The hanging gardens of Verbier
The story
Dawn breaks over the Val de Bagnes. The little chapel of Mauvoisin has the air of a mountain refuge, one of those precious shelters where the hearth is always warm on stormy nights. Its whitewashed walls are flushed bright red by the first rays of the rising sun. Turn to face the Haut Val de Bagnes nature park and watch in wonder as, beyond the morning mist, the lights of Verbier begin to flicker out. It's time to set off on the narrow path that leads to the summit.
The morning air is crisp and dry, summer and winter alike, as you make your way over the rugged rocks which lead to the Mauvoisin dam. Mont-Gelé is several valleys away, and yet there she is standing tall, proudly surveying the Domaine du Valais. Her grand silhouette seems much less imposing from abroad the Attelas cable car…
Seen from the Lac de Mauvoisin, the summit forms a pair with Le Voisin, that forbidding granite façade criss-crossed by the boldest free riders. It's no coincidence that Dominique Perret, considered the best off-piste skier of the century, set up home here in Verbier. The landscape is a succession of inaccessible crests and vertiginous slopes, a natural playground for adrenaline junkies.
After passing through the caves beneath the Mauvoisin dam and clambering up the ladders sealed into the rock face by mountain guides, you finally arrive at the Giétro shelter, last stop before the ascension to Grande Ashle. Up here the edelweiss are not just a cliché: there are so many that you could almost mistake them for banks of snow. These little white flowers are the emblem of Verbier, and you'll find them everywhere: embroidered into the table cloths of restaurants, painted onto shop signs and adorning the wooden friezes which run around the farmer's chalets. But it is up here amid the highest peaks, in the company of the ibex who wander the moraines and the mountaineers setting out to conquer the glaciers, that you truly appreciate the local fascination with this delicate little flower in the form of a snowflake.
The edelweiss serves as a welcome reminder that Verbier is first and foremost a paragon of untamed natural beauty, in spite of its well-manicured ski runs and vibrant nightlife. Though many of the old alpine farms are now plush chalets, those in the know still meet up at the Milk Bar. This Verbier institution, established in 1936, still evokes the spirit of the great outdoors, and the special warmth that can only be found in a bowl of steaming hot chocolate among friends. Snuggled up amid the solid pine décor, revel in the aromas of nutmeg and cinnamon as you listen to one of the owner's many anecdotes; soaking up the spirit of a truly authentic mountain resort, the hallmark of Verbier.
When to go?
Few mountain resorts can truthfully boast that they have no off-season: but Verbier is one of them. In winter, Verbier is famous for its 27 ski slopes and maze of snow-shoe hiking trails. In summer, the unmistakable chords of Chopin's Nocturnes ring out across the Val de Bagne during the Verbier Festival. Free-ride enthusiasts, meanwhile, flock to the Xtreme Verbier contest held in late March/early April.
How to get there?
Its little red and white wagons are unmistakable: for more than a century, the Saint-Bernard Express has been the quickest and safest way to reach Verbier. At the Le Châble station, hop into a cable car to cover the last few hundred meters separating you from the slopes.

This blog was originally titled "Indulge Yourself: Read what you want, watch what you want, and live a life that makes you happy" because that's what I write about here. But as author Natalie J. Damschroder, aka NJ Damschroder, who writes romantic adventure and YA adventure—heart-pounding fiction with kick-ass heroes and heroines who fall in love while they save the world (or at least one small part of it), it seemed prudent to bring this blog into my author world.

New Books, and Bloody Valentines
Here's my very gorgeous cover:
I went to se My Bloody Valentine 3-D last night. I'll be doing a full review of it next week at Supernatural Sisters, but I will say I enjoyed it a lot more than I expected to. I'm not at ALL a horror movie fan, especially the gory kind, but it's not like I didn't know what I was in for. The acting was decent (which it isn't always) and the writing mostly held together (which it rarely does). Even though I'd been spoiled a little, it kept me guessing.
Definitely, if you're inclined to see it in the theater, go for the 3D if at all possible. Someone I read said it wasn't any better than the old 3D, but I beg to differ. It wasn't just the things coming out at you, which were cool but less frequent than I expected. The entire film, start to finish, was 3D. Foreground, middle ground, and background. Combined with the digital format,it was amazing. I've never seen Jensen Ackles so clear. Mmmmmm. Anyway, it added a new level of interest.
New Supernatural tonight! I can't wait! I love Barry Bostwick. And for once, Dean's the one who gets throttled.

