Lindsay and Ian's big day at the iconic Ripley Castle in Yorkshire was sleek, chic, fun and fabulous… with a really big party at the end of it. Sounds exactly like our kind of wedding.
With images by Brides Up North Sponsor, James Tracey Photography.
Lindsay says: We got engaged at the top of a mountain during a snowboarding trip to Tignes, France on Ian's 30th Birthday. Ian rode all morning with the ring in his pocket unaware his pocket zip had been open! Luckily it was still there when the time came to propose!
We got married on 22nd February 2014 at Ripley Castle in Harrogate. We wanted a winter wedding to tie in with honeymoon plans to head straight to Thailand after the wedding.
We'd looked at a number of venues prior to seeing Ripley Castle and none of them felt right. As soon as we looked around the Castle it was exactly what we were looking for and booked straight away.
I wore a Mori Lee dress, and bought it from Platinum Bridal Boutique, Yeadon.
I never wear strapless dresses so I knew my dress would have sleeves of some description. Before I went dress shopping I saw my dress in a magazine and already knew it was the dress I wanted. I searched for shops who stocked Mori Lee and managed to find the dress I wanted and loved it as soon as I tried it on.
I'm not a massive flower fan so I wanted more greenery and a twig effect rather than roses. My bouquet was made by a florist called Elsie Russell in Shipley – they also made my mums bouquet when she got married.
My make up artist, Lauren Sally, was also amazing and we all loved our make up on the trial and on the day of the wedding.
I had two bridesmaids who had floor length evening dresses from House of Fraser by Ariella.
Ian had a custom made three piece tweed suit made on Saville Row by JLSA MONO Design.
We went for a bit of an indie style wedding as we both love music so this was heavily featured in our wedding plans. We also wanted to keep it a little vintage to keep in with the Castle theme. Our colour scheme was navy blue and green.
We handmade our seating plan which concentrated on our music theme of the wedding. Instead of table numbers we had our favourite bands as the table names and put the bands vinyl on each table.
Instead of a guest book we ordered a heart shaped jigsaw for guests to sign the pieces from www.notonthehighstreet.com
The centre pieces were floating candles and candelabras, and we had little navy blue and ivory chocolate love hearts as our favours. The bridal party all got tailored gift as an extra special thanks.
Neither of us are big sweet people so we went for the savoury option and had a five wheels of cheese cake. This was from Cheese and Chutney, Saltaire.
We used James Tracey Photography. I would definitely recommend James to others. He was exactly what we were looking for as we didn't want structured pictures for hours but more of a documentary style photographer and James is great at this. We've had lots of compliments on how good our pictures look. In addition to this as soon as we met him we knew we wouldn't be a bossy photographer and had a personality which would get along with us and our guests during the day.
We hired a band called 'The Story' who we booked through Warble Entertainment. They played a mixture of music but mainly indie. They had everyone up dancing all night, and their rendition of 'Killing in the Name' was a particular highlight!
The evening reception was probably the best part of the day. The band were amazing and it was great for the evening reception to turn into a massive party with everyone dancing all night.
We went on our honeymoon two days after the wedding. To start with we flew to Bangkok for three nights, from there we stayed on the island of Koh Pha Ngan for three nights where we stayed in an amazing hotel with our own pool overlooking the sea. From there we stayed in Koh Samui for four nights and then to finish off we went to Singapore for a couple of nights.
My top tip for other Brides Up North would be to have a spreadsheet! I had lots of spreadsheets and although everyone laughed at me and I had hours of jokes made about my organisation there wasn't anything I didn't know from looking at them!
I asked Ian to answer this question and his top tip to the groom was 'just say yes'!

Today's wedding makes me yearn for fresher air, falling leaves and azure autumn skies. Fickle, I know.
Sarah & Adam chose a cosy pub setting and rustic, vintage style details for their snug celebration in the Lakes. Make mine a pint of Blond Witch please!
sarah says: We got engaged in New York – at the top of the Empire State building at night. It was freezing & Adam had to keep waiting for a quiet moment – which you don't really get in December in New York! It was very special & we went out for an amazing meal that night to celebrate & watched the Christmas lights at Saks department store.
We were married on 16th November 2013 at The Wild Boar in the Lake District. We fell in love with the place the moment we stepped through the door – it has wood beams & open fires & was just the perfect cosy, vintage venue we wanted. It was also really important to us that all of our closest family & friends could stay at the venue & so it was just the best option for us. The grounds meant we had some amazing wedding photos that really captured the time of year in the Lakes.
We used a colour palette of golds, silvers and creams. I got vintage tea cups from charity shops to use on the tables & we used a lot of tea lights & more rustic flowers rather than stylised centre pieces.
We used Mark Newton Weddings for our photographs. Mark was recommended by a friend & we are delighted with the results. I would & have recommended Mark as he was so good on the day & worked so hard – we also had photo booth by Mark which was really good fun & we got some really great photos from this.
Mark also came up on Friday & spent the day taking photos of Adam & the ushers & dads doing clay pigeon shooting – we are really pleased that we did this as we have the whole weekend captured. It was very important for us to have a photographer that made everyone feel comfortable. Everyone loved Mark & he got some great pictures as a result.
Our day was filmed by Tiago & Sandra from All ByVideo who were amazing and worked really hard all day creating a 1.15 wedding film for us that we love.
My dress was from Bridal Apparel in Rawdon Leeds – I chose it because I loved the lace back & it wasn't too big for the venue & for dancing later.
My mother in law made me a vintage brooch bouquet made up of jewellery from my Grandmas who have passed away.
I had five adult bridesmaids & they had two different dresses – three wore gold/cream dresses from French Connection & we added netting & belts . The other two wore silver from Phase 8. I also had three young bridesmaids from 3- 7 and they all wore silver sparkly dresses from Monsoon.
Adam wore a tweed suit from Next, altered to fit him perfectly. It really suited the time of year.
We used Flower Design based in Blackpool for the venue flowers & they were amazing. We used lots of gypsophila & apples & moss from the fields next to the venue to decorate as we wanted a very natural look.
My brother is a baker & he made a cake & cupcakes with snowflakes on them. We used a wood stand for the cake with some silver pine cones to decorate it.
Food is very important to us & so that was big factor in our choice of venue. The food at the Wild Boar is amazing –we were able to give our guests a three course meal with three choices for each course – ranging from a deli board for starter, Steak for main & White Chocolate Cheesecake for pudding. We bought our own wine from the supermarket to save a bit of cash & then just paid corkage!
For our honeymoon, we went to San Francisco, Hawaii & then Washington. We would go back to San Fran in the summer as it rained a lot when we were there but it was still amazing & we went to Alcatraz & did the Golden Gate Bridge on bikes in the torrential rain. We went to the Big Island in Hawaii & really relaxed – the food & beaches were stunning. To break up the trip back home we went to Washington to see all the sights.
My top tip for other Brides Up North would be to enjoy the whole process of planning & make sure you don't compromise on the important things such as your photographer & videographer as they will help to create the lasting memories of the day for you.

