|Reviews for Animate Me
| The extraordinary life of me chapter 2 . 6/21/2013
i always love reading about geekward
| BeneathTheBlackVeil chapter 2 . 5/11/2013
Gothictemptress recommended your novel, and I loved it so much that I came by to read your outtakes. Congratulations on all of your success!
| 3rose2 chapter 1 . 5/5/2013
i just finished reading your book on my kindle and I must tell you how much I enjoyed it. I could not put it down. I came on Fan Fic just to see if there is anything else that you wrote that I can read. I really wish you the most success and look forward to reading your next book.
| InfiniteDreamcatcher chapter 1 . 4/29/2013
Hm, I love the story and I was at the chapter 27 but didn't have the chance to finish it. I think you took it off FF, but is there any way to read it somewhere ?
| AshleighRebekah chapter 2 . 4/4/2013
| inditaTwihards chapter 2 . 3/24/2013
this is great
| Astha Cullen chapter 1 . 3/23/2013
Hey, I am having trouble accessing this story from chapter 19 onwards. Is there some technical problem or are you taking down the story?
| Guest chapter 43 . 3/23/2013
Great story! So glad I was able to read it before you took it off FF.
| thenewEmily chapter 37 . 3/23/2013
I really liked this and I did cry a little. This is a great story! You should have much more favorites!
| mollybean chapter 43 . 3/22/2013
I fell in love with Toonward AGAIN. Thank you for writing one of my favorite stories and my absolute favorite Carlisle the Kung Woo Master. It's embarrassing how often I use the word "woo". Good luck, but I hope you'll be back.
| Ashlyn13 chapter 37 . 3/21/2013
I absolutely LOVED this story. It gave me a whole new appreciation for animation. This girl in my presentation class actually did a career presentation over animation yesterday and the whole time all I could think about was this story. It really gave me a new perspective on it. Great story. I love Toonward! And I'm so glad I saw that you were taking it down ahead of time so that I could have the chance to read it. I loved it. Thanks for writing and sharing! :)
| Jules Bells chapter 38 . 3/21/2013
Wow it's scary (and funny) how write those Cullen men have on "The Book of Woo" maybe you should write one like that - your spot on about that target market :D
| georgiaedwardlover chapter 43 . 3/20/2013
I met you last June at the Twi-Fic Meet-up in Las Vegas and heard about "Animate Me" then. For some reason, I didn't pick it up. I saw on Robcentrically Speaking that you were about to pull it, so I quickly read it. I loved how you didn't trash anyone but Aro. All the other characters I love were left intact. It was a great story with interesting interactions among the characters. Thanks for writing it!
| MMOBB chapter 43 . 3/20/2013
Just finished re-reading this story, and fell in love with it, AGAIN, from the very first chapter, AGAIN. Thank you so much for writing this, sharing this, and making me remember that there are still authors who write swoon-worthy fic. Thank you also for the warning on Twitter that it was coming down, so I'd be able to get my fill. I really think you are one of the most talented writers here, and I hope that you won't be going away forever.
Thanks so much for sharing your abilities and visions.
| melsean chapter 1 . 3/19/2013
I had to wean myself off of WIP's, especially after "Animate Me;" waiting for my Saturday update of ToonWard was tortuous. That isn't to say it didn't pay off in the end! Anyway, in my search for something "complete" and enticing, I'd run the gamut a bit, so I decided to revisit some old favourites. By some stroke of luck, I decided this story would be my (second) first. It took me a couple of days to get through, and when I saw your post that you'd be removing it from FF just 3 days before I finished re-reading, I figured it was kismet. So, yeah... thanks. I love this Edward "to infinity and beyond." I hope you keep writing. If not on this forum, I'll be looking for you elsewhere. I'm no rookie lurker, after all. Take care.