It can be pretty frustrating being a music fan in a remote town. The likelihood of you getting to see your favourite artists play live without embarking on a weekend-long jaunt are pretty slim. But don't worry, Lucy Rose fans, your favourite songstress has got you.
Over the last nine weeks Lucy has been on a DIY tour of South America – the itinerary decided by places her fans wished she would play. The fans then host Lucy in their town before she hikes off to another part of the continent. As she put it in her leaving letter, "I need to stop worrying about getting new fans and go visit those who exist now."
Arriving home after countless guerilla gigs, we got on the phone with Rose to find out how the trip has changed her, how it'll shape her music and why she thinks every musician should do something similar.
Are you sad to be back in the UK?
"I'm sad the trip's over but I'm really happy like we did it. It happened, and you know, it all went to plan! So something that had no plan, did somehow go to plan, and it was all perfect. It feels very crazy to be back in my bed at home and like the last time I was there I was feeling completely different. Which was, 'I wonder what the hell's gonna happen over the next nine weeks.' So yeah, it kinda felt different to be back in bed going 'Oh that actually happened!'"
How many gigs did you actually end up playing overall? Can you remember the exact amount?
"Well, the one on the poster that I put out is like 30-something gigs, and nearly every centre we went to asked us to do another one because the first one, all the free tickets went and they were like 'Can you do another one on your day off?' So nearly every day off I had, there was a gig. I think there was one run which I did eleven gigs in a row, everyday and then one night we had off in between. Lots of gigs. It wasn't like a regular tour because we were trying to see as much everyday. I enjoyed everything. If someone was offering me a delicious caipirinha, or something in Brazil I was like 'I'm gonna drink it!'
Was there a particular place you enjoyed the most or you felt like you connected with better?
"It's really difficult because, everyone on stage was really loved. And they were all so nice! The families that had the least, were giving the most. That was something that was quite shocking, if I tried and pay for my bus tickets that they bought in advance for me, they just wouldn't let me pay them back. And we would just give them $40 each and they were like 'Absolutely not!'
I just realised that I never answered your question about where is my favourite place. I can't choose. It's too difficult. I really couldn't choose a country that was better than any because I feel like I would in a way, be saying another one wasn't as good. But I guess, I feel like Brazil was very amazing. Brazil is a country where I feel like the people were extremely friendly and enthusiastic, so maybe there if I had to choose one."
Is there anywhere you wish you could've gone to that you didn't get the chance to?
"It's so tough and I also want to choose a country, which is less well known and less, explored like Ecuador or Paraguay. There were lots of places where I think I was like the first British artist ever to play in these towns. It was kind of crazy."
Has going to these places and connecting with these fans restored your faith in music?
"It made me realise how important music is to different people and especially in some of the places we went to, music is so important. I guess it made me realise why I do music and what the importance of music is. Just taking a long tour I was actually appreciating people that have heard my music and have connected to it, without worrying about all the rest of the crap, which is really annoying sometimes.
It was really nice, it was really rewarding just to be able to spend time with people that did care about my music instead of constantly trying to sell myself and work into any interviews 'why should people come and see your show' and it's really difficult, all of those sort of questions, and be like 'oh because it's going to be amazing, and my show is going to be great'.
Playing free entrances for me was a really important part of this trip. We did some gigs in India and comparing sometimes ticket prices for some of the gigs compared to like a monthly average wage, you realise that you're only playing to the most privileged people in some of these countries. Like when I did a gig in Manila in the Philippines I realised afterwards that the tickets to the festival were more than one months average wage by a long way, and I think I've learned that music is so universal and the people that really connect to music on a really deep level can be people who can't actually afford to go to lots of gigs, even if their favourite band does come because it's so expensive.
For me, that was why I was insistent that the majority, nearly 90% of tickets had to be free entry. I know people that had so little compared to me, and music was so important to them. Sometimes I guess when you don't have as much, things like music become more important because of that."
Would you like to do this again? Would you go and do it somewhere like Asia or Africa perhaps?
"I would love to. I was thinking like going even somewhere like Central America. There was a guy who would had flown from Honduras to Argentina for one of my shows. It's crazy!"
Is this something you would recommend that sort of every musician would do if they could go and connect with all their fans all across the globe?
"I would love more people to do this. For me I never realised that me turning up to someone's town could cause anyone happiness and make anyone happy or change their lives in anyway by doing something like this But actually there are people that when they are tweeting you saying, 'I wish you would come to this town, it would be the best, like a dream come true.' And you read these tweets and you think often actually I could do them, I could make this dream come true and I could tune in, in their living room and play their favourite song and meet them. And I think we don't realise how important it is to make other people happy I guess, and that is why we do music, it's to make other people happy."
My time in Uruguay has been more than wonderful, it's an amazing country and the people I've met are beyond amazing. Thank you Agustin for bringing me to Colonia Del Sacramento and Flo for showing me round Montevideo. I loved staying with you both, Flo your family are the best and thanks for teaching me how to sing in Spanish. Today I'm off to Asunción, Paraguay to meet some new people.
When you start making music again do you think this trip will influence it?
"I'm sure that it would. I'm going to make music that I love and hopefully these people that I've met on the show will also love it – I'm thinking of them as well, when I'm writing it."
So this weekend you're playing at The Unplugged Festival, do you reckon it will be an extension, where you just disconnect from the world connect with real people?
"I have no idea what to expect. Like everything that I've been doing with the trip I don't know who is going to pick me up, I don't know where I'm staying that night, I have no idea. And I have actually a very little idea of what is going to happen this weekend, but I think I'm just going to have to see what happens and enjoy it!

