Ooooh la la, these Regal French wedding ideas are fit for royalty at the Alta Peruvian Lodge in Utah. The stunning mountain backdrop sets a romantic scene that embodies the look and feel of the French alps. Betsy Couture and a incredibly talented team of vendors brought all the romance to life in shades of blue with French inspired dessert, a stunning table scape and a romantic vintage getaway car for two.
The Utah mountains are calling and you must have your wedding here. Not convinced? Then keep scrolling to read more about this stylish day. We also have a full gallery of images beautifully captured by the General Manager himself, Todd Collins. Enjoy!
From Betsy Couture: The majestic Wasatch Mountains in Utah are naturally grand and beckon magnificence, opulence and grandeur to stand alongside their beauty. The unique style and allure of Château de Versailles in the Île-de-France with its refined elegance and grand perspective provide the perfect partnership for the splendor, enormity and intimacy that the mountains provide. To offset the simple grandeur of the mountains, we chose ornate, lush, sumptuous styles.
The bride's silk and lace peplum ball gown is dignified and royal, while still being whisper soft and feminine. This unique gown can be worn two ways. The sweeping silk champagne gown, with side pockets, is perfect for the ceremony. But when the party begins, to bring her into the 21st Century, the separate ball gown skirt is removed to reveal a sassy-short pencil dress. As a final detail, we adorned her edgy hair with a matching pillbox hat and she became ready to party under the stars. Our groom donned an exquisite tuxedo with a change of ties and vests to match his bride.
The ostentatious display of royal power in classical French majesty was our inspiration for the table décor. The towering floral arrangements amid taper-filled candelabras and cascading greens echoed both the sweetness and opulence of the formal gardens. Napkins folded in the traditional fleur-de-lis shape stood atop the French china, Aux Caille (Golden Quail) by Haviland, Limoges.
Traditional French delicacies graced the golden menu. The mahogany table and chairs, gold damask embroidered seat cushions, fine linens topped with multiple mats and chargers, gold ware and gold scripted place cards embody French royalty drama. Todd Collins captured all of this in stunning photos that embody the amazing splendor of French royalty in the majesty of the mountains.
From Todd Collins, Photographer and GM of the lodge: The Alta Peruvian Lodge is a ski area hotel during the Alta ski season, and from June through September it is available for spectacular mountain wedding ceremonies and receptions. The magnificent rise of nearby Mount Superior is the backdrop for our incredible outdoor ceremonies, with the Dining Room and Alf Engen Room as the rustic settings for catered dinners and dancing.

Update: The Frozen Broadway musical released an official first look at the actors who play Anna, Elsa, Kristoff, and Hans in costume. Our original story continues below.
Do you like your wallet? Well, that's too bad, because it's time to let it go.
The days are counting down until the musical adaptation of Frozen premieres on Broadway in February, and we've gotten our first look at the elaborate stage production — as well as a first look at the skyrocketing prices as tickets went on sale this week.


Sandra finally got paperback copies of Shannon Dermotts books from Cecilia for Christmas and Cecilia got Hush Hush in hardcover from Sandra. Both of us have read them but we just needed to own them in our bookcases lol.
I've heard great things about the Hush, Hush books. There's ones that I'd definitely love to find the time to read.
Nice! I don't know these reads but I hope you enjoy them!
Free eBooks will be my undoing. Great line up!

Website category: Anime 1990s
Review date: 24 February 2006
It's not hard to find anime in which characters from present-day Japan are whisked away to a fantasy world. The Twelve Kingdoms, Fushigi Yuugi, Magic Knight Rayearth and many more all do this, often with impressive results. Those Who Hunt Elves doesn't so much fall into the same category as strap on its hob-nailed boots and jump in feet-first to give the rest of the genre a good kicking.
The series rests on an appealingly warped premise. When I told my sister about it, her reaction was, "Who on Earth thinks up stories like that?" The answer of course is, "Someone in Japan." Junpei, Airi and Ritsuko must track down the fragments of a magical spell to get home to the real world. So far, so predictable. We've seen such quest structures in a thousand fantasy epics. The twist here is that the spell fragments have all been tattooed somewhere on the bodies of female elves. It's elf-stripping time!
I bought the series anticipating the lowest of lowbrow fun. With Neanderthal expectations I watched the first episode... and hated it. My main problem was with the charmless regulars. They seemed far too competent and efficient, turning what should have been a comedic misadventure into a military operation. Airi and Ritsuko were dull and Junpei was a thuggish brute. I was even tempted to switch to the English audio track in search of a less obnoxious voice actor, and it takes a lot to make me do that. It doesn't help that we start in media res, with no origin to ease us into the characters.
However I'd paid good money for this thing, so I stuck with it. It improved, and improved, and then improved yet more. I've never seen anything keep building like this show. The characters blossomed, the stories started drawing me in and it became strong and enjoyable even though it wasn't making me laugh. Then suddenly it was making me laugh! After that Season Two leapt forward again, as if the creators had finally decided what made their show tick. By the time I reached the end, I thought it was a rollicking series and as much fun as anything in my collection. It may not be the kind of richly layered narrative that's crying out for a rewatch, but it's worth a look if only for its political incorrectness.
The characters develop too, thank goodness. Junpei is a strangely endearing dickhead, with his simple love of eating, fighting and screaming. Cecilia the elf transforms the team chemistry when she joins. What's more, our heroes are even capable of nobility when they're not being elf-molesting bastards. To quote another reviewer, "they're not evil, although they're not very popular."
There are other comic fantasy anime, e.g. Slayers, Rune Soldier, but Those Who Hunt Elves can make them look slightly staid. Those shows stay within the limits of their fantasy worlds, whereas this one's anarchic. Even without the culture clash provided by our three heroes, it's set in a surreal world that's already peculiar before we get direct borrowings from the Brothers Grimm or an army of Santa Clauses. One episode is built entirely around Junpei's need to go to the toilet. We might meet Jack and the Beanstalk or the Big Bad Wolf, which given our heroes' bruisingly direct methods can be extremely amusing. Junpei the martial arts expert is a one-man demolition squad. Cecilia knows magic. Airi the superstar can outwit even the smartest opposition. Finally Ritusko is a gun-toting tomboy, armed with machine guns, pistols, grenades and most alarmingly a tank. Did I mention their tank? It's a Type 74, a Japanese-made light tank that was first built in the 1970s. Ritsuko calls it Mike.
Put this lot in a volatile situation and their, uh, pro-active tendencies will soon kick off a spiral of ever-increasing weirdness. Who needs enemies? They'll make their own!
The show has rough edges. It has my least favourite thing ever, characters commenting on the fact that they're in a fictional show ("only a few minutes after the opening credits and we've already found our elf!"), although later this thankfully diminishes. Plot development isn't really a concern, but the fact that these 24 episodes are really two 12-episode series gives a stronger sense of story progression than you'd think, if only by accident.
The animation is, um, functional. No one's going to mistake Those Who Hunt Elves for The Twelve Kingdoms, but in one sense that's almost a blessing. More realistic art might have sat oddly with the show's weirdness and turned the elf-stripping sequences into something they're not meant to be. This isn't a fanservice show. The disrobings are basically an excuse for Junpei to get slapped, not for the animators to draw naughty bits. We never see anything and even if we had, with this kind of cartoonish art who'd be interested anyway?
I should mention the theme music, which rocks. I loved Season One's title sequence, but Season Two's is even cooler. Overall this is a bizarre show with no great ambitions beyond cheap jokes, but once it gets on a roll it's gloriously demented. It can be funny, surreal and even at times surprisingly touching. Just don't judge it by the first few episodes, which are rubbish.

