New hatchery scheduled for summer opening
The Chief Joseph Hatchery is scheduled for completion in May and should be rearing chinook salmon in July.
The $49 million facility near Chief Joseph Dam will, by 2015, raise 2.9 million salmon a year to help replace the fisheries lost after the construction of Grand Coulee and Chief Joseph dams, which halted the upstream migrations of salmon.
It will employ 11 people once it's operational. Currently 66 people are working at the site.
The project includes two acclimation ponds at Riverside and Omak, which will allow the young fish to get used to the river water before they are released.
Also included in the project are four houses for hatchery staff, a
domestic water supply, wastewater treatment, RV pads with power supply for additional staff.
The construction cost is paid with electric ratepayer money from the Bonneville Power Administration through the Colville Tribes "Fish Accords." The hatchery is fourth of four such hatcheries authorized by Congress, according to the tribal Fish and Wildlife Department.
A department press released said the project aims to increase the abundance, productivity, distribution, and diversity of natural spawning populations of spring/summer/fall Chinook salmon in the Okanogan and Columbia Rivers, and to help provide hatchery fish for tribal ceremonies and subsistence needs and increase recreational fishing opportunities.

Mr. Baconpants Presents Bacon Bash

Saturday, September 17, 2011 from 12:00 PM to 3:00 PM (EDT)
Event Details
Mr. Baconpants Presents Bacon Bash
A day to celebrate one of Pittsburgh's favorite foods, BACON!
Pittsburgh's only bacon event, Bacon Bash, will take place at the Harris Grill in Shadyside on Saturday, September 17 from 12 pm to 3 pm. At last year's Bacon Bash more than 185 people came to enjoy bacon. Event organizers Jason Mosley (better known as Mr. Baconpants) and the Harris Grill plan to take what they did last year and kick it up a notch.
"With the Bacon Crisis upon us, we are going to need this day of celebration." said Mosley.
This year's Bacon Bash will be right in the middle of the Bacon Crisis. With the price of bacon reaching upwards to $7.00 a pound event planners said they were lucky to get the amount of support they did from sponsors.
"When I made it known that I needed bacon, I was surprised how many bacon purveyors stepped up to show support," said Mosley.
Wrights Brand Bacon, Tender Belly, Sugardale and more are supplying the bacon for this years event. Not to be outdone, Miller Light will be sponsoring tee shirts for all bacon lovers in attendance.
Several bacon appetizers and small plates will be served at Bacon Bash. An exciting addition to this year's Bash will be Maple Bacon Gelato from Bite Bistro in Bellevue, PA. As is tradition, the event also will feature the Bacon Eating Contest for a chance to win fabulous bacon prizes.
Tickets are $35 and go on sale online at MrBaconpants.com July 18, 2011. Bacon Bash is Pittsburgh's only bacon enthusiast celebration and tickets are limited, so be sure to claim yours today.

Blackhawks give Teravainen a look as Kane recoversby Brian Hedger / Chicago Blackhawks
|Chase Agnello-Dean / Chicago Blackhawks
CHICAGO -- The much-anticipated arrival of Teuvo Teravainen dominated a busy morning skate for the Chicago Blackhawks on Friday at United Center.
The 19-year old Finnish forward, Chicago's top prospect, officially joined his new team on the ice for drills but won't play Friday night against the Carolina Hurricanes. Instead, the Blackhawks want to give Teravainen some time to get acclimated to his new surroundings.
They also want to take as much pressure off his shoulders as possible, even as fans look to the young Finn to ease the sting of losing right wing Patrick Kane to a lower-body injury for the rest of the regular season.
"The thing we just want to be cautious about is he's a 19-year-old kid," Blackhawks general manager Stan Bowman said. "He's not coming in here to carry the team. We certainly have high hopes for him in the future, but this is more just an experience for Teuvo to come in and see what the NHL is all about."
It's also a chance for the Blackhawks to further assess Teravainen, who had a nice season for Jokerit in the Finnish Liiga and led Finland to the gold medal in the 2014 IIHF World Junior Championships. After playing left wing for Jokerit a year ago, Teravainen started this season playing center in the Blackhawks' training camp.
He continued the center experiment with Jokerit and finished with 44 points in 49 games (nine goals and 35 assists). That ranked seventh in the Liiga in points and second in assists.
Chicago has been searching for a center to play on the second line with Kane and the hope is Teravainen will eventually be the answer. If he plays 10 games during the regular season or Stanley Cup Playoffs, the first year of Teravainen's three-year entry-level contract will be burned, but Bowman said that isn't a factor in how much he'll play.
His performance down the stretch will ultimately dictate his ice time, and reports about his improved play in Finland claim Teravainen can handle a center's responsibilities. He has improved his strength on the puck, focused on playing better defensively and added strength to his 5-foot-11, 169-pound frame, something the Blackhawks hoped he would do when they selected him with the 18th pick in the 2012 NHL Draft.
Now it's nearly time to see if all that hard work will pay off. Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville said he'll probably start Teravainen at center, but the young prospect is happy to contribute any way he can.
"I can bring something," Teravainen said. "I try to play with my strengths and maybe some offense. I hope I can help. Of course, there are big expectations and pressure, but I don't think of those too much. I think everything I do here is a bonus. I'm just trying to have fun."
It's just that he'll be doing it for the defending Stanley Cup champions, who did everything they could to downplay their expectations of him this season. They're not denying Teravainen's high potential and skill, but the Blackhawks are being careful not to heap too much pressure on him too soon.
"We've been really pleased with his progress since we drafted him," Bowman said. "Looking at his season this year, he showed that he could be a dominant player in the top league in Finland and he's going to come in here and just be a piece of the puzzle. He's just going to fit in like the other guys on the team … we're trying to be aware that there's a lot of excitement around him, and understandably so, but he's just another player on our team and it's a team sport. So we're trying to be cautious with that."
They're being cautious with Kane, as well.
Rather than rushing him back to get in a game before the start of the playoffs, Bowman pronounced Kane out for the remaining 12 games of the regular season. He also said Kane should be ready to go for the start of the playoffs.
