Ludivine Sagnier (born July 3, 1979) is a French actress and model, who has appeared in films since 1989. She was nominated for two César Awards for Best Supporting Actress in Swimming Pool (2003) and Un secret (2007).
Sagnier was born in La Celle-Saint-Cloud, in the département of Yvelines, France. Her mother is a retired secretary and her father is a professor of English at the Paris University.[1]
She has a daughter, Bonnie, with actor Nicolas Duvauchelle, and two daughters, Ly Lan (born January 2009) and Tàm (born December 2014), with her current partner, filmmaker Kim Chapiron.
Sagnier at the 2007 Toronto Film Festival
Sagnier has appeared naked in extended scenes in several films, including Water Drops on Burning Rocks, Bon plan (both released in 2000) and La Petite Lili. In Francois Ozon's film Swimming Pool, Sagnier appears topless in more than half of the scenes in which she appears and is naked is several others.[2] Addressing this issue, Sagnier told Playboy: "I'm much more confident in front of a camera, hidden by a character, enhanced by makeup, so I can go much further than I can in real life. Sexual acting is painful, because even though you're pretending, you have the skin of the person in front of you, and it's not the skin you wish you had. After that, you run into the shower to get rid of everything".[3]
Three films starring Ludivine Sagnier screened in Los Angeles in 2011. Pieds nus sur les limaces (Lily Sometimes) was shown at the City of Angels, City of Light Festival in April. Love Crime and The Devil's Double were shown at the Los Angeles Film Festival in June.[4]

The Virtue of Courage
When we say the Serenity Prayer at the end of every meeting, we ask for the courage to change the things we can. We pray for courage because change is hard. It holds the possibility of failure and of loss. We fear it, and we avoid it. Yet we live in time, and so change is inevitable. Hence the need for courage.
Courage is the natural antidote to fear. It is the virtue which enables us to face difficulties well in the pursuit or preservation of the good. Such difficulties constitute perceived threats to the things that we care about, arousing what the 12&12 describes as our fear of losing or failing to get them (S7, p. 76). The threat may be of physical injury or the loss of life. Meeting such a threat calls for physical courage. Or the threat may involve other adverse circumstances: challenges, obstacles, opposition, risks, hardships, pain, suffering. Acting in the face of these requires a different kind of courage. This is moral courage.
Ours is a program of change. Because they involve change, all of our 12 Steps involve difficulty. Indeed, they involve changing what is arguably the hardest to change: ourselves. They all thus call for courage, and specifically for moral courage, for changing who we are and the way we live. But because of the effort they call for and the challenges they present, perhaps none require more of this sort of courage than Steps 4, 5, 9, and 10.
That working Step 4 requires moral courage is explicit in its very wording. It calls for a fearless, moral inventory. Looking at our whole life and examining what is wrong with us, the wrongs we have done, and the people we have injured, is certainly no easy task. It presents us with a number of practical, emotional, and psychological challenges. It can be scary, daunting, and overwhelming. If nothing else, we fear the hard work that it requires. Some of us avoid it for years. Some of us do it half-heartedly and superficially, sidestepping the "searching" and the "moral" part.
Avoidance, both of the procrastinating and of the circumventing kind, is behavior defining of fear. It easily leads to dishonesty, one of the many character defects of which the 12&12 tells us fear is "the chief activator" (S7, p. 76). Dishonesty, we often emphasize, is the biggest obstacle to taking inventory. But the dishonesty is often rooted in fear. We "dare not look" (S4, p. 49), afraid of what we might find, afraid to know the truth about ourselves.
The fear may spill over into Step 5, so that we are not totally honest with the person who hears our admission of wrongs in that Step. It may carry into Step 9, so that we dread going back and facing those we've hurt. Deceiving ourselves with all kinds of rationales, we put off making prompt or direct amends to all of them; nor are we fully honest with those we do. If fear has marred these Steps, it will continue to mar our work with Step 10, which is their extension into our daily lives. It will continue to mar our recovery, which is an ongoing process of change and of growth.
Courage, we have said, is the antidote to fear. It is not its absence. Courage presupposes the presence of fear. If there's nothing to fear there is nothing to be courageous about. Though courage opposes fear, therefore it is not its opposite. It is its corrective. The opposite of courage is cowardice and rashness. In cowardice, we fear too much; in rashness, not enough. Both result from a wrong construal of the danger or difficulty and the goods that are at stake.
Courage requires a right perception of these. In moral courage, we surmount a rightly perceived difficulty and do the morally right thing in spite of it. In cowardice, by contrast, we do not surmount the difficulty. Instead, it scares us away from morally right or into morally wrong conduct. In rashness, we do overcome the difficulty and take action, but our action is typically hasty, ill-considered, or excessive. We act without due regard to the risks, thus endangering the moral good.
Moral courage, then, requires right moral perception, motivation, and action. The fact that we may overcome a difficulty and act in spite of our fear does not necessarily make our action morally courageous. People overcome fear and take all sorts of risks for all sorts of reasons, including anger, pride, envy, greed, lust, and other selfish and self-centered motives. Most of us did when we drank, as a truly fearless and moral inventory will show. Alcohol numbed our fear and gave us the false courage we needed.
In AA, the moral is grounded in the spiritual. A right understanding of the moral dimensions of courage is anchored in a spiritual understanding of this character trait. This is what distinguishes the view of courage we find in the program from the secular view we find in the culture at large, where, it ought to be noted, courage is very popular. All sorts of people are held up daily as exemplars of this virtue, secularly conceived.
The secular view of courage stresses the overcoming of odds. To be brave is to be daring, to act boldly notwithstanding the obstacles or opposition. It stresses in particular the overcoming of odds that stand in the way of self-fulfillment. Doing what will make us happy—whatever that is—becomes the highest good. On this view, there's no greater courage than the courage to be "yourself." This makes courage a matter of self-will, a function of the will in the service of the self. Its underlying attitude is often one of defiance. It tends to court, if not the rash, the brash, and sometimes even the brazen.
The courage we seek to practice through the Steps is a different sort of courage. It is neither self-willed nor self-serving. When we pray for courage in the Serenity Prayer, we are recognizing in God its spiritual source and nature. When we pray for courage to change the things we can, we do so in a specifically spiritual context: in the context of our decision to entrust our will and our lives to the care of God in Step 3, where the Prayer first appears. What we are praying for is the courage to carry out that decision, whatever the circumstances—in all our affairs.
Carrying it out begins with the next Step. God's will for us begins with Step 4. A fearless moral inventory is the start of our practice of moral courage. It continues with Steps 5 and 9, and becomes a part of our daily life with Step 10. Together these Steps are the program's training ground in courage, a courage born of faith.
The courage we ask for, and the courage we practice, is the courage to live the way God wants us to live and become the person he wants us to be. To the extent that his will becomes our will and highest good, and to the extent that we rely on the power of his grace to carry it out, to that extent courage becomes a spiritual virtue, founded entirely on the grace of God.

