Grandpa lifts her up to see out so explains why he is at the one open window because the others are tinted and he wants her to be able to see out. So, of course, he knew the window was open. But he thinks he has a good grip on her. She's a little heavy, so he braces her feet on the railing to take some of the weight, still holding on tight. Child not knowing there was no glass, lunges to try to bang on it, maybe even pushing off the railing with her feet. Takes grandpa by surprise, he loses his grip and out she goes. Toddlers can be very strong and if she had sunscreen on slippery .He thought he had a good grip. Poor choices, but I could see it happening. Of course, the lawyer is twisting this to try to show neigliance because that is what they do. Btw DD and SIL are both lawyers. A horrible tragic accident that can happen in an instant. Praying for the family. Mary Ann I agree, this explanation makes the most sense. If a toddler pushes hard with her legs, sometimes there's no controlling her. No negligence, no old brain, no bad vision. Just a horrible accident that changes their lives forever. And something that he'd probably give his own life to get that moment back. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, the Ludgershall ladies will recall me spending the better part of a 9 hour crop working on this anniversary card for my DH. I have had the box (one with a clear window in the top) for ages and every time I tidy up I come across it, consider just tossing it in the bin, and decide to save it in the end. Glad I did!
Here is the front of the card:
I'm in danger of using those wedding flowers too frequently so I may have to make a conscious effort to avoid them for a bit, although I do love the look!
Anyway, you can just see, at the top, two little pegs. They are the key to it all! Here is the first panel:
When you turn the pegs, the panels move, curling around the post (a bamboo skewer) that goes down inside the box. The long piece of paper is stuck to the skewer. Here is a mid turn shot so you can get the idea!
I missed out snapping a photo of the second frame, but I think you can get the idea from what you can see here!
Third frame:
Fourth frame:
Final frame:
As today is our 25th wedding anniversary I had to wait till today to share it because I know DH reads my blog!
The real problem with it was that in order for the paper to rotate and curl around the skewers, it had to be pretty thin paper. But thin paper tends to be a bit more porous than you really need for Copic markers – again, the gals from the crop will recall the cursing and whingeing I did when the green on the 4th panel bled well outside the stamped lines! You can just see some of the brown that bled from the hair – that I couldn't fix at all. But I totally did a happy dance in my seat when I figured out I would add some scratchy lines and extend the trousers so the bleeding wasn't really noticeable!
The entire quote is: To my love. Of all the men I have known in my life, only you have my heart. Sappy but then 25 years does deserve a bit of schmaltz.
I had hoped that eventually when I was ready to share, I might be able to use it for the Stampotique challenge. I have been SO busy recently it seems it's been months since I have had the time to take part it what was always the one and only challenge I did routinely (at ALL, if I'm honest!) but the challenge this week time was for a Triptych card and no matter how I tried to justify it I just couldn't twist this one to work. So, I had to buckle down and make one – hey, anything to avoid the final push in my scraproom tidy!
I immediately had an idea. I figured as long as I had already cut masks for the stamps from the box card I might as well make use of them before I lost them LOL! And the girl with the heart was out anyway, so….
You may remember that DS is something of a whiz with cards – he does amazing tricks, with great dexterity. Last year for Christmas, as a bit of a joke, I bought him a HUGE deck of cards. I've placed it by my Big Bite so you can get some perspective:
I used one of the huge cards as the basis for the triptych (as DS says it's too hard to do a proper trick with such monster cards, I figured he wouldnt' mind if I cut a couple of them up!)
And inside….
I also found the tiny deck of cards, from a set of Christmas crackers, I think, and decided to use them for some additional decoration – it's quite hard to do the Stampotique only week when all you have are people. I would have used maybe some swirls or texture stamps but not allowed so I had to come up with something else.
Here you can see a bit better the central figure – with one of my head-swaps and a BIG crown – on the transparency that fills the area of the card that would usually have the queen. The masking and layering of all the Stampotique "men" worked better then I thought it might. I liked them B&W, I wasn't just being lazy about my colouring in, I promise you!
So now there really is no avoiding it – I must drag out the hoover, sort the stray piles of crafty stuff, and prepare for WOYWW tomorrow!
And for my hubby:
Happy Anniversary sweet pea! Still love ya!

Portola is the only incorporated city in eastern Plumas County and is home to the wide variety of public services one expects to find in a small city: hospital, schools, parks, library, churches, airport, post office, service organizations and commercial businesses including grocery stores, hardware store, auto parts store, pharmacy, gas station, restaurants, beauty salon, etc.
This historic family-oriented town was originally built in 1910 by the Western Pacific Railroad, and offers a wide variety of housing stock including affordable first-time homes, manufactured homes and custom-built homes. Properties in town are a fairly typical lot and block layout while properties on the outskirts of town have a more rural, country feel. Two natural phenomena anchor the town: the middle fork of the Feather River, which runs through the center of town, and the towering Beckwourth Peak on the south end of town.
With the Sierra Nevada range to the west and the expansive Sierra Valley to the east, Portola enjoys some of the most spectacular sunrises and sunsets in the area. In addition to the many conveniences of city life, Portola is also surrounded by national forest for easy access to the outdoors.
Portola is also the gateway to beautiful Lake Davis, paradise for anglers, kayakers, campers and day use visitors alike. The irregular shoreline with its many small to large peninsulas creates miles and miles of lake frontage to test your skills with the fish, have a family picnic or camp for the weekend. A new non-paved bike path circles the lake, allowing enjoyment for cyclists of all skill levels.
Portola lies 10 miles east of Graeagle and is conveniently situated on both the north and south sides of highway 70, just 50 miles from downtown Reno, NV. Many in the community commute to Reno for work and to take advantage of the additional retail opportunities Reno offers.

Welcome from Portsmouth. Is my injury the same as yours? Rear lower leg, some sharp pains for a while now just left with a dull ache and the feeling the muscle has gone taught and won't loosen? Particularly noticeable when I walk and flex my feet normally, I limp a bit to compensate. Slow to repair as well.

