Yonder Journal: Sequoias & Swimming Holes
Strange tales and stranger places—Yonder Journal took their Sequoias and AWOLs to the Mythical State of Jefferson in pursuit of the lost swimming holes of Wiley Jeb.
There is a legend in the Mythical State of Jefferson that tells of an old-timer named Wiley Jeb. It's said that Wiley Jeb was a big time stockbroker in New York during the Roaring Twenties: top hats, Fitzgerald—the whole nine yards. But when things turned Steinbeck, Jeb found himself rotting in the Big Apple, kicked to the curb. He'd lost everything in the crash. His wife left him for an employed cabbie who could afford soup, his society club friends deserted him, even his dog no longer answered his calls. He defined "down and out." But one day, while he lay face down in the gutter willing his life to end, he noticed the street water cascading through a grate and into the sewers below. Watching a tiny twig spin slowly in the brackish gutter current, he had a vision. He imagined himself doing the same, floating blissfully in the primal embrace of a lazy watershed. This was his life's calling, to ingratiate himself into the arms of a welcoming river, to find a clean-running Eden, to float in meditative tranquility while welcoming spiritual and emotional transcendence.
From that day forward, he was on the hunt—bindle over his shoulder, bumming his way from state to state in search of the swimming hole he saw in his vision. North to south, and east to west, he scoured the countryside. For more than two decades, Jeb bummed across America. Of course, in this great nation, there are many fine swimming holes that tempted his fancy, but they all seemed lacking: too fast, too slow, too dirty, too clean, too hot, too cold, too many people, not enough beach. Wiley Jeb had his vision, and he was determined to manifest it.
Eventually his search led him to what is now the Shasta-Trinity National Forest in what should be known as the State of Jefferson. It was here that Wiley Jeb found his swimming hole Shangri-La. In the cool, clear waters of the North and South forks of the Salmon River, the Klamath River, the Trinity River, and the area's countless streams, creeks, brooks, lakes, ponds, and springs, Wiley Jeb found the paradise he was looking for. From that point forward, he spent his summers in these idyllic waters and his winters in a ramshackle cabin in the middle of the forest, soaking in a wood-fired hot tub he continually refreshed with the waters of a nearby river. 'Course there were other places in the states where you could float all year long, but Jeb was after quality not quantity. He spent so much time immersed in these rivers that folks said that if you stumbled upon him, he'd be naked as Adam and so wrinkled you thought he was a fat man with the air let out of him. As the MSOJ became more populated, sightings of Wiley Jeb were fewer and further between. No one knows exactly what happened to him, but most believe he just blended into the water, becoming one with the river and truly becoming his dream.
Yonder Journal heard of this legend from some old corn dogger—or maybe we read about it in a crumpled and torn journal in someone's attic? We don't rightly recall, but we believed in the legend and set out to find the magical swimming holes that called Wiley Jeb all the way across the country. But in order to do so, we needed a guide, a local not only familiar with the area but who had the power to divine its secrets. Fortunately, we've got a guy.
Mike Cherney is a wizard, alchemist, sage, and shredder who lives in Happy Camp and knows his way around the MSOJ. He's our friend and he agreed to guide us. In exchange, he asked that if we did find these mythical swimming holes, that we pay them respect by taking our time, lounging in them as much as possible, not moving on too fast—we were happy to oblige. An expedition of this magnitude and scope needs a strong team, so we called in a crack crew of corn doggers (corn dogging being the catchall phrase for swimming holing, camping, goofing, pit-stopping, and generally just enjoying the world in lieu of banging out 120 mile days). With our team assembled, we set out in mid-July on a four-day bicycle excursion. We equipped our Sequoias and AWOLs with all the necessary provisions: coffee, GORP, swim trunks, and... other stuff. We were prepared for anything; from slightly fast-moving water to completely still water, we had our bases covered.
Did we find Wiley Jeb's mythical swimming holes, did we bathe in their waters, lounge on their beaches, and ride miles upon miles of singletrack to get there? Yes. Yes we did. For the full four-day account head over to Yonder Journal. But before you do, know that what you will see there will probably cause you to quit your job, grab your bike and your swimming costume, and hightail to the MSOJ.
Pizzas the size of pools, night ghouls, river floats—it's all here in Yonder Journal's latest adventure to the Appalachian Mountains of Virginia.
To swim or not to swim? That is the question. In Part II of Yonder Journal's Appalachian adventure, the crew call an audible on their route, opting for fun over torment. Will they find their ideal swim hole? You'll have to read to find out.
Haunted railroad tunnels, pristine gravel, and the eternal quest for pizza—expect this and more in the latest installment of Yonder Journal.