Only A Prayer Meeting
Studies on Prayer Meetings and Prayer Meeting Addresses
By: Charles Haddon Spurgeon (Author)
Category: Sermon Helps, Sermons
Powerful Preaching Package
Spurgeon Collection
20 Books for $20 Bundle
Forty Addresses at Metropolitan Tabernacle and other Prayer-Meetings.
Charles Haddon Spurgeon used to address his church at midweek meetings as well as the powerful sermons on Sundays. These addresses were generally more informal in tone and were designed to supply motivation for the church to pray. They are classic Spurgeon in a shorter format.
Together this collection is charming, challenging and cheering! If you wanted to find out how Spurgeon fuelled his church for everyday Christian living and a life of prayer then there is no better starting place.
Few people in history can be known by one name and have it ring true with their audience, and "Spurgeon" is one of them. Over time, Spurgeon has become known and revered as the "Prince of Preachers". In the last 200 years he has been one of the most influential men for not only Preachers of the Gospel but for those who have not had the opportunity to hear and receive the Gospel message. He wrote tirelessly over his life, and WORDsearch Bible Software is committed to bring as many of Spurgeon's works as possible to you in electronic form.
The details of Charles Haddon Spurgeon's life still continue to amaze one and all. He was born in Kelvedon, Essex, England, on June 19, 1834. He accepted Christ in 1850 at the age of 15. By age 16, he preached his first sermon in 1851, and by age 20, Spurgeon had already preached over 600 sermons. In 1854, Spurgeon was asked to become pastor of the New Park Street Chapel, one of the sixth largest Baptist Churches in London.
The 1200 seat Chapel had previously been pastored by Dr. John Gill among others, and it carried a rich heritage with it. Although the Church was located in the midst of a filthy industrial district which was hard to reach, by 1855, it was obvious that the Church must start meeting at the Exter Hall while the Church building was expanded. When the expansion was completed, it still was too small and the congregation was forced to start meeting at the Surey Music Hall. By 1856, over 10,000 people would crowd the hall just to get a chance to hear Spurgeon preach a sermon.
To accommodate the growing number of people, the church voted to build a new sanctuary and to change the name of the Church to the Metropolitan Tabernacle. On March 31, 1861, the first service was held in the sanctuary, with a capacity of 5,600 was the largest non-conformist church in the world.
When Spurgeon came to New Park Street in 1854 it had a membership of just 232 members. By the end of 1891, 14,460 souls had been baptized and added to the church with a standing membership of 5311. Spurgeon ministered there for over 30 years. It is estimated that over his lifetime he preached to over 10,000,000 people.
I've always loved Charles Spurgeon for his plain-spokenness, his courage, his enthusiasm for the Word of God, his love for the truth, his command of the English language, and his ability to use simple, vivid language to make difficult truths inescapably clear.
Dr John MacArthur, Pastor

Recently available events have been produced that put at probability the presence of the exact US money and just about all other fiat currencies. There is two important gold depositories in typically the world that hold or get used most of the very tour's coins and bullion for your countries that do hold their own. They are the main Loan company of England together with the Government Reserve Loan provider of Brand new York.
The main first celebration occurred inside first 2011 while Venezuela's Lead designer Hugo Chavez publicised this Venezuela had been getting rear virtually all the country's gold bars stored for the Standard bank of He uk. While launching this, structure was presently ongoing so that you can construct vaults at property meant for filing Venezuela's 250 additionally considerable number of gold bullion. Delivery of the bullion taken place before the very end regarding the yr. The party through Venezuela towards repatriate each of the country's rare metal is major. This particular is often the primary worldwide danger signal in which the Financial institution or even The united kingdomt as well as the New York Govt Reserve Loan provider now, can find a decrease of confidence concerning nations nonetheless storing their very own bullion within their vaults.
There is a high chances that some of the bullion trapped in these bankers vaults is in fact, no a bit longer right now there. As a substitute, most of the coins and bullion filed possesses probably really been replaced with We. U. U's. Hugo Chavez appeared to be in line, frustrating the revisit of Venezuela's gold. This can be a first approve, a match modifier, in the direction of the collapse of the very bucks plus all different correios currency. In cases where even more depositor states fall into line wanting to know for their very own gold to become returned a universal panic will develop. From that phase now there may become a good contest among the majority of the exact depositor nations around the world, to be able to retrieve their own bullion prior to a authentic yellow metal still in safe-keeping is all wiped out.
The 2nd significant occurrence occurred into beginning about February this coming year. India has already made an understanding with Armed forces africa to instantly purchase oil by paying for it with platinum, thus scrapping the bucks. This is certainly another enormous sport modifying occurrence, for the reason that this move by Asia and Armed forces asia directly poises the lifestyle of often the "petrol dollar". All of the crude oil that is definitely bought all-around the universe ought to be paid for 1st by means of swapping the main bidder's nationwide currency exchange towards ALL OF US bucks, subsequently make transactions just for the acrylic purchased here dollars. Given that US us dollars have recently been the very world structure regarding change just for buying oil since the particular dollar had become the very earth's source foreign currency following Bretton Forest Contract appeared to be signed around 1944.
The matter now is the fact that India finds a method to elude around making use of the dollar to cover Iran's petroleum. If states suddenly not any longer are necessary to alter their values into bucks to acquire acrylic, and are can be use their own personal national currency or platinum to obtain necessary oil, the main level involving the dollars as the actual earth's source foreign exchange can be in danger. At various point issue situation have been allowed to continue the particular deterioration with the dollar itself, might be imminent.