Nobody in the Blackhawks locker room is worried about Kane being too rusty when he returns.
"If there's a guy who can turn it on and off, it's definitely [Kane]," forward Kris Versteeg said. "Out of nowhere, you can see it throughout a game. You might not notice him for one or two shifts and all of a sudden he's got the puck for an entire shift. He really knows how to turn it on and rise to the occasion when he needs to, so I think these three weeks will help him get stronger and rested."
Bowman did his best to quell any concerns explaining what he meant when he initially described Kane's injury as "nothing too serious."
"I think what I meant with 'nothing too serious' … usually when a guy has an injury that requires surgical intervention, that's something that is going to set him back a little bit longer," Bowman said. "This is not that kind of an injury, so we're not going to get caught up in what the diagnosis is. But he'll be out the same timeframe as [originally stated]. Nothing's changed and we're going to focus on getting him ready for the playoffs."
In the meantime, the Blackhawks will focus on collecting as many points as possible in the remainder of the regular season. They're one point ahead of the third-place Colorado Avalanche in the Central Division going into action Friday night and hope to secure home ice for at least the quarterfinal round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
They'll need to compensate for Kane's absence, but that task won't fall on one or two people.
"I think when we play as a team, like we did Wednesday night [against the St. Louis Blues], I think you saw we really played our best hockey," Bowman said. "We had all of our lines going. That's sort of the hallmark of our team, when we can get everybody involved, all the defensemen, all 12 forwards. It's not individual players [or] personnel. It's about the team. I think that's what we've been stressing, trying to get back to the team strength … even more so when you lose one of your top players. You have to rely on the balance, not just one player to replace Patrick."

Are SharkBite plumbing connectors as reliable as soldered connectors?
3Using a propane torch is more fun though. – ManiacZX Aug 11 '10 at 19:48
1See also diy.stackexchange.com/questions/207/…. – Jeremy McGee Aug 12 '10 at 5:59
So far they seem to be just as reliable, although given that they've only been on the market for a few years they don't have the same history as soldered connections. Here in the UK almost all new-build houses use push-fit connectors for concealed work as it's much quicker and easier.
You most likely do need to take extra care that the tube is perfectly round for an inch or so at the end, and that there's no bits of swarf, paint or other dirt there. Solder is good at filling in little gaps which push-fit connectors won't seal. On the other hand it's very easy to not heat a solder joint up enough to melt the solder properly, especially in confined spaces.
Obviously, make sure you push them in firmly.
Finally you don't really want to use them for exposed pipes, soldered joints are much neater.
I've not used Shark Bite, but I have used other push fit connectors and as long as you make sure that you push the pipes firmly into the connectors they do the job they're intended for.
I haven't had any leaks or other problems with them.
Another advantage is that you can rotate the pipes and fittings once they're in place so if you have a tight or awkward space to work in you're less restricted.
If you're not confident about your soldering skills then using compression or push fit connectors is probably a better idea as you can sort them out after the water's turned back on without necessarily having to drain the system again.
I've had a few SharkBite connectors installed for a couple years without any leaks. They are pricey but save a lot of time when trying to make repairs or otherwise plumb in tight spaces. In fact, I've seen more leaks from improper solders that then have to be re-soldered than I have from SharkBites, primarily because tight spaces can inhibit applying the torch/flame correctly.
The previous cheapy shut off valve to my toilet had seized. There was no way I could solder a new pipe because whoever installed the pipe didn't leave much room. I replaced it with a shark bite 4 years ago and it has not yet leaked. What I don't know is will be ok in 10 years. Like you car rubber seals dry up and there is a rubber o-ring that provides the tight seal. You would think that whoever designed these fittings would provide a wider rubber seal and perhaps a longer sleeve for the pipe to fit in....right now the sleeve is less than 1"....imagine if it was say 1.5"and there was more rubber seal for it to grip on.
That being said, my father redid all the plumbing in his house back in 1972.....when I sold the house after he died not one pipe was leaking....all the pipes were solder and amazingly he had installed some compression shut off valves which did not leak or show signs of fatigue. They've be known to fail. I just don't know how the shark bit value will fare out.
The way I look at it is if I have to replace it every 5 years even at $15 its cheaper than a plumber.....but I am also concerned about the plastic collar they use....plastic as we all know gets brittle over time.....if it ever cracked on its own you'd have one hell of a leak. I guess we are all going to have to wait say 10 years to see what the failure rate is on these push on fittings. There is no way I would trust them in a concealed area....image the mess to cut through drywall to fix a leak.
It shouldn't be a rubber seal. Probably nylon, silicon, or some other modern material. – Steve Wellens Jan 12 at 5:21
I think any connection will eventually fail. Shark Bite fittings have been slowly taking over in my 35 year old plumbing system and working just fine on hot and cold water. Expensive, simple, fast and you can put them on with water running out the end. Try that with a soldered joint. Time will tell.

|Tennessee School Board Appreciation Week
Appreciation Videos from our schools:
West Elementary Appreciates Hamblen County's School Board
525 Brick Church Park Drive ? Nashville, TN 37207 ? Telephone (615) 815-3900 ? (800) 448-6465 ? Fax (615) 815-3911
Assisting school boards in effectively governing school districts
2010 School Board Appreciation Week set Jan. 24-30
The Tennessee School Boards Association (TSBA), school systems, and communities across the state will recognize the work of boards of education Jan. 24-30 during School Board Appreciation Week.
Each year, "School Board Appreciation Week" is proclaimed by the governor and celebrated statewide to honor the school board members who govern our schools and make a difference in the lives of our children and communities. The theme for School Board Appreciation Week 2010 is "Count Me In!" Public Education is everyone's business, and it holds the key to the success of every community. "Count Me In!" represents the need and desire to have all stakeholders step up and be counted as supporters of public education and the school boards entrusted to guide its course.
School board members devote their time and efforts to ensure that our students receive a first-class education and an opportunity for future success in life. School Board Appreciation Week is a chance for the community to thank these individuals for their commitment to our children and their education.
