A gargantuan, mind-altering comedy about the Pursuit of Happiness in America set in an addicts' halfway house and a tennis academy, and featuring the most endearingly screwed-up family to come along in recent fiction, Infinite Jest explores essential questions about what entertainment is and why it has come to so dominate our lives; about how our desire for entertainment affects our need to connect with other people; and about what the pleasures we choose say about who we are.
Equal parts philosophical quest and screwball comedy, Infinite Jest bends every rule of fiction without sacrificing for a moment its own entertainment value. It is an exuberant, uniquely American exploration of the passions that make us human - and one of those rare books that renew the idea of what a novel can do.
Please note: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material, including endnotes, will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.
A Note from Hachette Audio
We are deeply honored to be the audio publisher of David Foster Wallace's works, and are keenly aware of the great responsibility that attends the privilege. We felt that it was important to make Infinite Jest accessible in the audio format as soon as we were able, and are gratified to find that there is an audience that has been waiting for just this occasion.
Some early listeners have been disappointed that the novel's endnotes are currently available only in text form, to be read. Choosing to include the endnotes as a downloadable PDF file, rather than as a recording by the narrator, was a difficult decision for all involved, and we debated different options at length before beginning production. The audio format allows us great opportunities to showcase Wallace's love of language and grammatical dexterity, to illuminate characters and their relationships, and to bring out some of the unique humor inherent in his work. However, there are also certain limitations to the format, and we needed let go of some of our preconceived notions about the form of Infinite Jest, as we must when we adapt any complex work to audio.
The compromise we ended up with was heavily influenced by practical concerns, especially those regarding the limitations of current technology. Because some of the endnotes are pages-long digressions, if we had them read in line with the main narrative, we would have run the risk of making the already complex story unfollowable for listeners. In the end, we decided the audiobook would flow best by having the endnotes indicated by number throughout the narrative by an additional narrator. However, we acknowledge that these choices may not work for all listeners. Accordingly, our future plans are to produce the endnotes as an additional, stand-alone audio piece.

"[A]n exhilarating, breathtaking experience. This book teems with so much life and death, so much hilarity and pain, so much gusto in the face of despair that one cheers for the future of our literature." (Newsday)
"[A] postmodern saga of damnation and salvation…resourceful, hilarious, intelligent, and unique." (The Atlantic Monthly)
"[C]ompulsively entertaining… one of the big talents of his generation, a writer of virtuosic skills who can seemingly do anything." (New York Times)
If it weren't for Audible I'd never get any reading done.
"I waited years for this audiobook"
I waited a long time to read Infinite Jest since I depend heavily on audiobooks to keep up on my reading???I have a long commute, a busy job, kids, etc.???so I was very glad to see IJ become available. Having spent a month making my way through it with the audiobook AND a kindle version, reading every footnote, using Internet wikis to keep track of the story, exceptional vocabulary and references, I declare that I loved the book. It's a Ulysses for the 90's, combining erudition and a pop culture sensibility.
The reader does OK. He puts on some good Boston accents, but he's clearly no French speaker. There are some annoying edits inserted around the first half or so, as some producer clearly freaked out and made him correct the pronunciation of several French phrases and DFW's patented weird vocabulary. Still, give the poor bastard some credit--this must have taken him a month to record.
I understand the decision to leave out the footnotes, but it does seem like corner-cutting. If DFW were still alive, I bet he would have called for some clever compromise, such as putting the footnotes on a separate audio file in a different voice, or writing some comments for the reader to add, such as "That's just an explanation of the drug he's taking," or "Seriously, don't skip this one." Audiobook makers seem to forget that their products are performances like any other, and need not be a literal recitation treating the text as a sacred object.

