True Grit is at once the straightest movie of the Coen brothers' career and the kinkiest. It takes chutzpah for filmmakers with a sensibility as distinctly offbeat as Joel and Ethan Coen's to remake an Academy Award-winning Hollywood classic that by nearly every measure "belongs" to legendary actor John Wayne. But it's also a safe choice in some ways. True Grit is a known title in a beloved genre, and with Jeff Bridges and Matt Damon top-lining the cast, this is hardly a risky commercial proposition. All the Coens had to do was connect the dots and count the money.
That they don't quite do that may prove frustrating for some, at least at first. True Grit is a handsome film, with Roger Deakins' burnished cinematography and Carter Burwell's stirring score setting an elegant stage — which the Coens then populate with world-class eccentrics. Bridges plays marshal-for-hire Rooster Cogburn as a mush-mouthed souse, delivering a running monologue about the men he's killed and the women he's driven away. Damon plays a dandyish Texas Ranger named La Boeuf, who has an untamable cowlick, a gift for gab, and a prideful streak as wide as the Panhandle.
And newcomer Hailee Steinfeld plays Mattie Ross, a 14-year-old girl with the poise, stubbornness and elocution of a 44-year-old spinster. When Mattie's father is shot dead in Fort Smith, Ark., she engages Cogburn to bring in the culprit before La Boeuf can beat them to it. And while all three explore the wilds of Indian country — sometimes working as a team and sometimes as rivals — they encounter all manner of outlaws, dimwits, mystics and madmen, in what critic Greil Marcus once dubbed "the old, weird America."
This new True Grit hews closer to Charles Portis' 1968 novel than did the 1969 John Wayne movie, which retained Portis' stylized dialogue but in truncated form. Like the 1969 film, the 2010 model takes its time to establish the mood and setting before Mattie and company light out for the territories. There's a lengthy piece of horse-trading, for example, and an extended courtroom scene, both running longer than they did in '69. Both also emphasize the characters' combination of regional lingo and elevated, archaic language — a combo not unlike what the Coens themselves devised for films such as Miller's Crossing and The Hudsucker Proxy. And eventually, yes, there are gunfights and cave rescues and outsize derring-do, reflecting both Portis' and the Coens' vision of a country governed by those few people who've found a rhythm to the madness all around them.
In the end, though, this True Grit isn't strictly a Coen brothers movie, and it isn't an old-fashioned crowd-pleasing western. Once viewers grow accustomed to the quirks, they're likely to find the film surprisingly funny and even moving, but it remains an odd duck throughout — an experiment with form and iconography akin to what Portis attempted with his book. This story is all about looking into the past from a cockeyed angle and testing the durability of our shared myths, be they biblical or torn from the pages of an adventure magazine. And though it dares to border on the cartoonish, True Grit ultimately expresses faith in the tall tales that sustain us, showing how reassuring it can be to lean on those everlasting arms.

I have recently setup Sermon Browser on my church's website. I am able to view the list of sermons in both the widget at page, but when I click on a link to view a single sermon, it shows me this
No sermons found.
I am using IIS and Wordpress 3. I'm not using permalinks with this because Sermon Browser cannot find the stylesheet for its templates. I'm wondering if I need to purchase a mod-re_write application for IIS to make permalinks work correclty to be able to use Sermon Browser properly.
Does anyone know what the cause is and how to fix this?

My husband is literally giving the shirt off his back
…and swapping it for an Anthony Nolan Trust one. And here he is! Wearing his brand new Anthony Nolan Trust racing top for the charity cycle he is doing in my name. It's my last day of the first round of my new chemotherapy – one week on, three weeks off. To say I'm thrilled to see the back of this place for a few weeks is an understatement. The chemotherapy day unit is one of the most depressing holes I've had the pleasure of being made to wait three hours for a five minute treatment in. Or, spa treatment as I insist my doctor calls it. Which she does. Why not...Read More
That pissant is back. I have a very small insurgence of cells, but in the World of Cancer there is no small. There is only remission or not. I'm not. Today, I will start chemotherapy. It's out-patient this time. That's one "bonus". Also, I've been told this chemo won't make me sick. I'm guess I'm pleased to know that too. I don't want to phone/email/text everyone I know with this information so I'm writing here. Plus, it gives me a bit more length to fully explain what is happening. Every time I write something like this and...Read More
The report is clear: disabled children's rights are being compromised
This week, I attended the launch of the Parliamentary report into childcare for disabled children. Chaired by MPs Robert Buckland and Pat Glass, it took into consideration extensive research by Contact a Family and the personal evidence of parents, local councils and education providers. The report is stark reading. The statistics are truly awful. Children are being denied a right to an education and play, and this goes against the UN Convention on the Rights of Children, not to mention our own British laws. In short, it is illegal. On the night, I was asked to speak again. I pointed out the...Read More
Are disabled children being denied their right to an education?
May and I appear in The Independent today defending disabled children's right to early years education. The article takes much from the speech I gave in Parliament, and thus the reason why I didn't publish the speech earlier. The title of the article is 'Are disabled children being refused the right to an early years education?' — but it could have easily have read 'Are the mothers of disabled children being refuse their basic right to work?' The issues go hand in hand. Here is the article. You can see it in full on The Independent's website....Read More
This is the most disgusting thing you will read today
May is five years old now. She no longer fits on those baby changing tables, and she is only getting bigger. If you leave your home for more than an hour, chances are you might need to use the toilet. May does too. When we go out and she needs to be changed, we have no choice but to place her on the floor of a toilet. We wouldn't put a baby on the floor of a toilet. What a revolting thought. We wouldn't choose to lie about ourselves on the floors of toilets. Or, allow our toddler to eat a bit of food he drops there. But, there seems to be very little drive to provide sanitary...Read More