Keith O'Brien will present his new non-fiction title, Fly Girls, at Mystic's Bank Square Books next Thursday evening, August 23, from 6:30 – 7:30 p.m. This event is free and open to the public; copies of the book will be available for purchase/signing. Location: 53 W. Main Street.
Today, I'm joined by Keith O'Brien.
Keith O'Brien
Keith is the author of the bestseller Fly Girls: How Five Daring Women Defied All Odds and Made Aviation History (Eamon Dolan Books/Houghton Mifflin Harcourt)—a newly published work of non-fiction. His previous books include Outside Shot: Big Dreams, Hard Times and One County's Quest for Basketball Greatness (2013) and Catching the Sky (2016), co-authored with extreme sports star Colten Moore. A recipient of the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism and finalist for the PEN/ESPN Award for Literary Sportswriting, O'Brien is a former reporter for the Boston Globe and a frequent contributor to National Public Radio. He makes his home in New Hampshire.
Praise for Fly Girls:
"O'Brien details in crisp and engaging writing how his subjects came to love aviation, along with their struggles and victories with flying, the rampant sexism they experienced, and the hard choices they faced regarding work and family. Highly recommended for readers with an interest in aviation history, women's history, cultural history, and 20th-century history."—Library Journal, STARRED review
"Journalist O'Brien tells the exciting story of aviators who, though they did not break the aviation industry's glass ceiling, put a large crack in it….This fast-paced, meticulously researched history will appeal to a wide audience both as an entertaining tale of bravery and as an insightful look at early aviation."—Publishers Weekly
"A vivid, suspenseful story of women determined to defy gravity—and men—to fulfill their lofty dreams."—Kirkus Reviews
"Air races captivated the nation during the golden age of aviation in the 1920s and 1930s, and few participants drew more attention than the female pilots who challenged the male-dominated field. O'Brien focuses on five of those women…The narrative flows easily….as O'Brien shifts between them, showing their competitive spirit and camaraderie even in the face of the trying circumstances of the first Women's Air Derby in 1929."—Booklist
The untold story of five women who fought to compete against men in the high-stakes national air races of the 1920s and 1930s — and won
Between the world wars, no sport was more popular, or more dangerous, than airplane racing. Thousands of fans flocked to multi‑day events, and cities vied with one another to host them. The pilots themselves were hailed as dashing heroes who cheerfully stared death in the face. Well, the men were hailed. Female pilots were more often ridiculed than praised for what the press portrayed as silly efforts to horn in on a manly, and deadly, pursuit. Fly Girls recounts how a cadre of women banded together to break the original glass ceiling: the entrenched prejudice that conspired to keep them out of the sky.
O'Brien weaves together the stories of five remarkable women: Florence Klingensmith, a high‑school dropout who worked for a dry cleaner in Fargo, North Dakota; Ruth Elder, an Alabama divorcee; Amelia Earhart, the most famous, but not necessarily the most skilled; Ruth Nichols, who chafed at the constraints of her blue‑blood family's expectations; and Louise Thaden, the mother of two young kids who got her start selling coal in Wichita. Together, they fought for the chance to race against the men — and in 1936 one of them would triumph in the toughest race of all.
Like Hidden Figures and Girls of Atomic City, Fly Girls celebrates a little-known slice of history in which tenacious, trail-blazing women braved all obstacles to achieve greatness.
Now, Keith O'Brien reveals the origins of his new book …
John Valeri: What inspired you to explore the topic of women's aviation for Fly Girls – and how do you feel that your book adds to the "hidden history" motif that has become popular in recent years?
Keith O'Brien: All history is hidden until it is told. So I'm not sure this motif is any different today than it was in the past. Seabiscuit was a hidden story, until Laura Hillenbrand wrote it. The Boys in the Boat was a hidden story too, until Daniel James Brown wrote it. I was drawn to this story for the same reasons why they were likely drawn to theirs: these characters had been forgotten, they were likable and compelling, they faced impossible odds, and then triumphed in the end. I stumbled onto the idea by accident. But once I started digging into it, spending long hours in old newspaper microfilm at the library, I just knew there was something here – a story that needed to be told.
JV: In addition to popular figures like Amelia Earhart, you tell the stories of lesser known women pilots. How did you go about choosing which figures to include – and was there one story that you found particularly compelling? If so, why?
KO: Storytelling is always about choices – what to include and what to leave out. And there were certainly lots of colorful characters, male and female, on American airfields in the 1920s and '30s. As I writer, I loved so many of them. But this is where you need to know your story, know your narrative. Once I knew that, I knew which characters to include. Organically, they just belonged – because they were friends or rivals, because they were interacting with one another, because they were driving the story. Lots of women flew airplanes between 1927 and 1937 – the decade when Fly Girls takes place. But I was looking to tell one specific story – about women fighting for the right to fly and race airplanes. If I wanted to do that, these five characters had to be at the heart of the narrative. Each of them is important.
JV: These stories resonate, given the gender bias that still exists today. Can you talk a bit about the challenges these women faced in the pursuit of their passion, and how their experiences are relevant to our consideration of male/female "roles"?
KO: These women faced adversity at every turn – cultural norms, societal expectations, blatant discrimination and sexism, and even banishment. At the turning point in this story, air race officials would ban the woman from flying, from racing, and the air race officials didn't even try to hide their motivations. They publicly stated that women didn't belong. And still, these women kept flying, kept going. They refused to quit. Sadly, that's a story that is all too relevant today. Women are still fighting expectations about what they can and cannot do.
JV: You are a veteran journalist. In what ways did that lineage benefit the research and writing of this book – and what did you find to be the most liberating and challenging aspects of writing a full-length non-fiction piece?
KO: This is my third non-fiction book. In 2013, I wrote a book chronicling one year in Kentucky high school basketball called Outside Shot: Big Dreams, Hard Times and One County's Quest for Basketball Greatness. And in 2016, I co-authored extreme sports star Colten Moore's memoir about his brother's death. That was called Catching the Sky. So I've done this before. The important thing with a 100,000-word story is staying organized and knowing your narrative. I don't outline my books in any traditional way. But I absolutely know where I'm going – what I need to tell a story and what I don't. And then I go get what I need, pursuing the story like any journalist would.
JV: In your opinion, what is the role of the bookstore within its community – and how can/do author events enhance the reader/writer/bookseller relationship?
KO: A local bookstore, to me, is everything. It's a gathering place. A place to go for inspiration. A place to go with your children. And speaking now strictly as a reader, I know that I always love attending author events at a bookstore. It's a way to stay connected and a way to learn. There's nothing better than sitting in a bookstore, surrounded by a crowd of strangers, listening to an author tell his or her story. I've met some of my literary heroes at such events. And the cool thing is, my kids have too. They love going to a bookstore to see an author they know.
JV: Leave us with a teaser: What comes next?
KO: I'm not sure, exactly. With Fly Girls finished now and on the bookshelves, I'm looking forward to doing some work again this fall for National Public Radio. I just love that medium for telling stories. But I've also got a few new book ideas rattling around in my head. These ideas are just that right now – ideas that need shaping, need forming. But I'm excited to dig into them.