"Removing Endnotes Does NOT Equal Unabridged!"
1. This audiobook is not unabridged.
2. It has no endnotes.
3. Endnotes are an essential part of this novel.
4. Understand the difficulty of including endnotes in an audiobook, but alas, if you are going to call it unabridged, it better BE unabridged.
5. Not sure if DFW would have allowed the endnotes to be stripped.
6. Frustrated.
7. Irritated.
8. Disquieted.
9. A little irritated about 2 credits (and did I mention no endnotes?)
10. Ibid.
11. "The challenge in editing David Foster Wallace was the difficulty of wrangling his prose and narrative structure, which were often purposefully peripatetic and disjointed (in the best sense of the word), without disrupting the writing's pacing or diluting its effect, which Wallace intended as a numbing overload to the reader's faculties comparable to the overwhelming 'constant monologue inside your own head.'"*
12. Crap.
13. "The following pieces were published in edited, heavily edited, or (in at least one instance) bowdlerized form." The "bowdlerized" piece, "Host," was about a right-wing radio personality, and Wallace was also frustrated by the abridgement of "Up, Simba," the story he wrote about John McCain's 2000 presidential campaign and, he insisted on publishing a web edition of his full article.**
14. There are options for including footnotes in audiobooks.
15. In 'Consider the Lobster' another DFW book the producer used a phone filter for footnotes (which ARE included).
16. Susanna Clarke's novel, "Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell" (Audio Renaissance), recorded footnotes.
17. There is a great New York Times piece on the challenges of footnotes and endnotes (and pictures and maps) in audiobooks***
18. The same New York Times piece has a great quote from DFW in reference to his endnotes: "Most poetry is written to ride on the breath, and getting to hear the poet read it is kind of a revelation and makes the poetry more alive. But with certain literary narrative writers like me, we want the writing to sound like a brain voice, like the sound of the voice inside of the head, and the brain voice is faster, is absent any breath, and it holds together grammatically rather than sonically."
19. Claudia Howard, in the same New York Times piece argues that an "audiobook is a monologue that should be kept intact".
20. Another part of the New York Times article referenced above in note 17, "So single-minded is Mr. Wallace, who is 43, about how his work looks over how it sounds that at his first public reading in the late 1980's, 'I inserted the punctuation,' he recalled, adding: 'I would read a clause and say 'comma' or 'semicolon.' Or I'd say, 'new paragraph' and 'indent.' Now looking back at it I can see what a silent deal this is for me.' At one point in 'Consider the Lobster,' Mr. Wallace encounters an ellipsis and reads "dot, dot, dot," which producers say is verboten. "Part of it is I'm not an actor and I don't know how to trail off, and I become somewhat autistic about it," he said."
21. There is a great example in this piece showing how DFW handled endnotes/footnotes.****
22. Cutting the Endnotes disrespects notes 23, 24, and 25.

24. Author
25. Reader
"Could you make footnotes available in audioformat?"
I would not cut anything.
It is really awesome that you have made a audiobook of Infinite Jest. But leaving out the endnotes is a really bad choice as it makes this audiobook hard to listen. I can not stop and read a pdf file in a middle of a bike ride or car trip. You decision makes this audiobook unusable!
rather boring
"good if you already read the book."
I would recommend this to anyone who has already read the book, the lack of end notes takes away so much of the humor and plot nuances that I would be hard pressed to send a new reader to this audiobook, though.
One of many reasons IJ was difficult for me is the anachronistic chapter order and quick changes in tone. Where this audiobook excels is at being able to switch gears immediately between a chapter that describes in such agonizing detail the nervy feeling of withdrawal then switching to an amusing recount of a robbery gone wrong which in reading the book I had difficulty switching my mental voice fast enough to a chipper shade after being taken so low to find the humor in there. Some of the more difficult chapters (for me) were the soliloquies like Hal's gran'pa discussing the end of his tennis career with Himself or the early Ebonics ridden chapter about Wardine which are done very, very well and make these much easier to navigate and parse for plot points (I am surprised at the low narrator scores actually) and the Steeply/Marathe conversation, which despite being a perfectly natural conversation was hard to read naturally in my head (I tend to struggle reading things written in any dialect and we will consider 'drunk' a dialect).On the downside, keeping track of the chronology is tougher in audio form and lack of footnotes is painful (I bought the ebook and pause to flip over on my iPod to read the notes because I am nerdy that way).
To repeat, great if you've read it before but lack of end notes is severely crippling to a lot of what the book has to offer if you are a first time reader (though i can see if you are hitting a wall with the novel how the audiobook could carry you through and make rereading the book a total rediscovery since you would have some idea of plot and be willing to stop and smell the roses).
"Omission of end notes gives me the howling fantods"
I do not understand why Hachette Audio would undertake the monumental task of producing Infinite Jest as an audiobook and choose to omit the end notes. I have been looking forward to this audio release for some time and I am greatly disappointed by this decision. Infinite Jest is an important book and a LONG one and anyone interested in investing 56 hours in it, I can assure you, is interested in the end notes. I enjoy Sean Pratt as a narrator. I appreciate the work that went into recording this book, and I truly hope Hachette considers an updated release WITH END NOTES.
"Pratt's reading is virtuoso performance"
Listening to Infinite Jest is an experience of hearing the work of a virtuoso performer. These 900+ pages include four-page paragraphs (3000 words) which Pratt reads in a way that keeps them engaging and fresh from beginning to end. The same can be said about his reading of the entire novel.
His accomplishment can't be fully appreciated without reading a few pages of the text while he performs it. I find myself listening to random selections from the download two or three times, and I enjoy listening to the words and sentences without concern about how the fit into something larger. I don't think I've ever done this with another book.
"*broken record* Footnotes!"
I was hesitant about undertaking Infinite Jest as an audio book. I had read half of the book and was finding it difficult to pick it back up and read. I started over with the audio book and I'm glad I did. Having first read half of the book I was able to ease myself into listening to it. I wasn't sure that the epic scale of the "story" would be able to exist as an audio book, but it certainly did. I understand why the footnotes were left out for the sake of the "narrative" but I found it difficult switching back and forth between the print and the audio. I agree with some of the other reviews that the footnotes should exist as a separate audio track to be switched back and forth.
Despite my frustrations with the footnotes I think this book should be required reading (listening)
"Have actual book handy"
I had already read the book, but knew that there was more to enjoy. Audible did the trick.
Please, ask me which of my children I prefer. It would be easier.
Pratt did an amazing job with this very complicated book.
Let's not ruin the book by letting Hollywood have its way with it.
In a very imperfect world, this book comes very close to perfect
"Peculiar book"
This is another book that I put in my player to have ready at 3:00 AM when I'm having trouble getting back to sleep. It's rambling, disconnected, over written, under planned.
"Excellent Audiobook, Albeit Pricey"
This is a great title that sounds better spoken than it looks on page.
However, Infinite Jest contains nearly 400 footnotes that convey invaluable plot information. The audiobook does NOT contain these, although it does contain references to them. This means that this audiobook is an excellent companion to the text, but you WILL NOT understand the narrative if attempt to only listen to this audiobook, while never purchasing the text and checking the footnotes.
The way I did it, Infinite Jest's 1000+ pages of 8 point font with no white space on the page is awful hard to make it through. Listening to the audiobook greatly sped up what would have been a six month reading project. Alternate this with reading.

