Leading up to the November 5th publication of PW's Best Books of 2012, our reviews editors are blogging about some of their favorites from our top 100. Here's the latest post:
Over the course of Tana French's four Dublin Murder Squad novels, a lot has happened. For one, French has become a very good writer. Her last two in the series, Faithful Place and Broken Harbor, are great books; moody, enthralling, truly mysterious, and well-written, with only rare moments of laziness when French leans on too-familiar metaphors. A lot has happened to Ireland too since French wrote her first novel, In the Woods. Published in 2007 in the U.S., that novel mixed a mysterious murder and a decades-old disappearance with economics and politics in the guise of a planned motorway project. Dublin was booming then, the Celtic Tiger at full roar. By Faithful Place, French's third novel, Dubliners were starting to worry, a bit, about the increasingly unstable real estate market.
In the Ireland of Broken Harbor, the Tiger is dead, its corpse carpeted by maggots. And the way that the Irish economy, as seen primarily in its boom-bust real estate market, figures in French's books has also evolved. In Broken Harbor, the failed economy isn't simply a shady backdrop—it's motivation for murder. When three of a family of four are killed in their home in a depressingly under-populated seaside housing estate, Detective Mick Kennedy (from Faithful Place) is assigned to solve the case that left only the mother alive, maimed and unable (or is it unwilling?) to speak when the police first visit her in hospital. French saddles Kennedy with a lot of obstacles to create tension: a former workplace screw-up that puts pressure on him to solve this increasingly dark and complicated case; a rookie partner who may not be up to the task; an unstable sister who needs constant care; and a haunted past that connects Kennedy (and his sister) to Broken Harbor—a site now whitewashed into the generic, real estate-friendly "Brianstown" development. Like Jo Nesbo, who grounds his latest tale in Oslo's economic issues, which have led to a heroin epidemic, French makes expert use of the very real and serious economic problems that her adopted country has faced in recent years.
No one in Ireland is talking about recovery right now, not yet. While this is bad news for the Irish on a daily basis, every year or two, when Tana French turns her mind to Ireland's troubles, it's great news for everyone else.

Part Terrier, part horse? This sweet mutt is currently available for adoption at the ASPCA.
July 31 has gone to the dogs—and for good reason. It's Mutts Day! That's right, a whole day dedicated to embracing, saving and celebrating mixed-breed dogs. We can't think of a more deserving crew.
With the desire for designer dogs still going strong, one-of-a-kind pups are often left with the short end of the stick. What gives? Mutts rock!
They can be well-behaved and loyal family members, they're just as talented as their purebred counterparts, and do we really need to point out how ridiculously cute they are?
If you're the proud pet parent of a mixed breed, we hope you're celebrating Mutts Day by spending time with your furry companion! And if you're thinking about adding a new pet to the family, please consider giving a mixed breed a chance.
Thanks to all for making pet adoption your first option!TM
We never get used to it. No matter how many cases of cruelty our team investigates, the brutality of it still hits us hard in the heart. This case was no exception. In mid-July our Humane Law Enforcement department received a call from an eyewitness who saw a father and son beating their cat to death with a stick. We jumped into action.
Quickly finding the deceased cat in a garbage bag on the side of the road, our Agents subsequently obtained a search warrant for the home. A search uncovered a broken stick encrusted with cat fibers and blood in the attic. Jean Rog Murat, 60, and his son, Robenson Murat, 29, were arrested and taken into custody.
The Kings County District Attorney indicted the duo on charges of aggravated cruelty to animals; overdriving, torturing and injuring animals; and failure to provide proper sustenance for animals. If convicted, the defendants will face a maximum of two years of incarceration.
"This was a heinous act on an innocent animal and a clear case of violent abuse," says Stacy Wolf, Vice President and Chief Counsel of the ASPCA's Humane Law Enforcement department. "We praise the district attorney for his commitment to hold these perpetrators accountable for their cruel and callous acts."
Animal cruelty is a crime in every state. With your help, we fight back. Please join our battle against animal cruelty today!

After undergoing surgeries to treat not one but two types of cancer, Mystery was exhausted. And yet, each time this Shepherd mix saw her favorite person at ASPCA Animal Hospital, her big brown eyes lit up and her tail began to thump.
That's typical behavior from this big-hearted dog. She's friendly to everyone, and especially so to her special people.
"She has a great disposition," says ASPCA licensed veterinary technician Carol Algarin. "She was always friendly, even when we knew she was uncomfortable."
Mystery came to the ASPCA through our Humane Law Enforcement department, and we soon discovered she had a mammary gland tumor and a spindle cell tumor on her flank area. (Our vets believe the chance of recurrence is low.) But through her treatments, she maintained her sweet demeanor, good attitude and fondness for cuddling.
Carol isn't Mystery's only fan. Our Media team loved her so much that they brought her on the Nightly News with Chuck Scarborough on NBC! There, she demonstrated that she could Sit and Lie Down. (She's a really smart girl.)
If you are looking for a dog with whom to form a very strong bond, Mystery is an excellent choice. We adore her here, but we want to see her in the loving home she deserves. Mystery can live with other dogs and children ages six and up.
To adopt Mystery, please call our Animal Placement department at (212) 876-7700, ext. 4900. And please share Mystery on Facebook and Twitter! Let's get her the family she longs for.

