No matter what publishers and writers do in terms of publicity, readers are still the final judges of what constitutes good literature. In a UK Guardian article this morning, inspired by a project by the Orange Prize and Vintage Classics, readers were asked what one book they would pass on to the next generation.
It was interesting to note the implicit and unquestioned Eurocentrism of the list and the reiterative recalling required in the production of a classic. Not one book by an African author made the list, indeed there were very few books of authors of colour there at all. I was inspired to ask a few writers to make their own recommendation by deliberately asking them to recommend one African book they would pass on to the next generation in full knowledge that one book or author's ethnicity can never be enough.
Here's what they had to say:
Eghosa Imasuen author of To Saint Patrick, a novel.
Weep Not Child, by Ngugi Wa Tiongo
I grew up in Warri, Delta State, in awe of my father's collection of books. Ngugi Wa Tiongo's Weep Not Child was my first stolen read. Worrying what daddy would do if he caught me soiling the pages with my fingers, I was both intrigued and terrified. As far away as Kenya was, these were characters I could relate to; as far away in time as the sixties were, these were characters I saw everyday in school, on the street, at church. I have read this book many times since those first days and nights of turning pages under the blanket with a torch. And I have come to realize what it did for me. It made the characters in my social studies textbooks come alive; it made them human, it told me that they could make, had made, mistakes. It showed me that history was never black or white, and that even in villainy, there were traces of humanity.
Nnedi Okorafor, author of Zahrah the Windseeker
Wizard of the Crow (Mùrùgi wa Kagoogo), by Ngugi wa Thiong'o
This great tome is a joy to read. It pays homage to the most traditional form of African storytelling, oral storytelling, on the level of language and cadence. It's full of rebellion, riots and mayhem. The reader witnesses the African people of the mythical Free Republic of Aburiria bring down a dictator. It gives the big middle finger to corrupt politicians and sell-outs and shows them what they are: Monsters. The story is both modern and ancient. It features strong, active and compelling male and female characters. It addresses issues of gender within an African context. It shows the world as a place that is indeed full of magic and sorcery. I think all these things are images and ideas that every African youth should have percolating in her or his psyche.
Ivor W. Hartmann, author of Mr. Goop
The House of Hunger, by Dambudzo Marechera
Without doubt, The House of Hunger by Dambudzo Marechera. Now, there are a multitude of reasons why this is my first choice, but primarily it's because in my opine he, and this book, towers above most authors, African or otherwise. Perhaps it can best be explained by a quote from the writer himself in The House of Hunger:
"Insist upon your right to go off on a tangent. Your right to put the spanner in the works. Your right to refuse to be labelled and to insist on your right to behave like anything other than what anyone expects. Your right to simply say no for the pleasure of it. To insist on your right to confound all who insist on regimenting human impulses according to theories psychological, religious, historical, philosophical, political, etc.... Insist upon your right to insist upon your right to insist on the importance, the great importance, of whim."
Which are all sentiments I heartily agree with, and which were reflected in his life and works. As for other reasons, well, he was my countryman, and his writing was so far ahead of the times it was virtually prophetic, and as such, holds a great relevance to us now, and certainly for future generations, in our eternal quest for true freedom.
John Collins, author and musicologist
African Rhythms and African Sensibility, by John Chernoff
Deals with the philosophy behind traditional African drumming and its relation to society. This book influenced a lot of people, including westerners, like the rock muscian Brian Eno, and the Nigerian musician Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, who told me it was the best book written by a white man on African music.
John Chernoff spent many years in Ghana studying traditional drumming. Unlike many other books that try to quantify African drumming mathematically or just present objective descriptions of instruments, John's book delves in the internal subjective and artistic side of drumming with an 'insider's' eye. He helped open the ears and eyes of many New Wave rock artists of the 1980's who were moving towards African music - which makes the book even more relevant to the present era with the international rise of World Music and Afropop.
Sade Adeniran, author of Imagine This
Zenzele: A letter for My Daughter, by J Maraire Nozipo
It was one of those books I could not put down once I started reading. The story goes deep inside Rhodesia (present-day Zimbabwe) and narrates the political and cultural struggles of Zimbabweans. What shines bright through the story is Amai Zenzele's pride for her heritage, which she expresses so eloquently in a letter to her daughter who had left home to go to university in America. Each chapter is a lesson intended to warn Zenzele of the hardships she may face as a black woman studying in a foreign country.
It struck a chord with me, because I live in a country where 'Nigerian' is sometimes seen as a pejorative term. To fit in, we embrace all that is Western and eschew our own culture. This book reminded me to be proud of my heritage and to remember where I came from.
Helon Habila, author Waiting for an Angel
Butterfly Burning, by Yvonne Vera
It is a beautifully written book. But most importantly it addresses the important issue of power and powerlessness in an African context, something that has always been important to me. Woman is here used to represent the subaltern class, the voiceless, who are sometimes driven to extreme acts in order to be heard. In this book a woman is confronted with an artificial limit set upon her hopes and expectations, and she commits a ritual suicide just to be heard. Sort of like in Tunisia when an impoverished street vendor, confronted with the sheer hopelessness of his situation, set himself ablaze in the central city of Sidi Bouzid last December.
Virginia Dike, educator and children's book author
Arrow of God, by Chinua Achebe
Of course it's an impossible question! There are so many candidates. From earlier years: Alan Paton's Cry, the Beloved Country (my first African novel), Ayi Kwei Armah's The Beautyful Ones Are Not Yet Born, Sembene Ousmane's God's Bits of Wood to more recent titles like Helon Habila's Measuring Time, Aminatta Forna's Ancestor Stones, Buchi Emecheta's The Slave Girl, and so many others. However, since I'm asked to pick only one, I would have to choose one that made a memorable and lasting impression. That is Chinua Achebe's Arrow of God. I read it before I came to Nigeria and found in it such a vivid depiction of a society. But in particular I was struck by the depiction of a leader struggling to mediate between his society and the new world order, trying to find his way with integrity, and getting entangled by his ego. This made Ezeulu lose his objectivity and perspective, and led to personal tragedy, while his people quickly made their own arrangements and went on with their lives. I think this addresses a dilemma faced in every generation: holding to one's principles and daring to play a role, while retaining one's humility and perspective; having a realistic assessment of human frailty (of oneself and others) without giving up or giving in to cynicism or despair.
Sefi Atta, author of News From Home
Our Sister Killjoy by Ama Ata Aidoo
It's the most dangerous book I've ever read by an African writer because Ama Ata Aidoo told the very people who were likely to publish the book—educated Westerners who were open to stories from Africa—exactly what she thought of them, and she wasn't complimentary.
I'm surprised the book was ever published. In the West, dangerous writing is seen as a protest on social and political injustices in far-flung places. And in fact, that type of writing is quite welcome in the West. But if you dare to take on liberal racism and hypocrisy, as Ama Ata Aidoo did without flinching in Our Sister Killjoy, and to brag that as an African woman you're freer and better off living in Africa, that would almost certainly be the death of your book in the West. She was brave.
Teju Cole, author of Every Day is for The Thief
News from Home, by Sefi Atta
A book for the next generation of African readers? I have two different responses to the question. One is that it's almost better to read nothing at all than to read just one book. You need many different books, many points of view. Secondly, I don't know if African readers should be thinking only of "African" books. Seems too narrow, somehow. The whole world belongs to us. Our perspective should be wide and generous.
Having said that, I would highly recommend to anyone, African or otherwise, Sefi Atta's short stories, which were published as "Lawless and Other Stories," in Nigeria and as "News From Home" in the U.S. Many of her stories can be found online. The work seems modest, but she's actually a master of the short story form; with great skill she takes you into many of the complicated ways of being African today.
A few of my favorites:
The Devil That Danced on the Water by Aminatta Forna
Stars of the New Curfew by Ben Okri
Aké, The Years of Childhood by Wole Soyinka
The Sand Child by Tahar ben Jelloun
Firstly I think mine would have to be 'The Lion and the Jewel' by Wole Soyinka. He is an inspirational writer and makes me proud to be African and Nigerian. Secondly, and unfortunately, I realised that my reading list is highly westernised . I re-read Things Fall Apart last year and it brought back so many joyful memories. But beyond that, I think I need to return to the literature of the mother-land, poetry included. Finally, and most discouraging, is the fact that, like my reading list, my writing style is also very westernised. I seem to have forgotten the effect that Mr. Soyinka's play had on me as a child and retained only my memories of Oliver Twist as my first read. What a shame.
Spud by John Van der Ruit_born and raised in South Africa.
It is a great book telling the story of a young boy post 1994 in South Africa, taking him from pre-perty right through his school life in a changing South African landscape . I am confident it can be passed on because it teaches fundamental principles in a fun and exciting way and my 11 year old enjoyed all three books tremendously. A very well written story and a very successful movie has been made a s well.
How could no one remember to add Things Fall Apart? All these books here pale to insignificance when placed next to Things Fall Apart.
This is a nice initiative but it is not exhaustive.
In this same series, or as an addendum, we should have this same
author talk about african books they read more recently abeg. and
we should even have more authors like 50? 60? Its all good though. its alll good.