"Simply put, public education is the key to everything we do as a community, state and nation," said 2010 TSBA President Dan Schlafer, a member of the Cumberland County Board of Education. "It is the foundation of our economy and the driving force behind our global competitiveness. The first question any company or corporation asks when considering their location or relocation is, 'What's the skinny on your local school system?' Without public education, any community, state or nation is immediately relegated to third world status. It is my hope that citizens across our state take this opportunity to get involved and be counted as supporters of the work being performed by their local boards of education. Working together, we can continue to improve the education and opportunities we are providing for our next generation."
Attached you will find the 2010 proclamation from Governor Phil Bredesen and a school board fact sheet. We hope you will take this opportunity to highlight the work of your local board of education during this special week.
School Board Week in Tennessee is part of National School Board Recognition Month, which highlights school board members across the nation throughout the month of January.
The Tennessee School Boards Association, a statewide, nonprofit organization, is a federation of the state's local school boards. The mission of the Tennessee School Boards Association is to assist school boards in effectively governing school districts. Through the years, TSBA has helped school boards and their members reach their highest potential through association programs, meetings and services. TSBA also provides school board members a collective voice in matters of legislation and public education concerns. To learn more about TSBA, visit our website at www.tsba.net.

Recently, I was offered a sample of a new chocolate bar.
It's called Good & Evil, and it's a bar with a serious pedigree: it was designed by big names such as Eric Ripert, Tony Bourdain and Christopher Curtin of Éclat Chocolate. As I was informed, the bar is "made from extremely rare Peruvian cacao beans and studded with nibs, will make its official debut at the New York Chocolate Show on Friday, November 9."
Oh, and did I mention...it's $18 per bar?
Yes. You heard me. This bar of chocolate is $18 at eclatchocolate.com.
Would I like a sample? Heck yes. I want to know what an $18 chocolate bar tastes like!
But while I waited for the bar to arrive, I had a good few days to fantasize about a world in which chocolate bars are $18. What else would happen in such a world, I wondered? Well, I was pretty sure that in this brave new world...
Or maybe...just maybe...a world in which there are $18 bars of chocolate is an opportunity to make the most motherfluffin' amazing s'more of your life.
Which is exactly what I did when I received the sample. Since this was a fancy s'more, I decided to use some of my leftover Walkers shortbread. A chocolate like this was worthy of something more delicious and fancier than a commercial graham cracker, in my opinion. But the marshmallows...I just used regular jet-puffed ones. Don't judge me.
You guys. It is possible that this was the best s'more ever made in the history of the world. It was buttery and expensive and sweet, all at once. The cheap marshmallows made it a sort of "silver spoon and paper plate" type of experience.
I don't think I can ever eat a "regular" s'more ever again. Gosh, is this like flying first class--you can never go back to coach, comfortably?
Oh, I'm kidding. The chocolate is very, very good--but I'll be honest, I don't know if I ever would have tried it if it hadn't been offered. But I sure enjoyed it once they did offer it to me.
It was a rather nice way to taste the "sweet life". Want a taste? It's available for $18 on eclatchocolate.com if you are curious.

1 Queen Marie Antoinette
As queen of France, Marie Antoinette became a baton of appearance – but as a 14-year-old Austrian archduchess she committed a appearance faux pas on the day she affiliated the approaching King Louis XVI in the aristocratic abbey at the Palace of Versailles in 1770.
Strict agreement absolute bells accoutrements for the helpmate of a French beneficiary to the throne: a cloth-of-silver dress. Unfortunately, the bride's growing anatomy was not taken into annual aback the dress was advised and so the consistent bodice was too small, acceptation that Marie Antoinette's associates were clumsy to adhere the aback of the gown. According to Elizabeth Seymour Percy, Amazon of Northumberland, there was "quite a ample band of lacing and about-face absolutely visible, which had a bad aftereffect amid two broader stripes of chunk [the closing of which were a allowance from Marie Antoinette's mother, Empress Maria Theresa of the Habsburg Empire]."
In accession to the billowing dress, Marie Antoinette's approaching beautician Léonard Autié advised the bride's strawberry-blonde beard "badly arranged" for the occasion. The comment, accounting in his journal, may accept reflected his animosity with the beautician Sieur Larsenneur, who styled Marie Antoinette's beard on the day of her bells in a low, delicate upsweep adorned with adorning gems. Léonard autonomous for added busy hairstyles for Marie Antoinette aback he afterwards became her hairdresser.
Despite the appearance faux pas on her bells day, queen Marie Antoinette adherent abundant efforts to her accessible image. Her milliner (hatter) Rose Bertin and beautician Léonard became accepted as the queen's 'Ministers of Fashion', ambience precedents for approaching celebrity stylists. But Marie Antoinette's acceptability for absurdity (as able-bodied as her Austrian origins) contributed to her unpopularity. The French Revolution bankrupt out in 1789; the French absolution was baffled in 1792; and Marie Antoinette was accomplished by decollate in 1793, a few months afterwards her husband.
2 Queen Victoria
When Queen Victoria's mother, Angel Victoire of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld, affiliated King George III's fourth son – Prince Edward, Battle of Kent and Strathearn – in 1818, she was dressed in an busy cloth-of-gold gown. This followed the attitude of Hanoverian brides, who wore cloister dress or aristocratic apparel on their bells day. And aback Queen Victoria's accessory Angel Charlotte affiliated the approaching Leopold I of Belgium on 2 May 1816, the helpmate wore a bright ensemble of "silver absolutist on net, over a argent tissue slip, abstract at the basal with argent absolutist in shells and flowers". The dress, which is the ancient British aristocratic bells clothes that survives to this day, additionally boasted "manteaux [a apart sleeveless blind or shawl]… of argent tissue lined with white satin, with a bound of adornment to acknowledgment that on the dress."
But in 1840, for her bells to Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha in St James's Palace, the adolescent Queen Victoria ancient from Hanoverian cloister attitude by cutting a analogously simple bells dress of white cottony glassy akin with applique and orange blossoms. Victoria declared her dress and jewels in her journal: "I wore a white glassy dress, with a abysmal camp of Honiton lace, an apery of an old design. My jewels were my Turkish architecture chaplet & earrings & baby Albert's admirable azure brooch."