Stephen Frears
Stephen Frears' new feature 'Philomena', is something of a rarity, based on a true story where the protagonists are still alive and, yet, it is both compassionate and intelligent without any sense of compromise.
Hirokazu Koreeda
Fathers clash and mothers bond in Hirokazu Koreeda's subtle baby switch drama that transcends the sub-genre's usual conventions.
Chika Anadu
Tackling a serious social issue with insight and maturity, Chika Anadu's debut feature focuses on a Nigerian wife under serious pressure to bear a son before it's too late.
Calin Peter Netzer
Calin Peter Netzer's Golden Bear winner, 'Child's Pose', portrays a deeply troubled relationship between an overbearing mother and her adult son and contains a blistering attack on the Romanian nouveau riche.
John Akomfrah
John Akomfrah's remarkable new documentary is a portrait of the influential theorist, Stuart Hall, who has devoted his life to giving Britain's alienated black population a voice.
Asghar Farhadi
Asghar Farhadi's superb third feature, 'Fireworks Wednesday', is currently enjoying wider big screen coverage following the international success of his later 'About Elly' and 'A Separation'.
Noah Baumbach
Noah Baumbach's new feature, a comedy drama starring co-writer, Greta Gerwig, has gentle echoes of other filmmakers from the past but not so as to diminish its freshness.
Robert Mullan
Robert Mullan's survivor guilt feature reduces the Holocaust and its aftermath - albeit unintentionally - to the realms of a melodrama.
Sofia Coppola
A classic case of the truth being stranger than fiction sees seven celebrity obsessed teens, the 'Bling Ring', taking the 'wannabe' culture to a new level, mimicking the Hollywood brat lifestyle with vulgar designer gear nicked from the stars' mansions during daring night-time raids.
Haifaa Al-Mansour
The attention that Haifaa Al- Mansour's feature has received since debuting at Venice is as much to do with its winning blend of childlike charm and knowing subversion as with being Saudi Arabia's first film made by a woman filmmaker.
Sarah Polley
Sarah Polley's semi-documentary investigation strives for an approximation of the truth from various storytelling techniques, where many questions will always remain unanswered, and discovers some kind of a reality between emotion and memory.
James Erskine and Zara Hayes
James Erskine and Zara Hayes return forty years to the most watched tennis match ever, the extravagantly billed Battle of the Sexes, where self-styled male chauvinist, Bobby Riggs, takes on Billie Jean King for a $100,000 winner-takes-all prize and the even more important bragging rights in the fiercely contested gender war raging within the game itself and wider society.
Abbas Kiarostami
Abbas Kiarostami's second feature shot outside of his native Iran is set in a cynical Japanese environment that exposes two generations in crisis.
Andrea Segre
Andrea Segre draws on his documentary roots in this keenly observed tale of an unlikely friendship, set in a Venetian lagoon fishing port where age-old rituals, suspicions and prejudices hold sway and there isn't a tourist in sight.
Olivier Assayas
Olivier Assayas' semi-autobiographical feature returns to early 70's Paris where politicised teenagers passionately confront police and the arch-conservative ruling class, but idealism has run its course and the students splinter into different factions searching for an elusive new reality.
Joshua Oppenheimer (and Christine Cynn)
Joshua Oppenheimer's jaw dropping experimental film/documentary, 'The Act of Killing', gives executioners cart blanche to film their own reenactments of the anti-communist purge within 1960's Indonesia.
Bernardo Bertolucci
Bernardo Bertolucci's first film for a decade is a reflective two-hander looking at adolescence from an unusual angle.
Pedro Almodóvar
Pedro Almodóvar returns to his earlier transgressive comedy style, which once delighted in post-Franco liberation, and sets it loose on Spain's post-meltdown society after years of living beyond its means.
Gus Van Sant
Gus Van Sant's fracking drama, 'Promised Land' amounts to little more than another American corruption thriller dressed in emperor's new clothes.
Jeff Nichols
Jeff Nichols' third feature, steeped in Americana and Deep South mythology, takes a 'Huckleberry Finn' style child's view of a dirt-poor Mississippi fishing community.
Candida Brady
Candida Brady's wake-up call on global waste brings together various environment horror stories and predictions already in the public domain.
Lee Daniels
Lee Daniels follows his soul-stirring crowd pleaser, 'Precious', with a full-on 'trash noir' downer that takes us to the Sixties Deep South and depicts the seedy remains of a society's underbelly immersed in decades old bigotry and Klan-style resentment.
Michael Winterbottom
Michael Winterbottom offers an engaging and, surprisingly, affecting portrayal of Paul Raymond's rise from making up the numbers with a 'two a penny' mind-reading act to Britain's richest man.
François Ozon
A riveting psychological drama falls away under the weight of unnecessary farce when a schoolboy reinvigorates a world weary teacher with a series of playful but disturbing essays.
Harmony Korine
A surreal combo of 'gangsta rap' urban mythology and a highly produced contemporary take on Sixties sexploitation takes us to the sun drenched Florida beaches during the annual college spring break.
Cristian Mungiu
A real exorcism serves as an analogy for the Ceaușescu years and a biting criticism of the Church and contemporary Romanian apathy in Cristian Mungiu's follow up to his Palme d'Or winning '4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days'.
Steven Soderbergh
Corruption and medical ethics collide within a white-collar drugs culture, where bourgeois pushers and users, in all but name, hide behind the air of respectability of dodgy prescriptions.
Pablo Larrain
Pablo Larraín's final instalment of his loose General Pinochet trilogy, superbly fuses archive and new footage but loses too much reality in its post modern smartness.
Quentin Tarantino
Quentin Tarantino's provocative revenge Western dishes out extreme violence and outrageous myth making in a superb post modern attack on Deep South Fascism.
Ben Lewin
John Hawkes, Helen Hunt and William H Macy are superb in this sensitive feature that tackles challenging subject matter with an unpretentious humour and honesty.
Kathryn Bigelow
This follow up to Bigelow's Oscar winning political thriller, 'The Hurt Locker', contains the same urgency, immediacy and crucial vitality in its behind-the-scenes coverage of the biggest manhunt in history.
Lenny Abrahamson
Lenny Abrahamson's third feature is a subtle but devastating portrayal of fear and guilt, the catastrophic consequences of one moment of madness and two very different kinds of parental heartbreak.
Ben Wheatley
A quirky caravan escapade takes us on a tour of Northern England's heritage sites where a brutal killing spree sits side by side with trams and historical pencils in Ben Wheatley's poker-faced pitch black comedy.
David O Russell
David O Russell's smart and sincere romCom where sophistication replaces sentimentality in an unusual portrayal of a dysfunctional family.
Michael Haneke
Michael Haneke's deeply disturbing and engaging portrait of sickness in old age that deservedly won the Palme d'Or.
Paul Thomas Anderson
A resolutely independent deconstruction of a cult closely resembling Scientology depicts American society as torn between extreme fantasy and cynical realism at the onset of the Cold War.
Jacques Audiard
Jacques Audiard takes us to the fringes of society for a contrived sounding love story that nevertheless comes alive on the screen.
Matteo Garrone
Matteo Garrone's smart follow-up to 'Gomorrah' blends gentle satire and neorealism into a surprisingly touching sideways look at our celebrity-wanabee-culture and the transformation of TV into a quasi-religion.
Paolo Taviani and Vittorio Taviani
A major triumph for Paolo and Vittorio Taviani, who subtly use prison rehearsals as a means to stage Shakespeare's 'Julius Caesar' in a modern setting that could not be more relevant.
Alex Gibney
Investigative filmmaker, Alex Gibney, hits hard when looking at the human cost of the sexual abuse scandal in the Catholic church but an exposé of the church's internal policies occasionally feels like yesterday's news.
Ralph Fiennes
The first cinematic adaptation of Shakespeare's final tragedy is a powerful political analogy for our times; savaging both ends of the political spectrum.
David Cronenberg
David Cronenberg's smart and stylish adaptation of Don DeLillo's salvo on Capitalism superbly captures the spirit of our age as a young City Trader encounters the Grim Reaper.
Jean-Marc Vallee
Jean-Marc Vallee trivialises Ron Woodroof's extraordinary real life story fighting AIDS and the American legal system in an unworthy film with a great central performance.
Whit Stillman
Set in a mock Ivy League university that clings onto the authority of the past so as to secure the future for its privileged undergrads, four young belles are hell-bent on reforming the vulgar males contaminating the campus.
Cronenberg neatly turns the tables on Freud and Jung with a careful deconstruction of both egos upon their own terms.
Tim Burton
An 18th century witch proves that 'hell has no fury like a woman scorned' in an outlandish slice of Burton's brand of gothic surrealism.
Terence Davies
A poignant dramatisation of unrequited love at its most desperate is also a depiction of a condemned woman discovering a latent freedom through the courageous assertion of her right to make decisions even those that are self-destructive.
David Foenkinos & Stephane Foenkinos
Debut feature from David and Stéphane Foenkinos based on the former's best selling novel of the same name is a slight but charming odd couple romcom that sees Audrey Tautou combining grief and unexpected amour with consummate ease.
Alexander Payne
Alexander Payne's first film in seven years is a return to familiar themes but with a lighter touch and confidence that allows for a very mature reflection on male vulnerabilities in a changing world.
Carol Morley
A mysterious death triggers an investigation into an enigmatic life, which raises more questions than it answers.
Nicolas Winding Refn
Mega-slick, shiny and retro lying somewhere between post modern pastiche and parody, Nicolas Winding Refn's latest feature provides three male car fantasies for the price of one.
Malgorzata Szumowska
Malgorzata Szumowska's uneven feature on student prostitution and family life in crisis nevertheless has some perceptive insights worthy of a film of greater ambition.
John Turturro
A sub-Woody Allen picture/homage starring the man himself is more enjoyable than the daft plot would suggest but only fully comes alive in fits and starts.
Blow by blow account of the shifting power positions in a dysfunctional blue collar family in this true story of Micky Ward's unlikely rise to welterweight world champion.
Emad Burnat and Guy Davidi
A remarkable feature documentary that takes us to the Palestinian Occupied Territories for an inside track on what it looks and feels like to have your territory appropriated on the back of a law without legitimacy and be cast as an outsider and wrongdoer in a human rights outrage.
Joshua Marston
An unforced slice of social realism from Joshua Marston takes us to the backwaters of rural Albania and the barbaric ancient custom of blood vengeance.
Luc Cote & Patricio Henriquiz
A War on Terror exposé that forces us to lift our heads from the sand and watch a vicious sadist turning a verbal knife very slowly in our name.
A strikingly idiosyncratic quasi-musical from Lenny Abrahamson brings together a nerdy wannabe and a talented misfit in an unlikely friendship with no common ground beyond a spectacular naivety.
Ismael Ferroukhi
Humanity overrides religious differences in the face of extreme adversity as Muslims and Jews collaborate in wartime Paris to sidestep the Nazis.
Josh Fox
Investigative filmmaking at its most effective, as Josh Fox exposes water contamination and political corruption on a frightening scale.
David Fincher
A souped-up marriage melodrama masquerades as a mid-west gothic thriller in David Fincher's smart adaptation of Gillian Flynn's bestselling page turner, 'Gone Girl'.
Pamela Yates
Yates re-visits the terrian of her 1982 seminar documentary, When the Mountains Tremble, in her continuing quest for truth surrounding the former Guatemalan Government's genocide on the Mayan people.
Alfonso Cuarón
Mainstream pastiche is incompatible with Alfonso Cuarón's technical innovation in his sci-fi thriller, 'Gravity'.
Ali Samadi Ahadi
Ahadi's inventive use of multimedia, with appropriate rough edges, depicts the false hope and brutal reprisals following the green movement's challenge to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's Iranian dictatorship.
John Michael McDonagh
John Michael McDonagh's witty Irish crime comedy is a lesson in the art of subversion with the filmmaker being as mischievous as his lead character.
Sion Sono
Sono's concluding part of the Hate trilogy should have been a sophisticated Godardian look at prostitution and capitalism in modern day Japan but becomes close to falling into the world that it is attacking.
Danfung Dennis
Powerful depiction of the full horror of the Afghan frontline and the torment of a badly injured soldier struggling to cope with life back home.
Spike Jonze
No other film has ever tackled e-personae with such penetrating intelligence as this futuristic romCom and it should have won the Oscar.
Bertrand Bonello
A Modernist return to the Belle Époque, made in the style of Alain Resnais but with a political edge more akin to Jean-Luc Godard, the House of Tolerance is a sombre yet resplendent evocation of life in a high-class Parisian brothel.
Alexei Popogrebsky
Opposing sides of the generation divide clash in a post Soviet ideological battleground.
Jeffrey Friedman & Rob Epstein
A biopic that captures the culturally defining moment when Ginsberg exposed the world to his iconic poem, Howl, and its immediate impact.
Martin Scorsese
Martin Scorsese's magical return to the early days of cinema, in the form of a family 3D adventure, is a wonderfully conceived adaptation of Brian Selznick's graphic novel, The Invention of Hugo Cabret by one cinephile for all others.
George Clooney
An intricate political web of their own making traps cynical operators in Clooney's smart revision of the political thriller sub-genre.
Bart Layton
A captivating 'edge of the seat' thriller of a documentary, Bart Layton's debut feature depicts an outrageous real life case of identify theft that would be far too absurd for any fiction.
Susanne Bier
Moral dilemmas arise in parallel cases when action against cruelty moves from prevention to retribution.