I'm not certain which famous author wrote that in an article I read in which rich and well-known writers were asked for their best piece of writing advice.
I'm also not certain how many times I've quoted it to creative writing students. It used to hang on a little sticky note on my computer monitor, but it's probably lost amongst the dust bunnies behind my desk now, the sticky long since dried up.
I'm a wordy writer. If it weren't for the countless editors who forced me to bend to their word count will, I probably never would have been published. I tend to over-tell you what's happening, repeat myself, as it were.
When you're writing a clever personal essay where voice is the most engaging feature, you can get away with extra words. But in fiction, readers have no patience for the writer who explains every turn of the doorknob and unfolding of a napkin.
'Assume they are wearing pants' means that there is much you can trust the reader to figure out on his or her own.
You don't need to write that your character brushed his teeth or pulled on his pants or went to the potty or drove to work. You can trust your reader to figure out by the time your character 'stepped out of the elevator on the sixth floor of the Bronson building ready to conquer the world or at least the part of the world that dealt with Fifteen-millimeter straws ' that all of that has happened.
I still didn't tell you that he put his pants on, but I'm pretty sure you know he's wearing pants. Otherwise, everyone in the elevator would be staring at him, right?
Details are important, but the only details you need to include are the important ones.
Hi Cara, I'm next week's guest ambassador for Hometown Reads/Authors. I want to promo your work on Twitter and FB. I love this comment about the important details. Good luck on the new book. The cover melted my heart.
thanks Mary!! Appreciate all the promo I can get!

We have a pending orderand I then issue an AT Cancel command. The Cancel file was created at 1:13:59 and deleted at 1:14:02. A new OIF file was created at 1:14:02 and deleted at 1:14:04. NT rejected the OIF order at 1:14:02, which is in the middle of the Canel sequence (see log).
How am I suppose to know that NT has "really" finished handling the Cancel command. It would appear that one can not count on the fact that just because the Cancel file has been deleted, that AT has finished canceling the pending order.
Cancel in simulation can be be as much as2 seconds longer than what you can expect in real-time. The only way to verify an order has been cancelled is to use the passthrough mode and monitor order status files.
In theory, when using an OIF file to enter a trade, and then using a Cancel file, to cancel a pending strategy. Once the AT Cancel command is excuted, the PUF file should also be deleted. I guess the question is: if the PUF file is no longer there, has NT really finished with the cancel process?
PUFS are not deleted only updated.
"The PUF will remain and will only be overwritten once a new automated position with the same INSTRUMENT NAME/ACCOUNT NAME parameters is opened. The only exception is that the PUF will be deleted if an ENTRY order was cancelled."
Sorry, sometimes I can't remember every little detail.The PUF is deleted once the entry order for the pending strategy is confirmed cancelled.

When most people budget for a bathroom remodeling Boynton Beach they don't really budget the way the contractor you get will. This is not a piece about how the contractor will rip you off. This is a piece about what it realistically will cost the contractor. You see, when most people sit down to budget what they have to put aside for a bathroom remodel job—they only take into consideration the cost of the materials and some of the labor. And that's the labor for one guy. But, this is only going to bring you a $4,000 dollar bill. Then much to your surprise, you get a $10,000 bill.
You would think the contractor would be responsible for their own mistakes but, that isn't what happens. There is a tremendous markup for the margin of mistakes that need to be covered. People are human and every job is different there will never be a time that there will be no mistakes. This could be a malfunction in equipment and a tile is miscut. There could be an accident from people walking and occupying a small space and something could break and need to be replaced. There have been cases of faulty product like a toilet that cracks and breaks during an installation. Yes, some may argue that this is their problem and they should take such things out-of-pocket but this is not realistic as they would be out of business and you wouldn't have a contractor.
The rest of the money goes to—you guessed it—several $20 plus dollar an hour contractor. It always takes more than one. This is for a full bathroom remodel. So, to save a bit. Buy your own materials unless they can do it cheaper. Then take one job at a time. Pay for the plumbing first—that is the most expensive. Then the tiling may be done by you as well as any painting. Do the labor intensive stuff yourself and the contractor for the other challenging stuff.

Q: Calculating steady state output using Laplace transform I've tried to obtain the the steady state output with the help of final value theorem and multiplication properties of Laplace transform.But I'm not sure whether I've solved the problem correctly or not. Please let me know if any corrections are required.
This is the question.

This is the approach I've tried. The solution is 45. But I'm not sure whether I've made the correct assumption of input signal x(t) as a step signal with amplitude 5.

A: Yes, for these Laplace transform problems, "constant input" translates to "unit step".
As a further check, you can reason through it -- while convolution is usually not something to try to do in your head, the convolution of a pulse with a constant is just the height of the pulse times the constant, integrated over the duration of the pulse.  So, 3 * 3 * 5 = 45, which is not only the answer you got, but which follows the arithmetic in your final few lines fairly closely.
(BTW: If I were a grad student grading your work you would have gotten full marks.)

