The last of our monthly recs for 2023 ❤️ Every Day’s a Holiday (When I’m Near to You) by bleedingballroomfloor (book-verse)

@dot524: I loved every bit of this road trip fic. Henry has a crush on Alex and impulsively decides to join him on a road trip to Texas, which turns out to be longer than expected. The delicious yearning, only-one-bed situations, and funny road-trip pit stops made this a great story. I didn’t want to stop reading.

@heybuddy-drabbles: this ticked all my boxes honestly. The pinning, the yearning. The friendship they build while falling in love. And then the love, wild and unstoppable and so free. It was just perfect.

I love you, ain’t that the worst thing you ever heard? by dollarstoreannabethchase (book-verse)

@dot524: A deliciously angsty Henry POV of key events in the book - lake house & storming of Kensington Palace. Broke my heart and put it back together again. The description of his depression and pain made me want to give Henry a hug.

Last Christmas by @celaestis1 (book-verse)

@suseagull04: Enemies to lovers meets Christmas feels and found family. The establishment of every relationship, both romantic and platonic, in this fic is fantastic too!

Never Did Run Smooth by @clottedcreamfudge (book-verse)

@dot524: What a delightful ride! I loved the unique reality-show setup and the roommates/best friends to lovers pining from Henry’s POV. It had a few fun plot turns that kept me guessing and many scenes that made me grin like an idiot (e.g. a cake-baking contest and partner yoga with someone else). This isn’t exactly an undiscovered gem based on the number of comments and kudos — but I hadn’t read it, so I wanted to spread the word for those new to the fandom!

No Consequences by @anchoredarchangel (book-verse)

@thesleepyskipper: In this AU where Henry is still the Prince but Alex is a civil rights lawyer who works with Pez, the author has given us an incredible meet cute!! Alex pulls an Alex and shoots his shot for a selfie that turns out pretty well for him in the end. 😏 The author’s writing of Alex here is absolutely spot on AND hilarious. I still can’t believe this is their first published fic!!!

@zwiazdziarka: this fic has everything one could ask for: it's funny, it's cute, it's awkward, it's hot and addictive. I can't stop thinking about this version of Alex and Henry and their characterisation is absolutely perfect!

Made For Love by @candyspandemonium (book-verse)

@zwiazdziarka: AU where Henry and June are ice dancing champions and Alex has a lot of feelings about some guy stealing his sister. There are just so many good things in this fic - emotions, Alex being totally unhinged and not realising what it means, Henry as perfect fantasy, dealing with media and public opinion - and all that in nice scenery of ice rinks. Can't recommend it enough!

(Secret) Santa Baby by @indomitable-love (book-verse)

@dot524: Such a sweet AU about office romance between Alex and Henry and how a Secret Santa gift & being paired together on a project leads to something more. Heartwarming and made me smile… this writer’s characterization of Alex & Henry is always spot-on for me, no matter the universe.

The Royal Magician and the Ravens of the Tower of London by @bluflamingo (book-verse)

@suseagull04: The world-building in this fic is phenomenal! It's the perfect blend of magical realms and the real world, mystery and magic AU, and I love it!

could it be mad love? by @duchessdepolignaca03 (book/movie-verse)

@zwiazdziarka: actors AU, but also Henry is Alex's biggest fan and his awkward celebrity crush adds all new flavour to their relationship once they meet. The range of emotions fit in this story is truely amazing. There's so much tension and every moment feels like the one where it all can turn into a dissaster or something absolutely wonderful.

where every wish comes true by @hypnostheory (book-verse)

@heybuddy-drabbles: Neighbors!au + fuck buddies. Alex locks himself out of his apartment in a filthy costume and his neighbor and fuck buddie Henry takes him in. It's very funny and sexy!!

              QUARTERS CRUSHED INTO PENNIES,

name:   roy kent. also known as:   roy-o, kent, coach, “the best midfielder in the history of the premier league” if you’re feeling especially lovely.  date of birth:    15th february, 1982. zodiac:   aquarius sun, scorpio moon, virgo rising, capricorn venus. an unwillingness to follow the beaten track; the ability to see what isn't apparent to the rest of the world which can be intimidating or wildly attractive; modesty veiled beneath standoffishness; a fine line between love and hate. gender & pronouns:    cis male, he/him. romantic & sexual orientation:   biromantic, bisexual. closeted. current residence(s):    house in kensington, house in cobham.

              ONE THOUGHT TURNED INTO MANY,

faceclaim:     brett goldstein. hair:     dark brown, (usually) trimmed curls, has grown them out in accordance with his willingness to see the barber. it usually isn’t styled much, holds its shape out of the shower with a bit of mousse if necessary, sometimes it’s just brushed out. his beard grows thick and full if he lets it but it’s usually trimmed back enough to be reasonable. the rest of him is covered in it too. eye colour & sight:    a warm brown. his vision is alright. he’s far too stubborn to go for glasses but he could probably do with them for reading. physique:     5’10 and pretty lean. carries himself like he’s double that.  scars/marks:     a couple of vague numbers from injuries through his youth — nothing severe. his knee looks fine but continues to plague him with frequent pain, worsened by excessive use. style: black, or shades of. crewnecks, skinny jeans, leather jacket, boots or trainers. very simple, he honestly doesn’t want to think about it. he's got some fun socks though.