"My mental hands were empty, and I felt I must do something as a counterirritant or antibody to my hysterical alarm at getting married at the age of 43."
"Total physical and mental inertia are highly agreeable, much more so than we allow ourselves to imagine. A beach not only permits such inertia but enforces it, thus neatly eliminating all problems of guilt. It is now the only place in our overly active world that does."
"I mentally conceive of some movable projected on a horizontal plane all impediments being put aside. Now it is evident ... that the equable motion on this plane would be perpetual if the plane were of infinite extent; but if we assume it to be ended,"
"Seek out that particular mental attribute which makes you feel most deeply and vitally alive, along with which comes the inner voice which says, 'This is the real me,' and when you have found that attitude, follow it."
"Out of the multitude of our sense experiences we take, mentally and arbitrarily, certain repeatedly occurring complexes of sense impression (partly in conjunction with sense impressions which are interpreted as signs for sense experiences of others), and we attribute to them a meaning the meaning of the bodily object."

By Donald H. Gold, INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY
A rising stock is fine. But if the broad market is rising, then how do you know there's anything special about your stock?
By looking at the Relative Strength (RS) line, which gauges your stock against all others.
Why is the RS line so important? As lawyers say, "Res ipsa loquitur," Latin for "The thing describes itself."
View Enlarged Image
The RS line shows how that individual stock is faring compared to the S&P 500, the proxy for the broad market.
The RS line has no numbers. It's a visual thing: Look at it. Is your stock's RS line rising (good) or falling (bad)?
And don't confuse the RS line with the Relative Price Strength Rating; they are not the same. The RS Rating compares a stock's price performance against all stocks in IBD's database over a trailing 12-month period.
Even more important is to see the line rising during a broad-market correction.
Remember, downtime for the broad market is often when the best stocks build their bases.
This positive action in a negative environment will surely force that RS line to climb. Then you may notice that the stock is holding its ground, falling less or even rising while the broad market is tumbling.
Finally, the best breakouts often are presaged by a push by the RS line into new high ground. This can be the last clue that your stock is about to make its move.
A clue like that, while not a prerequisite for a stellar run, is priceless when it does appear.
The RS line offered such a heads up for Chinese search-engine juggernaut Baidu (BIDU). In May 2007, the stock had been trading less than two years. Its numbers were beautiful, its story compelling (the dominant search engine in a huge country that was embracing all things computer) and it had already established an uptrend.
The stock built a cup-with-handle base in the 17 weeks through May 14, 2007. Now look at the RS line. Yes, it's rushing toward new high ground, as you'd expect in an emerging leader.
The RS line was telling you that this stock was under more accumulation than could be accounted for by the general market.
Baidu climbed more than 220% to a split-adjusted peak of 42.92 in 2007 before the stock market plunged in 2008. It made another big run from 2009 to early 2011.
Old Dominion Freight Line (NASDAQ:ODFL) is the fifth largest less-than-truckload carrier in the U.S. LTL carriers charge premium prices for smaller loads that don't require a full 48- or 53-foot trailer. Key Fundamentals Sales growth had been in the single or low double digits for several quarters, ...
The base-on-base pattern may not seem common to new readers of IBD, but it is definitely worth knowing and spotting. It typically consists of a flat base that sits on top of a cup-with-handle, double-bottom or other pattern. The base on base also offers an opportunity to buy a stock just as it goes ...
WhiteWave Foods (NYSE:WWAV) makes plant-based food, beverages, coffee creamers and dairy products sold under brands such as Horizon, Silk, Alpro and International Delight. It's been a pioneer in turning organic and alternative offerings, such as almond milk, into more mainstream products. This ...
Discount retailers, shoe manufacturers and steel makers have staged a sharp comeback amid merger activity and strong performances by a handful of companies. Steel Dynamics (NASDAQ:STLD) leads the steel producers industry group with a 95 Composite Rating, followed closely by U.S. Steel (NYSE:X) at ...
Stocks lost more ground Friday, but the retreat was more contained and the volume lighter than in Thursday's drop. The Nasdaq and the Dow Jones industrial average trimmed 0.4% Friday. The S&P 500 cut 0.3%. All three indexes trimmed losses. The IBD 50 was virtually flat. Volume fell across the ...