I just had a dream right now about the rapture, September 13th,2019.
I slept around 12 mid-night, it all started,
I saw myself in school with my mates I think we were getting prepared for our exams, so to cut them short. We were all going to God to check if we are to go to heaven or not, as for me, I got a word, "Receive I forbid you sinner."
That was how I woke up from sleep
Nikklus: United States
Here are two, in the first one I am in a moving vehicle of some kind (can't tell from where I am) everything outside of the car is white except for the sky which is grey.
I had my face pressed up against the window. As we went over an overpass, we made a hard right and went off of the bridge (still in the dream).
I wake up in the middle section and see the vehicle on the other side, smoking. Then I feel a big rumbling and look up to see two blood moons smashing into each other then the people around me and I start going up then I wake up.
In the second dream, I am at a family friends house, but it was new, sort of futuristic, very round and sleek with colors of beige, green, brown and blue ( solar panels). We were in their small pool/ Jacuzzi, and it was my parents and me, our family friends and two of their friends ( a middle-aged bald man and a surly woman in her 80-90s), and she never got into the pool but stayed inside the whole time.
We were just sitting and making small talk, and the bald man went inside to change and left the rest of us in the pool.
Then I looked up and saw a giant storm-head building above us. When everyone else looked up nearly half a dozen funnel clouds came halfway down and then back up, going through that cycle several times; it finally stopped, but the cloud remained.
Then in the distance at a big lake an ENORMOUS like I can't stress how abnormally large it was, a giant Darth Vader RED lightning bolt struck the surface of the water and sent out like a nuclear shock-wave and just a giant wall of fire, but before it got to us my family and I went up.
The dream continued if only for a short time, I don't know what happened to the family friends or the old lady, but I saw the bald man, and he was horrified because he knew what had happened and that he was left behind. I could see him wandering through the devastation of the lightning bolt; I started to go up, and then I woke.
Lauren: United States
I had a dream the other night, and all I remember is a beautiful sound of music. I was sleeping and was pulled from my body and floated up with other people.
We got to this bright light and were singing songs of his praise; we were all so happy and full of love we just grabbed each other's hands and thanked Jesus for coming.
But something was holding me back. I kept looking for my boyfriend, and he wasn't with me. So I ended up going back to my body.
I feel like it was a warning that if I don't help guide him to our Lord, he will be left behind. But I can't wait from him to return to be blessed enough to experience such a dream. Thank you, Lord. Thank you.
Pandora: United States
May 7, 2019, I was out of work, but I think the Lord for the work that he gave me and everything and everyone in it.
I was trying to take care of some personal business and finally got tired enough to go to sleep, but when I went to sleep, I dreamed I was running and that I heard a horn blow.
Then I saw everybody going up, and I fell to my knees and started crying for Him to take me. All I remember is that I was left behind. I wanted to know the meaning of the dream and why does it bother me so much?...
Coraly: United States
I dreamed that the people and I around here were waiting to be raptured. Once the moment came they were getting taking up, and I said, Jesus, please take me too, and all of a sudden I find myself in the sky going up. And all of a sudden I fall and everyone that was going up watched me as I was falling and I fall someone dark ... what could this mean.
Patricia: United States
I had a rapture dream in 1988, and it was so real and so impactful that I could not shake it for over an hour. I can't stress that enough about this dream. I've had dreams where I was disturbed afterward but not anything like this.
The dream starts with an angel floating across the sky with white fluffy clouds. The angel blows a very loud elongated trumpet, and everything shook. Then Jesus floats across the sky, and I know in my heart its the rapture.
What happens next has disturbed me all these years. I was then back down in my life at the time, and I was frantically packing a suitcase with the idea that I will flee to the caves or something. Then I wake up. I was left behind! It was so disturbing. I was so upset and ashamed. I never told anyone for at least 20 years.
I was saved, but I struggled in my walk at times.
I want to know if others have had this dream and maybe find more info to help me process this.
I am saved and surrendered fully. I am not worried about missing it now but what a dream!
Finding some peace about this dream would be good.
Amy: United States
Two nights ago I had a dream about four trumpets sounds and God appearing in the sky. The trumpet sounded in 1 long progressively louder deafening sound. I went outside and knew immediately what was happening. I saw people frantically running around, trying to escape, confused, panicked. I just stood there watching and thinking how sad it was to see everyone scared and confused. The second trumpet sounded, and my oldest son appeared next to me. My three younger children were not there, and I had the feeling they had already been taken. I talked calmly to my son and told him ill see him when I get there. The 3rd trumpet sounded, but it seemed to be a much longer time in between the 2nd and 3rd trumpet call. And during that time, many people calmed down and went about their day like it was a false alarm, and were shocked with disbelief at the 3rd trumpet. The sky began swirling and cracked wide open, and Gods face filled the massive void of sky. He looked down at all of the people running. He was angry, but there was also such sadness and disappointment in his eyes for all of us. I felt like he was sad that we had all ignored his word, and lived in our flesh and doubted his second coming. He was sad to punish us in such a way, but I felt like we deserved what we were going through. Without speaking, I said to God that I'm sorry I lived in sin and contributed to his sorrow, and to please let me come to heaven. But my heart knew that wasn't enough. My son cried and said he didn't want to go without me. I said he must; he is called to go. That I have work to do before I'm allowed to join him. The 4th trumpet sounded, my son was gone, and I woke up.
Andrea: United States
I woke up from what I believe was a warning to myself from God that the second coming of Christ is near. In my dream I was driving and then all of a sudden, The sky opened up and transparent beings "the dead" was rising from out of the ground to meet the Lord in the air. Jesus was standing at the very top of the clouds, and there was a massive door behind him that glowed brighter than the sun. Jesus appeared to be Bright himself like transparent Gold in color, but the texture of waves like that of sand from the desert. All the dead in Christ was meeting him above the clouds, and all stood before him. Then the sky closed up, and I knew right then I had been left behind. I woke up and begun crying out Jesus' name begging forgiveness. There's still time. Ask forgiveness, allow him to be number one in your life again. Your soul will love you for it.
Timothy: Philippines
I had a dream, I was in a mall with my friends, and it was a regular day. My friends and I went to the 4th floor to watch a concert by a local artist; he was singing greatly until he ended his song and started dissing another local artist. Everyone watching was cheering and laughing. I even told my friends that I knew who the local artist was referring to. I took out my phone to take a video until suddenly each one of them starts to disappear including the artist that was spreading hate. The sound of disappearance sounded like wind blowing towards a sheet or blanket, each time a person disappears. I was witnessing an event, for a second I thought it was a stunt when all of a sudden, all of my friends started to disappear as well. That time I knew it was the Rapture and I feared I'd be left behind. I closed my eyes panting and praying "Lord this is real, take me to your kingdom. I am sorry." I was in doubt and shaking. My eyes were still shut and my feet on the ground, I hear the sound of falling as if I was being transcended to the clouds. I was still in doubt as I can't see the light when I started to open and squint my eyes. It was just a dream, but it felt like reality. I was panting, and I began to pray and ask for forgiveness. It is a calling, and its time to repent and live like Christ.
Something reminds me that this is not just an ordinary dream, but a real vision of what's to come.
That time when I woke up, I asked God to give me time, so I can prepare myself and start revering Him once again.
Jennifer: United States
(10/10/18 @ 7:11)
The sky was dark, super dark. And the clouds roared with red cracks in them, almost like lava trails but had a darker tone of red. It looked like the start of the rapture.
I ran outside, but it was night time, and all I could think was "Jesus is coming! This is the rapture!" I looked at the other people outside witnessing the sky, and said to them "we are going home! Bothers and sisters we are going home!" Everyone was making sure to keep track of one another; I was so excited, and then I heard the sound of a trumpet.
I closed my eyes and listened carefully; I was excited and waited to be taken. After the trumpet sound, I looked around and realized I was still on earth. Then a car, blasting music, came to the side of the street, and I ran inside the house. I kept thinking, "I cannot wait to have Jesus teach me everything, we will have eternity together after all!"
And then I had a vision of being in heaven with Jesus and being next to him with multiple people, and I knew I was there learning from him. The vision was blurry, but Jesus had so much love, and I was so happy.
I then opened the front door to the house. I was on the street walking up it, and there were cops with a lot of people walking together like a community. The dogs were also gathered together. The sky started to have flower looking fireworks; huge and bright. I believe these were meant to be a distraction to what was actually going on. People around me were looking up at the fireworks and only paying attention to them.
I got back to my house and started to think that Jesus did not take me to heaven with him, and my heart felt heavy. This was when I woke up.
Jasmine: United States
I found this site by trying to figure out what my dreams mean. I usually don't recall my dreams, but this week I had 2 very vivid dreams. Both very short brief dreams. The first happened a few days earlier. I dreamed of a pure white horse running seemed towards me at first in an open field, but then it went across the field. Then what seemed an angel appeared (no wings) long dark hair and long flowing blue dress. The angel looked at me, then I woke up. Last night I had a second dream. Before I fell asleep, it was storming with heat lightning outside. I had gone out to see because it was causing a weird flickering light inside. I have seen heat lightning before, but this was different in appearance. I came inside and fell asleep. I had the most vivid dream as if I were really awake. I went outside at night because in my dream I was awoken with lights like aurora boreal and I looked up with my dad, and we saw a huge white cross lit up across a field and all these beautiful colors of light were flying around it and I saw huge displays of the shape of DNA. I immediately became scared and thought this is the rapture, and I ran to find my kids and pets. For some reason, I was yelling for them to go to the basement as if that would protect us from something. My youngest child asked mom whats going on? I said its the rapture. Then immediately I thought were still here! Why are we still here? And I wanted to cry. Then I woke up. If anyone knows what this means let me know as I am new to this. Thanks.
Rojas: United States
I dream not once but several times each one different from working in the field to going home I can not explain what or why I dream all I know that at the end of the day a trumpet sounds off and I'm alone, and my loves are gone. I have even dreamed of the underworld as well as inline in heaven and falling.
Gabriela: Country
I had a rapture dream last night and it was intense so much so, I woke up in tears and talking to God asking him to seek my heart and to forgive me for any trespasses.
It was a sunny day and the sky started turning dark and it started doing some very weird things.. I kept watching it wondering what it could be, my husband jumped in the shower and told me that it's nothing and carried on with a shower. I was just in awe watching the sky as it was doing things that I would never imagine it would do. After several minutes of watching, I went back to grab my husband to show him and when we were walking back our son that was asleep on the couch was raptured leaving behind his little clothes. We started pacing back and forth asking each other what we did wrong and then I woke up in tears... so real and it was definitely from the Lord
Michele: United States
I had a dream that I, an old friend of mine and her older brother were sitting in a little room with a candle, there were posters on the wall, but it all looked like it was almost ashy... I don't remember a lot about what we were talking about but all of a sudden I said to them both, "I don't understand how we've been left behind, our father has forsaken us" I woke up and sat up immediately, crying. I had a very unsettling feeling with me for the rest of that day.
Max: United States
I was asleep when I was awoken by a loud trumpet, at first my thought was the reason. I believed it was the "sky trumpet phenomenon" but when I took a look outside my window the sky was a purple storm, and I saw people going up to the sky to join with the lord. That's when I understood I was awoken by the seven trumpets and I realized, I was not saved. What pained me the most of all is that I saw my mother in the room beside me, nothing happened, she was not saved.
Then I have realized I have lived my entire life up until then without asking forgiveness from our Lord and Savior; he had not saved me because I have refused to follow him and beg for his forgiveness. When I realized this, I tried to fall to my knees and beg for forgiveness, but I could not.
Vanessa: United States
My dream started off with me sitting beside my boyfriend, and my kids in the living room and I then hear a horn and looked up at the sky, and it turned very golden and bright. The house sorta turned invisible like, and my boyfriend and I was holding hands stood up and began to walk towards a field toward that light, and it was like I had no control over my movement. I began to look around and panic because i didn't see my kids, and I kept saying where my babies Lord I want my babies, and I was panicking cause I didn't see them. then the dream ended immediately after I asked where they were and I was then awake. My heart was pounding cause I was kinda scared, to be honest, and now I'm sitting here trying to figure out what all these means and I'm still worrying I don't know what to think and that scares me.
We Missed the Rapture:
We Missed the Rapture is a dream about a husband and wife who were left behind in the Rapture as submitted to the Trusting in Jesus website.
Abigael: Kenya
I had a dream about the rapture, and it was terrifying. And in that dream, the Lord had already told me that he was coming. Nervously I prayed so hard and yes!!everyone was going up, and then the Lord took me up a bit then brought me down, I felt so sad,...the ones who left including me were so confused.....earth didn't seem like home anymore...
Could anyone possibly be able to interpret this for me?
Pedro: Canada
I was sleeping in my SUV and was dreaming that I was sleeping in that same spot and meteor start falling, and an iron ball fell from the sky and hit my SUV right on the motor area keeping me from fleeing the area. I immediately thought was that the rapture had occurred and I was left behind, my second thought was the dragon tale trow 1/3 of the stars to the earth than I woke up
The dream started off with some sports game we were all at a stadium. The sun or light of the world flickered off once but only half... if that makes sense while the other half still lit but it was just for a quick second where I thought it was just me. But then again half of the earth went dark and a second after the other half went dark. And immediately as it was pitch black, I began to rise. Honestly, I was terrified thinking "oh man I don't know if I'm ready" so I raised my hands and just began to "worship" and call out to Jesus... the whole time still rising. I tried to look down cause I wanted to see where my son was but my eyes couldn't see anything, and it made me sad. There was some song or ringing happening. I could still hear the sound of a basketball dribbling (I'm sure it was just the tv) After a while of rising I felt a hand touch mine and immediately felt relief thinking it was Jesus. But the hand grabbed one of mine and then one of the legs and flipped me and threw me down. The scariest thing to ever feel. I cried out to Jesus, but it was too late. Then I was forced to wake up.

