Sex After My Divorce Was a Chance to Explore All My Fantasies
Sex After
Sex had been absent from my marriage for so long that I'd started to wonder about my sexuality.
By Jackie Bryant

My feverish googling started sometime during 2017.
"How to know if you're a lesbian."
"Discovering you're gay while in a heterosexual marriage."
"What does asexual mean?"
I was about a year into a sexual dry spell, which also happened to coincide with years three and four of my heterosexual marriage. I couldn't figure out why my sex drive had completely dried up, despite being just 32 years old. Weren't women supposed to reach their sexual peak in their 30s? I loved my husband. I'd had a varied and active sex life, exclusively with men, before I met him. But now I didn't want to have sex with anyone—including my husband—and I couldn't figure out why. At some point, understandably, he stopped wanting to have sex with me too.
My thoughts became more desperate as I watched friends around me forming new relationships or making children in established ones. I was depressed, my marriage was rapidly deteriorating, and I had to face the obvious: We likely weren't in love with each other nor attracted to each other anymore, which would mean our whole lives would have to change. That was a terrifyingly painful thought to accept, so for months I looked for other explanations—like wondering whether I was a closeted lesbian or maybe even asexual.
In early 2018, when the obvious became too clear to ignore any longer, my marriage ended for good.
Suddenly I was newly single at age 32. In the six years I'd been out of the dating market, the landscape had changed drastically. Dating apps, which had become ubiquitous among single people I knew in my city, didn't even exist the last time I was rolling solo. Add to that the fact that I had been celibate now for two years, in a sex desert so dry I was questioning my sexuality and my mental health. I was downright terrified to jump back into the proverbial pond.
Soon after, I was seated next to a man at a dinner party who immediately caught my attention. He was brooding, funny, sarcastic, and incredibly intense. He wanted to know everything about me, told me he thought I was pretty, and eventually asked for my number. When we met up for a date, I felt for the first time in years like my old sexual self, turning on the charm and sarcasm, and at some point letting it slip that I thought he should come back to my apartment. A couple of bottles of wine later, I announced that I would be sleeping in my bed and he in the adjacent guest bedroom, still feeling skittish about the idea of having sex.
He grabbed me by the waist kissed me deeply—the first time anyone had done so in years. At first I tensed, startled by the touch. But my reservations melted as his hands wandered over my body. After 10 hot minutes of making out, I scurried into my bed alone, giddy like a preteen girl who'd just had her first kiss and terrified like, well, a recent divorcee who hadn't been touched in a very long time. Underneath all of the weirdness and terror, I also felt something powerful: desire.
Two weeks later we met again and had sex for the first time. At first it was scary, but he was a passionate and intense partner. That began a three-month-long affair of intimate sex, and countless nights talking until the sun came up. Turns out I wasn't asexual after all. But that doesn't mean it was a healthy attachment—we both had serious challenges that we were not properly addressing. We eventually parted ways as friends, but for those few months, he was exactly what I needed. Sexually, I felt alive again. And that made me feel like myself again.
My family and friends noticed an instant change. Multiple people asked, "What the hell happened to you?" marveling at my new, positive attitude. Truthfully, the answer was that I was finally getting laid. I felt beautiful. Wanted. Needed.
Other lingering questions from my celibacy still hung over me like a cloud about to burst into a rainstorm. Was I attracted to women? Should I look into sleeping with multiple partners? I probably need to have a one night stand, right? I had fantasized about all of the former over the years—my pornography preferences often included women over men and sometimes involved group sex. The universe had given me unexpected singledom, I reasoned. The chance to explore other sides of my sexuality had arrived.
Shortly after, I reconnected with an old friend while on a trip for work. Toward the end of the trip, she and a man she had been seeing ended up with me and a bottle of whiskey in a hot tub, winding down from a hurried week of meetings.
Over the course of our conversation, they had been inching closer towards each other. At some point she lifted her hand and beckoned towards me, inviting me to their corner of the whirlpool. I thought, Why not? and floated over. I remember feeling someone's hands—I couldn't tell whose—making their way up my thighs and between my legs. Soon we were a mess of hands and limbs, kissing each other and casually passing the bottle around. We ended up back in my hotel room, where my friend and I mainly had sex—my first time with a woman—while her date mostly watched. After she and I finished, I asked him to have sex with just me. I realized in that moment that while I appreciated and enjoyed having sex with a woman, at the end of the day, it's men that really get me going.
That encounter ended a years-long question about my sexuality—I enjoyed having sex with women but I only wanted to date men.
Not long after, I met the man who would become my first serious boyfriend since my divorce. This brought up a fear I hadn't yet tackled: the thought that deep down I was afraid of intimacy. I wondered if I had lost my sexual appetite for my ex-husband precisely because we were so emotionally close—was I just too mentally shattered to have a healthy sex life within an intimate relationship?
As the months with my new boyfriend wore on, it became clear that we were building a killer sexual connection. I remember one time during sex giggling and laughing into each others' bodies, whispering with limited breath how much fun we were having. Our sex was on point—so satisfying, excited, and connected. It only got better over time as our emotional and physical connection deepened.
There were normal issues in the relationship: He hadn't been in a serious one in years, for his own reasons, and clearly I had baggage of my own. But I finally knew that I wasn't afraid to get intimate. I learned it was possible for me to be vulnerable and open with my emotions while also opening up sexually.
In the past year and a half, I went from a sexually confused celibate wife to a curious, pleasure-seeking and liberated woman having the best sex of my life. I have learned more about myself during this time than I did in the over 10 years of being sexually active before I got married. The opportunity to have this second chance to reexplore and redefine healthy sexuality for myself—to finally accept and celebrate the fact that I am a deeply sexual person—is an unexpected gift I never could have imagined during the initial fog and pain of divorce. It's a gift I know I'll carry with me no matter what twists and turns life continues to throw my way.