Tickle story - New Year dealIt is New Years Eve and we are about 6 hours from midnight. I am with a group of friends and we are excited about the party premises; one of these guys is Michio-chan the guy who was planning to tickle me but I managed to tickle him instead. I am too excited that I completely forget about his promise to tickle me back.Around 7 and we are walking to the party location. I say 'Michio-chan, are you excited?' He replies 'Yeah, this will be a fun night'. We are near the place, however I stop and stare at a building. I felt I remember something about this place. Although I dont realise it at first, it was the same building Michio-chan planned to tickle be before when I successfuly got him instead. But when I do realise this, a bag is placed on my head and my body is lifted.Apparently I get taken to this same building but I dont notice this since I have a bag over my head. At the same time, one person is lifting my hands and someone else is lifting my feet. I am already aware that one of th
Tickle story - The beginningIt's a beautiful day as I take a visit to the mall. I pass by a few different stores then I go inside an electronic store. After looking for something to buy, I notice a new game just released. I manage to get the chance to have a go at the game and I'm enjoying myself.After a while, someone approaches me and wants to play a bit against me. Even though I dont know the guy, I offer to play against him. We actually enjoy ourselves. But after a while, I won against him; but he doesnt look to happy. As I leave the store, the guy seems to be looking at my feet wearing flip flops (but I dont notice this).After about an hour, I get ready to leave the mall. While walking in the car park, someone approaches me and I see him face to face. I realise that it was the same guy from the electronic store. I asked "Hi. Can I help you?" He doesnt reply, but I notice he is looking at me in an unusual way and I begin to wonder. Then he puts a bag over my head and lifts me. Technically I have been kidnap
Tickle story - You aint smart?Its another day where I visit my favourite place for social interaction. This premises is where people can visit to interact whether with people they know or dont know. Although its considered a great location for people to make friends and interact with new people. There are a few people whom I see visit this place the same times I do, and I get along with a few of them. Apparently, one of them keeps on looking at my feet whenever I were flip flops. Even though I consider him a nice guy, he has no idea that I am suspicious about him looking at my feet; as well as others at times.Today, he is at the same place but talking to other people, but he is just behind me. I act sneaky by over hearing what he is saying. I notice he is talking how he would like to tickle me; especially my feet. He is describing how he will tickle me by using certain tickling methods; and he plans to do this today. He even mentions where he will be doing this. As I become allerted about this, he has no idea that
TS - Nick meets DillonNick the echidna is just an ordinary simple guy; who has a desire for going out in the night. So he visits a nearby bar one night to enjoy a drink. As he enters the bar, he sits on a stool and asks for a bottle of bear. Moments after he receives his drink, he notices someone in a really drunken haze approaching to him; then Nick asks 'um, can I help you?'Nick looks concerned as this drunken duck is acting completely dizzy. 'Damn, where is my drink?' the duck yells; which is strange because he is already holding a beer bottle. Nick begins to think 'is this guy crazy or what?' then the duck falls on a stool near Nick as he stares at Nick in the eyes and says 'yo, what's up man? Dillon's my name'. Nick feels confused but honoured somewhat and replies 'hello, I'm Nick'. Then Dillon offers Nick another drink and says 'this is a better drink man, trust me'. Nick tries the drink and is satisfied 'you're right, that was better. I guess you know your drinks' Dillon shows a smile on his face an
Sweet girl by chance part 1Tickle story:What a lovely day as I take a walk across the park; breathing the fresh air from the beautiful breeze. Because of the satisfying weather, I decided to take a gentle jog. During this time, I witnessed a beautiful scenery of bushes, trees, birds and even the people that enjoy experiencing the green environment.After 30 minutes of a full jog, I spotted a park bench to rest on. As I was walking my way towards the bench, I kept on breathing in and out the fresh air; which helped me feel more relaxed and positive. Ready to sit on the bench I was, said to myself 'this is a great day and its only morning'. Immediately the moment I sit down 'aaaaahhhhhhh' I heard from a girl scream; 'whoa' I reply. Apparently I didn't realize that someone was lying on the bench before me. Her legs went up with her slippers flying off her feet the moment she screamed. Even though this was within a few seconds, I looked where her slippers would land; with one on the floor and the other on my lap. A
Tickle story ideaI am thinking of doing a few tickling stories. After I saw a few on DA and I did some myself, I might post some tickling stories.Although, I need you fans to help me by commenting if you would like to see some tickling stories. Also, if you have any ideas to include in the tickling story or if you would like me to use your DA account name in the story, you are more than welcome to mention your recommendations.
Different story ideaI posted my first tickle story and the amount of views are quite good. So thanks to those who like it. I plan to do more tickle stories.However, I have been wondering if I should include foot whipping in my tickle stories, or make a separate story for this method etc. Some might know this as bastinado or falaka. But basically foot torture would include actions like: whip with a cane, riding crop, actual whip, puting a hot flame under the soles etc.So i ask u should i include this in my stories or not? and only if ur answer is yes, should i make a separate story, or include it in the tickle story?
SAW idea for tickle storiesFor those people that dont know, SAW is a horror film franchise. The main plot of these films are that a victim is placed on a test / game on which they have to survive or they die. Although it is described as a method of rehabilitation in the film, it looks like torture. In most parts of these films, the victim is in a trap and they have to make a sacrifice in order to live. This sacrifice for example can include crushing your hands to prevent a blade slashing the stomach (start of SAW V). So they are given two options.Obviously I will not use torture in my tickle stories. But I was wondering when someone gets tickled, should they be given options of which one they rather be tickled by? This wont be in all of my tickle stories, just some of them. For example, the ticklee could be given the option to be tickled by having their feet licked for 30 minutes, or have their arm pits tickled for an hour.Tell me if you like this idea for tickling and if I should include it. But remember, the