Role-based: The players choose roles to perform actions, actions that give some players more benefits than others.
Economic balance: The players need to raise money during the game to achieve the objectives but the money are of no use at the end of the game.
Opposite victory conditions: The victory conditions depend on how the players play and will not be revealed until the game ends.
Guessing game: A player strategy is not visible to the other players and must be deduced from their actions.
With Christina Regina, my games had found their place in the Swedish 17th century and I began to think of dramatic events to weave games around. One such event was the failure of Vasa Regalis. How about letting the players cooperate and/or compete to build the ship? And if they fail, let the entire Vasa ship fail? That would force the players to collectively contribute to a common goal, but individually as little as possible, a bit like in Nova Suecia. But as an extra challenge, the victory conditions would be ambiguous and dependent on success or the failure of the ship.
The main game mechanism does not have to be complicated. The players acquire goods (wood, cloth, iron and sculptures fit the theme) and combine them into higher values (1-3) that are secretly placed on the ship. If an area reach a certain value, the ship succeeds and the player benefits from having most goods left, otherwise it fails and the player benefits from having placed most goods.
The idea was intriguing but which other game mechanisms to include? I already had a production game in Nova Suecia and the essence of Vasa Regalis would not be the production but the use of the products. How about a trade game, where the players trade combinations? OK, but trade games tend to take time. I finally settled with a role-based game, where the player selecting the role gets the most benefits and the last player in the turn no benefits. This also ensures an asymmetrical distribution of goods With the addition of limited resources, there would be plenty of tactical opportunities in the role selection.
Like its predecessor, Christina Regina, Vasa Regalis is a simple and straight-forward game. The strategic depth may not be as big but the ambiguous victory conditions ensure that all players participate in the victory race until the very end.
After having created a card game version of Christina Regina, I considered doing the same with Vasa Regalis. However, the game is simple as it is and I couldn't see how it could be simplified into a card game. A micro game contest at Boardgamegeek gave me the challenge I needed to get the creativity started: design a game with only 18 cards, including rule cards.
To accomplish this, I removed the procurement and improvement options and focused on the key of the game: the build. Instead of building a hand, the players would all start with 3 cards each, number 1, 2 and 3, thus keeping the game below the 18 card limit. As in the board game, the objective would be to place cards in different parts, punishing low cards on low parts (you're blamed for the ship's failure) and rewarding low parts on high parts (you keep most material for yourself). The symmetric start conditions would make the guessing game even more intense as players would have a better (but still not complete) knowledge of which cards the other players have played.
The game is currently undergoing test and not available for order but you're welcome to download the print & play version using the link to the right and give feedback. If you like the game and contribute to its final design, I'm more than happy to send you a copy of the finished game.
Vasa Regalis is quickly set up and only lasts as long as it takes to fill the four goods squares per player. The estimated playing time is 45 minutes.
A player only have to understand the value chain of procuring basic goods (by choosing roles), crafting them into higher values (by combining them) and use the crafted goods to trade with the other players (for other goods) or build (for victory).
A player basically has two choices: choose a role and choose what to do with the goods (craft, trade or build).
A player does not know how the other players have disposed of their goods, more than he or she can remember from their actions. Nevertheless, knowledge of this is crucial in the disposal of his or her own goods.
All players participate to the end and they always have resources to perform actions.
The players cooperate to build the ship. There are no aggressive roles or actions (although I accept no responsibility for the King's wrath if the ship fails).
The player interaction is subtle and indirect. They compete in a subtle way by choosing roles to deny others actions and accumulating most goods. There is also a trade phase where the players directly engage in exchanging goods. Finally, and most important, the combined actions of the players determine how the game ends.
The players play one role at the time and manage four kinds of goods.
As in other games in the Nova Suecia series, I have attempted to add interest through the theme and let the magnificent Vasa ship do the job for me. Please read more about the theme to get to understand how it was built (and why it sank).
A ship certainly needs more than four kind of goods to be built. Nevertheless, I felt that the Vasa ship was an interesting setting for a competitive game where the players must cooperate up to a certain level to succeed while still keeping as much as possible for themselves. I don't blame the real shipyard leaders for the failure but is this not how many builders do even today?
No dice. Not even drawn cards. The challenge is not to be lucky, it is to select the role that benefits you most compared to the others and place goods of the right value and on the right place in comparison to the others.
The game is not about destroying your opponents (although, you want to deny them as many benefits as possible). Your moves and actions will inevitably provide points for everybody. Your challenge is to get just a little more point than everybody else at every time.

Allianz UK has pledged to abolish an industry-standard clause from its SME policy wordings that reduces claims payouts in cases of underinsurance.
The insurer has also said that if a broker answers all the questions when e-trading business with Allianz, the insurer will accept this as a fair presentation of the risk as defined by the Insurance Act.
Allianz said the moves are designed to improve customer outcomes and it believes it is the first insurer to do both.
So-called average clauses cut claims payouts if the client is underinsured. The cut is directly proportionate to the gap in insurance cover. So if a client insures a property valued at £1m for £500,000 and there is a total loss, the insurer will only pay out £250,000 if there is an average clause in the policy.
Allianz has pledged to pay the full sum insured to its SME clients in cases of underinsurance rather than apply a proportional cut.
Allianz has also pledged that when brokers answer all the questions when e-trading with the insurer, it will accept that as a fair presentation of the risk under the Insurance Act, which comes into force this August.
This applies either to brokers using Allianz's proprietary QuoteSME trading platform, or when connecting to the insurer using one of the four main software vendors' trading platforms through the imarket portal.
Martin said: "We will guarantee the fair presentation of risk is a given using our platforms.
He added: "That gives certainty that the cover you have bought its going to react. That is a big call for an insurance company to take.

