A wreck at the intersection of South Park Road and MacCorkle Avenue in Charleston, WV sent three people to an area hospital with injuries.
Firefighters from Station 6 in Kanawha City said they are not sure what caused the accident but that the area is prone to wrecks.
Two vehicles were involved. One flipped on its top as a result of the crash. All three patients had to be extricated from a red Chevy blazer. Firefighters said they were wearing their seat belts, and that their injuries did not appear to be life threatening.
The west bound lanes of MacCorkle Avenue were shut down while crews were clearing the scene. The lanes have since reopened.

Animal-Derived 'Medicines' Problematical
Got arthritis? Try tiger bones. Suffer from delirium? Get hold of some rhinoceros horn. Sexually stymied? Ingest a seahorse.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM, but various forms are practiced throughout Asia) has been around for thousands of years, and likely has helped millions of people feel better, but it cries out for updating in terms of compassion to all living things. Whereas at one time wild animals employed in the TCM pharmacopoeia were abundant and humans' pharmaceutical use of them limited, today creatures are savagely and systematically exploited for dubious — if not demonstrably false — medicinal purposes, as well as non-medical applications.
The Absurd Elk Hunt Proposal in Ontario
Illustrating the Hypocrisy of Wildlife Management
We had elk. They were once found throughout much of eastern North America. Scientists at the time considered the eastern elk to be a form distinct from other elk in other parts of the continent. But, as is true of so many eastern species that bore the brunt of European settlement that moved from east to west across the continent, they were wiped out. The eastern elk is extinct, not seen in Ontario since the last one was recorded in 1893.
Leonardo DiCaprio and Ralph Waldo Emerson
Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote that a "foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds." But there is nothing foolish about consistent ethics with respect to our treatment of animals. The beaver, cow, dog, eagle, fin whale — you get the idea — they all deserve to live free from cruelty, suffering, abuse and distress.
Nature Filmmaker Says Much Wildlife Footage Is Faked
Veteran filmmaker Chris Palmer has written a tell-all book asserting that many wondrous things we see on nature documentaries — animal births, scorpions mating, lemmings plunging to their deaths in Disney's "White Wilderness" from 1958, signature scenes in 2001's critically acclaimed film "Winged Migration" — are staged. According to an article by Daniel de Vise last week in the Washington Post, Palmer says it's common for wildlife TV shows and movies to include footage of captive animals who were used as stand-ins, predator vs. prey confrontations that were set-ups, and animal noises that were generated artificially, in sound studios.
Lions, Leopards and How Not To Save Them
Don't Count on Hunters or Zoos To Save Endangered Wild Cat Species
A couple of weeks ago I blogged about the fact that 80 percent of the world's wild cat species are at some level of risk of endangerment, including many species unknown to most people. But two species that are very well known, the African lion and the spotted leopard, are the subjects of a scientific paper just published in the journal Conservation Biology. The title of the paper is "Effects of Trophy Hunting on Lion and Leopard Populations in Tanzania."
Snopes' Frustration Is My Frustration
Truth Matters Not At All to a Very Large Minority
Have you heard of Snopes.com? It's a website dedicated to putting the lie to "urban myths" and misinformation, and sorting out, among the countless allegations making the electronic communications rounds, which are false, which are true, and which are a mountain of fabrication built on a molehill of fact. The site also provides information on where rumors originated. Many have a multitude of variations and have been around for ages.
Animals in Entertainment: A Deadly Bad Idea
File Casinos' Latest Lion Attack Under 'Asking for Trouble'
The Mirage has a garden and dolphin "habitat." Mandalay Bay has a shark reef. MGM Grand has a lion exhibit.
Las Vegas has a problem, clearly, with animal exploitation.
Animals Need Us To Change
A Longtime Born Free Blogger Signs Off
We who love animals often dedicate our lives to reshaping humanity's view of the animal kingdom. We fight a very difficult battle. Not only must we constantly challenge the status quo, but often we grow weary of humanity's inability to recognize animal cruelty, exploitation and suffering.

Here's how it works: A library card gets you a packet of seeds. You then grow the fruits and vegetables, harvest the new seeds from the biggest and best, and return those seeds so the library can lend them out to others.Basic Seed saving.

Dentures replace missing teeth and their adjacent tissues with a removable dental appliance made of acrylic resin and, in some cases, a combination of metals.
There are two primary types of dentures:
Complete. This type of denture replaces all of the teeth and their adjacent tissues.
Partial. Partial dentures act as dental bridges as they "bridge" the gap between a missing tooth or teeth.
The complete or partial dentures can be placed either after the teeth are removed and gums have healed (conventional) or immediately after the teeth are removed:
Conventional. Conventional dentures allow a recovery time (usually four to eight weeks) after all of the teeth are extracted before the dentures are placed in the mouth.
Immediate. This type of denture does not allow a healing period after all of the teeth are removed. The denture is immediately fit into the mouth after all teeth are removed. Additional adjustments in the fitting of this type of denture procedure may be necessary as healing occurs.
Occasionally, select roots are retained and the complete or partial denture is made to fit over these roots. The appliance is called an overdenture. Saving some key roots can help retain the bone in the jaw that supports the denture.
Daily remove and brush the denture carefully with a brush and toothpaste, both specifically designed for denture cleaning.
Avoid the use of harsh abrasive cleaners on your denture.
Avoid cleaning and/or sterilizing your denture in hot or boiling water. This can damage the denture.
If a partial denture is in place, remove it before brushing your natural teeth.
Once removed, keep the denture in a safe place, out of the reach of children and pets.
Once removed, soak the denture in a proper cleansing solution or water. Do not use bleach solutions. They will attack the metal and bleach the color out of the resin.
Do not wear your dentures at night while you are sleeping. This will irritate the tissues and promote growth of fungus.
Have your teeth cleaned every six months by an oral health professional.