The Cotswolds - Korea Friendship Trail: England's First Twin Trail
The Cotswold Way National Trail has teamed up with South Koreas Jeju Olle to become one of the worlds first friendship trails.
Friendship Trail Launch, Stinchcombe Hill, 19th April 2011
This new initiative is a result of last years World Trails conference on Jeju Island, attended by the Cotswold Way and hosted by the Jeju Olle trail, a new and breathtakingly beautiful long distance walking route around the coast of the island. One of the many ideas discussed at the conference and earlier in the year when the Cotswold Way played host to representatives of the Jeju Olle Foundation, was the concept of friendship trails. These are essentially similar to twin towns, whereby trails in different countries team up in the name of partnership, mutual publicity and international alliance. The Cotswolds Korea Friendship Trail is one of the first twin trails in the world, and it is hoped that the idea will spread across the globe, promoting understanding and walking, whilst boosting tourism and local economy.
This is a real opportunity to promote international friendship and cooperation. We are proud to be joining up with Jeju Olle, and hope this special relationship will benefit people, landscapes and conservation in both our countries. James Blockley, National Trail Officer for the Cotswold Way.
Walking on Jeju Olle
The Korean half of the Friendship Trail was launched at the second World Trails Conference in early November. Following Route 3 of Jeju Olle, it is marked with a wooden fingerpost of the same design as those so familiar along the Cotswold Way. Whilst helping to promote the Cotswolds as the perfect destination for foreign walking holidays, it will stand as a reminder of how walking routes can cross international boundaries.
Friendship Trail Launch, Jeju, November 2011
Jeju Olle is a series of walking routes on Jeju Island, 130km off the southwest coast of Korea. This beautiful UNESCO World Heritage Site is almost sub-tropical in climate, its scenery passing from windswept coastline, through countless tangerine groves criss-crossed by distinctive stone walls, and up to the 6,400 foot peak of Hallasan. Work on the trail began in 2006 when a dedicated group of volunteers began seeking out a way of promoting access to the coastline of Jeju, discovering old paths and creating new ones. For more information, visit their English language website here...
A short circular walk following the Cotswold Way around Stinchcombe Hill near Dursley has been signed with special markers, introducing people to one of the most scenic parts of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, whilst raising awareness of walking in other countries. There are many similarities between the two routes and it is hoped that teaming up in this way will promote understanding and tourism on both sides.
Friendship Trail Marker Disc
Following the Friendship Trail could not be simpler as it keeps to the Cotswold Way for its entire length. To make it even easier, a special marker disc (see picture) has been added to selected Cotswold Way posts to mark the Friendship Trail and guide you round the route. Click here to download the walk...
Friendship Trail Launch ('Ganse' sign in middle)
The symbol of Jeju Olle, known as Ganse, takes the form of a Jeju pony and appears on signs for the trail in Korea. The name comes from the old Jeju dialect gansedari which translates as slow lazy-bones'. This is no coincidence, as one of the main aims of Jeju Olle is to encourage people to be more like the Jeju ponies and slow down to appreciate the wonderful surroundings of the island at a slower pace.
Whilst you enjoy the mini Jeju Olle around Stinchcombe Hill, spare a few minutes to consider how walking can bring people and landscapes together the world over, and how the experience is essentially the same whether you walk in the Cotswolds or Korea. Above all, let your walk remind you that there is a corner of a foreign field that will remain forever Cotswolds...
Jeju Olle scenic viewpoint
Links and other useful information:
Jeju Olle will introduce you to one of the world's most beautiful and fascinating islands, but there is a wealth of other breathtaking scenery across South Korea waiting to welcome you. Go to the 'Visit Korea Year' or the 'Korea: Be Inspired' websites for further information.
If you are planning to walk the friendship trail you could also consider a few holes at Stinchcombe Hill Golf Club, where you'd receive a warm welcome and enjoy a different way to appreciate the fantastic countryside and scenery. Visit their website here for more information.
After walking round the hill, you may also be interested in the work of the Stinchcombe Hill Trust, a voluntary body set up in 1930 to safeguard the site for public access for walking and enjoyment. It is largely down to this group that we are able to enjoy Stinchcombe Hill as it is today.