At last: Some bits of Kaguya video online in reasonable detail
Posted by Emily Lakdawalla
I have frequently bemoaned the stingy data release policy of JAXA and the Japan Broadcasting Corporation (NHK), who have chosen not to show off the full capability of the high-definition camera aboard the Kaguya lunar orbiter; they've been releasing only very low-resolution video to the Internet, and make the full-resolution video available only via DVD to educators who sign a restrictive release form. (I can send you that form if you send me an email.) At last, though, the restrictions appear to be loosening just a tiny bit; they have now released some video to the Web that, if it's not actually at HD resolution, it's at least at the resolution of standard-definition TV sets. The two videos are from the November Earthrise and Earthset releases. They're very beautiful, but short! I want more! The two 30-second videos were released in MPEG-2 format and are about 30-40 MB apiece; Doug Ellison was kind enough to convert them to Quicktime files for me, which are a much happier 2 MB apiece.
To explain the resolution under discussion: the Kaguya HD camera is capable of recording video with a resolution of 1,920 by 1,080 pixels. The videos I am showing you today are at 720 by 400 pixels, about a third of the full resolution. Most of the videos released to date have been at a resolution of no more than 480 by 270, a quarter of the full resolution; and some are even lower, 240 by 135.JAXA official Shin-ichi Sobue also pointed me to a new website hosted by NHK that seems to promise more video downloads in the future. It's all in Japanese though so I'm not sure what any of the text says.