From the moment we decided we wanted to have a winter wedding, Stephen and I knew the perfect destination would be Park City, where we went on our first trip together. Moments before our closest family and friends made their way to the St. Regis Deer Valley's terrace for the ceremony, snow began to fall. We felt like we married inside a magical snow globe, surrounded by Deer Valley's mountainscape and ski town. We threw a party brunch reception following the ceremony and, as always, the St. Regis delivered an impeccable experience. It is a memory we will look back fondly on for the rest of our lives, and thank our friends and family for travelling far and wide to share in our special day!

Zadar: Where Ancient Meets Modern
The old town of Zadar has enough things to keep one engaged throughout the day. But despite the abundance of ancient and medieval structures, we found amiss with the town. It just did not have the charm of Istrian towns like Rovinj, Poreč, Grožnjan and Hum. These towns, with their narrow cobblestone streets and stone buildings, had the air of a medieval museum. This ambience was exactly what Zadar lacked. Often, right next to a medieval church there would be a modern bank or an ugly residential complex which diminished the beauty of the church. This mishmash of architecture can be attributed to the haphazard rebuild process carried out after large areas of the city were destroyed by heavy bombing during the World War II and the Croatian War of Independence. In all, Zadar is not the kind of city that would send one 'back in time' and definitely not one that we would want to visit again.
My musings about the sights we had seen in Zadar in the previous two hours and its lack of charm were interrupted by the arrival of our lunch. I don't know what it was with Zadar but even the food we had in Restaurant Skoblar was probably the worst of our entire trip. Anyways, we finished the food and went back to sightseeing.
SOME MORE FORTIFICATIONS
The restaurant was located at the edge of Five Wells Square and that is where we headed to after lunch. This square, as the name suggests, contained five ornamental wellheads which, along with a large water cistern, were built in the 16th century to supply water to the city in case of a siege by the Ottomans. The square was dominated by the 26m high Captain's Tower – the only tower left from the medieval fortress town.
Five Wells Square and Captain's Tower

A gate in the square led to Queen Jelena Madije Park. The park, built in 1829 on top of a large bastion, was the first public park in Dalmatia. Though the park itself was quite average, its main draw is the stunning view it provides of the iconic Land Gate and the Fosa Harbour. Land Gate, built in 1543, was the primary entrance to the old town from the mainland. With three entrances, various crests and other adornments, this was the grandest gate of Zadar. Fosa, which was the moat in the medieval period, is now a small harbour.

By the time we returned to the Five Wells Square from the park, it was just past 3:30 p.m. We had seen most of the major sights and were quite tired since it was a hot day. We decided to go back to our apartment and take a short rest. On our way back, we bought couple of paintings of the town. Even though we are not very fond of the city, those paintings are amazing.

AN EVENING IN ZADAR
At 6 in the evening, we left our apartment to witness the famous sunset of Zadar which was once described as the 'best sunset in the world' by acclaimed movie director Alfred Hitchcock. We crossed the bridge and took the stairs next to the Bridge Gate to have a look at the city from the top of the walls. As we made our way to the seafront, we came across a few more important landmarks of Zadar like the Museum of Ancient Glass and St. Dimitri's Chapel which is a part of Zadar University.

It is said that in the evenings, Zadar seafront is the place to be. As we walked from one end of the seafront to the other while enjoying the mesmeric view of the sea spread out in front of us, it was not hard to see why. Adding to the allure of the azure sea were two modern attractions – one based on sound and other on light – which gave a unique character to the seafront. These attractions, named Sea Organ and Greeting to the Sun, were designed by Croatian architect Nikola Bašić to transform the seafront and make it more attractive.
Sea Organ consists of a series of pipes built under the stone steps on the seafront which produce musical notes by the action of the waves. Despite hundreds of people sitting on those steps, the sound produced by the Sea Organ was quite clear. Even though it was not quite the music that we were expecting, listening to that sound while watching the setting sun was undeniably a rare and wonderful experience.
The Zadar Seafront
The other attraction – Greeting to the Sun – came into the act after the sunset. It is a large disc made up of many glass plates beneath which are thousands of solar panels which absorb sunlight during the day and light up in random colours during the night. When fully lit, it must be a sight to behold but unfortunately, that evening only parts of it were lighting up. We waited for a long time for it to light up completely but when that did not happen even by 8:30 p.m., we left. We picked up dinner from a fast food joint and left the old town by 9:15 p.m.

Thank you for the virtual tour of Zadar! It is a great city to visit no matter what time of the day it is.
Traveltellers says:
Thank you so much Peter.
arv! says:
I guess I'm mistaken, I remember having seen some Roman ruins in the video but I couldn't see any in your post. The gate is definitely impressive. The name Zadar is also not typical Croatian. I guess the wave sound on the seafront exists in other Croatian towns too.
Hey, you are absolutely not mistaken about the Roman ruins. We have actually written two blogs on Zadar and this is the second one. Roman ruins are mentioned in the first one which you can find here: https://traveltellers.blog/2020/08/02/zadar-the-beginning-of-the-dalmatian-coast/
Regarding the sound, perhaps we didn't explain it clearly. It wasn't the sound of waves. They have actually installed underground pipes which produce sound due to the action of waves. You can listen to the sound here:
Shubhojit Roy says:
And I was wondering how could you not mention the Sea Organ.
😀 If someone is writing about Zadar then it is impossible to not mention Sea Organ or Greeting to the Sun. Two unique things in Zadar.
I did listen to the sound as the Gabriel (traveler) has that included in two of his videos. I will check out the other blog. Thanks for the link. 🙂