Each year the Department supports approximately 50 students, most as teaching assistants. Unlike many other universities, during the first three years of study teaching assistants do not teach their own classes, but instead meet with students in small recitation sections. This means that the time required for teaching duties here is generally less than the time required at other institutions.
Scholarships, Assistantships, and Teacher Training
Some advanced students (usually those who have continued beyond the fourth year) have the opportunity to teach their own sections of lower division courses. Students participate in a teaching workshop, and each student's development as a teacher is monitored and guided through both faculty and student evaluations. Exceptional performance in teaching is recognized annually by Excellence in Teaching awards of the College of Arts and Sciences.

Are people with Parkinson disease depressed or demoralized?
People with Parkinson disease who show signs of depression may actually have a condition called demoralization. "The distinction between depression and demoralization is important because the treatment approaches are different," said study author Brian Koo, MD, of Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut, and a member of the American Academy of Neurology. "Demoralization may be better treated with cognitive-behavioral therapy rather than antidepressant medication, which is often prescribed for depression."

Celtics' Jabari Bird is facing several charges related to an alleged domestic assault. Here's what we know.
The 24-year-old guard pleaded not guilty Thursday to the charges against him.
Jabari Bird appears for his arraignment on domestic violence charges at Brighton Municipal Court.
Celtics guard Jabari Bird was arraigned in Brighton Municipal Court Thursday morning and is being charged with assault and battery, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, strangulation, and kidnapping, according to the Suffolk County District Attorney's office.
Bird pleaded not guilty to the charges and was held on $50,000 bail, which the judge ordered to be paid in cash despite objections from Bird's attorney. Bird's agent, Aaron Goodwin, posted bail for his client Thursday afternoon.
What authorities say happened
According to the police report, Bird was arrested Friday night in Brighton for a domestic incident in which he allegedly assaulted his girlfriend, a student at a local college, over a period of four hours in his residence. The victim told police Bird choked her, threw her against a wall, and kicked her multiple times in the stomach. The victim said she lost consciousness at one point and found herself on the floor under Bird's bed when she awoke.
"She stated that he had strangled her approximately a dozen times, where he had a pattern of when she began to go 'limp,' he would stop and allow her to regain her breath, and then continuing to strangle her again," the police report said.
Bird prevented the victim from leaving his home and, at one point, dragged her away from the door by the ankles, according to the report. The victim said Bird locked her in the bathroom and he was passed out when she finally emerged after an extended period of time. The victim told police Bird displayed "seizure-like" symptoms.
"She stated that she then picked him off the ground and managed to put him on the bed where he was asleep," the police report said. "Victim stated that she then left the apartment, and took custody of Bird's friend's vehicle and drove back to her dorm."
The victim was treated for injuries sustained at Boston Children's Hospital. An officer observed cut marks on the victim's neck and a bruise on her left ear, according to the report. The victim told the officer she also had multiple bumps on her head. The doctor who treated the victim confirmed the aforementioned injuries and also observed internal bleeding behind the victim's ear.
"No one should have to live in an abusive relationship," Suffolk County District Attorney Daniel Conley said in a press release. "Anyone living in fear of domestic violence can count on our office for a safe, supportive, victim-centered environment. As this case illustrates, a trusted figure in a survivor's life can make disclosing abuse to law enforcement easier. It might be a friend, coach, family member, or co-worker. It might be police or prosecutors directly. But no matter the circumstances and no matter who you are, it's important to remember that there are people ready to help you."
What Bird is saying

According to the police report, Bird sent the victim a text message in which he threatened to kill himself if she didn't come back to his residence. The victim sent the message to an individual identified as "Witness 3," who called 911. Bird was then taken to St. Elizabeth's Medical Center for "an evaluation."
Bird's arraignment was delayed due to an extended hospitalization following his arrest. His next court date is scheduled for Oct. 25.
In a statement obtained by ESPN's Marc J. Spears, Bird said, "The information that has been released does not tell the full story. I do not condone violence against women."
Bird's attorney, Brian Kelly, said his client would be supervised by his high school basketball coach, along with Mechalle Brown, the mother of his teammate Jaylen Brown, to fulfill his conditions of release.
What the Celtics are saying
The Celtics released the following statement after Bird's arraignment: "Most importantly, our thoughts are with the victim of this incident. The Celtics organization deplores domestic violence of any kind, and we are deeply disturbed by the allegations against Jabari Bird. Pursuant to Domestic Violence Policy in the NBA's labor agreement, matters of this kind are handled by the League Office, not the team, and so the Celtics will be working with both the league and local authorities to assist in their ongoing investigations. The team will have no further comment at this time."
An NBA spokesman also issued a statement, via The Athletic's Shams Charania: "The allegations are disturbing and we are conducting a full investigation of the matter. We have been in contact with local authorities since learning of the incident."
According to the joint NBA/NBPA policy on domestic violence, sexual assault, and child abuse, "acts that constitute domestic violence, sexual assault, and child abuse are prohibited at all times and regardless of where they occur." The league defines domestic violence as "any actual or attempted violent act that is committed by one party in an intimate or family relationship against another party in that relationship.
"Such an act may include physical assault or battery, sexual assault, stalking, harassment, or other forms of physical or psychological abuse. It may also include behavior that intimidates, manipulates, humiliates, isolates, frightens, terrorizes, coerces, threatens, injures, or places another person in fear of bodily harm."
Bird said in his statement he will be "taking some time away from the team."
"I apologize to my family, the Celtics organization, my teammates, the fans and the NBA for the unnecessary distraction that I have caused," he said. "I am hopeful that in due time and process, I will be able to regain everyone's trust."
Boston selected Bird with the 58th overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft. Signed to a one-year, two-way contract, he spent the majority of his rookie season with Boston's G-League affiliate, the Maine Red Claws. Bird then signed a two-year, standard NBA contract in July — making him an official member of the Celtics' 15-man roster — after averaging 16.8 points on 57 percent shooting in summer league.