On this day in 1764 William Hogarth died, leaving behind The Rake's Progress - but not A Harlot's Progress, which was destroyed in a fire. Since his early work was as bootlegged as a Grateful Dead concert, he promoted a law protecting copyright, still known as "Hogarth's Act".
Niccol Paganini, the demon violinist said to be in league with Beelzebub on account of his devilish technique, was born in 1782; he could cut off a couple of strings in mid-performance - and carry on regardless.
Francis Bacon was born in 1909; his life, like the film Love is the Devil, was Certificate 18, but in 1989 that didn't stop one of his paintings achieving the highest price for a living British artist: $6.27m, in New York.
Don Giovanni was first performed in Prague in 1787. Mozart's philandering hero was carted off to hell by a moving statue, although these days retribution would be left to the Starr Report.
In 1938 gullible Americans fled from a fictitious Martian invasion, thanks to Orson Welles's 1938 radio version of The War of the Worlds by HG Wells, which was convincingly presented as a news story; 60 years later, they all think they've been abducted anyway.
A great meeting of literary minds - and bodies - took place in 1924 when Ford Madox Ford (The Good Soldier) began an affair with Jean Rhys (Wide Sargasso Sea). In 1964 the Windmill Theatre near Piccadilly Circus - slogan, "We Never Closed" - closed.
The painter of sticklike characters, LS Lowry, was born in 1887, in what was, in pre-Thatcher days, an industrial landscape. Until retirement, he never gave up his day job as a rent collector and chief cashier.Reuse content

