretch wovens For your little tank top four way stretch knits 75 cross grain stretch. Thank you very much for putting the exact percentage on here um And then lining fabric for the jacket and pants the lining the only the sleeves are lined on the jacket I don't know what is lined in the pants Oh, maybe just the pockets and the waistband Okay, so eight to sixteen and then 18 to 26 So we do have one size larger than we've seen so far Still not giving us finished garment measurements Which I get for the jacket not super necessary But do we have measurement body measurements even at all on this? No They've replaced that with another explanation of the Garment which we see on the front page I guess in the store you wouldn't see that though. I don't know Wow, okay all right, so No finished garment measurements shoulder pads buttons Elastic for your I guess it goes Three yards, so Yeah, maybe all all the openings get the elastic maybe And then zipper all your normal fly front closure stuff Okay, I mean You get what you asked for Lindsey, you know or be careful what you asked for maybe that's the better the better term The better adage Let's see what else we've got this mrs. Top another halter now I I know this is like a throwback, but I love a halter top with a collar I don't know what it is. It just feels like such a sexy boss move to me I'm a big fan of that detail But this is a close fitting top self faced corset waist detail with boning collar and collar band And exposed separating zipper closure view a has long set in sleeves ending and button costs with seam opening and view b His halter style has arms finished with purchased bias tape and a shaped hem So this is I hate this white zipper, but okay, nonetheless, this is a really Interesting take on Office wear again, it's a corseted top But it looks like You're kind of classic Button down This paired with the suit from the pattern before Would have made a little bit more sense Um At least it's like a collared shirt. You could definitely wear this with that suit or any suit um, I think it's I think it's really cool. I think that the idea of taking something like a like a collar that is so like, you know professional and conservative and then pairing it with something that over the years has You know taken on many different forms in terms of sexiness um Combining those two things Is really fun It's really fun. I like this. I like this. I'm not going to make this But the concept of this is really cool and fresh and I appreciate that Yeah, not I I can't do the low rise jeans guys and also are we going back to skinnies now we just We just finally got everybody on the same path that skinnies were out Or I should say slim fit Slim ankle. I don't know what the right term is anymore. Um Yeah, that's a really cool cool outfit if I saw somebody else in that It's also kind of reading a little bit cache. And you might even remember that store Um cache a white house black market that feels like the kind of woman that would Be making this Okay, here's the envelope um fabrics broad cloth cotton shirting and satin 6 to 14 and then 16 to 24 on the size range A ton of notions so featherweight boning separating zipper buttons And then for the top the uh halter top version the same thing but you would also just need bias tape for the um A longer zipper and bias tape for the arm holes Finish garment measurements. Okay, so our waist the corseted waist Finished is 24 and a half up to 40 because they're not giving me body chart measurements Body measurement chart with this. I have no way of assessing what that I mean, I know what my body is But what's the intended ease? That's the whole problem with getting home. So is to make clothes that fit them is You give us a body measurement chart. You give us a finished garment measurement chart And we know our measurements like our own body measurements, but what's it supposed to fit like? You know, that's why I have like the fast fit worksheet to help you make sense of all of that So, um, but I'm not going to be able to do that in this video because I don't have anything to compare to So I'm assuming one or two inches of ease in the waist, but I honestly have no idea Okay, okay So next We have shorts and pants pleated wide leg pants and shorts Sit below the waist both bottoms have fly front zipper button closure eye waistband side seam pockets and Belt loops and stitched hems UA has cargo pants with flaps. Oh my goodness. Oh and a rope belt just To boot. Okay Okay Your classic pleated wide leg pant. They are serving us with three different pant variations so far with the suit pant the What was the other one? I don't even remember we had like the low-rise suit pant. Oh the the more cigarette pant Before that one and now this wide leg pant all with fly front closures So they're not skimping on that detail. This one has pleats. It has belt buckles. I'm sorry belt loops Sightseeing pockets all of that is great This throw on a cargo pocket to anything these days. I'm not I'm not I don't get it I don't get it No vogue woman is going to actually put anything in that pocket Maybe the fabrication went wrong like if you could show it to me in a fabric where it kind of makes sense I'd I'd buy into it more But look at this styling like Is she going fishing? Is that is that what we're doing here? Um, and then she has the rope just in case something goes awry. She's like, you know prepared with some kind of safety mechanism I don't know. I just