Technically, Queen Victoria was not the aboriginal aristocratic helpmate to opt for white – Mary, Queen of Scots wore white on her aboriginal bells day (when she affiliated the approaching King Francois II of France, in 1558). Queen Victoria's best of bells dress, however, captured the accepted acuteness and aggressive added brides to accept white bells dresses – a trend that continues today.
In her best of dress, Victoria was agog to advance British industry and accomplishment during a aeon aback English cottony and lace-making were experiencing a aeon of decline. The cottony glassy was alloyed in Spitalfields, East London, and the applique came from Honiton and Beer in Devon. Victoria admired her bells applique and wore it on important occasions for the blow of her reign, including her Architecture Jubilee in 1897.
While Queen Victoria's dress set a new trend, Victoria herself capital to be a accepted helpmate by demography the aforementioned vows as added women of her time. It was asked whether she capital to vow to obey Prince Albert and to this Victoria answered yes, because she capital to be affiliated as a a woman, not as queen.
Modern aristocratic brides abide to chase Victoria in showcasing British industry in their best of bells accoutrements – including Catherine Middleton, who wore a dress advised by Sarah Burton for the British appearance abode Alexander McQueen aback she affiliated Prince William on 29 April 2011. A account appear by Buckingham Palace anon afterwards the bells read: "Miss Middleton chose British cast Alexander McQueen for the adorableness of its adroitness and its account for acceptable ability and the abstruse architecture of clothing." The applique appliqué for the bodice and brim was hand-made by the Aristocratic School of Needlework, based at Hampton Cloister Palace, and the applique architecture was hand-engineered application the Carrickmacross lace-making technique, which originated in Ireland in the 1820s.
3 Queen Maud of Norway
When Angel Maud of Wales (granddaughter of Queen Victoria and the youngest babe of the approaching King Edward VII) affiliated Prince Charles of Denmark (later King Haakon VII of Norway) on 22 July 1896, she chose a analogously simple bells dress that did not absorb lace. A account women's annual of the time explained to readers: "The bells gown, fabricated in Spitalfields, is of authentic white English satin, with a continued alternation cut in one with the skirt, and akin in one bend with a abounding bow of mousseline de soie and orange blossoms; a ruche of chiffon and flowers borders the brim hem at the advanced and sides." But Maud accustomed the attitude for Honiton applique (set by Queen Victoria) by cutting her mother's Honiton applique bells veil. As aristocratic biographer Theo Aronson (1929–2003) afterwards observed: "Princess Maud, acknowledgment to her mother's certain taste, was appreciably bigger dressed than best aristocratic brides."
Maud's accouterment [the clothes, linen and added accouterments calm by a helpmate for her marriage] reflected her claimed interests, decidedly her adulation of cycling, benumbed and skiing (which she took up in Norway). Hertrousseau included benumbed habits and hats, and, according to a appearance annual of the time, "A cycling-gown, which is the actual archetypal of able smartness, is of tan t lined with a ablaze cottony serge and faced with advertisement linen collar and lapels". The accouterment additionally included "for yachting, a airy little dejected serge frock".
Maud was not the alone granddaughter of Queen Victoria who autonomous to absolute the bulk of applique in her bells ensemble. Aback Angel Marie of Edinburgh affiliated the approaching Ferdinand I of Romania in 1893, she eschewed the acceptable Honiton applique blind beat by British aristocratic brides and chose instead a tulle blind to accompany a bells dress alleged by her mother. Afterwards in life, as queen of Romania, Marie developed a different faculty of style, accumulation adventurous interpretations of acceptable folk costumes.
The artlessness of Maud's clothes has been an afflatus for consecutive aristocratic brides. Aback Mette-Marit Tjessem Høiby, the accepted acme angel of Norway, affiliated Acme Prince Haakon in 2001, she wore a cottony ache dress with continued sleeves, a corset waist and a two-metre train. The designer, Ove Harder Finseth, is said to accept been afflicted by Maud's bells dress.
4 Angel Irina of Russia
Imperial Russian bells dresses commonly beat by admirable duchesses were so abundant that the helpmate generally begin it difficult to move at the ceremony. Tsar Nicholas II's accessory Admirable Amazon Marie Pavlovna recalled cutting "a clothes of argent t so blubbery that it seemed to be fabricated of cardboard" aback she affiliated Prince Wilhelm of Sweden in 1908.
When Nicholas's niece Angel Irina Alexandrovna affiliated Prince Felix Yusupov – one of the wealthiest men in Russia – at the Anichkov Palace in 1914, she absitively not to abrasion a cloister dress and instead fabricated her own best of bells attire. Felix wrote in his memoirs: "Irina's bells dress was magnificent; it was of white glassy abstract in silver, with a continued train." Irina's veil, captivated in abode by a adornment of bedrock clear and diamonds, already belonged to Marie Antoinette. The automated appearance of Irina's bells dress afflicted approaching bells dresses appropriate into the 1920s.
In accession to the another dress, the bells of Irina and Felix featured an anarchistic bells allowance as well. Aback Tsar Nicholas II (along with his wife, Empress Alexandra) asked Felix what he would like as a bells present, the benedict requested the advantage of sitting in the Imperial box at the theatre. According to Felix, "Nicholas II blithely agreed". But the affable affinity amid Felix and the Tsarwas not to last. It came to an brusque end aback Felix (along with the Tsar's accessory Admirable Battle Dmitri Pavlovich) organised the annihilation of Empress Alexandra's abstruse and acceptance healer Rasputin at the Yusupov Palace (also accepted as the Moika Palace) in 1916 because they were anxious about Rasputin's access over the Imperial family.
Felix and Irina survived the Russian Revolution that followed and fled to the Crimea. The brace eventually acclimatized in Paris, active there from 1920 until their deaths (Felix died in 1967 and Irina followed in 1970).