Amarillo, TX - Burying a loved one always brings with it the pain of grief - a pain almost all of us have felt before - but when a parent buries a child, that pain is indescribable. And while one local family is dealing with that pain, the community is doing everything it can to help them through it.
Eleven year-old Colton Vaughn was killed Friday night (Sept. 6) after being hit by a truck near I-27and McCormick road. Friends of the family immediately jumped into high gear, organizing two fundraisers in three days. Donations came from friends, neighbors, and even complete strangers in an outpouring of support organizers call nothing short of incredible.
"We're still having tons of donations coming in," says organizer Christie Ramirez, "We're having anonymous donors covering expenses for funerals, we have funeral homes giving their time and their place to help out with everything - and so, it's been absolutely amazing to be a part of this."
Baseball was a central part of Colton's life, so both fundraisers were held at the Rick Klein Baseball Complex, where Colton spent many of his days among friends and teammates.
"I tell you - especially here in baseball - you get to know a lot of people, and you get to be part of a family out here in the baseball community," says Ramirez, "and so them coming together really speaks a lot to Amarillo, and how we come together as a community."
RAmirez says she's organized similar events before as an employee at Amarillo National Bank, But none of them carried the emotional weight of this one.
"I've never ever experienced anything like this before; just the emotional heartache, and the attachment that everyone has to Jack or Susie or Amanda or Colton - it's been incredible," says Ramirez.
If you'd like to help, donations can be made to the "Jack Geffken for the benefit of Colton Vaughn" account at any Amarillo National Bank branch.

To the Editor: Tardive dystonia is usually considered a variant of tardive dyskinesia. However, the type of onset and the response to treatment clearly differentiate the two conditions with the notion that dystonias begin earlier and are more difficult to treat (1–3).
Mr. A was a 43-year-old man with a diagnosis of schizophrenia and polysubstance dependence who was in outpatient treatment. He spent 5 years in prison and was then in a state hospital for 1 year after an episode in which he stabbed his mother. He began taking neuroleptic medications at age 25, mainly chlorpromazine up to 1000 mg/day, for about 14 years. According to his records, Mr. A first noticed the presence of involuntary movements at age 35. These movements consisted of excessive blinking, which caused difficulty seeing, facial grimacing, jerky movements of the jaw resembling a yawn, and neck twisting accompanied by a gasping or barking sound that occasionally caused some respiratory distress.
Mr. A was evaluated by neurologists, who made a diagnosis of tardive dyskinesia and added that he might have late-onset Tourette's syndrome. Results of a magnetic resonance imaging of the brain were normal. Risperidone treatment was started, which he said seemed to help his movements; however, he remained markedly affected by his involuntary movements at the end of 2 years of risperidone therapy at 6 mg/day. When seen by one of us (M.E.J.), a diagnosis of tardive dystonia was made. His risperidone therapy was tapered, and he was started on olanzapine therapy, which was increased to 15 mg at bedtime. After being at this dose for 6 weeks, Mr. A experienced a marked decrease in his involuntary grunting, and his blepharospasms almost completely disappeared. After taking olanzapine for 7 months, his tardive dystonia improved further. He did not have any involuntary grunting or neck twisting, but he still had mild involuntary jaw movements.
While it is impossible to be definitive about the beneficial effects of olanzapine on this patient's movement disorder, the length of time it was present and the course of its improvement certainly suggest that olanzapine played a role in his improvement. Similar claims have been made for clozapine.