What Mattress Firmness is Right for Me?
The firmness of your mattress is entirely a personal decision based on your comfort and support needs - there is no right or wrong firmness. However, with so much choice you may find it difficult to decide what level of firmness is best for you!
To help you to find your perfect mattress firmness, we have assigned firmness ratings to all our mattresses, based on our decades of experience and the manufacturer's description. We categorise our mattresses from 1 to 6, where 1 is the softest and 6 is the firmest.
Our softest firmness rating is ideal for those who prefer to sleep on a super soft surface.
This type of mattress may be more suitable for those who are slighter in build or weight, and for those who do not suffer from back problems.
Our second softest rating could be perfect for those who want a soft surface but with a slightly firmer support than a softer feel mattress.
This type of mattress may be more suitable for those who have a slighter frame and for those who do not suffer from back problems.
A medium firmness rating is the most popular choice amongst our customers, as it will accommodate most body sizes.
This type of mattress could be the best compromise for any couple who may find it hard to decide between a softer and a firmer feel mattress.
A medium mattress could also potentially benefit those who suffer from backache if used in conjunction with a solid base.
This firmness rating is perfect for those who prefer a firmer sleep surface than a medium mattress.
Again, this type of mattress could be the best compromise for any couple who may find it difficult to agree between medium and firmer feel.
A medium to firm feel mattress could also potentially benefit those who suffer from back pain if used together with a solid base.
Firmer feel mattresses are ideal for those who prefer a more solid, supportive surface. These types of mattresses may often contain the word "Ortho" in the product name.
A firmer feel mattress may be recommended for those with back problems and can be more suitable for those with a larger than average frame.
However, it is important to remember that you should choose a mattress based on your own unique comfort and support needs – a firmer feel mattress may not necessarily be what's best for your back pain.
Our firmest mattress rating is best suited for those who prefer the most supportive, sturdiest sleeping surface available. Mattresses that are extra firm will most likely contain the word "Ortho" in the product title.
An extra firm rating mattress may be beneficial for those with very bad back problems, although of course, it is important to choose firmness based on individual preferences. This rating might not be suitable for those with a slender build.

Stories That Matter 2019: Myths | Island of the Hungry Ghosts
By Gabrielle Brady
Australia, Germany, UK | 94min | 2018 | English, French, Farsi, Mandarin Chinese, with English subtitles | PG
Post-screening discussion with Kin Chui and Nurul Huda Rashid
Best Documentary, Tribeca Film Festival
Human Rights Award, IDFA
Buyens-Chagoll Award, Vision Du Réel
Famed for its isolation and the mysterious migration of red crabs, Christmas Island is also a detention centre for refugees seeking asylum in Australia. Gabrielle Brady's debut feature is a searing look at refugee politics, told through the eyes of Poh Lin, a trauma counsellor who has the seemingly impossible task of supporting the island's detainees.
Stories of the refugees' unbearable, untenable situation play out against the richly textured natural rhythms and traditions of the island, as millions of crabs make their journey to the sea and the local Chinese community marks the Hungry Ghost Festival. Artfully crafted and rife with visual poetry, the film contemplates myths of the past and the present in a delicate interrogation of what it means to be human.

Annually from 1975 to 1991 the Akhenaten Temple Project mounted 17 campaigns of excavation immediately east of the temple of Amun. Here it was discovered that, from the 7th through 4th centuries B.C., a domestic quarter of the city had expanded comprising villas typical of the time. Beneath this level was discovered the western half of the first temple constructed by Akhenaten the monotheistic heretic king, and dedicated to his sole god, the sun-disc. Hundreds of relief scenes carved in sandstone had been coming to light since about 1840, recycled as fill in later constructions. With these excavations we now know one of the temples from which they came, and through careful analysis have been able to ascertain on which walls the reliefs originally stood. If we could ever realize the funds and opportunity, a physical reconstruction of at least part of the temple would certainly be possible. In light of the revolutionary nature of the king's program in art and religion, such a reconstruction would be of immense fascination.


Higher Signal to Noise indicates the strength of the signal that can be used to identify peptides, that is, higher signal discrimination.
The MS1 Signal to Noise metric is estimated by taking the ratio of the maximum to the median of the MS1 peaks heights. The Signal to Noise metric is calculated over the Retention Spread, the middle part of the elution time when most of the peptides are elution.
Signal to Noise estimates the signal strength. The estimate of the noise level depends upon threshold settings that determine which low level peaks get included. Often there are lots of very low intensity peaks so that the median is a very low level. The result is that the reported Signal to Noise, the ratio of the max peak to the median, often looks higher than one would estimate by looking at the spectra. However it is useful for comparing the signal strength over runs.
According to the research done at NIST, the Signal to Noise provides a more stable measure of the signal strength than either the Total Ion Current or Peak Intensity. Note that all measures of signal strength can't differentiate between variations in the amount of sample injected and changes in instrument sensitivity.