As I was preparing for one of our upcoming teleclasses, I was noticing a pattern in the discussion topics. Things like: Poor Planning - You make a date for one night after work.
Middle aged dating blog
We share interests like going to the theatre, travelling and cooking.'But I had to go through the mill to find happiness.By the end of this page you will have practical knowledge of good dating etiquette to enable you to make a positively good impression You will not bumble along in ignorance causing your prospect to roll their eyes in despair It will change your world for the better Dating etiquette comes naturally to people who already have good manners and show consideration for others at all times It is second nature to them; they are not self-centered and are respected by people of either sex When people date they usually share a common objective – they hope to win over the object of their affection They therefore want to give a favourable impression of themselves Hopefully, they will also bring out the best in their date The fact that you have read this far indicates that you want to know how to behave properly on your date so that you can practice good dating etiquette; a good start!The rules are basically the same for teens, the middle aged and seniors, first date or last date, girls or guys Primary rule – girls and guys, treat your date with dignity and respect; this applies to online dating as well Don't know what dignity and respect are? Broaden your vocabulary beyond a few repetitive expletives No drunkenness.
During that time, she had moved 100 miles from the home she loved and spent a decade eschewing all men for fear of having her heart broken again.
'It's hard to define why we clicked,' says Miriam, 54, 'but perhaps after one marriage and four years of dating, I was better equipped to judge a good man.
Mark is kind, patient, loving and completely selfless.
My husband and I divorced in 1996 after he left me for one of my work colleagues.
I couldn't bear to stay in Hertfordshire, where we lived, so I left my friends and family and moved to Hastings to start afresh.
This is a good opportunity to agree on who pays for what? If you are running late ring and give a new ETA Dress appropriately for the occasion. Lightly perfumed or with deodoriser/after shave Guys – open, hold open and close doors for your date (even if she is driving) It shows that you are prepared to go out of your way to be courteous to her Girls - let him, but don't expect it Either way, be gracious about it; smile or thank him This is not the time to push your liberated female views Some other time...maybe Girls usually precede guys in the theatre, church, movies, to the table at a restaurant and most other places and guys help her to be seated - this is sophisticated dating etiquette Guys on the other hand lead the way through crowds and traffic On sidewalks, guys should walk nearest the street to 'protect' the girl - you get the idea Compliment each other Neither one of you is perfect, there has to be something to compliment with sincerity Look for it. If you can't find something to compliment, why are you dating this person? Practice being gracious right to the end Next time start with a cup of coffee first – just to test the water Do not abandon your date at the venue Be close and attentive or it may become your last date with that person Being attentive to your date does not mean totally excluding all others in the group or at the party Be pleasant to your date Talking down to your date or being patronising is not good etiquette Remember your manners.
One thought on "middle aged dating blog"
But I don't think that the outside appearances is what gives us the experience [of novelty]. We seek out someone else because we are not being seen. The yearning for depth when you start to live a horizontal life: you wake up in the morning, have your coffee, go to work, come home, watch something. And then suddenly something happens that takes you down deep.