Yesterday in Smutty Social Media, I said that I'd like to Gossip Genie Alexander Skarsgård and Halle Berry, if for no other reason than their collective beauty.
Well ask and someone (not me) shall receive. Yesterday Halle went "Insta official" with someone named Alex. Not the Alex I was suggesting, but another one. His name is Alex Da Kid (I'm going with the way he styles his name, I've also seen it as da Kid), a 35-year-old very successful producer who has worked with Rihanna, Dr. Dre and Eminem. So it's safe to say I won't be predicting anyone's future. In fact, I suck at wishing on the Gossip Genie, but that doesn't mean I'll stop. (JLo and Leo is my ultimate wish. See? I'm delusional.)
Not only did they go Insta official, but they posted the same photo with the same caption. (With slightly different punctuation. Are his ellipses a sign of thoughtfulness or hesitation? If one of my girlfriends was dating someone and he posted this, we'd dissect it for hours.)
Halle Berry is not new to this – she had a planned roll out. She wants us to know that she is serious with Alex (Da Kid, not Skarsgård). She hasn't been seriously linked to anyone since her divorce from Olivier Martinez, so it's a big step. And she has a complicated history. More complicated than Brad Pitt or Ben Affleck or Angelina Jolie? No, but people have always perceived her to have a lot of love drama. She's been married three times (she and Gabriel Aubry never married), so she's on par with Tom Cruise, Jennifer Lopez, Kate Winslet and Drew Barrymore.
Still, the idea that she's unlucky in love and prone to messy breakups has stuck, and not in the fun "Julia Roberts was a runaway bride!" way. No one is writing cute listicles about Halle Berry's exes. But for a very famous, top tier movie star and glass ceiling smasher, what's 3 marriages over nearly three decades of movie stardom? It's downright economical, really. It's not scandalous at all.
Today, at 51, she is feeling herself. She is definitely feeling 35-year-old Alex (Da Kid, not Skarsgård). Oh and she chose the week she has a new movie coming out - Kingsman: The Golden Circle - to tell us about him. Did I mention Halle has been in the movie star business since 1991? So I'm sure the timing is purely coincidental.
Also attached - Halle at the Kingsman premiere in London the other day.

Somebody reacted as if she thinks that I am lazy with what I have posted that I don't even have any idea who she is. Where she is coming from, that I don't know. Out of that simple idea I came to a point of thinking of the idea, does lazy exist? For me I greatly believe that laziness doesn't exist. Here are the reasons why:
Your interest is created by yourself. You can be interested on things or maybe not. You can be a math lover or not into it. You like football or you may not even. The absence of interest towards coming to your work early, does it implies your lazy? I would definitely say no. Even if you are required to be in the office as early as 8:00 o'clock in the morning. Now your boss look an alternative way to motivate you in coming to office at the given time but still it doesn't work out. You still end up going to work late. You will then be punished out of the said mistake that could give you the chance of losing your job.
Lazy is the word wherein there is no connection to lack of interest. You cannot push through a person to things in accordance to your will if he doesn't have any interest of it. It would be very difficult for him to motivate himself to do what you want out from his likes.
In a situation wherein you are supervising other people regardless of positions and age you own the power of imposing rules to let this people activate. Remember that you cannot impose interests with all your power even if you're the boss. You cannot change someone out of you position who doesn't have any interest of changing of himself. But you have the ability to let them do some tasks in another way around, just to fulfill such duties that has been required.
London escorts of https://charlotteaction.org/ says that once your child don't like the idea of cleaning his own room means that he is lazy? It just that he don't have any interest of cleaning his own room. Always put in mind that you cannot dictate people to what they like and wants. People have different opinions same as they have different interest too. You cannot manipulate someone to like on things which is out from his sort of interests.
People are created uniquely thus people were encouraged to do things with their interest. Out of this perception you allow the person to decide on his own and make his own identity through his interest. A person could be very best if he is engaged into his likes and desires. He will find ways to be the best amongst others. The ability to create a better disposition towards his life in order to sustain and attain his success. Without supervision this man could function well as he is inspired to do things with his own interest.

It's over for Ewan McGregor and Eve Mavrakis.
TMZ reports Ewan and Eve both filed for divorce after 22 years of marriage. He cites irreconcilable differences.
Ewan is asking for joint custody of their three minor children, but Eve wants sole physical custody and just visitation for McGregor. The actor is agreeable to paying spousal support.
The two did not have a prenup, so their property will likely be evenly divided.
Ewan has moved on with his "Fargo" co-star Mary Elizabeth Winstead. In fact, he thanked both women in his Golden Globes speech.