Well, well, well. Aren't things looking pretty around here this morning?
Not to ignore the rather gorgeous elephant in the room, we're going to talk more about our new look later on (have a good look around, you'll find some snazzy new interactive features to have a play with) but for now, it's straight into the wedding watching.
Don't know about you, but I've missed our daily fix of lovely whilst we've been redecorating these pages, and I just couldn't wait. This morning we're joining Brides Up North reader Sam and her husband Neil for their romantic real wedding in Yorkshire.
Sam says: We got engaged on 15th September 2012.
Neil and I were getting ready to go the St Leger races in Doncaster and before we went Neil suggested that we go to the Lakeside to have some photos taken as we were all dressed up. It was a beautiful sunny day and when we got there Neil got down on one knee and asked me to marry him!
We got married on 24th February 2014. It was very important to us to have a church ceremony and for this we chose St Mary's Catholic Church in Selby. Our reception venue was Carlton Towers. It was the first venue we went to look at and we immediately knew that it was where we wanted to have our reception.
We would highly recommend Carlton Towers as a wedding venue. Nothing was ever too much trouble and the day ran without a hitch.
We tried to choose things that would look timeless and elegant. My dress was lace so I took some inspiration from this when choosing other items.
We used a palette of ivory, grey, pink and deep plum colours. When we met our florist she advised us to choose colours which toned in with the bridesmaids dresses as picking out the plum colour in the flowers could have made everything look quite gothic and we wanted a more classic, vintage style.
We hired a number of items from Beau Ideal Weddings to use at Carlton Towers including chair covers with ivory satin sashes, crystal candelabras for the guest tables and lots of pots of flowers and candles. We also hired a huge ornate silver mirror and easel for our table plan and an old-fashioned postbox which was dressed with gypsophila.
There were so many extra touches we added to make our wedding personal to us. Neil designed all of our wedding stationery and I made the invitations with the help of his mum. I liked the idea of using some old sheet music which my grandfather's had given me in the wedding somewhere, so a friend made them into confetti cones for me. I made a display of old family wedding photos to display on top of the piano in the reception venue and we named our reception tables after wedding anniversaries. We designed and made our own guest book out of photographs that our photographer had taken on our engagement shoot. We also made the playlist for our wedding breakfast and included lots of our favourite songs. A family friend and wedding guest provided our evening reception food – a hog roast and lots of tasty desserts.
My dress was by Justin Alexander and I bought it from Georgian House Bridal in Doncaster. I knew when I went shopping for a wedding dress I didn't want a strapless dress and knew that I liked lace.This dress was the first I tried on and the moment I put it on it felt right and I knew it was the dress for me! I wore a vintage style hair comb in my hair and my veil had some lace embellishments to tie in with my dress.
I carried a bouquet of faith, amnesia, memory lane, avalanche and vendela roses, brunia, eucalyptus, pink wax flower and ornithogalum which was designed by Emma-Victoria at Beau Ideal Weddings.
Neil wore a traditional navy morning suit with a pale grey pin-stripe waistcoat and plum coloured cravat to match the bridesmaid's dresses. This was hired from Georgian House Bridal.
The bridesmaids wore deep plum coloured maxi dresses with grey faux fur shrugs. Both were from Debut at Debenhams.
Our photographer was Phil Shillitoe from Yorkshire Portraits. Phil was superb on the day. He was very discrete and a creative photographer who enjoyed capturing the finer details. We are both really pleased with the photographs and would highly recommend him to other brides and grooms!
I am a music teacher and music is very important to both of us. We had lots of friends who offered to play for us throughout the day. During the ceremony we had a string quartet which included two of my work colleagues. In the drinks reception another work colleague played the piano. In the evening we hired the Danny Maddocks Band who played a mixture of pop, rock and mo-town songs. They had everyone dancing all night long. Our first dance was 'Got to get you into my life' by the Beatles and two of our friends and wedding guests got up to play the horn parts which made it extra special.
There were so many special moments but the two that stand out are during the wedding breakfast, Neil and I were chatting to each other at the top table watching our guests eating their food, chatting and laughing, our favourite music was playing and the room was lit by candlelight. It's such a rare thing to have all of your family and friends together in the same room at the same time and knowing they were there for us was quite overwhelming. Our other favourite moment was stepping out of church together holding hands as man and wife into the glorious sunshine.