These are the slides that I used to do a presentation about using social media in distance education:
The British Council is proud to have been a part of the 1st International ELT Symposium for Yıldız Technical University.
Shona Whyte:
Gary Motteram talks in a 3-minute post-plenary interview about technology for teaching English.
He argues that technology is another tool, in the same way that a book is a tool, or a conversation is a tool. If we don't engage in conversation how do we learn language? We can learn via books, recordings, and conversation. Technology is another tool and people use social media to do similar things. You can connect classrooms and make things more real, but the tool is aiding and assisting the processes that are the fundamental issue: what we know about language and how people develop language and how we apply that in pedagogical contexts.
Regarding the downside of technology, getting learners to engage in a broader understanding of digital literacies is important. Terrible things happen on internet, it is part of our lives and children need to understand the dangers of the internet just as they need to cope with risks on the street.
To deal with teachers who are less confident with technology, it is necessary to start with what's available in teachers' contexts and show how a particular tool can bring something they are excited about into the classroom. Or show case studies of other teachers in similar contexts who think technology is important for their learners.

The Film Society of Lincoln Center announced the complete lineup for Open Roads: New Italian Cinema, taking place June 4-11. For 14 years, the series has proudly offered to North American audiences the most diverse and extensive lineup of contemporary Italian film available. This year's program strikes a satisfying balance between emerging talents and esteemed veterans—as well as (at least) one master: Ermanno Olmi, among the nation's leading lights for over half a century. As always, the series includes both commercial and independent fare, ranging from stage adaptations to biopics, warm human comedies to experimental dramas. Experience the best of Italian cinema today, with in-person appearances by many of the filmmakers, including Francesca Archibugi, Duccio Chiarini, Cristina Comencini, Roan Johnson, Mario Martone, MASBEDO, Ivano De Matteo, Lamberto Sanfelice, Gabriele Salvatores, and more.
"We're excited that Open Roads is returning with such a wide range of films and talent coming out of Italy today," says programmer Isa Cucinotta. "From genre films to experimental works, returning masters to new voices, the scope and talent of voices is unprecedented. Ermanno Olmi and Mario Martone present gorgeous period films, while newcomers Duccio Chiarini and Roan Johnson explore the tribulations of young adults in their hilarious comedies. And for families, there is The Invisible Boy, the newest superhero to arrive on screen!"
The festival is proud to host some of the best and most notable Italian films making waves at recent film festivals across the globe. Lamberto Sanfelice's promising first feature, Chlorine, which will be having its New York premiere, was recently nominated for the World Cinema Grand Jury Prize at Sundance. Ivano De Matteo's The Dinner won multiple prizes at last year's Venice Film Festival and will be making its North American premiere at Open Roads. The dark film, based on Dutch best seller by Herman Koch about two couples who learn that their teenage children are murderers, will be soon adapted into an English-language version directed by Cate Blanchett. Another North American premiere, Roan Johnson's dramedy about the lives of five friends at a crossroads, So Far So Good, won multiple prizes at the Rome International Film Festival, including the People's Choice Award for Best Italian Movie.
Other notable North American premieres include the haunting World War I meditation Greenery Will Bloom Again by 83-year-old master Ermanno Olmi, whom Film Comment recently called "one of cinema's greatest spiritual artists"; Veteran director Gabriele Salvatores's The Invisible Boy, a comic adventure tale with a sci-fi bent for all ages about a young teen with supernatural powers; The Lack, the latest experimental narrative film from Milanese contemporary video artists MASBEDO (Nicolò Massazza & Iacopo Bedogni); 9 x 10 Novanta, nine shorts made by 10 young Italian filmmakers (including NYFF52 writer-director of The Wonders, Alice Rohrwacher) to honor the Istituto Luce's 90th anniversary; and Sabina Guzzanti's The State-Mafia Pact, a hilarious hybrid political documentary starring the director as Silvio Berlusconi.
There will also be a photo exhibit organized by EVOL Design in the Freida and Roy Furman Gallery to celebrate one of Italy's most legendary film directors. Looking with Michelangelo Antonioni features Renato Zacchi's rare photographs of Antonioni taken during the shoot of one of his final documentaries Sicily (1997).
Open Roads: New Italian Cinema was programmed by Isa Cucinotta and Dennis Lim and organized by the Film Society of Lincoln Center and the Istituto Luce Cinecittà in collaboration with the Italian Cultural Institute of New York.