Will Groupon lower prices on upcoming IPOs?
Questions about the company's numbers are sending the stock lower. This could hurt other social-networking names, including Facebook.
By Jonnelle Marte for SmartMoney.com.
Groupon's accounting woes are doing for its stock what the company normally does for the prie of massage visits. And investing pros say the daily deal site's lowered revenues may also discount enthusiasm for the latest wave of Internet IPOs.
Sources tell The Wall Street Journal that the Securities and Exchange Commission is examining Groupon's (GRPN) revision of its financial results for its first quarter as a public company after the SEC discovered that executives did not properly account for customer refunds. Since then, Groupon's stock has fallen steadily, to around $14. The changes will reduce the company's revenue by $14.3 million for the fourth quarter and widen its loss by $22.6 million.
Some experts say the news shows how difficult it is to monetize the value of a new tech company. "Too often investors get caught up in the frenzy of a well-known company going public," says Tim Keating, the chief executive officer of Keating Capital, which specializes in pre-IPO investments. "Just because a company is familiar, doesn't make them a great investment."
Recently public Internet companies like Groupon can be especially difficult to value because they are often still trying to figure out how to create steady revenue streams from their services, says Devin Pope, a wealth adviser for Albion Financial Group. "They're not necessarily selling a product that is easy to evaluate," Pope says.
Investors may not want to jump in immedately after an IPO because such companies may see their revenues and business models change as they mature, he says. Groupon, for example, at first excluded marketing costs from its accounting, which enabled the company to show a profit even though it was generating losses under standard accounting rules. The company also initially counted as revenue everything it took in from daily deals, but later subtracted the amount it shares with merchants.
To be sure, Groupon hasn't been accused of any wrongdoing. And such early accounting blunders may get less attention in the future if Congress passes new rules under the JOBS Act that would allow companies to work out accounting disagreements with regulators before they go public. And many Internet companies can go on to reward investors and demonstrate value as they mature, says Keating. He points to Facebook, which he says has demonstrated that it can generate steady revenue through advertisements and applications.
Groupon did not respond to requests for comment.
Still, some advisers recommend that potential investors wait until a company has reported earnings for several quarters and shown that it can generate steady profits before they buy into a newly public Internet company. Jeffrey Bogue, an adviser in North Berwick, Maine, also recommends keeping such investments to less than 5% of your overall portfolio. And of course, investors should be patient, pros say. "Overall, people will look at Groupon as a lesson learned," says Paul Brigandi, a senior portfolio manager of the $5 million Direxion Long/Short Global IPO (DXIIX) fund, which invests in newly public companies. "There's great upside, but a lot of that is not substantiated yet."

As our kids settle in for the second half of the school year, spare a thought for this number: 160,000. That's the estimated number of American students who will stay at home every day this semester due to fear of being bullied.
Americans spent much of December transfixed by images of elementary school gun violence. However, the fact is that the average student is infinitely more likely to be bullied than shot by a lunatic. Bullying — which can, of course, include gun violence, especially in rough neighborhoods — is the routine risk that can shake loose the foundations of children's security.

Lessons generally take place on weekdays during the late afternoon and early evening, depending on the individual teacher's schedule. Lessons may take place at other times if agreed upon by teacher and student.
All scheduling decisions are made between student and teacher. Teachers are responsible for contacting students to set up lessons once registration forms with payment have been received and processed by the Program office. Please allow 4-5 days for mail to be received.
The Program office does not make scheduling arrangements.
Our sessions correspond to the URI academic calendar, not the public school calendar, so it is important to check with your teacher regarding lessons during public school vacation weeks and holidays.
Officially, lessons are not held during URI vacation weeks, but some teachers prefer to schedule make-up lessons during these weeks. Please check with your teacher to be sure.

If they were going to be retheming MSHI any time soon, I figure they would be trying to shoe horn it into there instead of rushing to build it within 13 months.
What is it with these delays in announcements? When is Universal going to detail its Wizarding World in Hollywood?....and now this very intriguing development out East.
It makes no sense for Disney to have spiderman from universal as they make tons of money from the license (sony - film and Universal - character) they also sell the merchandise.
The character they would want the most if any is the Hulk to fit in with Avengers film
Now the biggest thing USO has over Disney is the Contract and that exclusive use clause.
What Disney should do is get that clause scrubbed and BOTH parks have the characters / Rides / Theming
Both parks could have there own Marvel agenda.
I can see disney doing Marvel weekends like the Star-wars weekends.
According to Stich Kingdom everything but TOT in DHS has had construction permits granted could that simply be next gen input or something else.
The move of the Imagineer is clearly for a new land/area and I think it could be Marvel
Disney is a lot about the Experience and Universal is about rides and thrills Disney needs to start building big thrill rides (ok thunder mountain/space mountain etc but there "old" classic but "old") we are seeing this with the new Snow white ride in Fantasyland Avengers/Marvel land steps away from Disney of old and moves it into the future they could build a winged coster based on the Chitauri and the buildings around be wrecked or it could be Iron Man.
what ever happens i hope it all does soon I'm looking to visit in late 2014 by that time WWOHP 2 and Fantasyland makeover should be complete we'll stay in the new USO hotel and at the Art of Animation but i'll not be happy if something is due 2015 etc (not bother at all for Aviator)
There will always be a market for superheroes though, so it's a good move to give them life in the park where bad actors and screenwriters can't screw them up. Disney will have to outdo what Universal has had for the past 10 years though, otherwise it's a throwaway.

I have been making these cookies for years. They are so light and yummy. They are a great choice for using up frozen bananas in my freezer rather than making banana loaf. I add just a liitle bit of cinnamon and nutmeg to my batch of cookies.

This recipe is even better when you make it with brown butter!
All you have to do is boil the butter in a sauce pan on medium heat till it turns brown(5-10 min, occasionally stirring), like caramelizing sugar.
It adds a great toffee-like flavour!

Certainly not the best Cirque show I have seen, I found myself distracted from the performances at times by what I felt was fairly glaring cultural appropriation in places (specifically the roller skate act). Unfortunate to find something problematic like this as Cirque du Soleil is a show I see religiously when it comes touring here. Still, the performances were all breathtaking and incredible, but perhaps they could be done in a better way.