In May 1977 E G Carter & Co Ltd employed local Site Foreman John Christie, 41 years and 3 recessions later, John is still with the company after delivering over 600 new homes and travelling in excess of 600,000 miles for the Company.
John started with E G Carter & Co Ltd on the 24th May 1977, after previously completing 7 years within the construction industry. When John joined there were around 24 employees, this included office and site-based staff. The office was located in Severn Road, Gloucester with the Managing Director being Brian Carter. The majority of the workload was within Gloucestershire itself and the turnover of the company as a whole a little more than 1 million pounds per annum.
In the 70's and 80's, today's Company Director's Michael and David Carter, were mentored by John on-site and gained first-hand experience with site set up and how sites were run. John offered Michael and David advice about all things construction and guided them through the 103 unit housing scheme based in Kingswood, Bristol.
In 2001 as well as having to learn about new IT technology, John completed his first timber framed housing project. This was a significant change from the usual masonry type construction that E G Carter & Co Ltd had been accustomed. The construction up and to that time had been brick and cavity construction. This now being replaced with the delivery of prefabricated timber panels that were craned into position.
After 41 years John has been able to reflect on his career and the advice that he would give apprentices or anyone joining the construction industry.
Through John's time with E G Carter & Co Ltd he has gone through many good times, gone through 3 recessions, seen the internet go global and many more historic moments, but throughout his career John is most grateful for his family and the commitment from his employer.
When asked if John would do it again his answer was 100%.
Within the next year John will be looking to retire and spend his well-deserved spare time with his family.
41 years ago, E G Carter & Co Ltd had 24 employees turning over £1 million, it now has over 183 employees with a turnover of £70 million. Bring on the next 41 years.

Covid-19 Vaccine Trialled at University of Southampton and UHS
By Imogen Brighty-Potts on	 May 28, 2020 News Science & Technology
City scientists have launched a search for over 600 volunteers to trial a coronavirus vaccine.
Those leading the vaccine programme have said that the initial trial went well, and they are now looking for hundreds more volunteers. There are currently four trials happening around the world.
The vaccine was developed and the programme began at the University of Oxford Jenner Group and Oxford Vaccine Group. The first trial in Southampton involved 160 volunteers between the ages of 18 and 55.
Professor Saul Faust, Professor of Paediatric Immunology and Infectious Diseases at the University of Southampton and Director of the NIHR Southampton Clinical Research Facility at UHS, said
The early stages of the phase I trial have gone very well and we're grateful for the many volunteers from Southampton who have come forward to help us assess the safety of the new vaccine and if healthy people can be protected from COVID-19.
Professor Faust also said:
We would now very much like to invite people from the Southampton area whose work brings them into possible contact with COVID patients or who are healthy and in the older age groups to take part in the next stage of trials of this Oxford COVID vaccine.
The volunteers in this study will receive either the COVID-19 vaccine or the licensed 'control' vaccine against meningitis and sepsis (the conjugate MenACWY vaccine) as comparison.

Dominic From Luton has secured himself a substantial reputation as an innovative artist whose practice takes unexpected twists and turns. At the core of his practice is an intriguing and fascinating relationship with his home town of Luton.
English Man Going Insane is Dominic from Luton's visual love letter to his home town. Uniting the anarchic energy of British contemporary art with a view of the world honed in Luton. It is a journey from the 1970s to the present, a tragi-comic personal history which re-visits some of the most spectacular moments on Dominic's often contradictory journey from small town boy (and fanatical Luton Town supporter) to the global art superstar we know and love today!
An example of Dominic's verbal sophistry is to be found in a work called 'White Pratt from Luton' which is not, as many will assume, a disparaging reference to someone from Luton, but rather a list of the names taking part in a group exhibition that Dominic was part of in 2011.
Treating the storefront as the major art museum it will eventually become, English Man Going Insane might be described as a mid-career retrospective with some new work and some new interpretations of existing work.
Central to the enterprise will be a 'boys own' homage to the glorious day in April 1988 when Luton Town beat Arsenal at Wembley to win the League Cup.
It will also revisit Sunridge Avenue Projects, when Dominic took the opportunity presented by an Arts Council grant to exhibit the work of top international artists at his parents' otherwise unremarkable Luton Semi. What modern visitors to Sunridge Avenue may overlook, as a peculiar and disembodied section of wall in the front garden of number 32, is actually an original work by Turner Prize winning artist Martin Creed. The process of commissioning and producing the Sunridge Avenue project will feature heavily in Dominic's new exhibition English Man Going Insane.
Further reading on Dominic From Luton English Man Going Insane, Departure Lounge at The Storefront.
As You Change So Do I invite you to attend the opening reception of English Man Going Insane.
Dominic From Luton will be in conversation with Curator Matthew Shaul, there will be a special opening for this event, all welcome admission free.
Indulge in this new line of fragrances from Sarah Baker Perfumes while enjoying a unique art installation featuring customised windows and perfume counter.

Wanderful Media Revamps Find&Save With Personalization in Mind
April 12, 2013 April 11, 2013 by Noah Davis
When we last checked in with Wanderful Media, the company financed by $27 million from media companies including Advance Digital, Belo Corp., Community Newspaper Holdings, Cox, Scripps, and Gannett was trying to remake the $4 billion circulars market.
Today, the company continues to chase that market and is launching a revamped version of its Find&Save product that includes discovery mechanisms, list-making features, and plenty of other social concepts. "Consumers expect shopping and circulars to adapt to the way they interact with the world," CEO Ben T. Smith, IV, said in a release. "Find&Save is opening the door for local retailers to connect with their customers in compelling new ways. Our goal is to drive more shoppers into the store, more often."
In a conversation with Street Fight, Smith and Dave Thomsen, EVP of product design, explained the idea further.
"We're building toward a completely personalized experience, like Netflix," Thomsen said. "When you're logged in, you get a unique circular that's customized for you based on what we know about you." In short, Wanderful's new product will understand what you have looked for in the past and show deals you might be interested in now.
One of the key features is the ability to make lists. This was originally not going to be part of the product, but Wanderful designers found that consumers wanted to be able to save deals in one place and send them to a smartphone for viewing. Additionally, other users can see another person's lists, which gives Find&Save more shareability and adds to the "lean back" experience on a tablet.
The company plans to help big brands like Target and Macy's as well as small businesses create, curate, and explain deals through use of all the data they collect. "We can share with retailers so they can get smarter as well," Smith said.
Smith was coy about the number of people using the original Find&Save product, but he said he believes the new launch is the start of something much bigger: "We had a beta product that we evolved from a legacy product. We're continually launching new features on a weekly or biweekly basis, and plan to open firehose on promotion in the coming months."
The key to success, obviously, will be Wanderful's ability to funnel and highlight deals for consumers. If they can successfully show these, people will continue to use the service on a regular basis. The company has high hopes they will succeed in doing so, using the reams of data to suss out the best of what's around. "We can tell people: 'Actually, this really is a great deal,'" Smith said.
If that's in fact the case, Find&Save could be one of the best deals around.