9th Guest Lecture in Creative Media Colloquium this semester with:
Dennis Wong
Date: Tuesday April 14, 2015
Time: 5.00pm – 6.00pm
Venue: 6/F Run Run Shaw Creative Media Centre M6094 Future Cinema Studio
Title: Anti-Instrumentalism: The Road Not To Be Travelled
Abstract: Anti-instrumentalism has a double meaning: The pursuit of aimlessness and uselessness in art, and the redefinition of "instrumental standard" by doing what is supposed to be amiss. This is about a personal journey of discovering strength in one's weakness.
About the speaker: Sin:Ned, aka Dennis WONG/ WONG Chung Fai, is an improviser, experimentalist and noise addict from Hong Kong. He regards himself asmedium and his works, only manifestation of our hidden sonic aspects. His practice on noise and sound signifies an implicit form of mysticism in search of direct and pure physical sonic experience through chaos, errors and the extremes. As an instrumentalist, he struggles to defy all existing rational and orthodox structures by pursuing a seemingly "meaningless, aimless and purpose-less" sonic existence. His works involved instrument and materials ranges widely from Chapman Stick, guitar, laptop, hardware synths, circuit bent instruments, field recordings to various unusual non-musical objects and devices. He is the co-founder of Re-Records (www.re-records.com), Twenty Alpha and advisor of soundpocket (www.soundpocket.org.hk); also founding member of experimental outfits No One Pulse, After Doom and adeo. He is the ritualist behind home brew events suchas Kill The Silence Festival, Keep The Silence Festival, Subliminal Lounge, ACO Sound-on-Site, and live performance series NOISE to SIGNAL for improvised noise and experimental music
Being a veteran writer of the legendary Hong Kong alternative music magazine MCB(Music Colony Bi-Weekly), his writings had influenced a wide spectrum of experimental musicians and listeners in Hong Kong and China. As a sound improviser, he has offered performance and creative work for concert, sound installation, workshop, audio-visual and theatrical performance such as Get It Louder (2007), Hong Kong & Shenzhen Biennale of Urbanism\Architecture (2007, 2009), Architecture is Art Festival (2009), Notch Festival 2009 Guangzhou Station (2009), Against 2012: Fukuoka Extreme Music Festival (2012), New Vision Arts Festival (2012), Miji Festival (2013), Kill The Silence Festival (2013& 2014), Freespace Festival (2013), Lacking Sound Festival (2014)…etc.
He has worked with artists such as Zbigniew Karkowski, Otomo Yoshihide, Kazuhisa Uchihashi, Alfred 23 Harth, Yan Jun, Torturing Nurse, dj sniff, and Dickson Dee…etc. His works have been featured in the infamous Belgium imprint Sub Rosa's "An Anthology of Chinese Electronic Music" and "An Anthology of Noise & Electronic Music Vol. 7".