Went and saw the show a few days ago, this was my first cirque show, and I was amazed at how great it was. Got some of the cheaper seats, but as I was able to pick my seats I was happy with the choice. I was able to see enough, and I loved it. The performers are just amazing and it is done so well. I do have to question the need for an intermission, but other than that was very very impressed and would probably see another show even though it means travelling 4 hours from where I live.

I went to last night's performance with a friend, we paid 135 each for our tickets and spent the evening looking at the performers backs and missed a lot of the show due to our position. I'm aware they were not the most expensive tickets available but they were still pricey and if I knew I would be viewing butts for the evening I wouldn't have purchased the tickets. The performers were incredible but didn't even acknowledge the audience that wasn't directly in front of them. Disappointing :-(

I went to TOTEM tonight and it was amazing. The talent is out of this world! The only thing that annoyed me is the comedy because I got a box of popcorn tipped on my head TWICE during the show. I know that it's just part of the whole being funny thing but I found it kind of humiliating lol. Ohwell, I would still definately go again but please stay away from the young girl in the front row, comedians!!!!

Saw the show on its last night in Vancouver. Was baffled by the poor reviews below; while the theme is not as cohesive as other Cirque shows, the individual performances were stunning and performers gave 110% to entertain us. We were close enough to see the effort put in! Music is dynamic, upbeat and fun. Will not spoil the individual performances, but there is some dazzling acrobatics and some very high-skill bodyweight acts that left the crowd gasping. Recommended, especially for first timers!

The After Hours Program is an urgent-care telephone triage service staffed by specially trained registered nurses and intake representatives at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. The nurses can provide assistance to you and your child if help is required when the office staff is not available. Nurses will assist you in determining correct care for your child, whether he or she has a fever, cough or another health problem.
The After Hours Program is reached by calling your primary care physician or nurse practitioner. If the office staff is not available, you will be prompted to select an option to have your call transferred to an After Hours intake representative at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.
The After Hours staff is available evenings, nights, weekends and holidays when you doctor's office is closed. However, service hours vary by office. Please check with your primary care site to find out the exact hours the service is available to you.
The intake representative will answer the call and take your child's name, address and date of birth and enter this information into our computer system. It will then be available in the future if you call again. The representative will ask for a brief summary of the problem and then assign your call to a nurse, who will call you back in approximately five to 30 minutes.
Our priority is to assist the families of the sickest children as soon as possible. Therefore, families whose children have the most serious symptoms receive return calls first.
The nurse will then discuss your child's symptoms and medical history with you. This will help determine if your child needs to be seen immediately, within a short period of time, the next day in the office or if he or she can be cared for at home. If appropriate, advice will be given on how to care for your child at home.
You should call if your child is sick and you need information on how to provide care at home or help in determining if your child needs to be seen. If at any point you feel you have a medical emergency, call 911 immediately.
Your doctor or a primary care provider for your practice is always available to the After Hours nurses or you to answer additional questions. As necessary, the primary care provider will place calls directly to your home to further assist you.
As soon as the call is complete, After Hours will fax a copy of the documentation to your primary care provider, as well as to the emergency department if your child is referred to one. The documentation will be in your doctor's office when he or she comes in the following day.
The nurses may be able to call in some prescription medications based on the preference of your primary care provider. Patients need to be seen and evaluated before antibiotics can be ordered for an illness. In most cases, the nurse can call in renewals for medication your child receives on a regular basis if you don't have enough medication left for doses required before the office opens. Routine or nonurgent prescriptions and over-the-counter medication orders are handled by your office during business hours.
Routine appointments can only be scheduled through your primary care office during regular business hours. If the After Hours nurse determines your child needs to be seen due to illness, he or she may be able to schedule a sick appointment for you. Check with your primary care office to see if this service if available at your site.