It's been 10 years since the passing of Saverio Crispo, Italy's most beloved movie star and most prolific ladies' man. He left behind five daughters, each from a different relationship in a different part of the world. To mark the anniversary of his passing, mothers and daughters alike gather in his hometown to piece together the puzzle of the man they've known only as an icon. The international cast of Latin Lover features Almodóvar veterans Candela Peña, Lluís Homar, and Marisa Paredes, and especially poignant turns from three-time David di Donatello winner Valeria Bruni Tedeschi (Human Capital) and the late Virna Lisi (Queen Margot) in her final screen appearance.

Italian with English subtitles
In honor of the Istituto Luce's 90th anniversary, 10 young Italian filmmakers (two working as a pair) completed nine 10-minute shorts using footage from its archives. As each director gives their personal spin on the past, their collective effort emphasizes the striking contrasts that comprise Italy's recent history: from wartime to peace, from ruins to reconstruction, and from Fascism's lost promised futures to the present day. Startling, moving, and, above all else, inventive, this omnibus reshapes and gives light to rare material unseen for decades. Includes a short by Alice Rohrwacher, writer-director of The Wonders (NYFF52). North American Premiere
Tuesday, June 9, 6:30pm
Chlorine / Cloro
Lamberto Sanfelice, Italy, 2015, DCP, 98m
Italian with English subtitles
Seventeen-year-old Jenny (Salvo's Sara Serraiocco) dreams of becoming a synchronized swimmer, but when her mother dies unexpectedly and her father suffers a nervous breakdown, she's forced to sacrifice her goals to keep the family together. Uprooting from the coastal town of Ostia to the mountains of Abruzzo, Jenny takes a job as a hotel maid, her salary going to support her father and 9-year-old brother. Co-starring Ivan Franek (The Great Beauty) as the ski-lift operator with whom she becomes romantically involved, the sensitive Chlorine was nominated for the World Cinema Grand Jury Prize at Sundance. New York Premiere
Sunday, June 7, 6:15pm (Q&A with Lamberto Sanfelice)
Tuesday, June 9, 4:15pm
The Dinner / I nostri ragazzi
Ivano De Matteo, Italy, 2014, DCP, 92m
Italian with English subtitles
Affectionate pediatrician Paolo (Luigi Lo Cascio) and businesslike lawyer Massimo (Alessandro Gassman) are brothers who seemingly enjoy all the trappings of bourgeois success, dutifully meeting once a month for dinner with their wives at an expensive restaurant despite the women's mutual dislike. However, when a security tape reveals that Paolo's son and Massimo's daughter have brutally beaten a homeless man into a coma, resentments boil to the surface. This adaptation of Herman Koch's best seller meticulously ratchets up the tension and brilliantly expands upon elements from the book, and the all-star cast (also featuring Giovanna Mezzogiorno and Barbora Bobulova) give unforgettable performances that linger long after the lights go up. Winner of four prizes at last year's Venice Film Festival. A Film Movement release. North American Premiere