Johnny Sexton to raffle boots from 100th cap in amazing charity gesture
Ireland and Leinster rugby star Johnny Sexton is raffling off the boots he wore during his historic 100th cap in Ireland's 60-5 win over Japan to raise money for charity.
Cash raised by the draw for the size 9.5 Adidas Predator boots will go to Debra Ireland, which the Irish captain has supported for several years.
The organisation helps people living with the skin disease epidermolysis bullosa (EB) and their families, as well as funding research to find treatments and a cure for the condition.
The skin of people with EB blisters at the slightest touch, which means that painful bandaging must be applied at least every 48 hours – and sometimes daily.
Johnny Sexton is raffling the boots he wore during Ireland's 60-5 win over Japan to raise money for Debra Ireland
The 36-year-old said: "My 100th cap was obviously a special day for me and my family and I really want to give something back for all the success and good fortune that I have had in making it this far playing for Ireland.
"The boots have the initials of my wife, Laura, and children, Luca, Amy and Sophie, on them.
"I have been working with Debra Ireland for some years now and I have been inspired by the bravery of those who live with the condition, such as Emma Fogarty and Claudia Scanlon.
"The charity funds support services for people with EB and their families, as well as exciting research into potential treatment and cures, which offers enormous hope to people who live with the condition.
"The researchers are on the cusp of major advances which will have life-changing consequences for people with EB in the coming years, so it's very important that Debra Ireland continues to fund that research."
The charity welcomed the gesture by the rugby international, who has been a Debra ambassador for more than a decade.
"We're delighted that Johnny has decided to use this big moment in his amazing career to raise money for Debra Ireland," said chief executive Jimmy Fearon.
Leinster star Sexton is only the seventh player to notch up a century of appearances for his country and capped the November 6 milestone in style, scoring one of Ireland's nine tries and kicking 11 points at the Aviva Stadium.
He won his first international cap and Man of the Match in the Test against Fiji at the RDS in Dublin on November 21 2009, scoring 16 points from five conversions and two penalty goals in extremely difficult weather conditions.
The raffle opened on Monday evening and will run until Wednesday, December 22, with the winner announced the following day.
Tickets cost €5.

71 Minutes in a Bunker with the President of the United States

By David Cornelius	News
Production Begins on 71 Minutes in a Bunker
Production has begun on our next feature film! 71 Minutes in a Bunker with the President of the United States is the second full length feature from Inhumanwich! writer/director David Cornelius. The story is fairly self explanatory from the title: a group of reporters find themselves locked in an underground bunker with a rather unhinged POTUS and his staff, and things go south from there.
The film will feature the usual Argo crew and star a mix of new and familiar faces, all of whom we'll announce later. The title, meanwhile, is subject to change, depending on just how long the actual movie winds up being after we're finished editing.
Filming is set to begin in late April, following the world premiere of Phratry. Be sure to follow 71 Minutes in a Bunker on Facebook and Twitter for all the latest news.

Located on the north western side of the country, Corfu island has a cosmopolitan feeling combined with a special traditional character. Paleokastritsa, Sidari, Kassiopi and Acharavi are nice tourist places on the northern side of the island, while the inland is dotted with lovely villages and many sightseeings. Apart from the wonderful beaches, the highlight of the island is the Old Town with the characteristic Venetian style. Holidays in Corfu can be combined with other Ionian islands, such as Paxi.