5 Mary, Angel Aristocratic and Countess of Harewood
Princess Mary, the alone babe of King George V and Queen Mary, affiliated Henry Lascelles, 6th Earl of Harewood, at Westminster Abbey in 1922. The princess's accommodation to ally an Englishman rather than a adopted prince was acutely popular. Mary's brother Albert (the approaching King George VI) wrote to their earlier brother David (the approaching King Edward VIII): "Mary's bells is causing a abundant accord of assignment to abounding bodies & as far as I can accomplish out the 28th is activity to be a day of civic amusement in every believable and unconceivable manner… In actuality it is now no best Mary's wedding, but (this from the paper) it is the 'Abbey Wedding' or the 'Royal Wedding' or the 'National Wedding' or alike 'The People's Wedding' (I accept heard it called) 'of our admired princess.'"
Princess Mary's bells dress architecture was appear to the press, acceptance the accessible to appraise in detail the abstracts and appearance called by the princess. While antecedent aristocratic brides had honoured England and sometimes Wales, Scotland and Ireland in their bells dress motifs, Mary was the aboriginal aristocratic helpmate to pay accolade to the British Empire and Dominions: the adornment of her dress reflected the contributions of these regions to the Allied account during the Aboriginal Apple War. The Associated Columnist reported: "Princess Mary's bells clothes is to be of t of argent of arresting design. The actual was bought by the Queen from India some years ago and is declared as a celebration of built-in manufacturing." The hand-woven ivory cottony alternation sourced from Es was abstract with floral syms from the Empire and Dominions including the maple from Canada, the lotus from India, the arrangement from Australia and the bracken from New Zealand.
When Meghan Markle affiliated Prince Harry in May 2018, she honoured the Commonwealth with the floral motifs abstract on her blind – these included the bunchberry from Canada, the kowhai from New Zealand, and, like Angel Mary, the lotus from India and the arrangement from Australia.
6 Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother
Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon (better accepted as Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother) was one of the bridesmaids at the bells of Angel Mary, and, like her sister-in-law, she too chose to add claimed touches to her bells clothes aback she affiliated the Battle of York (the approaching King George VI) in 1923 at Westminster Abbey.
Elizabeth's short-sleeved ivory chiffon moire (silk) bells dress reflected the appearance trends of the aboriginal 1920s, artful the alone waist and abounding contour popularised by the French appearance artist Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel. The dress boasted two trains – one absorbed at the hips; the added at the shoulders. The veil, loaned to the helpmate by her approaching mother-in-law, Queen Mary, was fabricated of Flanders lace. Elizabeth was admiring with her bells ensemble, acquainted in her account that "it looked lovely."
Three added audible characteristics of Elizabeth's bells clothes admiring accepted attention. First, the dress included a band of Brussels Applique beat by one of the bride's Scottish ancestors at a brawl for Charles Edward Stuart, the Bonnie Prince Charlie (who in 1745 had challenged the groom's ancestor, King George II, for the British throne). Elizabeth additionally congenital bounce blooming tulle into the accents on her own dress and those of her bridesmaids, bidding a announcer of the time to observe: "In the accent the helpmate has defied all old superstitions about the unluckiness of green." Elizabeth's dress additionally congenital a argent and rose thistle, emphasising the bride's Scottish ancestry as the babe of the Earl and Countess of Strathmore.
While Elizabeth's bells clothes was audibly 1920s in style, with her boutonniere she began an important aristocratic bells attitude that continues to the present day. In honour of her ancient brother Fergus, who had been dead at the action of Loos during the Aboriginal Apple War, Elizabeth placed her boutonniere on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Westminster Abbey. This attitude is still empiric by 21st-century aristocratic brides including Catherine Middleton and Meghan Markle.
7 Wallis Simpson, Amazon of Windsor
The bells of the battle of Windsor (the above King Edward VIII) to Wallis Simpson, a twice-divorced American, at the Château de Candéin France in 1937, was one of the best arguable aristocratic weddings of the 20th-century. The aristocratic ancestors boycotted the commemoration and as the woman broadly abhorrent for the Abdication Crisis of 1936, Simpson was beneath no obligation to chase aristocratic attitude in her best of bells attire. There was common belief about what Wallis would abrasion on the day.
TIME Magazine reported: "She wore a dress that best U. S. administration food were anon to feature: bendable dejected ache with a tight, oned bodice, a halo-shaped hat of the aforementioned color, shoes and gloves to match. At her throat was a amazing diamond-&-sapphire brooch. Mrs. Warfield agitated a adoration book, had no boutonniere but wore a ample lavender acclaim at her waist." The colour of the dress akin the bride's eyes and became accepted as 'Wallis Blue', bidding accepted appeal for dresses in this colour.
The amazon of Windsor was acquainted of the actual and cultural acceptation of her bells dress – in 1950, she donated the dress to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Due to a birthmark in the dye, the dress has back achromatic to a chrism colour, authoritative it attending like a added accepted bells dress of the time. Afterwards her afterlife in 1986, the duchess's jewellery was auctioned for charity.
8 Sarah Ferguson, Amazon of York
Sarah Ferguson affiliated Queen Elizabeth II's additional son, Prince Andrew, Battle of York, at Westminster Abbey in 1986. In the architecture of her bells gown, Ferguson was aggressive by Norman Hartnell's abundantly abstract architecture for the approaching Queen Elizabeth II's bells dress in 1947. In adverse to her mother-in-law, however, the amazon chose Italian cottony because it was bigger able to abutment the adornment than English silk. She additionally personalised the embroidery, allotment a bee to represent her own ancestors acme and anchors to represent Andrew's argosy career, in accession to English roses.
The amazon declared her bells dress in her memoirs: "I was amid into my ivory bells dress, an admirable conception I'd absent twenty-six pounds to fit into. Lindka [Cierach] was a genius; I knew she could accomplish the best adulatory clothes ever, and she had. It was amazingly boned, like a corset. We'd called amazon glassy because it was the creamiest actual in the world. It never creases. It is as bland as bottle and hangs beautifully, afterwards a distinct bulge; it fabricated my bargain amount attending alike better." The dress accepted cumbersome, however, aback the new amazon curtsied to the queen afterwards the commemoration and she appeared to about bead to the floor.