Donaji & the Magical Poncho
This is the story of a fearless girl and her encounter with the wicked cold wind god
4.33 / 5.00 6,329 ViewsEarth is under attack! Clowns over France, Demons over Russia, and Robots over the USA! Disintegrate foolish invaders with your massive firepower. But be careful: even alien fragments can damage your delicate Earthly cities. Destroy all traces of the invaders FTW!
I would have given 4 or 5 stars but on lvl 5-z around 40 to 30 seconds left a wall of zombies and assorted junk keeps coming and doesn't let up. and it generally either comes from all angles or massively from one spot and small amounts from other spot. The lvl is impossible to beat.
Pretty good game, but has some annoying flaws:
-The damage system is kind of annoying, a hydrogen bomb does the same amount of damage as a tiny zombie forearm, resulting in much frustration when bits are just flying everywhere.
- The damage sounds in the Paris levels are pretty annoying,
- Most of the weapons feel the same, only the Paris rockets and maybe the Berlin Laser are different.
- There is no quality option, so there is hellofa lot of lag.
- I can't seem to complete 4-Z due to the lag causing a giant wall of zombie parts and sperm-jellyfish and what not killing me instantly when reaching me like when there is 20 seconds left.
- The is no damage cooldown, you can lose all your health in under one second if you are unlucky.
I guess the rest of the game is alright, I certaintly had fun for the most part
Boring, repetitive, and ninety percent of the time when you take damage it doesn't feel like its your fault, but rather the game registering the hit too soon.... not to mention the porno moaning from the clowns is incredibly annoying...
Played through it. Meh. It was:
-Not terribly challenging
-Not interesting (all the enemies and weapons are the same)
-No options/user input/ anything to make it feel like I had an impact on the game
-Story and all that was obviously lacking :P
-Do I need to say more?
-No REAL boss fights. Give us something giant that's like 20 zombies pasted together or something.
It's a good game, no doubt but there are a few things i feel i should touch upon.
Number 1, the game is very repetitive, i know that its a space shooter so what was i expecting but the fact that it is the same thing over and over is boring and it gets very repetitive fast, its the same enemies with a new texture and sound, there's no variety in enemy placement its just shoot anything that comes close to you, which is ok, for the first two minutes!
Number 2, weapons, once again, its the same thing with a different texture and sound, something like a bomb to wipe all enemies on the screen would be a great feature in a game like this or maybe a new type of weapon that does lasting damage.
Number 3, boss fights, a boss fight should be a major part of a game not a free for all, all that happens is its a rush of enemies all at the same time, apart from the ending of course, which is a little disappointing, i was expecting something like a mini boss, not an onslaught!
Number 4, options, this is nit picking but i have to put it out there, there isn't many options, in fact non that would help the player anyway, the option to turn the sound off and the music off is fine but a volume control would be nice for those of us who like to balance both FX and music, also, quality, specifically graphics quality, unlike some my computer can only handle so much, so being able to lower the graphics so the game doesn't suck the life out of your computer is a must for a gravity/ physics game like this.
Apart from the 4 points this game is good, it could be great, maybe not awesome because it fades in with all the other games like this, it needs more variety.
Also, this game looks like it was made with Stencyl, just sayin' is all)

