  Late summer heading into early autumn/fall is a such beautiful time of the year. You can feel everything growing still and soft; nature is slowing down and people are getting cozy. The most stunning colours can be found outdoors at this time. 
  Despite the natural beauty and your looking forward to the coziness of winter, you find that a few short months later things have gone awry. You have ploughed headlong into winter without design or plan; you are wearing the same clothes as last year because you have not put thought into your wardrobe; you have put on weight from indiscriminate eating and are complaining in your head, or worse, out loud that ‘it’s cold today’. This was me! 
  Many warm-blooded creatures hibernate when it is cold out and go with their natural instincts by doing so. They don't enter the spring season stressed; rather, animals waking up from hibernation are coming to sleepily, well rested and ready for the warmer season; so, why don’t we? We wouldn't go to sleep for months on end, but perhaps we can take a leaf out of their book and make winter a mental spa time of rejuvenation, beauty and pleasure. 
  It is easy to be enthusiastic about the winter season when the leaves are turning. Fall fashions are always fun to look forward to. We can rekindle our love for the colours of plum, navy and camel at this time of year. But a few months later the novelty has already worn off! 
  Discover strategies for not just surviving, but thriving this winter; on how to have a chic and beautiful winter season and emerge, like a butterfly ready for a gorgeous spring and summer. 
  If you are ready to change how you feel about the winter season, treat yourself to a copy of ‘How to be Chic in the Winter’!

  Egypt's Golden Couple - When...

  Two celebrated Egyptologists bring to vivid life the intriguing and controversial reign of King Tut’s parents 
  Akhenaten has been the subject of radically different, even contradictory, biographies. The king has achieved fame as the world’s first individual and the first monotheist, but others have seen him as an incestuous tyrant who nearly ruined the kingdom he ruled. The gold funerary mask of his son Tutankhamun and the painted bust of his wife Nefertiti are the most recognizable artifacts from all of ancient Egypt. But who are Akhenaten and Nefertiti? And what can we actually say about rulers who lived more than three thousand years ago? 
   
  November 2022 marks the centennial of the discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun and although “King Tut” is a household name, his nine-year rule pales in comparison to the revolutionary reign of his parents. Akhenaten and Nefertiti became gods on earth by transforming Egyptian solar worship, innovating in art and urban design, and merging religion and politics in ways never attempted before. Combining fascinating scholarship, detective suspense, and adventurous thrills, Egypt’s Golden Couple is a journey through excavations, museums, hieroglyphic texts, and stunning artifacts. From clue to clue, renowned Egyptologists, John and Colleen Darnell, reconstruct an otherwise untold story of the magnificent reign of Akhenaten and Nefertiti.

  CATCH ME IF YOU CAN 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY STEVEN SPIELBERG 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Catch Me If You Can is a 2002 biographical crime film directed by Steven Spielberg, based on the true story of Frank Abagnale Jr. The movie follows the young con artist, played by Leonardo DiCaprio, as he successfully impersonates various professionals, including a pilot, doctor, and lawyer, all while forging checks worth millions of dollars. Tom Hanks stars as Carl Hanratty, an FBI agent relentlessly pursuing Frank. The film explores themes of deception, identity, and the complexities of trust, blending suspense with moments of humor and emotional depth as the cat-and-mouse chase unfolds. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Cameo Appearance: The real-life Frank Abagnale, Jr. plays the French officer who arrests Frank on Christmas Eve, 1969.” 
    
  “The FBI agent that pursued Frank Abagnale, Jr., and inspired the character of Carl Hanratty was Joe Shea. Frank Abagnale used the pseudonym "Sean O'Reilly" in his book because Joe Shea was still working in the FBI at that time.” 
    
  “Contrary to what is shown in the movie, Frank Abagnale never had a personal relationship with any FBI agents, nor did he contact them every Christmas. As he points out, "Why would I do that? I didn’t want them to know where I was." 
    
  “Initially, Frank Abagnale didn’t believe Leonardo DiCaprio was "suave" enough to portray him, until he saw the actor's performance.”