Abbey National could be in line for another fine for breaches of the Financial Services Authority's regulations, just six months after it received a £2.3m penalty for falling foul ofmoney-laundering rules.
The bank is set to come under the FSA's spotlight again after the arrest of an independent financial adviser (IFA) who is alleged to have defrauded his clients by covertly transferring more than £1.2m of their savings into his own Abbey bank account. Clients of the adviser allege that they were asked to make cheques payable to Abbey, which they believed were being paid into savings accounts under their own names. Instead, however, the IFA is alleged to have convinced Abbey to pay the money into his own account.
The process is alleged to have been repeated many times, involving about 20 clients over more than a decade. However, Abbey is believed to have taken no steps to prevent the practice.
A financial regulation expert from one of the top four accountancy firms said that banks are obliged to have systems in place to spot abnormal account activities, and to ensure they know their clients. He said that if steps were not taken to challenge the IFA over the repeated use of the unusual method of payment and over the large sums of money flowing in and out of his account, the bank could be found in breach of FSA regulations and would be likely to receive a fine. He added that it was possible that Abbey would fall foul of the same money-laundering regulations they were found in breach of last year.
The news will come as an embarrassment to the FSA, having seen an offender slip through the net so soon after it was penalised for breaches of its regulations.
The expert added that such practices could not have taken place through any of the major clearing banks. However, he said the antiquated systems of the former and current building societies were not always as robust.
The clients of the IFA are now calling for compensation from Abbey, and are threatening to sue if the bank does not pay up. They are arguing that having made their cheques payable to Abbey, it was the bank who was ultimately responsible for paying them to the wrong person.
One client told The Independent how he lost £28,000 through the alleged fraud. Abbey and the FSA said they were unable to comment.