State Comptroller's Newsroom
Olean Firefighter Charged With Stealing Over $116,000 From City's Fire Department
NEWS from the Office of the New York State Comptroller
Contact: Press Office 518-474-4015
New York State Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli, Cattaraugus County District Attorney Lori Pettit Rieman and the New York State Police announced the arrest of Terry Gaylor Jr., for allegedly stealing over $116,000 from the City of Olean Fire Department (COFD). Gaylor Jr., a former trustee and current firefighter with COFD, was arrested after a joint investigation by the Comptroller, District Attorney and State Police.
"Gaylor Jr. betrayed his duty to his community by allegedly stealing funds meant to protect the citizens of Olean to fund his personal business and lifestyle," DiNapoli said. "Now, thanks to my partnership with District Attorney Rieman and the New York State Police, he will face the consequences for his actions."
Gaylor Jr., 41, of Olean, was charged with Grand Larceny in the Second Degree, two counts of Forgery in the Second Degree and Official Misconduct in Cattaraugus Court. Gaylor Jr. is accused of paying his personal credit card bills directly from the fire department's account and writing unauthorized checks to himself. Gaylor Jr. allegedly used more than $50,000 of the funds to pay his personal credit card, most of which funded his private HVAC business, Amazon purchases and payments to Verizon Wireless. He also wrote over $65,000 in checks to himself from COFD accounts. Many of the checks also contained forged signatures. Gaylor Jr. allegedly deposited these checks into his personal account, which he then used to withdraw cash and pay for personal expenses.
Gaylor Jr. is due back in court on February 14.
Since taking office in 2007, DiNapoli has committed to fighting public corruption and encourages the public to help fight fraud and abuse. New Yorkers can report allegations of fraud involving taxpayer money by calling the toll-free Fraud Hotline at 1-888-672-4555, by filing a complaint online at [email protected], or by mailing a complaint to: Office of the State Comptroller, Division of Investigations, 8th Floor, 110 State St., Albany, NY 12236.


"What do you think of when I say the word design?" Margaret Gould Stewart, director of product design at Facebook, is here to talk about the kind of design that you normally don't think about — the design of digital systems that are used by billions of people each day.
As examples, Steward reminds the audience that Google handles 1 billion searches per day. People upload to YouTube more in a single day than all of the US television networks broadcast in the last 5 years combined. Facebook transmits the photos, messages and stories of over 1.23 billion people, or about 1/6 of humanity.
That said, she and her colleagues have learned a lot about how to design at scale. She shared three lessons.
Facebook has a huge amount of data about how its users behave, "but it's not as simple as following the numbers." As an example, Facebook once had a very simple tool for reporting photos for spam and abuse. But they found that only a small percentage of photos reported were actually violating the community standards.
It turns out a lot of them were people asking for photos of themselves to be taken down, "This was a scenario that the team never took into account before." So they added a tool to request that the uploader take the photo down. But that didn't work — only 20% of people used it. So they went back again. This time they consulted with experts on conflict resolution, and learned that they actually had to help people express to their friend how the photo makes them feel, not just request that they take it down.
Years ago, when she was at YouTube, they were wondering how to get more people to rate videos. They had a five-star rating, but they discovered that people mostly rated things with all five stars, a few of them used one star, and almost no one used the three stars in the middle. So they wanted to switch to a simpler up/down model.
They believed the change was right, but knew people wouldn't like it. So, before the change, the team published the data on their blog and engaged in conversation with the larger industry.
I realize that some find Facebook's design sense to be…well, nonsense, but Ms. Stewart's lessons carry good advice to anyone building applications, especially those used by large, diverse groups.
I find this absurd. To me, TED is all about leading-edge knowledge.
Facebook continues to be a prime exemplar of appallingly bad user interface design.
How on earth does a Facebook executive get presented as an expert in a field where she has clearly failed? And not just failed, but failed extraordinarily?
Did you view the talk or read the article above? What about her advice is absurd?
Reblogged this on Hi, I'm Ruoxiang Chau.
really awesome lessons! must read for enterpreneurs!

Borderlands 3 'not happening' for Nintendo Switch, according to Gearbox head
By Rajesh V	 On Jan 16, 2017
We know that Gearbox Software is developing a new installment of Borderlands (which could not be called as Borderlands 3), and today we have also found out that the title in question will not arrive on Nintendo Switch, at least according to allegations made by Randy Pitchford, co-founder of the Gearbox Software.
The next installment of the Borderlands license, will never see the release on Nintendo Switch as Randy Pitchford says on his Twitter account. Responding to a question on the possible arrival of Borderlands 3 on Switch, Pitchford said the following: "I do not see that (Borderlands 3) as happening. We were talking to Nintendo, but that stopped for some reason. They have other priorities."
Indeed, the boss of the studio informs us that the next installment of Borderlands will probably not see a release on the new console of Nintendo. This is not due to the will of the studio but rather to the talks with Nintendo that obviously led to nothing at all.
So we do not know exactly why it got stuck up, apparently the development of this new Borderlands 3 is impossible on the Switch, but Nintendo has other priorities for the time, which seems to indicate that the porting of the game is not yet possible for the time being.
The new episode of Borderlands is currently under development although Gearbox has not yet revealed details about the nature of the game, which could be unveiled officially during 2017.
@dECU_nutt I do not see that as happening. We were talking to Nintendo, but that stopped for some reason. They have other priorities.

Singapore MMA show test case for return of sports fans
October 30, 2020 [email protected]_84 case, fans, MMA, Return, show, Singapore, sports, test
Singapore's pilot initiative to carry out rapid coronavirus testing to allow fans into a One Championship MMA show could show the way for other countries to host sports events during the pandemic, organisers said.
Sports have been slowly resuming worldwide after a months-long shutdown, but many events have gone ahead with no spectators, to reduce infection risks.
Up to 250 mask-wearing fans on Friday will attend the mixed martial arts card, "One: Inside the Matrix", at an indoor stadium — the city state's first sports event with an audience for months.
The screenings are part of a government pilot programme under which people will be tested for Covid-19 before large-scale gatherings, and comes as Singapore prepares to further ease restrictions as its outbreak slows.
Fans will have to get negative results in antigen tests, which can identify at least 80 percent of infected people and provide results in about 15 minutes.
"This is a first for Singapore and if we are successful, will pave the way for others to follow as we safely return to some normalcy," said Teh Hua Fung, group president of One Championship, Asia's biggest MMA promotion.
"They can't be isolating, waiting (a long time) for the results beforehand."
Spectators will also sit apart from one another to reduce the risk of infection, and no food and drinks will be on sale, with fans instead given goody bags.
"People are dying to watch, even if they have to socially distance," Teh said.
"It's going to be a different experience… But it's a start."
Ninety-eight people, including 42 athletes, have been flown into the city state for the event featuring six fights. Fifteen fights will also be pre-recorded for release at a later date.
Two men from the United States and Russia assisting the fighters tested positive for the virus on Tuesday, but the results were determined to be from previous infections, organisers said.
They were tested again on Thursday, and will only be allowed to participate if the latest tests show negative results.
One Championship was unable to hold matches for almost four months because of the pandemic, but it resumed in China in June and staged its first international event in Singapore this month, without fans.