Perhaps you, like me, are studying your summer-holiday plans and feeling slightly foolish. I have bookings on British Airways during the school holidays, when flights could be jeopardised by more cabin-crew strikes. I bought the tickets many months ago, in the mistaken belief that the row over the imposition of new staffing could not possibly drag on so long.
Since many of my predictions about the course of this debilitating dispute have proved wrong, it serves me right that I possess a Heathrow-Amsterdam return ticket: short-haul flights from BA's main base are the trips under threat from the next series of cabin-crew strikes. But even though other passengers may be booking on rival airlines to avoid the uncertainty, I reckon my flights will go ahead. I confidently (and quite possibly wrongly) predict that the dispute will be settled within a week or two.
The longer that cabin crew threaten to strike without actually doing so, the more financial and reputational damage is wrought on BA – without the cabin crew taking a direct financial hit themselves. Surveying the market for forward bookings, it looks to me that passengers are deserting the airline in droves.
Owning a fleet of Airbuses and Boeings in August is as close as an airline can get to a licence to print money, particularly if the carrier has a good reputation for service and is blessed with the largest number of slots at Heathrow. British Airways normally extracts a handsome premium on its fares. The airline needs this margin in order to meet a cost base that is much higher than many competitors. But this summer BA appears unable to raise its prices above those of its rivals. Test bookings I have made for August and beyond suggest it is now having to discount heavily.
Take Heathrow-Los Angeles, departing 15 August for a week. Expedia quotes a whacking £1,211 on Virgin Atlantic: Sir Richard Branson's airline is cleaning up on flights to California. United's £981 return will be boosted by a few extra bucks because it sells, rather than gives away, drinks. Even Air New Zealand is able to pitch fares at a couple of pounds above BA's £945 return; operating between two points outside its home territory, the New Zealand airline usually has to undercut rivals to fill seats.
The Heathrow-Dubai route suggests travellers are booking away from BA into September. Emirates, offering a superior product in the shape of its A380, charges the most: £450 return. Normally BA and Virgin fight it out for second place at around £420. But Virgin can price tickets at £15 more than this, while BA is £15 less. To Delhi, British Airways is charging £80 less than the excellent Indian carrier, Jet Airways. And key business routes are showing weakness: a day trip from Heathrow to Frankfurt, at the start of the first full working week in September, sees BA at £108 – less than half Lufthansa's corresponding fare. And for valuable transit traffic on a route such as San Francisco to Nice, the Orbitz website shows BA undercutting other European airlines.
Unite, the cabin-crew union, has had enough, too. A dispute that has its roots in whether or not the most steward or stewardess on a long-haul flight should push a trolley looks flimsy when hundreds of thousands of public-sector workers look certain to lose their jobs. The latest ballot is over issues arising from the strikes in March and May. Unite has already given up on a demand for disciplinary action against union members to be dropped. The only stumbling block is the full reinstatement of staff travel. BA needs to make one more modest concession for the strike threat to be lifted.
Distance no object for BA cabin crew
The longer the BA dispute has gone on, the more the world – and fare-paying passengers – learn about the life of cabin crew. Inflight hats off to them for negotiating such benevolent terms and conditions, and for constructing enviable lifestyles.
Four hundred stewards and stewardesses commute to work from Spain (mainly Barcelona), and a similar number from the south of France. Strikers were told they would lose staff travel perks forever if they walked out, but BA now says it will immediately reinstate cheap tickets for commuting cabin crew if the present proposals are accepted.
More exotically still, 100 cabin crew combine working from London with residing in more far-flung and alluring parts of the world, such as California, South Africa and Australia. Even compared with two hours on the M25, that's a gruelling commute.
BA's only stipulation: they must report for work "suitably rested".

Top-lit atria are more popular than side-lit atria because they are believed to have a better distribution and higher daylighting level. However, in low latitude humid tropics they may cause over lighting and thus overheating. Using computer simulation, this study attempts to compare the distribution and level ofdaylighting in top-lit atria with those in the side-lit atria

The only problem with that interpretation is that it doesn't match the "Moral of the Story" (which is "Be very careful of strings that you get from untrusted sources.") Shooting yourself in the foot that way has nothing to do with strings from untrusted sources. The disconnect is as strong as if it had said:
Look at this troublesome code:Both pieces are true (fork bombs are bad, external data shouldn't be trusted) but the jump from one to the other is unclear and misleading. It implies that external data can cause unexpected fork bombs, but it doesn't actually demonstrating how such a thing might happen. -Blake In reply to Re2:Trojan Horse? (taint mode)