Funk U - This Beat Will Hit Ya
Label: SPEKTRA - SPK064 • Format: 2x, File MP3 320 kbps • Country: Spain • Genre: Electronic • Style: Breaks
Funk de-emphasizes melody and chord progressions and focuses on a strong rhythmic groove of a bassline played by an electric bassist and a drum part played by a drummeroften at slower tempos than other popular music. Like much of African-inspired musicfunk typically consists of a complex groove with rhythm instruments playing interlocking grooves that created a "hypnotic" and "danceable feel".
Funk originated in the mids, with James Brown 's development of a signature True Believer - Delroy Wilson - The Best Of Delroy Wilson (Original Twelve) that emphasized the downbeat —with heavy emphasis on the first beat of every measure "The One"and the application of swung 16th notes and syncopation on all basslines, drum patterns, and guitar riffs.
Funk derivatives include the psychedelic funk of Sly Stone and George Clinton ; the avant-funk of groups such as Talking Heads and the Pop Group ; boogiea form of post-disco dance music; electro musica hybrid of electronic music and funk; funk metal e.
Funk samples and breakbeats have been used extensively in hip hop and various forms of electronic Tones On Tail - Lions / Go! musicsuch as house musicand Detroit techno. It is also the main influence of go-goa subgenre associated with funk. The word Funk U - This Beat Will Hit Ya initially referred and still refers to a strong odor. It is originally derived Bob Yarbrough - My Woman Satisfies Latin "fumigare" which means "to smoke" via Old French "fungiere" and, in this sense, it was first documented in English in In "funky" meaning "musty" was first documented, which, in turn, led to a sense of "earthy" that was taken up around in early jazz slang for something "deeply or strongly felt".
In early jam sessionsmusicians would encourage one another to " get down " by telling one another, "Now, put some stank on it!
At least as early asjazz songs carried titles such as Funky. The first example is an unrecorded number by Buddy Boldenremembered as either " Funky Butt " or "Buddy Phantoms - The Smashrooms - Rest In War Blues" with improvised lyrics that were, according to Donald M.
Marquis, either "comical and light" or "crude and downright obscene" but, in one way or another, referring to the sweaty atmosphere at dances where Bolden's band played. According to one source, New Orleans -born drummer Earl Palmer "was the first to use the word 'funky' to explain to other musicians that their music should be made more syncopated and danceable.
This early form of the music set the pattern for later musicians. Like soul, funk is based on dance musicso it has a strong "rhythmic role".
Before funk, most pop music was based on sequences of eighth notes, because the fast tempos made further subdivisions of the beat infeasible. Together, these "interlocking parts" created a "hypnotic" and "danceable feel". New Orleans appropriated the bifurcated structure from the Afro-Cuban mambo and conga in the late s, and made it its own. Funk uses the same richly colored extended chords found in bebop jazz, such as minor chords with added sevenths and elevenths, or dominant seventh chords with altered ninths.
Some examples of chords used in funk are minor eleventh chords e. However, unlike bebop jazz, with its complex, rapid-fire chord changes, funk virtually abandoned chord changes, creating static single chord vamps often Darootz - My Warrior a minor seventh chord and a related dominant seventh chord, such as a minor to D7 with melodo-harmonic movement and a complex, driving rhythmic feel.
Even though some funk songs are mainly one-chord vamps, the rhythm section musicians may embellish this chord by moving it up or down a semitone or a tone to create chromatic passing chords. The chords used in funk songs typically imply a Dorian Dope Soft Intake - Various - Merck Mix 1, Spring 2003 Mixolydian modeas opposed to the major or natural Bodies On Bodies - Vio-Lence - Rough Demo tonalities of most popular music.
Melodic content was derived by mixing these modes with the blues scale. In the s, jazz music drew upon funk to create a new subgenre of jazz-funkwhich can be heard in recordings by Miles Davis Live-EvilOn the Cornerand Herbie Hancock Head Hunters. Funk continues the African musical tradition of improvisation, in that in a funk band, the group would typically "feel" when to change, by "jamming" and "grooving", even in the studio recording stage, which might only be based on the skeleton framework for each song.
Funk creates an intense groove by using strong guitar riffs and basslines played on electric bass. Like Motown recordings, funk songs use basslines as the centerpiece of songs. Indeed, funk has been called the style in which the bassline is most prominent in the songs, [23] with the bass playing the "hook" of the song. Funk basslines emphasize repetitive patterns, locked-in grooves, continuous playing, and slap and popping bass.
Slapping and popping uses a mixture of thumb-slapped low notes also called "thumped" and finger "popped" or plucked high notes, allowing the bass to have a drum-like rhythmic role, which became a distinctive element of funk.
Funk bass has an "earthy, percussive kind of feel", in part due to the use of muted, rhythmic ghost notes [28] also called "dead notes".
Funk drumming creates a groove by emphasizing the drummer's "feel and emotion", which including "occasional tempo fluctuations", the use of swing feel in some songs e. Jim Payne states that funk drumming uses a "wide-open" approach to improvisation around rhythmic ideas from Latin music, ostinatosthat are repeated "with only slight variations", an approach which Funk U - This Beat Will Hit Ya says causes the "mesmerizing" nature of funk.
Some funk bands used two drummers in shows, such as James Brown's band, the JBs. In funk, guitarists often mix playing chords of a short duration nicknamed "stabs" with faster rhythms and riffs. The two guitarists trade off their lines to create a " call-and-responseintertwined pocket. With the "chika" comes a muted sound of strings being hit against the fingerboard; "chank" is a staccato attack done by releasing the chord with the fretting hand after strumming it; and "choking" generally uses all the strings being strummed and heavily muted.
The result of these factors was a rhythm guitar sound that seemed to float somewhere between the low-end thump of the electric bass and the cutting tone of the snare and hi-hatswith a rhythmically melodic feel that fell deep in the pocket. Guitarist Jimmy Nolenlongtime guitarist for James Brown, developed this technique.
The pattern of attack-points is the emphasis, not the pattern of pitches. The guitar is used the way that an African drum, or idiophone would be used. Nolen created a "clean, trebly tone" by using "hollow-body jazz guitars with single-coil P pickups" plugged into a Fender Twin Reverb amp with the mid turned down low and the treble turned up high. Funk guitarists playing rhythm guitar generally avoid distortion effects and amp overdrive to get a clean sound, and given the importance of a crisp, high sound, Fender Stratocasters and Telecasters were widely Funk U - This Beat Will Hit Ya for their cutting treble tone.
Guitarist Eddie Hazel from Funkadelic is notable for his solo improvisation partiularly for the Funk U - This Beat Will Hit Ya on " Maggot Brain " and guitar riffs, the tone of which was shaped by a Maestro Fuzz-Tone FZ-1A pedal.
Ernie Isley was tutored at an early age by Hendrix, when Hendrix was a part of the Isley Brothers backing band and temporarily lived in the Isleys' household. Funk guitarists use the Schlößer, Die Im Monde Liegen - Hermann Prey - Ich Sing Mein Schönstes Lied - Das Wunschkonzert sound effect along with muting the notes to create a percussive sound for their guitar riffs.
A range of keyboard instruments are used in funk. Synthesizers were used in funk both to add to the deep sound of the electric bass, or even to replace the electric bass altogether in some songs. In the s, funk used many of the same vocal styles that were used in African-American music in the s, including singing influences from blues, gospel, jazz and doo-wop. As funk emerged from soul, the vocals in funk share soul's approach; however, funk vocals tend to be "more punctuated, energetic, rhythmically percussive[,] and less embellished" with ornaments, and the vocal lines tend to resemble horn parts and have "pushed" rhythms.
The lyrics in funk music addressed issues faced by the African American community in the United States during the s, which arose due to the move away from an industrial, working-class economy to an information economy, which harmed the Black working class. The Funkadelic song "One Nation Under A Groove" is about the challenges that Blacks overcame during the s civil rights movement, and it includes an exhortation for Blacks in the s to capitalize on the Autonomous Youth - Political Asylum - Valium For The Masses (Demo) "social and political opportunities" that had become available in the s.
The political themes Baby Boy - Various - Absolute Music 11 funk songs and the aiming of the messages to a Black audience echoed the new image of Blacks that was created in Blaxploitation films, which depicted "African-America men and women standing their ground and fighting for what was right". Funk songs included metaphorical language that was understood best by listeners who were "familiar with the black aesthetic and [black] vernacular".
In the s, to get around radio obscenity restrictions, funk artists would use words that sounded like non-allowed words and double entendres to get around these restrictions. Horn section arrangements with groups of brass instruments are used in funk songs. Funk horn sections performed in a "rhythmic percussive Children Of Israel - Horace Andy - Skylarking that mimicked the approach used by funk rhythm guitarists.
The instruments in funk horn sections varied. If there were two brass instruments, it could be trumpet Funk U - This Beat Will Hit Ya tenor sax, trumpet and trombone, or two saxes. Quintets would typically take a pair of brass instruments saxes or trumpetsand add different high and low brass instruments.
With six instruments, a brass section would typically be two pairs of brass instruments plus a trombone and baritone sax holding down the bottom end. In bands or shows Funk U - This Beat Will Hit Ya hiring a horn section is not feasible, a keyboardist can play the horn section parts on a synthesizer with "keyboard brass patches", however, choosing an authentic-sounding synthesizer and brass patch is important. Funk bands in the s adopted Afro-American fashion and style, including "Bell-bottom pants, platform shoes, hoop earring[s], Afros [hairstyles], leather vests, Funk allowed everyday experiences to be expressed to challenge daily struggles and hardships fought by lower and working class communities.
Gerhard Kubik notes that with the exception of New Orleans, early blues lacked complex polyrhythmsand there was a "very specific absence of asymmetric time-line patterns key patterns in virtually all early twentieth century African-American music These do not function in the same way as African time lines. In the late s this changed somewhat when the two-celled time line structure was brought into New Orleans blues. Robert Palmer reports that, in the s, Professor Longhair listened to and played with musicians from the islands and "fell under the spell of Perez Prado 's mambo records.
Longhair's rhythmic approach became a basic template of funk. According to Dr. Longhair's thing had a direct bearing I'd say on a large portion of the funk music that evolved in New Orleans. Alexander Stewart states: "Eventually, musicians from outside of New Orleans began to learn some of the rhythmic practices [of the Crescent City]. Most important of these were James Brown and the drummers and arrangers he employed. In a related development, the underlying rhythms of American popular music underwent a basic, yet generally unacknowledged transition from Funk U - This Beat Will Hit Ya or shuffle feel to even or straight eighth notes.
By the mids, James Brown had developed his signature groove that emphasized the downbeat —with heavy emphasis on the first beat of every measure to etch his distinctive sound, rather than the backbeat that typified African-American music.
Brown's style Andys On My Pillow - Unagi Patrol - Elevate And Pool funk was based on interlocking, contrapuntal parts: syncopated basslines16th beat drum patterns, and syncopated guitar riffs.
On "Ain't it Funky" the tonal structure is barebones. Brown's innovations Funk U - This Beat Will Hit Ya to him and his band becoming the seminal funk act; they also pushed the funk music style further to the forefront with releases such as " Cold Sweat "" Mother Popcorn " and " Get Up I Feel Like Being A Sex Machine "discarding even the twelve-bar blues featured in his earlier music. Instead, Brown's music was overlaid with "catchy, anthemic vocals" based on "extensive vamps" in which he also used his voice as "a percussive instrument with frequent rhythmic grunts and with rhythm-section patterns Ellis credits Clyde Stubblefield 's adoption of New Orleans drumming techniques, as the basis of modern funk: "If, in a studio, you said 'play it funky' that could imply almost anything.
But 'give me a New Orleans beat' — you got exactly what you wanted. And Clyde Stubblefield was just the epitome of this funky drumming. In a interview, Brown offered his reason for switching the rhythm of his music: "I changed from the upbeat to the downbeat Simple as that, really.
Reflecting back to his early days with Brown's band, Parker reported that he had difficulty playing "on the one" during solo performances, since he was used to hearing and playing with the accent on the second beat. Other musical groups picked up on the rhythms and vocal style developed by James Brown and his band, and the funk style began to grow.
Dyke and the Blazersbased in Phoenix, Arizonareleased " Funky Broadway " inperhaps the first record of the soul music era to have "funky" in the title. In Jimmy McGriff released Electric Funkfeaturing his distinctive organ over a blazing horn section. Their debut album East Bay Greasereleasedis considered an important milestone in funk. Throughout the s, TOP had many hits, and the band helped to make funk music a successful genre, with a broader audience.
Notably, these afforded the group and the genre crossover success and greater recognition, yet such success escaped comparatively talented and moderately popular funk band peers. The Temptationswho had previously helped to define the " Motown Sound " — a distinct blend of pop-soul — adopted this new psychedelic sound towards the end of the s as well. A new group of musicians began to further develop the "funk rock" approach.
Innovations were prominently made by George Clintonwith his bands Parliament and Funkadelic. Together, they produced a new kind of funk sound heavily influenced by jazz and psychedelic rock.
The two groups shared members and are often referred to collectively as "Parliament-Funkadelic. Clinton played a principal role in several other bands, including Parletthe Horny Horns, and the Brides of Funkenstein, all part of the P-Funk conglomerate.