The Boston Celtics, minus Al Horford (rest), and Jaylen Brown (back), imposed their will against the rebuilding Cleveland Cavaliers with a 128-95 win on Friday night. "Gino Time" was back in the TD Garden, and the C's disposed of one of the league's basement dwellers with their biggest blowout of the season. With a matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves less than 24 hours away, an easy win was just what the doctor ordered.
Kyrie Irving led all scorers with 29 points on an efficient 11-15 from the field, including 5-7 from three point range. Six other Celtics players scored in double digits, highlighted by 14 points off the bench from Gordon Hayward and 15 points from Marcus Morris. Jordan Clarkson led Cleveland with 16 points off the bench and newly-acquired Alec Burks had 14 points, six rebounds, and 4 assists.
Take it with a grain of salt considering it was a matchup with the Cavs, but the additions of Marcus Smart and Morris into the starting lineup have given this team a boost for the second game in a row. A team that was repeatedly plagued by slow starts has seemed invigorated with the energy and grit of Smart/Morris. Smart snatched the first pass of the game that Cleveland made, and Morris' versatility and shot making has helped the offensive flow.
Hey, another good start for the Celtics.
After the Celtics jumped out to a 9-2 lead, the Cavs ripped off a 9-4 run to make it a one-possession game, but two quick threes from Irving and a pull-up jumper from Hayward stretched the lead out again. Irving was in his bag early against his former team. He had 13 points on 5/6 shooting in the first quarter and showcased his entire offense arsenal along the way.
#Celtics lead #Cavaliers 30-26 after 1Q. Irving 13, Tatum 7; Thomson 7.
Hayward continued his solid play since moving to the bench. Presumably taking to heart the pep talk that Irving gave him at their last practice, Hayward came out of the gates looking for his shot. He knocked down three mid-range jumpers and even attempted a backdoor lob play out of a timeout that had Celtics fans everywhere holding their breath.
While Hayward was finding his offense, Clarkson was keeping the Cavs in the game. Ten points on nine shots in just 11 minutes off the bench proved once again that Clarkson can be a potent scorer at times, but not much else. As the Celtics settled for tough shots with Irving on the bench, Tristan Thompson, Clarkson, and the Cavs took their first lead of the game late in the second quarter. But the C's snapped back to reality and went on an 15-5 run to end the half, thanks in large part to some ball-handling wizardry from "Uncle Drew" himself.
Boston took a 62-52 lead into the locker room and were looking for a strong third quarter to put the game away early on the first night of a grueling, cross country back-to-back.
And a hot start was exactly what the Celtics got. The C's scored 17 points in the first five minutes of the third quarter and extended their lead. Irving drained another deep three, Aron Baynes added a few dunks, and Morris scored eight quick points out of the halftime break. Boston also forced the issue and got to the free throw line early and often in the third, something that has not been the case very much this year.
Sensing that a fourth-quarter blowout on the horizon, Irving continued to push the pass and score at will on rookie Collin Sexton. Hayward and Terry Rozier picked up where the starting unit left off, a combined 13 points in the third quarter, and the Celtics stretched their lead to 29 points.
Hayward playing tonight like he took Kyrie's advice to heart. 14 points in 18 minutes with a lot of smart aggression mixed in.
The fourth quarter was mainly trivial, with Smart being the only Boston starter to see any minutes. The Celtics haven't had too many dominant wins this year, so it was nice to see players like Rozier, Semi Ojeleye, and Daniel Theis get some extended run. Robert Williams threw together some highlight plays, finishing an alley-oop and blocking s shot into the Earth's crust. PJ Dozier even got some minutes, scoring seven points in his Celtic debut.
The competition hasn't been strong over the past few games, but we are starting to see glimpses of a more consistent, dominant Celtics team. Players are starting to find their roles, the new starting unit has been excellent, and the offense is starting to click. Boston won't have to wait long to get back into action as they take on the surging Minnesota Timberwolves on the road on Saturday night at 8:00pm.

Freshwater habitats of the New Forest
The New Forest is a world class freshwater landscape . It may not be obvious – wetlands are probably not the first thing to come to mind when you think of the New Forest – but this National Park can indeed rival famous freshwater landscapes around the world.
What makes the New Forest different to other parts of the UK is the clean water, a result of the high quality habitats, free from the pollution that comes with intensive land use. The heathland, woodland, grassland, and mire that surrounds the ponds, rivers, streams and ditches is, importantly, maintained by traditional and extensive grazing. There are few sources of pollution, so the water remains clean. And where there is clean water, there is an abundance of wildlife.
Step into the National Park, and immediately you are in a very different kind of place.
In 2016, volunteers tested 675 water samples from ponds, streams, rivers, lakes and ditches in the Park .
An amazing 74% showed no sign of nutrient pollution. Most of that clean water was found in ponds.
Over 1,000 ponds are dotted across the New Forest, within the woodlands, heaths, grasslands and floodplain meadows. And there are many thousand more transient trackway and bog pools. Together, they provide incredible freshwater habitats with exceptional wetland plant and insect communities. Unrivalled in terms of their quality and quantity, they are home to some of our most endangered plants and animals.
Take, for instance, the Tadpole and Fairy Shrimps. These fascinating crustaceans love the seasonal ponds of the Forest. When the ponds dry out, potential predators and competitors die off, but the shrimps remain, hiding as drought-proof eggs in mud. When the rains return, the shrimps quickly develop and grow, in a race to breed and lay more eggs before the ponds dry up again and the cycle repeats. The Fairy Shrimp is found in a handful of sites outside the Forest, but the Tadpole Shrimp is know from only one other site, making the New Forest a very special place indeed.

Other treasures of the New Forest include Tubular Water-dropwort, Lesser Bladderwort, Marsh Clubmoss, Coral Necklace and Pillwort. What they all have in common is the need for clean water. Once much more widespread, they are now restricted to places like the New Forest, and nowhere else are they so widespread and safe.
Coral Necklace is a rare flowering plant that grows in grazed seasonal ponds. Although it is now restricted to just a few sites in southern and south-west England, it is abundant in the New Forest. Photo credit: Naomi Ewald/Freshwater Habitats Trust
The New Forest is a memory of what great swathes of the country were once like. It's a landscape very dear to our hearts here at Freshwater Habitats Trust.

Sammy Hagar Recalls Pantera Manager Inquiring About Interest in Joining the Band
David Becker / Jason LaVeris, Getty Images
Sammy Hagar famously became Van Halen's second vocalist after David Lee Roth exited the group for a solo career, but Hagar says there have been other opportunities throughout his life where a similar situation was a possibility, including one inquiry about his interest after Pantera split with Philip Anselmo. Hagar recalled the incident while chatting with SiriusXM host Jose Mangin while sitting in Dimebag Darrell and Vinnie Paul's refurbished limousine.
Hagar sheds some doubt on the validity of the possibility of his joining Pantera, but does state that a conversation was had with the band's then manager where it was expressed that the brothers had interest in him taking over for Anselmo.
"How about if I tell you something crazy. I don't believe it; I don't believe it's true," started Hagar, before adding, "But Pantera had a manager. This was before I actually became friends with Vinnie. And [the manager] said Pantera, he said, want me to be the lead singer of the band. And he asked me, 'Would you be interested?'"
According to Hagar, he said he responded "no," citing that after his 1996 split with Van Halen he wasn't interested in a similar situation. "I'm not gonna join another band, especially covering for somebody else,' and this and that," said Hagar.
The vocalist says he later spoke with Vinnie Paul about the conversation he'd had with the manager, but the drummer didn't recall it, which makes him wonder how serious the discussion of his joining the band really was.