don't know Um, I I'm getting like, okay beachy. Okay. I'm getting that cargo You know kind of leans toward like fishing is this like Sheik fishing I don't know. I don't get that one But the pants are beautiful The shorts are beautiful. I just don't get the cargo Yeah, now this the back of these pants might be a little too rounded A little too close fitting for her I feel like she's a little bit of ease through here But not as much as there was on her the last time nice big long darts, which is nice Yeah, I'm assuming the waistband is curved. It's fitting. It's fitting pretty good pretty good for a fit model If I had a waistband that turned out that good, I would be happy with that um This here is interesting though, but that could just be because she has one leg longer than the other It's you know certain things you just have to kind of like You know give them And yourself a break for Looks beautiful on this leg though, that's for sure Yeah, really pretty and I think the fit on her in the bum is really good Okay, here is the back of the pattern linen tensile twill and wool suiting Okay, and in lining fabric so they aren't even like Yeah, I guess they're just trying to make it more like a literal version of sportswear um six to fourteen and sixteen and twenty four on the side Range that's a finished waist of twenty four to thirty nine and a half so That probably means nothing to you. It really kind of means nothing to me um Okay, now we've got a badge Lee Mischa So they're doing they're still maintaining their collaboration with Vogue. They've also got the new collaboration at joanne um, so they are really just You know serving the home sewage, which is really nice Fit and flare lined dress Close fitting through bust has spread collar with collar stand notch lapels short sleeves belt decorative covered buttons thread carriers Sightseeing pockets invisible back zipper hook and eye closure note Raw edge collar lapel and hems designed for non fraying fabrics such as scuba Or fraying fabrics that you want that to be a detail Interesting. It's a scuba dress. Okay. Um Well, that doesn't feel very summery to me. That feels like I'm sweating buckets in this thing Maybe like lightweight paunty would would be a maybe another option. You could it definitely wouldn't fray again like The design and then the fabrication don't go together. I don't get it. I don't get it badge Lee Or michka It is pretty Kind of giving like a little bit of like maybe forties flare to it Maybe if it's like a summer, I guess I got to think about badge Lee michka being like, you know, kind of high end maybe it is like a Like a evening Evening dress, but the white is making me feel like it's daytime or bridal And then the collar and the belt and the double breastedness is all making it feel very corporate. I don't know I don't know where we're going in this Wow Okay, so moderate stretch knits 35 cross grain stretch. Thank you again for putting the percentage in there Such as bonded knits double knits scuba fabrics Double knit could be interesting This I think that what would what would happen mostly is people are going to see this and they are going to think Oh cute a little sundress And then realize there's no hymns. And so they're going to be really confused um But again, your belt is being made with synthetic leather for the belt backing. So that's legit 6 to 14 16 to 24 on the size range The waist is the most fitted again 26 and a half to 42 Generous hip and the bust is pretty generous too. I'm guessing Okay, next we have Oh lord. Okay, mrs. Top Bias cut tops have layered fronts Invisible side zipper hook and eye closure in back of neck An armhole facings and baby hymns bb has back slit opening This is just like the early 2000s. I never wanted to see come back. I don't love a layered top It's first of all super expensive to make because there's you know two layers of fabric and secondly, it's just I kind of I actually really do appreciate the shape of the arm hole and the high neckline um It's just like again, I brought this up last time I was talking about this like are we trying to make tunics a thing again? Like tunics weren't great the first time around Maybe if you have this figure but anybody who is pair anybody who is Hourglass anybody with hips like it's just Not the best You do have the option of the true halter top or the little slit opening though Yeah, I don't know I'm torn. Maybe if it were like shorter I would like it more but then I just have like a flowy top and I'm just I'm not doing the flowy top thing anymore And I just like not a vogue girl anymore. Like I might have I reached that point in my life where I'm just Not getting dressed up at all Or at least my version of dressing up is not this fabrics recommended are lightweight crepe rayon chalice silk broadcloth silk short moose um 8 to 16 and then 18 to 26 on the size range Um, you're probably going to use your bust to fit this so 32 and a half to 49 inches on the bust Finished Yeah, like I said, I kind of I really do like The neckline and arm's eye of it all but After that you kind of lose me Okay, now we have this rachel comey. Save us rachel save us Mrs. Dress by rachel comey Um a line midi dress with cut out details has neck tie I'm assuming that's the same. That's just a typo, right? Sydney fitted self-lined front bodice bias back neck and back armhole facings and elastic back skirt of the dress has lining side seam pockets invisible side zipper with hook and