By Jilian Mincer
(Reuters) - Some of the leading U.S. producers of electronic cigarettes are moving their manufacturing to the United States from China in response to growing concern about quality and the prospect of tighter federal regulations.
In recent weeks, some of the best-selling U.S. e-cigarette companies, including closely held Mistic and White Cloud, announced that they would move production to new, highly automated U.S. factories that would enable them to track ingredients and quality more closely. As a fringe benefit, they even expect costs to be lower than in China, the country that invented the battery-powered cartridges that produce a nicotine-laced inhalable vapor.
"People are concerned about quality," said Bonnie Herzog, a senior analyst at Wells Fargo Securities, who expects more manufacturing to shift to the United States.
"There is varying quality among all these different brands," she said. "I think regulation will standardize these products because they will be forced to improve."
The shift has gained momentum since April, when the U.S. Food and Drug Administration proposed rules that would require, among other things, manufacturers that want access to the U.S. market to register with the agency and list the ingredients in their products.
"As a general rule, the FDA regulation will require more control over the manufacturing process," said Bryan Haynes, an attorney at Troutman Sanders, a law firm in Richmond, Virginia, that represents e-cigarette companies. He said more companies plan to move production to the United States because it "could make compliance easier".
Many of these companies already produce the nicotine-laced liquid used in e-cigarettes in the United States and then ship it to China, where the battery-powered devices are assembled. Most batteries will continue to be made in China.
E-cigarettes are considered a crucial business for the three major U.S. tobacco companies, which have bought or developed their own brands in recent years to offset shrinking sales of conventional tobacco cigarettes. Compliance with new U.S. regulations has become a top priority.
U.S. sales of e-cigarettes are expected to outpace sales of tobacco cigarettes by 2020, in part because of the perception they are safer to smoke.
Their advocates say e-cigarettes are a safer alternative to smoking traditional cigarettes since they do not produce lung-destroying tar. But there is little data about the long-term health effects of the products.
Reynolds American Inc
Lorillard Inc's
Altria Group Inc
To be sure, most e-cigarettes are still made in China. Many companies are pleased with production in China and have no plans to move their operations. NJOY, for example, produces the liquid for its NJOY brand in the United States and assembles the devices in China.
"We adhere to our own 'gold standard,' which covers quality control practices and tests of every NJOY product," Craig Weiss, the company's chief executive, said in an email.
In May, Tarpon Springs, Florida-based White Cloud said it would move manufacturing to an automated plant in the United States that would make production much faster and more precise.
"We can delivery a much more uniform product because we're not reliant on someone's eye," said Rob Burton, director of corporate and regulatory affairs at White Cloud Electronic Cigarettes. The company, like many other manufacturers, has been hand-filling the liquid into the devices in its Chinese facility.
Burton said White Cloud would like U.S. regulators eventually to approve the product as a medical device for smoking cessation. The new design, he said, should provide "consistent vapor delivery".
John Wiesehan, Mistic's chief executive, said his company was moving production even though it was satisfied with the quality of the products made in China. He conceded, however, that there was a perception of inferior quality with Chinese-made products. "I wanted to remove that stigma," he said.
Mistic officials expect to cut costs by moving production to the United States because the company won't have to ship the fluid and could reduce the number of workers it employs.
"You're in the beginning stages of this industry," Wiesehan said. "And we're developing standards as we speak."

Code Name Verity is a compelling, emotionally rich story with universal themes of friendship and loyalty, heroism and bravery. Two young women from totally different backgrounds are thrown together during World War II: one a working-class girl from Manchester, the other a Scottish aristocrat, one a pilot, the other a wireless operator. Yet whenever their paths cross, they complement each other perfectly and before long become devoted friends. But then a vital mission goes wrong, and one of the friends has to bail out of a faulty plane over France. She is captured by the Gestapo and becomes a prisoner of war. The story begins in Verity's own words, as she writes her account for her captors.