glenn criddle | cynical celluloid | dec. 2018
It's that time of year again so let's take a look at the themed holiday awards list that's as awkward as the joke from the value crackers you got from the convenience store. Some are familiar faces and others were neglected due to timing, space or because I wanted to spare you a long-winded rant from a very disappointed critic.
So let's dive into the dishes of delight and the platters of disaster in the Naughty and Nice Awards2018.
The Boozy Mince Pie Award: "Avengers Infinity War"
One of the biggest complaints about the Marvel universe from DC fans is that it isn't dark enough. Infinity Wars runs with a real sense of weight to the proceedings whilst still maintaining a sense of fun and fantasy and it does it well enough that DC apologists should, by now, at least be able to acknowledge that they deserve a much better-extended universe as well. It's the first Avengers film to commit to that Guardians of the Galaxy feel, something smoothed somewhat by Thor: Ragnarok's change in visual style and, for me, it worked better than I could have expected. While Ragnarok didn't quite cut it for me, I'm glad, in retrospect that they did it because it helped Infinity War work better in bringing the two stylistic worlds together. Of course with that cliffhanger ending, who can wait for the next installment of rich, indulgent goodness?
The Rotten Brussels Sprout Award: "Tomb Raider"
Yet another video game movie that works to prove the rule that the film and games media are very difficult to cross between. Ironically, part of the problem is that it recreates the latest Tomb Raider games all too well which sounds like it should be a good thing but it does so with all the ridiculous excess of the game and without the interactivity that made those overblown moments at least tolerable. The story is passable at best, again feeling like the game, but without the act of puzzle solving it's all a bit thin; as a result Tomb Raider all too often feels like those annoying "quick time events" but with even less for you to do. The only blessing here is that you'll not have to worry about doing it again if you're distracted for a second. It looks right, it sounds right, but ultimately, it's all too much like watching your mate play the game.
The Stuffing in the Turkey: "Hereditary"
Overblown by the hype machine and given a rough ride by the audiences, Heredity is a slow-cooking build up to an unusually horrific conclusion. It's a ride through the uncanny valley on a "Silent Hill" version of Willy Wonka's boat ride and while it's lacking the kind of thrills that a mainstream horror film fan requires, it does smolder with atmosphere and delivers some very disturbing events and dark ideas. For the less active viewer it may seem a bit plain but look inside it a bit and there's plenty of shockingly good stuff(ing) going on.
The Bad Santa Award: "Blockers"
Blockers is an astounding clash of schmaltz and crudity that manages to be shockingly coy at the same time as it does butt chugs. It's the typical American Pie format but it's not at all dated and awful ... no, no, no; this time it's girls after the action, that's new, right? From the prissy marketing, I mean Blockers, get it? No, so we'll shove a cockerel before the title and that'll make it clear, through to the very predictable, cliché-ridden story it's all too often cringe-inducing and awful. That said, it has its moments, though they're too few and certainly not enough to elevate this mountain of crass to being more than a mild distraction from the horrors of life that you occasionally laugh at, then pity.
The Food Coma Award: "A Quiet Place"
It runs like a really good meal that overloads you a bit too much. There's a main course of tension, a big side of suspense and a dessert of fear in an unusually, though deliberately quiet film. But it goes just that little bit too far and the ending is something of a disappointment as the filmmakers try to dish out that wafer-thin mint that just results in everything exploding like Monty Pythons Mr. Creosote. After all the goodness, you may as well take a nap for the ending; it'll be for the best.
The Overcooked Turkey Award: "The Predator"
Shane Black's return promised so much and delivered a lot of it, though unfortunately buried under so many tonal issues, cluttered writing and some astonishingly bad choices including an accidentally lobotomized predator dog that is rendered friendly by a bullet to the brain. Throw in a poorly-handled and perplexingly placed child lead with movie autism (child lead in an R-rated movie? Why?) and we end up with a film that looked pretty good going by the trailer but turned out to be one of the most disappointing films of the year. Overdone and unsatisfying.
Well, that's it for another year. Incidentally, there was a near miss for the awards in the form of Eli Roth's "Death Wish" remake. If Bruce Willis could seem like he gave a damn about the roles he's playing then I'd love to see him in many more films but Death Wish, a couple of cracked smiles aside, is another show of seeming apathy from an actor who I know has far more charm and wit then he lets on. Come on Bruce, give us the Christmas present of an enthusiastic performance, we want you back. Hopefully "Glass" will be that film.
Happy Holidays folks, have a safe and joyous time and see you again in the new year.