Tuesday, June 9, 2:00pm
Greenery Will Bloom Again / Torneranno i prati
Ermanno Olmi, Italy, 2014, DCP, 80m
Italian with English subtitles
Throughout a six-decade career that spans masterpieces like Il Posto and The Tree of Wooden Clogs, Ermanno Olmi has earned the title "Poet of Silence." With measured pacing and sparse dialogue, Olmi crafts films that are hypnotizing in their patient alertness. At age 83, he turns his attention to the First World War. But instead of making a combat film, he chooses to capture a single snowy night on the Italian front, as soldiers burrowed in trenches confront their loneliness and find pockets of hope where they can. Reminiscent of Terrence Malick's The Thin Red Line in its ethereality and focus on inner thoughts, Olmi's haunting meditation features actual World War I footage and is dedicated to the director's father, who told him tales of the war as a child. North American Premiere
Saturday, June 6, 6:30pm
Monday, June 8, 4:00pm
The Ice Forest / La foresta di ghiaccio
Claudio Noce, Italy, 2014, DCP, 99m
Italian with English subtitles
When Pietro (Domenico Diele), a young repairman, journeys to an electrical station located in a remote village on the Italian-Slovenian border, he soon gets wrapped up in a mystery involving foul play, human trafficking, and his own past. Meanwhile, Lana (Ksenia Rappoport), a Slovenian investigator posing as a bear expert, struggles against the climate and the hardened ways of the men (including one played by Emir Kusturica) who live and work there to get to the truth. Shot with a swooping grace befitting its majestic Alpine setting, director Claudio Noce proves himself to be a master of suspense with this heart-pounding thriller. North American Premiere
Thursday, June 4, 3:30pm (Q&A with director Claudio Noce & actor Adriano Giannini)
Sunday, June 7, 3:30pm (Q&A with director Claudio Noce & actor Adriano Giannini)
The Invisible Boy / Il ragazzo invisibile
Gabriele Salvatores, Italy/France, 2014, DCP, 100m
Italian with English subtitles
Veteran director Gabriele Salvatores (I'm Not Scared) uses the superhero genre as a jumping-off point to reach the greater truths of adolescence, harkening back to 1980s adventure classics like The Goonies. Michele (Ludovico Girardello), who lives with his single mother (the superb Valeria Golino) in Trieste, is an unpopular kid who doesn't seem to be good at anything. Constantly bullied, he sees his lovely classmate Stella (Noa Zatta) as the only bright spot in his life. One day, Michele discovers that he has the ability to become invisible, and suddenly finds himself drawn into a series of increasingly strange events involving Russian children who also have supernatural powers. North American Premiere
Sunday, June 7, 1:00pm
Thursday, June 11, 2:30pm
An Italian Name / Il nome del figlio
Francesca Archibugi, Italy, 2015, DCP, 96m
Italian with English subtitles
The hit French farce What's in a Name?, released to great success in 2012, is transposed to Italy while retaining its crowd-pleasing core. David di Donatello Award winners Alessandro Gassman and Micaela Ramazzotti play Paolo and Simona, a glamorous couple with a child on the way. They invite another couple and a quirky musician friend to dinner, expecting a benignly pleasant evening, but things take a turn for the volatile when the issue of the child's name is broached. Featuring acclaimed international actor and director (of the festival favorite Honey) Valeria Golino, An Italian Name is an uproariously un-PC variation on Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?. North American Premiere
Saturday, June 6, 9:00pm (Q&A with Francesca Archibugi)
Tuesday, June 9, 8:45pm
The Lack
MASBEDO, Italy, 2014, DCP, 76m
In an attempt to bridge the gap between the worlds of video art and narrative filmmaking, Nicolò Massazza and Iacopo Bedogni (aka MASBEDO) have created The Lack, a radical, poetic work of pure cinema. Six women from six different countries—Eve (Lea Mornar), Xiu (Xin Wang), Anja (Giorgia Sinicorni), Nour (Ginevra Bulgari), Greta (Emanuela Villagrossi), and Sarah (Cinzia Brugnola)—navigate separate, barren Aeolean Islands by themselves. Working through their pasts, each of their journeys investigates the theme of a "lack," including one that overtly references Antonioni's L'Avventura. As visually dazzling as it is deeply emotional, MASBEDO's experiment is worth every second. North American Premiere
Thursday, June 4, 9:15pm (Q&A with MASBEDO)
Thursday, June 11, 4:45pm
Mario Martone, Italy, 2014, DCP, 144m
Italian with English subtitles
Writer-director Mario Martone (We Believed) again returns to the 19th century in this sensitive, exquisitely shot portrait of the cherished Italian poet Giacomo Leopardi. The son of a domineering count who prizes knowledge over all else, Giacomo (a brilliant Elio Germano) is locked away in a library to study. Yet Giacomo yearns to see the world, and his struggles with social and familial obligations color his Romantic writings about the human condition. When he is finally able to leave the family estate and becomes the toast of Florence's literary circles, ill health and poor finances stymie his happiness. Shot on the Leopardi estate!
Monday, June 8, 6:00pm
Wednesday, June 10, 1:00pm
Money Buddies / La buca
Daniele Ciprì, Italy/Switzerland, 2014, DCP, 90m
Italian with English subtitles
Better Call Saul, Italian-style! Veteran ambulance chaser Oscar (Sergio Castellitto) gets bitten by a dog and decides to make some cash by suing its owner. However, this turns out to be Armando (Rocco Papaleo), a penniless man just released from jail after 30 years for a crime he didn't commit, shunned by everyone—except his dog. Oscar sees the potential of getting millions in compensation from the state, and the two fifty-somethings team up in search of clues (along with the help of a friendly barista, played by Valeria Bruni Tedeschi). A timeless and fun buddy comedy shot on 35mm. North American Premiere
Thursday, June 4, 1:00pm
Saturday, June 6, 4:00pm
N-Capace / N-Able
Eleonora Danco, Italy, 2014, DCP, 80m
Italian with English subtitles
A sparklingly imaginative autobiographical story in the spirit of Fellini's 8 ½, playwright, director, and actress Eleonora Danco dons a toga to stage—and agonize over—key moments in her life, presenting them as theatrical tableaux. Shot in her seaside hometown of Terracina, Danco involves the townsfolk through interviews (reminiscent of Pasolini's Love Meetings) and by encouraging them to participate in the drama: people of all ages sing, dance, and wear masks of their younger selves. However, the most inventive and incisive scenes come from her interactions with her tight-lipped 83-year-old father, which, even at their lightest, belie a deep poignancy. North American Premiere
Friday, June 5, 1:30pm