I believe a reviewer should finish a book before submitting a review. What do you think?
"Haunting, Beautiful, Exquisite, Special Book"
Other reviewers have outlined the plot, the story and what the reader/listener can expect to happen in this book. So I'll take a moment to say that I found this book to be one of those special novels that gets under your skin and stays with you. The two main characters, these best friends have such a special bond in a time in our history in a part of the world where atrocities were taking place daily. In spite of (or perhaps because of ?) these women were especially kind and brave and full of honor and grace. Imagine if we all could aspire to be such caring special human beings in the face of such horror. Bravo Ms. Wein. And equally special, the narrators brought these amazing characters to life just perfectly. This is a wonderful special book. A must listen.
"Elusive truth"
The complexity of the spy puzzle was the most appealing aspect of the story's plot for me. It required some careful listening, since clues are casually dropped throughout the book.
In most ways, this story is unique, revealing pieces of history that were unknown to me. But if pressed, I might compare it to Aidan Chambers's Postcards from No Man's Land. This also takes place during World War II, with two stories that run parallel and gradually come together, at least thematically. Another complex, multi-narrator tale set in World War II era England is Connie Willis's Blackout, and its conclusion, All Clear.
Morven Christie is absolutely stellar in her part of the narration. She moves easily through the accents and languages of Scotland, England, France, and Germany. There is all the panache and bravado that one would expect of her character.
Verity, the ultimate changeling, is such a powerful character that she is present in every scene, even by her absence. One of the main appeals of her story is ferreting out the truth in what she describes. Maddie's narration is but a satellite of Verity's gripping tale.
"Heroines who learn from mistakes - refreshing!"
This novel is a pleasure to listen to. It is the story of two women of very different backgrounds who become friends in the first four years of WWII (39-43). Wein does as excellent job of evoking the era and providing little details. Did you know that the ball point pen first came into use during WWI ... or why?
Of course, there are wonderful plot twists. And not everything ends happily.
I like my fictional heroines self-possessed. Not those heroines popular in so many series who make the same mistakes over and over, and over yet again. These two women actually learn from their experiences.
The use of two narrators, one for each woman, is a blessing. Each captures in voice the background and upbringing of her assigned character.
I was very disappointed not to find other books by this author available on Audible, nor (with a meaningless exception) other narration work by Ms. Christie.
Well worth your time.
"Extraordinary story of courage and friendship"
It is one of my very favorite, both narrators are fantastic and the storytelling is great. The way the story unravels and the two parts fit together is makes it very interesting. I stayed up late and woke up early to finish it.
The Guernsey Literary & Potato Peel Pie Society, because it is a story of WW2 told differently, more of a character study, and despite the tragic conditions there is humor and warmth.
I love the stories of Maddie & Julia's developing friendship, when they ride bikes into the countryside, and their adventures at the airbase before their mission.
The name is perfect!
While this is classified as a YA novel, as an adult I loved it. I highly recommend it!
Say something about yourself!
"A Tale of War"
This book was a step out of my comfort zone, not something I would have picked up on my own. I was prompted to listen to Code Name Verity by an online book club, and I am glad I did.
Pay attention during this book, there are so many small details you will miss that come back later if you don't listen. I think if I were to listen to it again I would find so many things I missed the first time around.
My husband did not expect to like this book, nor did I to be honest, but we were both wrong. The book was only rated by 16 people when I picked it up, so while the reviews were very good I still had my reservations. It held both our attentions and the little details that were part of the parallel story were like hidden Easter eggs in the book to be found.
As a side note: You may need tissues.
"An Amazing Story Voiced by Amazing Actors"
The narrators of this story are pure magic. They brought the characters to life with humor and emotional that brought me into the story and wouldn't let me go. But the plot was not what I was expecting. It changed and developed and shocked me. I love that.
I like that you don't - and can't - really understand everything you're reading/hearing until the second half. It requires careful listening because there are a lot of important details. A few times I missed things that came up later and that frustrated me. But there is so much detail and color and pain and life in here.
I love love loved when the story turned and I realized I had no idea what was going on and now I do and it's amazing!
Oh choosing between them is like saying "What do you like best about chocolate ice-cream? That it's chocolate or that it's ice cream?" Um, what? They go together. Without one you can't understand the other. Literally Verity's account would be confusing and misunderstood without Maddie's, and Maddie wouldn't even matter if Verity's story didn't explain their incredible friendship. They are a team to be taken as a whole. Christie and Gaskell are PERFECT narrators. Their characters are written very differently and they own their parts completely.
I both laughed and cried. I gasped. I sighed. I ached. When a writer can make you feel those things, they own you. And Wein completely owns me forever.
Take your time with this. And don't multitask. I did, and I missed so many things. The twists lack punch it you're not paying attention. I learned my lesson about a third of the way through but I wish I had give this the proper focus it deserves. It's beautifully written and wonderfully performed.
"Incredible listening experience"
I don't really know where to start; I can't say enough good things about this book. It's classified as young adult, but it is far more complex than much of YA literature, and holds its own as adult lit. The story itself is riveting, and the performances could not be better. The two protagonists are voiced perfectly. If the story itself weren't so compelling (which it is), you could just get lost in the characterizations. It's that beautiful. Neither narrator hits a wrong note. The writing is lovely, the story is intense and heartbreaking, and the two women are so *present* and believable. Just go listen to it!
I am an avid eclectic reader.
"wonderfull story"
When I saw this book on audible and read the reviews I had a picture in my mind of a woman piolet and a women wireless operator working together such as the piolet passing information to the operator while flying over dangerous area. Boy, was I wrong. Elizabeth Wein tells the story in a unique way and the use of two narrators was great. Morven Christie and Lucy Gaskell really made the story work. The story grabbed me right away and kept my attention throughout. I was absorbed right into the story and felt I was there with them and part of the story. It takes a great author to do that to a reader. I found the comments by the author at the end of the book very interesting. She took real situation and placed her story heroines (which she made them a composite of real people) into a similar made up story making this a novel. Lady Julia was a polished, educated Scot aristocrats and I felt Mattie, the English girl piolet was someone just like me. I am sure other readers may feel this reversed. This is one of the best spy stories I have read it some time. There is humor, suspense, action, wrapped in a fascinating story.