He's British so forgive the extra U's and the use of the letter S instead of Z. If there's one thing that typifies Glenn's writing it's the 'Video Nasties,' a long list of movies that offended all and sunder during the 1980s in the UK. It's those seemingly offensive fringes of cinema that informed his writing on cinema and the more political area of censorship with a more sympathetic approach to those films that push the limits of taste. But don't worry, he does talk about normal stuff too and isn't likely to go off on a horror movie fuelled rampage.

Air Doll International Trailer (2009)
An International Trailer for Air Doll.
Middle-aged Hideo lives alone with an inflatable doll he calls Nozomi. The doll is his closest companion: he dresses it up, talks to it over dinner, and has sexual intercourse with it. However, unbeknown to Hideo, Nozomi was created with a heart. After Hideo leaves for work each day, Nozomi dresses in her maid's outfit and explores the world outside their apartment with a sense of child-like wonder. She encounters various city residents who metaphorically are as "empty inside" as she is. When Nozomi meets Junichi, who works at a local video store, she falls in love with him and gets a part-time job at the store. She learns about the world through the movies she watches with Junichi, but her happiness with him is interrupted by a dramatic turn of events.

SPARKS WILL fly when We Banjo 3, featuring Galway virtuosos Enda and Fergal Scahill, team up with Dublin roots band I Draw Slow for a concert at An Taibhdhearc.
Despite the name, We Banjo 3 are in fact, a quartet, albeit one featuring three banjo players. The line up is David Howley (banjo/guitar/vocals ), Martin Howley (banjo/mandolin/tenor guitar ), Enda Scahill (banjo/mandolin/tenor guitar ), and Fergal Scahill (fiddle/guitar/bodhrán/percussion ).
American music critic Bill Margeson has called them "terrific...wonderful musicianship of the first order. Best of all, they are different". The band play Irish folk and trad, old-time Americana, ragtime, and bluegrass. Their début album, Roots Of The Banjo Tree, was The Irish Times best trad album for 2012.
Dublin's I Draw Slow - Louise Holden (vocals ), Dave Holden (vocals/guitar ), Colin Derham (banjo ), Adrian Hart (fiddle ), Konrad Liddy (double bass ) - play Appalachian and Irish traditional music. Their most second album, Redhills, was an RTÉ album of the week and enjoyed great sales in Ireland.
Hotpress said the band "sing with a real sense of joy, never letting the virtuosity get in the way of delivering delicious performances".
The show takes place on Thursday February 28 at 8pm. Tickets are €15 from An Taibhdhearc through 091 - 562024 or email [email protected]

I know the thought of boudoir can make some people feel embarrassed or nervous. Believe me, I'm now accustomed to the gasps or giggles I get whenever I share that I'm a boudoir photographer. Yet, I also see the desire in their eyes to learn more or perhaps experience it for themselves.
So if you're currently wondering if you should book a session or perhaps you're getting ready for yours, I hope my list of the 12 most frequently asked questions about boudoir photography will ease any worries you might have and give you an insight on preparing for a boudoir session with me.
Do you share my images?
Your privacy is my utmost priority, especially given the delicate nature of boudoir photography. Your images will never be shared in public unless you give me permission to do so. It's understandable that once you see your amazing pictures, you might want to share them, but the decision is always yours. Whatever your preferences are, my job is to ensure you have a comfortable, trustworthy and awesome experience!
What do I wear?
Although people mostly wear lingerie for boudoir photo shoots, you don't have to wear one! It's all about your personality and how much you want to show. Either way, capturing your natural essence and sensuality is the point of boudoir. So you can rock up with the most daring lingerie or decide a corset, camisole or men's tee is more your speed. Whatever you decide, I'll be here to offer styling advice to ensure I capture you at your best.
How many outfits should I bring?
For my luxury session fee, everyone is allowed to bring up to 4 outfit changes for the allocated photo shoot time. If you'd like to change into more outfits and spend more time, we can chat about this during your pre-session consultation. I'm here to make your experience what you want it to be, so just let me know.
Is hair and makeup included?
Yes! Hair and makeup is most definitely included in all of my luxury boudoir sessions. I ask that you come fresh faced with clean hair on the day to begin your glam session by our pro makeup artist. Please, no spray tans 4-6 weeks before your session as it stains our bedding and carpets, and doesn't photograph well. Have you got a makeup look you'd like for your session? Come along with your ideas and we'll get you looking your best.
I'm not a model! Will you direct me?
Ha! I get this a lot and I always tell my clients not to worry because after a few minutes of directing them, they start to feel and even pose like a model. In my experience, most people simply need a little help in the right direction and I'll be there every step of the way guiding you to flattering poses.
Will you photoshop my images?
I do edit images for light, exposure, colour and facial blemishes or pimples. However, I'm not heavy handed with my retouching and will not alter your body size. The main point of boudoir to me is about loving ourselves and capturing these tender moments that allow our inner beauty shine through. So editing out features that make you who you are, can be damaging. That being said, my job as an expert is to pose you in flattering angles that brings out the best in you.
Can I bring a friend?
This might sound like a good idea to come with a cheerleader, but in reality I've found that when there's an audience, people tend to hold back and not pose as much as they would have without someone they know seeing them in delicate positions. Getting the best out of this experience requires you to let loose, have fun and not worry about entertaining your guests. I promise that you're in great hands and will be made to feel comfortable throughout your session. But if you really want to, you can come along with a friend and they'll wait for you in another room while the photo shoot takes place.
Do you have payment plans?
I offer pre-payment and post-payment plan options. There is an initial session fee required to book your photo shoot date. If you want more time to be able to pay off your product collection before the photo shoot, you can schedule it a few months out, and pay it off in monthly installments! With this pre-payment plan, you'll get 5% off your total order. With the post-payment plan option, you pay in monthly installments after your photo shoot. Let me know if this is something that you want to set up.
What type of print products do you have?
I offer a variety of luxury albums, bespoke print boxes and wall art frames. Whether you'd like to display your beautiful images in your bedroom as wall art or would like a discreet little black book, be assured that you'll have soulful images to look back on forever or even pass down to your grandchildren if you wanted to!
Do you offer digital images?
Yes, most of my packages include digital files and/or a bespoke USB with copies of your images. You'll also get a password protected personal online gallery so that you can easily download the files to your phone or share with your loved ones. During your consultation, we'll go through my package collections and you can make your ideal selection.
Where are you located?
As a small team consisting of me and my MUA, I'm very mobile which means I can travel to photograph you anywhere. Want to shoot at your house? Ok! Want to shoot outdoors? Sure! Interested in booking a luxury hotel or Airbnb? I'll meet you there! What about a travel destination? Sounds great!
However, if you'd like to come to me, I'm based in London, UK and work from either my select studio or stylised apartment depending on the concept of the boudoir session.
Anything else I should be aware of?
Manicures and pedicures are details people often forget, but these are important. Make sure to have your nails freshly painted with no chipping. Also, come with a clean face and hair, take care of your skin to prevent any breakouts, get lots of sleep and drink water! This will reduce dark circles/puffy eyes and reduce bloating. Finally, ensure you eat before your arrival so you have lots of energy to have fun during your session and not get tired, hangry or irritated! Don't stress, this is going to be an awesome experience!