My family has always been a bit strange. Let's start with my mother. While she is a sweet, hard-working woman that I have a lot of love and respect for, also at time has the emotional intelligence of a 15 year old girl. She takes things very personally and has a hard time maneuvering through challenging emotional situations. As a result, she has skipped over or avoided a lot of grief. When my husband died suddenly last July, she finally met grief she couldn't escape from and all of that other emotion from previous skipped grief came crashing down around her. She could hardly be around me for the first couple weeks. When she would be, she would just sob. Nearly six months later, she still starts crying uncontrollably every time she sees me, and then tells me I need to come see her more. Mom, I love you, but no thanks.
My father is a great guy. Following my husband's death, he essentially moved in with me for several weeks and helped me navigate when I felt like I had been plucked from my old world and dropped into a brand new one with no road signs nor map. He and my mother are still married and seem to like each other, but even he still gave me lectures about being gentle with her regarding her outbursts that were rattling me.
My brother… oh my brother. He is an odd one. I try to tell people about him and explain that he is not quite like other people. He doesn't march to the beat of another drummer, rather he hears drum beats in his own head that no one else can perceive and ignores them altogether. He does mean well and has made a huge attempt to be there for me, but he just doesn't really know what to do, not that I blame him. No one really knows what to do.
As I have spoken of previously, I have someone new in my life that means a great deal to me. Although they have their quirks, the support of my family also means a great deal to me, maybe even more than I can usually admit to myself. I made an attempt to talk to them about him at Christmas, but it was like there was an invisible shield over their ears that my words simply bounced off of into oblivion. That said, they know he visited me in December and this past weekend, but have not asked any sort of questions about it. I tend to get told "Well, that's nice." The consensus from other people I have told about this is that they are not ready to hear what I need to tell them and maybe they are afraid of me being hurt due to my timeline. I really don't know. It is whole new brand of strange for me.
Now, what is missing here in this conversation? Not once did he ask his young widowed daughter WHERE she was going for a week. When even a casual acquaintance mentions going on a trip, is not the natural reaction to say "Where are you headed?" It is really strange.
Last night I had my monthly dinner with my brother and his wife. He did ask how the visit last weekend went and I said it was a good visit. I then said "You can stop calling him my friend. My friend's name is XXXXX." My brother then looked tight lipped, in fact so tight lipped the skin around his mouth turned pale from tension. I dropped it, but mentioned I was getting out of town next month. To his credit, he did ask where. When I said where, we were right back to the tight lipped expression. Still no questions about any of it.
So here is the issue, I am an honest person that has nothing to be ashamed of or to hide. This relationship is a good, healthy, helpful thing for me. I was a good wife that was true to my marriage, but that marriage ended without warning nor bothering to get my consent. How do I be honest about such an important part of my life when no one is willing to hear the words? Part of me thinks I just need to live my life as I have, communicate when he visits or I visit him and wait for questions that will come when they are eventually ready. Another part of me feels like I need them to hear me now so I don't have this thing hanging over me. I despise the idea of something so positive becoming a "thing" to be dealt with, but that is where I am finding myself. I just don't know.
Good thing for today: Did I mention my tickets are booked for a week long visit?
Immediately after they told me my husband was dead in a crowded, buzzing hallway, they tried to usher me into a room to decompress me. I wasn't having it. I needed out of the sterile hospital air and insisted on going outside. I paced back and forth and kept repeating over and over "Ican'tdothisIcan'tdothisIcan'tdothisIcan'tdothisIcan'tdothis" and they kept saying "Yes, you can." It sounded ridiculous. The love of my life was dead with no warning whatsoever. I had no idea what to do. They were lying to me. As I was sent home in a new, comforting numb state with AARP pamphlets on losing a spouse clutched in my hand, I knew there was no way I could ever do this. Now, a few days shy of 6 months out, I begrudgingly have to admit that they were right.
I think about myself six months ago today. July 21st was a Monday. I was at work and was probably excited for a four day weekend I had talked my husband into taking with me. I had not had a lot of time off that year and my manager at the time had insisted I take a break, so I picked two random days on the calendar and emailed them to my husband and asked him to take them off too so we could spend time together. He had a lot going on at work and was hesitant, but ultimately my multiple whines of "Pleeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaase" wearing my best pout won out. That day was a normal, unmemorable day in which I had no idea I was a mere 5 days from my life changing forever.
1. In 3 days, your husband will talk you into getting a fourth dog.
2. In 4 days, you will kiss him goodnight and head upstairs just before midnight.
3. A few minutes later, you will hear him making a strange sound.
So, if you were me, would you believe me? I sure wouldn't, but thinking back on all of this it is clear that not only can I do this, I am doing this and am not the total failure I feared I would be. Sure, the fetal position is awfully tempting too many days than I would like to admit, but I don't often succumb to it. I can do this.
Good thing for today: My performance review at work was actually pretty good. It is a miracle!