"Code Name Verity is an absolute must-read."
I wish I had something really original to add to the reviews of Code Name Verity that would compel people to read this really original and enthralling book immediately, but the best I can do is wholeheartedly concur with the majority.
Yes, this book does have a bit of a slow start, but stick with it and you will be amply rewarded with a terrific reading experience. Like others, I also can't recount anything beyond bare bone details of the plot without giving away spoilers, which in this case really would spoil your terrific reading experience. Two girls join the war effort in World War II Britain, and during a mission, their plane crashes over Nazi-occupied France. One of the girls (let's call her The Spy) is captured, and through her written confession of everything she knows about the British War Effort, she tells the story of her friendship with Maddie, The Pilot. That is simple enough, but Code Name Verity is so much more. Wein's plotting ability is unsurpassed, but she combines this with amazingly beautiful writing. There is a scene where one of the narrators is describing the green flash (read the book and you'll understand!) that painted a particularly resplendent picture for me. Wein also manages to create vivid characters that I really cared about. Her extraordinary ability to write characters extends to knowing how to write the Nazi antagonists so they are not overdrawn caricatures. Since this is historical fiction, I was convinced that The Pilot and The Spy were based on real people. Wein does an author's debriefing at the end of the book that further explains and adds to the story.
There are several small, possibly implausible plot points which may require the reader to suspend belief a bit, but the rest of the book is so good that any suspension of belief you have to do is easy and worthwhile. This is a place where I really wish I could award half stars on Audible, as Code Name Verity is a solid 4.5 stars.
I have never before finished a book and immediately started a reread, but I've been compelled to with this book. My first read was as an audiobook, but I've just purchased the Kindle version and will be reading Code Name Verity a second time this afternoon. I know I'll be rewarded both intellectually and emotionally, and I hope other readers will reward themselves by reading this excellent book.
"Do Not Read Any (other) Reviews of this Book!"
Believe me when I say, you do not want to read about this book before you actually listen to it. There is absolutely no way to write a review without giving away spoilers..no way at all! All I will say is that it is a poignant story of friendship and survival by turns funny, sad and scary. It is wonderfully written and narrated and it will stay with you long after you have finished listening. In fact, I can almost guarantee it is a book you will listen to a second time.
"Simply Brilliant!"
Absorbing, "page-turner", Intrigue.
Oh yes! I just could not stop listening!
Initially I couldnt see where it was going. I was tasked to read/listen to it, so I was determined to keep going with it. Then the intrigue got me and I just could not stop listening! I loved it. I certainly did not see the twist coming and when they started, they continued until the end of the book. Fantastic book! I will definitely be seeking more from this author and more from the readers. The performances were superb! 10/10!
"I adored it!"
Oh yes, I have done and will. I will also recommend they try and get the audio version, as I think the narrators performance elevated the book to a higher level, and I did wonder if I would think it was as exceptional if I had just read it the traditional way. Why would I recommend it? Well because it's better than most books. It doesn't fall into the good while you are reading it, but forgettable category or an entertaining enough diversion, it is simply a great book. And great books are few and far between.
The two girls; their differences, their bravery and their love for each other. They were splendid.
I suppose I liked Julie best, but didn't get to know her very well under the circumstances. Maddie was lovely though, and heartbreaking and warm and brave.
oh God, yes. Both. And terribly sad...
I envy people who haven't read this as they get the chance to experience it for the first time.
"Great narration of a great story"
A Carnegie medal short listed book. This was a story that kept me intrigued from start to finish with characters that I immediately warmed to. The two narrators added to the story.
Thank heavens this wasn't longer as I listened to it in one go and stayed up very late!
A beautifully written story of friendship at a time of adversity.
The actual story is gripping, confusing and inspiring.
One of those books which is a novel, but has been based on events if not individuals. Maddie and Queenie are enchanting characters who you only wish you could have met.
I remember many years ago speaking to a lady who had been in the S.O.E. in France, who still would not talk about what she had done, because of The Official Secrets Act and Queenie reminded me so much of her. Quiet people who did an incredibly dangerous job, and whose main concern was that they put others at risk.
This version is beautifully told with two voices to mark the divide.
Well worth a listen.
"Best audiobook I've ever bought"
Absorbing, challenging, different
Blackout & All Clear - the same excellent storytelling and strong female characters.
That would give the plot away, but I can say, when the pieces of the puzzle fell into place.
Both - but mostly cry as it's quite a harrowing story
The narrator was fantastic - really captured the different characters extremely well. It's very unusual to have a story with so many female characters that doesn't lose it's way having them focus of men - none of that here. The writer captures their characters in a rounded way and concentrates on the events that move the plot forward. Amazing book - one of those you think about when it's finished.
"gripping tale"
Not for a while as the plot twists are so good that remembering them would spoil the story
The ambush at the bridge and it's outcome.
It made me laugh and cry it is a very cleverly told tale and heart-rending.
I loved this book and will be recommending it to my GCSE English student tutee.
"Such an amazing story; heart warming and wrenching"
This is one of the most gripping audiobooks I've listened to so far. I'd look forward to my walk to and from work, just to find out what happens.
If I had the time I could easily have spent hours just listening to this book.
It is just a great but plausible story that encapsulates an era of great risk, terror, heart break and courage but also of friendship, love and trust. There are lots of twists in this story and I loved the detail that went into it. I also enjoyed how it was written in two accounts and how all the threads come together in the end. A beautiful story of friendship and a harrowing account of war.
"Feels like a news report."
When I listened to this, the freshness and immediacy of it made it seem like an urgent news report. The switching between voices had me concentrating hard and brought reality to the book. It was hard to place it in time as it seemed to be happening now, not in the past. The best bit was the feeling of an ambiguous ending, too hard to guess how it might end, so I hated being interrupted and loved listening on my own. The narrators gave it a clean, modern feel and character, despite it nearly being a period piece. Well worth a second listen.
I have no problem recommending this book. I bought it to listen to on my drive to Paris.
The story was gripping, I didn't want to stop on my journey! The reading was superb by both readers.
I can't say that I can compare it to any other book I have read in this genre, most can be pretty boring set in the period, but right from the beginning it had me hooked.
They were both superb, I wasn't sure if I detected an American accent to start with, but
I soon forgot that! No Favouite
Of course, but that would give it away!
Make sure this is your next purchase!
"Awesome story"
Yes - the story is beautifully written and narrated. It tugs at the heart strings and, despite the authors note at the end , is totally believable.
The moment when you realise the purpose of the 'story' by Verity. Without giving it away!
Both performances were brilliant.
Yes if I could have listened to it in one go I would have.
Definitely worth a listen.