The Battle and Amazon of York afar in 1992 and afar in 1996. Their babe Angel Eugenie will ally Jack Brooksbank at St George's Chapel, Windsor, on 12 October 2018. Whether she will absorb motifs from her mother's bells dress into her own conjugal ensemble charcoal to be seen.

First, no man is a feminist who threatens a woman. Period. The fact that you found it reasonable to undermine and demean Tamura's formidable mental prowess via text message, not only reflects an unhealthy sense of personal and professional boundaries on your part, but also a penchant for intellectual violence. And since you can't model healthy communication practices in public, we don't trust that you are prone to exercise them in private either. Do you always call women who disagree with you "idiots," "mental midgets," and "hacks"? Intellectual and discursive bullying is always egregious, but it is especially egregious for a Black man to do this to a Black woman, especially when that Black man claims to be advocating the cause of Black women.
The ability to engage in civil discourse, even when our opinions are diametrically opposed is one of the hallmarks of the academic enterprise. Because you are a tenured professor, we believe you know this. Rather than being merely a function of forgivable ignorance, your campaign of calumny against Dr. Lomax is calculated, intentional, troubling, and disgusting. Moreover, the notion that you can in any way participate in laying out a sexually revolutionary agenda for young Black feminists when your private and professional choices employ attacks on women who want to engage in dialogue is beyond our comprehension.
- Acknowledge publicly that you messed up- It would be really valuable for you to acknowledge publicly that threats and tactics of intimidation are not parts of feminist praxis.
- Apologize- It's clear that you owe Dr. Lomax an apology for both the private messages you sent to her and the public attacks on her scholarship on your Facebook page.
- Amend- this includes but isn't limited to taking down the negative Facebook comments and educating yourself about why they were in fact ableist and inapropriate.
- Action- Part of being accountable is working towards a new mode of engaging in the future. How will you behave differently should another black woman disagree with your scholarship publicly? What will you do to ensure that when other black male scholars act in a similar way that your lessons learned from this experience will be accessible for the transformation of that instance?
We will not be intellectually bullied into submission. We have officially given new meaning to the term "come correct," and we suggest, brother, that you get it together. And here is one of our best examples of rescripting to date…

It's taken me awhile to read the story I wrote in 2007 for MORE magazine on being tested for BRCA mutations. I find it difficult to go back and read anything I've written about cancer. It's emotional, painful. Once a part of the journey is in the past I'd like to keep it there. But that's not my destiny, I guess. So I went back and read the piece and found I still stand by it, I still like it and I think it still has value, especially now, although at the time I didn't know or understand about gene patenting. I read a blog on "The Broad Side" in which the writer said:
I've read pieces that call into question the science, hope that Jolie becomes a voice for breaking up the monopoly on the BRCA test itself and far more who fawn over Jolie's courage. Yet, rare in the pages and pixels spilled over Jolie's decision is any real framing of what it is to sit where she sat and make that decision.
I can't really say whether that's true-I haven't read all the media. But if it is, for the record, I thought I'd reprint my piece here and you can see exactly what it feels like to go through testing. I'm not sure if, technically, I'm allowed to reprint a whole piece, even my own. But I hereby give myself permission because, heck, it's MY PIECE (do I sound the like granddaughter, daughter and sister of a bunch of lawyers?). And then, really, I've got to sign off for awhile:
Put to the Test: The Breast Cancer Gene
A woman with breast cancer undergoes genetic testing to find out whether she carries a breast cancer gene
Was My Breast Cancer Just a Fluke?
The thing I remember most about being told I had breast cancer was how the colors in my home office — where I'd been tidying up for the day, preparing to go to a movie with my husband — went flat. Isn't that odd, I thought, looking down at my newly alien torso. My red shirt has turned gray. My red shirt has turned gray, and I might die.
That spectrum shift was the first sign that I'd passed through an invisible membrane into the parallel universe of the ill. I turned to my husband, Steven, who was standing in the doorway, listening in disbelief on the extension as the surgeon told us that I was a lucky woman, that the cancer was low-grade and slow growing, eminently treatable with a lumpectomy and six weeks of radiation. We stared at each other for a beat, as close and as distant as we had ever been. He reached his hand out, as if to keep me with him. "But I eat organic broccoli!" I wailed, and then began to cry.
That was January 1997, only six weeks past my thirty-fifth birthday. The odds of being diagnosed at that age were one in 233. A fluke. "Do you have a family history?" an acquaintance asked when I told her the news. I suppose it was a natural question, although fewer than a quarter of breast cancers are familial. But it struck me — along with the inevitable queries I'd field about whether I held in anger, had endured a trauma, or had been depressed — as a way for other women, under the guise of caring, to reassure themselves that they were safe. "No, I don't," I snapped. "No one in my family has had breast cancer. I'm just like you."
As far as I knew, that was true.
A week later, I read an article in the paper about a blood test that could detect inherited mutations in the BRCA genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2. In most women the BRCA genes suppress tumor growth. In some families, however, the gene contains a flaw, passed along by either the mother or the father, that makes it do the opposite, predisposing its carriers to breast and ovarian cancer. About one in 800 people carry the BRCA1 mutation in the general public, but among Ashkenazi Jews — those whose ancestors emigrated from middle or Eastern Europe — the rate of mutations in either gene is closer to one in 40. I'm an Ashkenazi Jew. My aunt had died of ovarian cancer at 54. At the time, we thought that was a fluke too. Yet even as the thought, this could be me, entered my head, I rejected the idea. No one else in my extended family had been sick. Besides, I already knew my lifetime breast cancer risk: It was 100 percent.
There is a little bit of Vegas in predictive genetic testing, a roll of the statistical dice. Even if you found, let's say, that you had an 80 percent risk for some disease, who's to say you wouldn't be in the other 20 percent? What if the known risk-reducing treatments come with risks of their own, the way tamoxifen, the widely used breast cancer drug, increases the risk of uterine cancer? Increasingly, all of us will be running the numbers and weighing the trade-offs on one scary condition or another — we all have skeletons lurking in our skeletons. In its zeal to find them, science has outpaced the medical, psychological, and ethical implications of its discoveries.