Suns Sign Shaquille Harrison to Second 10-Day Contract
The Phoenix Suns have signed guard Shaquille Harrison to a second 10-day contract after initially signing him on February 21.
Harrison has appeared in five games with the Suns, the first five games of his NBA career, totaling nine points, 10 rebounds, eight steals and seven assists in 43 minutes. In Wednesday's win at Memphis, Harrison recorded seven points, five rebounds, four steals, two assists and a block. Harrison also had four steals in his NBA debut on February 23 against the LA Clippers; he and Alvan Adams are the only players in Suns history to record multiple performances of at least four steals through four career games.
A 6-4, 190-pound guard, Harrison was originally called up from the Northern Arizona Suns of the NBA G League. In 36 games with the NAZ Suns this season, he averaged 11.0 points, 4.7 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.9 steals (10th in G League). In five games after taking over the starting point guard role on February 2, Harrison averaged 14.0 points on 48.3 percent shooting, 9.2 assists, 7.0 rebounds and 2.4 steals, guiding the NAZ Suns to a 4-1 record in those games. On February 9 at the South Bay Lakers, Harrison scored 25 points and dished out a career-high 12 assists.
The 33rd GATORADE Call-Up in the NBA this season and league-high fourth from the NAZ Suns, Harrison has averaged 10.3 points on 45.8 percent shooting, 4.3 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.6 steals in 84 career G League games, all with the NAZ Suns over the past two seasons.
The 24-year-old went unselected in the 2016 NBA Draft out of the University of Tulsa. In addition to two seasons with the Suns' NBA G League affiliate, Harrison participated in Phoenix's training camp prior to the 2016-17 season and played for the Suns' Summer League team in 2017, averaging 10.3 points on 61.1 percent shooting in three games.
A native of Kansas City, Missouri, Harrison left Tulsa as the only player in Golden Hurricane basketball history to start every game in a four-year career. He averaged 11.1 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.8 steals in 133 games for his career, finishing second in program history with 461 career assists and third with 244 steals.

There are so many great benefits and I knew people out there who could discuss the specifics more in depth. This is why I want to do a future interview with someone or a few people about how they have benefited from playing Tabletop RPGs. You may know but I plan on doing an interview with someone between every video series over on Master the Game. It serves as my own little way to break up each series and give people something to look forward to. If I can do a meaningful interview that leads into the following series even better!Read More

Frill-Ability is a medium to help disabled folks and others of intersectional identities find products that are beyond just useful for their lives. We aren't well-marketed to, and the amount of companies who design for us are few and far between. I love reviewing products and partnering with companies who create things that work well for our bodies and enrich our lives. We deserve to thrive. There is an expectation we should only survive because most of us are low-income--goodness forbid we spend money on anything but food and rent. It's a foolish notion.
I also want to give this platform to the people who are denied a voice by the media because they were deemed not worthy enough by major publications. FrillAbility is small, but we are strong, and very grateful for our readers.
Facilitating all of this comes out of my pocket personally when I cannot get a brand sponsorship, and it's very costly. The majority of my living is earned via SSDI and SSI plus a part time job in museum education. Making FrillAbility possible, however, is my life's passion. We are a nonprofit, not yet 501c3, and we could use any funding you are willing to give.
Your donations go towards purchasing items for adaptive reviews, improving our technical equipment, attending industry events, and organizing our own events.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

According to a new reports out of Italy recently, Amazon has acquired a mobile payment firm called GoPago that could help it enter the mobile payment space. The company will no doubt compete against early entrants including Square, Isis, Google Wallet and others, though Amazon's existing online retail footprint and consumer base could help it get a quicker stronghold in the market.
GoPago offers both iOS and Android applications under the same name, and the apps are designed to allow you to pay ahead of time and then pick up your order, or in the case of a restaurant, wait for it to get delivered to your table. Once you've received the items you've paid for, simply tap "I received my order," and you're good to go. If it implements the technology, Amazon could potentially allow a customer to buy something online or from his or her phone, and then go to a store or fulfillment center partner and pick it up.
GoPago CEO Vincenzo Di Nicola confirmed the acquisition to Italian tech outlet Siliconvalley.Correiere.it and suggested that Amazon has big dreams for implementing GoPago's services into its own. "I can not say more, except for the fact that the technology will] put GoPago at the base of a new ambitious project." Terms of the deal were not revealed and Amazon has yet to confirm the acquisition itself.

Divide and conquer your perennials
Tue., Sept. 11, 2007
Summer's heat is gone. We've had a bit of rain that has perked up the gardens. The fall garden season is upon us.
One of the major jobs is dividing perennials, and the first few weeks of September are the perfect time to get the job done.
Perennials usually need dividing for three basic reasons. First, they have outgrown their spot in the garden and are threatening to take over. Second, overgrown perennials usually quit producing abundant flowers and look tired by the end of the summer. It's also a good idea to divide plants if you simply want more of a particularly nice perennial or one that seems to do well in that problem spot. In my case, I am always looking for more perennials that have proved to be quite deer resistant.
As a rule in our colder climate, dividing should be done in early September so that the plants have six to eight weeks to develop a new root system. If they don't have some roots to hold themselves in the ground they are prone to frost heaving over the winter. In my deer-infested garden, plants that don't have a good root system tend to get pulled up as the deer sample them over the winter.
Usually it is best to divide spring and summer blooming perennials in the fall and wait until spring to divide fall blooming plants. The actual process of dividing is not hard as long as a few important steps are followed.
Wait until the forecast is for a few days of cooler weather; cloudy, rainy days are best but uncommon for us this time of year. Water the plants well the day before so they are well-hydrated and easy to dig. Prepare new beds in advance by working in compost and watering well. Add compost to old beds. If you have to keep plants out of the ground for a few days, store them in a temporary bed or place them in a shady location and cover the root balls with moist mulch.
The actual division of a perennial depends on its root structure. Plants with spreading root system or runners can simply have clumps of roots and stems pulled apart and replanted. Clumping root systems generally have new shoots that grow from the crown of the plant. These plants are best divided by cutting the crown into pieces each with some growing buds attached. Tough clumps may need to be sawed apart. Rhizomes like iris need to be divided by pulling the rhizomes apart and replanting large healthy pieces with a fan of leaves attached.
Plan on watering new plantings until the end of October and later if it stays dry. Mulch new plants this first winter with pine needles, compost or shredded leaves to reduce the potential of frost heaving over winter. Don't fertilize the new plants.