Natural Resistance
Jonathan Nossiter, Italy/France, 2014, DCP, 86m
Italian with English subtitles
Liquid Memory: Why Wine Matters author and Mondovino director Jonathan Nossiter returns with a fresh look at small-scale Italian vintners who eschew pesticides and chemicals. Drawing parallels between organic wine farming and film restoration, Nossiter intersperses strong testimony from four farmers in their vineyards in Piedmont, Tuscany, and Emilia with clips from silent comedies and newsreels. Preserving centuries-old traditions in the face of globalization (and crooked politics), their stories of resistance and environmentalism prove a strong vintage. A must-see for any foodie, wannabe sommelier, or even the casual wine fan, who will be hard-pressed to not buy organic after watching. U.S. Premiere

Short Skin
Duccio Chiarini, Italy, 2014, DCP, 86m
Italian with English subtitles
In this endearing and hilarious coming-of-age tale, Edoardo (Matteo Creatini) has a congenital problem with his foreskin, and now at age 17, starts to feel the desire (and social pressure) to lose his virginity, either with his best friend Bianca (Francesca Agostini) or a bewitching singer in a band (Miriana Raschilla). Meanwhile, his family is wrapped up in sexual issues of their own: his parents are struggling with infidelities, and his little sister is obsessed with finding a mate for their dog. Never cloying or trivial, Duccio Chiarini's film manages to capture the true euphoric and tormented spirit of adolescence. North American Premiere

So Far So Good / Fino a qui tutto bene
Roan Johnson, Italy, 2014, DCP, 80m
Italian with English subtitles
Winner of multiple prizes at the Rome International Film Festival, including the People's Choice Award for Best Italian Movie, Roan Johnson's bittersweet dramedy So Far So Good explores three days in the lives of five friends at a crossroads. Living together as students, they've shared much more than an apartment—they've pooled their joys and sorrows, and come to depend on one another. But now their education is complete and these young men and women must go their own ways. Over one last weekend they face an uncertain future and the choices that will lead them on separate journeys. Johnson's perceptive character study (which he co-wrote) is sure to resonate with anyone who's faced the terrifying prospect of life outside a safe and protective cocoon. North American Premiere

