Ed Westwick Replaced In BBC's Ordeal By Innocence Following Rape Allegations

Producers decided to remove Ed Westwick from BBC's Agatha Christie special, Ordeal By Innocence, following the allegations of sexual assault and rape. However, fortunately for the company, they found a replacement, Christian Cooke.
After the accusations of misconduct, the BBC had no choice but to distance themselves from Ed, and the network said to Variety that the TV drama wouldn't air during Christmas.
However, like Christopher Plummer replacing Kevin Spacey in All The Money In The World, the frames featuring Westwick in the BBC series will be re-shot with Cooke as the character, Mickey Argyll.
Extremely grateful that my film Edith, after making the BAFTA long list and having been accepted into 30 film festivals worldwide (and counting) … has won Best UK feature short at Bolton Film Festival (apparently they saw 400 films) – always wondered whether I'd be understood in Bolton and now I know …. thank you to everyone who voted, a bigger thank you to everyone who invested in our film, and an even bigger thank you to all the wonderfully talented people that helped me make it. To name but a few… @sara_huxley @april_kelley @fifipics @sibell1984 @marc_t_richardson @marnieis @rayrobinsonwriter @rjbirkin @tlncasting … somethin' else bubbling … slowly but surely … ?? #edithfilm #petermullan #michellefairley
A post shared by Christian Cooke (@christiancooke1) on Sep 26, 2017 at 10:17am PDT
Previously, in a statement to Variety, BBC said they wouldn't "make a judgment" until the matters had been fully resolved. The series, White Gold – in which Ed starred, was also canceled.
In case you haven't followed the story, Kristina Cohen was one of the first women to accuse Ed of egregious misconduct in a Facebook post on the 6th of November.
According to the woman, Ed raped her three years ago and filed a police report against him at the LA Police Department.
In response to the charges, Westwick said the claims were demonstrably false, and he had never laid a hand on a woman or forced himself on one either.
Another girl, Wynn, claims that Ed ripped a tiny bathing suit off of her and she was "in complete shock" as he allegedly raped her.
In response, Westwick said that it was "disheartening" to see that someone would accuse him of such crimes considering they are entirely untrue.
To demonstrate his innocence, he intended to cooperate with authorities to the best of his ability. Furthermore, another woman, Rachel Eck, said in a BuzzFeed story that Ed tried to come on to her the night before the Academy Awards back in 2014. Rachel claimed that Ed repeatedly tried to proposition her, despite that not being a crime.