              MY RESISTANCE IS CRUSHED,

nationality:     british ethnicity:    jewish ailments:     the knee. lactose intolerance. allergy to metals. occupation:     retired professional footballer. former pundit. former assistant coach of afc richmond. manager of afc richmond. career:     left london after being scouted by sunderland at nine years old. after sunderland were relegated in 2003, he transferred to chelsea. then to richmond in 2019, knowing his career would soon end.  family (tw, death of a grandparent):     roy’s family were, unfortunately, never a huge part of his life growing up. his parents worked to keep them afloat and roy was a boy with little regard for anything bar football. he was close to his granddad, who watched roy and his sister most of his youth, but he suddenly died the first year roy was gone for sunderland. he was a lonely child who coped the only way he knew how — through the game. it was fortunate that he came out on the other side successful, and though his relationship with his parents never exactly blossomed, following the dissolution of her marriage, roy and his sister grew exceptionally close. he gives up as much of his time as possible to look after his niece, phoebe, and would do absolutely anything to give her a good childhood.

              I'M JUST HERE TO BUY SOME TANGERINES!

mbti:    istp. relatively chill; unempathetic and generally unwilling to converge unless he wants to; concrete thinking; follows his own track.  outlook:    pessimistic. positive traits:    a leader, driven, loyal, passionate, observant, independent, logical, patient. negative traits:    stubborn, hot-tempered, blunt, vulgar, overly-detached, emotionally reserved.

                                                VERSES.

pre-canon:   yeah, he was a prick, but he was that prick. pounding over every blade of grass (as often as he wasn’t sent off), a powerhouse on the pitch. it’s hard to call him a primadonna when he’s that fucking good.  season one:    captain of “notoriously mediocre” team, richmond afc. generally unhappy with his performance, generally unhappy. after a final match against man city, roy injuries his knee and limps off the pitch to the sounds of his chant: he’s here, he’s there, he’s every-fucking-where, roy kent! it’s his last game. retirement:   roy coaches his niece’s girls-under-9 football team for awhile. then reluctantly agrees to take a job as a pundit and, despite his vulgarity, is met with positive acclaim. eventually, he returns to richmond as a coach. post canon:    with lasso returning to america, kent takes the position as richmond’s manager.  unless otherwise plotted, roy kent is a public figure and a celebrity in all of these verses (though at the peak of said fame during his run at chelsea). it's likely that your muse will know of him. fantasy: to be added.

                                                SHIPPING.

roy is open to shipping. unless otherwise plotted, in his post canon verse, i will default roy's relationship status to very much in love with jamie tartt & keeley jones. so, "in a relationship", no further questions.

i.  prosopography  .

            jimin’s  story  begins  with  the  fateful  meeting  of  her  parents  ,  kim  seo - yeon  and  jung  do - young  ,  on  a  cold  winter’s  day  .  they  found  themselves  at  the  tender  ages  of  20  and  22  ,  attending  a  boring  christmas  gala  with  their  parents  when  they  would  have  preferred  to  do  anything  else  in  the  world  .  seo - yeon  was  a  women  who  knew  what  she  wanted  the  moment  her  eyes  landed  upon  it  ,  so  when  she  made  brief  eye  contact  with  do - young  ,  she  purposefully  spilled  a  glass  of  champagne  onto  his  expensive  tom  ford  suit  and  made  a  big  deal  of  it  .  this  sparked  their  whirlwind  romance  ,  and  six  months  later  they  found  themselves  announcing  their  engagement  to  korean  media  outlets  .

           despite  how  quickly  they  were  engaged  ,  their  parents  saw  this  as  mutually  beneficial  .  seo - yeon  is  the  youngest  daughter  of  the  wealthy  kim  family  ,  owners  of  the  kq  group  conglomerate  that  was  worth  billions  in  its  own  right  .  do - young  was  the  only  child  of  his  parents  ,  and  came  from  park  family  lineage  where  their  hotels  and  resorts  were  the  cause  of  their  fortune  .  the  families  were  soon  to  be  one  ,  and  the  couple  was  the  chaebol  heirs  that  others  envied  .  following  their  lavish  wedding  ,  seo - yeon  and  do - young  decided  that  they  were  going  to  head  off  to  london  to  make  a  life  for  themselves  .  so  ,  they  transferred  to  oxford  university  ,  finished  their  schooling  ,  and  shortly  after  seo - yeon’s  graduation  from  the  financial  economics  program  ,  the  couple  discovered  that  they  were  expecting  .

          it  was  a  sticky  summer  day  when  seo - yeon  unexpectedly  gave  birth  to  their  daughter  ,  who  decided  not  to  allow  her  parents  time  to  get  to  the  hospital  .  jimin  was  born  in  the  bathtub  of  her  parents’  luxury  bathroom  ,  and  right  into  the  arms  of  her  slightly  panicked  but  overjoyed  father  .  from  the  time  that  she  was  a  toddler  ,  araminta  was  a  very  precocious  child  ,  picking  up  on  skills  quite  quickly  and  speaking  in  few  short  sentences  by  the  time  she  was  eleven  months  old  .  as  she  grew  older  ,  jimin’s  parents  remained  hands  on  despite  their  busy  schedules  ,  and  decided  that  they  would  see  what  their  daughter  would  have  the  most  interest  in  .  when  she  was  four  ,  her  parents  began  piano  lessons  ,  and  it  was  evident  that  she  had  a  natural  gift  for  the  instrument  .