Property specifying the window handle for this window.
The value of this property can be safely converted to screen_window_t type.
BlackBerry 10.0.0
Property indicating the idle behavior of the screen when this window is displayed.
The window may allow either the normal idle behavior with ScreenIdleMode::Normal, or it can prevent idle behavior with ScreenIdleMode::KeepAwake.
The default value is ScreenIdleMode::Normal.
BlackBerry 10.0.0
Property indicating the state of the window.
A stateChanged() signal is emitted when the value of this property changes.
In addition a posted() signal is emitted when window changes its state to WindowState::Posted.
The default value is WindowState::Created.
BlackBerry 10.0.0
This property is overridden from QObject.
BlackBerry 10.0.0
A read-only property that represents this object's parent.
The parent of an object is specified using QObject::setParent(QObject*). The purpose of the property is to expose the object's parent to QML.
This property is read-only to prevent modifications from QML, where typically the parent is declaratively set. In C++ code, the parent can be explicitly set using QObject::setParent(QObject*), or implicitly set by adding it to a visual container.
The default value of this property is 0.
BlackBerry 10.0.0
Public Functions
Does not affect the represented native window.
BlackBerry 10.0.0
Returns the window group for this window.
A string representing window group
BlackBerry 10.0.0
Returns the window handle for this window.
A window handle (can be casted to screen_window_t type)
BlackBerry 10.0.0
Returns the current mode the window is using to control the idle behavior of the screen.
Typically, this is to leave the behavior unchanged with ScreenIdleMode::Normal.
The value of the current idle mode behavior. The returned value will be either ScreenIdleMode::Normal or ScreenIdleMode::KeepAwake.
BlackBerry 10.0.0
Returns the state of the window.
The state of the window
BlackBerry 10.0.0
Sets the objectName property.
Parameters | |
name |
The new name for the object. |
BlackBerry 10.0.0
virtual Q_INVOKABLE QString
Returns a debug string representing this object.
A debug string for the object.
BlackBerry 10.0.0
Protected Functions
(Only has inherited protected functions)
Constructs an instance of BaseObject's subclass.
Parameters | |
parent |
An optional parent, defaults to 0. |
BlackBerry 10.0.0
Public Slots
Controls the idle behavior of the screen when this window is displayed.
Typically the idle behavior is to fade the display, but this may also include other behaviors like locking the device.
Parameters | |
newScreenIdleMode |
The idle behavior to use when this window is displayed. Must be one of ScreenIdleMode::Normal, or ScreenIdleMode::KeepAwake. |
BlackBerry 10.0.0
Emitted when the window state becomes WindowState::Posted.
After this signal is emitted it is safe to use Window's groupId and handle with the APIs which require the window to be posted (such as for use with Cards).
BlackBerry 10.0.0
Emitted when the idle mode behavior is changed.
Due to a work around for a Qt Core issue with accessing enums from QML the argument of this signal doesn't follow naming convention for signals in which the signal arguments are typically named to match the associated property's name. Use the object's property to access current property value instead of the signal argument to avoid runtime errors (i.e. use screenIdleMode instead of newScreenIdleMode).
Parameters | |
newScreenIdleMode |
The new idle behavior for the screen when this window is displayed. |
BlackBerry 10.0.0
Emitted when the state of the window changes.
Due to a work around for a Qt Core issue with accessing enums from QML the argument of this signal doesn't follow naming convention for signals in which the signal arguments are typically named to match the associated property's name. Use the object's property to access current property value instead of the signal argument to avoid runtime errors (i.e. use state instead of newState).
Parameters | |
newState |
the new state of the window |
BlackBerry 10.0.0
Emitted when this object is instantiated as a result of loading a QML document and creating the root node (only after the root component that caused this instantiation has completed construction), or when the object is being constructed from its builder class.
This signal indicates that the construction and initialization of the object has been completed, the properties are initialized, and any QML binding values have been assigned to the object.
This signal is not emitted when the object is constructed from C++ using the constructor. If the object is constructed using its builder class, the signal is emitted when the the builder class returns the fully constructed object.
This signal can be used when there is an activity that needs to be performed, such as a property state integrity verification after the object is instantiated from a QML document or a builder, but before control is returned to the application.
BlackBerry 10.0.0
This signal is emitted when the objectName property is changed.
BlackBerry 10.0.0

A sunny day for our crossing, so we went up on deck and met several dog owners exercising their pets, plus other people doing various interesting trips. Once back in the cabin, Tricia set about writing christmas cards!! There won't be much time for that once we return, so it is a good idea.

We went back to our pension with more Sidra, candies, fruit chocolate and dried meats, and heads of lettuce because I just really wanted to eat something green.

This begs the question: when was farming ever not frantic in Harvest Moon? Advertisement The twist here is that instead of having to coax stubborn soil into yielding seasonal crops — the status quo of Harvest Moon games — the island you're farming is overwhelmed with fast-growing vegetables. Your objective in the role of one of 12 playable characters is to find out what gives with the overabundance. Also, there's Score Attack, Mission Mode, Free Play and multiplayer modes.By the way, it's a puzzle game. Which means I won't be that into it because from what I remember of Puzzle de Harvest Moon, you couldn't get knocked up — which is too bad because to me it just isn't a Harvest Moon game if your character is not producing on all fronts instead of just the crops. Look for Frantic Farming in August.Reply27 repliesLeave a reply

We took a day trip to Sedona, Arizona to gallery hop. I love Bruce Butler's sculptures (click HERE); they are life size with unusual metal pieces welded into them.
His faces are exquisite. I'm inspired, but I'm still knitting my heart away.
Interesting work. I have never been to Sedona but hope to get there when I am in Arizona for longer than one week.
Oh my, I DO love these faces! They remind me of a couple ifaces I did with polymer in my series of Native American Full Moon Dolls, but honestly they only remind ME. They are what I was striving for, not what i achieved! LOL Thanks for the photos, Marlene. I always love faces. :)
I too love his work. His sculpts truly have life to them.