Its holiday season here on the blog, and as the editorial team take a break to redesign, review and recharge, we'll be leaving you with a reduced blogging schedule so that you still get your daily dose of wedding lovely.
Usual service will recommence on Monday 7th July 2014, but in the meantime watch out for recaps of our favourite Real Weddings so far this year. Drop in every day for the very prettiest, most unique wedding inspiration and – if you are a Brides Up North bride – to see if your Real Wedding was one of our top picks.
Katie and Guy's Real Wedding is my kind of affair. Classy, beautiful and elegant – with lots of pretty pale pinks, lace accents and seasonal touches. This clever couple did things their own way, choosing to keep their stunning celebration simple and hassle free, letting their gorgeous venue and floral accents speak for themselves. Beautifully done.
With images by Jill Thorning-Jensen.
Katie says: Guy proposed on the first day of our ski holiday in Zermatt in February 2013, and we were married on 21st December 2013 (I was not the most patient of brides)!
We were married at St Mary's Church in Whitewell, Shropshire followed by a reception at Iscoyd Park.
We looked at a number of venues around Cheshire and Shropshire, but fell in love with Iscoyd. The house and grounds are absolutely stunning – like no other venue we had seen. To add to that, Phil and the team at Iscoyd were so warm and friendly that we felt very comfortable that they would help make the day special.
I stayed at Willington Lodge the night before the wedding, a gorgeous local B&B with delightful hosts.
As the wedding was so close to Christmas we had a few festive touches (Christmas trees outside the church, and reindeer table names). The bridesmaids looked gorgeous in dark navy and the flowers were lilacy pinks with eucalyptus and dark navy berries to add a wintery feel.
I was determined that the wedding was going to be a stress-free event, so we purposefully kept any additions to a minimum. Instead we chose a beautiful venue (which needed no 'extras'), with lots of lovely food and drink and a fantastic band who had everyone up and dancing.
I tried on lots of dresses at the gorgeous Love Bridal Boutique in Altrincham, and chose an Intuzuri dress which I wore with a cathedral veil.
The groom wore a Reiss suit and the groomsmen wore their own navy suits. All had knitted navy ties which matched the groom's knitted navy bow tie.
The adult bridesmaids wore three quarter sleeve black tops with beautiful navy skirts designed and made by one of my bridesmaids and her exceptionally talented mum. The little bridesmaids wore ivory dresses from John Lewis.
Hair was by Louise Huxley (and her mum!) and makeup was by Melanie Poutney. We were very lucky to find a group of amazing people to help with the wedding, all of whom were a pleasure to have around on the day.
Selina Godsal did all the flowers for us. My bouquet was blush pink and cream roses, eucalyptus, a thistle (to match Guy's buttonhole) and catkins.
We chose a vintage cream taxi from Manor Bridal Cars. Not only was the taxi a great choice for the December weather, it also made my Mum smile – she had been very concerned that I hadn't booked a car until the last minute and we would end up having to get a taxi to the church!
The whole day was fabulous, but I think one of the most special parts was being in church. Seeing Guy waiting at the front looking so handsome was just lovely, and to be surrounded by all of our family and friends took my breath away.
Our cake was made by Caroline Black. We had three separate tiers (fruit, chocolate and ginger) and all of it was eaten by the end of the night! Other catering was by The Fine Dining Company.
In the evening we had a band, The Badcats, who were fab and had everyone dancing.
For our honeymoon we spent three weeks touring around Australia, seeing as much as possible and enjoying the sunshine.
For me, my top tip for other Brides Up North would be don't try to do too much. There is an awful lot to organise just concentrating on the basics, without adding in chocolate fountains and all the other extras. Being calm in the run up to the wedding meant that we could relax and enjoy every minute of the run up and the big day.
Congratulations Katie & Guy!

The turn of the year seems so long ago now doesn't it? After being deluged by storms and darkness, if anyone's kept their New Year's resolutions by now, it'll be a small miracle, right?
Well, funnily enough though, for once I have, so allow me a moment of smug! Mine were simple – stress less, exercise more and prioritise the things (and folk) I love most. So far I'm on the right track. How are you checking in? March is a new month after all…
Two people who are sure to have kept their resolutions and promises are today's beautiful bride Amy and her new husband Anthony, who said their vows in front of friends and family in Hexham on New Year's Eve. This morning they are here to share their celebration with us.
With images by Paul Santos Photography.
Amy says: We got engaged on March 29th 2012, we had just been on a ride on the gondolas in Venice when Anthony popped the question.
We were married on December 31st 2013. We had the most fantastic ceremony held at Hexham Abbey with a reception at Langley Castle.
We chose our venues based on the history and style of buildings. We had wanted a very grand wedding with it being New Year's Eve and wanted a day for everyone to remember.
Hexham Abbey was chosen to hold our ceremony as the religious side of things was taken very seriously at the Abbey making the day very personal, but it was also set in one of the most beautiful churches we have visited in the North East. Langley Castle gave us another grand and elegant building to host our reception and it had such good reviews from previous brides and grooms. The entrance to the castle was a main selling point.
We didn't have a theme, we just wanted to create a day to remember. Most people are at a loose end on New Year's Eve so we wanted to celebrate the date in locations that people would remember for years to come.
We chose a colour scheme of black, red and ivory. Red was to tie in with the colours of the castle and blacks were to bring in a classic look to go with New Year's Eve.
After nearly a year of hunting I finally found a dress that was different to anything I had seen. I went for a fish tail style lace overlay dress designed by Justin Alexander and by one of his private labels so I knew it would be very unlikely that others would have seen this dress. As it is sold only in limited shops across the UK and can't be viewed on his website, it gave me the exclusive look I had desired. I got my dress from Wild Brides At Heart in Durham City Centre.
My bridesmaids wore one shoulder Dessy dresses purchased from Isabelles Brides in Easington. I wanted a classic look to go with the style of wedding and we wanted our maid of honour and best man to stand out so they wore claret red whilst the rest of the groomsmen and bridesmaids wore black. The men wore French Connection evening suits with dicky bow ties for a classic evening look.
My flowers were put together by Wild and Wonderful Flowers and consisted of deep red roses, black berries and ivory roses to blend in with the colour theme.
I travelled in a Rolls Royce provided by Webbs Special Occasion Cars, and the guests were transported to on a 1900 Routemaster London bus from Henry Cooper Coaches, Northumberland.
My favourite part of the day was our ceremony. It was so meaningful and very touching. To add an extra special touch, during the signing of the register we had a recently signed professional opera singer performing which made the ceremony so elegant.
Our wedding cake was kindly made by Anthony's auntie who makes cakes in her spare time.
We chose Gary James who performs swing and Michael Buble numbers for our entertainment. Gary sang throughout the meal which was a great touch as it took away the clattering of knifes and forks and helped the meal run even more smoothly. In the evening we had an acoustic singer called Alex Dobson who put his own spin on various new releases by bands and singers, before going into a traditional disco on the evening.
Following the wedding we jetted off on honeymoon to Lucea, Jamaica.
My top tip for other Brides Up North would be that before booking any suppliers do your research and never book based on price alone. To ensure quality and value for money we sometimes had to bend our budget, but by doing this we got some of the best suppliers out there who had amazing reviews. Always read reviews before booking!
Congratulations Amy & Anthony!