The St. Helens School Board in Oregon lifted a ban that had prevented teachers with concealed carry permits from carrying their guns on campus.
School board chairman Marshall Porter said, "The current law in Oregon allows for anyone to concealed carry on school grounds. To exclude our staff seems like they're being punished. They should have a right to protect themselves if they choose."
According to ABC News, the decision impacts seven schools within the St. Helens School District. This includes "two elementary schools, one middle school, one high school, and three alternative schools."

1. Before Justin Timberlake began his "very serious" acting career, he was in a little movie called "Model Behavior" that forever changed the world as we know it.
2. The movie starts with "Here We Go," so we know right off the bat it's gonna be something special.
3. It features outfits like these two…
4. There's also this super rude guy who asks our heroine to get outta his way in the first two minutes and then we're supposed to root for him as the love interest to our other heroine.
5. Within the first five minutes we get a pager reference and "Teen Flare" magazine!
6. Plus, freaking KATHIE LEE GIFFORD PLAYS THE MODEL'S MOM!
7. What I'm saying is this movie about an ordinary girl who trades places with a supermodel is a gem!
8. So, let's dive in! Janine Adams just wants to eat fried dumplings and have a normal life. High School student Alex Burroughs wants to quit being invisible/go to fashion school.
9. Good thing they look exactly like each other! Stuff is about to get REAL!
10. First, Alex as Janine is WAY nicer to her assistant. Her assistant, BTW, deserves all the awards!
11. Then, Janine as Alex can eat all the starches she wants. This movie might not have the healthiest relationship with food, for either character.
12. The great outfits just keep on coming!
13. Then there's this creepy scene where a photographer loves how modest a teenage supermodel is.
14. Be still my beating heart, here comes JT rocking a leather jacket (but he's no bad boy).
15. "All that stuff about you and me turning that island shoot into our own personal 'Blue Lagoon' that was totally my publicist talking." A line of dialogue that JT had to memorize.
16. Meanwhile, Janine is super mean now and rude boy TOTALLY LOVES IT!
18. BTW this movie is set in New York, partially.
19. So Janine is all "You're hot for a high schooler and I appreciate that you're a teen movie jock stereotype I can see right through. Ask me out, commoner!"
20. So, both girls get big dates on Saturday and decide not to switch back just yet. Also Janine refers to Jason Sharp as a "frat packer" because HIGH SCHOOL!
21. Oh, but the little bro overhears the whole thing!
22. So Alex goes on her fancy date with JT…
23. And Janine learns that Rude Boy (it's Eric, I guess I should say at this point) is the type of guy who honks to let his date know he's there.
So, this part is sort of inconsequential, but the random paparazzi banter is really topnotch (pictured above). Anyway, no one wants to take a picture of Janine as Alex and these lovers can't get a table.
25. So we learn that Jason Sharp is actually just doing the model thing to pay for grad school (you know, the best way to humanize someone) for Astronomy (LOL!).
27. There's a mirror gag we must never speak of and both girls switch places again and are mean to each other's dates. Alex's bro films the whole thing.
28. Eventually, both ladies get their dream dates!
30. There's some stuff about disappointing friends, family members, fashion designers, and fashion institute admissions advisers.
Alex gets Janine fired.
Janine basically destroys Alex's relationship with her family, her friends, her teachers and possibly also destroys her future. Equal.
33. Then Alex's brother threatens to show the tape of Alex and Janine switching to the world.
34. Alex tries to come clean, but instead just puts her hair up confusing both JT and Eric in the process. JT thinks Janine is cheating. Eric thinks Alex is cheating. It's a mess.
37. So, the girls switch back and go back to their terrible, broken, lives.
40. So even though Janine got Alex grounded, she uses it to her advantage and decides to go to the dance instead. Whatevs they both end up at the dance anyway.
44. EVERYTHING goes down at this dance! Plus there's some more great background banter. "Which one is which?"
47. Eric is predictably disgusting when he finds out he dated a model. I only take comfort in the fact that Janine will bore of him soon.
48. Alex gets her man!
52. In the end, we learn that neither of these girls is anybody's angel.
53. Or something like that.