Jessica Biel, Olivia Munn: Who Was Best-Dressed at the Time 100 Gala?
Not only did these four famous women -- Jessica Biel, Olivia Munn, Christina Aguilera, and Lena Dunham -- wear the best dresses at the Time 100 Gala in NYC on Apr. 23, they arguably never looked better! And that says a lot, considering all of them are red carpet veterans.
Actress Biel, who was on hand to celebrate with husband and Time 100 honoree Justin Timberlake, wowed in a black Tom Ford dress with asymmetrical lines and Tom Ford heels. The couple were a walking billboard for Tom Ford, in fact: Timberlake donned a shawl-collared tux by the designer as well.
PHOTOS: Star-studded party pics from the Time 100 Gala
Newsroom star Munn, who, incidentally, was once linked to man of the hour Timberlake, turned heads in a canary yellow lace Michael Kors strapless gown with a dramatic train. Her date? None other than the designer himself Michael Kors, an honoree. Besides a single gold cuff, her only accessory was her gorgeous glow.
PHOTOS: How to make over your man!
Aguilera, an honoree at the event, has slimmed down recently and the singer showed off her toned body in a figure-hugging Victoria Beckham gown with a modest keyhole cutout. Diamonds -- and a pop of bright red on her lips -- added oomph to her otherwise understated look.
Girls creator and star Dunham, also on the Time 100 list, looked chic and adorable in a Saint Laurent halter dress with plunging neckline. A silver spiked belt and T-strap pointy heels, also by Saint Laurent, gave the look a little edge.
Tell Us: Who do you think was best-dressed at the event?

The iPhone 6 is too big. I've heard that as much as I've heard praise for the new, larger iPhones, which have in any case outsold prior iPhones. But for those who miss the ease of slipping their smartphone into a pocket or using it one-handed, Apple could be planning an 'iPhone mini' for 2015—in other words, a return to the prior model's 4-inch display size.
The rumor comes through Timothy Arcuri, the Apple analyst for research firm Cowen & Company. Arcuri suggested that Apple could release an iPhone 6s next year, melding the iPhone 5s dimensions with the new generation's curved-edge design.
What this means for you: If an iPhone mini is in the works, it could give Apple a more universally appealing product line—three phones, that, like the Three Bears, could somehow satisfy any Goldilocks. If nothing else, the rumor could encourage fans of the prior generation's size to keep asking for a return to the good old days, instead of silently resigning themselves to the larger new models.
Some people still like smaller phones
Despite the overall trend toward larger smartphones, there's definitely still room in the market for compact models. Over the the last two months since the iPhone 6 went on sale, I've buttonholed numerous iPhone 6 users and asked them how they like their larger phones. Almost universally, they like the larger display size while also acknowleding the one-handed ease of the prior model.
Just a few weeks ago, an iPhone 6 Plus user at the next table to mine at a restaurant told me, "it's great for video, but it's hard to hold for everything else." Another friend has embraced his iPhone 6 Plus as an iPad mini-mini, saying he doesn't need a tablet because he has this huge phone.
If Apple came out with an iPhone mini, would you buy it? Let us know in the comments.

World Leprosy Day
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
World Leprosy Day is observed internationally on January 30 or its nearest Sunday to increase the public awareness of the Leprosy or Hansen's Disease. This day was chosen in commemoration of the death of Gandhi, the leader of India who understood the importance of leprosy. Leprosy is one of the oldest recorded diseases in the world. It is an infectious chronic disease that targets the nervous system, especially the nerves in the cooler parts of the body - the hands, feet, and face.

