Wedding Venue Heartbreak WEDDING plans of around 50 couples have been thrown into turmoil after a top hotel went bust. The historic Broadfield Hotel, in Rochdale, shut its doors on Tuesday. Many had paid thousands to hold receptions and now face a desperate hunt for a new venue for their big day. And couples have been told they have `no chance’ of getting their money back  unless they paid by credit card. It is thought 15 couples were due to have  their wedding receptions before Christmas.

Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has signed an agreement to pay Libya $5bn as part of a deal to resolve colonial-era disputes.

♥ Tribute to Jane Austen ♥

Read first if you want:)I used two films to represent Jane Austen. Olivia Williams is older Jane, right around the time her illness started to affect her and Anne Hathaway is Jane at 20, just beginning to develop as a serious writer. Basically, it's Jane remembering her youth and how she got to where she was. I'm not necessarily saying Tom was the inspiration to all her stories, but what she experienced with him and without him definitely played a big part. So to all of you who've read her books or watched the films, it'll be pretty easy to understand. Blurred images represent what's going through her mind, or what she's creating.