Founded in 1957, BROWARD HEALTHCARE is an NCUA-insured credit union headquartered in FORT LAUDERDALE, FL. The credit union has $72.7 million in assets, according to December 31, 2017, regulatory filings.
Members have $28.8 million on deposit tended by 17 full-time employees. With that footprint, the credit union holds loans and leases worth $28.8 million. Its 9,221 members currently have $64.6 million in shares with the credit union.
Overall, Bankrate believes that, as of December 31, 2017, BROWARD HEALTHCARE exhibited a good condition, earning 4 out of 5 stars for safety and soundness. Here's an analysis of how the credit union did on the three major criteria Bankrate used to grade U.S. credit unions.
When it comes to measuring an institution's financial strength, capital is essential. It acts as a cushion against losses and affords protection for members during periods of economic trouble for the credit union. When it comes to safety and soundness, the more capital, the better.
On our test to measure capital adequacy, BROWARD HEALTHCARE received a score of 10 out of a possible 30 points, failing to reach the national average of 15.65.
BROWARD HEALTHCARE had a capitalization ratio of 10.00 percent in our test, worse than the average for all credit unions, suggesting that it could have a harder time weathering financial trouble than its peers.
Bankrate uses this test to estimate the impact of troubled assets, such as unpaid mortgages, on the credit union's loan loss reserves and overall capitalization.
Having extensive holdings of these kinds of assets may eventually require a credit union to use capital to cover losses, diminishing its equity cushion. Many of those assets are also likely to be in non-accrual status and no longer earning money, resulting in lower earnings and potentially more risk of a failure in the future.
BROWARD HEALTHCARE did better than the national average of 38.09 on Bankrate's test of asset quality, racking up 40 out of a possible 40 points .
Troubled assets made up 0.00 percent of BROWARD HEALTHCARE's total assets in our test, below the national average and suggestive of superior financial strength compared to other credit unions.
A credit union's ability to earn money affects its long-term survivability. Earnings may be retained by the credit union, boosting its capital buffer, or be used to deal with problematic loans, potentially making the credit union more resilient in times of trouble. Credit unions that are losing money, however, have less ability to do those things.
BROWARD HEALTHCARE outperformed the average on Bankrate's test of earnings, achieving a score of 12 out of a possible 30.


In an earlier story we looked at an SQL injection that has infected close to 1.5 million sites. The same search now only returns about 175K sites and many of those are discussing the injection. The URLs I checked were all dead links, so well done everybody in cleaning up isle 3.
With regards to the second set of SQL injections we talked about here the number successful injections is still going up. When I first came across these about 4.5k sites were injected, now we are up to 33K. Not a real success story for this particular attack. The error with the 06014.html page is still not fixed. The only variation I've seen so far is the target url which changes, the rest is pretty much the same, the end game is still the stealing of WOW passwords.
People have reported that typically they get two hits from the one IP address and then it moves along.
Keep an eye on your logs and consider implementing an IDS or use tools such as suhosin for PHP sites, mod_security for apache, or any other url checking/sanitisation tool.

The Relatives of a Weasel
By Elle Di Jensen
mink 2 image by Colin Buckland from Fotolia.com
When you call someone a weasel, you're probably referring to his weasel-like qualities, such as being sneaky, wily and out for "number one." The description is fitting, because weasels and pretty much all members of the weasel family, known as "mustelids," are predatory and sly. There are 65 species, including weasels, in the mustelid family tree, although some, like otters, are counted more than once because there are more than one type.
A Few Weasel Relatives
If you want an idea of the different animals you would see at the weasel family reunion, some that might show up include wolverines, minks, ferrets, badgers, and otters. That's not just the small, playful river otters, but their larger cousins the sea otters and the even larger giant otters, too. In the past skunks were classified as mustelids, but are now considered different enough that they've been moved to their own family and been given their own classifying name: mephitidea. It's a fitting moniker as it's Latin for "foul-odored ones."
Animals in the same family with weasels share essentially the same anatomy, although their physical looks can vary a bit. Most of them have a long body, except for badgers and wolverines, who tend to have shorter, stockier bodies, but they all have short legs, five toes with claws on each of their four feet, and small eyes and small round ears. These mustalid kinfolk also come equipped with powerful scent glands that give off a strong and repulsive odor.
They Come in All Sizes
With over 65 species assigned to the mustelid species, you can bet that there is a wide range of sizes living all over the world, including in North America, Africa, Asia, Europe and South America. Weasels actually start out at the bottom end of the size chart with the type known as the "least weasel," weighing in at just above one ounce. South American giant otters get the honor of being king-sized weasels, tipping the scales at 60 pounds and weighing as much as 90 pounds.
Fearless Hunters
Weasels and their relatives are known for their fearlessness when it comes to hunting and confrontations. They are aggressive and predatory, and like their meat fresh, rarely if ever feeding on an animal that they haven't killed. Although weasels and their next of kin don't mind hunting and feasting on animals smaller than themselves, like birds, frogs, fish and small rodents, they've been known to attack and kill animals much bigger than themselves.

The episode can't be listened to and it isn't on lybsyn to be listened to and downloaded. Please fix.
It'll take environmental activism targeting Japanese youth so that they'll vote against pro-whaling diet members. The Sea Shepherd shut down in the late 2010s, so it's up to Greenpeace to keep up the fight. Even ecoterrorism hasn't seemed to put a dent in Japanese whaling. The IUCN needs to just put all whales on the endangered species list.

Jenna Bush Hager Just Returned To 'Today' For Halloween And Recreated *The* 'Dirty Dancing' Lift
"I've been waiting for so long..."
By Jennifer Nied
Jenna Bush Hager returned from maternity leave for a special appearance on Today for Halloween.
She and Willie Geist recreated the iconic Dirty Dancing scene, but the camera cut to a dummy completing the lift.
Jenna will officially return from maternity leave by December.
It was all treats and no tricks when Jenna Bush Hager returned to Today from maternity leave for an extra special Halloween episode. She joined the entire cast of Today and helped recreate what they deemed the most iconic dances.
Each Today star transformed into their characters and performed the dances, including routines from Footloose, Janet Jackson, and Grease. Jenna dressed up as Frances "Baby" Houseman alongside co-star Willie Geist as dance instructor Johnny Castle. They looked just like the on-screen Dirty Dancing duo.
As soon as "(I've Had) The Time of My Life" started playing over the speakers, Jenna and Willie popped out. They re-enacted the Dirty Dancing's most memorable moment, exaggerating the steamy dance moves and twirling on stage. Of course, they couldn't leave out that lift (you know the one). Jenna ran forward... and the camera cut to Willie hoisting a dummy wearing an identical pink dress.
Well played, Today. That move is no joke and takes a lot of practice to perfect, so it's totally fair they went the safer route. After all, nobody wants to see their fave hosts in danger of falling, especially not Jenna, who gave birth to her third child, Henry Harold Hager, on August 2.
This isn't the end of Jenna's maternity leave, but she will be back soon. The mom of three is spending time with her family before she returns to work. "I am just laying here with this little precious being," she shared during the call, referring to Henry. "He is the sweetest, easiest baby, and I think it's just God knowing if he gave me more than I could handle I couldn't handle it, you know what I mean?" Jenna announced that she'll be back in the studio by December.
Until then, it looks like everyone is having the time of their lives.