Most of the tax advice you hear or read in the media is geared toward the general population. Business owners and investors should not follow this advice because business owners and investors are part of a special group that receives much better tax benefits than the general public.
There are so many examples to share here, but I'll focus on one that really seems to shake people up. When I share this one, I usually have a few people upset with me. Why? Because it often goes against the only financial concepts they know.
Let me first start with a question: Do you want to retire wealthy?
Of course, everyone answers that they want to retire wealthy. But, tax advice given to the general population goes against this. One of the most common pieces of tax advice given to the general population is to maximize the contribution to their qualified retirement plan every year.
The truth behind these retirement plans is that they are designed to work best for those who retire poor.
Most countries have qualified retirement plans. In the U.S., the most popular types are IRAs and 401(k)s. In a qualified retirement plan, you contribute money and get a tax deduction for your contribution. Then, the earnings inside the qualified plan are not currently taxed.
Up to this point, the result is great tax savings.
When you retire and take the money out, it is taxable. Let's look at what this really means. To do that, I'll ask another question.
Why do you contribute to a retirement plan?
The answer I get is almost always the same. Get the deduction now and pay the tax later.
In other words, take a deduction now, when your earnings and tax rate are higher, and defer the tax until later when your earnings and tax rate are lower.
Odds are you've heard this advice before. It is standard advice for the general population. This thinking makes no sense, particularly for business owners and investors. In order to be in a lower tax bracket when you retire, it means you will be making less money when you retire.
Why base your financial future around a plan that works best if you retire poor?
I wasn't kidding when I said people get upset when I share how the popular advice of maximizing your qualified plan contribution works best if you retire poor.
I usually have a line of people waiting for me after I get off stage. Most are trying to justify why they contribute to a retirement plan - their employer matches or they use the tax-free version (a Roth in the U.S.) and not the traditional version. I can tell they are beginning to look at their finances and tax planning a little differently, which can be an upsetting process.
Good News for Business Owners and Investors
Business owners and investors have much better opportunities available to them in the tax law to reduce their taxes. Often times, the tax saving opportunities available to business owners and investors are permanent tax savings - this means the tax is not deferred to a later year, it is eliminated.
Scrutinize the general tax advice you hear or read. Is it the best advice for your specific wealth and tax strategy or are there better opportunities available to you because you are a business owner or an investor?

The "--sort" parameter of for-each-ref, etc, does not handle negation, and instead returns an error to the parse-options code. But neither piece of code prints anything for the user, which may leave them confused: $ git for-each-ref --no-sort $ echo $? 129 As the comment in the callback function notes, this probably should clear the list, which would make it consistent with other list-like options (i.e., anything that uses OPT_STRING_LIST currently). Unfortunately that's a bit tricky due to the way the ref-filter code works. But in the meantime, let's at least make the error a little less confusing: - switch to using PARSE_OPT_NONEG in the option definition, which will cause the options code to produce a useful message - since this was cut-and-pasted to four different spots, let's define a single OPT_REF_SORT() macro that we can use everywhere - the callback can use BUG_ON_OPT_NEG() to make sure the correct flags are used (incidentally, this also satisfies -Wunused-parameters, since we're now looking at "unset") - expand the comment into a NEEDSWORK to make it clear that the direction is right, but the details need to be worked out Signed-off-by: Jeff King <firstname.lastname@example.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <email@example.com>95be717c

Savages, first US film by producer Ismail Merchant and director James Ivory, is about members of a primitive tribe who are lured by the appearance of a rolling croquet ball to an old deserted mansion where they dress in clothes and take on 'civilized' societal behavior, only to return to the forest and their primitive behavior the following morning.
The playing has flair and grace, sans woodenness from everyone, with Walter Lassally's excellently balanced b&w lensing for the primitive days and color for the so-called civilized times a great asset, as are the editing and music. The only carp might be a tendency to overplay an act.
But no denying an almost hypnotic charm and fascination in this offbeat, insouciant look at mankind and his climb to civilization and fall.