The A340 being utilised for the route is configured with 256 economy seats, with a seat pitch of 31.8 inches, and 30 "XL" seats, with 60-inch seat pitch.
With a standard fare well below half the level of most of its longhaul competitors and introductory fares which make a joke of airfares on the route, the airline could revolutionise travel between Australasia/Southeast Asia and London.
The high density aircraft's business - "XL" - seating, are also priced well below normal low economy prices.
The airline will also operate cargo service carrying approximately 8,000 kg of cargo per flight. IAM, Network Cargo Services, FlyUs, Global Cargo Management and ACT is acting as the carrier's cargo sales agents in Western Europe, with cargo handling at London Stansted will be carried out by Aviance.
AirAsia X, CAPA's New Airline of the Year, benefits from a level of traffic feed which has been absent from other longhaul, low cost operations which have failed in recent months. This should provide it with greater resilience than the other models. Its part ownership by Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Group also provides a certain level of underpinning.
With its Asia-wide network, AirAsia provides (non-interline) links into the AirAsia X services over the Kuala Lumpur Airport hub, as well as a number of Asian and Australian longhaul sectors already operated by AirAsia X itself using its A330 equipment.
AirAsia X launched its first service in Nov-07 to Australia's Gold Coast, using a leased A330. It has since launched Hangzhou (Feb-08), Perth (Nov-08) and Melbourne (Nov-08) services.
The carrier has ordered 25 A330-300s, the first of which was introduced on the Melbourne route.
At the London end, the carrier also plans to spin off the high number of LCC services based out of Stansted in order to support its Europe-originating sectors.
In many ways the airline could not be starting at a worse time, with the word now entering a "Great Recession". But on the other hand, heightened consumer pricing sensitivity, combined with lower fuel prices, could be precisely the model that responds to consumer needs.
Time will tell.

Every family has its problems. But even among the most troubled, the Plumb family stands out as spectacularly dysfunctional. Years of simmering tensions finally reach a breaking point on an unseasonably cold afternoon in New York City as Melody, Beatrice, and Jack Plumb gather to confront their charismatic and reckless older brother, Leo, freshly released from rehab. Months earlier, an inebriated Leo got behind the wheel of a car with a nineteen-year-old waitress as his passenger. The ensuing accident has endangered the Plumbs joint trust fund, "The Nest," which they are months away from finally receiving. Meant by their deceased father to be a modest mid-life supplement, the Plumb siblings have watched The Nest's value soar along with the stock market and have been counting on the money to solve a number of self-inflicted problems.
Melody, a wife and mother in an upscale suburb, has an unwieldy mortgage and looming college tuition for her twin teenage daughters. Jack, an antiques dealer, has secretly borrowed against the beach cottage he shares with his husband, Walker, to keep his store open. And Bea, a once-promising short-story writer, just can't seem to finish her overdue novel. Can Leo rescue his siblings and, by extension, the people they love? Or will everyone need to reimagine the future they've envisioned? Brought together as never before, Leo, Melody, Jack, and Beatrice must grapple with old resentments, present-day truths, and the significant emotional and financial toll of the accident, as well as finally acknowledge the choices they have made in their own lives.
This is a story about the power of family, the possibilities of friendship, the ways we depend upon one another and the ways we let one another down. In this tender, entertaining, and deftly written debut, Sweeney brings a remarkable cast of characters to life to illuminate what money does to relationships, what happens to our ambitions over the course of time, and the fraught yet unbreakable ties we share with those we love.