The Tickle FairThis story is a Naruto tickling one-shot and is dated pre-shippuden, just before the Chunin exams, so yes, Sasukes still there.Naruto sat atop his apartment, sighing as he wondered how Sakura was doing on her mission.Why did Grandma Tsunade have to send all the girls out on a mission!? Naruto yelled to himself.He was annoyed, not only because he missed Sakura, but also because tonight was a festival and he was planning on asking Sakura. He sighed wondering if he should go himself or just stay home.Maybe I should ask some of the guys if they wanna go
Naruto thought, leaping onto his feet and jumping to the ground.He walked around town looking for his friends when he found Kiba training with Akamaru at the park.GO AKAMARU! Kiba yelled, pointing towards the sky.The little dog jumped, bouncing off a tree and flying over Narutos head, spinning in the air while his pee splashed of Narutos face.AAACK!
The Ticklish Fire PrinceOne night, when Toph was walking back to the main hall of the Airbending temple, she noticed a small whole in the wall. When, she looked at it more closely, it gave her a great idea. The night Zuko, pleaded to join the group, he burned her feet, and she was REALLY blinded for a whole day.Later that night, she went to Zuko and asked, "Hey, Zuko, do you think you could help me with something.""Sure," Zuko replied.After dinner Toph led Zuko to the hole and said,"I was playing with my bracelet and I threw far into that hole and for some reason, I can't bend it out or see anything in there.""Well, that's strange, but I 'll get it," he said, crawling into the hole.He kept crawling until all that was only his feet were sticking out."Hey Toph, I think I'm at the end of the tunnel and I don't think its here," Zuko said."Right," Toph said, smiling mischievously, "This is for burning my feet.""What is, Ah!" Zuko yelled as Toph earthbended the hole shut around his body, restricting his move
Tickled for MoneyOkay, so here's my newest tickling story, it's on the acted show the Suite Life on Deck, which I really don't like, but I've always thought they should get tickled, so yeah.Well Zack, youve managed to blow all the money from the money from the yoyo contest! Cody said as they walked around the deck of the S.S. Tipton.Oh come on Cody, Im sure we can think up away to get money! Zack said.Fine, but Im not going to help you on this one! He said.Okay, so youre relying on me, to THINK of an idea to make us money, He replied.Uh

never mind
Aang's Ticklish PredicamentAfter being defeated at the Eclipse Invasion, Aang was really down."Hey, Aang, come here and let's do some more training," Katara said, standing in the airbending temple's water fountain."I dunno, I don't really feel like training right now and besides, Zuko is laying in the fountain," Aang replied, gloomily."No, go ahead," Zuko said, "I was just leaving, to go fishing with the group.""See, now come here," Katara insisted."Fine," Aang replied. He slipped of his robes and jumped into the fountain in his trunks.He got in and lazily floated to the bottom."Hey, get up!" Katara yelled."I'm to upset to train right now," Aang said, his face sinking below the surface."If you don't cheer up, right now, I'll make you!" Katara shouted."Ugh," Aang groaned, sinking deeper."That's it, I've had it," she yelled. Katara moved her arms gracefully, waterbending Aang into an ice block that went all the way from his face, from his ankles.Katara walked over to the end of the floating ice block a
Ash's Ticklish AdventureAs Ash, Dawn and Brock headed to Pastoria City, for Ashs gym battle and Dawns contest, they passed through a swamp, which was rumored to have many strange pokemon.Its kinda creepy here, Dawn remarked.Itll be fine, Brock assured her.Yeah, besides we might find some cool new pokemon, Ash said enthusiastically.Yeah, I guess youre right. Piplup, what about you, ready to catch some pokemon? Dawn asked.PIPLUP! Piplup said, cheerfully.You ready Pikachu? Ash asked.PIKA! It replied.They walked through the swamp for an hour, when all of the sudden the side of the mountain they were on caved in and Ash, slid down the hill side. Luckily he was able to hang on to a tree with his poke ball belt, but he accidentally let go and slid down the rest of the mountain, leaving his belt on the tree.PIKA! Pikachu exclaimed.Are you okay? Dawn yelled.Y-yeah,
Moises Arias +TheTickleMonsterThe alarm clock rang, waking up Moises. He didn't have to work that day but he still liked to wake up on time so that he didn't waste the day. He got out of bed, dressed in only his boxers (his preferred sleepwear) and headed out the door for breakfast. As soon as he left his room a man dressed in entirely black jumped out and grabbed him. Moises struggled but could not escape the man's grasp. As he struggled, Moises felt a rag being put over his face and knew right away that it had chloroform on it. It did not take long for the young actor to pass out.When he regained consciousness, Moises found himself lying on a table, still in his boxers. He tried moving but found that his wrists and ankles were strapped down to the table. Seeing that he couldn't move, he tried to look around to figure out where he was. However, only the area right around the table was lit. The rest of the room was hidden in darkness. Suddenly, a voice came from the darkness."Well, I must admit I didn't think you
Tickle story - My revengeIt's been a few days passed, and I decide to take a visit to my new friend bloodthirster place. He seems pleased to see me. We decide to play a bit of video games me against him. We play for above an hour and we are enjoying ourselves. Later on, he gets the advantage while playing, then I realise he is focused on the television so much, its like he doesnt know Im here. So I notice that this is the great opportunity to get my revenge. So while he doesnt see me, I go behind him and choke a sleeper hold around his neck (its some wrestling hold to put opponents to sleep). This becomes successful as I drag his body into a room for tickling.About an hour later, bloodthirster wakes up. He looks confused as he finds himself tied in a table. His hands are to one side each corner and his bare feet are tied on the other side of the table each corner. However, he finds out that he doesnt have a shirt on so he becomes suspicious that I will tickle him in his stomach as well; even though when he ti