eye and stitched him Okay, this is feeling youthful in an appropriate approachable way um This all of this is like coming through here. I'm guessing and causing all this to cinch off That's kind of cool and fun and then it's I think intended to kind of fall off the shoulder a little bit Which creates a beautiful hourglass and then you also have the elastic back here now I'm not entirely sure if this is supposed to be droopy We'll look at the line drawings and see what they indicate um Or if it's supposed to be pulled tighter and more straight across on both I'm thinking the skirt maybe is supposed to be droopy and then the top is not It is really cool and fun and interesting. That's for sure. Okay. I'm liking this one. I'm here for this one styling feels right It feels cool without trying too hard um Yeah, okay, and like I suspected the back is supposed to be straight across so pay attention to that again That probably has something to do with bows just length of their bodices Um, and then the skirt is supposed to hang a little bit. This is super cool. I like this Is this this not two options. There's a seam there So you could make it shorter. Obviously that's an easy change to make anyways, but This is cool. I love this. I typically do like Rachel Comey's designs though It's like simple modern chic But still has like some I don't know. There's something to it um Okay, so fabrics would be cotton-shirting linen blends pop lint. I think that's what they use for their version Rayon Shelly. I don't know about that seersucker. Hey seersucker could be cool and fun For sure and then lining wise it looks like a lot of it is lined Maybe that's what this line is. It's lined to here Skirt of the dress has lining. That's all it says So the top of the dress does not Armhole facings. Okay. Okay. So just the skirt is lined And then you have facings for the top, but I don't know why you couldn't Line that to instead of the facings Okay, 8 to 16 and then 18 to 26 Um And because of the design of this that's getting us A hip of 61 and a half finished And a bust of 52 and a half finished and then your waist is really You know sized by this elastic So it is pretty forgiving in the fit department Maybe this is why I like it so much. I just inherently knew that it would be good for my figure. Um Yeah, okay That's cool. I like that one a lot. Yay. Thank goodness. It wasn't a complete bust Keep it coming. Keep it coming I feel like I'm playing that no wimmy no wimmy Okay, now we've got a mrs.  Okay Oh Oh Interesting. Okay. Okay. This is an entire Button placket. This whole thing is buttons. I think we'll look at the notions, but I think all this is buttons um Okay, so that's a unique way to I mean, I don't know that I'm fully here for the cold shoulder being back again um And again, where am I wearing this? This this to me feels really matronly, right? It feels like A very chic and cool grandma, but you know, somebody not my age for sure Um Even this version, um Golly, I want to like it. I'm kind of think of it. We're just longer into a dress Would that help I I think that I think I'm having a hard time with these tunics I think I'm just I never really understood tunics before I never thought they were very flattering on anybody Um, I get the idea of wanting to like cover parts of your body up But there's better ways to do that than a big oversized shirt um So, yeah, I think maybe if it were lengthened and like, you know, nine or so inches a foot maybe Even keeping this longer bit at the back that could be really cool Yeah, I see how it's unbuttoned here now That is cool. I do like that that feels fresh. Um Maybe the sheer fabric feels like wrong to like they're again trying too hard Like I like the look of this this looks good Yeah, I think it's just like the front tunic part of it. The line drawings even look super cool Like this feels like it could be a Rachel Comey garment actually if it were just Longer just a little bit longer. So that would be my vote. I would for sure make this if it were longer Yeah, then make it into a dress length, but man, that's a lot of work. There are lots of hidden button bands Um, especially if you're going to do it in these fabrics Broadcloth not too bad. Shambray certainly not bad. Shirting's great. Linenblends poplin Okay, but hold on like wait a minute. You're giving me Like some kind of rayon here. This is freaking sheer. Where's the recommendation for that? Like you're not even recommending what you used in your sample that feels I don't know misleading And I'm thinking about like the new or so is right? Who doesn't know better? And they're looking for something lightweight I mean look at this picture in the on the cover where this is like catching the wind and it's so beautiful and flowy You're not getting that out of a broad cloth Or a shirting or certainly not poplin So that just feels like a miss 8 to 16 and an 18 to 26 on the size range finished I mean, it's a very oversized garment all through and through so finished garment measurements are really kind of pointless right now Six buttons for a and 12 buttons for b for the sleeve All right next Give me something good classic Diane von Furstenberg design wrap front dress have neck bands hand sewn hems and sleeve and skirt variations View a has three quarter sleeves ending in bands with split detail view b has short sleeves in collar. Is this knit? I want to know that first Yeah, moderate stretch is 35 on the cross grain mattresses