Lydia Hunt is familiar with the concept of sin. Reared beneath the strictures of religious zealotry and abuse, she has heard again and again that her nature is wicked and her soul bound for eternal damnation. But when she is sent to work at Mowbray Hall, ancestral home of the enigmatic Lord Cailvairt, Lydia begins to fear just how wicked she might be.
For although Cailvairt makes no effort to hide his pursuit of her, his insistence on challenging the ideals imposed upon her as a child―even while speaking to her as an equal―leaves it difficult for Lydia to resist his attentions. As her inhibitions crumble away and the foundation of her beliefs threatens to falter, she must determine if giving into temptation will destroy her... or be the act that saves her.

Suddenly Amy's days are no longer filled with meetings and upscale tastings, but with put-together PTA moms, puke-ridden playdates, and dirty dishes. Her husband has locked himself in the garage in order to write the Great American Screenplay, while both kids are steaming mad at her because she insists on dressing them like normal people and won't give up sending them to school with healthy lunches.
It's becoming clear that Amy may just be the world's most incompetent mother, and she's beginning to wonder if the only thing she's good for is bringing home the bacon. When salvation appears in the form of a movie-mogul ex-boyfriend who wants to employ her husband and rekindle their relationship, Amy starts to find she's sorely tempted . . .
One thing is certain: whatever happens, she's going to need a lot more caffeine.

When she arrives at the famed Barbizon Hotel in 1952, secretarial school enrollment in hand, Darby McLaughlin is everything her modeling agency hall mates aren't: plain, self-conscious, homesick, and utterly convinced she doesn't belong--a notion the models do nothing to disabuse. Yet when Darby befriends Esme, a Barbizon maid, she's introduced to an entirely new side of New York City: seedy downtown jazz clubs where the music is as addictive as the heroin that's used there, the startling sounds of bebop, and even the possibility of romance.
Over a half century later, the Barbizon's gone condo and most of its long-ago guests are forgotten. But rumors of Darby's involvement in a deadly skirmish with a hotel maid back in 1952 haunt the halls of the building as surely as the melancholy music that floats from the elderly woman's rent-controlled apartment. It's a combination too intoxicating for journalist Rose Lewin, Darby's upstairs neighbor, to resist--not to mention the perfect distraction from her own imploding personal life. Yet as Rose's obsession deepens, the ethics of her investigation become increasingly murky, and neither woman will remain unchanged when the shocking truth is finally revealed.

orchestra baobab
Recorded in 1982 and rereleased in 2001, 'Pirate's Choice' is the legendary album by Senegalese band Orchestra Baobab, the resident band of night club Baobab in Dakar throughout the '70s.
Their music has been called Afro-Cuban-Caribbean fusion, which at least sums up some of their influences. Songs in both French and Spanish as wells as Wolof provide frameworks for extended jamming and some of the most mellow guitar solos ever.
Highly recommended!
Also: the album's rerelease sparked a reunion of the band and a new album: 'Specialist in all Styles'.

Kenneth Noland Galerie Charles Lienhard, Zürich, März 1962
first edition Softcover
1962 · Zürich
by Goossen, E. C.
Zürich: Galerie Charles Lienhard. Very Good. 1962. First Edition. Softcover. (8) pages; Publisher's pictorial wrappers. Text (in English) by E. C> Goossen, full page portrait of the artist, and four full page b/w plates depicting paintings. An interesting European exhibition catalogue for Kenneth Noland [1924-2010] -- a member of the early generation of New York School Abstract Expressionist artists, who passed through a period where he was thought of as a minimalist, and finally, was a co-founder of the Washington school of color field painters. This large, but slender catalogue from Zürich illustrates four (b/w) plates of target paintings by Noland, along with a full page photographic portrait of the artist. Following service in the US Army Air Corps during World War II, Noland used his benefits from the G. I. Bill to study art at Black Mountain College in his home state of North Carolina, where Noland studied with Ilya Bolotowsky, a professor who introduced him to neoplasticism and the work of Piet Mondrian. There, Noland also studied Bauhaus theory and color under Josef Albers and became interested in Paul Klee. This Swiss catalogue from the spring of 1962 predates Noland's great break-out into success. In 1964, he was included in the exhibition Post-Painterly Abstraction curated by Clement Greenberg, which traveled the country and helped to firmly establish Color Field painting. Also in 1964, Noland occupied half the American pavilion at the Venice Biennale. Nearly fine and fresh. . (Inventory #: 39888)