Valerie Graves death: Police investigate the murder mystery unsettling Bosham – a real-life Midsomer
Police have yet to find a motive for the killing of 'free spirit' Valerie Graves, who was found beaten to death while housesitting
Paul Peachey
Paul Peachey is Crime Correspondent at the Independent
Friday 03 January 2014
As the rain lashed down and the waters rose, the search for any murder weapon on the flooded Sussex coastline became more difficult. Less than a half-mile from the six-bedroom home where grand-mother Valerie Graves was found on Monday beaten to death, police divers waded across an ever-growing pond that had burst its sides and spread across the flooded road.
It was the end of a tumultuous week in Bosham, a picturesque harbour village only partially protected from the sea. At one end of the village, staff at The Anchor Bleu pub bailed out their cellars while householders sandbagged their homes against the rising high tide.
At the other, police teams continued their search in the swollen waterways and flooded fields for clues to the murder of the 55-year-old "free spirit" who was killed in a bedroom while housesitting with three members of her family at the large, luxurious home.
Bosham is unused to real-life drama, other than from flooding and the sea. While it has been used as a location for fictional detective dramas - Poirot was filmed here as was an episode of the Midsomer Murders that saw a man bludgeoned to death in his bedroom - there has not been a break-in for several months.
At this time of year it's normally dead with the second home-owners and holidaymakers staying away, according to local shopkeepers. But the discovery of Ms Graves' body on Monday disturbed the peace of the village as police search vehicles rumbled through the narrow lanes.
Valerie Graves was found dead in the house she was housesitting
Police are investigating whether Ms Graves was killed after disturbing a burglar at the house on Smuggler's Lane, one of a long line of substantial homes with views on to the water. The home is owned by Malcolm and Caroline Chamberlain, who had asked their friends Nigel Acres and his partner Janet Graves – the dead woman's sister – to house-sit while they were on holiday. Valerie Graves and her mother Eileen, 87, joined them for family Christmas celebrations at the home near Chichester, West Sussex.
Ms Graves went to bed about 10pm on Sunday night and was found dead on Monday morning, some 12 hours later, by one of the three relatives.
She had suffered serious head and face injuries and police on Friday appealed for help in tracing anybody who had come home with an unexpected change of clothes, or had asked someone to clean or dispose of blood-stained clothing.
But officers said they were keeping all possibilities open including that the killing was linked to her past. Officers are carrying out a nationwide investigation into the artist's background who had returned from living in Scotland to be with her elderly mother. Asked if there had been any threats against her life, Detective Superintendent Nick May said that officers were doing an "an awful lot of work trying to understand about Valerie's life, who she associates with and who may be connected in that way."
Ms Graves's two children on Friday appealed for help in tracing her killer. Tim Wood and Jemima Harrison were not at the house at the time of the killing.
"My mum was much loved and will be sorely missed by the whole family," Mr Wood told reporters. "She was a free spirit who enjoyed her life and was a talented artist. She had lived in Scotland for about 10 years, a place she loved and which inspired her passion for art.
"We had been lucky to spend time with mum over Christmas and she had a lovely family time, especially with her two grandchildren."
The murder has jolted daily life in a village used to only fleeting moments of fame where life revolves around the church, the school and the yacht club, according to the local vicar. In the summer, the beautiful area is turned into a "goldfish bowl" with day trippers, birdwatchers and TV crews heading to the area. David Dimbleby was the last visitor for the filming of his programme on Britain and the Sea.
Villagers first heard news of the killing via a Neighbourhood Watch email. Police said they had since received "credible information" after appealing for news about on anyone seen loitering in the area around the time of the killing. "It's a pretty cohesive village and not much goes undetected," said Revd Martin Lane, the vicar of Bosham. "People know each other and look out for each other. The fact there has been a murder has come as a shock to everyone."
Detectives confirmed on Friday that they were looking into links between the scene of the killing and an adult website, which once listed the house as a venue for 'swingers' parties, according to reports.
The owner of the house, Malcolm Chamberlain, a millionaire entrepreneur and founder of an upmarket leisure centre chain, denied that he had put a profile on the site.
Police said that Mr Chamberlain and his family were shocked at the murder and, while they had not returned to Britain from their holiday, were fully cooperating with police inquiries.
Mr Chamberlain was a long standing friend of Ms Graves, his solicitor Paul Dixon said.
He was also believed to knows Mr Acres through Kingston basketball club, one of the country's most successful in the early 1990s. Mr Chamberlain owned the club and Mr Acres was a player who later became a British coach.
Bosham, usually a quiet village, has been unsettled by the murder
A number of police vehicles were parked at the property that remained sealed off on Friday with forensic examinations expected to continue for another week.
Officers have interviewed the three members of her family to try to piece together events of the night. They have also spoken to her former partner Roy Wood – the father of their two children, according to reports. But nobody has been arrested and police said they had not identified any suspects.
Ms Graves was found in the rear bedroom but police declined to say if a weapon was used in the attack, or if she had been in bed at the time. While saying that a bungled burglary was a line of inquiry, they also declined to say if there was evidence of a break-in, anything had been stolen, or if other people had keys to the property.
It is one of a number of large properties on a narrow spit of land between tidal waterways. "It's not a neighbourly place, you only ever go out in a car," said one neighbour who declined to be named. "People just get in their cars and drive off."
A large area behind the house running down to the water where local boats were moored was sealed off by police tape. "We have got a specialist underwater search team working," said Detective Superintendent May. "Bosham is almost under water at the moment, and we have got a large number of officers out there looking for items which may be connected with the murder."

Mona Shield Payne's Top 2013 Photos
Thu, Dec 26, 2013 (10:42 a.m.)
As a photojournalist, and especially as a freelance photographer for the Greenspun Media Group, I enjoy reflecting on the images I've been fortunate to capture each year. My favorite are those that evoke emotion and tell the story of that moment. In 2013, some of my favorite photographs still bring tears to my eyes or make me smile; a father returning early from war and surprising his child, a wife hugging her husband in celebration of him surviving cancer, a mom laughing as her babies shriek with terror while visiting Santa Claus or the daunting moment where a hot blaze threatened the beautiful wilderness of Mt. Charleston and cherished lives of our valley's firefighters. I am grateful for the opportunity to capture these moments and share them with you, my fellow Nevadans. I would like to thank every person in my photographs for allowing me to be a part of their lives for even one moment in time behind the lens.