The State-Mafia Pact / La trattativa
Sabina Guzzanti, Italy, 2014, DCP, 108m
Italian with English subtitles
Disgraced former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi is only the tip of the sleazy iceberg in this bombshell hybrid documentary, a detailed account of widespread government-mafia corruption. Both formally and factually engaging, this film by Sabina Guzzanti (Viva Zapatero!, Sympathy for the Lobster) was inspired by Elio Petri's Three Hypotheses on the Death of Giuseppe Pinelli. Talking-head interview subjects give evidence about the collaboration between officials and the Cosa Nostra during the early 1990s, and then reenact certain events with the help of a green screen. Guzzanti herself plays Berlusconi, hilariously nailing his bluster. North American Premiere

Practicing in the Appellate Courts is for the purpose of reviewing trial court judgments to correct of errors committed by the trial court, development of the law, achieve a uniform approach across courts, and the pursuit of justice, more generally. Appellate courts are not a forum to make a new case, but instead they determine if the rulings and judgment of the court below were made correctly.
Belzoni (pronounced Bell-zone-uh) is a city in Humphreys County, Mississippi, in the Mississippi Delta region, on the Yazoo River. The population was 2,663 at the 2000 census. It is the county seat of Humphreys County. It was named for the 19th century Italian archaeologist/explorer Giovanni Battista Belzoni. The area was named Farm-Raised Catfish Capital of the World in 1976 by then Governor Cliff Finch, since it produces more farm-raised catfish than any other U.S. county. 40,000 acres (160 km) of the county are underwater, used to grow catfish. About 60% of U.S. farm-raised catfish are grown within a 65 mile (100 km) radius of Belzoni. The title "Catfish Capital" is also claimed by Savannah, Tennessee and Des Allemands, Louisiana. Belzoni is known for the World Catfish Festival held every April.

Soldier Boy (Hardcover)
Soldier Boy begins with the story of Ricky Richard Anywar, abducted at age fourteen in 1989 to fight with Joseph Kony's rebel army in Uganda's decades-long civil war. Ricky is trained, armed, and forced to fight government soldiers alongside his brutal kidnappers, but never stops dreaming of escape.
The story continues twenty years later, with a fictionalized character named Samuel, representative of the thousands of child soldiers Ricky eventually helped rehabilitate as founder of the internationally acclaimed charity Friends of Orphans.
Working closely with Ricky himself, debut author Keely Hutton has written an eye-opening book about a boy's unbreakable spirit and indomitable courage in the face of unimaginable horror.
About the Author