Paul Haggis Accused Of Rape And Misconduct By Several Women


Hello to Everyone on this forum. I am a "newbie" to this site, as well as forums in general. I must say that I am absolutely addicted to this site. I have especially enjoyed reading the "Why Are Apaches So Great" thread, as well as all of the "Thad Allen" stuff from "Steve1".
I am in the process of reconstructing a 1983 Chris Craft Scorpion(because I cannot afford an Apache right now, haha). I will post pictures of the project as I go. I would surely appreciate talking with anyone who is interested in my project or anyone who knows about these rare boats.
Here is the floating rotbucket leaving the previous owners dock on Lake Erie, headed for it's new home on Lake St Claire.
Here is a pic from about a month ago while stripping the "cancer" out.
Engine bay nearly stripped out.
Professionals, feel free to chime in! I will be running the existing TRS drives for now. Should I consider raising the drives while I have the opportunity? I understand that this boat is never going to be a racer, but could I possibly see some increase in performance here? The bottom of the drive cutout in the transom is appx 6" above the notch in the transom, measured from the inside of the boat. What would be a target "X dimension" for this boat?
I will not tell u what to do, but if would be mine...i either raise them 1.5 inches or buy some bravo I's !!!
By no means am i a pro tough !!!!!
Also relize by raising the drives u have to raise the engines as well !!!
Thanks for the input DD. I do realize that I would have to raise the engines as well, I just figured that it may be worth doing at this time. The boat is very well supported underneath. Thanks again.
The answer to your question is twofold. The first reason is because I am a newbie and connot get the real pic that I wanted to use, to upload. The second reason is that I am an Apache addict. Although I don't currently own one, my goal is to own at least one, some day. I guess that makes me a wannabee for now. I would really rather have my own avatar, and was somewhat reluctant to use the Apache avatar. Once I figure this thing out, I will fix it.
I figured it out. This is the avatar I really wanted. This is me in my Grand Prix Hydroplane on the Detroit River in 2003. I won the DYC Silver Cup this race. I don't mean to brag, but it was a proud day for me and my team.
Do you still race Grand Prix??????
Jetcruzr, First I would like to Welcome you. Then I would like to suggest you to start a thread in the glass section and post your progress. I have one running now. Jeffsway has a popular thread raising the X dimension. His is finished. There are a few more too.
I retired from racing in 2005, as the sport was dying. The class has recently seen new growth and support, so I am currently building a new boat to race in the the 2011 or 2012 season...as if the Scorpion project wasn't enough!
Jetcruzr, First I would like to Welcome you. Then I would like to suggest you to start a thread in the glass section and post your progress. I have one running now. Jeffsway has a popular thread raising the X dimension.
Jetcruzr, Great to see another guy in the neighborhood into these big boats. Do you have a shop over on Hatchery Rd?
Yep, that is me. Where are you located? Feel free to stop in if you see the shop open.
Thanks for the comment Fund. Yeah, they are a good looking boat and very rare. Although I have not confirmed it, I am told there were only 38 of them ever built, so I feel that she is worthy of being saved.
Ironic to hear from you. A good friend of mine told telling me yesterday, about this huge offshore boat in the driveway down the street from his parents house, although he did not know what kind it was. I told him that we would have to drive by and investigate it. Even more ironic, is that my sponsor/partner, when I was racing, lives on the island near you. Small world.
Would that partner happen to be John Moody?
It would in fact be John Moody. John and Kathy are great people. They have been very generous to me and my team.
Tom, It was great to meet you in Sunny Isle. I wonder if you will make St. Clair.
Have you had a chance to make any progress on your project?
It was nice to finally meet you as well. Unfortunatly, I was not able to see you race on Sunday, as I had to work. As far as my project goes, I am waiting on coring material right now. I should have the material in another week. I plan to come watch in Harrison and St Claire, so I will probably see you there and bend your ear some more. Thanks for the help and advice so far.
I'm also assuming you will be at the Gold Cup in Detroit?
Paul, nice to have met you in SIB. I will most definately be at the Gold Cup Races, however, I will not be racing there unfortunatly. My race boat consists of only a few molded pieces that have not even been mounted to the jig yet, so I probably won't be ready to race until the 2012 season. The Grand Prix class, which is the class I race, is not part of the schedule in Detroit yet. They are trying to get the GP's back on in Detroit, so hopefully they can work it out by the time I am done with my boat.
Thanks for checking out my thread. As you can see, I have a sizable project to contend with. I plan to start installing the transom and stringers in the next couple of weeks. Like Paul says, it is only a matter of time before I am asking you for some type of advice. I am planning to use high density divinycell for transom, stringers and bulkheads. I am planning on bonding the pieces in place, then bagging and infusing each piece. Although I am new to the whole bagging and infusing process, I have recruited assistance from people that are proficient in the process. I am very excited to get started installing parts. Feel free to throw your 2 cents worth in.
I sandblasted the transom skin today. Divinycell coring should be delivered later this week, then bagging and infusing soon. This should be interesting!
Did you get any info on drive height? At this point, it is the time to figure it out, even if it delays you a couple weeks.
79 on GPS from a 39 Scorpion with TRS's??????
My 83 runs mid 70's with 630HP a side.
Any chance his HP is measured at the propshaft instead of the crankshaft?
I would take the time to measure your buddies drive height.
Nope, I bought mine from the Boston area and had it delivered.
Yes Paul, it is a 1982 39' Scorpion with TRS's just like yours and mine. I would not have believed it, had I not been on the boat and seen it for myself. It is very possible that I underestimated his HP. He calls them 525's, but I think he is referring to CID and not HP. They sound way too wicked to be only 525 HP, so I may have been incorrect in my posting of the HP. The mid to hi 70mph is accurate though. I was actually on my way out to his boat to measure his drives today, but the weather went to hell. Based on how his boat performs, I would think that wherever his drives are is where I should put mine if they are not there already. Agreed?
Someday you'll be switching drives if you keep the boat. The Konrads are 1.6 inches shorter I believe, and you can also get a shorter Konrad yet with spacers I think. It is a strong, easy, semi-reasonable upgrade.
I'll try to get the dimension on mine to compare with his. I'd like to know the difference, if any. Find out his true HP if you can. Most Scorpion/Excalibur bottoms with TRS's seem to hit a wall in the mid 70's no matter what kind of power you throw at them.
Paul and Jim - are you guys coming to the St Claire race? I will try to get my buddy to bring his Scorpion up there. I am sure he would take you guys for a ride in it and you can see it run for yourself. As I said, I can't believe how well the old barge runs myself. My POS barely runs 50mph with the little 330's in it...boring. I am not even sure my boat is fully planing, it is so slow...haha.
They sound way too wicked to be only 525 HP, so I may have been incorrect in my posting of the HP. The mid to hi 70mph is accurate though. Based on how his boat performs, I would think that wherever his drives are is where I should put mine if they are not there already. Agreed?
I would guess 650 to 675 hp's is more accurate.. I would measure to see what he has got for height. Shame is with TRS you can not really take advantage of modern propellers. I suggest you run a cleaver type and not a round ear for the drives sake..
I found from a job years ago a 34 Sutphen with 675's and TRS with 27 Mirages topped at 92 mph.. Never saw a boat go faster with TRS.. Even Fever a 27 r 8 Manta with 675 screaming small blocks couldn't top that..
Mine are in the basement now.. I plan to raise them to the rub rail which is 3" higher.. One day a few years from now I will add Konrads. So round numbers the 4.5 from 9 will leave me around 4.5 inches down on prop shaft height. Than add the 1" shorty I think they offer and I am right where I want to be.
Hope the best for your father.
I believe the base Konrad is 1.6" shorter than the TRS from when I checked.
Can you sketch the way you meaure the centerline from the bottom so we all do it exactly the same way? I am really curious on this one.
Been out running much yet????
I stopped by your shop on Sunday just to see what was going on. I'm sure I was in the right spot becaues there was a Scorpion deck laying on the ground in front of one of the buildings. Don't see those everywhere. :ack2: Unfortunately no one was there. If you're ever in my nieghborhood and you see us out, feel free to stop by.
Sorry I missed you. I am usually at the boat shop during the week after work, and on Saturdays. I usually head to the lake on Sundays to relax. I will definately stop in and say hello if I see you outside. Seriously, if you need a hand with anything to get your boat going, I am more than happy to help, so don't hesitate to ask.
Feels like it..Working on them since the early 80's.
I am just rounding numbers in general. 1.5 or 1.6 inches doesn't matter much in this case. I do recall shorties listed..
Prop heights are easy to measure.. Parallel prop shaft to bottom. Use a straight edge to measure height in line with gearcase. In order to get an accurate number you should first make a mark on leading edge of case so the straight edge can be on a line exactly in line and parallel. The mark can be measured from the cavitation plate to the dimple of the prop shaft in the rear. Mark the same distance on the forward edge.
Paul, On mine I will only raise it to the rub rail.. I am not going to cut the rail and get all silly. I do not want to modify hatches either. Its just an old pleasure boat..
I can vouch for Ian and Donna. Good people Tom..
I'm assuming I'll see them both in St Clair and maybe Harrison??????