If you use YouTube, you need to know this.
You've heard all these rumblings about Net Neutrality over the past several months. Let's get real: this is about controlling online video. It is estimated that by 2017, video content will account for 80-90% of all global Internet traffic.
This isn't just about not being able to binge-watch a series on Netflix. It's about the future of online video as we know it.
Whether your YouTube channel is home to daily vlogs, short films, or just that one video from when the cinnamon challenge seemed like a good idea, you're a video creator. Your content and comments help shape this community. Let's keep it that way.
Net Neutrality means that your YouTube videos reach people at the same speed as clips from last night's episode of the Tonight Show. It means a level playing field for video creators looking to reach an audience. But new Net Neutrality rules could mess that up.
Here's the deal: Telecommunications companies already charge us to access the Internet through our homes and our phones. New FCC rules could allow them to also charge content providers (like YouTube, Netflix, and even PBS) for access to our eyeballs. It could create a fast lane for Jimmy Fallon's clips, and slow lane for your YouTube videos.
It is really important that the FCC understands that online video creators care about Net Neutrality. Even if you've only ever uploaded ONE VIDEO, you are a creator and you have a voice.
If you can, please add your channel to our petition. We'll deliver this to the FCC in September and demonstrate that the online video community cares about this issue.

robin williams died today.
here is a list of things that robin williams was:
- funny
- sharp
- kind
- clever
- and sad.
that's important, the "and sad," because sometimes sadness can feel like the only thing we are. it can feel all-encompassing. it can feel like the only thing anyone could possibly see, when they look at you: sad. that person is so, so, sad.
but there is always an "and." we are never just sad. we are never only. we are always and.
we have all known people who were sad, who are sad; some of us are ourselves sad. being sad does not remove the other parts of us, though it can make them harder for us to see. when you are sad, you don't necessarily feel like you are also funny, and sharp, and clever, and kind.
but you still are. you don't have to feel like something to be it.
those things are written on your bones, they are woven into the fabric of your skin. sadness can feel so big, so big and overwhelming and complete, even when it is not a directed sadness. maybe especially when it is not a directed sadness, when it's a depression that has no direct cause and nothing we can name.
sometimes the sadness is too big. people try to cut it out, or starve it out, or drink it down, or drug it silent. if this is you: i'm sorry. if this is you: you are not alone. if this is you: remember that the solution is never to give up, because you do not live in a vacuum. there are people waiting for you. there are films and songs and books and not-sadness waiting for you. i know that you don't feel like waiting, but wait anyway.
if you need help, ask for it. here's a link to crisis centers across the globe. if you live in the U.S., this is the national suicide prevention hotline: 1-800-273-8255.
robin williams died today, but the genie didn't, and mrs. doubtfire didn't, and peter pan didn't. sean maquire didn't, and professor philip brainard didn't, and alan parrish didn't. batty koda didn't. john keating didn't. you didn't.

BISHKEK – Kyrgzystan's parliament on Thursday voted to put Russia's strongman prime minister on the map by giving his name to one of its mountain peaks.
A mountain measuring 4,446 metres (14,586 feet) in the country's northern Tian Shan range will henceforth be known as the Peak of Vladimir Putin, after parliament endorsed the idea proposed by the government of the Central Asian state.
A government official told the parliament that Putin, who enjoys being photographed in rugged outdoor pursuits such as horse-riding and swimming in lakes, was keen to climb the peak.
Putin heard of the idea from his Kyrgyz counterpart Almazbek Atambayev and joked that he ought to be the first to climb the newly named mountain, the government's envoy to the parliament told lawmakers.
The initiative was backed by almost all the deputies in the recently elected coalition parliament.
"There's nothing wrong with giving a mountain the name of Vladimir Putin. After all, we're not giving him the whole mountain," said lawmaker Narynbek Moldobayev.
Another lawmaker, Nurlan Sulaimanov, fretted that the diminutive Russian premier might be offended by the relatively small size of the peak, in a country where several mountains tower above 7,000 metres (22,965 feet).
"We should give the Russian politician's name not to a 4,000-metre mountain but to a taller one," he told the parliament.
"Otherwise Vladimir Vladimirovich might be offended that we did not value him highly enough."
Only the country's nationalist ATA Zhurt or Fatherland party, opposed the idea, arguing that the country's mountains should only be named after Kyrgyz people.
"We all respect Vladimir Putin as a strong politician and Russia as a strategic partner, but we cannot give his name to a mountain," said leader Kamchybek Tashiyev, suggesting it be named after novelist Chingiz Aitmatov.
Kyrgyzstan already has a mountain named after the first Russian president Boris Yeltsin, and analysts said the current leadership wanted to emphasize its closeness to Russia.
The Central Asian state was wracked by unrest in 2010 which saw the ousting of the president and ethnic rioting that left hundreds dead. The country recently elected a new coalition government led by Atambayev.
Ones a giant pile of dirt looming over eastern europe…
and the others a mountain…
They shouldn't give the repugs any ideas. I can see Mt. Whitney being renamed Reagan's Peak, and the Rockies
being renamed the Bush Divide.
Mount Putain.
I guess they could not find any Holes in the region so Putin gets a mountain.
What a circle jerk
I took a good, healthy dump this morning and named it Mt. Palin-Bachmann-Boehner.