            life  for  jimin  had  always  been  comfortable  ,  but  she  didn’t  want  to  take  the  usual  route  ,  or  what  was  expected  of  her  .  she  had  always  been  interested  in  music  ,  so  she  she  originally  started  with  taking  dance  classes  .  she  trained  in  all  forms  of  dance  in  order  to  be  well  rounded  ,  and  she  initially  had  dreams  of  becoming  a  backup  dancer  ,  but  when  she  was  playing  around  and  decided  to  make  a  video  singing  a  song  that  she  had  written  all  on  her  own  ,  jimin  became  an  overnight  sensation  .  her  song  ,  hotter  than  hell  ,  blew  up  almost  instantly  and  she  was  signed  to  warner  music  group  .  

            i’ve  written  enough  VCJNXVBHCV  but  her  career  has  followed  the  timeline  of  dua’s  ,  although  it’s  slightly  off  by  maybe  the  month  or  the  year  .   she  has  won  a  total  of  forty - two  awards  in  her  career  ,  including  two  grammy  awards  and  three  brit  awards  .  although  miss  dua  got  a  lil  clowned  for  her  dancing  at  one  point  ,  i  must  say  that  jimin  is  quite  the  performer  ,  and  definitely  makes  use  of  the  stages  by  recreating  music  videos  or  simply  giving  the  audience  an  experience  .  she  has  not  released  future  nostalgia  as  of  yet  ,  but  it’s  what  she’s  currently  working  towards  !  through  her  career  ,  she  is  known  by  her  mononym  jimin  !

ii.  temperament  .

jimin  is  a  real  bitch  ,  but  she  doesn’t  go  out  of  her  way  to  ‘  out  bitch  ’  someone  because  she  finds  it  to  be  kinda  dumb  .  she’s  primarily  looking  to  have  fun  ,  and  no  one  is  about  to  be  bitchy  around  her  without  getting  snatched  up  .

she  parties  like  she  just  turned  twenty - one  and  dares  someone  to  say  something  about  it  !  invite  her  to  the  club  and  she’s  coming  without  a  second  thought  .  she’s  the  friend  who  will  make  plans  and  will  get  a  little  sad  when  people  cancel  on  her  ,  but  she’s  still  going  to  find  a  way  to  enjoy  herself  .

does  not  take  authority  seriously  and  she  can  be  seen  making  a  jerking  off  motion  whenever  someone  kisses  up  to  those  of  authority  .  talks  shit  ,  but  backs  it  up  because  if  you’re  bold  enough  to  talk  shit  you  might  get  hit  ,  right  ?  

she’s  a  sultry  bitch  and  she  loves  it  .  give  her  the  chance  and  she’ll  flirt  with  a  tree  ,  she’ll  flirt  with  a  plant  ,  and  she  might  flirt  with  your  significant  other  .  she  can  get  kinda  lewd  and  will  say  something  really  off - beat  ,  and  honestly  shut  her  up  if  you  do  .

the  epitome  of  a  gen - z  /  millennial  line  straddler  as  she  can’t  walk  past  a  mirror  without  taking  pictures  of  herself  .  sickeningly  vain  as  she  takes  pictures  at  any  chance  she  can  like  after  getting  her  hair  and  makeup  done  or  even  when  she’s  out  and  about  shopping  .    

iii. headcanons  .

jimin  is  quite  chaotic  and  she  does  not  hold  back  from  it !  she’s  a  pot  stirrer  ,  and  she’ll  watch  everything  unfold  as  if  she  wasn’t  the  one  to  start  the  problems  in  the  first  place  .  not  afraid  to  spread  a  rumor  or  putting  a  trolling  instagram  comment  on  one  of  her  posts  on  blast .  she  likes  to  be  petty  ,  but  she  can  back  it  up  ( but  it’s  NOT  fat  enough  😔 )  .  

her  style  is  vastly  different  than  what’s  expected  .  on  stage  ,  i  would  think  her  style  is  something  akin  to  kpop  stage  outfits  ,  but  not  necessarily  as  tame  .  she’s  not  afraid  to  show  skin  so  there’s  a  lot  of  embellished  leotards  and  heels  ,  dramatic  eye  makeup  and  perfectly  styled  hair  .  off  stage  ,  she  likes  a  relaxed  but  high - end  style  .  lots  of  denim  ,  lots  of  black  ,  loves  oversized  pieces  ,  but  she  loves  to  follow  trends  where  she  can  .

loves  to  yoga  ,  pilates  ,  and  anything  else  that  doesn’t  involve  having  to  go  to  an  actual  gym  .  she  especially love aerial  yoga  as  it  keeps  her  flexible  as  a  dancer  .

miss  jennie  didn’t  let  us  enjoy  it  long  enough  ,  but  jimin’s  hair  is  canon  to  jennie’s  blonde  pieces  ! she’ll  switch  up  the  color  every  so  often  with  temporary  dyes  ,  but  other  than  that  ,  it’s  usually  always  blonde  !

she  doesn’t  drink  st*rbucks  so  don’t  ask  her  to  go  ,  and  she  especially  doesn’t  go  because  she  likes  very  simple  coffee  drinks  .

iv.  wanted  connections  .

give  me  everything  ,  please  !  i’d  love  some  of  the  basics  like  former  friends  ,  best  friends  ,  industry  rivals  ,  friends  with  benefits  ,  confidant(s)  ,  frenemies  ,  good / bad  influences  ,  one  night  stand(s)  ,  enemies  with  benefits  ,  or  a  current  or  ex  fling  !