Cardiovascular disease. Diabetes. There will be gene tests for all of them and more, and each will bring with it the same questions: Who should be tested? What is the benefit of knowing you're at risk, especially if, as with the degenerative and ultimately fatal Huntington's disease, there is no cure available? What responsibility does a person who tests have to family members, including those who might not want to know the status? Should genetic testing be a factor in choosing whom you marry? Would some couples want to abort if their fetuses were found to have a tendency toward cancer? Mutations are not a guarantee of cancer, remember, and cancer is by no means a death sentence. Maybe there are some things we can't, or shouldn't, control.
The BRCA tests were among the first gene tests to hit the marketplace, and since they involve half the population and are harbingers of so much to come, they're important and bear watching. That doesn't make them any easier to deal with. "There are people who come in for their first genetic counseling session, then we never see them again," said Richard King, director of the division of genetics and molecular medicine program at the University of Minnesota, in Minneapolis. "The risks are scary to face. But I've also seen the benefits of testing, even with Huntington's disease. Families can get things organized and understand things better, be more prepared.
"Would I be tested in that position?" he paused. "I don't know. I can't give a direct answer without thinking about it. Just like everyone else."
A Schism in Our DNA
My mother mentioned something in passing: My Great Aunt Goldie had died of a "stomach ailment."
"You mean she had ovarian cancer?" I asked.
She hesitated. "It's possible," she said. "Though who knows? Back then, it could've been appendicitis."
Oh, she continued, and Great Aunt Jane? On Grandpa's side? She had breast cancer in her 70s. And Anice, my first cousin once removed? The one who'd lived on a ranch in Montana? Breast cancer killed her in her early 40s. Then there was Great Aunt Minnie; she died of breast cancer too. "But she was phobic," my mom assured me, as if mental illness changed the physical one. Minnie wore only white and lived in an all-white house in Los Angeles with all-white furniture, including her grand piano. When she got sick, she refused to go to a hospital for treatment — she was afraid there'd be germs there. It seemed to me that Minnie had a lot more to worry about than breast cancer.
I, on the other hand, was getting increasingly nervous — maybe cancer really did lurk in my family's gene pool. I still hoped to have children; what might I be passing on to them? A year after finishing my breast cancer treatment, I finally mentioned it to my GP. "Everyone has some family history of cancer," he said, shrugging. But he suggested I make an appointment with a genetic counselor, saying, "I think it will ease your mind."
I eyed the other patients at the Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of California San Francisco. Were they getting treatment, or were they also waiting for someone to read their genetic tea leaves? An elderly couple shuffled in with his-and-hers walkers, the legs of which had been made scuff-proof by attaching Day-Glo tennis balls. In another context I might have pitied them their frailty, but nowI found myself envious. At least they'd made it this far.
Calculating My Breast Cancer Risk
My counselor was a young, sweet-faced woman named Lisa, who would assess my risk of a mutation from what was already known; then the decision of whether to get tested would be mine. She took my family history, tapping her pencil on her desk a few times before explaining that a Jewish family with just one case of early onset breast cancer, combined with one case of ovarian cancer at any age, was statistically likely to have a mutation. Then she pulled out a pie chart. "See this section?" she asked, pointing to a large white slice. "This is sporadic breast cancer. It's random. It represents about 70 percent of all breast cancers. These women have no previous family history of disease."
I nodded. That, I had assumed, was me. "Now see this section?" she continued, pointing to a smaller, striped area. "These are people with familial cancer, but without any known cancer-gene involvement; they may have other behavioral or inherited factors at work, such as body size or a naturally higher level of estrogen. This represents about 20 percent of cases.''
I nodded again. "Now this section," she said, pointing to a thin, black sliver of the pie. "This is where I think you fall. These are people with a genetic mutation. My suspicion would be that you have a BRCA1 mutation. It carries a 60 to 85 percent lifetime risk of breast cancer and a 20 to 50 percent risk of ovarian cancer." She went on to say that if I did have children, there was a 50 percent chance that I would pass the mutation on. She continued, but my mind had already floated away. It was so tacky to make that pie segment black, I was thinking, so insensitive. Couldn't they make it green? Or polka-dotted? Less of a grim reaper?
I focused my anger on the chart; I couldn't absorb what the counselor was saying. Not yet. If she was guessing right, that meant I could get cancer again and again? And the next time, it could be in my ovaries? If I had children and they got sick, it would be my fault. Should I not have them? What if my mother hadn't had me?
If I did have the mutation, I finally heard Lisa say, the most effective risk-reducing options for mutation carriers were a double mastectomy and an ovariectomy, removal of one or both ovaries. That is: amputation of healthy body parts. Once again, I gazed down at my body, which suddenly seemed like an assassin, a stranger. I'm a journalist, someone who believes in the power of knowledge. But for the first time in my life, I was weary of information. I wanted to go back to the land of the well; I wanted my visa to this other, desolate country permanently revoked.
The Gene I Didn't Get
A long time later, I would find a kind of terrible beauty, a poetry in the BRCA mutations. They are ancient flaws, which some say date back to about 75 CE, around the time when the Romans sacked Jerusalem and forced the Jews into an exile that would last nearly two thousand years. There are now as many as 11 million Ashkenazim scattered throughout the world, but, since we've had a tendency to intermarry, we mostly descend from the same few thousand forbears. As devastating as the thought of having a mutation was, it was still a tangible connection to my deepest past, to a web of ancestors stretching across millennia. One of my grandparents had carried that legacy, deadly yet sacred, in its history. So had his or her grandparents. And their grandparents. And theirs. The schism in our DNA had flowed through each of them into my own mother's blood and finally into mine. Somehow, knowing they were all in me — with me — through this made me feel stronger.
I also read about a study of people with perfect pitch. That trait too may be partially genetic and, as it happens, may be disproportionately found in Ashkenazi Jews. My brother has it, as does his son. I do not. Great, I thought. They got the perfect pitch gene, while it looks like I got the cancer gene — and I might add, the fat upper arms.