Today i'm sitting about thinking about everything and nothing. My mind is going to places it hasn't for a month and a half. I need to be careful where it's going to take me. living with schizoaffective disorder means i'm constantly waiting for that next delusion, or the next hallucination. i'm constantly analysing my thoughts, trying to figure out if they are paranoid thoughts or not. Right now I think i'm thinking about things that aren't perhaps true. I'm putting two and two together and making something other than four. I've got to recover a little, manage my thoughts. not as easy as it sounds. I think I need to be occupied. i'm working on it.
I've also been making a plan for October. Now, October is a difficult months for me. I was discussing this with my therapist. My therapist has never seen me through an October so he doesn't know what to expect other than what I've told him. it's usually bad. perhaps it's seasonal, but it's more than a really low mood. maybe the low mood sparks up my psychosis. I dunno. Anyway, i'm going to see my therapist more than usual in October, just so we can keep on top of things. I'm going to go away for part of October to give myself a change of scenery and change of pace. mix it up a little. I've also come up with ideas to keep myself occupied. I've got stuff sorted just in case it all goes wrong. by the way, things going wrong in October are horrific. I've been to my worst places in the last ten Octobers. I never look forward to this time of the year. The weird thing is that once I push through October it's all about Christmas. I love Christmas, it's such a nice time of the year. I think nice is a really good word for that time of the year. nice with a smile (if you know what I mean). I'm going to kick October's arse!
I'm not going to write any more than this today. I was going to write something about suicide prevention day but I don't think i have anything interesting enough to write about that, not that anything I write is interesting. I write for me mainly, I just need reminding sometimes.