The Zeros rocked the Brooksider on Saturday night, bringing their energetic show and moving the crowd late into the night. Once the show was over, there was a wild dance party downstairs that lasted until bar close. My first time to Brooksider, definitely won't be my last. A highly recommended bar.

I've found you can actually run on ice or packed snow a lot better than you can walk on it. I think it's becuase your feet pretty much stay below your center of mass when running as opposed to walking. You need to slow down and not worry about pace on the messy days, but you can manage. The bigger problem for me is not slipping and falling but stepping on a chunk of ice or snow and rolling an ankle. And crampons won't help with that.
Here's what I was talkin bout: http://www.roadrunnersports.com/rrs/products/SUR003/ Never tried 'em and you'll have to get over that they're called "Joggers."
Last Saturday I had a couple of "oh shit" moments during my run (just slowly mincing along, too--and my abs and lower back were pretty sore for the next 24 hours from all the extra effort staying balanced).
Roads were made for journeys...
Just think of it as a bonus "core" workout...
Take your protein pill and put your helmet on.
It's all relative. I have friends from Buffalo who lived in MA & they would always crack up how quickly schools get cancelled because of a few inches of snow around here but, I had another buddy from CA who would freak out anytime we'd get a little bit of sleet.
If the Ice Joggers or Yak Traxx only last a season, so what? It beats being stuck inside.

Unable to send a call from Speech Server
Thursday, 1 November 2007 1:34 AM
I'm trying to build an application that can call someone inside or outside my organisation.
I've installed speech server and I can call from communicator the sample application installed by default.
I've installed the outboundcallcampaign application and the outboundcalls but both of them only take digits as inputs and this is not recognised by OCS as the SIP invite being sent on the OCS server is "sip:firstname.lastname@example.com:5061;user=phone;transport=tls"
I'd like to have the invite beeing routed to a communicator client so that a user on communicator can anwser the call.
Thanks for your inputs.