because  i  love  my  women  loving  women  ,  hand  over  the  ex  girlfriend  !  in  my  head  i’m  thinking  that  they  were  a  really  happy  couple  and  they  were  really  good  to  one  another  ,  but  they  drifted  apart  .  they  remain  good  friends  and  people  probably  think  there’s  still  feelings  because  they  can  be  rather  touchy  feely  with  one  another  (  👀 )  .

ifykyk  ....  but  i  love  angst  !  i  love  to  have  my  heart  ripped  right  out  of  my  chest  so  give  me  angst  in  any  form  :  angsty  friends ,  exes  ,  anything  !  

a  couple  who  are  stuck  in  a  limbo  !  they  have  yet  to  make  it  past  the  point  of  friends  ,   wondering  if  they’re  just  a  hookup  to  one  another  would  there  could  potentially  be  more  .  they  probably  fight  a  lot  because  of  those  underlying  feelings  ,  but  it  could  be  interesting  to  explore  either  way  !

give  me  enemies  !  and  not  for  fake  but  two  people  who  genuinely  dislike  one  another  .  it’s  not  surprising  for  jimin  to  not  get  along  with  a  lot  of  people  considering  the  fact  that  she’s  not  ...  the  nicest  ,  and  i’m  not  entirely  sure  as  to  why  they’d  dislike  each  other  ,  but  it  could  be  so  much  thank  u  KFJDFDS  .

give  me  the  heartbreak  that  still  lingers  i  will  sell  you  my  SOUL  .  maybe  their  relationship  was  good  ,  or  it  was  a  mess  KNFJD  ,  but  but  when  they  broke  up  they  haven’t  fully  gotten  over  it  yet  ?  probably  a  lot  of  lingering  looks  ,  and  giving  compliments  but  they’re  kinda  awkward  because  they  don’t  know  how  to  approach  each  other  sometimes  .

Page 1: Chrishell Stause has found her knight in shining armor Keo Motsepe -- she was smitten with the Dancing With the Stars pro from the beginning of rehearsals and people noticed the flirty exchanges going on -- fans are just happy Chrishell has found happiness after she was blindsided by ex Justin Hartley in 2019 

Page 2: Contents, Ryan Seacrest 

Page 4: Kelly Clarkson has been awarded primary custody of her kids River Rose and Remington in her divorce from Brandon Blackstock and though she emerged victorious in that battle she may not be so lucky when it comes to her finances because Brandon is requesting a whopping $436K a month in spousal and child support and he maintains he needs the settlement to be a fair reflection of what he’s entitled to

Page 5: Prince William and Duchess Kate Middleton have recently implemented a stern policy limiting the time their children Prince George and Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis spend watching TV and playing video games and using their iPads -- the changes come on the heels of lockdown fatigue and like so many parents Will and Kate relaxed their families’ typical day-to-day routines in order to keep their kids entertained as they spent an unprecedented amount of time at home and as a result the kids enjoyed lazy time and free reign with gadgets -- but now Kate’s since created an at-home rewards program where the trio must earn time on devices by completing productive tasks and even then there’s a three-hour cap on electronics and laying down an iron fist seems to have worked because the kids have become Kensington Palace’s most eager little helpers 

* Despite his tarnished reputation Matt Lauer is still hoping to be the new face of Jeopardy! -- the disgraced TV anchor has asked his former colleagues to put in a good word for him as producers mull over host options following Alex Trebek’s death -- Matt was previously considered a top contender to replace Alex in 2013 when the host was considering retirement at the time but that was before Matt was fired from the Today show after being accused of sexual harassment by multiple women in 2017 and three years hasn’t been long enough to rehab his image

Page 6: He’s one of Hollywood’s most celebrated actors but there’s still one role George Clooney is getting used to: being a dad -- the 59-year-old opened up about the challenges of becoming a father later in life to twins Ella and Alexander with wife Amal Clooney but all jokes aside George couldn’t be more thrilled about being a family man and his age has only made him appreciate the little moments even more

* Heather Gay is paving her own path on The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City -- as a self-proclaimed good Mormon gone bad, she balances motherhood and friendships and her career all while dealing with the pressures of being a member of a strict church -- the mother of three is also looking for love and she knows exactly what she wants in future flames even if it conflicts with her religious group’s beliefs: she dates inappropriate and wild and really young men but there’s one caveat: Mormons are off the menu 

* Star Spots the Stars -- Kim Kardashian West, Malin Akerman, Isla Fisher, Ashley Benson, Vanessa Hudgens, Josephine Skriver and Jasmine Tookes, Teresa Giudice

Page 24: It should have been a time for celebrating when Tristan Thompson signed a two-year $19 million contract with the Boston Celtics but Khloe Kardashian wasn’t congratulating him because she is heartbroken her boyfriend has to leave her and their daughter behind to move across the country and with good reason: the two gave their relationship another shot earlier this year after splitting in 2018 amid Tristan’s cheating scandal -- although Khloe had previously relocated to Ohio for Tristan’s career this time she plans to stay put in L.A. near her family and she’s insisting they’ll make their long-distance love affair work but everyone thinks it’s a bad idea given Tristan’s indiscretions 