A woman convicted of taking a 13-year-old girl across the border for a sexual purpose likely didn't know the reason for the trip because she was expected to follow orders from her husband in their secluded British Columbia religious community, an appeal court has heard.
A B.C. Supreme Court judge found Emily Blackmore and her estranged husband Brandon Blackmore guilty last year of bringing the girl to the United States to marry polygamous church leader Warren Jeffs in 2004.
But there's no proof that Emily Blackmore, also known by her middle name Gail, communicated with her husband, the girl or Jeffs about why they were headed to the U.S., her lawyer Greg DelBigio argued at a B.C. Court of Appeal hearing on Wednesday.
Wives are subordinate to their husbands in the Blackmores' polygamous sect in Bountiful, B.C., and the trial judge was wrong to infer that Brandon Blackmore told his wife about the planned marriage, DelBigio said.
The trial judge made an inference based on his common sense, but common sense doesn't necessarily apply in the sheltered religious community, DelBigio said.
The panel of three appeal court judges pushed back on the idea that the role of a wife in Bountiful doesn't also include a responsibility to help and assist their husbands.
But wives do so "without question," replied DelBigio.
"If the husband said, 'Pack the bag,' she would pack the bag," he said, adding she would not necessarily know why they were travelling.
United States Customs and Border Protection records show Brandon and Emily Blackmore and another adult entered the country in February 2004, according the trial judge's ruling. It's unclear how or when the 13-year-old girl crossed the border.
Emily Blackmore was recorded as a witness to the girl's wedding to Jeffs in March 2004, the ruling says.
Crown lawyer Micah Rankin disputed DelBigio's portrait of the Blackmores' marriage. Brandon Blackmore's son testified at trial that his father taught him men and women are equals in the home, Rankin said.
"Things weren't quite as hierarchical as they appear to be," he said.
The trial judge didn't make a decision based on his common sense, but rather on the evidence, Rankin said. Jeffs called Brandon Blackmore telling him to bring the girl to the U.S., and the couple departed within a couple hours, he said.
"They drop everything. They leave home on a 19-hour journey and they do so in a context where the event is very momentous … from a religious point of view," Rankin said.
Jeffs is president and prophet of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, a breakaway Mormon sect that practises polygamy. He is currently serving a life sentence in the U.S. for child sexual abuse.
"It's like (the girl) is being married to the pope. More than that. This is clearly a very significant event," Rankin said.
Asked by a judge whether Emily Blackmore was happy to see the girl marry Jeffs, DelBigio said her enthusiasm doesn't prove she participated in planning the wedding.
The Crown is also challenging the acquittal of James Oler, a former Bountiful leader who was found not guilty of bringing a 15-year-old girl to the U.S. to marry another member of the polygamous church. It is expected to begin arguments in that appeal on Thursday.
Oler, 54, has separately been found guilty of polygamy for marrying five women and he will be sentenced on that conviction next week.
He attended the court hearing Wednesday. He does not have a lawyer, and an impartial adviser was appointed to assist the court and provide balance.

COVID-19 UPDATE – MAY 2020
Nepal is still in lockdown and for now, SMD School is closed until the Ministry of Education allows schools in Nepal to reopen. At the end of March, we had moved up our final exams so that many of our children were able to finish final exams. Following, we officially had to close the school on March 27th as Nepal's only tool to mitigate disaster from the pandemic is lockdown. We also sent all our staff home and will continue paying their salaries as long as we possibly can.
We ensured that all of our over 350 boarding students were able to safely return to their families—it was a huge logistical challenge, but we persevered. Only two children had to stay behind, and we are able to care for them.
All the 40 school-going monks and their monk teachers (including our SMD School Principal and VP) who normally live at the Thrangu Tashi Choling Monastery, located close to the Boudhanath Stupa, moved into the empty SMD boys' hostel—the monastics are governed by a different ministry that is allowing them to continue operating and to stay in the SMD compound. This is nice for the young monks because at SMD School, they have more space to play and will be 'safer' (speaking in terms of the virus) than in the monastery as SMD School can be fully locked down. Our school-going nuns from Thrangu Tara Abbey are okay staying at the Abbey as their compound is large enough.
Meanwhile, the young monks are continuing classes (Tibetan, English, Nepali & Computer). The two children who couldn't go home join the monks' classes. The monks do prayers and meditation every afternoon. Some of the Senior students chose to stay in lockdown at the school to help in the Director's office and to teach the young monks. The Seniors offer a chance to sing karaoke on Friday afternoons, which helps with language development, including reading comprehension, vocab, and pronunciation. The monks chose to work in Tibetan. Good choice for Nepali kids!
We have put together an online network for any of our students who happen to be in the Kathmandu Valley staying with relatives and who do have access to the internet. SMD alumna Tenzin Sangmo Lama is in charge of moderating the online support network.
Tenzin Sangmo Lama (top, centre) has been in quarantine since she got back from her New Zealand rugby trip and is unable to return to Shawnigan Lake School in Victoria, Canada for the time being. So she made this Zoom support group for SMD'ers who do have access to the internet.
All six of our high-school scholarship students oversees (Japan, Switzerland and Norway) are staying put. They are safer outside Nepal (Kathmandu is densely populated, not prepared for an outbreak, and a large proportion of Kathmandu residents have no access to soap and clean water). During this challenging time, it has been heartening to hear that our alumni near and far are sending messages of support and prayer to us and the world.
Since the COVID-19 outbreak, costs for manufactured goods have risen sharply as everything is imported, and we are losing some student sponsorships. This year, for the first time in four years, we are increasing our sponsorship rates; however, we will continue to be as flexible as possible to ensure that our long-term and new supporters can still contribute at the level that is possible for them (e.g. we can find a second sponsor for a child to share the annual costs; likewise, monthly donations are possible).
For a summary on the situation in Nepal, please read South Asian Voices COVID-19 in Nepal: Low Numbers Don't Tell The Whole Story, the Kathmandu Post's Nepal Government Extends COVID-19 Lockdown Until May 7 and Kathmandu Post COVID-19 Portal.
Spring is well underway in Nepal. We look forward to the day we can start classes again. In the meantime, I am sending you my thoughts of peace, love, and strength,
Shirley Blair