The OutboundCalls sample app use a MakeCall activity to place the outgoing call. This activity has a "CalledParty" property which can be either a Phone number (only digits) or a SipUri. You can easily change it's type and value in the property window of the designer. In code, you can do
.makeCall.CalledParty = new SipUriTelephonyAddress(new Microsoft.SpeechServer.SipUri("sip:firstname.lastname@example.com")); -
Friday, 2 November 2007 1:12 AM
Thanks Anthony,
In my environnement, I use "ucvoip.fr" as my SIP domain. However if I look correctly at the traces, speech server does not perform any dns resolution and tries to contact directly the host based on the domain part of the user uri.
If I use : sip:email@example.com then speech server tries to reach a host called ucvoip.fr
Do we have a way to say that my OCS server accepting incoming invites is different from the domain part of the URI ?
Damien Caro
Friday, 2 November 2007 9:20 AM
The MakeCall activity has a property ProxyName. Set this to the name of your SipPeer and your outbound call will go to that SipPeer, regardless of the SipUri. Note that this does tie your application to the deployed configuration.
Wednesday, 5 November 2008 9:59 PM
I am having the same issue with the domain user name and the ocs server name.
I know it was a while ago, if you still remember, could you please tell us how/if you solved this issue?
BTW, I tried the proxy and it didn't work.

Camelot Unchained, a game for Mystical Awakening?
Pilgrim posted Apr 6, 13
For those not living under a rock I am sure you have seen that the kickstarter from the (in)famous Mark Jacobs for his new game Camelot Unchained. It has gone active last week and is now boasting well over $890k pledged.W e have some people that are indeed living under a rock, or who haven't looked at the game at all due to Jacobs. So let me shed a bit of light on this game with some bullet points followed up with questions.
Camelot Unchained is in a way the spiritual successor of Dark Age of Camelot, the game by some to be named the PvP MMO due to it's 3 faction pvp, realm pride and the fact that small groups could hold off large groups and all that kind of stuff (this is from hearsay as I never touched DAoC!). So what will Dark Age.. oh Camelot Unchained bring to the table?

Thanks for welcoming me, Eric!
Thanks, Eric! My zine has some sci-fi themes or flavour, although I don't know to what extent (I just can never tell the boundaries between genres and their ideas). Let me post a link in the group's page for all the members to decide. Cheers!
Hi Eric,
Nice to meet you. I'm still working on my zine... looks like it's going to be awhile! HAHA!

Sleep apnoea in babies and children
New parents all know that moment: watching your angel sleeping in her crib so soundly, you begin to wonder if she is actually breathing. While it is common and normal for babies to have short breaks from breathing as they sleep, your baby may actually have sleep apnoea.
What is sleep apnoea?
Sleep apnoea is a potentially serious sleep disorder caused by abnormal pauses in breathing during asleep. There are two types of sleep apnoea:
- Central apnoea - this occurs when there are problems in the mechanisms in the brain that control breathing.
- Obstructive sleep apnoea - this occurs when the airway passage is restricted.
Sleep apnoea in babies
Central apnoea is almost exclusively a condition found in babies under 12 months old. While any baby can have sleep apnoea, premature babies are more likely to have the condition. Experts agree that it is usually caused by the immaturity of the central nervous system although it can signal other more serious health problems such as a respiratory disease, bleeding on the brain and problems with heart and blood vessels.
Periodic breathing in babies
It is common for babies under six months to have periodic breaks in their breathing as they sleep anything up to 20 seconds at a time is not uncommon. But when your baby stops breathing for more than 20 seconds and then gasps or gags as she commences breathing again, it is likely that she has sleep apnoea.
What are the dangers of sleep apnoea in babies?
Sleep apnoea should not be confused with SIDS - but it can be just as dangerous. When your baby suffers from sleep apnoea, with each break in her breathing, the oxygen levels in her blood can drop, which means conversely the carbon dioxide levels can rise to dangerous levels, which can become fatal.
Obstructive sleep apnoea
The more common form of sleep apnoea is Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA), which is estimated to affect one to two percent of children over 12 months. Childhood obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is characterised by repeated episodes of partial or complete upper airway obstruction during sleep which disrupts normal breathing and sleep patterns.
Signs and symptoms of obstructive sleep apnoea
Because OSA can disrupt good sleep patterns, and therefore cause behaviour problems during the day, sometimes the symptoms of OSA can be confused with conditions such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) but with close monitoring, the symptoms of Obstructive sleep apnoea become easy to identify. The most common symptoms are:
Night time symptoms:
- Snoring
- Breathing through the mouth
- Pauses in breathing
- Frequent urination at night or bedwetting
Daytime symptoms:
- Excessive sleepiness
- Learning problems
- Behavioural issues including problems paying attention, being aggressive and hyperactive
- Failure to thrive
Diagnosing OSA
The most common reason children develop OSA is because of enlarged tonsils or adenoids, your doctor suspects that your child may be experiencing breathing problems because of this, a sleep study might be suggested.
A sleep study, officially called polysomnography, involves wiring your child up to computers that measure chest movement, oxygen levels, REM, leg movement, brain and heart activity while she sleeps. The study is usually conducted overnight for older children, or during the day for babies. The measurements are non-invasive and parents are welcome to stay with their children the whole time.
Treatment options
If sleep studies show that your child has sleep apnoea, there are a couple of different treatment options available:
For children who have enlarged tonsils or adenoids, surgery is usually recommended to remove them. The surgery, called Adenotonsillectomy has a success rate of about 80 percent in curing OSA. In some circumstances, the tonsils and adenoids can grow back, which then increases the chances of OSA returning and therefore the need for more surgery.
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) mask
If your child's obstructive sleep apnoea is severe and surgery is not deemed to be a solution, using a CPAP mask at night may be recommended. This involves your child wearing a mask which is connected to a pump to continuously blow air into her nose. The continuous pressure from the air prevents the collapse of the upper airway, thus reducing the symptoms of OSA. However, this form of treatment doesn't cure OSA - it merely reduces the symptoms while the mask is worn.
Lifestyle changes
Certain lifestyle factors may increase OSA. These include:
- Obesity - if your child has a weight problem, your doctor may suggest that she goes on a weight-management program.
- Sleeping on her back because sleeping on her back may be causing her airway to collapse during sleep, you may find that your child symptoms improve if she sleeps on her side.
- Poor sleeping habits - Irregular bedtime and waking times can affect the overall quality of sleep and severity of OSA, so a good sleep routine should put in place.
Supplementary products and therapies
New products and therapies are under review to improve OSA, with two of the most promising being:
- An oral appliance like a dental plate. This is designed to move the lower jaw down and forward slightly to open up the airway. Many paediatric dentists are now offering this therapy for kids with OSA. However, like CPAP, the symptoms are only reduced while the plate is worn.
- Nasal steroid sprays may be effective in treating mild OSA in children, with a Cochrane review suggesting that these anti-inflammatory drugs may reduce the symptoms of the condition.