Entering a new church for the first time can be a daunting experience. However you should be aware that we receive many visitors each week, so don't worry about being the only one who is there for the first time. Before our morning and evening services you will find a Welcome team standing in the foyer. You will recognize them because they will be wearing name badges. Please introduce yourself and ask for a Welcome pack. If you come to our Communion service, the Church members at the Welcome Desk will invite you to give your name so that we can welcome you at the start of the service. If you don't want to be announced, just say so! They will also explain the format of our Communion service to you, in case you are unfamiliar with our approach to 'the Lord's Supper'. If you have no plans for lunch, then ask the Welcome team about hospitality arrangements. This hospitality service is particularly aimed at students and first time visitors.
If you are not yet a Christian and would like to learn more about the Gospel of Jesus Christ then ask any member or someone from the Welcome team about our Christianity Explored course which runs each Tuesday evening throughout term time. If you are a Christian and would like to enjoy more opportunities to have fellowship then read through the weekly leaflet for details of the events and activities which run throughout the week. The Welcome team will gladly introduce you to other Church members who are involved in the events you are interested in attending.
At some stage you may care to talk to some of the elders about joining the Church as a member. If you have been coming for a while, and have asked the Lord to guide your thinking about Church membership, then ask for the booklet we have published which explains our ethos and values. (A lot of the material is also available on this Web site). Church members and elders will gladly answer your questions informally before any application is made. In order to become a member, applicants are interviewed by the elders of the Church – usually on a Monday evening. We run classes for New Members each year.

Stafford underwent training in Egypt before embarking as part of the Mediterranean Expeditionary Force on the Derflinger in April 1915. He landed with the 2nd Battalion on 25 April 1915 and suffered gunshot wounds in the first few days of the Gallipoli campaign. His wound was serious enough to warrant evacuation to the Dongala on 8 May 1915 before re-joining his unit on 21 May 1915. Stafford was reported missing during the battle for Lone Pine and on 24 August 1915, he was confirmed as being killed in action between 6 and 9 August 1915.

Jair Bolsonaro, the populist former army captain who led a wave of support for the far-Right in Brazil's election, said he would not moderate his hardline views as he began his final push to lead the country.
Brazil's political landscape was shaken to the core on Sunday as Mr Bolsonaro took a seemingly unassailable lead in the first round of the presidential ballot while his party Social Liberal Party made huge gains in Congress.
In his first interview since the vote, Mr Bolsonaro said he would stick to his to his uncompromising Right-wing messages and not become a "peace and love" candidate just to win more votes.
His rival, centre-Left candidate Fernando Haddad, pledged to unite moderates across the country to create a broad centrist coalition to challenge the "anti-democratic threat" of Mr Bolsonaro in Latin America's largest democracy.
Mr Bolsonaro secured 46 per cent of the vote, beating Mr Haddad's 29 per cent, but falling just shy of the absolute majority required to win the election in the first round. Meanwhile, Mr Bolsonaro's far-Right Social Liberal Party gained a massive 51 seats in the lower house of Congress, making it the second largest party in the chamber.
The presidential vote will now go to a October 28 run-off between Mr Bolsonaro, who spent much of the campaign in hospital after being stabbed at a rally, and Mr Haddad, the hand-picked candidate of Luiz Inácio "Lula" Da Silva, the Workers' Party's imprisoned former president.
Mr Bolsonaro said his "discourse will basically stay the same" as he called for the country to "unify" around him, in an interview with the Brazilian radio station Jovem Pan on Monday.
Mr Haddid's call to arms for centrists to help him block the far-Right from the presidential palace has echoes of Emmanuel Macron's second-round surge to keep out the National Front's Marine Le Pen.
But a big enough swing to the Left in the second round of voting appears to be a big ask. Opinion polls published before the first round projected a statistical tie between the two candidates in the second, but with Mr Bolsonaro's strong showing on Sunday, Mr Haddad is likely to have to take votes from his opponent to have any chance of victory.
After a deep recession, sluggish recovery and sweeping corruption scandals, Brazil's election has been characterised by anti-establishment sentiment as well as a staunch rejection of the Workers' Party, which has won the last four presidential elections in the country and is mired in bribery scandals.
Mr Bolsonaro rocketed to the top of the polls by representing the fiercest opposition to the Workers' Party, but he also faces high rejection rates due to his track record of sexist, racist and homophobic remarks.
His proximity to the armed forces is also a concern for many, in a country which lived under a repressive military rule between 1964 and 1985. Mr Bolsonaro has said he intends to fill his cabinet with a new generation of military politicians, many of which were victorious on Sunday.
Mr Haddad only became the official Workers' Party candidate 23 days before the election, after Lula was officially barred from running due to his corruption conviction.
Broadcasting live on social media after Sunday evening's results, Mr Bolsonaro gestured towards voters from Brazil's northeast region, which is traditionally a Workers' Party stronghold and was the only part of the country in which the Social Liberal Party candidate did not obtain a majority of votes.
Following false reports of vote rigging, Mr Bolsonaro also took the opportunity to call into question the validity of the results, stating that if Brazil's voting system "had any integrity", he would have been elected in the first round.
The front-runner was previously confident of securing an overall majority in Sunday's vote, declaring that morning that he would be "on the beach" on 28 October, the day of the decisive second-round runoff.
Both candidates will embark on a three-week campaign, which began officially on Monday afternoon. There will be a total of six presidential debates, and Mr Bolsonaro and Mr Haddad will each receive equal airtime for televised political broadcasts.
However, there were suggestions that Mr Bolsonaro would repeat his snub of TV debates in a sign the populist insurgent will continue his reliance on social media as his preferred platform to reach his loyal supporters.