Yes, that really is today's bride and groom's married name – Mr & Mrs Perfect. Don't you love it. No pressure or anything..! Anyway, it turns out that their gorgeous Real Wedding in Manchester was pretty much that – a chic and simple and prettily perfect winter city wedding.
With images by Stella Photography.
Gemma says: Nigel asked me to marry him on 1st December 2012, on Llanmadoc beach in Wales, on a weekend away. It was a beautiful isolated beach on a lovely crisp winter's day.
We were married on 23rd November 2013. We had the ceremony at Manchester Town Hall, and the reception at The Place Apartment Hotel, a converted cotton warehouse in central Manchester.
We wanted everything to be indoors, firstly because it is Manchester, so it was more than likely to rain, and secondly because of the time of year. We had looked at country locations, but decided that as we had so many guests coming not only from over this country but also from abroad, the city centre would be best for travel from the airport, train or the motorway. Also, we live very close to the city centre, so going in to see our wedding coordinator at the venue, and meeting local suppliers was so much easier than if we had picked somewhere far away. Manchester Town Hall is a stunning old building, with high stained glass windows so we felt it added to the occasion. The Place is beautifully restored, maintaining many original features such as red brick walls and steel columns.
Our theme was simplicity. The venue for the reception made it seem urban chic and we also teamed this with a vintage feel with the flower displays – very natural, in small glass bottles and jars – and hand-tied favours with luggage tag labels.
The wedding was mainly white and ivory, however my husband had decided that he wanted to wear his kilt, in the family tradition, so I picked a dark forest green for the bridesmaids to match this.
My dress was from The Staite Rooms in Huddersfield. It was a Maggie Sottero gown (Geneva), fitted to the waist and slightly over the hips, and had a long train. The top layer was a delicate lace with floral adornments, and a a band in light mocha under the bust, which made it look quite different to any I had seen before. I loved my long train! The dress was strapless which I didn't think I would like when trying on dresses, but it fit beautifully with a lace-up back.
My bridesmaids wore full length forest green chiffon dresses from Fairytale Occasions in Bury. The groomsmen wore kilts in a similar style to my husband, our fathers wore black suits to match the kilt jackets. These were all hired from Slaters.
I had a fantastic hair & makeup artist come to make up myself, my bridesmaids, my mother and mother-in-law at the hotel, Jodie Smith, also based in Manchester.

Things are looking really rosy red this week on Brides Up North aren't they? First up, the sun baked celebration of Annie and Lee yesterday, and now a complete about turn with today's stunning winter Real Wedding. Shot by Hayley Baxter Photography, Clare and Lee-John's big day had all the hallmarks of the perfect Christmas wedding – red berries, a feather cape, a dress to die for, Christmas pudding, a ruby red carriage and a partridge in a pear tree!
Clare says: We got engaged on 16 August 2013, in North Wales and were married on 21 December 2013 at Norcliffe Chapel, Styal with our reception at Quarry Bank Mill.
We visited the National Trust village and Mill in June 2013 and both absolutely loved the church and the imposing architecture of the Mill itself. Mandi and her team at the Mill were so helpful and were happy to assist in any way possible.
We chose a Christmas theme, we sang carols in the church and had mulled wine and mince pies at the drinks reception instead of canapés. We decorated the Mill ourselves with fairy lights, Christmas garlands and Christmas trees, including edible decorations and a gingerbread house. The table centres were hurricane vases with candles, holly, ivy, cinnamon, pine – all natural flowers and seasonal.
The colours were dark green and red. The green was chosen to incorporate the Bride's Irish roots and the red for the groom's Welsh roots. The bridesmaids wore dark green and the groomsmen all wore red ties and hankies. The bouquets were gorgeous red and green with grand prix roses for the bride and tulips for the bridesmaids and flower girls.
My dress was called Hazel by Anoushka G. I love it! I bought it from Lace Bridal in Hale who were so helpful. I am not a keen shopper and had given myself one day and two bridal shops to find my dream dress – I didn't have to search for long… it was the first dress I tried on and it could not be matched! It was cut on the bias with mini capped embroidered sleeves with a cowl scoop at the back.
I had an oyster feather shrug to keep me warm too. I wore my wellies into the church as the path down was muddy and I didn't want to spoil my Jimmy Choos!
Flossy & Leigh made all the bridal party's hair and make up look fabulous and I wore a bespoke hair piece designed by Ann McKaveney of Eleventh Heaven.
My two adult bridesmaids wore a dark green maxi dress from Coast and the three flower girls wore gorgeous white dressed from Debenhams. They all had gorgeous fur shrugs for warmth and the two littlest flower girls wore White Uggs boots.
The groomsmen wore hired suits from Slaters in Manchester. They were dark grey tails with waistcoat and their own classic white shirts with bright red ties and hankies.
We hired a beautiful red and cream vintage car supplied by Love & Carriage.

Today's stunning winter bridal inspiration shoot – sent to me by friend of the wedding blog Julie Lomax Photography is part of a larger set of images – but my edit has been specifically chosen to reflect the beauty and elegance of white on white winter wedding styling. With her dark pixie cut and bright blue eyes (and that pop of sparkling red) our fur hooded model reminds me of Disney's snow white, and maybe that's why I find today's feature especially magical.

It's been a while since we ran our last High Street Honey series here on Brides Up North (mainly since pulling the editorial together was an unhealthy online shopping enabler), but – especially as we approach the festive season – I think it's high time that we reinstate this popular feature.
I'll be checking out all the most popular High Street retailers (and lesser known online finds too) and picking our favourite looks, so that you don't have to. No gorgeous gowns get past me! Whether it's bridesmaids dresses you need, a frock for your reception dinner or heading off on honeymoon, we'll have it covered.
This week, I've been browsing the online aisles at fashion forward favourite New Look who contacted me recently to show off their sparkly sequin dresses, evening party dresses and prom dresses, with sartorial options for a wedding guest or glitzy bridesmaid (see this beautiful Real Wedding for inspiration) in mind. And since it's the festive season, these wouldn't go amiss at your Christmas do either. See what I do for you!
1 Gold Sequin 3/4 Sleeve Bodycon Dress £39.99
2 Navy Sequin Floral Bodycon Lace Dress £27.99
3 Belle Heart Black Sequin Side Panel Pleated Dress £22.99
4 Tokyo Doll Gold Strappy Sequin Contrast Cami Dress £27.99
5 Gold Sequin Sleeveless Bodycon Dress £24.99
6 AX Paris Navy Sequin Plunge Maxi Dress £60.00
7 Parisian Gold Floral Sequin Skater Dress £34.99
8 AX Paris Bronze Lace Midi Dress £35.00
Finding the perfect outfit to wear to a wedding can be a bit of a challenge. There are many factors to consider when choosing what frock (or trouser suit, or shorts suit, or separates!), from the location of the ceremony and the reception to the time of day and season in which the event will be held.
Even in winter, guests have more flexibility with a daytime wedding ands can wear shorter, above-the knee length dresses to create a more casual look. Have some fun experimenting with vibrant colours and punchy patterns as much as possible. For the autumn/ winter season, haute hues on Pantone's Fashion Colour Report include samba red, koi orange, vivacious magenta, acai purple, and Mykonos blue. Patterns that are sure to pop this season range from dainty oriental butterflies and flower prints to fierce tribal and animal patterns. If you decide to wear brighter hues or eye-catching prints, be sure to pair them with neutral bags and shoes to balance out the look, and don't forget a pretty shrug or jacket to keep of the chill.
1 Red Metallic Ruched Side Bodycon Dress £24.99
2 AX Paris Black Floral Print Midi Dress £28.00
3 Tokyo Doll Burgundy Metallic Grid Shoulder Midi Dress £27.99
4 Burgundy Lace Cap Sleeve Midi Dress £22.99
5 AX Paris Red Crochet Neck Midi Dress £30.00
6 AX Paris Purple Crochet Waist Midi Dress £28.00
7 AX Paris Purple Raglan Bodycon Dress £22.00
8 Dark Red One Shoulder High Neck Aztec Dress £19.99
If the wedding is being held in the evening, skip the flirty frock in favour of something more sophisticated like a curve-hugging bodycon dress or midi dress in emerald green, gold or midnight blue. You can amp up the wow factor with crocodile and snakeskin print clutches, bags and heels that incorporate the current colour blocking trend or (my favourite) plenty of sequins.
Now, where's my credit card…