Mount Lebanon High School
Class Of 1978
Eric T. DeZubay
|Residing In:
|Charlotte, NC USA
|Broadcast Meteorologist
| Tyler, born 1990; Victoria, born 1992;
Emily, born 1994
Hey y'all !!
2008 is a notable year for me. It's my 30th high school anniversary, my 25th anniversary of my career in television news, and my 20th anniversary at WBTV, the CBS affiliate in Charlotte. I graduated as a Meteorologist from Penn State in 1982, failed my flight physical in the fall of 1982 with the hope of being a Navy Pilot, then was forced to regroup and figure out what I could do with my degree.
In 1983 I broke into WTOV in Steubenville, OH and became the weeknight weatherman in 1984. After I decided $4.50/hour (not kidding) wasn't enough for me, I moved on to KNOE in another small town, Monroe, LA. I met my wife, Vickie, there and in 1988 I got my chance to come to Charlotte, NC where we both knew we had found our home. We've been very blessed with my stable career, great kids and good health.
I think about how lucky all of us were to be given the opportunity to go to a school like Mt. Lebanon. Nobody can believe we had a planetarium!!!!!
I'd like to thank all the residents of Mt. Lebanon for paying those insane property taxes for our benefit, whoo hoo!!
I wish I had some but I really don't. People remember me as a goof ball, which is true, but I didn't get involved in groups, clubs and activities, my loss.
I was a tweener... not a varsity athlete (ok, bowling team, but who wants to admit that), not a NERD (hey I respect nerds), and not a smoker/drinker/druggie. Although you gotta admit, those sdd's always seemed to get the babes!
Anyway, I'm rambling - my story is I used to skateboard to school, right down the middle of Cochran Road. The good news: I never got killed, and my fellow students thought it was cool, I got a lot of attention. The bad news: I still didn't get the babes. :(
Eric T.'s Latest Interactions
I dug up this picture from my homeroom I took our senior year in 1978. Pictured from left to right:
Carole Dilling, Neal Davis, Laura Dorman, Ed Demmer.
I am utterly shocked and stunned! Neal and I reconnected on Facebook several years ago and it was such a joy catching up with him again. Neal was in my homeroom, and by default I got to know him better than just about everybody else in high school over those four years. My favorite memory of Neal revolves around music. I have always had a love and passion for music and dreamed about being a drummer throughout my childhood. My parents would not allow me to have a drum set, and it was very frustrating. Neal knew this and would invite me over to his house to play on his drums and boy did I ever! The one album I distinctly remember playing along with was Aerosmith Get Your Wings! In any case, this is just one small anecdotal story illustrating Neil's caring and compassion for others as he reached out to me when he knew I could use a little support. Neal never told me he was battling anything that might have led to this very sad moment. Probably typical for him, as he never struck me as somebody who was a complainer. A piece of my heart and my life has been removed now knowing Neal is no longer a part of it. I pray now that Neal is resting in Eternal peace and looking down on all of us waiting for that day where we will all be together once again! Miss you buddy and see you again one day!
Sallie in high school.
First of all, I would like to thank Debbie for posting this sad announcement. I first learned of Sallie's death in late April, but I could not confirm it since both her parents are deceased and I've lost track of her older brother, Hacke. I work in the journalism community and without being able to confirm this or corroborate it with an obituary, I was very hesitant to announce her passing.
With that out of the way, I wanted share some of my memories of Sallie. Sallie and I were part of the 'Diaper Gang' on Ordale Blvd. I, along with Sallie and Cindy Lammert all grew up together practically from birth. Cindy lived two doors to my right, Sallie, two doors to my left.
I last spoke with Sallie less than a year ago by phone, and she sounded just fine, so this was a terrible shock. Sallie would still call my mom (who is now 87) from time to time to check on her. I could probably stop writing now, because I think that pretty much says it all.
But I can't resist sharing some earlier memories. Sallie was a very rambunctious and athletic child. When we were very young, she would routinely intimidate and (ok I'll say it) beat up my best friend, James Meyer. James is now 6'5" 275 lbs, and wasn't a small boy either. I don't know why she left me alone because I was probably an easier target.
We always had a good relationship, and it was advantageous to be her friend, because they were the coolest family on the street. They were the first family on our street to get a color TV in the late 60s! Then they got the coolest bikes. Who remembers the Schwinn Krates? Hacke got the Orange Krate, while Sallie got the Apple Krate - seriously hot stuff! As we got older they graduated to the Honda 70 (Hacke) and Honda 50 (Sallie) Minibikes. And they kicked the door open for the rest of us kids on Ordale to talk their parents into getting us minibikes, we had a great trail behind our homes. Thank you Mazanowski's!
Next, high school. Sallie was allowed to drive their 197? Orange Catalina to school. For what it's worth, it had a 400 cubic inch engine in it and could burn rubber until the cows came home. I still remember the intensely cold winter mornings and how grateful I was to have a ride. To this day, when I hear Heart's Magic Man come on the radio, I am taken right back to that frozen early morning ride to school. Usually Cindy and Lori Larimer were on board. Lori was always late and got on Sallie's nerves.
Like so many of us, life after high school pulled us apart and it wasn't long before my early career took me far away from home, into the Bayous of Louisiana. And keeping up with friends (especially in the pre-social-media era) was tough. But we never lost touch entirely.
Sallie and I attended both the 10th and 20th Mt. Lebanon '78 reunion together with Cindy. I attended the 30th, but Sallie did not make it.
Sallie will forever be a fixture in my lifetime of memories and experiences. She was among the most independent souls I knew. She was never interested in running with the crowd, and you better have had thick skin because she was going to tell you the truth, no filter.
I admired those qualities of her. Watching and observing her helped shape who I am to this day. And I am luckier and better for it. And now it's all hitting me and I'm crying for the first time since learning of this a month ago....
See the attached picture. Sallie would kill me for using this. I have much better shots of her, but this is our class picture from 6th Grade (Mr. Jordan) at Markham School. I use this because it has Cindy in it (far right), Debbie (lower left side - girl scout uniform), myself (bottom center) and Sallie of course (top center).
We all miss you Sallie and Love you very much!
Rest in Peace. Glory Be To God!
Here is a better picture of Sallie from the early days. No... we were not boyfriend & girlfriend, or going steady as we once said. She had much better taste.

Students, loved ones remember high school AD killed in 4-wheeler crash
A community in west-central Minnesota is mourning the loss of a beloved high school athletic director, father and husband killed in a four-wheeler crash.
Patrick Anderson, 45, died just before 8 p.m. Saturday when the four-wheeler he was driving on Highway 55 in Douglas County and turned to access a side road. The four-wheeler went in front of a sedan going the other direction, and the vehicles collided, according to the State Patrol.
Anderson was pronounced dead at the scene. The State Patrol did not detect alcohol on him, or the driver of the sedan – a 21-year-old from Kensington who suffered serious injuries. Two others in the car had non-life threatening injuries.
'An amazing father, husband, coach, and athletic director'
Anderson, who lived in Hoffman, was a staple at West Central High School in Barrett.
He served as dean of students and athletics director, according to the website, and was a coach for the Knights.
On social media, those who knew him are sharing their memories with the hashtag #KnightStrong. People are also changing their profile photos to a black and red memorial image.

Eating healthy on the road
Your stress level could be measured on the Richter Scale. It's the week before Christmas, so there are a zillion people at the airport. Your flight has been delayed. The kids are crying.
Your stress level could be measured on the Richter Scale. It's the week before Christmas, so there are a zillion people at the airport. Your flight has been delayed. The kids are crying. Your husband is yelling. Starving, you find the nearest food vendor and order a $12 basket of chicken fingers with fries.
Been there? Done that? Eating healthy on the road has long been a struggle for holiday travelers. It's one of the many reasons people tend to gain a couple extra pounds between Thanksgiving and New Year's.
The good news is that consumers are demanding more nutritious options when they fly — and the industry is responding, says Renate DeGeorge, director of culinary services for HMSHost, which operates dining facilities at more than 100 airports worldwide.
In recent years HMSHost has made several changes to their menus, including adding a variety of new salads, offering hummus plates as an appetizer and providing whole-grain bread for sandwiches.
"Most places now offer a variety of healthy options no matter where you stop, so that every traveler can find something they are looking for," DeGeorge wrote in an e-mail.
Here are five ways you can make sure you eat right while flying this holiday season:
Have a plan
You know your departure time, arrival time and the time you'll — hopefully — have during a layover. Use that schedule to plan full meals throughout the day.
"A meal in general is typically the same calories as many snacks," says Charles Platkin, founder and editor of DietDetective.com. But if you eat a real meal, "you're actually going to get decent nutrition… and you're going to feel a higher level of being satiated."
For example, if you leave early in the morning, plan to eat breakfast at home. If you'll be on the plane during lunch, decide what you'll eat in the air before you get to the airport. If dinner will be late because your plane lands after 8 p.m., make sure to eat a bigger protein- and fiber-filled lunch to tide you over.
When mapping out your meals, remember to prepare for the possibility that your timing and/or location could be thrown off by a delayed flight or missed connection. Which leads us to our next hint…
Know your airport
Every year the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine reviews the food served at the busiest airports in the United States. In 2012, the group found that on average 76% of airport restaurants sell at least one low-fat, high-fiber, cholesterol-free vegetarian entrée.
In other words, the excuse "there's nothing healthy to eat at the airport" is no longer valid (sorry).
Airport restaurants in Newark, New Jersey; Las Vegas; or Detroit are most likely to offer a healthy option, according to the PCRM report, while Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport landed at the bottom of the group's ranking for the third year in a row. So if you're passing through D.C. or Atlanta, stock up on some healthy fare beforehand.
Know your airline
Platkin publishes an annual food investigation survey that ranks the snacks and onboard food-service offerings from most major airlines.
"When you're a passenger on an airplane, you don't really have much choice," he says. "You're a captive audience and that creates a higher standard that airlines need to have."
Virgin America and Air Canada each earned four stars on Platkin's site for offering plenty of healthy options and providing calorie information for consumers. Platkin recommends Virgin's snack boxes — like the protein meal with hummus — and Air Canada's Roasted Chicken Wrap with salsa. You can check out his recommendations for other airlines here.
Pick wisely
Most of us have at least a general idea of what's good for our bodies (a fruit plate) and what's not (a king-size chocolate bar). Making smart decisions is half the battle.
The other half is knowing where hidden dangers lie. Platkin cautions consumers to be wary around anything that comes with a sauce, whether it's salad dressing, mayonnaise on a sandwich or caramel dip for your apple slices. Even an extra tablespoon can add unnecessary calories.
Also be on the lookout for packaged snack foods like chips or crackers that are probably high in sodium. "Look for things that are in their natural state," he says.
Most importantly, avoid fried food, DeGeorge says. Anything smothered in batter then dipped in hot oil isn't good for your health, even if it did at one time resemble a vegetable.
Pack for emergencies
You always pack an extra pair of underwear in your carry-on, so why not some extra healthy snacks too?
"We often underestimate the amount of time a trip can take," Platkin writes on his site. "A two-hour flight could mean four or five hours of travel."
Although liquids are restricted, most foods can be taken through security, according to the Transportation Security Administration. Platkin recommends dry cereal like shredded wheat, energy bars or cold cut sandwiches. Raw fruits and vegetables are also easy to pack and carry onboard.