As graduation time comes, many graduates will be making major decisions about their future. They must decide how to pursue their careers with the diplomas they have. They must transition from the more carefree student life to that of one in the workforce. Finally, paraphrasing Shakespeare, they must decide whether to adult or not to adult. That is a fundamental question.
Thus, "to adult" means to do something grown-up or hold responsibilities common to those of elders. A young man "adults" well when he appears on time for work or is well groomed. The word does not necessarily mean that he has abandoned his childish ways but only that he did something adult-like at one point in time.
For this reason, so many young people adult today. They do not grow up but rather live in a state of eternal adolescence. Adulting facilitates this world by allowing these young people to act like adolescents most of the time while pretending to be adults part of the time.
And so to answer the question of to adult or not to adult, here are five pieces of advice for graduates that may prove helpful.
Don't adult. If you understand the term to mean simply doing adult things without abandoning childish things, then it is better not to adult. The temptation of adopting a murky middle ground between adolescence and adulthood merely prolongs the first and ruins the second.
Don't adult. Leave your childhood behind. Be only an adult. Put away the things of a child or teenager. Understand that milestones like graduations, whether high school or college, are rites of passage from which there is no return. There are certain things that adults do not do. They do not play child (or video) games. They do not treat life as a big party. They should not spend countless hours on social media. They should get rid of their toys.
Don't adult. Assume the great responsibilities of your adult life. Understand that the decisions of where you live, what you eat and how your family survives now belong entirely to you, and to no one else. You have only to gain by accepting your duties. Being childish about your obligations will lead to a miserable life of resentment, entitlement and blaming others.
Don't adult. Ponder in your mind what it means to be an adult. Know what you want to be. Spend some time plotting out your future. Take some time out now to ponder alone and in silence those essential life questions about your purpose in life. Pray and listen to the voice of God who calls everyone to know, love and serve Him. Being an adult means establishing a relationship with God to aid you in the challenges of the path that you need to choose now.
Don't adult. Prepare yourself for the misfortunes and sufferings that are part of being an adult. When you were a child, you were shielded from many of these misfortunes. That shield is no longer there, and you deceive yourself if you think the contrary. Everyone must face tragedy and suffering. Now the time has come for you to embrace your crosses along the road of life. When faced with Christian resignation, these hardships even become a source of satisfaction and accomplishment.
These are five counsels for this year's graduates that reflect the common sense of living in the real world.
However, today's postmodern world has a contrary set of counsels. People are told instead to avoid definition and embrace contradiction. One should not develop a stable character but rather self-identify to whatever fantasy one happens to create. Life is all about freedom to do whatever one wants even when this "freedom" often has consequences that enslave (as in the case of substance abuse).
The tragic result of this worldview is an immense throng of young people who cannot find their way as adults. They live at home and depend on parents for housing, living expenses or spending money. In fact, adults between 18 to 34 are now slightly more likely to be living with parents than a spouse (or other) in their own household. Nearly sixty percent of parents provide some financial support to their adult children.
That is why many such children prefer to adult. That is, to make forays into the adult world without living in it. They prefer to live a life oriented toward fun and infantile pleasure and detached from meaning and purpose.
The best time to prevent these adulting forays is well before graduation. Parents need to understand that childhood is a preparation for adulthood, not a permanent state. Being an adult is the final goal of development not a mere option among many. Parents must instill in their children a strong sense of purpose in life—and a great concern for their eternal destiny in the afterlife. Only then will they be able to develop good habits and strong character to confront the difficulties of later life. In this way the transition to adulthood is not abrupt but seamless. One adapts. One matures. One does not adult.
Until saner times prevail, however, many will condemn themselves to adult in a world that is ever more childish.

Sometimes it occurs, that a plugin from the Shopware Store is not campatible with our user management and don't provide an ACL resource. In some cases you might still not want all users to have access to the menu item of the plugin. In this tutorial we explain how you can hide the menu item through a manual configuration in the backend.
In Firebug you can either see the url in the tab Console or the Tab Network. You should clear the view complete to get a clear list of requests, then click on the menu item in the backend. The first GET-parameter should be the correct URL for the menu item.
The Chrome-debugger is similar to this. Here you can also find the information in the tab Network.
With the URL you know the exact controller-name. In the case of Business Essentials this is BusinessEssentials. The parameters that occur after the "?" in the GET call can be ignored. Please keep in mind that the call can differ from the plugin name! Knowing the controller name you can create a new rule & permission at Configuration > User administration. To do this, open the menu item "Edit rules & permissions" and chose a role there, afterwards you can add a new permission for Business Essentials using "Add resource". For the naming of the resource it is important to exactly type the lowercase of the controller name.
In our example this is businessessentials. Create a resource with the name businessessentials and add the privilege read. All roles that shall be able to see the menu item have to get the privilege read. For the roles, who shall not see the menu item, the whole resource has to be deactivated. All further functions in the user administration have to be individually implemented in the pluign and are not possible without programming.
It is also possible to hide the main menu entries. For this you have to read the controller name from the s_core_menu for the menu entry and create it in lower-case as resource as described above.


 Chartpoint » Slowdown Signals????????
The Daily Shot apparently had a note on U of M Consumer Expectations vs Current Conditions. As can be seen on the top chart, everyone's happy with 'Current Conditions' but there's not as much enthusiasm for future expectations. On the lower chart, the white line is the SPREAD between the UofM current conditions vs expectations; it becomes more negative as future expectations lag. Sort of a grasshopper and ant fable…having fun now but borrowing from the future. I have overlaid the 2/10 yield curve spread (in amber) on the confidence spread. Perhaps unsurprisingly, these two roughly move together directionally. Makes sense, the flatter curve typically results from the Fed hiking rates which slows the economy. Recently there has been spirited debate about whether or not a flattening curve signals slower growth and a possible recession, with some, including Bernanke, indicating that the curve now has less predictive power. However, the "social science" spread of current conditions to expectations is also near its low. Corroborating evidence???