Citrus Dry-Rubbed Ribs Recipe
Jan 12, 2012 4:01 pm
A citrus spin on the Beale Street classic
Photo: Sam Horine
At farm-to-table temple Dressing Room in Westport, CT this citrus dry-rubbed ribs recipe is a zippy spin on Memphis dry-rubbed ribs is prepared with a nice amount of lemon zest and fresh chives—a culinary move not likely to be found on Beale Street.
Servings: 2
1 full rack baby back ribs, cut into four smaller portions
2 cups chicken or ham hock stock
3 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest
3 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
- Prepare a gas or charcoal grill for indirect cooking. For a gas grill, this means to turn one side of burners on high and the other on medium. For a charcoal grill, arrange the hardwood charcoal on one side of the grill so that the ribs can be cooked over both hotter and cooler parts of the grill. Light the coals and allow them to become white-hot.
- Let the ribs sit on the counter until they reach room temperature. Baste them with the stock and put them on the hot side of the grill and sear for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until they begin to turn brown.
- Move the ribs to the cooler side of the grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Turn, baste with more stock, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Repeat this turning, basting, and seasoning for about 1 to 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until the ribs begin to sag off the ribs when you pick them up to turn. At this point you will have to treat them more carefully because of the softening meat. The goal is to glaze the ribs with the ham hock stock while equalizing the smokiness from the coals with the saltiness of the ribs.
- To serve, garnish with lemon zest and fresh chives.

6 Bands No One Noticed Broke Up
By Corey Deiterman
Whenever alt-country chanteuse Neko Case releases a new record, it's natural to wonder if the next album will measure up to the nearly flawless body of work that preceded it. There are very few musicians out there who've never released a clunker, and for years, Case has been part of that elite group. With every record, she has managed to cover different lyrical and sonic terrain — from the honky-tonk country of debut album The Virginian to the soulful gospel-pop of 2006's Fox Confessor Brings the Flood — with finesse and precision. But with this year's Middle Cyclone, Case seems to have faltered for the very first time in her distinguished career. At its very weakest, Case's music is still a delight, but there's no denying that Middle Cyclone borrows many of the same ideas — and even a few similar melodies — from songs she's written before. Repetitive choruses and monotonous melodies plague the record's weakest tracks. And yet, Case's voice soars above and beyond any of those shortcomings, striking doubters down like the hand of God smiting the wicked.

Are Regrets and "What Ifs" Ruining Your Relationship?
When life gets stressful, it can make you think twice about how things could have been differentbut too much questioning can turn toxic. Here's how to break the pattern.
By Brie Schwartz
Move forward
When your brain is stuck in the gear of regret, it's like a car caught in reverse. You literally can't go forward until you shift. Sometimes you need to rotate backward for a bit to get yourself out of the mud, but once you've dislodged your tires from all of that dirt, it's time to return to first gear. "Regret does nothing but hold you back and keep you from the love you deserve," says Kailen Rosenberg, author of Real Love, Right Now. "Without it, you are able to see all of the gifts and the beauty around you, which brings a newfound sense of awareness into the relationship you already have." Only then can you start looking ahead to where all of the great possibilities in your lifelong road trip lie.

ROCKFORD — Benedictine University will be ready to accept students as soon as April 1 at its satellite campus, which opened downtown last week.
The Benedictine University Rockford Learning Center, is on the third floor of Rockford Housing Authority main office, 223 Winnebago St.
Benedictine serves more than 8,000 students at its main campus in Lisle and through its satellite facilities in Bellwood, Naperville, Peoria, Springfield and now Rockford.
"We're so excited to bring something to the community," said Michelle Koppitz, contract director for the adult accelerated learning team programs. "We want to make a commitment to Rockford."
For now, the Rockford site includes one classroom, but may grow to two classrooms if needed. It'll start as a three-person office with two enrollment counselors and one person working the business angle of the campus, Koppitz said.
The college has already enrolled more than 20 students in the Rockford area for its field-based education master's degree in reading and literacy.
Those students — some teachers from Belvidere, Rockford, Kane County and Elgin, Koppitz said — meet one night a week at Elgin Community College, and the rest of the coursework is completed online.
For education courses, Benedictine typically partners with local school districts and holds classes on their campuses because the location is more convenient for teachers enrolled in Benedictine, Koppitz said. The students were willing to be flexible until the site was finalized, she said.
Benedictine officials are still in talks with local school districts to see what their needs are, she said.
"It's too soon to say we've formed a partnership," she said.
Benedictine also offers a 15-month education master's degree in leadership and administration, plus a nine-month English as a second language endorsement.
In May, Benedictine plans to offer an associate degree in business administration, a bachelor's in management and a master's in business administration. The college needs 14 students to enroll before it can move forward. Courses can be offered at the Rockford site as soon as that core group of 14 enrolls.
Course enrollment begins April 1, and college officials are planning an open house for the new site in early April.
"We're thrilled to bring adult accelerated programs to the Rockford community and hopefully be part of a positive change there," Koppitz said.
Rockford is already home to several satellite campuses, such as Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Judson University, Rasmussen College and Upper Iowa University.
"It just means there's more opportunity for people to be successful in earning their degree," Koppitz said. "We hope we meet the needs of a lot of people in Rockford."
The more satellite campuses, the more options students have when considering the best way for them to earn a higher degree, said Rena Cotsones, assistant vice president for regional engagement at Northern Illinois University in Rockford.
"The higher education landscape is certainly changing," she said. "We're focused on what we offer as the region's four-year public institution."
Rockford residents have dozens of institutions to choose from, whether they're brick and mortar, a satellite campus or online provider, said Robert Head, president of Rockford College.
Adding another brick and mortar campus won't make a big difference to the Higher Education Alliance for the Rock River Region, Head said, because they each fill different needs. Rockford College, Rock Valley College, Northern Illinois University and the University of Illinois College of Medicine are all HEARRR members.
Satellite campuses are niche players that come to serve a specific population or offer courses in a specific subject area, Head said.
"There are plenty of students here for all of us," he said.