British singer Emeli Sande is one of the many artists featured on the soundtrack for Baz Luhrmann 's The Great Gatsby. She covers Beyonce 's 2003 hit "Crazy in Love," something she told ABC News Radio at the New York City premiere last week was difficult to do.
"You know, it was a very daunting thing to take on Beyonce," Emeli admitted. "But I tried to, you know. Nobody can do it like Beyonce, so I was just trying to bring my own interpretation, and doing it with Bryan Ferry 's jazz orchestra really made that possible."
Beyonce's hit for The Great Gatsby soundtrack was infused with live instrumentation and a cool jazz vibe, which paired nicely with the film, which is set in 1920s New York. The soundtrack's executive producer, Jay-Z , gave the 26-year-old the freedom to take on his wife's song however she liked.
"When I got into the studio they're just like, 'Do your own thing. Do what you would do,'" Emeli told ABC News Radio. "And I tried to do that."
Still, the singer did admit that one thing did influence her rendition of "Crazy in Love" -- the film itself.
"I was watching the scene the music was going to be played in," she said, "so that was definitely inspiring the delivery."
The Great Gatsby soundtrack comes out May 7; the deluxe edition will be available at Target exclusively. The movie itself, an adaptation of the classic F. Scott Fitzgerald novel, hits theaters May 10 with a cast that includes Leonardo DiCaprio , Tobey Maguire and Carey Mulligan .

Current Highlights
In 2011, Vanderbilt's leadership took action to fulfill its vision of creating a technology commercialization function better positioned to leverage the innovative talent of its faculty, staff and students. The Center for Technology Transfer and Commercialization (CTTC) was repositioned within the institution and redesigned to deliver on this vision. Essential to the redesign was the entrustment of the center to Dr. Gordon Bernard, who oversees the management of many aspects of research and development in the Vanderbilt Medical School, including the Office of Contracts Management, the Vanderbilt Institute for Clinical and Translational Research, and the Institutional Review Board, among others, as well as the recruitment of Alan Bentley to lead CTTC's efforts.
Click the graphic above to download the full 2013 Highlights pdf.
CTTC staff embraced the opportunity to expand its capabilities and services to match the rapidly increasing interest by faculty, staff and students to move Vanderbilt innovations from the lab bench to the marketplace to benefit society. As part of this effort, the Center altered its mix of professional expertise and scientific and transactional knowledge. Dr. Kenneth Holroyd, assistant vice chancellor for research and associate prrofessor of anesthesiology and medicine, accepted the leadership role of CTTC Medical Director, through which he provides strategy and guidance to the operation. A detailed, transparent process for consistently and professionally managing commercialization efforts was implemented, and a Faculty Advisory Committee -- comprised of faculty representing the schools of Arts and Sciences, Engineering, Peabody, and the School of Medicine -- was convened to give this critical stakeholder group a voice in the direction of the Center. These are all critical elements of an evolving business model for CTTC that focuses on producing results, improving inventor service, creating value and impacting society.

It's the time of year when high school students are graduating and getting ready to begin their college years. Twelve Gwinnett County seniors honored with the prestigious Gates Millennium Scholarship will go to college for free, thanks to Bill and Melinda Gates. Only 1,000 students across the country get the scholarship each year. This year, five of them were from Mountain View High School in Lawrenceville. The scholarship is awarded to low-income minority students who make the best grades in their advanced courses. Yonas Takele will be the first in his family to attend college. He's planning to study cognitive sciences at Yale University in the fall. For Victor Mata, the path to get here has been especially hard. He just lost his mother last semester, and says that it's the struggle and winning the scholarship at the same time that have made him a better person.The Gates Millennium Scholarship covers a full ride to any college in the country, all the way through a doctoral degree if the students choose to go that route. Each student has their own unique plans, but all five winners have the same drive to succeed.All of the scholars say support from their parents has been crucial, along with constant encouragement from their counselors at school. Mountain View's five Gates scholarship winners will graduate this Friday night.

3.8 million people suffer sports and recreational-related concussions every year, sometimes people don't even know they've suffered brain damage.
There is a new state-of-the-art machine in the valley only one of two in the country that is helping doctors pinpoint potential brain injuries.
The Banner Concussion Center has one of two of these machines used to treat concussions. They have only had it for a month but those who use it say it is changing the way they treat these brain injuries.
14-year-old Courtney not used to being on the sidelines of the volleyball court but that's where doctors want her at least for now.
"I've had three concussions" said Courtney. Those concussions leaving her in pain. "I get really bad headaches and if I get up too fast I get dizzy" said Courtney.
For the past few months she has been coming to Banner's Concussion Center for rehab.she is one of a handful of patients using this brand new state of the art machine. In fact, this is only one of two currently in operation in the United States. The machine helps therapists pinpoint problem areas and then treat them.
"For me it's the most important piece of equipment I could ever use" said Shelly Massingale who is a physical therapist at Banner Concussion Center that specializes in balance. "It can look at how well you use your feet for balance how well you use sight and how well you use your inner ear" she said.
The machine gives the patients false visual cues then Measures how well your brain reacts to keep you balanced. Therapists are able to keep track of progress every session, for Courtney she is getting better every time and hopes to be back on the court soon.
"I've progressed so much and every time I do it, it gets easier" said Courtney.