Home Construction Resources Land Survey Services
Survey monuments are physical markers indicating the location of land boundary corners, geodetic control points, or local control points. They enable a surveyor to relate narrative boundary descriptions or improvements, and boundaries drawn on a set of plans to the actual location on the ground.
Survey Monuments Importance
All real properties, such as parcels, lots, rights-of-way, and easements can only be located or staked on the ground by starting from a monument. Legal descriptions of the horizontal and vertical locations of properties and structures all require the location of a monument as their beginning point of reference. The accuracy and relevancy of the City's Geographic Information System (GIS) maps are also based on survey monuments. The network of survey monuments protects and delineates public and private property, and is critical to the enforcement and enjoyment of real property rights. Survey monuments are important assets belonging to the City and its citizens, and are protected and maintained as such.
Locating or Identifying a Survey Monument
Most survey monument locations can be found in the City's GIS system and on the City's Quarter Section Maps (also called Engineering Maps). The City's Survey Field Books can also help determine monument locations. These books may show how a monument was set, and what condition it was in when it was last seen. The books may also show where there may be ties to a monument, if the monument has been buried or lost.
Survey Monuments used for horizontal location are typically found in the City's Right-of-Way (ROW), typically in the center of the ROW, and most often at intersections. However, some monuments have been "offset" from their original locations for various reasons such as placement of manholes and traffic circles. Offset distances and directions can be determined from notes on the Quarter Section Maps and in Survey Field Books.
Example of a legible survey monument
Survey Monuments for elevation control (Benchmarks) are found in the City sidewalks. There are many kinds of Survey Monuments. The newest are metal disks embedded in the pavement, sidewalk or ground. They are typically about 1 inch to 3 inches in diameter, and may be covered with a lid for added protection. They may be stamped with markings and some writing.
Seattle's Authority Over Survey Monuments
In 1969, RCW 58.24.040(8) initiated a process to protect monuments; responsibility was assigned to the local jurisdiction. W.A.C. Chapter 332-120 describes the process for protecting monuments. The Washington State Board of Registration for Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors consider non-compliance with these regulations to be a violation of law. Please see the link to the relevant Washington Administrative Code (WAC) under Links and References below. The Washington State Board of Registration for Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors consider non-compliance with these regulations to be a violation of law.
Developers' Responsibilities to Protect Survey Monuments
Anyone performing construction, maintenance, or other work in Seattle is responsible for protecting all survey monuments within the area of work. If it is necessary to disturb a survey monument, a permit must be requested in advance from the Department of Natural Resources. The developer must pay the cost of repairing or replacing the survey monument and is responsible for all contractors working for them.
Please note: Failure to comply to Washington State requirements regarding monument removal or destruction is a gross misdemeanor and is punishable by a fine of up to $5,000 and/or imprisonment of up to 1 year; and liability for the cost of reestablishment. Learn more about the law.
It is much more expensive to replace a monument (in the range of $10,000), if it was not properly located by a surveyor before it was damaged or destroyed.
When survey monuments are destroyed, removed or disturbed, the original position of these monuments must be re-established. The surveyor must find sufficient evidence to determine the original position of the missing monument, which must be legally defensible as it affects the real property rights of the City, property owners, and easements owners, who may find cause to dispute the reestablished location.
The cost to locate right-of-way, property, and easement lines escalates exponentially when monuments are destroyed. If one monument is destroyed, as many as four monuments must be located to reestablish the destroyed monument's position. Junior/Senior Rights issues, order of precedence of evidence, the history of the existing monuments, and resolving conflicting evidence must be sufficiently researched on the remaining monuments to replace the destroyed monument.
Please note that for some City permits involving work in the public right-of-way, you may be required to place a deposit with the permitting City department, if there are monuments in the area you will be working.
However, whether or not you have left a deposit with the City, you will still be liable for any damages to any survey monuments in the area you are working.
Permission to Disturb a Monument
The following information is needed to obtain permission to disturb a monument.
Name and contact information
Company or agency name and address
Location of monument(s) to be damaged or destroyed, and plan to replace them (provided by Licensed Surveyor)
Verification (after work completed) that monuments are replaced (provided by Licensed Surveyor)
Consider When Buying a Property for Development
You may want to verify that all survey monuments that help define the property boundaries actually exist, and are in good condition. It may cost up to $10,000 to replace a single physical monument. Locating a missing monument may be necessary for determining your property boundaries.
Apply for a Permit to Damage or Destroy a Monument
Prior to beginning work in the ROW, check the GIS map on the 20th floor of the Seattle Municipal Tower or the Quarter Section map in the Engineering Vault on the 47th floor, and the physical location for any monuments that may be impacted by your work. Some monuments may be buried and require further investigation for information in Survey field books.
Complete the 1st part of the Application to Remove or Destroy a Survey Monument with the help of a licensed surveyor, and return it to the address provided on the application. Also, send a copy of your application to SPU's Survey Section (see Contacts below.) Your application should be processed and mailed back to you within 48 hours of receipt.
After the work in the ROW is completed, any damaged monuments must be replaced by a licensed surveyor.
With the help of a licensed surveyor, complete and return the 2nd part of the Application to Remove or Destroy a Survey Monument, and return that to the address provided on the application. Also, send a copy of your application to SPU's Survey Section. (See contact information below.)
Avoid Unnecessary Costs or Delays
Example of an illegible survey monument
The City assumes a monument exists and is intact unless shown otherwise prior to construction! Check with SPU Survey to verify whether or not monuments should exist at that location prior to construction! If an expected monument is missing, you need to notify SPU Survey to avoid being charged for replacement costs.
The application process for a permit to destroy a monument will be processed by Washington State's Department of Natural Resources within 48 hours and mailed to the applicant.