silk jersey. Okay, so this is a Diane von Furstenberg wrap dress These are universally flattering Um, if you find like this pretty jersey, it is so comfortable. I feel like she sort of invented pajamas as Clothes, you know what I mean? Um, this little collar Detail is very much her the sleeve with the slit detail is also something she was very well known for so Classic classic. She's been making these for decades and they're not going anywhere um So fun to see this added. I'm sure they've done versions of this in the past um But you know it works so why not keep coming keep them coming um I mean this Diane made frigging fortune off of this design so No reason why we can't just keep releasing sewing patterns of them All right, so as we said moderate stretch 35 percent Um, I you know, I don't know you do you but if you're really going to base it off of the Diane the dbf version it is more of like a Kind of like a silky slinky kind of fabric Maybe even i2y would be nice if you're not going to spring for silk jersey um, I feel like cotton jersey might be a little bit too Sticky and clingy like you really want something that's that's slinky Okay, and then I didn't notice this before but there's also a couple bust starts here And then you have the band so let's see Okay, interesting. I was looking to see what the um notions were there aren't any Which is really disappointing because I would want something in here to keep this from stretching out Um same thing in the shoulder like some some stay tape or something. Um, they're not giving us any of that so Oh, that's a bit of a disappointment There is a little bit of interfacing which i'm assuming you're putting in the neck line. Okay, but interfacing is not enough to keep these knits from Stretching out over time you've seen t-shirts that That get really gross around the neckline. You didn't want this to happen to yours So I would look up some you know finishes some couture finishes for um Bias cut neck band Kind of things and see what you can find but at the very least Stay tape or ribbon something But I guess we're gonna keep it in the easy category so All right, next we have a Mrs. Jacket tunic and pants by marcie tilton. Okay Marcy has never strayed away from her love of tunics So for for this pattern at the very least I can get behind a tunic Loose fitting jacket has inseam stitched down pockets optional bias facings stitched or hand sewn him And set in two piece sleeves with deep turnback hem facings tunics have sleeveless or three-quarter sleeve link option with self facings inseam floating pockets By his binding in front darts pull on pants have oval pockets. Oh my goodness has so many words this jacket is intense inseam stitched down pockets are optional Okay bias facings stitched or hand sewn him And two piece sleeve with deep turnback hem facings. Okay, I got it now all right, so starting with this I guess this little What do we get a c d and b We're gonna go to the line drawings just to make sure I can Tell everything apart. So you have the jacket. This is the inseam stitched down pocket um The collar on this is really cool Yeah, this is fun.  What is this? Is that a seam? Yeah So there's a seam down the center front and right here. That's a very very mercy thing to do um Same thing with the long sleeve top This one has the deep turnback hem as well But this one also has a little notch in the back and then the pants are just elastic pull-on pants There are welt pockets in the back though. Okay All right, all of that makes a lot more sense now. So Again, here's our super cool layering piece It's unlined. It's unfaced. It's there's it's like you can tell because this is like a eyelet, right? And there's nothing under this. This is just all Hemmed it's just a lot of time hemming and the fact that they're even merely Suggesting that you can hand sew this hem down makes me want to punch someone in the face but You have options So that's that version and then there's the top again with the Center front and then this little cross seam again very mercy Very long too. Um, I don't think this is supposed to hit Anywhere I mean, I don't think it's like supposed to be at your waist or supposed to be at your high hip But I would definitely pay attention to the waist Like the horizontal markings of your bust waist and hip on this tunic Just to make sure it doesn't get too overwhelming. Same thing with this top here The sheerness of this top, you know, I got it must be a fabrication thing when it comes to the tunics, right? Like Why do I like these and the other ones I was just not not excited for at all I think it's got to be fabrication Or Marcy's just really good at making them cool even though they're freaking tunics And they shouldn't be cool, but they are because Marcy's done it Um wrong side of your fabric is going to show on the jacket. Keep that in mind This doesn't bother me too much, but there are some fabrics where I would be really be like, oh god, that's so distracting And then there's the pants. Are we going to see any more of the pants? The pants aren't little I don't know about the pants The length is odd I get I think maybe the length of them with the length of all of this But still also the length Yeah, that jacket is super cool Really pretty tops I think this would be a really pretty like beach cover up too Okay So fabrics cotton-shirting eyelets linen rayon bemberg Okay, that's specific rayon shally seersucker silks and silkies And then b