Glastonbury 2017: Line-up, rumours, weather, traffic, headliners, tickets, 2018, map and how to watch the festival
From the line-up to the map and the traffic to the weather, Somerset Live has all the Glastonbury Festival information you need
Richard Birch
The biggest festival in the UK has opened its doors and Somerset Live is bringing you all the latest news from Worthy Farm as well as a guide to everything you need to know.
Radiohead, Foo Fighters and Ed Sheeran are your 2017 headliners but Glastonbury Festival is about so much more than the music and we'll help you explore the secrets to get the very most out of Somerset's biggest event.
And don't worry if you didn't get a ticket. We'll tell you how to stay in touch with the music and more on your television and how you might be able to get a ticket in future years, as well as what's happening with the "other" Glastonbury Festival event - the Variety Bazaar. So let's get started...
The ultimate guide to Glastonbury
The full line-up
How to watch at home
Latest festival traffic news

The security changes for 2017
When is Glastonbury 2017?
This year's festival runs from Wednesday, June 21 to Sunday, June 25. Performers and volunteers are already on site.
Anyone with camper van passes were able to get on site from noon on Tuesday, June 20. The Drop and Collect service will be open for the public until 6pm on Monday evening.
Car parks will open at 9pm on the Tuesday night before Glastonbury 2017, allowing Festival-goers to arrive throughout the night, when traffic volumes are low. There will, however, be no entertainment or facilities (other than toilets) in the car parks and festival-goers will be expected to remain in their cars until the Festival gates open at 8am on Wednesday morning.
Who is playing at Glastonbury 2017?
Does 3,000 acts across more than 100 stages take your fancy? Of course it does.
Somerset Live has been bringing you all the line-up news as it happens from the confirmed appearances to the wild rumours, and whether the big secret that Emily Eavis teased a couple of months ago has finally been confirmed.
Festival founder Michael Eavis and his daughter Emily pose for a photograph at the Glastonbury Festival in 2013 (Image: Matt Cardy/Getty Images)
We'll also be letting you know exactly when the acts will be playing.
And there will be famous faces in the crowd too, like David Beckham.
How can I enjoy the music if I'm not there?
We'll be providing you with guides to everything the BBC has to offer on television and through its interactive services.
The BBC has exclusive access to all of the main stage so if you're not there to watch Thom Yorke throwing some shapes on the Pyramid stage in person, we'll let you know how you can see it online.
What's the weather going to be like? Will there be mud?
We will be bringing you all of the forecasts.
Glorious mud at the Glastonbury Festival
How do I get there and what will the traffic be like?
Last year was, frankly, a bit of a disaster as rain caused absolute chaos. But this year there was no repeat of those events.
There were additional security checks will be in place and there's lots of advice out there to help keep you safe.
And here are five things we now know about the policing approach to the event.
What will it actually be like on site, is there a map and how do I find my way around?
Never fear, not only can we provide you with a handy map to the site, we've also provided you with a series of guides to help you get the most out of your Glastonbury experience.
The EE app is also a truly invaluable aid for your festival experience.
You simply cannot imagine the scale of the site until you get there and here's the best of the hidden side of Glastonbury.

Alternatively, if it's a slightly more inebriated look at the Worthy Farm site you're after, you can try out the ready made bar crawl.
We've also got a guide as to where you find the best food and some of the vegetarian options that are available. Sadly, you will not be able to enjoy a Growler.
You can also take a preview of some of the areas with our 360 camera guide.
That being said, Glastonbury is most famous for its music and we've provided a series of guides to some of the most famous areas to ensure you don't miss your top acts or help you find your new favourite thing.
The tomato fight isn't happening in 2017 but the Temple area promises to be bigger and better.
Dizzee Rascal and The Jacksons are among the highlights at West Holts.
There's lots of changes at Shangri-La as the area gets its own metal stage and the Earache Express.
One of the most spectacular areas is Arcadia and here's what to expect this year.
And you will be able to get Wi-Fi, that most important of festival essentials.
Tell me more about the headliners
Sure thing. Topping the bill on Friday was Radiohead and here's our review.
After a famously aborted trip in 2015 when frontman Dave Grohl broke his leg, Foo Fighters are back having triumphantly announced their return in a secret gig in Frome earlier this year.
And, possibly the most contentious choice, Ed Sheeran will return to Worthy Farm to take the top Sunday slot. He also wasn't spotted busking in the town of Glastonbury. We think.

This year's legend, by the way, is Barry Gibb who will be belting out the hits on Sunday afternoon on the Pyramid Stage.
But there's lots more to enjoy including Katy Perry, Liam Gallagher, Lorde, Alt-J, Kiefer Sutherland and hundreds of others including Lekiddo Lord of the Lobsters.
So what do I need to pack?
Everything you need to know, you can find in our handy guides to packing. We've also provided you with a guide to where to stop to shop if there's anything you've forgotten.
Here's a round up of the best cider and beer deals ahead of the festival.
We've also provided a handy guide if it's that time of the month and if you should happen to get poorly.
And, if you want, you can also check out what TK Maxx has to offer although some of it may be impractical if there even a hint of mud.
Will there be a Glastonbury in 2018 and how do I get tickets?
There will a be a fallow year in 2018 which means that the event takes a year off. But it will return in 2019 ahead of the 50th anniversary in 2020 (which gives us a chance to look back at 1970).
This is how you can get tickets.
And we expect the first Variety Bazaar to take place in 2021.