Shree Mangal Dvip Boarding School for Himalayan Children


As summer transitions into fall, try these fruity beers to extend the season's bounty.
As an overall style, fruit beers are loosely defined. It can be argued, however, that many of the best examples are those crafted from a sour beer base, offering balance and vibrancy to what could be an otherwise overly sweet or cloying fruit flavor.
Some of the best fruit beers come from Belgium, where traditional lambics are king. Spontaneously fermented and blended with fresh fruits during secondary fermentation, these are some seriously fruit-driven beers that exhibit the best of the ingredient alongside tart wild-yeast flavors. They are also quite low in alcohol, which means you can enjoy more without serious side effects.
Although wild ferments are famously rooted in Belgian brewing tradition, American brewers have created a style of their own: American wild ales. "Wild" yeasts or bacteria, such as Brettanomyces, Saccharomyces, Pediococcus and Lacto-bacillus, are introduced into ferments, leaving a distinct imprint on the beer. Often, these are sour notes as well as barnyard, Band-Aid, animal or earthy characteristics.
Many brewers also add fruit—or as we see from some of the selections reviewed this month, traditional wine grapes—to these ales. These additions augment the acidic, vinous characteristics that these brews often exhibit.
Also rooted in European tradition, gose—a German-style soured wheat ale brewed with salt and spices—has caught the attention of American brewers as a refreshing, fun and playful style of beer open to interpretation, as well as various fruit additions. Some of these hot offerings are also included below.
Lindemans Oude Kriek Cuvée René Grand Cru (Fruit Lambic; Brouwerij Lindemans, Belgium); $13/750 ml, 96 points. This selection is new to the U.S. market, but according to the brewery's Web site, it is the beer they are most proud to create. This is masterfully crafted and perfectly balanced. Whole cherries are added to the base lambic inside oak foudres, then fermented for six months before bottling, resulting in a complex, layered, dried- and spiced-cherry character. Cherry juice, pie filling, baking spice, rose petal, barnyard and light oak dance on the nose and mouth. It's unpasteurized, not sweetened like many of the brewery's other fruit lambics, and referments in the bottle, giving this a dry, pleasantly funky character that lingers long on the finish. Merchant du Vin. Cellar Selection.
Odell Brewing Co. Piña Agria Sour Pineapple (American Wild Ale; Odell Brewing Co., CO); $17/750 ml, 92 points. This is the kind of beer that makes you wonder why more people haven't used pineapple in their sours before. Sure, Odell isn't the first, but this is a delicious, harmonious brew that marries the intensely wild and funky character of an American wild ale with the sweet yet tart flavor of ripe pineapple, and to wonderful effect. Pineapple is front and center on the nose and palate, as expectred, but pleasant, supporting notes of underripe mango, melon and citrus round the experience out. Medium carbonation and assertive acidity makes for a lively and refreshing palate, finishing tart and juicy, with hints of barnyard, hay and white pepper.
Avery Brewing Spontanea Barrel-Aged Wild Ale (American Wild Ale; Avery BrewingCo., CO); $NA/12 oz, 91 points. Number 24 in the brewery's barrel-aged series, this wild ale is brewed with Cabernet Sauvignon must from Boulder's Bookcliff Winery. The beer underwent 100% spontaneous fermentation after the grapes sat in a tank with the malted barley for seven days, and then was transferred to neutral oak barrels and aged for one year. The resulting beer is surprisingly clean and wine-like, with a palpable tannic structure and earthy character. Typical Cabernet Sauvignon elements show on the nose and palate, with assertive tones of blackberry, plum, licorice and toasted spice all mingling harmoniously. Peppery oak, dry tannins and a leathery accent all unfold on the evolving finish. A complex and unique bottle worth savoring. 123 cases produced.
Victory Kirsch Gose (Gose; Victory Brewing Co., PA); $9/12 oz 4 pack, 91 points. A lively, bright and extremely effervescent brew, forget about a bowl of cherries and reach for this fruity stunner instead. It pours a clear light-red color, with a glimmer of a head that dissipates quickly. The aromas and flavors are fresh and fruit-forward, with just-ripe red cherry leading the way while hints of citrus and barnyard dance in the background. The carbonation is high and the palate brisk, with racing acidity and a hint of salinity holding on the finish.
Avery Brewing Einzigartig Barrel-Aged Wild Ale (American Wild Ale; Avery Brewing Co., CO); $NA/12 oz, 90 points. Number 25 in the brewery's barrel-aged series, this wild ale is brewed with Riesling must from Boulder's Bookcliff Winery, then aged a year in neutral Cabernet Sauvignon barrels. The result is a highly successful, well-balanced beer-wine hybrid, offering a vinous bouquet of tropical fruit, golden raisin, lemon and funky wild yeast. The mouthfeel is tart and acidic, with a subtle warmth and roundness to the ripe tropical-fruit flavors, although not as much as the alcohol would suggest. Hints of sweet spice and oak kiss the lingering finish. 159 cases produced.
Odell Brewing Co. Brombeere Blackberry Gose (Gose; Odell Brewing Co., CO); $12/12 oz 4 pack, 90 points. This refreshing and mouthwatering selection pours a hazy red color, with upfront aromas of muddled blackberry, fleur du sel, soft grain and underripe peach. Those notes continue through to the juicy palate, with a brisk mouthfeel, medium-high carbonation and superb salinity that lingers long on the berry-cereal flavored finish.
Anderson Valley Brewing Company Highway 128 Session Series Blood Orange Gose (Gose; Anderson Valley Brewing Company, CA); $11/12 oz 6 pack, 89 points. A tart, juicy and immensely refreshing selection, this offers subtle scents of orange, lemon and sea spray. The palate offers more intensity than the nose, with sour, somewhat scathingly acidic tones of sour citrus and wild yeast, ending bitter, dry and salty. The carbonation is high and the mouthfeel light and prickly. Being canned, this is a perfect choice for beach days or other warm-weather outings, and would pair well with barbecued chicken or cedar-plank salmon.