The world is in a terrible mess. Global warming is causing irreversible damage to the environment, poverty and greed is stifling progress and corruption is rife. The solution? It's time to hand over the reigns to the next generation.
That is the idea being put forward at the largest youth gathering in the world this week by a crowd of global thinkers — Nobel Prize winners, CEOs, astronauts and former Boomtown Rats among them.
The One Young World conference, now in its fourth year, gathers bright young things from across the world to discuss the big issues of the day. More than 1,200 young people from 190 countries are attending this year's conference in Johannesburg. Delegates from Somalia, Syria, Sudan, Vietnam and across Africa have been flown in to the continent's commercial hub for the conference.
On hand to point the youngsters in the right direction is an impressive group of counsellors: former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan, Nobel Peace Prize winner Muhammad Yunus, Sir Richard Branson, Ariana Huffington and Bob Geldof, among many others.
Over three days in Johannesburg, the delegates listen to the elder speakers and debate among themselves before breaking off into sessions on the sidelines to flesh out their plots to take over the world.
Among the perennial issues such as global warming and activism, this year saw discussions on the legacy of anti-apartheid icon Nelson Mandela with Ahmed Kathrada, the a friend of the former South African President with whom he spent many years imprisoned on Robben Island.
There have been discussions on the battle against AIDS in Africa, entrepreneurship with Mr Branson, the war in Afghanistan and violence against women.
Away from the talks,the summit is one giant networking event for young people who would perhaps not have the opportunity to network under normal circumstances.
But the big idea, says One Young World's co-founder David Jones, is to foster the next generation of world leaders.
"The aim is to create a forum through which these leaders can connect with each other and offer them a platform normally only given to those in power," he says.
"The idea is that, rather than just being a lone, brilliant 17-year-old, young people can be a One Young World ambassador and connect with others to give even more weight to their ambitions."
One of the counsellors, Muhammad Yunus, who won a Nobel Peace Prize for his pioneering of microfinance, lifting millions out of poverty in his native Bangladesh in the process, is more urgent about the matter.
"Many of my colleagues here are telling the young people: 'you are the future leaders.' I tell them they are the leaders now. They need to take over. Our generation had to wait a long time to get as smart as you. They are ready now," he told The Independent.
"Technology has created a situation where today's 15-year-old is more ready than 21-year-old of yesterday."
Sir Bob, a counsellor and early supporter of One Young World, had a similar message.
"My generation has failed more than others. You cannot let your generation fail. The next war will not be a World War 1 or a World War 2, it will be the end," he told a young crowd at the event's opening ceremony at the city's Soccer City stadium on Wednesday.
"Just because you may not believe that progress is possible, that should not prevent you from trying for it," he said. "The alternative is finality."

Piddy PEN means penalties. And I think he is a solid tackle. I'd definitely like him to stay.
Beatty got plenty of push in the run game from the LT position. Almost everything he needed to improve upon, he did.
My favorite part of Beatty's penalties though is that he leaves little doubt. It's either a full chokehold clothesline or bust.
I think Beatty is more important to sign for the team than Cruz to be honest. If we had a power OL and Eli, he could make it work with anybody at WR, not to mention our running game would be that much better with Wilson in the backfield no longer having to pull blocking assignments all the time (because said improved OL doesn't need chips by the RB).
I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite team in the NFL.
Moss might be pushing it, but we all saw in carolina what Eli could do with Barden given enough time in the pocket and another receiver to draw coverage away...
All i'm saying is if Eli gets 2-3 more seconds in the pocket, he could roll with Randle, Jernigan, and Barden as his starting WR and still kick ***...
I'm Commander Shepard, and this is my favorite team in the NFL.

Party on, pasta! Festive fusilli, tossed with roma (plum) tomatoes, garlic, chili peppers, olives and herbs, makes a dish just right for a casual get-together. MORE + LESS -
You can use rotini or rotelle (short corkscrew pasta) for the fusilli pasta.
The long and short of it is that fusilli comes in both lengths and looks like thick spaghetti that came in contact with a curling iron.

Punte de la Mujer - an architectural triumph in Buenos Aires
Buenos Aires is among the most frequently-visited cities in South America thanks in large part to its diverse architecture. There is one structure in particular that is attracting a significant portion of the attention - the Punte de la Mujer pedestrian bridge. An unusual design combined with the fact the bridge rotates 90 degrees to accommodate water traffic will make it a unique highlight of a tour of South America.
The bridge was completed in 2001 and stands as one of the most recognizable features in Buenos Aires due to its large cantilever spar. While it serves as a vital walkway to get from place to place int the city, the bridge is also a great spot for sightseeing visitors and provides a beautiful view of the city, especially at night.
Perhaps most compelling about the Punte de la Mujer is its inspiration. It was designed by the famous Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava, who said that he drew from a couple dancing the tango, which not only pays tribute to the cultural side of Argentina but also makes it evident why it's named what it is - Punte de la Mujer translates into "women's bridge."

My Freezer keeps peeing on my NICE WOOD FLOORS!
Model Number: LSC27914ST Brand: -other- Age: 1 - 5 years
Hey guys I just bought a new house! (whoop whoop) But the LG Freezer that came with it keeps leaking water.. The inside of it looks like this: photo.jpg After a very extensive examination, I have tracked the problem to the Ice Maker. It looks like this: photo (1).jpg The tray is actually loose on the left side, and I can wiggle it around.. I am very mechanically inclined (Do most of my own auto repairs), have worked on washers / dryers / dishwashers, but have NO (read: 0) experience with a refrigerator.. What is wrong with it? Should I call a repair man? Thanks for the advice! Related Models |

Here are your parts
Parts for LSC27914ST - AppliancePartsPros.com Looks like something is wrong with the tray mounting. If you look at the section with the ice maker and then click on the parts picture or description a new page will open often with more views of it and info. Perhaps this may help figure out what is broken/installed wrong. Part number: AP4438280 Looks like the stud on the left hand side should be holding it up. Perhaps it is broken off or has jumped out of where it should be.