Taking the Genetic Test
Why is there no exact feminine equivalent of the word emasculated? That's how I felt about the idea of prophylactically removing both of my breasts. Maybe they aren't the only source of my femininity, my sexuality, but I'm rather attached to them (as they are to me). We have a lot of history together, me and the girls: standing up to those junior high boys who called me a pirate's dream (because of my "buried treasure"); chanting the legendary bust-increasing mantra from"Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret." (It didn't work.) Giving pleasure. Getting pleasure.
I had chosen lumpectomy before, in part because I felt it would leave me less scarred, psychologically as well as physically, by my illness. Some women feel the opposite — mastectomy, even when clinically unnecessary, is a reassertion of control over their bodies, their destinies — but I needed to be able to look into the mirror each day and see, more or less, what I always had. I was willing to wager that the kind of breast cancer I had was the kind my body would always make: slow growing and treatable. I had no idea whether that was actually true.
Ovarian cancer was a different story — it's hard to detect, and nearly 65 percent of sufferers die within five years of diagnosis. I'd seen my aunt's abdomen swell to the size of a basketball and watched the mischief and vitality drain from her lovely face. "Numbers aren't the only way women make these decisions," said Beth Crawford, manager of UCSF's cancer riskprogram. "If you've experienced loss, you may make a different choice than someone with little history of cancer in her family. I've met women who don't have retirement accounts, they're so convinced that they'll die young. For them, knowing they can reduce risk with a mastectomy or ovariectomy comes as a relief."
Yes, No, Maybe?
About a third of the women who test positive in Crawford's program have risk-reducing double mastectomies, and two-thirds undergo a risk-reducing ovariectomy. Seventeen percent of the latter group have turned out to have early stage, highly treatable cancers, tumors which, without the surgery, would probably not have been caught until they were lethal. That was a pretty powerful argument. On the other hand, I wasn't eager to experience the jarring discomforts or health risks of early, surgical menopause. "Risk tolerance is different for everyone," Crawford said. "Some women can just monitor themselves closely and sit comfortably with that; others can't. Everyone has to come to the decision that best allows them to go forward."
And what would that decision be for me? I stood at the craps table, feeling truly crappy, wondering what testing would mean to my mind, my body, my heart. I kept shaking those dice for the next six years. Then, at age 41, I gave birth to my daughter, and it became clear: I wanted to be here for her first day of kindergarten, to dance at her wedding and to meet my grandchildren. I needed to be tested. Either way, I'd keep my breasts, but if it came out positive for the mutation, I wanted my ovaries gone. Now. And so one day, in between the breastfeeding and diaper changing, I drove to the hospital, had my blood drawn and let those dice roll. The strangest thing was, I wasn't even sure which result I was rooting for.
It came out negative.
"We were as surprised as you are," Crawford told me. "We calculated that you had a 90 percent chance of being positive.
"We call this an uninformed rather than a true negative," she added, explaining that if you thought of the BRCA gene as a document, the current test functioned as a spell and grammar check: It could find missing, extra or transposed letters and words. But if a whole sequence or chapter was gone, the test wouldn't know anything was missing and would come out clean. So I might still have a mutation, they just couldn't yet find it. I'd expected a yes or a no — or, more precisely, I'd expected a yes. But a maybe? No one told me that was a possibility. "Do I still have the ovariectomy?" I asked.
"Well, we can't really make any recommendations beyond regular surveillance, because you don't have a known mutation. Maybe in another year or so we'll have something new to offer you." She smiled sympathetically. "I'm afraid this is a bit like peeling an onion."
What's Next
I walked out of the hospital into the Northern California fog more lost and frightened than when I'd gone in. Perhaps my body really was a time bomb. Or maybe my cancer and my aunt's were totally unrelated. A fluke, after all. I'd finally gambled on the test, and what did I learn? Bupkes. Part of me wished I had tested positive. At least then I'd know how to protect myself. Instead, I was left with the unknown — like everyone else.
The truth is, it's not possible to ward off all evil, all disease, all ill luck. Maybe, someday, there will be much better detection, better treatment of breast and ovarian cancers, more understanding of the causes, even cures. I'll be pushing for all of that, for myself and for my daughter, regardless of our risks. Meanwhile, simple as it sounds, I'm left with one last, best choice: living my life as it comes, every day — just as I always have.

If you've ever seen any Dark Alley Media porn, then you already know to expect lots of hard-driving breeding starring hyper-masculine studs.
Saying that these guys are Fuckin' Trash is honestly a good thing because they're not exactly fine, upstanding type gentlemen. It means there is plenty of cruising in seedy New York City stairwells and back rooms, the kinds of places where you don't go unless you're looking for rough trade.
The fuck flick begins with a scene that has a pseudo-amateur look provided by its lighting or lack thereof – just a flashlight and the "ambient" fluorescent lighting (with its telltale buzzing) – suck face in a stairwell before fucking raw. It's certainly trashy and nobody would have it any other way.
Next, an interracial hookup takes place in what looks like the back office of a club. Newcomer Kane Rider is a sexy black bottom who makes us want to see much more of his muscular ass!
Antonio Biaggi and Boyhous meet up in a cramped, graffiti-decorated bathroom where they have just enough room to fuck. Antonio, a fan favorite, slams his ten-inch cock into Boyhous' hairy asshole.
Luca Bondi, another hot newcomer with a muscular ass, takes a pounding from versatile, pierced, tattooed Dark Alley newbie Ethan Wolfe in what looks like it might be a crime scene (or just a place you're not supposed to be, judging by the web of yellow Caution tape that separates the two guys at the start of the scene). We love it when a scene gives us two new hot guys to ogle.
Bringing the action to a rousing finish, Brandon and Owen Hawk welcome Ethan to the Dark Alley bottoming scene by tag-teaming him raw. Brandon and Owen take turns on the lean-bodied, sexy newcomer. This time the trash is literal, as they catch Ethan taking out the trash when they corner him for some breeding action.
The scruffy punks and other thuggish ne'er-do-wells in this new Dark Alley flick are enough to make you want to cruise in some sketchy places. Just be careful out there!