Would Jesus Occupy Wall Street?
A common technique for opinion writers is to pose a question in the title of their articles, and then spoon-feed the answer to their readers. This isn't one of those articles. I ask the question of whether Jesus would be on the streets with the Occupy Wall Street protestors because:
First, a disclaimer. I realize the question What-Would-Jesus-Do is a controversial one. Not everybody accepts the premise that we can know with certainty what Jesus would do in hypothetical situations today.
It's also true that each of us is unique. The way that Jesus might live his life through one person might be different from how he might live his life through another. Still, as followers of Jesus, I think it helps from time to time to evaluate our actions based on the model of Jesus.
The best way to tackle the question of what would Jesus do is to ask what did Jesus do.
And that's where things get tricky.
An argument for why Jesus might be out on the streets today joining the protesters is that Jesus was an activist for the poor in his day. When Jesus cleansed the temple, he wasn't merely performing a religious act. The cleansing of the temple was highly political. The temple was the seat of religious, economic, and political power for Jews in Jesus' day. Jesus was mad as hell at the fleecing of the poor by the moneychangers and the exclusion of the Gentiles (read: economic injustice and institutionalized racism).
Had newspapers been around back then, Jesus would have landed on the front page of the Jerusalem Times, and the editorialists would have lambasted him for disorderly conduct. Jesus literally threw people out of the temple, destroyed tables, and prevented people from carrying goods through the temple (Mark 11: 15-16).
What would Fox News and CNN call that today? At the very least, they would label him an activist, or probably something worse.
Then there's Zacchaeus.
First century Jews would have thought of Zacchaeus in much the same way as a lot of people today think of Wall Street executives and hedge fund managers.
Zacchaeus was a chief among the tax collectors, and a very rich man. He obtained his wealth by collaborating with the imperialist Roman occupiers at the expense of his own people. He benefited from a system that lavished an exorbitant amount of wealth on a few at the expense of everyone else.
And how did Jesus treat him? Jesus never camped outside his office in an effort to shame him. Instead Jesus invited himself over to Zaccheus' house for dinner.
By extending his hand of friendship to Zacchaeus, Jesus did the opposite of what the crowd wanted him to do. The crowd couldn't get over the fact that Jesus was going to eat in the home of "a sinner." They were so focused on Zacchaeus's sins, they forgot that they were sinners too.
As I read the blogs and watch the news about what's happening in New York and around the country, I can't help but wonder: If Jesus were walking the streets of New York today, would he be a rabble-rouser activist like he was at the temple, or would he walk up to the CEO of Goldman Sachs and give him a hug?
I don't see how a person can be an angry activist and a friend of aristocrats at the same time, but that's just me. Regardless of where you land on this matter, here's a sentiment I think we can all agree with:
Just when I think I have Jesus figured out, he throws another curve ball.

MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Two Wisconsin children are recovering after being shot inside a vehicle.
A 10-year-old boy and an 11-year-old girl suffered non-life-threatening injuries in the Milwaukee shooting Wednesday night.
Deputy Inspector Stephen Basting says the children were in a vehicle being driven by their mother. He says the mother drove them to a local hospital and they are expected to be released soon.
Basting says police are trying to determine if another person in the vehicle was the target of the shooting.

Tameka Foster Attorney to Usher: Did You Bang a Bridesmaid?by Hilton Hater at . Comments
Welcome to The Real Housewives of Amazing Six Packs.
In court once again this morning to testify in the custody hearing brought on by ex-wife Tameka Foster, Usher was grilled about an incident from a couple years ago when Foster reportedly spit on Usher and sort of threatened his life.
Did Usher provoke this attack by cursing off his ex? No, the artist insisted over and over against allegations made by the attorney.
From there, meanwhile, things got really weird, as the same lawyer questioned Usher about his relationship with Maya Fox Davis, one of Tameka's bridesmaids from their wedding. She asked if the singer was caught "in bed" with Davis, at which point his attorney objected, claiming irrelevancy to the custody case.
Usher, to his credit, handled himself as well on the stand as he handles himself on the dance floor, remaining calm and under control, with the exception of yesterday's tears.
The trial is now in recess and will continue in July.
Get your boys from that crazy woman you are to good an she is crazy
As the scorpion said, as he was drowning, it's in his nature.
This was a train wreck waiting to happen. I know that the heart wants what it want, however, this woman had a bad track record. She looks greasy. She was a stylish yet she looked all out of style. I have never seen a picture of her with a good professional weave. Not even "AFTER" she married Usher. It has been reported that Ushers mother tried to warn him. I remember it was reported his Mom refused to come to the wedding or some drama like that. If that is true, it is because your Mother can smell a HO like a bloodhound. Some women make a career out of having kids by artist so they can attain status in life. Like Kim Porter,(P diddy's mattress) she is shameless!
I really hate that USHER got involved with this lady she was TOO OLD FOR him anyway and I personally think she took advantage of him no wonder his mom did not want her with Usher. I really feel for Usher this woman is crazy and was never "good enough for him. She only had those two babies to keep control over usher cos she knew once he got from under her spell he would find away to get away from her. makes me wonder "what she had on him"...Good Luck USHER AND GOD BLESS YOU..