Yen firm as global lockdown worries return, Aussie slips on easing hints
By Tom Westbrook
SINGAPORE (Reuters) – The dollar and yen drew support on Thursday as rising coronavirus cases and scant progress towards a U.S. stimulus deal unsettled investors, while the Australian dollar hit a one-week low after the central bank chief hinted at easing to come.
France has imposed curfews as autumn brings a steep rise in daily infections, prompting worries about a new wave of lockdowns around the world just as hopes for a shot in the arm from U.S. stimulus spending are fading.
The safe-haven yen stood at 105.25 per dollar in early trade, a fraction shy of a two-week high of 105.04 made overnight. The greenback held ground elsewhere, save for against sterling which had jumped on signs of progress in Brexit talks.
The Australian dollar fell half a percent to $0.7129, before paring some losses, after Reserve Bank of Australia Governor Philip Lowe mentioned bond buying and a small rate cut as among options for policy support during recovery.
Lowe said Australia's ten-year yield was among the highest in the developed world and the bank was studying what benefits could come from buying longer-dated debt. He said it was possible to move rates from a record low 0.25% to 0.1%.
"These are pretty explicit policy options that are plausibly going to be considered," said Westpac FX analyst Sean Callow.
"There was enough vibe in there for the market to lean towards (thinking) that they will do something," he said. "Anyone who was thinking about a November cut would be feeling better about it now."
Ten-year bond futures rallied 6.6 ticks to their highest since April after Lowe's (NYSE:LOW) comments and money markets are priced for a November rate cut.
Slightly better-than-expected Australian employment data on Thursday did little to shift easing expectations or lift the currency.
Elsewhere, U.S. stimulus plans appear bogged down.
"Getting something done before the election and executing on that would be difficult," U.S. Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin said on Wednesday, adding that the he and Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi are still "far apart" on their spending priorities.
That has supported the U.S. dollar in the short term by weighing on investors' sentiment and boosting demand for safer assets. Against a basket of currencies the greenback was steady at 93.400 (=USD) and held at $1.1749 against the euro (EUR=).
The pound clung to a 0.5% overnight gain as the European Union and Britain were set to prolong Brexit talks past a mid-October deadline to try bridge stubborn gaps holding up a new trade agreement, according to sources and documents.
"This was seen as a positive for sterling because there was some risk that (British Prime Minister Boris Johnson) might tell his EU counterparts that he was walking away," said National Australia Bank (OTC:NABZY)'s head of FX, Ray Attrill.
Sterling last sat at $1.3018.

Patrick O`Hanlon isn't exactly skilled at being faithful, but still, he's married Viola in an attempt to placate his mother and be with his son.
Viola enjoyed spending time with Francis–she especially liked teaching him nursery rhymes. She had never thought she would find motherhood so rewarding, but Francis was such an easy going and likable child. She felt a distant pang in her heart watching him grow. He had been an accident, but now their life seemed stable and something inside her demanded something more, perhaps a bigger family? Patrick wouldn't be nearly as welcoming of the idea, though.
Despite the hurried nature of their courtship and eventual marriage, Viola and Patrick got along well. They rarely fought and Viola didn't ask questions when he was busy with long hours on shoots. She had known going into this that there was a chance of infidelity. She knew she was fooling herself, that ignorance isn't always bliss, but why force yourself to see something? She was enjoying her family and the idea of normalcy. Patrick indulged her quite a bit. He wasn't a faithful husband, but that didn't mean he didn't care for Viola or Francis. He just had a bit of a problem.
Of course, if Patrick didn't want Viola to find out, perhaps he'd think better than to get involved with a neighbor. Calista was a fan and well, things went a bit farther than intended. It was the first time Patrick really stepped outside of his circle and he wasn't really willing to stoop back down to that level afterward. It was one thing to cheat with co-stars, he could claim chemistry, or the forced nature of on-screen romances. A neighbor who was a fan? Well, there really wasn't much of an explanation there. He'd have to watch his steps carefully.
Especially now that Francis was a child and a clever one at that. He had definitely inherited his father's keen intellect. Hopefully he didn't also inherit his father's amorous ways. He enjoyed both his parents quite a bit and couldn't pick between the two. Hopefully he wouldn't ever have to. For the time being, he was oblivious to his father's many affairs and he thought his home life to be a happy one.
He was a handsome child, and likable, too. He was already popular at a young age.
He even made friends with his neighbor, Emma Davis. She was a few grades higher than him, but they were neighbors, so they got along well. Unfortunately, their friendship wouldn't last long–she'd be going to middle school soon and leaving Francis behind.
Francis rarely made trouble and he was content to read while his mother took a much-needed nap. She seemed to be tired a lot lately.
Note from Mao: Francis turned out adorable! Viola does want another child, but we'll see what ACR dictates. It's a battle of Family VS Romance!