West Indian Manatee
Although their bulbous, whiskery face makes this hard to believe today, manatees are probably the source of legends about mermaids. Their human-like eyes must have captivated the early European sailors who caught fleeting glimpses of them swimming in the warm waters of the West Indies.
In the 17th century, mermaids were depicted with their male companions, mermen. Although the legends of these half-fish, half-human creatures have lived on for hundreds of years and are still popular today, it is uncertain whether the manatees that inspired the legends will live on much longer.
Only a concerted effort to protect them in their marine habitat will save manatees from extinction.
Range and Status
Manatees inhabit warm waters of the Western Atlantic from Florida to Brazil where they live in coastal waters, freshwater inlets, and river mouths.
Warm Florida waters have provided wintering refuges for manatees in natural warm water springs. They also are attracted to the warm water outflow from power plants, where on occasion a manatee has gotten stuck and rescue efforts have made the evening news.
Although their range is quite large, manatees today exist only in a few small, isolated populations. They once were widespread in rivers and along coasts in their range, but they were hunted extensively in the 18th and 19th centuries. Coastal development has further reduced their populations. Today, there are less than 2,000 manatees remaining in the United States.
The manatee is a large, bulky aquatic mammal with flippered forelimbs and a spatula-shaped tail. Manatees can grow to 12 feet in length and weigh up to 3500 pounds. They may live to be 50 years old.
The manatee diet consists entirely of vegetation, consuming at a rate of 100 pounds a day. They eat by using their divided upper lip, which is very flexible, to grasp and take in aquatic plants. Like other air-breathing marine mammals (dolphins, whales, and seals), manatees must periodically surface for air.
Females reach sexual maturity between five and nine years of age, but they do not produce many offspring; more animals are killed each year than are born. Mothers are strongly bonded to their calves, but other social ties among manatees are very loose. They are extremely gentle and have been described as incapable of aggression.
Manatees are one of four living species in the Order Sirenia, which also includes the West African manatee, the Amazonian manatee, and the dugong. Another sirenian, the Steller's sea cow, became extinct in the 1700s. The sirenians evolved from an ancestor they share with the elephant, their closest living land relative.
Causes of Endangerment:
The manatee has no known predators other than humans. In the past, humans hunted manatees extensively for their meat, fat, and tough hides. In some parts of the Caribbean and South America, manatees are still hunted for food.
Powerboat Collisions
Powerboats are now the greatest threat to manatees. Manatees are slow, near-surface swimmers, and the number of collisions with motorboats is increasing at an alarming rate.
In 1990, 218 manatees, which comprised 12 percent of the United States' manatee population, were killed in boating accidents, and many more were injured. A recent project to capture, tag, and release manatees revealed that many bore the scars of encounters with speed boats.
Residential and commercial development along rivers and waterways has also affected the manatee population. Habitat destruction has damaged the estuarine seagrass communities on which manatees depend. In addition, chemical pollution has impaired the immune systems of marine mammals, and the manatees may have become more vulnerable to infection as a result.
Recent mass deaths among marine mammals have been traced to greater disease vulnerability due to chemical pollution. In 1988, over 10,000 harbor seals died in Denmark and Sweden from a virus related to canine distemper. PCB's (polychlorinated biphenyl) in the water contaminate the fish that the seals eat. The PCB's accumulate in the seals and make them more susceptible diseases.
Other pollution-related mass deaths have occurred recently in bottle-nosed dolphins in the Gulf of Mexico (1988) and striped dolphins in the Mediterranean Sea (1991).
Sadly, manatees seem to be experiencing an epidemic too. Since the beginning of 1996, more than 250 manatees have been found dead in southwestern Florida. With their population already severely reduced due to other causes, a single epidemic such as this could push the manatee beyond the point of no return, into an extinction vortex.
The spread of the disease may have been facilitated by the gathering of manatees at the warm-water outflows of power plants.
Conservation Actions:
Manatees have been protected for an unusually long time. The English declared Florida a manatee sanctuary in the 1700's and hunting manatees was prohibited. Sanctuary from hunters has not protected the manatee from speed boats, however. Speed limits in waterways can help manatees by giving them enough time to avoid collisions and reducing the severity of collisions when they do occur.
Manatees spend hours grazing underwater everyday, and they can be very exciting to watch in their natural habitat. Manatee-watching tourism gives local people a financial incentive to preserve the species, since tourists spend their dollars at local businesses. Tourists may be inspired to do something to help these beautiful and mysterious creatures.
In Belize, manatee-watching tourism has been a very successful conservation action. Not long ago, local people hunted manatees with rifles, while today manatees are a big attraction for tourist dollars. Unfortunately, the boats that take passengers out to view the manatees have become an increasing threat. Collisions with motor boats are becoming more common and are an increasing cause of manatee mortality in Belize.
More scientific research is needed to understand manatees and their needs. One current study is tracking manatees by satellite to learn more about where they go and what they do. We need to know more about their calving and feeding behaviors.
Citizens are helping to preserve manatees through the Save the Manatee Club, an organization co-founded by singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffet. Citizen involvement also has been an important factor in tracking the recent wave of manatee deaths in Florida. Reports from concerned people are helping scientists study and understand the causes and effects of the epidemic.
Questions For Thought:
Tourists travel to Belize and pay money to see manatees feed in their natural habitat. Tourists also come to see manatees displayed in marine parks such as Sea World. What different impacts do these two types of tourism have on manatee protection?
The avoidance if boating accidents is one of the most important precautions for manatee survival. What kind of a program would you design to educate boaters about manatees?

I have mixed feelings about taking pictures thorugh the window on train journeys, though I do it quite often. While I enjoy just sitting and looking as the coutnryside flashes past, and we rush through towns and villages, our Intercity trains now go too fast, often passing through stations at speeds too fast to be able to read their names.
We can of course use our smartphones to tell us our location, though even they have problems keeping up, and its just a little disconcerting to often see on the map that we are in the middle of a field distant from any railway line.
Looking out of the window also seems to be a waste of time, when I could be reading a book or writing a post such as this, or even be reading Facebook or other web sites on my phone or notebook. But I do quite a lot of it, just feeling slightly guilty, and sometimes take a few pictures.
The great majority of them get deleted either on the spot or later, with line-side posts and bushes having appeared in the fraction of a second between the decision to press the shutter and the actual exposure. Others because my split-second decision was simply wrong – you don't get long to think at 145mph. And then there are those spoilt by dirt on the window, though I try to find a clear patch. Or by reflections that are hardly noticeable when you make the exposure but glaringly obvious in the result.
When I took pictures through train windows more seriously, I would travel with a cloth and, having picked my seat would often go outside and give the relevant window a much-needed clean. Of course it was only really possible if you joined the train at the station it started from and sat on the platform side.
Reflections can be minimised too, first by holding the front of the lens as close to the window as possible, and then by shielding around the lens. A rubber lens hood was useful for this, as it could be pressed up to the glass without transmitting the vibrations of the window to the camera – and if your cleaning cloth was a dark colour it could also be used to help.
I took hundreds of photographs – if not thousands – in this way through windows,though more often shops than trains, and was pleased to see that someone has come up now with 'The Ultimate Lens Hood', a giant version of the rubber lens hood, though it perhaps looks too geeky for me to use it in public.
The journey from Doncaster to Hull flashed past too fast for me to take pictures,, except for one snatched of Alexandra Palace before we really picket up speed, though rather marred by the power lines across it, but the service from Doncaster to Hull proceeds at a leisurely pace – and I think like my own local services rather slower than under British Rail as train operators have added a spare minute here and there to cut down the fines for late running – in the same way they now annoying quote the time of the train as anything up to 2 minutes after you can actually board it. The 12.00 is now really the 11.58 so far as passengers are concerned.
Somewhere in Lincolnshire the line goes along the edge of a large windfarm, and since we were jogging along at perhaps 30 or 40mph I was able to take a whole series of pictures, seven of which I've put on-line. There was even time to think a little about composition, though of course I had no control over the running of the train. But I had time to look at what was coming up and thinking where the train would be, looking out of the window as well as at the camera screen.
Of course I didn't get everything right. Rather more than I've shown were discarded, and even those that are on-line aren't perfect. They've also had some tidying up in Lightroom, including some rotation, perspective correction and cropping, something that would have been tricky to get right in pre-digital days.
I took a few more at other places on the journey, and also read some of my book. Most of what I took were quickly deleted, but I've kept one from Goole and another as we were coming into Hull. I've photographed Goole's famed 'Salt and Pepper' water towers before (and better) standing on the ground but the train does give you a different viewpoint.
You can see another 6 pictures of the windfarm at On the way to Hull. And should you be sitting on a speeding train frustrated by not being able to read the station names, you can always take a burst of pictures as you go through – one of the very few uses I've ever found for those extremely fast shutter speeds on my mirrorless cameras. When else is 1/4000 (or even faster) useful?