Ahh February… the month of love. The one time of year where we're drowning in chocolate and Valentines, with the occasional poke by cupid's arrow. While the focus of most conversations in February is around external love and validation (ie: who can get the most candy-grams delivered to the class in high school) the missing element is what happens when you turn the focus of love inward.
While that's an easy thing to say, it's not the way we've been conditioned to think. But it doesn't have to be that way.
When we aim cupid's arrow at our own hearts, a pretty magical thing can happen. And I've got 5 angels that will help you with this journey. When we see ourselves the way angels see us, we shed the burden of what we perceive to be our flaws, we drop the weight of any guilt or shame we feel from the coulda woulda shouldas of life. We become lighter, freer, happier, and we get to show our inner awesomeness to the outside world.
Here's the real truth about self-love… part of why it's hard is because life can be hard. Every time we experience a heartache, or trauma, or disappointment, we layer wall upon wall around our hearts to try to prevent any heartache. And while this is an effective way to minimize hurt, it's also what keeps us from being able to truly love ourselves, or anyone else.
Archangel Michael is the protector of all the angels. You can call on him to help you to feel safe enough to let down your guard, or any time you're dealing with things that make you feel uncomfortable or bound to a particular situation or pattern. Feeling safe is the first step to being able to let love in, and the support you'll feel from being wrapped in Michael's wings is an excellent place to start your process.
Once you feel safe and ready to experience love, the next step is to open your heart so it's able to receive. This is probably the most vulnerable process because an open heart means you're also open to disappointment, but the pay off for this risk is a big one, so trust me when I say it's worthwhile.
Archangel Chamuel is guardian of the heart chakra. Despite all this talk about broken hearts, our heart center is actually the only part of us that is actually unbreakable. The pain of attachment and grief makes us think it's our heart, when in reality, the heart is our haven. Chamuel can open the doors to the heart, allowing you to let love in. Not only does this help you experience the flow of self-love, it has the added benefit of opening up receptivity to all sorts of new things like friendships, opportunities, and abundance.
One of the biggest deterrents to self love that we can encounter is when we deny how we're really feeling because it's uncomfortable or less than ideal. You'll see this in a lot of circles where anything less than "love and light" gets dismissed with a "good vibes only" brush off.
When we're learning to love ourselves, acknowledging the parts we currently deem unlovable is a core part of the healing process. When we speak it out loud (even if it's just to ourselves, or in the comfort of prayer), we strip it of its power. Silence is where guilt, shame, and regret (the biggest things we beat ourselves up over) breed - so speaking it brings it to the light. This is where Haniel comes in.
If there was one thing that can take us out of our hearts and into the land of self loathing, it would be shame. When we dwell in the past, and start imposing expectations on ourselves (especially when they're based on standards that have been created by others), it's a recipe for self loathing, when our main goal should be self loving. And the remedy for that, is forgiveness. That's where Jeremiel comes in.
Whenever the conversation turns to forgiveness, it's often directed towards other people. But much like the topic of love, our forgiveness is incomplete if it doesn't include ourselves. Jeremiel brings with him a cloak of relief that washes over us, clearing away our shame, regret, and judgment. Our shoulders are no longer weighed down with unmet expectations, and resentment, or criticism for choices we made in the past. Jeremiel helps us to recognize that when we know better, we do better, and helps us embody the energy of forgiveness so we can move forward with more lightness and more love.
When we feel down about ourselves, we have a tendency to see the world through a pretty murky lens. Instead of rose-colored glasses, consider this to be more like mud-colored glasses, so even the most beautiful things look pretty dingy. This leaves us unable to see the beauty around us, and certainly leaves us blind to the beauty within us.
Jophiel's light wipes the slate clean, helping us to not only see things beautifully, but with the dial turned up so everything is more vibrant and lovely. When we find ourselves unable to see past a difficult situation, we can call on her to show us the good in it. And in the times when we find ourselves listening to the inner critic, Jophiel speaks up to remind us about the magic we make in the world, and why we are so needed in the world.
When you see the beauty in yourself, and the beauty around you, you can't help but feel deep, heart-penetrating gratitude for the life you're living. And then more grateful you are, the more you attract reasons to experience even more gratitude.
If one of these areas is something you've felt yourself really struggling with, consider meditating with that angel every day for 30 days. The more familiar you become with the frequency of their energy, the more your own energy will expand to meet theirs, helping you strengthen this part of your self love struggle. If you need a little assistance calling these angels in, try burning an Angel's Influence Candle to help.
If you've created an altar in your sacred space devoted to cultivating self love, bringing in any or all of these angels (or angels of love more generally) will support your intention. You can include photos, angel cards, even just their names on your altar to remind you of their presence, keeping them at the forefront of your mind when you do your devotional work. Remember, Angelite is a great crystal to use when connecting with the angels and this bonsai tree would be a great addition to your altar.
Working with angels in all facets of my life has been pivotal for me to get out of my very busy head, into my ever expansive heart. I can't wait to hear how these angels help you deepen your practice, and remind you of the beauty of your big, beautiful soul.

You can make your own awning from canvas.
An entry door awning can provide protection from sun and rain and deliver a shady spot for a chair and a glass of lemonade in the summer. By making your own awning, you can construct a custom-sized shade that you can take down and put up when needed with little fuss. The awning is great for parties and can also shield a buffet table. Heavy-duty canvas drop cloths make sturdy and rain-resistant awnings and can be found at hardware and paint stores.
Measure the width of the entry area you want to cover with the awning with a tape measure. Measure the depth of the entry area. Add 4 inches to each measurement and cut out a rectangle of canvas drop cloth fabric to the measurements with scissors.
Fold and pin each edge of the canvas rectangle under 1 inch twice, for hems. Sew the hems with the sewing machine, using the zigzag attachment.
Create grommets at all four corners of the canvas awning with the grommet maker, positioning the grommets 2 inches from the edges of the awning.
Screw two eyehooks to the house above the entry. The position of the eyehooks will correspond with the grommets on one side of the awning.
Pound a nail through a 6-foot dowel, 2 inches from one end of the dowel, perpendicular to the length of the dowel. Repeat with the second dowel. Pound the ends of the dowels without the nails into the ground to correspond with the remaining grommet holes on the canvas awning.
Place a grommet hole over one wooden dowel. Cut a 30-foot piece of nylon rope in half with scissors. Tie the center of one piece of rope to the top of the dowel over the grommet. Tie the ends of the rope to tent stakes and pound them into the ground near the bottom of the dowel to secure the dowel in an upright position. Repeat to install and secure the remaining dowel.