Stay away. Far far away.
Please spend your money and insurance's money elsewhere. Find a PCP who treats you as a whole person, not as a problem and inconvenience. This office has had significant turn over in their staffing and lost their best physician, only to have a nurse practitioner to be the replacement. Which is fine, but a nurse practitioner can not do everything an M.D. can do. The move was a business move to save money. They worry a bunch about their overhead and forget that it is the patient who pays their bills to keep the lights on. Not in the best interest of the patient(s), obviously. This office is going downhill....and fast. Plus the docs don't know much about the hard stuff, so if you're complex, don't waste your time.

Professional and Personable
My husband and I have been seeing Dr. Gopal for about two years. She has been thorough, kind, professional and knowledgeable. We have been fortunate not to need her except for routine care. However, while in California recently, I found myself in a crisis situation in which I needed a refill on some medication. Dr. Gopal, the staff and nurse were very sympathetic and by the end of the day the refill was ready for pickup at a local pharmacy.

Dr. Gopal was extremely kind and thorough. I went in for a yearly physical and to establish a new PCP. I found the staff to be friendly, the facilities clean, and Dr. Gopal was great. Would highly recommend her based on my first experience.

Good doctor, bad staff
Office staff members told me twice over two weeks they would call me back but never did. Inexcusable. If they're too busy to return calls they shouldn't say they will and offer another arrangement instead.

Great Doctor
I didn't get an actual diagnosis, but that's because the pain went away before my appointment to discuss test results! There was a mix on the day of the appointment (the dr wasn't in?) so they went ahead and gave me the results. Once I saw the ultrasound was normal I didn't bother to reschedule.No sooner than the nurse stepped out after taking vitals, Dr Gopal peeked in and said she'd be right in. Not even two minutes later she was in to see me. She was very through, explained what she was thinking, what tests could be done, what she was ordering, and why. She was also very upfront about the fact that my problem could have been a number of things (why she thought of each as the potential problem) and was honest about not being able to make a dx right away.I also like that she was not so quick to give medication in attempt to mask the issue.

Oklahoma County Sheriff's deputies say Joseph Jimenez failed to stop for a traffic violation and evaded officers by leading them down dirt roads in his white pickup truck. Dirt kicked up by the vehicles made pursuit difficult. When deputies reached the truck, the driver had already left the scene on foot.
Joseph Jimenez was arrested when he called police to report his truck stolen. Dispatchers recognized the description of the vehicle and advised the caller to meet at a specific intersection for a deputy to take a stolen vehicle report.
The man was arrested at the intersection, where a deputy recognized him from the morning chase. Jimenez had cuts on his face that suggested he had been running through the woods that led from where the truck was left earlier that day.
Deputies say Jimenez faces charges of driving under the influence, resisting arrest, and attempting to elude deputies.

12 Classic Rock Isolated Guitar Tracks [VIDEO]
Ever wanted to listen to a guitar god playing your favorite classic rock tunes, and ONLY the guitar god?
Ever wanted to listen to a guitar god playing your favorite classic rock tunes, and ONLY the guitar god?
A keyboard technician for the Who suggests that the band's set at this year's Glastonbury Festival was sabotaged.
Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey have been clear about the Who's 50th anniversary dates marking the end of the band's large-scale touring, but in a new interview with MOJO, Townshend goes a step further, suggesting he's ready to close the book on the group completely.
On May 16, 1969, Pete Townshend kicked a man off the Who's stage. Turned out he was a plain clothes policeman. Oops.
Just because you're great at something doesn't mean it's fun for you. Just ask Pete Townshend.
Kenney Jones, a former drummer with the Small Faces and the Faces, later admitted that the very idea of anyone replacing Keith Moon in the Who was ludicrous.
The Who will release a concert film from Oct. 13, 1982, for the first time as part of their 50th anniversary celebration.
Pete Townshend's new classical version of "Love Reign O'er Me" reworks the Who's 1973 classic features the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, but no Roger Daltrey.
Life on the road can get painfully complicated for rockers of a certain age, and Roger Daltrey has the doctor bills to prove it.
On April 22, 1969, the Who performed their new work, 'Tommy,' for the first time.
It's been nearly a decade since the Who released their most recent LP, 2006's Endless Wire, and it still looks like it'll be a while before fans hear another new album from Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey.
The Who have started other tours believing they were bidding farewell to the road, but Roger Daltrey knows the group's 50th anniversary dates are definitely the "last big tour we'll ever do."