However a threat has risen from the arid eastern cliffs, and the dense forests of the south. Tribes of barbarians, warrior women, bandits, and other ungodly creatures have begun to move their camps nearer and nearer to the college. Fearing an attack, the seldom seen masters of the college have closed the gates, and begun to train their students in the study of fine combat.
In these troubling times, the finest mages, necromancers, druids, and wizards shall be needed and called upon to save this great institution.
The Amber School
Those specializing in the Amber School would learn to harness the great power held within the flame. As an amber wizard you are the master of the flame, able to scotch a foe into a fine ash, should you be experienced enough that is.
The Amethyst School
As a student of the Amethyst you have been taught the usefulness of the shadow and death. By calling upon those past, and the darkness around you, an amethyst wizard will use the relentless force of the night to beat his enemies into submission.
The Golden School
Taught in the holy company of a golden priest, you are the herald of the Lord of Light. With divine power you can call upon your deity to smite foes with pure will, or heal thine allies with the mercy of your almighty master.
The Crystal School
Those taught by the master of the Crystal school have become one with water, ice, snow, and storm. With either a passionate grace, or a devastating fury you can rupture your foe's will and spirit amidst a gale of ice and water.
The Jade School
The men and women of the Jade School practise their skills around the many forms of life that exist alongside us. Your skills are more focused on healing and growth, though, certain individuals have transformed their mastery to control pestilence, disease, and miasma.
The Ruby School
One of the more recent school of magic focuses on summoning, particularly the summoning of creatures from other worlds. Since it's inclusion there has been many conflicts between it and the Golden School. The Golden Masters declared the act blasphemous and evil, which truly, isn't far from the mark.