Joanne and Alyson Abel had a goat. It lived on a messy piece of land adjoining their house which was probably actually their garden. Our garden was similar- a messy piece of land over a footbridge and formed part of a field. It never got mowed it wasn't that kind of grass. I caught endless fish in a bucket using old stockings and coathangers and always put them back.
I lived and played outdoors in the summer and I don't remember the rain, I borrowed other people's distant sheds and turned them into "ganghuts" or dens in Doubledeckers style. I would track the rivers back to streams and back to source and wash stones in the summer sun. I ate gooseberries from the bushes near the Goyt (not it's real name) which was a dammed swimming hole behind the school which all the children were forbidden to use- but we all did and no-one died, floating in inner tubes late into the day until we heard the din of the mothers cooking dinner and shouting for their off-spring.
We used to float down the river on inner tubes. It was great fun!
I love this memory, you have created excellent images which I can relate to….so well done..
Very interesting memories, the fact that you remembered them goes to show they were important to you. Have a nice day.
I have never tracked a river back to its source but it is something I have thought would be nice to do.
Those are magical childhood memories, real sense of adventure and exploration – which, sadly, I don't think our children will ever have. You really have an eye for the relevant detail!
Oh~ this is so lovely. I could taste the landscape! Such a lovely depiction of a childhood.
Sounds so free! Love it.

"Hilarious…[Nugent] documents her journey to feminism while skewering misogynist tropes and delivering some painful truths." -Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Feminist" is not a four-letter word, but Alida Nugent resisted it for a long time. She feared the "scarlet F" being thrust upon her for refusing to laugh at misogynistic jokes at parties; she withered under the judgmental gaze of store clerks when buying Plan B, and she swore that she was "not like other girls." But eventually, like so many of us, she discovered that feminism is an empowering identity to take on. It's okay to criticize beauty standards but still love dark lipstick, investing in female friendships is the most rewarding thing ever, and no woman should feel pressured to eat an "unseasoned chicken breast the size of a deck of playing cards" as every sad dinner for the rest of eternity. With sincerity, intelligence, and wit, Nugent invites readers in to her most private moments of personal growth. From struggling with an eating disorder for most of her teen years to embracing all aspects of her biracial identity, she tackles tough topics with honest vulnerability making it a perfect gift for teens and young adults. Smartly-written, unapologetic, and laugh-out-loud funny, You Don't Have to Like Me is perfect for readers of Roxane Gay, Rebecca Solnit, and Sloane Crosley.

Diane Landry: by every wind that blows, Curator: Raphaela Platow & Steven Matijcio, Contemporary Arts Center, Lois & Richard Rosenthal Center for Contemporary Art, Cincinnati (Ohio, USA).
Correspondances, curator: Nicole Gingras, Manif d'art 6 – Machines : Les formes du mouvement, Musée de l'Amérique française, Quebec City (Quebec, Canada).
"One definition of the word "exhaustion" is "the total consumption of something." Landry's massive constellation of plastic forks, knives and spoons speaks to the act of exhausting in ways that are alternately urgent and enigmatic. Its slow rise and fall echoes the familiar gesture of bringing fork to mouth in the process of eating – repeated innumerable times over the course of a lifetime. Yet in an increasingly disposable culture, this act is often populated by paper, plastic and speed that collectively speak to impermanence – and waste. Does this Exhaustion symbolize the overconsumption of finite resources, or the mystical properties found in a seemingly banal, up-down gesture?
Landry veers to the latter, describing the work as "a strange machine for dreaming space, time and light – from which a thousand stories bubble up." From this point of view, ubiquitous instruments mutate into an uncanny shape suggesting a chandelier, fishing net and jellyfish. By escaping singular definition, the net of Exhaustion therefore evades its own capture – transcending the assigned function of individual parts to float in magical reassignment. Only when fully spent, does the terrifyingly raw frontier of emptiness begin."
Steven Matijcio, curator.
"Diane Landry's practice is site-specific. With Exhaustion, she undertakes a radical transformation of the exhibition hall and plays on its various spatial volumes. Visitors are guided and incorporated into movements of exploration, perception, and discovery of both space and the work. Exhaustion reveals itself progressively, step by step. It is a work in sound, shadow, image, reflection, kinetic sculpture, shadow theatre, and environment. Exhaustion is a strange machine for dreaming space, time, and light, from which a thousand stories bubble up. Behind what seems to function as a container, but which could just as well be understood as a chamber, cave, or pit, the artist has suspended a structure made up of an elaborate combination of transparent plastic objects. The artist's inventiveness is seen in the transfiguration of these everyday objects into sculptural elements deployed en masse and led astray from their original utilitarian vocations. Since beginning her investigations of movement, Diane Landry has often called on elementary machines—wheel, screw, pulley, lever, and inclined plane. Her Exhaustion, she foregrounds the pulley, which she has not much featured in previous productions. The work is complex: opening onto various spaces, it can also be looked at from several points of view. The sculpture in its container stands out paradoxically as a flying shape, floating, like a jellyfish. Exhaustion conjures up around it something that hesitates between an aerial and aquatic habitat. Perhaps it is as paradoxical a work as the propeller-driven snowmobile. What kind of exhaustion is Diane Landry evoking with her title?

The nalfeshnee, &, is a demon in NetHack. They are one of the few ordinary demons capable of spell-casting and can be considered dangerous in this respect, as a sufficiently high-level one can summon nasties.
"This is pretty standard behavior for a non-eating, spellcasting monster. It should be moved somewhere more "general"."
Nalfeshnee cannot normally be tamed; however, with figurines they could be created tame, or an existing pet may polymorph into one.
Nalfeshnee pets are strong, with up to 16 hit dice and a max of 128 hit points, but not as dangerous as they are as enemies.
They are spell casters, but the only spells they can cast as pets are cure self, haste self, and only if you can see invisible, invisibility.
They do not eat, so tameness cannot be increased with food.
They will wear amulets, wear armor (not shirts, body armor, or cloaks), carry unicorn horns, quaff potions of gain level, but will not wield weapons.
They will open unlocked doors, but are stopped by locked doors and boulders, and, as they do not fly, all traps will affect them.
and bite, but they are capable of using magic as well.