Kent, OH (Sports Network) - Dir Archer and Trayion Durham each rushed for over 100 yards as the Kent State Golden Flashes rode a strong second half to a 35-24 win over the Akron Zips in Mid-American Conference play at Dix Stadium.
Archer racked up 126 yards and a touchdown on only 11 carries while Durham had 107 yards and three scores on 24 carries for Kent State (8-1, 5-0 MAC). Spencer Keith completed 14-of-19 pass attempts for 103 yards and also scored a touchdown on the ground. The Golden Flashes have won seven straight.
Dalton Williams threw for 312 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 30-of-41 passing for Akron (1-9, 0-6). Jawon Chisholm rushed for 115 yards and a touchdown and Marquelo Suel hauled in 11 passes for 85 yards. Akron has lost seven straight.
Akron opened up the scoring with a 13-yard touchdown pass from Williams to Jerrod Dillard midway through the first quarter. The score finished off a 14- play drive that went for 89 yards and lasted more than six minutes.
Williams hooked up with Dillard for a touchdown, this time from 21 yards out, as the Zips' lead grew to 14-0.
Kent State cut into that lead early in the second quarter when Durham scored on a one-yard touchdown run.
The Zips answered right back with a 50-yard touchdown run from Chisholm a little more than four minutes later.
Keith scored on a four-yard touchdown run to put an end to an eight-play, 60-yard drive.
Robert Stein would add a 32-yard field goal as time expired in the first half to move Akron to a 24-14 advantage.
A six-yard touchdown run from Durham midway through the third quarter helped Kent State cut into the Zips' lead.
Kent State would take its first lead of the game on a 30-yard touchdown run from Archer on the Golden Flashes' next possession.
Durham would add a 15-yard touchdown run with less than a minute left in regulation to seal the win for the Golden Flashes.
Kent State converted on just 3-of-11 attempts on third down but was successful on both fourth down conversion tries.

Recent Graduates Present at SNAME Conference
A paper entitled The Design of a Wooden, Solar-Electric Launch for the Carmans River Maritime Center was presented by three 2011 Webb Institute graduates (Hampton Dixon, Andrew Lachtman, and Lidia Mouravieff) at this year's Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers (SNAME) Annual Meeting. This paper was adapted from their 2011 Webb Institute senior thesis.
Abstract: In an age of advanced composite construction, America's rich tradition of wooden boatbuilding is slowly fading into the past. During the winter of 2010, the Carmans River Maritime Center (CRMC), a non-profit museum and workshop for wooden boatbuilding located in Brookhaven, New York, partnered with Webb Institute to design a solar-electric wooden launch for ecological tours of the Carmans River and surrounding environments. This project aimed to meet the CRMC's design needs. Given the mission of the vessel, emphasis was placed on utilizing eco-friendly technologies, including photovoltaic panels and all-electric propulsion. Through research and a strong client-designer relationship, the team recommended solutions for synthesizing modern technology with traditional aesthetics. The final design is a 24-ft, six-passenger launch powered by a 4.0-kW electric outboard motor with a design speed of 5 knots.

Comments On Jun 26, 2013:The guide itself is very durable but the rub blocks are like butter. I have worn through a couple of these very quickly and never had a guide wear our at this rate. I plan to upgrade to the TM complete chain guide in the future.

Comments On Jun 21, 2013:Good product if you're on a budget. Wears quickly, but replacement is cheap and easy. Will be upgrading in the future, but for now, this is getting the job done.

Same Universe, Different Lenses: Science, Ethics, and Religion in Dialogue
This is a transcript of an interview given by Dr. Jennifer Wiseman at The Faith Angle Forum Conference on Religion, Politics, & Public Life on November 5, 2013.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
This is a transcript of an interview given by Dr. Jennifer Wiseman at The Faith Angle Forum Conference on Religion, Politics, & Public Life on November 5, 2013.
Some people see science and religion as enemies, at war for leadership in our modern culture. Others see science and religion as completely separate and unrelated facets of life. However, science is not the only source of facts, and religion reaches beyond the realm of values and morals. In fact, religion can have a positive impact on science, such as in the development of modern medical ethics. Many early scientific leaders were devout Christians, as are some scientific leaders today. Science can also enhance the spiritual life of believers. