People are free to make their own choices, but, to me, Chrissy is in terrible pain or at least it looks that way to me. If her reality is that she's happy with herself, then, that's a reality that I don't buy. I'd come closer to believing her if she just admitted that she struggles with weight. Pretending to be so okay about it....I just don't believe it. She's a human being though and I take no joy in ridicule. O Obesity is a complex issue and by no means something you can snap your fingers to correct. It's also not a morality issue, imo.
Chrissy was on The Today Show this morning talking about how excited she is to be pregnant on the show. I think it was Hoda who said something about her not going anywhere........was that a slip? Where would she be going? Hmmm.......OH, and Chrissy is in a new MOVIE. She plays the mother of a young child who falls into a frozen river and is then revived from the dead! Sounds pretty interesting.
And, Chrissy is writing music.

You Kate fans out there, what do you like about her? I've always struggled to find something. I want to like her, but there's something about her that just doesn't work for me. Kevin and Randall have flaws but I've come to really love them. Help me out.
I'm a fan because I see so much of myself in her, and it's been really cool (to me) to have a woman of her size find love on a mainstream tv show. That's not something you see every day, and some people get reallllly upset when it's shown (see the response to Gabourey Sidibe's romantic plot - with a regular size guy - on Empire if you're curious). I'm well aware that there's more to me than my size, and *much* more to life than finding a man lol, but it's hard not to internalize society/the media's portrayal that we're not worthy of love. So while her character isn't perfect, neither am I, but I'm glad she's on my tv every week.

I was hoping Kate would lose weight too. I don't watch anymore but I did keep up with the unpopular opinions thread for awhile. I am drifting away from that, too. I stopped by here because I saw that she had worn a bathing suit for the first time recently. I cannot imagine that would be a good experience for her. Her weight is so profound that I doubt she will lose weight on this show. It is far beyond a low carb approach. A medically monitored liquid diet is probably her only option for success. And even then could that be maintained. I know how I feel wanting to lose 25 pounds, I cannot imagine her situation. I feel badly for her.
Wearing a swimsuit is difficult if you haven't made peace with your body. I worked hard through therapy to learn to love my body for all the things it can do and loving the way it looks came after that. Before that, I *dreaded* wearing a swimsuit and avoided it at all costs or wore a t shirt over a swimdress that covered as much of me as possible. After, I just accepted that this is how my body is right now and I can either wear a swimsuit and do something fun or miss out. I finally got a high-waisted bikini (first bikini in my life at size 28 lol) and felt amazing in it. Being comfortable in your skin is possible at any size. Being physically comfortable is another story altogether, though, and after that self-love process I was finally ready to take care of my body, because it deserves that. Fast forward a little over a year and I've lost 70 pounds (I'm now a bit smaller than Chrissy but still weigh 330 pounds) through eating less, tracking what I eat, and I started running in addition to weight machines at the gym. No medical-grade liquid diet needed, just something sustainable I can do for the rest of my life. If she's not ready to lose weight or in a place mentally to do it, it's not going to happen. I don't begrudge her, I've been there, and still am when I think of how much further I have to go.

There was also a huge backlash when Lena Dunham's character on Girls had sex with a character played by Patrick Wilson. I was stunned both by the ugliness and the multitude of the comments - some people seemed to be extremely offended by seeing an average-looking woman having sex with an above-average-looking man.
I'm so happy for you! I stopped being comfortable in swimwear after I hit puberty and my breasts grew to a D-cup seemingly overnight. It's been over 20 years now and I'm still not comfortable wearing anything other than a black one-piece that "minimizes" my cleavage.

That's the only thing I like about Lena or her writing. Guess what? Big girls have sex all the time. When I got married, I was 5' and 215 pounds. My husband, was 5'10" and 178 pounds. And he thought I was beautiful. I ballooned to 275 and he still thought I was beautiful because he loved my insides. Now I'm 155 and he treats me the same. Nothing about his love or attitude changed no matter my size. Some people are color blind, I like to say he was fat blind. And that doesn't even speak to cultures where "heavier" is preferred.

The one episode in which I really liked Kate was the one that had her as an assistant to Jami Gertz. She took charge, she had a storyline that while it was somewhat weight-related, it wasn't wallowing and blaming others. I truly wish she had kept that job, she seemed well suited for it, and I liked the idea of her being a mentor or role model for the daughter. What even happened with that? There was no follow up. If we could see more of that Kate, I would like her character a lot more.

Yes - that backlash was swift and intense! I didn't realize before then how many people had a *big* issue with women that aren't the ideal American model of beauty having sex with attractive men. I didn't realize they were supposed to be off-limits!
I'm so sorry you're still not comfortable in swimwear - puberty is hard when you suddenly get boobs overnight and now seemingly all the men in your life (and entirely too many women) are noticing and often making comments and just, ugh. It's so gross, no wonder you still struggle with anything that doesn't minimize your breasts. I can only imagine the comments Kate's character would have gotten in this fake universe - I hope her grandmothers were nicer than mine and kept their ugly comments to themselves.

I don't know about Jack's mother, but Rebecca's mother mocked Rebecca for marrying a "handyman" and didn't want Randall in any family pictures, so I'm guessing her opinion of Kate's weight was less than supportive.

Just to clarify this article, it's 100% wrong, started by one Twitter user who misheard. Chrissy calls Alison a "babe", not "bitch". The media just jumped on the first piece of drama that they could without verifying for themselves that it was true.
8 hours ago, JudyObscure said:
I'm one of the few people on Earth who haven't watched "Mad Men" (yet?) so I don't know Ms. Brie from Eve. I just posted the article because no one else had done so and it involves Chrissy. I watched and listened to the video and they conveniently bleeped out the allegedly offending word, even though that word is used freely on network TV nowadays. That is suspect to me, and I don't believe Ms. Metz is stupid enough to call someone a bitch in public with a microphone attached to her head, whether she thought it was on or off. She didn't look like she hated on her, so...
Apparently Brie and Metz are buds, or at least cordial with no hard feelings. That's wonderful!
It's so tedious that the media still tries to fabricate feuds between successful women in 2019.
BTW, I highly recommend Alison Brie's Netflix show, GLOW.
1 hour ago, CrystalBlue said:
Actually, if you listen closely to the original video, they don't actually bleep anything. The audio does fade, but Chrissy says "babe". That video intentionally bleeps it out, but if you listen to the original, it doesn't. Then again, Daily Mail UK isn't exactly a very reliable site to use.
I just want to make it clear that even if you're not a fan of Chrissy, the story about her and Alison Brie is completely false.

When Chrissy is on "That Was Us," she sits very high. Presumably this is more comfortable for her, but it looks as if she is on a throne or is much taller than the other people. Someone could adjust the heights of the other seats so this is less distracting.
2 hours ago, Driad said:
But then the other people would be uncomfortable because their legs would not be touching the ground properly. Chrissy is supposed to be 5'5" according to the Internet.
I think a few mismatched chairs, maybe armless chairs, instead of a sofa would solve the problem. Chrissy's chair would just have a lower seat than the others. I've noticed this problem on talk shows before with obese people looking much taller than the others while sitting down, even if they're actually quite short. I think it's just the extra inches on their behinds that prop them up like that.
When Kate is standing up with her tall brothers beside her, like outside Uncle Nicky's trailer, I think she looks very cute in her roundness. Truly "little sister-ish."
Chrissy Metz performs at Country Music Awards, also sings with Carrie Underwood and others! What a great opportunity.

I hope that Ms. Metz is investing her money wisely because the show is supposedly ending in 3 more years (if it's not canceled). Her opportunities may be limited, especially if another obese woman comes on the scene.
When I was younger, Esther Rolle ("Good Times") was always cast as a maid or housekeeper. She was the go to actress for that type of role. Chrissy Metz and Gabourey Sidibe are now the go tos for the fat woman. Hopefully, they will be considered for roles where weight is not the main reason, but their size will always be in the forefront of the viewer's mind.

I'm glad she found something (probably from TIU exposure) that isn't about her weight which is refreshing. I don't think jobs will continue to come as time goes on since so many actress's who are less heavy and older than 30 complain about not getting work. I do hope she will be lucky though.
I don't know if TIU had different scenarios for Kate's character, I know they would have liked the weight loss original one, but that is more of a reality show angle and a lot of pressure for someone to do. I thought back then, that maybe if she did want to lose weight by diet or gastric bypass, they might have hidden it with light padding and made it more dramatic as time went on. I'm glad they gave her leeway and it wasn't like getting fired from Jenny Craig for gaining weight. If they decide to kill her off early (not my guess at this time) and it's tied to her weight, I will wonder if her decision was not favorable. I hope not but you never know.

I have watched her on some talk shows and noticed that furniture has been changed to accommodate her. This change of furniture has also been done for people with mobility issues.
When I was heavier (a little more than 200 pounds), I noticed pains getting around. Knees were aching. I was embarrassed sitting in certain seats because I did not have as much room as others. Ms. Metz may still be mobile but there is stuff breaking down in her body which she needs to deal with. Trust me, my knees are a hell of a lot better since I lost 70 pounds.

I so second this. I should be 150 or s little under . Every time I hit 170 or higher j would have knee aches and feel every pound. My motivation last time was to jog without pain and once weight was lost it was much better. My doc explained how hard it is for knees to take extra weight and can cause damage over time

I've actually tried to change my eating habits and the way I address food over the last couple of years and lost about 50 pounds. It's made a big difference, though, I still have a little bit to go. I can only imagine what a daunting task losing weight would be for Chrissy. I can't imagine even getting started, when you are at her point. The mental and physical anguish must be incredible, but, she seems to embrace it and claim she's happy. I just don't buy it.

Can Kate discover the existence of Lizzo this year? A girls trip to a concert and we see Kate surrounded by other women living their best lives and she becomes forced to get hers going. Backup singing gig? Songwriting? I want something else from Kate than what the writers have been giving.
Or she could not be in any pain at all. No, really. That is also a possibility. I've been overweight for the vast majority of my adult life and my right knee started niggling me a little tiny bit at certain times at like 40. It is the impetus I had to really make an effort to move more and eat less but seriously no pain prior to about 6 months ago and all pain gone before any significant amount of weight was gone.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think she meant she lost a lot of weight before she started on TIU. Apparently, she used to be much heavier. This is a picture of her when she was on American Horror Story:
She does look quite a bit larger there, though it may have been padding.

That is padding. You can see it in the back.
You know that the obesity must be an extremely deep rooted issue with Chrissy, because, the show really wanted her to lose as part of the story and there were so many reasons for her to do it, but, she just chose not to. With the support of the show and her own financial ability, they could have really pulled out all the stops to get her weight down. Like, professional chefs to prepare all meals, professional life coaches to follow her around all day to ensure she stays motivated, personal trainers to guide her in exercise and fitness, and medical professionals to monitor her vitals and progress weekly to ensure that she is healthy throughout the progression. I know that I used to wonder why Oprah couldn't do these things too......she tried....but, it's such a complex problem that all the money in the world can't solve it, if the patient isn't ready.

I guess none of us can actually say that she chose not to do something, or that there are many reasons for her to do something unless we know her and/or hear her spelling out all the reasons.
Maybe she did do that (said she chose to not lose weight), I don't really follow actors and I don't watch interviews. But yes, it is too complex and even the "didn't want to" might have a long list of very reasonable reasons for not doing something, including which options were presented to her, what she might have tried and a lot of other stuff.
Oh, well, yes, I suppose that she could have done all that and tried with the help of a huge team of people, but, I don't think it's likely. I've seen her in quite a few interviews and she doesn't seem to be bothered by her weight. She claims, she's fine. And, even in her book, she seems to be okay with her obesity. So, as long as she's so okay with it, I don't think she's likely to change. But, the photo of her on the cover of the book is rather puzzling. I've never seen her face that thin and the way they are showing just a portion of her shoulder and strap, it appears that she is several hundred pounds less than what she is. But, maybe, that was the publisher's decision and not hers.
https://www.amazon.com/This-Me-Loving-Person-Today/dp/0062837877
She claims, she's fine. And, even in her book, she seems to be okay with her obesity.
It must take an amazing strength of mind to be able to be fine and ok in our society that is highly intolerant of obesity, especially in women.
I do think it takes a lot of courage to get up every day and move one foot in front of the other when that size. (It must be very exhausting and painful.) But, I think it could also be considered denial or delusional thinking.

I think the show runners initially had this idea of, how wonderful would it be to start with a huge actress, and then have her lose weight!?
I've always been so uncomfortable with that clause being built into an employment contract it makes it hard for me to justify the show getting all the accolades it does. The Kate character hasn't had any storylines that don't go back to her weight and that makes it so uncomfortable to watch as everyone now seems to have opinions on Chrissy the actress as well. We can argue that she signed up for this, but I doubt that Chrissy knew this show would be such a huge hit.
I don't know if it's an unpopular opinion, but I worry about the long term mental health of the actress. Toby was wearing padding at the beginning of the show, so the actor is fairly insulated from having his weight be the focal point of discussion by anyone who watches the show. When actors gain weight for roles, it doesn't generate this much crossover into their personal lives.
Again, I don't know what CM has chosen or not chosen to do in terms of her weight loss, but it makes me very uncomfortable that her body and condition has in some way become public property by being on the show. I've been trying to explain what makes me uncomfortable about watching the show regularly and I hope I could articulate it clearly.

I get where you're coming from, but I think this is the price Chrissy is paying for getting to have an extremely successful acting career. It's impossible for any story to have a character of her size and not focus on her weight at all. As someone said in another thread, Dan Fogelman originally wanted a character who was his sister's size, but not to make her story all about the weight. His sister told him that when you're that big, everything revolved around your weight.

I think her type of obesity does end up impacting your life in every way to some degree, but we have seen storylines for her where it wasn't the focus - such as her infertility treatment and pregnancy. Her weight factors in, but it wasn't a driving focus. Similar, when Toby had a heart attack, there wasn't much focus on her weight. Even her pursuit of a singing career, her weight was mentioned but it wasn't really the focus.
Overall, I think the show has handled it fairly delicately. Her storyline initially seemed like it was going to be a story of weight loss and when that didn't happen, the show adjusted.

I just watched a portion of it on the website, including her song performance. I do think she looks a little larger, but, her face appears rather puffy. That could be fluid. Hard to tell.
Her vocals were good, but, not great. She's okay but, definitely, not a professional vocalist, imo. I know about several people personally, who sing better that her to me. It's nice that she enjoys it, but, I just don't see it as a career. Her acting is much better than her singing. lol

Is this something that really happened, or is it speculation? If this is something that really happened it has so many implications and is rooted in so many wrongs.
It's my understanding that it's not uncommon for an actor to contract to lose or gain weight for roles. It's about what the writers have in store for the character. If she breached her contract, she could have been released from it. I suspect they decided to go another direction. So, I suppose that Chrissy was fortunate.

The article forgot Dennis Quaid, who after losing a lot of weight had to be treated for anorexia.
It is still wrong to put things like "must lose weight during the running of the show". I will not say that those actors who lost weight for a movie made a wrong decision. Not my problem, it was their choice. But in the case of a show, something they dot even know will last for more than one season, demand that an actor follow the ideas a show runner has about how their body should look like, and when it should like a certain way to satisfy the plot, is disgusting - not to mention that they change plots all the time. And I think it is wrong even if the actor wants to do it, because it legally binds someone to something not all of us have control of, and not all of us can predict the outcomes as far as health s concerned - nutritionist involved or not. Sometimes obesity is so much more than "lack of will".
But then again, I still don't know if that was the case with this actor, or if it is just speculation.
From everything that I read and saw, it really was the design of the show for her to lose weight. It was never denied and I believe that Chrissy did admit it, back in the earlier seasons. If I am able, I'll post a link about it. They even went there with the bariatric surgery storyline. Kate, eventually decided to not have the surgery. But, it might have been that she was denied the surgery. Most super, morbidly obese patients are required to lose a substantial about of weight to demonstrate that they are able to comply with diet and they have to be under 500 pounds for the doctor to perform the surgery. So, it's unlikely that Chrissy qualified for that surgery.. And, surgery is not always a great solution. I'm not advocating that at all. It has substantial risks and does not always work long term for people who have food addictions. I know a couple of people who died within a few years of that surgery and one right now has had organ failure.
.......Okay. Found a link. She said in interview that she did sign contract to lose weight for the show, but, there was no timeline. The weight issue is based on the writer's sister's weight issue.

Brexit campaigner Boris Johnson to stand as next Conservative leader

"I am going for it, of course, I am going for it," Johnson told the BBC. "I don't think that is any particular secret to anybody."
The winner of the leadership contest will automatically become prime minister and will take control of the Brexit process, which has plunged Britain into its worst political crisis since World War Two.
Johnson was widely expected to run for the Conservative leadership in the aftermath of the Brexit vote in 2016 but his campaign collapsed before he announced he was standing when an ally withdrew support amid claims he could not unite the party.
Two weeks later he was made foreign minister, but resigned from the cabinet last July in protest at May's handling of the exit negotiations.
Johnson has been one of May's most outspoken critics over Brexit and supports leaving the EU without a deal, a scenario the government's own economic forecasts have warned would leave the British economy 8 percent smaller by 2035.
The former Mayor of London was widely expected to run and set out his pitch to the Conservative membership in a speech at the party's annual conference last October.
Betting odds indicate he is the leading candidate to replace May and has a 28 percent chance of being the next prime minister.
If Johnson became prime minister it would cap an eventful career for the man invariably referred to simply as "Boris", known in Britain and beyond for his clownish persona and disheveled mop of blond hair.
He has a long record of gaffes and scandals. As foreign minister, he compared the French president to a World War Two guard administering punishment beatings and was caught on camera reciting a colonial-era poem in a sacred temple in Myanmar.
Several senior Conservatives are expected to enter the contest for the leadership.
The international development minister Rory Stewart and former work and pensions minister Esther McVey have announced they will run and leader of the House of Commons Andrea Leadsom has said she is "considering" standing.
Other possible contenders include former and current members of the cabinet, including environment minister Michael Gove, the interior minister Sajid Javid and foreign minister Jeremy Hunt.

Cold War paranoia nearly led to a nuclear disaster 50 years ago, when an American B-52 bomber exploded over Spain and dropped four hydrogen bombs near the tiny village of Palomares.
The disaster over Spain had its roots in Cold War tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union. For several years leading up to 1966, the Air Force's Strategic Air Command had been constantly flying bombers to the fringe of the Iron Curtain as part of "Operation Chrome Dome," a scheme to give the United States first strike and retaliation capabilities in the event of a nuclear shootout with the Russians. At least a dozen B-52s were patrolling the skies over the Atlantic and Europe around the clock, each with a payload of hydrogen bombs nestled in its belly.
At around 10:20 a.m. on January 17, 1966, a B-52 commanded by Captain Charles Wendorf was several hours into a routine "Chrome Dome" overflight. Having taken off from North Carolina and buzzed along the Turkish-Soviet border, the plane now prepared for a midair refuel over the southern coast of Spain. Relief pilot Major Larry Messinger was at the controls as the bomber maneuvered underneath a KC-135 Stratotanker. It was a relatively routine procedure, but as Messinger later told author Barbara Moran, when he tried to position his plane near the tanker's refueling boom, "all hell seemed to break loose." For reasons that are still not entirely clear, the B-52 came in too hot and collided with the KC-135, drenching both planes in fuel and triggering an explosion. Messinger, Wendorf and two other men managed to eject or parachute out of their B-52 before it broke apart, but three other crewmen were killed. All four airmen in the KC-135 perished after their tanker was engulfed in flames.
Wreckage from the B-52 and KC-135 soon rained down on Palomares, a seaside farming community whose 2,000 residents were known for cultivating tomatoes. "I looked up and saw this huge ball of fire, falling through the sky," villager Manolo Gonzalez later told Public Radio International. "The two planes were breaking into pieces." Despite hunks of twisted metal landing near a schoolhouse, no one was killed on the ground, and the four American survivors were soon rescued and taken to a nearby hospital.
What the villagers didn't immediately know was that the falling debris had included the B-52's payload of four Mark 28 thermonuclear weapons—hydrogen bombs with 70 times the destructive power of the device dropped on Hiroshima. One of the weapons parachuted into the Mediterranean a few miles off the coast, while the other three came down in Palomares. None of the bombs produced a nuclear blast, but the conventional explosives on two of them detonated upon impact, dispersing radioactive plutonium dust across the countryside.
Despite early reports in the media that a nuclear device had been lost, the U.S. military and the regime of Spanish dictator Francisco Franco remained tightlipped about the operations taking place in Palomares. According to journalist Tad Szulc, when asked by a reporter about the search for the missing nuke, one U.S. briefing officer replied, "I don't know of any missing bomb, but we have not positively identified what I think you think we are looking for." The halfhearted cover-up only served to drive the rumor mill. The Soviets' Radio Moscow broadcasted that the entire area was drenched in "lethal radioactivity," and an Australian newspaper wrote of a "death rain" from an H-bomb.
A week after Duke's photo stunt, the submarine Alvin finally located the missing fourth bomb in 2,500 feet of water some five miles off the coast. Retrieving it proved to be no easy task. A cable snapped during an attempt to bring it up on March 26, and the Navy task force lost track of the bomb until April 2, when Alvin found it a second time. Finally, on April 7, 1966—nearly three months after the B-52 crash—the waterlogged nuke was successfully winched from the depths and brought aboard the Navy ship USS Petrel. Reporters were allowed to photograph it the following day. According to the New York Times, it was the first time the U.S. military had displayed a nuclear weapon to the public.
The recovery of the fourth bomb brought a close to one of the largest undersea searches in history, but it wasn't the end of Palomares' brush with nuclear disaster. Some 650 acres of local land had been sprayed with radioactive material when the three other weapons landed in town. American troops had conducted a cleanup and hauled away some 1,400 tons of contaminated topsoil and vegetation, but there was still the matter of the residents who had potentially been exposed to carcinogenic plutonium dust. A medical monitoring system was established, and for the last several decades, the United States and Spain have funded annual health checkups on locals. While at least five percent of those screened show traces of plutonium in their bodies, officials maintain that the amount is well below the danger levels. One published study found that Palomares' cancer rates were no different than those in another Spanish town of a similar size.
Despite its relatively clean bill of health, there is evidence that nuclear material still lingers in Palomares. In 2006, the Spanish center for energy research, or CIEMAT, announced the discovery of radioactive snails in the region. Other examinations have yielded contaminated debris and higher than expected levels of plutonium in the soil, and certain parts of the town remain fenced off and closed to construction to this day. In October 2015, after several years of negotiations, the U.S. government signed a statement of intent to assist Spain in finishing the 50-year-old cleanup process in Palomares. Along with the removal of the town's nuclear-contaminated soil, the deal also calls for any waste to be disposed of at a site in the United States.

Gary Wilmot premieres his new thriller in Bognor Regis
Gary Wilmot
Hot on the heels of starring in Flowers For Mrs Harris at Chichester Festival Theatre, Gary Wilmot hot-foots it to Bognor Regis to direct the premiere of his thriller, Sweet Lorraine (Regis Centre, Wednesday, October 17-Saturday October 20).
"I had the idea for the ending and I started with that, and then 18 months ago I was in Dublin in a show playing a small role," Gary recalls. "I thought I want to get this play written down by the end. I sat in my dressing room for hours, never missing a cue, just writing it, and when I finished it I showed it to some of the cast, and they were really encouraging."
The next piece in the jigsaw was Hazel Latus who runs the Regis Centre in Bognor.
"I have known Hazel for 40 years. She was an agent in the agency office that represented me, and that's how we met we each other, but it had been about 20 years since I had last seen Hazel. We had a little reunion, and I met Hazel there and it was fantastic. She explained to me that she had started being involved in her local theatre and she said to me that she wanted to embark on doing new writing. I said I had just finished writing the play."
They got together, had a read-through and a workshop, and the journey towards October's premiere was under way.
The piece, as Gary explains, is a tale of revenge.
Harry Burns (Harry Burton), a highly-respected jazz musician, is accepting of a life where the good times and fame are behind him. He now pays his bills by teaching music, and when Lorraine Travis, (Martha Dancy), sits at his piano for her first lesson, Harry's life takes a thrilling turn – he is inspired, excited and adored again.
But Lorraine brings more than just talent and enthusiasm into his life. He finds himself faced with the truth of his past.
"It's the story of a daughter wanting revenge for what she believes her father did to her mother. The play is Lorraine's journey… It is quite a dark piece, and we have got a fantastic set.
"I have written stuff before, but it is tough getting it on. That's the problem. It is a funny old business. If you were working as a plumber and then became an electrician, people would refer to you as an electrician, but it in not like that in this business.
"It has taken me a long time to lose the title of impressionist Gary Wilmot… even though I haven't done impressions for 20 years."
Gary could have been in the play but he is preferring to direct, a chance to watch it as a whole, observe it from the audience's point of view.
"I just wanted to step back, but it has been great. Everybody has been really supportive and genuinely loving it.
Four of the best family-friendly events in West Sussex
"And it has been great (at Chichester in rehearsals for Flowers For Mrs Harris) to watch (director) Daniel (Evans), to watch how carefully he treats people, how well he treats people. He is one of the best."
There is an element of try-out about the Bognor production: "But this is a new venture for them as well. We have not gone for famous people just wanting to put bums on seats. We have gone for people that will be right in the play. We have not purposely ignored famous people, but we want people to come away thinking 'That was great! I must go back to the theatre!' rather than thinking 'Well, that was good but he was much better as Danny or whoever in EastEnders!' I just want to see people considering going to the theatre in the way that they might perhaps consider going to the cinema."

Motorcyclist, 26, suffers serious injuries in Balcombe collision


Changes to ICBC, including the claims dispute system, have been implemented.
BC's Attorney General, David Eby, says the two biggest changes, which went into effect on Monday, April 1st, have to do with the claims dispute process, and minor injury awards.
"The biggest change is that every single claim that someone has against ICBC, every dispute, no longer goes to the BC Supreme Court. It's now going to go to the civil resolution tribunal. This is an independent tribunal, from ICBC and from government, that will be resolving these disputes. And then there's also a limit on the maximum of the pain and suffering awards for what's called in the law a minor injury, though it might be quite serious for someone. But this is the award that recognizes that they've been injured, and the maximum has been set at $5,500."
Eby adds that these changes will allow ICBC to save about a billion dollars a year, which will end being reflected in drivers's insurance premiums. He says without the changes, British Columbian's would have had to face a 40% increase to premiums to cover ICBC's loses.
Ever since the proposed changes were announced, trial lawyers and personal injury lawyers have been speaking out, and threatening to sue the government. Eby says he understands that the changes, which he says are constitutional, will have a negative impact on their business. He adds that although the BC Supreme Court is a good tool for resolving disputes, it doesn't make sense to have a $50,000 process that may end up taking years to resolve, and only pay out $100,000. Eby adds that it's a very expensive system for car crashes, and British Columbians deserve a better, simpler process.
Eby also says that the government has a goal of keeping insurance rate increases to inflation or lower, and the changes will do their part in making that goal a reality.
"There are some people who are going see significantly lower rates in September. If you have a long history of accident free driving, and you're not excessively speeding or engaging in drunk driving, you're going to see a reduction in your rates. If you engage in high risk activities, in September you're going to see a significant increase in your rate. There's a re-balancing that's happening there. But what no British Columbian is going to see is the 40% increase that we would have to do if we didn't make the changes to save a billion dollars."
He adds that these are the first of a series of fixes to the insurance corporation. Eby says they have to tackle the big issues first, then move on to issues related to auto-body repair and other costs to the insurer.
What's going on with ICBC?

ALBANY — Over the past six months, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo raised more than $2 million for his reelection campaign in 2022. The three-term incumbent now has more than $13.3 million in cash on hand.
Fundraising was made more difficult for candidates over the past six months because of the economic upheaval caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Cuomo's total was less than the $4.5 million he raised during the same time period in 2019. Still, he has benefited from widespread viewing of his televised daily updates on the coronavirus health crisis, which has substantially bolstered his national profile.
Cuomo's biggest single donation the past six months, for $60,000, was from Marilyn Simons, who is married to billionaire hedge fund manager and philanthropist James Simons.
State Attorney General Letitia James, a fellow Democrat, focused on collecting small donations the past six months, taking only eight that exceeded $250. She raised about $43,000 from more than 400 donors and has $513,000 on hand.
Another Democrat, state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli, raised only about $43,000 and has $708,000 in his campaign account.

Democrats tell Biden it's time to go big
Cuomo, James and DiNapoli, who all easily won statewide elections in 2018, do not yet have clearly viable challengers for 2022.
The campaign fundraising of the state Senate Democratic conference has surged since the Democrats took the Senate majority in 2018, and the conference's campaign arm now has $4.58 million in cash, while its housekeeping account has $651,000.
By contrast, state Senate Republicans' fundraising has plummeted since losing the majority, with the campaign arm now holding $590,000 in cash and the housekeeping account $287,000.
Democrats in some individual swing districts also hold advantages. In the race to replace retiring state Sen. George Amedore, a Republican from Rotterdam, Democratic nominee Michelle Hinchey reported having $164,000 on hand. Hinchey, the daughter of the late former Congressman Maurice Hinchey, faces Republican Richard Amedure, a retired state trooper. Ademure reported having $50,100 in campaign funds.

Der Boboli-Garten (Giardino di Boboli) ist ein Park in Florenz und Heimstatt einer wichtigen Sammlung von Skulpturen.

Die Anlage, die hinter dem Palazzo Pitti liegt, dem Hauptsitz der Medici als Großherzöge der Toskana, ist einer der bekanntesten italienischen Gärten des 16. Jahrhunderts. Im Gartenbaustil der Zeit weist er lange Achsen auf, breite Kieswege, eine beachtliche "Möblierung" durch steinerne Elemente, den verschwenderischen Einsatz von Statuen und Brunnen, und eine Aufteilung in halbprivate und öffentliche Bereiche, die durch klassische Akzente gebildet wurde: Grotten, Nymphen, Gartentempel und Ähnliches. Die Offenheit des Gartens, der einen ausgedehnten Blick über die Stadt erlaubt, war für die Zeit ungewöhnlich.

Der Boboli-Garten wurde von Eleonora von Toledo angelegt, der Ehefrau von Großherzog Cosimo I. Das Land für den Garten wurde einer Familie Bogoli abgekauft, wovon sein Name abgeleitet ist. Die erste Phase war gerade von Niccolò Tribolo begonnen worden, als er 1550 starb, und wurde von Bartolomeo Ammanati fortgeführt, der von Giorgio Vasari bei der Planung unterstützt wurde, von dem auch einige der Grotten gebaut wurden, während die Skulpturen von Bernardo Buontalenti stammen. Die Architektur der Grotte im Hof, der den Palast vom Garten trennt, ist ebenfalls von Buontalenti.

Die Hauptachse, die auf die rückwärtige Fassade des Palazzos gerichtet ist, steigt von einem tiefgelegenen Amphitheater – das in seiner Form an ein halbes klassisches Hippodrom erinnert – auf den Bobolihügel hinauf. In der Mitte des Amphitheaters steht ein ägyptischer Obelisk, der von der Villa Medici in Rom hierher gebracht wurde. Diese Hauptachse endet am Neptun-Brunnen (den die respektlosen Florentiner "Gabelbrunnen" nennen) und einer Skulptur von Stoldo Lorenzi. Eine lange zweite Achse im rechten Winkel zur Hauptachse führt durch eine Reihe von Terrassen und Wasserspielen.

Der Garten wurde in mehreren Phasen erweitert und umgebaut. Im 17. Jahrhundert bekam er seine heutige Größe von 4,5 Hektar. Er ist mittlerweile ein Freilichtmuseum der Gartenskulptur, darin eingeschlossen römische Altertümer ebenso wie Arbeiten des 16. und 17. Jahrhunderts.

In der ersten Phase der Arbeiten wurde das Amphitheater am Hang hinter dem Palast ausgeschachtet. Anfangs aus gegrabenen Terrassen bestehend, wurde es erst später in Stein ausgebaut und mit Statuen versehen, die auf der antiken Mythologie basieren, wie zum Beispiel der Okeanos-Brunnen, der von Giambologna skulptiert wurde, und erst später seinen heutigen Platz an einer anderen Stelle des Gartens bekam. Die kleine Madama-Grotte und die große Grotte wurden von Vasari begonnen und von Ammanati und Buontalenti zwischen 1583 und 1593 vollendet.

Die große Grotte ist ein bemerkenswertes Beispiel des Manierismus. Innen und außen mit Stalaktiten dekoriert, und ursprünglich mit Wasserspielen und üppiger Vegetation versehen, ist die Grotte in drei Hauptteile gegliedert. Der erste sollte mit Fresken den Eindruck einer natürlichen Grotte entstehen lassen, in der sich Schäfer vor wilden Tieren schützen konnten, und enthielt ursprünglich Michelangelos "Die Gefangenen" (heute durch Kopien ersetzt, die Originale stehen in der Galleria dell'Accademia), die eigentlich für das Grab des Papstes Julius II. vorgesehen waren. Andere Räume der Grotte enthalten Giambolognas berühmte Badende Venus und eine Paris-und-Helena-Gruppe von Vincenzo de Rossi aus dem 16. Jahrhundert.

Die Anlage kann besichtigt werden, der Eintritt ist kostenpflichtig.

Obujam motora je osnovna vrijednost koja nam govori o veličini motora kod manjih izvedbi, kao što su motori za automobile ili motorkotače. Tako govorimo o motorkotačima s 250, 500,750 ccm što znači da oni imaju obujam motora od toliko kubnih centimetara. Obujam motora se dobije tako da se vrijednost obujma jednog cilindra pomnoži s brojem cilindara.

Pri definiranju obujma cilindra, treba se prvo definirati obujam stapaja i obujam kompresije.

Obujam kompresije je obujam koji je u cilindru u trenutku kada se klip nalazi u GMT-u. On je umnožak površine provrta cilindra i visine između čela klipa i glave cilindra (na desnoj slici označen s h). Na stranici promjer cilindra dana je formula za izračun površine, a iz nje slijedi i formula za volumen kompresije:

Obujam stapaja je obujam koji klip istisne na svom putu iz DMT-a u GMT. Analogno gornjoj formuli, obujam stapaja je jednak:

gdje je s - stapaj

Obujam cilindra je obujam poviše čela klipa u cilindru kada se klip nalazi u DMT-u. Na desnoj slici možemo vidjeti da je obujam cilindra jednak zbroju obujma kompresije i obujma stapaja:

Obujam motora dobijemo kada volumen stapaja pomnožimo s brojem cilindara:

gdje je n - broj cilindara motora

Demi Moore is down to party, and she doesn't care who knows it. The fifty-year-old is currently in Miami, Florida alongside rumored boyfriend Vito Schnabel, and together, they hit up a Chanel sponsored party last night. By all accounts, Moore was the evening's most energetic partygoer, repeatedly dancing and chatting up a storm with Lenny Kravitz and George Clooney's girlfriend Stacy Keibler.
According to E! Online, Schnabel and Moore made out in full view of the other guests. Neither of the two has publically confirmed the relationship. In fact, the twenty-six-year-old even denied it to TMZ, but sources close to the two are saying they've very much together, though she's apparently more excited about partying than him.
Both Moore and Schnabel have been confirmed as guests for tonight's Dom Perignon party at the W Hotel in South Beach. He's currently in town for the much publicized Art Basel Miami Beach fair, as he's an art dealer with numerous clients who are participating. Whether she's just tagging along or also has business in the city is unclear, but either way, their time in the city should go a long way to determining whether this is a flash in the pan or a serious long-term romance possibility. It's one thing to spend a few date nights together and have a lot of fun. It's quite another to want to make someone an authentic part of your life.
We'll keep you updated as this relationship progresses.