To the 20 or so gentlemen who confess to reading my column and the 10, if not 12, more who are not yet ready to admit to it, this one is for you.
Valentine's Day is tomorrow, your chance to go from zero to hero if you play it out right.
Winning over your sweetheart doesn't have to cost a lot of money. No need to drop cash on jewelry, flowers or boxes of candy that will land square on our thighs, though all of those things are most welcome. But in reality, we are much simpler than that, we just want to be adored.
Every year when my husband asks me what I'd like for Valentine's Day, I tell him the only thing I really want is a hand-written note citing all of the wonderful things about me and our love. And every year he asks if there isn't anything else, maybe a new CD or a small household appliance I'd rather have.
To help you (and him) out, I am sharing my line of Valentine Poems by Jules, sure to melt the hearts of your honeys and make this your most memorable VD ever. (That sounded better in my head.)
An ice-breaker for your new love interest:
Your car is red,
Your front door is blue
I swear I'm not creepy,
I'm just into you.
For the girl you started dating Martin Luther King weekend:
Roses cost money,
Our relationship's new
Movie's on me,
But dinner's on you.
And for the girl who was disappointed you didn't pop the question last Valentine's Day (dedicated to my brothers):
Don't be mad
If I can't say "I do."
Remember commitment-phobes
Are people too.
For your wife of one year or less:
Candy and flowers
And my heart so true …
Forever isn't long enough
To be in love with you.
For the man who gave his wife the exact same Valentine card two years in a row and then photocopied it for the third year (ahem, Dad):
Ditto from last year
And the year before.
After four decades
Do you really need more?
And, finally, for the man who just wants to tell his sweetheart, the mother of his children, the love of his life exactly how much he cares:
You're an excellent cook
And a good driver, too.
In those jeans. I love you.
I hope these love poems help you in your quest for the perfect expression of sentiment and, whether you receive one or not, that you enjoy a perfect Valentine's Day.

A 21-year-old San Bernardino man who was fatally shot while waiting in his car at a red light was identified.
An unknown assailant opened fire on William Alejandro Mendoza at 12:53 a.m. Sunday, July 14 at Baseline and H streets just east of Interstate 215, said city police Sgt. Gary Robertson.
âThe car drove up, fired and drove off,â the sergeant said.
The car, which he described only as white and possibly a four-door model, sped west on Baseline Road. A friend of Mendoza who was driving separately behind the victim saw the shooting, jumped out of his own car and into Medoza's and drove him to Community Hospital.
Mendoza was hit in the upper torso and died at the hospital around 1:30 a.m.
Mendoza's death, in the 28th week of the year, marks the cityâs 25th killing this year â" the same tally as this time last year.
Police are investigating the incident. The sergeant asked anyone with information to call Detective Steve Turner at 909-384-5647.

The Navy's Office of Naval Research plans to build a Naval Big Data Ecosystem to provide more sophisticated analytics for supporting its warfighting applications.
The Office of Naval Research is interested in receiving white papers and full proposals for advanced technology development that will forge major advancements toward a big data ecosystem, according to procurement documents.
The Navy's intent is to significantly improve the naval community's real-time ability to bring together data from national systems and sensors and from naval combat and weapons systems and sensors. In the past, the ability to merge these types of information to support tactical warfighting has been extremely limited.
The Navy has used technologies, such as cloud computing, big data and improved cross-domain technologies, to better expand the possibilities for integration and exploitation of national and tactical data sources.
The research office wants to focus on four key areas:
Developing a robust naval data science foundation that addresses data representations and ontologies required to support a wide range of naval warfare mission Areas.
Identifying, ingesting, and indexing data sources pertinent to naval warfighting missions.
Developing advanced analytics for naval warfare mission areas.
Setting up data protection and security mechanisms to ensure the integrity of data used throughout the analytic process.
The Navy released a presolicitation that requests white papers and full proposals June 19. Responses are due by Oct. 3.

You clearly started a trend, and I'm sure your apartment looked fabulous when you lived there. Those first homes always have a dear place in the heart. Great memories. How fun that you can "virtually visit" from time to time through the website and see your old home in such great shape!
JeanneI cant believe you used to live there! I looked at an apartment there when I was apartment hunting 3 years ago...There was a lot of shady stuff going on there between the developers, real estate agents and the renters who were being thrown out... It was a building in turmoil and ultimately we went with something in a much smaller boutique building.
Crazy though!We are just beginning the do we stay in the city or move to the suburbs convo-- have a few years to figure it out but there are pros and cons to both. 60's/70's on the UES is really my favorite place to live! Seeing pics of your pretty home chalks up another point for Westchester though...