Page 25: Matthew Perry is engaged to Molly Hurwitz -- the two who began dating in 2018 briefly split up in May but they rekindled the romance months later and decided to make it official because they couldn’t stand to be apart -- they’re planning an intimate beach wedding in Malibu which will likely be a booze-free bash as a nod toward’s Matthew’s sobriety -- though the date is still up in the air amid lockdown restrictions the couple have already finalized a guest list which of course includes Matthew’s Friends costars 

* Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas fell in love on set of Deep Water in 2019 but now the film is driving a wedge between them -- the erotic thriller has been deemed too violent for audiences so as a result the couple are back on location in New Orleans reshooting scenes and the extra one-on-one time has proven to be too much for Ana who’s eager to move on to other projects and Ana enjoys her own space a lot more than being by Ben’s side 24/7 -- meanwhile Ben is hell-bent on making sure Deep Water is a success so it doesn’t turn into another Gigli which is the 2003 flop he starred in with then-girlfriend Jennifer Lopez -- the film isn’t the only thing in limbo as Ben and Ana are beginning to crack amid rising tensions and a demanding film schedule and this has been the biggest test of their relationship for sure 

Page 30: Mary-Kate Olsen’s divorce gets nasty -- tensions flare between Mary-Kate and Olivier Sarkozy as they face off in an epic battle over shared property -- the former couple is duking it out in court over an 8000-square-foot NYC townhouse which they renovated to the tune of $3 million

Lenovo ThinkBook 15-IIL – The Best Thinkbook or Not

Lenovo is arguably the most affordable brand that offers laptops and PCs to a wide range of customers. The company manufactures devices under several series, including Miix, Yoga, IdeaPad, V series and other lineups. However, none of these lines is more popular among users than the Lenovo Thinkbook series. This is a series which overlaps in between mainstream and business laptops, offering the best features.  

Lenovo Thinkbook series laptops are real workhorses that carry high-end specs in aesthetically designed chassis. Today, we are reviewing Lenovo ThinkBook 15-IIL, which is a new addition to this line. Lenovo claims that this is a device that can deliver in terms of performance and packs serious power.

Let’s see what it has got and whether it is really the best ThinkBook on the market right now. We have tested and evaluated its performance in the real world to assess and weaknesses. Continue to read if you want to know what the ThinkBook 15-IIL has to offer.

Specs sheet

Processor: Intel Quad-Core (10th Gen.) i7-1065G7 / 1.3GHz Max. Turbo Speed 3.9GHz  

Display: 15.6-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) Resolution

RAM: 16GB Storage: 512GB HDD

Graphics: Intel Iris Plus Integrated

Battery: 45Wh

Weight: Around 3.75lbs (1.7kg)

Operating System: Windows 10 Pro (64-bit)

On the paper, Lenovo ThinkBook 15-IIL has got some amazing specs as a modern business laptop. A core i7 CPU, high memory and Iris Plus CPU make a powerful combination together. But, can it accomplish tough tasks and satisfy the high-end needs of professionals? This is a question that we are going to answer at the end of this review.

Design

The chassis and design of Lenovo ThinkBook 15 is somewhat identical to the IdeaPad series. Surprisingly, Lenovo only offers it in a grey finish which is elegantly stylish. Its body is made of plastic and aluminium, which we think is to provide strength while keeping the price on the lower side.

The base is made of quality plastic material, whereas the outer surface (lid) is made of aluminium which extends to the keyboard deck. Overall, we found its design to be stable and durable that can withstand unfortunate mishaps. We were unable to lift its lid with a single hand due to metal material. On the back panel, Lenovo has designed a ventilation grill for hot air passage.  

The webcam on the top of the display has a physical shutter for additional privacy. It is to safeguard your important data from hackers and you’ll know when the camera is off. The ThinkBook 15 has a thinner profile of 18.9mm with a weight of about 3.75lbs (1.7kg).

Keyboard

Lenovo laptops are known for their excellent keyboards and typing performance. The same goes for the ThinkBook 15, which features a decent keyboard with appropriate keys. The key travel is pleasing and it delivers minimal clicky feedback that doesn’t sound bad. Additionally, it has a backlight feature that you can turn on/off depending on the light situation.

A minor error that we found in this keyboard is the distance between arrow keys. Up and Down keys on this keyboard are adjacent to each other and there’s very little space between them. Also, it lacks the right-click button as well as the screen print key which might irritate you if you are associated with an administration role.

Touchpad

The touchpad on Lenovo ThinkBook 15 is remarkable and offers an impressive response to commands. The texture is smooth and provides a pleasant resistance when you glide fingers on the surface. It also supports multi-finger touch gestures that you can activate from the settings.

Display

Lenovo ThinkBook 15-IIL is a large screen business laptop with a15.6-inch wide diagonal display. It features an FHD screen that comes with a 1080p resolution and 142ppi pixel density. The pitch on this display is 0.18х0.18mm, while the screen ratio is 16:9 to be precise and at a distance of 24-inch, its screen becomes Retina.

With an average brightness of around 273 nits, we found its performance satisfactory. We tested the display by playing “The Witcher” and streaming “The Last Kingdom.” It delivered crisp images with bright colours and we didn’t notice any stuttering. The display offer great results when we ran office programs, browsed the internet and streamed Netflix series.  

Connectivity

The availability of a wide array of ports on Lenovo ThinkBook 15-IIL is another best thing. You would find the port selection to be satisfactory and pleasing as a business user and professional. Its left side houses an Ethernet (RJ45) port, a 3.5mm audio jack and an HDMI output along with a USB 3.1 Gen. 1 port and another Type-C USB 3.1 Gen. 1 port. Plus, there is a Type-C USB 3.1 Gen. 2 port which works as a DisplayPort and can also be used as a PowerDelivery port.