I've been so antsy to share this recipe with you! It's one of those I-put-a-bite-in-my-mouth-and-suddenly-my-eyes-widened-to-the-size-of-Pluto dishes. One of those I-stared-at-Mike-impatiently-waiting-for-him-to-take-a-bite-and-have-Pluto-sized-eyes dishes! One of those I-could-eat-a-Pluto-sized-bowl-of-this-stuff dishes!
I've been trying to redeem myself for Mike's terrible birthday dinner disaster for awhile now. Sure, I've made some delectable things since then, but I knew my penance wouldn't be truly complete until I made him some really good pasta.
This recipe was one of the WOW ones I came across. The photo of the dish was submitted by Kate of Framed, who called it "extra special." That — combined with her charge to throw out all your other carbonara recipes — gave me confidence. I'm not going to lie, something about her blog's exuberant header photo probably also made be feel exuberant about linguine! Regardless of the reasons, I decided that this was the recipe I'd been searching for!
As if you needed any more encouragement to make this pasta, the original recipe is straight from Pioneer Woman's site (a Pastor Ryan recipe, for those of you who follow her posts). P-Dub has never steered me wrong, and on top of that, she's coming to Charlotte this Friday for a book signing! What a perfect time to make a meal from her blog.
I guess the only thing left to tell you about is the most important part: the taste. The last time I ate pasta carbonara was in Little Italy in San Diego, so the creamy, rich, buttery sauce and the salty punch of the pancetta was a wonderful memory. I have to say, though, this rendition was even better than the one I remember. Bunches of torn parsley add a fresh note to the otherwise deep and indulgent pasta.
One flavor I noticed that stood out was the wine, so pick a good one — but don't ask me how to do that! I picked my wine because it was white and had a penguin on the bottle. I got lucky, though, because it tasted perfect in the sauce. It was a Pinot Grigio, in case you want to replicate my random choice.
We paired our pasta with some cheesy garlic bread, and it was such a great combination. Actually, I considered making some big homemade garlic croutons to top the pasta itself, which would have been delectable if you want to give it a go. Make this as soon as you can manage to throw some linguine into your shopping cart. Bon Appétit!
Yields: about 4 servings, if you're us — perhaps 6 servings for normal folk.
1. Cut bacon into pieces about one inch wide. Cook until browned and crisp and set aside, saving bacon grease in the skillet.
2. Cook linguine in salted water until al dente.
3. Add chopped onions to bacon grease and let them cook down over a medium-high heat for a couple of minutes.
4. After the onions have cooked for a couple of minutes, throw in the garlic. Adding it after the onions have cooked a little will prevent the garlic from burning. After the onion and garlic have cooked for another couple of minutes, remove from the pan with a slotted spoon. Discard the grease.
5. Place the pan back on high heat until it starts to smoke a little. As soon as the pan begins to smoke, pour in the white wine (or chicken stock). Whisk until pan is thoroughly deglazed and all of the brown bits have come off of the bottom of the pan. Add 1 cup of chicken stock. Return onion and garlic to the pan. Let simmer over medium heat.
6. Crack four eggs into a large bowl. Add most of the Parmesan cheese, and roughly chop the parsley, adding it into the eggs as well. Leave a little Parmesan and parsley out for a garnish. Mix well with a fork.
5. Add the cooked hot pasta to the egg mixture and then add the onion mixture. Stir in ½ stick (1/4 cup) of butter and the cooked bacon. Mix it all together well. Pepper to taste. Garnish with parmesan and parsley. Throw out all previous carbonara recipes.
This version looks so good! I bet the parsley does kick in a little fresh flavor. Pasta carbonara is my go-to weeknight meal for when we have little to nothing in the house. I make mine with just eggs, bacon, parm, and pasta. I want to try it with pancetta one of these times. (I also made one a while ago with red wine, which was pretty interesting.) I'm sure you've more than redeemed yourself for Mike's b-day meal!
Okay, okay. I guess I have to try this now. I do love me some Pioneer Woman. I'm so jealous she's coming to your area this weekend! Have a blast!!
Yum, I have GOT to make this! I'm drooling on my keyboard right now!
This looks awesome. Will have to try making it for the Husband.
Tastespotting is basically one of my new-favorite-websites (it is, after all, how I discovered this blog!). Carbonara is such a great dish…and yeah the wine is KEY (as is good parmesan cheese). This looks delicious!
I've never made a great carbonara at home. I'm bookmarking this one.
I'm not sure about the heavy cream — I feel like it would dull the flavor. But you know, I always say you might as well try anything in the kitchen once 🙂 The pork stock substitution sounds fine. Let me know how it goes!
Made this for dinner tonight and it was fabulous!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Cristi!!
I loved, loved this dish. I went to the store to get pancetta and it was $5.99. For 3 ounces! I only bought two packs. I cooked it exactly as directed except for less pancetta. I will be making this again. My husband loved it as well. The parsley gave it such a fresh taste. Very good dish.
So glad you loved it, Michelle — it is a favorite of mine, too!
I had it again for lunch today. This is a great dish!
So glad to hear that, Melissa!

Stanley Nsoki reinforces the TSG defence
Bundesliga club TSG Hoffenheim have signed Stanley Nsoki. The 23-year-old central defender arrives in the Kraichgau from reigning Belgian champions Club Bruges. The former France U21 international has signed a contract with TSG until 30 June 2027.
"With his attributes, Stanley possesses everything we were looking for in the centre-back position. He's really quick, defends uncompromisingly and has a strong left foot. Furthermore, his age of 23 means he is a player who still has development potential but who already possesses sufficient experience at a high level," said TSG director of football Alexander Rosen of the new signing.
"When Hoffenheim indicated their interest, it quickly became clear to me that I wanted to take this step. The philosophy and style of football at TSG suits me perfectly and I find the Bundesliga extremely appealing," said Stanley Nsoki, who was one of ex-TSG boss Alfred Schreuder's key performers at Club Bruges.
Stanley Nsoki, who came through the youth ranks at Paris Saint-Germain before making the leap to the senior squad, won the French title and Super Cup with the capital club in 2017/18 and 2018/19. He then spent two more years in France with Nice, before making the switch to Club Bruges in Belgium's Jupiler League last summer. He made a total of 26 appearances in the league for the Belgian champions in the 2021/22 campaign, and also played five play-off matches and three Belgian cup ties. Club Bruges retained their Belgian title and the Super Cup at the end of the season. On the European front, he also made six appearances for Bruges in the Champions League last term.