After a fuel pump or something went out that led to the cancellation of the inaugural day of research, I was invited back on Saturday. It was to be the 600th day on the water over 12 years in Hawaii for Cascadia Research. In the intervening 10 days, the team had spotted, gathered tissue samples and photo-identified numerous individuals from several groups of rough-toothed dolphins. They'd also encountered their largest group of bottlenose dolphins in Hawaii—200 individuals. The highlight of the trip thus far, though, had to be spending about an hour mingling with four killer whales.

on Wed 7/20/2011
On my volunteer days at Kilauea Point National Wildlife Refuge during the summer, I am often asked, "When do the whales come back?" What people really mean is, "When are the humpback whales in Hawaiian waters?" And the answer to that question is November through April. But there are more than just humpback whales in Hawaii.

on Sat 5/21/2011
At exactly 3:53 p.m. at Kauai's Kilauea Point National Wildlife Refuge on Friday, May 20, I heard a woman's voice exclaim, "There's a spinner dolphin." I remember thinking that I hadn't see any earlier in the sandy-bottomed waters off Kauapea Beach. Maybe, I thought--it's really amazing how fast thoughts can whiz through your mind--maybe it's a pod coming from the bay around the point--Kalihiwai--and headed out to sea for a night of foraging. I've seen them rest there during the day before, too.

We boarded a Trilogy's Elua catamaran on the sandy shores of Kaanapali, Maui at 4:00 on a hot February afternoon, as a Kona system from the south evaporated Hawaii's cooling trade winds and vog from Hawaii (Big) Island's Kilauea volcano settled on the islands of Lanai and Molokai to our west. February is known for pretty much one thing in Maui: Whales. Just three days before a whole day was dedicated to the celebration of whales in Kihei, complete with a Parade of Whales, Run for the Whales, Hawaiian music concert, "Made on Maui" market, food--lots and lots of food—and more.

Yesterday, I walked from one side of Waikiki to the other, from Outrigger Reef on the Beach and nearly to the Honolulu Zoo. I walked out of the sunshine and into a fluorescent room to sit on a straight-backed chair for eight hours. I listened to real scientists toss around phrases like foraging ecology, protozoal threats, cestode egg presence, Allee effects and genetic stock structure. All in an effort to suss out the best way to reverse the downward population trend of endangered Hawaiian monk seals.

Sonoma police were called to the 7-11 store on West Napa Street a week-and-a-half before Christmas, after an angry intruder was reported behaving aggressively while "hissing" at customers and threatening them.
When officers arrived, they determined that the best way to subdue and corral the suspect would be with a large net and a cage.
A brave officer then confronted the anti-social aggressor and managed to get the net over its body, thereby subduing the large black swan. The red-beaked bird was apparently domesticated because its wings appeared to have been clipped and it couldn't fly.
There were no injuries reported in the avian encounter and the bird was released to the custody of a rural resident with sufficient secure housing.
No charges were filed and no information was available from what coop the bird had – so to speak – flown.
In other incidents reported to Valley law enforcement:
Sunday, Dec. 8:
1:07 a.m. – Long delays but still booked for DUI. A 67-year old Sonoma Valley attorney spotted making an illegal U-turn on Broadway was pulled over by Sonoma police who, officers reported, admitted he had consumed some alcohol, denied he was drunk, and subsequently gave "long-winded" and not entirely cooperative answers to questions about his recent consumption of alcoholic beverages.
Asked twice to exit his car, the man recited a litany of prior sports injuries to his ankles and knees, along with a variety of health issues. Finally agreeing to leave the vehicle, the man was unsteady on his feat and was "not successful," according to the police report, in performing field sobriety tests, even though the tests were modified to accommodate the man's alleged disabilities, police reported.
Compounding the circumstantial evidence was the presence of an empty cup on the floor of his car that the arresting officer had observed him pouring out the door of his car before the stop.
Additionally he was found to have a 10th bottle of whiskey in his pocket.
Police attempted to administer a blood-alcohol breath test, but the man provided only short, weak, inconsistent breaths, and police reported he appeared to be pretending to blow.
Taken to Sonoma Valley Hospital for a blood test after the breath test failed, the man then refused to allow a blood draw for "fear of contracting HIV."
Told that he would lose his driver's license if he did not submit to a blood alcohol test, the attorney nevertheless refused, while making several notes and taking the names of medical staff, preparatory, he said, to filing a lawsuit.
The man was escorted to the County jail where he was booked for DUI.
Thursday, Dec. 19:
10:36 a.m. – $30 ID theft. A Boyes Hot Springs resident discovered that her debit card had been compromised, despite the fact it had never left her possession, and that someone charged $30 on the card at a convenience store in Santa Rosa.
6:08 p.m. – Smash window, threaten wife, go to jail. Deputies were sent to a residence in the 2600 block of Fremont Drive on the report of domestic violence. A husband and wife had been arguing and the argument turned physical when the 39-year-old man broke out a window and threatened his wife with serious bodily harm. The wife fled the residence and deputies arrested the husband on charges of felony making threats and domestic battery and transported him to jail. The deputies also got an emergency protective order for the wife.
10:23 p.m. – DUI and assault twofer. Sonoma Police and Sheriff's deputies were advised of a suspected drunken driver in Sonoma, with the reporting party following the suspect and giving updated locations from their cellphone.
A deputy pulled the DUI suspect over at Napa Road near Fremont Drive after observing erratic driving. The driver, a 31-year-old Napa resident, was judged to be intoxicated and was taken into custody.
During the stop, the motorist's wife was visibly distraught and told deputies her husband had physically assaulted her just minutes before they pulled the couple over. In addition to the DUI, therefore, the man was also charged with misdemeanor domestic battery, and was taken to jail. Deputies arranged transportation to get the victim home.
11:10 p.m. – Boy-on-girl battery. Deputies responded to a domestic violence report in the 12000 block of Highway 12 in Glen Ellen, where a 26-year-old man was charged with misdemeanor domestic battery following a report of a physical altercation between him and his girlfriend.
Friday, Dec. 20:
6:08 p.m. – Dialing for domestic battery. Deputies were sent to a residence in the 10 block of Hawthorne Avenue following a report of domestic violence. An argument had turned physical and the female victim tried to call 9-1-1 while the 25-year-old male suspect attempted to take the phone away from her. During the ensuing struggle, the suspect hit the victim in the face. Deputies discovered the suspect was on probation and arrested him on charges of domestic battery, damaging a phone connection and a probation violation. He was booked into the county jail.
11:15 p.m. – No license, searchable probation, oxycodone, no Rx. During a traffic stop on Arnold Drive and Leveroni Road, Sheriff's deputies discovered the driver didn't have a license in his possession and that he was on searchable probation. During a subsequent search of the car, the deputies found a prescription bottle of oxycodone that didn't belong to the driver. The man admitted that he didn't have a prescription for the drug, and said a friend gave it to him. Paul Sutliff, 54, of Petaluma, was arrested on charges of felony possession of a controlled substance, felony possession of a prescription narcotic without a prescription and a probation violation. He was transported to jail.
Sunday, Dec. 22:
2:45 p.m. – Hash with a large knife. While on patrol in the vicinity of Main Street and Verano Avenue, a Sheriff's deputy spotted a skateboarder who was known to be on searchable probation. During a subsequent search, the deputy found a large, fixed-blade knife in the man's jacket, along with a small amount of hashish. The 37-year-old man was arrested on charges of misdemeanor possession of concentrated cannabis, possession of a dirk or dagger and a probation violation. He was transported to county jail.
Monday, Dec. 23:
9:30 a.m. – More meth, more jail. While on patrol in the 19000 block of Sonoma Highway, a Sheriff's deputy spotted a probationer in a parking lot. During a search, the deputy discovered that the 30-year-old man was carrying a glass pipe that contained methamphetamine residue. The man was arrested on charges of possession of drug paraphernalia and a probation violation, and was transported to the county jail.
2:42 p.m. – Public intox and meth too. A Cotati resident who was wandering around drunk at Maxwell Farms Regional Park ended up going to jail for more than just a public intoxication charge.
An alert citizen reported the man to the Sheriff's Office, and when deputies arrived to question him, the man gave a name that turned out not to be his. During a search of the suspect, deputies turned up a glass pipe and a plastic bag with 3.1 grams of what they suspected was methamphetamine.
After using a mobile fingerprint identification device, deputies discovered the man was Rigoberto Castillo, 32, of Cotati, who was on probation. Castillo was charged with felony possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, public intoxication, giving false identification and a probation violation, and was transported to the Sonoma County jail.