Additionally, there is a Type-A USB 2.0 port and a Type-A 3.1 USB port on the right side of the ThinkBook 15-IIL. Lenovo has also added a Kensington lock slot as well as a full-size card reader (4-in-1) for additional support.

Performance

Lenovo ThinBook 15-IIL features one of the fastest CPU that you would get on the market. This is a 10 the generation 15 Watt i7 processor that runs on the Windows 10 Pro OS. It can deliver a clock speed range from 1.3GHz to 3.9GHz, thanks to its Hyper-Threading.

Other major components include a massive 16GB RAM that works together with the Intel Iris Plus GPU and its 512GB HDD storage drive. Considering its price, the laptop has a powerful combination of hardware that can take on even the toughest tasks. We evaluated its performance in the real world by running media software, office programs and browsing.

The ThinBook 15-IIL didn’t show any kind of lags and we were able to extract about 7 hours of battery life. Thanks to the i7 processor and 16GB RAM, the laptop didn’t hold back during multitasking. It is a workhorse that can assist you in programming and media editing without any glitches.  

Is this the best ThinkBook?

After reviewing its performance, we can argue that Lenovo ThinBook 15-IIL is the best ThinkBook that you can get on the market. Its 10th generation i16GB 7 processor, Intel Iris Plus GPU, 16GB memory and Windows 10 Pro OS make it a fine choice.

From capturing unstaged moments to choosing colours that 'pop' on camera, experts reveal the clever tricks Kate uses when taking snaps of her children (and say she's definitely improved over time)

Kate Middleton, 37, shared three snaps of Louis yesterday to mark first birthday She previously described herself as an 'enthusiastic amateur photographer' In 2015 Kate shared the first non-professional official photograph of a royal baby Professional photographers Bronwen Sharpe and Jaimie Harris discuss her skills Duchess has 'natural ability to capture humanity and great eye for composition'

Kate Middleton will reportedly take a more hands on approach to the royal social media account sharing more of her photographs on the Instagram page Whenever there's a special occasion in the Cambridge family calendar, royal fans are now accustomed to being treated to an adorable photograph of the children - usually taken by their mother. Yesterday, to mark the first birthday of her youngest son, Kate Middleton shared three stunning portraits of Prince Louis, taken in the garden at their home in Norfolk. The Duchess of Cambridge, who has previously described herself an 'enthusiastic amateur photographer', has demonstrated considerable skill behind the camera over the years - with rumours she's set to take over the KensingtonRoyal Instagram page.

The royal has been spotted clutching her camera on several royal visits including this one to Charlottetown Canada in So what's her secret? What clever techniques does she employ to make these simple pictures of her children so captivating? London-based award-winning photographer Bronwen Sharpe puts it down to Kate's natural ability to capture 'authentic unstaged moments' - and the fact she chooses her own children as her subjects. She told FEMAIL: 'No other photographer would be able to capture the same connection she has with her children. There is a real warmth and love that is present in her work. 'She has a natural ability to capture humanity with a great eye for composition and colour.'

Kate became the first member of the royal family to take the first official photographs of a royal baby back in Her use of colour is also praised by paparazzi photographer Jaimie Harris. 'She always puts them in bright outfits which make a photo pop,' she explained. 'I think she's definitely improved since her first George and Charlotte photos, she's now experimenting with different light by venturing outside into the garden.' Hands-on parent Kate became the first member of the royal family to take the first official photographs of a royal baby back in 2015, when she released her snaps of newborn Charlotte in the arms of her big brother Prince George.

No other photographer would be able to capture the same connection she has with her children There is a real warmth and love that is present in her work She then she has captured several official photographs of George, five, Charlotte, three, and Louis, one, to mark important family milestones. Royal fans often wait in trepidation for the pictures, which typically capture their subjects looking natural and relaxed. Bronwen said the real strength of her recent work is in the way she 'captures joy and real moments in her subjects' expressions'. 'Kate has a great ability to frame and capture unstaged moments. She has an intuitive eye for colour, composition and light, often placing her subjects in soft lighting,' she explained.

Kate has a natural ability to capture humanity with a great eye for composition and colour according to Bronwen Pictured is Princess Charlotte 'She composes her pictures with clarity and balance, with no distracting elements in the background - evident in the recent pictures of Louis and of Charlotte on her second birthday. 'Kate has a great ability to create wonderful out of focus backgrounds using limited depth of field. She had mastered the use of natural light, so I would like to see her try to introduce studio lights in combination with natural light.'

Bronwen told how Kate has a natural ability to capture humanity with a great eye for composition and colour Jaimie told how Kate always ensures her children's faces are the main focus of her pictures and sometimes sacrifices good framing. 'In a few shots of George and Charlotte, she has cut off their hands or only has one of their hands in the shot, she said. 'I think she just makes sure the faces are in focus. If she took more full length photos, she could crop in after to make sure her framing is more on point, without chopping off body parts.'

Kates use of colour is praised by paparazzi photographer Jaimie Harris who told how the Duchess uses bright outfits to make the photos pop The Duchess's passion for photography dates back to before she became a member of The Firm. Her official profile on the British Monarchy's website includes a list of hobbies which features 'photography and painting', and explains: 'The Duchess's enthusiasm for photography saw her taking photographs as part of her role during her time working within Party Pieces, a family company owned and run by her parents.'