Sexual hookups are becoming an increasingly prominent feature of life in Western culture, particularly for the twenty-something men and women we call "emerging adults." With the gap between puberty and entry into marriage getting ever wider, these young adults are turning more to casual encounters as a way to express and satisfy their sexual needs. In a comprehensive review of the status of research on casual sex, Kinsey Institute researcher Justin Garcia and his team from SUNY BInghampton (2012) concluded that "Hookups are part of a popular cultural shift that has infiltrated the lives of emerging adults throughout the Westernized world" (p. 171). Yet, hookups pose a significant threat to the physical and psychological health of these young individuals.
In addition to risks of contracting STDs, developing unwanted pregnancies, and being raped or otherwise assaulted, people who engage in casual sex may suffer emotional consequences that persist long past the details of the encounter are but a dim memory. On college campuses, where brief sexual liaisons are as prevalent as parties on a Friday night, the unanticipated results of a hookup can jeopardize a student's career. In the workplace, the results can be just as disastrous, if not more so.

The grill masters at Caminito Argentinean Steakhouse stay true to their culinary roots with a distinctly South American cooking tradition, which begins with hormone-free meat from cows that were fed a vegetable-only diet and raised on pastures instead of in cages. Manning a cast-iron grill stoked by locally sourced hardwoods, the expert chefs fire-kiss select cuts of beef to smoky perfection, infusing filet mignons, skirt steaks, and short ribs with rustic flavors that pair harmoniously with the restaurant's robust selection of Argentinean red wines.
Although Caminito's wood-fired steaks have earned it the Valley Advocate's award for Best Steak House from 2010 through 2013, the menu proves that the restaurant does not live and die by expertly charred beef. Lobster-filled ravioli, pan-seared salmon, and seasoned chicken breasts showcase the kitchen team's culinary repertoire, in addition to vegetarian entrees that aren't just snapshots of steak printed on soy paper. Refreshing sips of ale from Peak Organic Brewing Company complement hearty bites, and spoonfuls of flan and mousse bring meals to their bittersweet conclusion. On weekends, the acoustic strumming of guitarist Alvaro Olvera Sanchez nourishes famished ears with flamenco notes and classic Spanish songs.
Named Valley Advocate's Best Steakhouse for five years in a row, Opa Opa Steakhouse and Brewery grills an array of steak cuts—ranging from sirloin tips to prime rib—to a juicy and house-recommended medium rare. Beyond its steaks, the eatery's grub follows the same Southwestern theme as its dining room's decorative touches, which includes a wagon wheels and a cattle skull. The kitchen's carefully roasted baby-back ribs, barbecued chicken, and pulled pork complements homestyle favorites such as meatloaf, lasagna, and fish and chips. All of the hearty entrees pair with sides that run the gamut from fries to cowboy beans. An array of beers, encompassing award-winning pours such as Red Rock Amber Ale and King Oak Milk Stout, wash meals down more effectively than a good, long yawn in front of water slide. Opa Opa Steakhouse and Brewery also caters events on-site or at the customer's choice of location.
Swirls of sauce and fresh orchid blossoms adorn entrees at Hirosaki Prime, where chefs craft traditional and contemporary Japanese dishes. At tabletop grills throughout the 54-seat hibachi room, they blend cooking and performance in a showy display as they sauté vegetables and seasoned meats. In the smaller lounge, alit with votive candles, otherworldly artwork, and walls inlaid with a soft red glow, guests can sample other Japanese dishes such as chicken teriyaki, as well as specialty sushi rolls such as the Ninja roll, whose shrimp tempura, cucumber, and spicy tuna hide in plain sight.
As Italian eateries go, Peppercorn?s is a chameleon. Entrees can be elegant?grilled salmon over mesclun, steak tips with a seafood casserole?or downright comforting, such as a pot roast with natural pan gravy. Families have an easy time ordering thanks to the thin-crust pizzas and kids' menu, whereas more mature crowds enjoy the benefits of Peppercorn?s proximity to Wormtown Brewery. The craft-beer producers are just next door, so they keep Peppercorn?s bar stocked with their regular brews, rare offerings, and to-go growlers. In the lounge, seven high-definition flat screen TVs broadcast the day?s athletic proceedings, and here spectators can order anything off the full menu while they second-guess the manager's decision to replace the catcher with a pyramid of fragile milk bottles.
Tucked into the rolling greenery of the White Mountains, The Woodshed Restaurant resides in a converted 19th-century farmhouse and barn. The decor reflects the rustic charm of the setting, but the menu features plenty of modern treats. Chefs coat duck breast and confit leg in a cherry port wine reduction, or age steak tips in a sweet bourbon marinade. Though inland, they're still close enough to the sea to get fresh scallops, which they wrap in applewood bacon and serve alongside fire-roasted corn salsa. They follow up meals with all-American desserts such as apple crisp with vanilla ice cream, Denver chocolate pudding, and the chef's choice of flavored cheesecake.
Ken's Steak House is an improbable success story. Ken and Florence Hanna opened the Lakeside Cafe in 1935, the throes of the Great Depression. Bite by bite, they built a loyal base of customers (who always just called the eatery "Ken's"), and after five years, the restaurant took up residence in a small diner on Route 9, then known as Starvation Alley.
But Ken dreamed of a day when the grimly named strip would flourish. Today, it's known as the "Golden Mile"—and Ken's Steak House itself has mushroomed. The kitchen still serves the salad dressing recipes created by Florence Hanna—now a national line of salad dressings—and Ken's son, Timothy, and his wife are in charge.
Chefs broil and fire-grill prime cuts of steak, marinating the chateaubriand's center cut roast tenderloin in a reduction of port wine, or infusing the 8-ounce filet mignon with the earthy smoked notes of the warm cedar planks it's served on. Seafood options nestle up against their turf counterparts, including bacon-wrapped scallops, a full pound of lobster stuffed with crab and shrimp, and pistachio-crusted Atlantic salmon. Chicken and pasta dishes round out the menu, and diners discover Italian influences and plenty of seafood-pasta plates. The rustic wood paneling harkens back to Ken's Steak House's roots, and the upscale fare and soft light cast from chandeliers make the spot an ideal choice for an anniversary dinner or a piñata's last meal.