Dear Members,
Keep in mind that Character Bashing is now prohibited. Making fun of certain characters/character pairings leads to a pointless thread filled with insults and general rule breaking.
Also, remember that Versus threads are allowed only in the Versus section.
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff
Gaara (part one)
Neji (part one)
Gaara (Part 1) was a self-absorbed killing machine, monster really
idk why this is still debateble even...garra got this in the palm of his hands...lol
Orochimaru is on there twice
Itachi solos
if you say obito , you are trash just like him ... Datebayoo !
Why isn't sakura up there?
It depends on what way you mean it. For example nagato, sasuke and itachi could have been mentally unstable because of the things they went through but if you mean it mentally unstable up in an idiotic way then its gotta be obito. Seriously that guy is one of the most stupid characters I have seen in a while. If his past was more darker, like itachi's who had to killed his own clan or sasuke's then I would understand his reasons for being like this.
Orochimaru is so ****ed up he is already lost just like Madara and Obito ...But the sasuke right now has a clearer mind than the sasuke in chapter 573 and before he meets Itachi and fight against Kabuto he could been saved by Naruto
gara in part one, he didnt have any evil plan and didnt want revenge(well maybe his dad) he just liked killing people
Originally Posted by COLONELJJ81

Well Shukaku was possessing him.. so....
Seeing oro's name twice made me laughed. He does have alot of issues.
Should be? Probably kakashi
All time? Part 1 gaara
Current? Sasuke
Runner up? Obito
Biased opinion? Sakura

Is he retarded? Facing Juubi, Obito and Madara.. What the fûck is to be expected?
HAHAHAHAHA omg xD hilarious ^
not debatable Gaara part one the dude had no motive for killing ppl he just loved it how is that not mentally unstable
i would say jugo. that guy is just straight up crazy lol
Originally Posted by celebrei

didnt i already address that?
who do YOU think is the most mentally unstable celebrei? since you wanna do this lets do this....
Originally Posted by MinatoTheYellowFlash
Seriously could u blame sasuke?
And, it has to be Gaara, for real... he kills people to know he's alive. It gives him a purpose... It doesn't get more ****ed than that.
you got Orochimaru on the poll twice
Gaara(part 1)
1. Obito
2. Sasuke
3. Kabuto
Uhh... most definitely Gaara...
Obito? He's not mentally messed up... it's more of heartbreak and obsession really + a bunch of psychological events happening so quickly... ... . That doesn't sound right O.O excuse my grammar rofl.
Umm is everybody forgetting orochimaru was a model shinobi and was very kindhearted untill...lost his parents then he went ape shit and became what he is today I think thts why him and sasori became teamates cuz of their upbringing on losing parents and wanting to acquire a way to b immortal (to me they wanted to bring bac thief parents some way)
But anyways yes gaara does win this lml he was straight jacket lock up throw away the key straight jacket material
Orochimaru second tho

u stole my words
guys allow me to remind u that oro did expirements on 50 kids in order to achieve mokuton, which all but yamato died.

18th Nov: We've switched servers and will be updating the old code over the next couple months, meaning that several things might break. Please report issues here.
main index
An incomprehensibly bitter, angry, profane, surreal and hilarious political Web Comic by David Rees, composed entirely of clip-art and with the general emphasis being on the bubble text, which tends to come out as something like an Author Filibuster. It actually started under the title "Crumbly Comics" and chiefly dealt with the vagaries of corporate life/office work. These early, mostly apolitical strips are collected in the book My New Filing Technique is Unstoppable, a phrase which also gives Rees' site its URL, http://mnftiu.cc. The comic covered events from shortly after 9/11 to just after the end of the George W. Bush presidency, generally reflecting Rees' appalled and incensed reaction to much of the doings of the United States in this period, with the characters (such as they are - nobody is ever named) frequently expressing incredulity and generally acting as if they are trapped in their own personal hell. To say the series wore its bias on its sleeve would be a significant understatement.Rees has recently started a Sequel Series called Get Your Censor On, whose target is corporate attempts to censor and/or control the internet.

Detroit City Council to vote Tuesday on new Red Wings arena
Updated On: Feb 04 2014 10:53:34 AM EST
What the Ilitch family is looking at building is ambitious and expensive, very expensive.
It will require $450 million in taxpayer funds to build not just a new arena for the Detroit Red Wings, but an entire district in a vacant, rundown area. It also requires a land transfer from Detroit City Council.
Council's vote happens Tuesday morning.
WATCH LIVE NOW: Detroit City Council meeting
"This is not the be-all, end-all. This is an opportunity for us as Council to create a platform that can create jobs, both construction and post-construction," said Councilman Gabe Leland.
It has been a contentious process so far with concerns about costs, about jobs for Detroiters and other incentives for the city. After a lot of discussion, on Tuesday City Council will vote on giving the project the needed land to go ahead.
New Councilman Leland says it's going to be tight.
More: Where will money for new Red Wings arena come from?
"This is not the perfect deal but I'm excited about the opportunity and I see this going through tomorrow," he said.