and c have some kind of lining to them Uh, the for the facings maybe I don't know And then no finished garment measurements, but all of her stuff is usually pretty As you can see loose fitting anyways, so Um a little bit forgiving in the fit department I don't know that I would wear all these things together Like this is not an outfit I would wear But I would certainly take pieces and parts of it and I could see myself wearing it Certain places with certain things Okay, now we have this skirt It's a lot of skirt Asymmetric ruffled skirt has invisible back zipper sightseeing pockets, baby hymns and length variations Very vogue, right? Um Okay, so waistband gathered skirt And then this enormous Ruffle it is a ruffle and not a flounce. I don't think you could fit that fabric if it were a flounce This is definitely some kind of like, you know, not drapey fabric very structured This is a little bit more draped to it, which is why it's falling in on her body a little bit more It's cool. It's fun. I want to go dancing, you know, like flamenco style I want to like kick it up and twirl around and stuff I'm don't know about going to target in this But I do think that them pairing these skirts with just basic knit tank tops was the right move um Kind of balancing it out The high heels I haven't worn a stiletto in years and I don't plan on going back um So yeah, again, ooh Never mind that is not cute That is not cute. That makes her bum look enormous And I already have a bum that looks enormous. So I don't need one to make it look even more enormous That one's better. Okay. So the the satiny tapeta, you know, dupeony of it all probably I don't know about that in terms of how the back of the skirt is drafted almost because it like here, I'll show you because it's like, um Pulled in here, right for her waist, which is Flattering and great and then it comes out here But it's not a line enough like the gathers are almost being pulled in a little bit So it's creating this like You know bubble For her bum so Maybe just paying careful attention that you know, that doesn't Yeah, even I maybe not that I'm looking at it easy. It even is like a little bit of a straight I would I would maybe even kick it out some just to help with that illusion a little bit Yeah, see how this one's kind of coming out a little bit more. It's not much but And it's probably the same pattern piece. I don't yeah, it's got to just be the fabric there Or maybe even the execution of adding those gathers to it. How much fabric? Oh my good gracious the long one be Six almost six yards The fact that you can even make this out of 45 inch fabric is pretty impressive actually Um, so Ankara chambray linen blend satin tapeta I didn't try it out of something really drapey. That could be kind of cool, too And then finished waste is 25 and a half to 42 for our eight to 16 and 18 to 26 size range Not for everybody. I can see it for an event. I could see it for someone whose lifestyle is you know, you do special things um I would like to see it I'd like to see a casual version of it somehow. I'm just other than fabrication There's no really other way to do that so All right now we have Tom and Linda They've been around for years. This feels a little bit plain for Tom and Linda. No underlined lined dress Good grief Close fitting through bust has side and princess seam pleats side seam pockets lingerie guards, which are bra carriers Ruffled petticoat attached to the lining and invisible back zipper with hook and eye closure So a very unassuming denim dress. I was not denim. Oh gosh. I thought it was like chambray, but it's not it's um Oh Is this jacquard? No, I don't know what it's called. That's beautiful That is stunning if you have a wedding Uh to go attend Um, this is really really really really pretty You guys all agree with that, right? Um, I think you have these princess seams that open out into this You're maintaining that full skirt with the petticoat underneath Beautiful neckline like absolutely stunning neckline. This is really pretty I have nowhere to wear this but I want this just in case You know kind of thing Yeah, look at the line drawing so classic so pretty Love this one brocade cloak, I've never actually seen cloak before. Is that what that was? micado shantung And then lining number one is for your bodice and your hem binding charmous and china silk And then the second lining your underlining is in organza And that again is keeping or creating structure Then you have inner facing for the bodice So the skirt is not lined so That's confusing Because it says ruffled petticoat. I don't like sitting on organza That feels uncomfortable So I'd want to put some another another layer in there to make it a little bit more comfortable I'd have to look at the construction to see what is touching my body and what is not But 8 to 16 18 to 26 on the size range I mean individually Okay, yeah, that's a lot of fabric never mind But you just need one zipper and one hook and I in two small snaps for your bra carriers. That's it. Okay, so In some ways cheaper than some of the other garments we've seen even if they have fewer If you were guarded to requirement that is so pretty love that one all right Next up we have a little lingerie set. This is a mrs. Robe slip dress camisole and pants Loose fitting wrap robe has set in sleeve sightseeing pockets front gathers bias facings Belt and thread loops bias cut fitted camisole and slip have narrow shoulder straps and bust