4 Error Found
Critical Error
<META> Description character length is under the recommended minimum of 25 characters
Change the <META> Description content to be between 25 and 150 characters
Search engine crawlers can analyze between 25 and 150 characters of the meta description tag. Thus, use the meta description efficiently to give a proper idea about your website.
Critical Error
META DESCRIPTION tag does not exist in the   of the source code
Add META DESCRIPTION tag into the header of the source code eg: <meta name="description" content="Descriptive, keyword rich snippet of page copy goes here"> The META DESCRIPTION is under your control for the "Call to Action" in the SERPs.
The META DESCRIPTION tag plays three roles: First, the META DESCRIPTION is used in the algorithm so it is evaluated in page rank for the words that were contained within it. Second, it elaborates on what the title text provides for a web page and includes keywords that reflect the contents of the page, which should read well for the human eye. Third but not last, the META DESCRIPTION is under the author's control to describe the content of a page for the search engine results pages (SERPs) with the intent of the text to elicit a response from the end user - a click through, referred to as "Call to Action!"
Detail: The META DESCRIPTION tag is a snippet of HTML code that belongs inside the   section of a Web page. It usually is placed after the Title tag and before the Meta keywords tag.
Important: META DESCRIPTION is helpful because it differentiates you from your competitors in the SERPs and improves the number of click-throughs to your site.
Little Error
Meta Keyword tag does not exist in the   of the source code
Add META KEYWORDS tag. eg: <meta name="keywords" content="keyword1, keyword2, keyword3">
Although this tag has lost value, some Search engine crawlers may use the META KEYWORDS tag to identify keywords relevant to a page's contents. Include keywords that you are targeting and related terms that represent the content of the page. DO NOT repeat a keyword more than 4 times within the set. You may also include misspellings for your target terms.
Critical Error
No content found witin the <meta name="description" content=" " > tag
Write copy for the <META> Description whereby the text is to be between 25 and 150 characters that is human readable, actionable and keyword rich
Search engines use META DESCRIPTIONs to determine page relevancy. When multiple pages utilize the same description, search engines have a more difficult time differentiating those pages, leading to poorer relevancy scores for those pages. All pages should have a unique META DESCRIPTION.
Recommendation: utilize goal keywords near the beginning of the description text.

The H1 tag reinforces the core keyword(s) found in the <TITLE> and META DESCRIPTION, which improves page relevancy and search engine ranking.

A Fresh New Look
I have been obsessing about the model Arizona Muse ever since seeing her in this epic editorial in Vogue's February 2011 issue. Photographed by Peter Lindbergh and styled by Tonne Goodman, this is one of those spreads that I regularly look to for inspiration. I fell in love with the minimalist fashion, the modern architecture and the desert landscape. But the element that really got me was Arizona's refreshingly chic haircut. I knew this wavy bob had to be mine and after months of discussing with my friend and hair stylist Beatrice Valenzuela, we finally made the chop.
Thank you, Bea for my fresh new look! xo

i just cut my own hair a similar length, but these photos of a.m. inspire me to go even shorter. hmmmmmmm....
one trick i've found for styling shorter hair is to make a couple loose, beachy curls on the side opposite your part, framing your face. really good for those moments when you're like, oh yeah i have no idea what to do with hair when i can't just knot up on top of my head anymore! - April 19, 2012 at 6:03 AM

More games beyond this weekend are, for all intents and purposes, a pipe dream for this edition of Skyhawks� soccer. A 2-3-2 home record and a midseason stretch where they went 3-3-2 saw to that. But FLC still has a shot to add some hardware to the collection with a win in the RMAC Tournament, and with a marked uptick in form last weekend, there�s at least a few positive vibes floating around the program.
�I think if you look at how we�ve actually been playing in terms of keeping possession of the ball, it�s something we�ve been proud of the last couple of years,� FLC head coach Oige Kennedy said in a phone interview Monday. �I think we finally got back to it.
�The disappointing part is it took nearly the whole season to get there.�
The improvement mostly was visible in a 5-0 victory over lowly Colorado Christian last Friday. Goals came from all over the pitch as FLC received rejuvenated performances from an inspired crop of seniors, including Derek Freeman, Andy Hoffman, Daniel Wilson and Kyle Woodson.
The Skyhawks continued a quality stretch of play into Sunday�s matchup with undefeated and top-ranked Regis. They went up 1-0 on the Rangers before succumbing 2-1 to the league champs.
�We showed Sunday when we play our style of soccer, we can play with the No. 1 team in the country,� Kennedy said.
FLC will need that style of soccer to pull off a title run as the No. 6 and final seed in the field.
Up first is Metro State, a 1-0 overtime winner over the Skyhawks on Sept. 28 in Denver, a game in which Brenden Hughes scored the winner.
�We probably had the lion�s share of possession in that game, and we probably should�ve won it with the chances we had,� Kennedy said.
A win would earn a matchup with archrival and No. 2 seed Colorado School of Mines in a semifinal in Golden, with a likely rematch with Regis looming in the finals should the Skyhawks get that far.