Rehearsal Dinner Etiquette
Who pays?
Traditional rehearsal dinner etiquette dictates that the groom's parents foot the bill because it's the way for the groom's mother to show that she knows how to entertain, too. But as more and more couples choose to pay for their own wedding or share the expenses between both families, the bottom line is you get to decide who shoulders the awesome pre-wedding party responsibility. Remember, though, that whoever pays gets the last word on the details!
Who to invite?
Bridesmaids, groomsmen, ushers, flower girls and ring bearers (with their adult supervision, of course!), your officiant and other close family and friends form the traditional group, but cultural or religious factors may have an influence. In Jewish tradition, for example, it's customary for anyone invited to the wedding to be invited to the rehearsal dinner. The feeling is that they've flown out, they've given a gift, and they need to eat. End of story.
That said, you do have the right to invite who you want—or even to hold two kinds of events. While some etiquette purists say two events makes some guests feel excluded and awkward, more and more couples are now opting to have their dinner at a swanky restaurant with the usual close-knit crew, then meet up with more friends and out-of-towners later at the restaurant's bar for the pre-wedding toasts. If your budget precludes including every single wedding guest at the posh rehearsal dinner, send out a different invitation to those you can't host. It's all in how you word the invite: Simply ask this group of guests to arrive at a later time for the rehearsal "party." They'll probably never guess that the actual dinner has already happened, because they'll be too busy noshing on delicious tray-passed appetizers, cocktails and desserts!
When should I start planning my rehearsal dinner?
As soon as you can make the reservation, do it, but the general consensus is at least three to six months in advance of the date. By three months out, couples have a good idea how many guests will be attending and they can plan a menu that doesn't conflict with their wedding day. Consider scheduling your rehearsal dinner on a Thursday night if you're having a Saturday wedding. There's an excellent chance you'll reduce the cost of your rehearsal dinner, plus everyone can party as much as they want, sleep it off on Friday, and wake up for a wonderful wedding on Saturday.
What's a good rehearsal dinner venue?
There are so many great rehearsal dinner venues it's hard to pick one! Coordinators can help steer you in the right direction, but a favorite restaurant is always a good choice. Select a place that's close to your rehearsal site so that it's convenient for your guests, and make sure you've reserved a private room if you're going to break out the naked baby picture slides or karaoke machine. See our Search Tips for pointers on how to effectively search for rehearsal dinner restaurants and other venues on HereComesTheGuide.com.
I'm having cake at my reception. Should I have cake at the rehearsal dinner, too?
Not necessarily. The rehearsal dinner gives you a chance to sample other delightful alternatives. Love chocolate? Joyce Scardina Becker suggests an "All Things Chocolate" Dessert Station, with anything from spiced hot chocolate shots and warm chocolate macaroons to salt caramel ice cream pops dipped in milk chocolate. One coordinator even arranged to have a snow cone and cotton candy machine at a playful couple's pre-wedding event. Also, try to make the dessert complement the meal. For example, if you're serving a steak dinner, a lemon confection makes a light finishing touch. Chocolate works better after chicken or fish, and if the meal is very complicated go for a simple dessert of champagne sabayon, fresh berries and pound cake.
When do the rehearsal dinner invitations go out?
It's best to send them four weeks before the event and, of course, after the wedding invitation. You should never put the rehearsal dinner invite in with the wedding invite. Remember: Even though rehearsal dinners are a part of the wedding festivities, they really are two separate events. Elegant, formal invitations are perfect for the wedding, but feel free to express your creativity with color and thematic elements for the rehearsal dinner invites.

Maxine Waters Reclaiming Her Time Just Became Everyone's New Summer '17 Mantra
California Congresswoman Maxine Waters puts her foot down by reclaiming her time.
Wiz Khalifa responded to good and bad YouTube comments from his "We Dem Boyz" music video for Noisey's "The People Vs." series, where "true artists lower themselves to respond to comments made by the dregs of humanity," according to the site.
Khalifa gave a reaction to everything from his basketball skills in the video, to the actual quality of the song itself, and comments about his personality. One person quipped that the Taylor Gang star seems like the type to "cry while listening to Drake," to which he replied, "You obviously have some personal problems that you need to work out."
The 27-year-old admitted that he reads YouTube comments "from time to time," but he prefers the positive feedback. "I wish people would be more positive and show each other more respect and love," he said before explaining how to deal with hate.
"I pay attention to the love and when I see the negative stuff I kinda get a vision of exactly who that person is and what they look like, and immediately that opinion goes out of the window."

I hope not. (Fritz did some crazy things as a child. Also, I think she was better at entertaining all Fritz's exploits, where as I hand Noah's projects over to Fritz as much as possible.)

The brig Nancy was tied up for several days at GW's wharf at Mount Vernon in April 1773, and its captain, John Cox, dined at Mount Vernon every day from 5 to 9 April. It was probably at this time that Martha Washington placed her order for the items from Portugal.
1. The smallest Portuguese unit of money was the real (pl. réis). One thousand réis equaled a milréis.
2. This must be Cox's rendering of "arroba," an old Portuguese measure of weight which equaled about thirty-two pounds.
3. The alqueire was a varying measurement equal to about thirteen to fourteen liters.
4. The merchant William Milnor wrote GW from Philadelphia on 19 Oct.: "The several articles Capt. Cox left with me for Mrs Washington, I have ship'd on board of the sloop Norfolk-packet Capt. Francis Gilbert bound to Alexandria and directed them to the care of Mr William Herbert." On 16 Dec. after his return from an extended visit to Williamsburg, GW wrote Milnor to report the safe arrival of the cargo during his absence.