Tunica-Biloxi Tribe of Louisiana and Mohegan Gaming and Entertainment Announce Operational Partnership for Paragon Casino Resort
Posted on October 24, 2018 October 9, 2019 by Tunica-Biloxi Tribe of Louisiana
Marksville, La. – (Oct. 24, 2018) – The Tunica-Biloxi Tribe of Louisiana has announced that it has formalized an agreement with a subsidiary of Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment (MGE), owned by the Mohegan Tribe of Connecticut, to serve as the operational partner for Paragon Casino Resort located in Marksville, La. The five-year contract will enable MGE to take a larger role in the operations and management of Paragon.
The relationship with MGE began as a consulting agreement with the Tunica-Biloxi Tribe in May 2016. Since then, the Connecticut-based organization has provided gaming, hospitality and entertainment consulting services to Paragon and assisted with a full refresh of the brand and facilities. Improvements included new, Mississippi River themed carpet throughout the gaming floor, additional slot machines, re-designed billboards, updated collateral and more. With the newly-signed agreement MGE's subsidiary will manage all gaming, entertainment and hospitality of the casino resort.
"Paragon is a driving force in the local community and surrounding region, "said Tunica Biloxi Chairman Marshall Pierite. "We are confident that our agreement with representatives of Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment will enable us to be a significant economic engine for the community and the Tunica Biloxi Nation for generations to come."
"Soon after our Federal Recognition, we were motivated by Senators McCain and Inouye of the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs to 'pay it forward', and to use our good fortune to assist our brother and sister tribes across Indian Country," said Kevin Brown "Red Eagle," Chairman of the Mohegan Tribe. "This management agreement is us making good on the promise to do just that, and is an example of how we can work together to sustain our good fortune as we exercise our sovereignty. We are excited and honored to partner with the Tunica-Biloxi Tribe, and we are thankful to the NIGC for their favorable receipt of our proposal to manage the Paragon Casino in the Mohegan Way."
"Paragon has been an economic driver in Avoyelles Parish for 24 years, providing jobs and entertainment to the community," said Tunica-Biloxi Vice Chairman Marshall Ray Sampson, Sr. "We're looking forward to expanding that reach and impact to our community."
"Through our extended partnership with MGE, we hope to continue to enhance the Paragon experience for visitors and guests," said Jody Madigan, General Manager of Paragon Casino Resort. "MGE has already assisted Paragon greatly over the past two years and we look forward to a bright future with their increased involvement."
Opened in 1994, the Paragon has both adult and family-friendly entertainment options with an impressive lineup of luxury amenities and attractions including a hotel with more than 500 rooms, full-service spa and salon, 18-hole golf course with a fully stocked pro-shop and grillroom, indoor tropical pool with a swim-up bar, a soaring retail atrium with three shops, a "living" bayou and alligator encounters in the lobby and a three-screen cinema. Additionally, Paragon's Atrium Bar is the region's only ice bar and the resort boasts seven restaurants, a daiquiri bar and a full-service RV resort with 205 slips and 30 cabins. Entertainment is hosted weekly in its Mari Showroom and the facility offers over 75,000 square feet of meeting space for large events and groups.
MGE is the owner, developer and/or manager of integrated resorts throughout the United States, including Connecticut, New Jersey, Washington, Pennsylvania and Northern Asia. Paragon Casino Resort is the first facility in Louisiana to be managed by MGE.

Cinnamon Blood Sugar Supplements- A Diabetes Antidote?
Are you Pre-diabetic or do you have high blood sugar levels? Type 2 Diabetes could be right around the corner. Making smart decisions about what you eat, drink, and do physically can directly correlate positively with your overall health. In addition, there are natural remedies such as cinnamon blood sugar supplements and others that can help!
Recognizing the simple things your body needs may help you avoid a serious illness or disease.
Diabetes Type 2 (also termed as "Diabetes Mellitus") is a condition where your blood sugar peaks at a higher level and your "insulin" malfunctions due to a damaged pancreas. You may also see is written as DM.
Seems likely, but it may depend. A new study indicates there are natural remedies that have been proven to change Type 2 Diabetes in 3 weeks! Hence, supplements, such as cinnamon blood sugar, chromium, and coenzyme Q10 are also taken to lessen the symptoms.
Cinnamon Blood Sugar Supplements have Therapeutic Claims for Diabetics- Cinnamon was used in ancient China, Egypt and India for medicinal purposes. Consequently, many believe it lowers blood glucose levels of type 2 diabetes patients.
-grown in South America, South East Asia, and West Indies.
The diabetes medicines are still the best ways to combat diabetes along with proper diet. Always consult your doctor if you are planning to try the cinnamon supplement or the ICTM technique.
For people with diabetes type 2, Hemoglobin AIC Examination is a kind of blood test conducted to determine the sugar count and average glucose over a period of time.
The normal maximum level of sugar is at 5.7% and pre-diabetes normally ranges from 5.8% but not over 6.4%. Hence, people associated with diabetes type 2 already reached their blood sugar levels above the 6.5%. It is a mandatory to have at least twice a year Hemoglobin AIC Examination to manage your blood sugar.
It's challenging to eat less and eat healthy, but gradually, both become habit. Also, drink lots of water to fill up and clean your system.
Don't eat past 6pm for best results in weight management. In addition, try to preplan weekly menu's to include a vegetarian diet.
Exercise helps rid your body of unwanted glucose.
Have fun exercising through activities like swimming, dancing, tennis, running, jogging, or enroll in a gym.
Diet and Exercise are key, and that's why we found this breakthrough so encouraging through the ICTM.