New England has long had a rich tradition of Celtic-inspired music. Pendragon has embraced that tradition and created a timeless sound of its own, performing roots music with an unmistakable comtemporary edge.
Pendragon seamlessly blends lively jigs and reels with Mary Lee Partington's original songs depicting the experiences of the immigrants who settled here and their role in the mill and textile traditions of New England. Pendragon performs their original songs and dance tunes on a combination of fiddle, flute, bouzouki, concertina, banjo, guitar, whistle and percussion.
Pendragon has been voted Rhode Island's Best Celtic Act in the Motif Magazine Best Music Poll seven straight years (2005-2011).

I am a political campaign junkie, so I may be more enthusiastic about this brilliant movie than the average person. Having worked in many political campaigns, and run for political office myself twice (won one, lost one), I think this movie really is an excellent portrayal of the internal workings of campaiagns which can be similar no matter what the country is. There are so many moving pieces in a campaign, and there needs to be fantastic teamwork that reacts quickly. This move caught that necessary action.Whatever your political leanings, left or right, this movie can give you an inspiring look at how good political campaigns can be a force for positive change.
This Spanish-language film offers a brilliant portrayal of the opposition's campaign during Pinochet's last days in office. His crimes against the people of Chile finally come out and the opposition uses it to build a winning ticket. This in a historically accurate account of the election and the outstanding campaign put together by an ad executive, played very well by Gael Garcia Bernal. There are many reasons to see this movie. First and foremost, it's a thrilling historical account that will have you guessing even though it's history and the outcome won't come as a surprise. It also happens to be a great character study of a man in exile who married, had a son, and got a divorce in the country he exchanged for his own. The relationship with his ex-wife is well crafted, as is the love he has for his son. In many ways, this movie also plays like Latin American Mad Men who doing battle for campaigns and pitching ads to executives and politicians.
This was a good movie, but does not deserve the over-the-top praise given by the professional movie critics. I was really looking forward to seeing it, and thought I would love it. During the movie, however, I didn't feel the suspense or excitement that the story should have engendered. I found myself thinking about how long it was. I didn't necessarily regret going, but I didn't love the experience.
The story moved along very well, and it was punctuated with lots of clips from historical sources. The main character is very likeable. As others have stated, if you like historical envents, you are going to enjoy how the filmmakers went about demonstrating how the dictatorship was brought down, and it did so without many of the exagerations that come from one side of the political spectrum or the other. Well balanced. I enjoyed it.
Recently, an erudite mentor posed a question to his twenty-year-old mentees (of mixed backgrounds), ?what makes America great?? Watching this fine film about the sacking of Chile?s dictator, Augusto Pinochet in 1988; an election he felt compelled to initiate; I was pivotally reminded of our free election process; negative campaigning by all parties is simultaneously shunned and accepted; no one fears the tattooing of one?s lawn or the harming of one?s family; we are free to praise or ban at will; one of the myriad of refreshing aspects of living and thriving in a democracy...FOUR STARS!!!!For Now ..Peneflix***For full review please visit peneflix (dot) com!!!
Fantastic! Gael GB is one of the actors of our time. His accent was a little off (he didn't sound like a real "chileno")But over all he is great and so was the whole cast.His boss was surreal, so great.

I've become a total convert to the cane coming out of South America these days. I started by trying Zonda clarinet reeds on the advice of Dr. Lawrence Gibbs and his mentor, Tom Riddenour. I still play Zonda on clarinet, but am now playing Gonzalez reeds on my saxophones. I like the fact that they come in quarter strengths.
Years ago I played Olivieri reeds on alto which are sadly no longer made. The Gonzalez performs more like them than any other reed I've tried.
Fernando Rowies said:
I´m using Vandoren V16 2.5 (the best for me nowdays). I will try a Hahn synthetic in the meantime.
Hi Fernando, nice to meet you here!
I use the following reeds:
Tenor Sax: ZZ Vandoren # 3
Alto Sax: Vandoren Java red No. 3
Soprano saxophone: Rico jazz select No. 3 m
Baritone Sax: Forestone M
I think this configiração is excellent for evenness of the sounds of all instruments. I found the balance that I sought.
I've been using LaVoz forever, so I guess they've been my favorites. Usually use Med/Soft on tenor, alto, & soprano (which I use clarinet reeds on), and when playing outdoors in hot &/or humid weather, I use a Rico Plasticover 2 on tenor, & maybe on the others to be on the safe side (wilted, flaccid reeds make little music)...
Would love to find the perfect synthetic reed when there is one....