The combination of warmth and racing performance is tough to achieve, because insulation usually results in a bulkier garment. The Souplesse Thermal Jersey is both fast and warm. The jersey fabric is slightly thicker than current Souplesse jerseys, and has a fleecy brushed back inner for on-skin comfort. The jersey is cut in our Race fit, and it should be reasonably tight to ensure nothing flaps in the wind and slows you down. Designed for winter training when skies darken earlier, there are reflective elements all over the jersey, as well as headphone loops, and an easy-use Vislon zip.
Rated 5 out of 5 by IdahoDre from Soft, Comfortable, Love the Color (High Vis Pink! I wanted this jersey last year in the high vis pink and it sold out in my size. So glad I was able to snag it this year. While advertised as a winter jersey, I wouldn't wear it alone in colder temps lower than high 40's and I run warm. I'm a XS according to the Rapha size chart but went up to a S and am glad I did - I'm on the low end of the S measurements. This allows me to add a base layer when it gets really cold. I love the color and the fit. Sleeves are long enough, pockets are perfect. Very happy with this jersey!!!
Rated 3 out of 5 by bittasweet from Too thin and odd fit I have last years Souplesse long sleeve jersey and it it a bit thicker than this years. This year's long sleeve is advertised as thermal, but is thinner. And the fit is odd. Again, last year's fit was flattering and spot on. This jersey is tighter in the waist than all other souplesse jerseys. And it's wider in the chest area giving it a sloppy fit and look. I am actually disappointed with this jersey.
Rated 4 out of 5 by katorinda from Thin enough to fit under a vest or jacket It is early fall here, so way too warm to try this out. The bulk is low on this jersey, so I think this will be a good cooler weather (I'm in northern California) jersey that will work well under a vest. Fit is on the small side, but that seems true of all the Souplesse line. I have another Souplesse thermal jersey, but for some reason, this one seems thinner. At any rate, the thinner gear works very well here as our winter temps are mostly high 40s to 50s. No need for heavy gear that I can't layer.
Rated 5 out of 5 by meesa from Beautiful Winter Piece An excellent piece for cooler temperatures. Can be worn as a jersey with an insulated brevet or as a layer over a good jacket. The material is soft and comfortable and provides great warmth. Incredibly happy with the design: sleek, good arm length and incredibly happy with the rich burgundy color. This jersey thought of everything with some extra secret bonuses: a microfiber cloth attached to one jersey pocket and a tag to hold your pump in place in the other. Genius!
Rated 5 out of 5 by JC66 from It's a classic This jacket delivers. It looks great, feels great and works great.
Rated 5 out of 5 by jp4949 from Gorgeous cool weather jersey The quality is excellent, as expected for Rapha. But this is also a very sleek and flattering top. The pink neon stripe on the back and sleeve are sharp and add visibility. 3 nice back pockets and a zipped key/credit card pocket. Rubber strip inside the back hem keeps it in place. Fit is perfect. I purchased a Small and I am 65 inches, 115lb, small bust, longish arms.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Crystal from Best long sleeve jersey Rapha has ever made! I've been a big fan of the Souplesse Thermal Jersey in all it's incarnations, this one however is the best yet! The material is beautiful and the fit is better than ever! I'm in-between sizes and sized up so that I could comfortably fit a long sleeve base layer under. I bought the maroon, but want to get all the colors now!
Is this suitable for 15 to 20 degrees celsius ? Also, is the sizing similar to the latest souplesse aero?
Hi, as we all regulate temperature differently it is hard to advice on the temperature range for individuals and differing exertion levels will also affect its properties but at 20°C you may find this jersey a bit too warm. I would say it will depend on how you regulate temperature and also on what you team it up with. The Aero jersey is lighter.
Hi, this jersey does not come with a heavy fleece inner, this is a long sleeve jersey for racing and has a fleecy brushed back inner (so very soft fleece) for on-skin comfort.
I find your jerseys run small. Does this one run small?
Our Souplesse range is our women's race fit and true to all race fit garments it is built to fit snug and precise.
Is this a ladies top?
Hi, the Souplesse Range is indeed a women's specific range.


The Reluctant Queen is a fictionalized version of the book of Esther. Immediately, upon reading the book I noticed the departures from the biblical account, however since I already knew it was a fictional book I enjoyed the story. Author Joan Wolf has a wonderful ability to transport the reader into another time and place. I enjoyed reading and thinking about the reasons an Israelite would marry a pagan and the reasons Haman acted as he did. It was a little amusing to see how the author gave Esther and Ahasuerus such modern time sentiments and attributes. But hey, it's a love story so what do you expect. On the other hand, it was disturbing how the author portrayed Esther as someone who so quickly was willing to leave the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