EP26 - This Is What 106 Funerals Taught Me About Life & Digital Legacy Lesson #4
Look at an old photograph.
A frozen moment in time.
A time that lives again.
They live again.
They say a picture paints a thousand words. I say they paint a thousand days. The people in the photograph, though they may no longer be alive, live as you look into their faces. You see their smiles; you can hear in your mind the way they laughed one more time. You can relive that day, that moment, that minute as though they were still here and time had stood still. A thousand days in one image.
EP25 - This Is Lesson Three of What I Learned From 106 Funerals About Life & Digital Legacy
"Western funerals: black hearses, and black horses, and fast-fading flowers. Why should black be the colour of death? Why not the colours of a sunset?
— Daniele Varè, The Maker of Heavenly Trousers
"Talking about sex will not get you pregnant, neither will talking about a funeral kill you."
Said Gail Rubin, founder of A Good Goodbye.
She is right. From my experience, people rarely speak of death. In 106 funerals conducted in the last six months, only a handful of families knew the wishes of their loved one. When they did, it made such a difference. It does not matter how old you are, plan your funeral.
EP24 - This Is Lesson Two of What I Learned From 106 Funerals About Life & Digital Legacy
Lesson Two - Life Is Short
We cannot judge a song by its duration
Nor by the number of its notes;
We must judge it by the way
it touches and lifts our souls.
Sometimes those unfinished
are among the most beautiful.
In the last six months, I have written 106 funeral services. Wrapped up in the mystery of those unwelcome days, are four valuable lessons I have learned. Lessons about life and how you can leave a digital legacy for your family. This is lesson two.
EP23 - This Is Lesson One of What I Learned From 106 Funeral About Life & Digital Legacy
This Is What 106 Funerals Taught Me About Life & Digital Legacy
Helping 106 families face death teaches you about life. Death comes to us all. It comes mostly at times when you least expect it. It comes to the old, the sick, the young and the healthy. It comes. It will come to you.
In the last six months, I have written 106 funeral services. Wrapped up in the mystery of those unwelcome days, are four valuable lessons I have learned. Lessons about life and how you can leave a digital legacy for your family.

If you're online searching for Simple Tips to Help You Save Money on a Road Trip, you've come to the right place. The success of your road trip depends heavily on proper preparation. You've probably heard the saying that if you fail to plan, then you're planning to fail. This post will highlight the mistakes to avoid in order to stay within your budget comfortably while on the road.
1. 10 Simple Tips to Help You Save Money on a Road Trip
1. Carry water from home
Driving for long hours in the sun causes dehydration at a high rate. Both you and your passengers require water to compensate for this rapid rate of dehydration. Despite the availability of bottled mineral water at convenience stores, it's too expensive to keep on purchasing water at each stop.
Make sure you purchase a 5-gallon portable water cooler if your group consists of four members. Since each person just needs one liter of drinking water per day, you'll have enough supply for 4-5 days. It's also advisable to carry water bottles instead of purchasing disposable plastic cups.
2. Avoid buying several varieties of snacks
Snacking while driving is one of the best pleasures of a road trip. You may notice that each group member has different preferences when it comes to snacks. It can be really expensive trying to cater to each individual choice of sweet treats.
Smart road trip pros limit their snack choices to just two or three types. For instance, potato chips, assorted nuts, and soda. Buying these items in bulk will save you a lot of money compared to buying five or six different types of snacks.
3. Consider carrying homemade snacks
The thing about snacks is that they always leave you craving for more. One can end up spending gas money while trying to satisfy cravings for foods rich in enhanced flavors and processed sugars. Moreover, consuming more than three types of snacks within a short duration brings about bloating and long periods of discomfort.
You can keep homemade popcorn fresh for several hours by storing it in an airtight container. The same method applies to homemade cookies. If you have a portable ice cooler, it will enable you to preserve several liters of homemade lemonade and freshly squeezed orange juice.
4. Eat fresh meals at local diners
Your body still needs real food in order to provide enough energy required to drive for long hours. Most people tend to ignore vegetables while on road trips but they end up with bloated stomachs and Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Consuming snacks exclusively clogs your large intestine.
Why should you eat at local diners? There are two important advantages. Local diners always prepare fresh food every day. They cook moderate quantities of food because they serve a small clientele. At the end of the day, all cooking pots are empty. Second, you're guaranteed of getting fresh food at really affordable prices. A nice double cheeseburger at a diner costs half the price of a Burger King equivalent.
5. Consider camping instead of booking hotel rooms
If your road trip involves exploring a distant town or city, you need decent accommodations. The first thing that comes to mind is looking up good hotels in your destination. While there's nothing wrong with this idea, you'll save more money by looking into other forms of accommodation.
Camping sites are ideal for one-week road trips. They're also fun because living in the outdoors is an exciting experience because you enjoy fresh breezes and an amazing view of the night sky while chilling by the campfire.
6. Map out the cheapest gas stations
Smart drivers budget wisely by identifying all gas stations in their road trip destinations. Proper preparation ensures that you spend fuel efficiently by knowing how much each station charges for a gallon of gas. You also won't waste precious fuel driving several miles in search of an affordable gas station.
If you have friends in these destinations, ask them to send you a map of all the gas stations. If there's a national franchise in the area, make sure you get a fuel debit card because you get discounts when you fill up your tank.
7. Carry swimming gear
If you're heading to a beach, make sure you carry swimming gear from home. It's wrong to assume that you'll easily find a costume or swimming trunks at the beach. The beachside stores slap high prices on swimming gear because they know visitors are desperate for a swim and there's no alternative nearby.
Apart from expensive prices, you'll have to settle for what's available at the stores. You may be forced to buy an oversized or tightly fitting costume because it's the only closest match to your body size
8. Avoid long routes
If you're planning a road trip that involves more than three days, you need to mind your fuel consumption. Proper preparation requires you to visit the area in advance or reach out to people that are familiar with your destinations. By mapping out your routes while relying on credible information, you'll be better placed to know which routes favor low fuel consumption.
9. Carry spare tires
Never assume that you'll easily get spare tires in your road trip destinations. Even if you're traveling to an urban area that has several auto mechanic shops, the prices vary significantly. Car tires in a popular tourist destination are expensive because the huge number of driving tourists keeps the demand for car tires high.
10. Carry your car anti-theft devices
If you're not certain about the security of where you'll park your car, it's important to carry all your car anti-theft devices. Otherwise, your auto insurance company can refuse to compensate you on grounds that you refused to take necessary safety measures when intentionally parking your car overnight in an unsafe area.
Make sure you have a good set of anti-theft tire lug nuts to prevent loss of car tires. These lug nuts keep your car tires where the parking lot is too far to hear your alarm.
Read: Car Anti Theft Devices You Need in 2018
Proper preparation ensures that you enjoy every moment of your road trip. You'll also have enough money to cover unexpected emergencies when you have enough accommodation, food, and gas money.