Q: Is it possible to use android.widget.chronometer inside the actionbar? I wanted to add a timer inside the actionbar. I already found this solution here: Is it possible to add a timer to the actionbar on android? which uses compatibility:actionViewClass="android.widget.TextView"
and then using a timer wich updates on each tick the string value.
I wandered if anyone already tried using app:actionViewClass="android.widget.chronometer"
It would be something like that for the menu:
<menu
  xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
     <item android:id="@+id/action_live_clock"
       android:title=""
       app:showAsAction="always"
       app:actionViewClass="android.widget.chronometer"/>
</menu>

And then in the corresponding activity:
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu)
{
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.test_chrono, menu);
        MenuItem timerItem = menu.findItem(R.id.action_live_clock);
        Chronometer timer = (Chronometer) timerItem.getActionView();
        timer.setBase(SystemClock.elapsedRealtime());
        timer.start();
        return true;
}

But when I check after getActionView the timer value is Null. Did I miss something or is this just not possible?
(as ActionBar I am using the appcompat from the latest support library)

A: You can allways add a custom view to the actionbar/toolbar. Just google for that.


Looking at my Sarah Bernhardt peonies while I'm reading your post. Love the extra information about them and how they symbolize marriage.
I am sorry to read of illness in the family and will pray. It is never easy to have one's parent's health compromised or to be concerned about more than one family member at a time. I am glad that you find serenity in the garden. Thank you for sharing your beautiful peonies. I am sharing mine in the morning...all of them! Don't rush over to see them as it is a bit embarrassing. When I asked Siri for the extended weather report, she told me a week of rain so I promptly went out and cut myself all but two. No sense in not enjoying them.
So sorry you have some family health worries, and will cover you in prayer.
Nothing brightens a room like a pretty flower. My thoughts are with you and your family at this difficult time. A big hug.
Sending you a hug Lorrie, your family will certainly be in my prayers. Beautiful flowers.
Gorgeos Peonies. My mom has a red one. I use to have a pink/white one but it died one winter. - So sorry to hear of family health issues, prayers for healing for all involved.
Saying a prayer for your family right now . . . for those who are struggling with their health and for those who love them. May the One Who Sees offer grace and guidance and strength.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful peonies. They are romantic and stunning!
Peonies are a top favourite... love their blowsy petals and their fragrance.
Adding a prayer for your family ... grace, peace, and a turn around in health issues and circumstances. I'm grateful for beauty in nature and our gardens ... a gift from the Father when thoughts are troubled.
Dear Lorrie, I can totally relate, things are heartbreakingly difficult on a number of fronts in my little world and often the best thing is to go outside and cut some grass, pull some weeds, prune some branches, smell the flowers, take some pictures. Bring order the only place that it seems possible. Praying for Auntie Ruth and your other family members. Much love.
Prayers are being sent your way. Thank you for sharing those gorgeous flowers.
Dearest Lorrie; Oh, what sweet and gorgeous flower your peonies are♫♫♫ Pink is my favorite color. We used to enjoy some of them before having my husband's hobby room to cut our small garden.
Prayers for your family from me as well, Dear friend. With our age, me and my husband had been through tough time.
I always appreciate your sweet comments,Dear friend.
Oh yes, I will pray. Gardening is the best therapy and prayer time.
Your photograph's are just lovely.
I so adore peonies, they are one of my favourite flowers.
I am so sorry to read about your families health issues, sending my thoughts and prayers.
Lorrie I had NO IDEA that peony bushes could bloom up to 100 years. I am on year two of trying to grow them here. (They say it takes 3 years before they blossom.) So I shall look forward to next spring. I think I will also plant a few more.
Your peonies are gorgeous! I have pink ones and their blooms were short-lived. I think they got fried by the extreme temperatures (high 30s) last week. I'll remember your family in my prayers.
Sending good thoughts over the miles for your dear MIL and your family. The peonies are beautiful especially the delicate pink ones. (I remember peonies and hope for some to still be in bloom when we get home to. Oregon).
Your scrumptious photographs of these beautiful peonies are greatly appreciated! Sending blessings and prayers for healing for all, in whatever form brings most peace.
So beautiful! I brought in the last of my peonies 12 days ago...and am still enjoying them. Sorry to hear of all the issues you are dealing with right now. Thinking of & praying for you!
Prayers sent for Tim's mother. Hope by now she is doing better.
Oh the peonies just sing to my heart. I had to buy some at the market yesterday, as I just had to have some. We have planted several peonies, but only one bloomed about a month ago. Maybe next year they will feel more like blooming.
I am sorry to hear about the health problems in your family, Lorrie. I will keep you all in my thoughts. Sometimes it all seems to happen at once and is, indeed, a bit overwhelming. When I faced a similar situation a few years ago, the first place I would head is the garden. Sometimes just to sit and cry, other times to get lost in my weeding as a way to get away from it all. The garden can be very therapeutic. May you find peace and comfort there.
Your peonies are just beautiful. Ours are long gone now so I enjoyed seeing yours and I am able to imagine their delightful scent.
I'm really saddened by the news of Tim's mother and other family health issues dear Lorrie. Hopefully all will improve very soon.
Meanwhile enjoy your garden. . . . . . hopefully being out there with those beautiful flowers surrounding you will help bring you some peaceful and happy moments during the rough times.
Hi Lori. The peonies here are finished, except for the late bloomer. I suppose that is why we love them so much and for their delicate fragrance and petals and rich color. We do hope that your mother in law regains her health soon. Our prayers for her healing.
The peonies were remarkable beautiful this year. I saw mine as fat orbs ready to burst....and then I went to work on the mainland for a week and came home to tattered, overblown blossoms. I was so disappointed to miss THE peony week. Last night a dear friend came over with a lovely big bouquet from her more-sheltered garden. Joy!
I am so sorry to read that there are health problems in your extended family. It is a time of life. I understand and will hold your family and Tim's mother in prayer.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful flowers.
Lori, I will remember Tim's mother in prayer, and both of you as you watch over her, and other loved ones facing their worries. I can understand that your lovely garden must be a solace to you and the peonies must be a true gift now. I showed my husband your pictures and we both admire them greatly. The old Festiva Maxima at our old house always bloomed in May and there was nothing comparable to bringing some in for vases around the house.
Lorrie, I do so LOVE peonies! They have the most gorgeous blooms! I am still waiting on mine to start blooming, this will be its third year, and it is quite slow. I think perhaps it needs more sun. I may move it this fall.
I will be praying for your husband's mother, my MIL is still having terrible health struggles too, so difficult. I hope that you find some time to relax and enjoy the summer, and will be in prayer for all the extended members of your family in need of prayer. Our God is able to meet and supply all these needs. Hugs to you today dear friend!
Popping back in to say that I am still praying for you and yours . . .
Praying for Tim's mother now, and for the other needs that the Lord knows. I love that He knows all the details, so I don't have to. Asking Him to meet the needs and minister to you all.
Such beauty in your peonies and words. I wish ours had produced more this year but maybe next year. Meanwhile I can enjoy your images. I'm sorry to hear of the current challenges in your extended family. I will pray for Tim's mom and the family.