arts So the dress and this I mean the camisole and the slip are the same. Just one is longer than the other one Seneafitted pants above ankle length Have elastic waist and then applied trim to all of them This is a really pretty dress to like wear out to dinner. Um You know a vogue A vogue night wear set is just so freaking extra But I mean Like look at her face. She knows she's like I am rich Oh, it's elegant. Yeah, it's really pretty but it is what it is, right? It's not like, you know anything revolutionary in terms of style and design It does fit some people's like Holes in their wardrobe, right? Like if you wanted like a silk set You can make your own with this I just don't know like how practical it is for everybody I'm gonna go back to this real quick. This is a little bit Concerning through here just a little bit big on her Um, the bust art looks good. This is just maybe this bias binding got a little out of control got out of out of Away from them a little bit Same thing with this hem on the bottom. That's rough But that's beautiful.  I mean that's a stunning just little dress Okay, and I do like how the robe is like This shape, you know It's meant to be wrapped which I like Oh, that's why it's called a wrapped robe Okay. Well, there you have it Um charmous crepe de sheen rayon shali. I cannot believe they didn't recommend like actual silk Um and then purchase trim 6 to 14 and 16 to 24 Look at all of these notions. Well, most of it is the trim never mind and then just a little bit of elastic for the pants No finished garment measurements Yeah, it's really pretty. It's really pretty. No doubt about it Okay, now we have oh gosh a vintage vogue this is Circa 1974 loose fitting dress in mid knee length has square neckline front button band closing and Wide front and back seaming No side seams wait Wide front and back seaming no side seams Okay, above elbow or full length wide kimono sleeves With bands tie belt Holds in fullness at waistline authentic blah blah blah, okay um Wow, okay. Look at that. That's okay. Um probably not my choice to pick for a reproduction, but It's cool enough I guess square neckline button band Let's see the So there's no there's no side seam. This is confusing though. No side seam thing is throwing me off. Um Just because I can't like picture that in my mind like how that's constructed um Yeah, okay Soft or crisp fabric such as broadcloth shali shali is crisp since when corduroy How are those two things in the same? Let's throw in some double knit some flannel Gabbarding muslin just make it out of muslin. Sure and then shantung like what is that that is like That runs the entire gamut of possible fabrics Um 8 to 16 and then 18 to 26 on the size range for this one And then you have your finished garment measurements here, which It seems pretty oversized Yeah, I it doesn't feel like you could make that very modern and cool. Maybe that's why I'm having a hard time I also don't like it when they use. I mean, I think the old illustrations are cute, but I wish they would make a sample too Just to see it on like a modern woman, you know and also not a cartoon Okay, now we have This was from last time. All right, so now we've caught back up with whatever the last collection was Um, so I distinctly remember this little dress. All right, so that's Vogue summer Woof. What do we think? What do we think? What do we think? I um There are some really strong patterns here. Maybe not for me in my lifestyle, but there are some strong patterns here some of them This this is like throwing me the the freaking cargo pocket on these shorts. It's just really weird But overall Oh, the tunics are back. I It's hit or miss. I feel like it's a very Polarizing collection for me personally either. I I can really get behind it like the dbf Knock off and the racial commie dress or it's just like Meh It's it's not love or hate. It's Love or like no not even lover like it's like love or Indifferent which that might even be worse than hate I don't know to have no feeling about it. I don't know. Um But I want to know what you guys think leave your Impressions in the comment section below Otherwise, that's gonna do it for me on the big four five six seven Um collection until we start getting some more summers. Um So hopefully that'll be coming since summer is around the corner, but I'll see you guys soon. Bye


The first common myth which is seen in leprosy is that leprosy spreads by shaking hands or touching a person or by sharing clothing, food, items, towels, utensils, that's a myth. The leprosy spreads by droplet infection. The second myth is that leprosy is not treatable. There are proper regimens, there are proper drugs now available which can treat leprosy. The third myth is that leprosy is a highly mutilating disease and as a result it can cause deformities. Leprosy does not cause deformities unless the patient has a very high bacteria load and the leprosy is neglected for many years.


So, heat night it is then, here we go. And again a very nerdy start for the man on the inside, Max Frick has got there. Watch out for Maxon. Oh, Maxon gets so much drive-in white and round the outside. Jason Doyle, what a move from the 2017 World Champion. Maxon now comes back on the inside. Great move from Leon Maxon. Max Frick is third and the man in the back is Jakob Toshel. The water race here! Brilliant stuff from Doyle to repay the compliment. Maxon once again, stunning round the inside, got so much speed.