In this picture of Princess Charlotte on her first day at nursery in January Bronwen told how Kate composed the picture with clarity and balance Kate has showcased an artistic flare since her teens, having studied art history at the University of St. Andrews, where she met Prince William. She produced her undergraduate thesis on the era of photography - in particular, photographs of children. As the patron for the National Portrait Gallery in London, last year Kate opened its Victorian Giants: The Birth of Art Photography exhibition, and penned the foreword to its catalogue, in which she discussed her passion for the medium.

image a _ The show explored the 'birth of art photography in England' and much of its work was dedicated to photographs of children. 'Children held a special place in the Victorian imagination and were celebrated for their seemingly boundless potential,' Kate wrote in the foreward. 'This notion still rings true for us today and it underpins much of my official work and the charities I have chosen to support, and, indeed, my role as a young mother.'

Jaimie told how Kate always ensures her childrens faces are the main focus of her pictures and sometimes sacrifices good framing Speaking about her own passion for photography, she went on: 'As a student at the University of St. Andrews, I chose it as the subject of my undergraduate thesis and photographs of children in particular, which feature prominently in the exhibition, are of real interest to me.' Her prowess behind the camera was marked officially in 2017, when she was named an honorary member of the Royal Photographic Society, with its chief executive Dr Michael Pritchard FRPS commending her 'talent' and 'long-standing interest in photography and its history'. Kate's most recent photographs of Prince Louis were shot at Anmer Hall, a Georgian country house in the village of Anmer in Norfolk, where the Cambridges reside when they're not at Kensington Palace.

Another colourful shot this time of Prince George on his first day at the Westacre Montessori nursery school near Sandringham in Norfolk Could Kate be taking over the KensingtonRoyal Instagram account? The royal has been spotted clutching her camera on several royal visits, including this one to Charlottetown, Canada in 2011 The royal has been spotted clutching her camera on several royal visits, including this one to Charlottetown, Canada in 2011 Over the past few years the mother-of-three has shared a number of stunning images of Prince George, five, Princess Charlotte, three, and Prince Louis, one.

Jaimie told how Kates priority is making sure the childrens faces are in focus as in this shot of Prince Louis as a baby in April But now it seems the Duchess is set to step up her Instagram game, as sources say she will 'share more of her photos over the months ahead' on the KensingtonRoyal Instagram account. This follows rumours that her sister-in-law Meghan Markle, 37, is controlling the SussexRoyal account.

Kates prowess behind the camera was marked officially in when she was named an honorary member of the Royal Photographic Society Eagle-eyed royal watchers have recently been analysing captions on the new @SussexRoyal Instagram account, deducing that they have been written by Meghan Markle. Fans have been quick to spot Americanised spellings, as well as dollar signs and American English in the posts, and claim this points to a US native writing them. Several posts use the US spelling of 'organization', rather than 'organisation', and 'programs' rather than 'programmes'.

Bronwen said the real strength of Kates recent work is in the way she captures joy and real moments in her subjects expressions It's prompted speculation that Kate could soon be following suit, if this is indeed the case, to post a broader range of pictures in the coming months. A source told Harper's Bazaar that Kate is 'looking forward to sharing more of her photos over the months ahead - including on the @KensingtonRoyal Instagram account.' Before she began dating Prince Harry, 34, Meghan amassed millions of followers on social media and loved interacting with her fans. The former Suits star often posted pictures of her doing yoga, cuddling her dogs and enjoying a glass of wine on her Instagram account. In January last year when she shut down her profile, Meghan released a statement via Kensington Palace, saying she was 'grateful to everyone who has followed her social media accounts over the years'. Unlike Prince Harry or Meghan Markle, who have both reportedly had 'secret' social media accounts, Kate has generally stayed clear. It has been rumoured in the past that Kate has an Mumsnet account in order to swap parenting tips with other mothers. Source: DAILYMAIL MAILONLINE Read the full article

Are these the best gyms around the world for design buffs in 2018

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

By Wallpaper

Ever wondered where the design-minded go to relax, work-out and punch things? It turns out they’ve got quite the option list – stylish concept gyms are getting pulses racing everywhere.

But which are truly inspirational? London to Los Angeles, here’s all you need to know about the world’s best gyms, from shadowboxing in New York City, to stretching out in Singapore...

Equinox Fitness has been around since the early Nineties, but the performative health culture of social media has certainly given the luxury company (which also owns Soul Cycle and Pure Yoga) a boost. Equinox Kensington is the first branch of the gym to open outside of the United States, and – as in other cities – it occupies prime real estate. It’s organised around the art deco dome of the historic Derry & Toms building, a seven-storey department store fixture of 1930s Kensington. The building gained even more notoriety in the Seventies when it was taken over by Biba, which drove many of the decade’s most beloved fashion palettes and silhouettes. Today, wrought-iron deco windows illuminate yoga studios and all the best of the space has been preserved. 5th floor, The Roof Gardens, Kensington High Street, London W8 5SA

Launched as a sister club to luxury British fitness brand Third Space, Another_Space is a stylish, light-filled work-out zone in the heart of Covent Garden. London-based Goldstein Ween Architects were enlisted to create the breezy, loft-like interiors, conjuring a pared-back palette of warm wood flooring, sweeping skylights, marble basins and plenty of soothing greenery. Helmed by Colin Waggett, founder of Psycle and CEO of Third Space, Another_Space brings together the golden trinity of fitness in the form of yoga, cycle and boxing-based HIIT studios, sure to attract the most serious of gym-goers looking to work on cardio, flexibility, strength and conditioning training. 4-10 Tower St, Covent Garden, London WC2H 9NP