Seeing John and the others in the path of imminent vaporization jerked Dave back, not only into his right mind, but 413 days into the past.
He was floating in a stretch of space, unremarkable save for the fact that it would soon become the epicenter of the violent unraveling of SBURB from all of paradox space, taking all of the beings currently playing or inhabiting its sessions with it. Dave would be the cause, and – he would believe for a while – the sole survivor.
He was surrounded by his friends and alternate-future-ecto-relatives, and he had seen this scene play out so many times before, seen them all flash-burn to ash so many times before, that as he looked around, all he saw were talking, breathing corpses. At least that made it easier to do what he knew (or thought he knew) that he had to do.
The ground tossed underneath his feet, changing from sand to ice to foliage to strangely substantial cloud, and Dave had to cling to the monolith – the only unchanging landmark – just to cling to his sanity. In the distance, the radio tower stretched into a gothic purple spire that he knew as intimately as his own nightmares.
I feel a sudden and inexplicable need for Matthew Swift in square-frame glasses.
Help me I'm drowning in fandoms.
Made a new phone skin with multicolouredhighlighters' sigil, Yuri Suzuki's artwork and, of course, Kate Griffin's quote.
(Also it's secretly John/Dave.)
John Egbert was…a little confused. Okay, fine, he was very confused, but he was dealing with some really weird stuff!
He supposed the confusion first started when Dave, his best bro in an entirely not wanting to stick their tongues down each other's throats kind of way, had…well. That had happened. Dave had found John in his old room back on his planet one day and he'd looked so serious, and a little scared, so naturally John thought someone had died or something, but then Dave had just told him he liked him. And John was completely justified in being confused about that, because of course Dave liked him; they wouldn't be friends if he didn't! After John had stopped trying to talk past the obstacle of Dave's mouth on his and realized that holy shit, Dave's mouth was on his! and after another few seconds of stupid shock, John had…still not pulled away.
{Part 18, Part 5} / {Part 1} (The poem is an altered version of the one in the dog park in "Poetry Week." Thanks again to vanishedSchism for Karkat writing & general editing!)
Dave listened to the sound of helicopter blades fading quickly, and silently wished his friend a safe return. Since that pteranodon had escaped from the space-time vortex that opened during one of last year's PTA meetings and found a way to hermaphrodidically reproduce, the infestation had become pretty serious and the fact that they were attracted to shiny helicopters was no laughing matter and since when had Dave Strider become such a caring, worrying…sap? He'd have to lock that down soon, or his friends might not even recognize him.
DAVE: Since when do we have a helipad on the roof?
Cecil thought for a moment, steepling his fingers on his crossed knee and leaning back in his chair.
CECIL: I believe we had one last Tuesday for a few hours.
Dave didn't know whether to smile or scowl at that. Not that he'd seriously been considering doing either, but sometimes he liked to entertain the idea of what facial expressions he would have made in reaction to things as an exercise.
Plot is hot.
Dave and Karkat returned to the studio with a new sense of purpose, each allowing himself to hope, just a little, for the first time in a long time.
Karkat wasn't sure how he felt about that. He had been coping for six months, and he had been doing it well. Now there was a chance he and Dave could resurrect the dead – that he could see Sollux and Terezi and Kanaya and god damn it he might even be happy to see John again – and that chance, that hope, made their present absence all the more painful. This had to work.
Dave thought the whole thing seemed too easy. After all that he'd done, and all that he'd put himself through for what he'd done, to be able to just restart, like it never even happened… It was the best thing he could have hoped for, and the most terrifying. As he thought that, he realized he could say the same about seeing John again too.
My Myers-Briggs type is WTNV.

Three episodes of financial fragility in Norway since the 1890s
AbstractThis paper provides for the first time a comparative study of three major banking crises in Norway (1899-1905, 1920-28 and 1988-92), and presents financial and macroeconomic data spanning more than 130 years. Financial sector development appears to be closely linked to booms and busts in economic activity during these years. The boom periods that preceded each of the three crises all have some common features: they were characterised by significant bank expansion, considerable asset price inflation and increased indebtedness. The non-financial sector increased its debt only slightly more than its income during the first two boom periods, but subsequent deflation increased its debt burden. A puzzle in the two first boom periods was that the commercial bank equity-to-total assets ratio increased markedly. Nonetheless, the commercial banks were severely affected in the each subsequent bust. Possible explanations are provided, but this puzzle calls for more research. Altogether, a strong causal link between financial fragility and banking crises is suggested. The crises occurred in different institutional environments and monetary policy regimes, and the role of these is explored and policy lessons are drawn. In particular, the close link between monetary and financial stability is highlighted.