According to Assistant Prosectuor Brian Pollock, who handled the case, Casale entered a guilty plea in January to one count of second-degree vehicular homicide and one count of third-degree causing serious bodily injury while violating the law to protect public health and dafety.
On Friday, Superior Court Judge Hon. Michael Ravin sentenced Casale to 10 years with the plea agreement.
"The statements from the family make it clear that this was a tremendous loss not only to them but to everyone who knew Megan," Pollock said after hearing from the victim's husband, brother, father and mother. "She was a remarkable woman who was taken far too soon. No amount of prison time can compensate for their loss, but we hope the resolution of the criminal case will give them some solace."

Namely, when either the MacBook Pro's solid state drive or main logic board experiences failure, both need to be replaced simultaneously. Apple's memo doesn't specify an underlying reason as to why both components may fail in tandem, or what percentage of units may be at risk of being affected.
Apple appears to have authorized free repairs for this issue, in or out of warranty. If there is liquid damage or accidental damage, however, out-of-warranty fees may apply. Apple quotes a turnaround time of roughly five to seven days.
To initiate a repair, visit the Get Support page on Apple's website and select "Mac" → "Mac notebooks" → "Hardware Issues" → "The topic is not listed," explain the issue, and select continue. Then, select "Bring in for Repair" to schedule an appointment with an Apple Authorized Service Provider or Genius Bar.
There are also options to contact Apple's support advisors by phone or online chat to initiate a mail-in repair in select countries.
This issue could explain why the 13-inch MacBook Pro with function keys temporarily faced extended shipping estimates on Apple's online store last month, as Apple may have implemented a fix, although the brief shortage could have been purely coincidental. We've reached out to Apple for comment on the matter.
12:30 p.m. Pacific Time: Updated with corrected information about out-of-warranty fees.
So Apple finds a defect but will charge people who's warranty has expired?
So, what happens if we get this out of warraty period? Why don't they issue a recall... this seems pretty serious enough. So, if my SSD fails out of warraty period, Do I have to pay for a new motherboard that was not damaged by my use? Makes little sense to me.
Apple has always been a company that charges more for their products. Some have criticised this but most of their customers (including me) have been happy paying more knowing that we will be taken care of if there is a problem, due to the legendary Apple support.
I hate to be the guy who brings up Steve Jobs, but the reason why Apple is a reliable trusted brand today is because he implemented this. He charged an amount which was much higher than the industry but then took care of all of his customers. I remember my friend had a few issues with his MacBook Pro 15 back in the day and after the third issue in a year, the Genius handling it straight up replaced the whole machine with the latest model.
If Tim Cook started Apple, it would probably be a very profitable company but it would nowhere stand for the reliability the Apple brand stands for.
Instead of acknowledging the mistake and promising free repairs on ALL machines affected, regardless of warranty status, they pull this crap. Unfortunately, it's the same for iPhone repairs, Mac repairs, etc.
I really hate this new direction Apple is heading in, where the reliability of their products is poor and the customer service is getting worse. Profits are going up I guess and by the time people wise up, Tim Cook will probably retire.
Good luck fixing these once your (usually 1 year) warranty expires. "Oh your SSD failed? Time to replace both your SSD and the entire logic board! You bet it's going to cost a lot!".
This isn't some big thing.
Just limited TO ALL latest 13-inch MacBook Pro models with function keys.
So in Apples words: This is why you need a touchbar so your function keys wont fail LOL.
As if the entire 16/17 mbp/mb line had reliable keyboards lol. If people keep buying their crap to their eyes it's a success, "most pre-ordered in history" would say Phil or "a fantastic machine" (with toy keyboard) Craig.
Unless you have a small "ding" or scratch on your MacBook. In that case, they'll first have to fix those(of course no warranty for that) before they can fix the issue under warranty.
Nope, used them for over 30 years. Back in the old days whenever something like this happened, rare as it was back then, Apple fixed the machines warranty or not. It's a totally different company now in how they treat their customers. My last iPhone, which was under warranty, had the swollen battery problem that was talked about quite a bit in the news. Sent it in for a battery replacement and they denied it saying the problem was caused by exposure to water. That was pure b.s. as a drop of water had never touched the phone. After some legal pressure and pointing out to them they had a pattern of denying warranty claims using the same excuse they decided honored the warranty and later admitted they had gotten a bad batch of batteries, which had nothing to do with water. However, they only made the admission after they were hit wth a class action lawsuit by all the folks who had "exposed their phones to water."
You would think they would learn their lesson, but fast forward a couple of years and my wife's iPad's USB port goes bad. Again, this was a problem that was mentioned a lot in the tech news. We had Apple Care and sent it in for repair and guess what? They denied the repair and surprise, surprise said the tablet had been exposed to water. Not to bore you with details, but another class action lawsuit later and the issue was remedied. You shouldn't have to sue a company to get them to honor their warranties, especially when they've produced a defective product. As I said, they've gone from being very customer oriented to customer hostile and I no longer use their phones or tablets and am very likely on my last laptop. I've given them a lot of money over the decades running my company with Macs, but it ain't the same organization it used to be. Tim Cook is taking advantage of the sheep and one day he's going to wake up and find they've migrated to another pasture.