1Rebel’s first boutique gym at London’s St Mary’s Axe was designed by Studio C102 to woo fitness lovers frustrated with the current gym model. Pay as you go? Check. Music you actually want to workout to? Check. And did we mention the chilled towels? Industrial architecture at every turn exudes the philosophy that it’s about pushing limits, not looking pretty. Copper piping snakes up the changing room walls and the gym’s personalised playlists pump throughout. 63 St Mary Axe, London EC3A 8LE

One Hot Yoga in Melbourne is the creation of husband-and-wife team, architect Robert Mills and yogi Lucinda Mills. It’s no wonder the space is extremely design-driven in addition to emphasising environmental wellness. The studio is especially proud of the architectural features that lower its carbon footprint. A custom water-heating system uses ‘one third of the energy [compared to] commonly-used electric heat systems and is one third as costly to run.’ Shower and cleaning products at the studio are all organic. 36 River Street, South Yarra VIC 3141, Australia

Former fashion stylist Karen Lord has created an eponymous pilates studio in NYC’s Tribeca. The space reflects the serenity that seduced Lord out of her previous hectic lifestyle. Unsurprisingly, the minimally branded program has drawn loyal fans from among the fashion set. The studio store stocks wellness goodies, like BKR water bottles and Sandoval aromatherapy spray. 137 Duane St, New York, NY 10013, USA

While living in a penthouse may be just an aspiration, working out in a penthouse doesn’t have to be at Pure Yoga Shanghai, which is set atop the IAPM mall. After enjoying city views, yogis can breeze through the likes of Miu Miu and Muji on their way out. Pure Yoga began in Hong Kong and has since spread across Asia and been exported as far as New York. Its Shanghai outpost uses clean lines and soft lighting to create a calming space that echoes the brand’s commitment to body and mind. 999 Huaihai Middle Rd, Xuhui Qu, Shanghai Shi, China

BLOK Shoreditch is designed by Daytrip Studio (Iwan Halstead and Emily Potter) and lighting design studio There’s Light. The latter have made the whole space feel like one, long corridor animated by light, colour and reflections, which mingle with the smell of coffee and Malin & Goetz bespoke products, alongside photography by Oppenheim and installations by Ben Cullen Williams. The designers have used a combination of materials (concrete, glass, steel, wood and fabric) to create contrasts between hard and soft surfaces, light and shadow; illustrating the divide between the hectic London urban environment and the relaxing energy of the practice rooms. The Tram Depot 38-40 Upper Clapton Rd, London E5 8BQ

Virgin Active gyms cite being a ‘force for good’ as one of their main principles. Despite the luxury quality of their offerings, they also began the affordable Virgin Active RED gym model in South Africa, where they hope to attract and benefit the growing middle class. At Virgin Active’s Singapore location, the Relax & Recovery Zone is a huge draw. Despite the delights of foot soaking and steam, the real highlight might be the glowing, pink wonder of the Himalayan Salt Inhalation room. Raffles Place, #06-61, Tower 2, 1 Raffles Place, Singapore 048616

Soho House Chicago is housed in a historic early 20th-century belting factory, and its 17,000 sq ft gym is no exception to the club’s preserved industrial loft aesthetic. Appropriately, the last tannery in the city designed the leather boxing equipment. When the season’s right, don’t forget to check out the beloved hotel rooftop and bar and treat yourself to a post-cardio cocktail. 113 N Green St, Chicago, IL 60607, USA

Local firm Lab100 are behind Kuwait’s most stylish boxing gym. The Burrow puts their boxing ring theatrically at the centre of the action. Skylights ensure that the space becomes even more dramatic at night. It was the first studio of its kind in the region. Photography: Nelson Garrido. Jaber Al Malik Al Sabah St, Kuwait

Boutique boxing gym Shadowbox is a sleek alternative to the gritty stereotype of the sport. The luxury facility, started in NYC’s Flatiron, has been so popular it’s opening a Brooklyn branch next. ‘We found that clients will form lines out the door if you distil the very best of boxing into a 45-minute workout incorporating rounds of heavy bag work, thumping curated music and a welcoming ambience,’ says founder Daniel Glazer, who trained with professional fighters. In addition to the club-like grid of boxing bags is a vintage-style boxing ring in rope, wood and canvas. All of which were designed in-house. 28 W 20th Street, New York, NY 10011, USA

Designed by Rabih Geha Architects, U Energy gym in Lebanon encourages connection and interaction – the 1200 sq m space is completely open, divided only by structural concrete pillars. Underground, atmospheric, high energy; the gym features skylights to allow beams of light from above, while neon lighting taps into the ‘gym-cum-club’ trend gripping fitness fanatics everywhere. The lighting does more than make the space look ‘trendy’, however. The architects argue that ‘light travels through neurological pathways and affects the pineal gland in the brain’. Green has a healing effect and boosts satisfaction, which (apparently) can make your workouts more enjoyable. Red can invigorate you, adding zest to keep-fit sessions. While the colour blue can actually increase productivity; research shows weightlifters can lift more in blue rooms. Hazmieh, Lebanon
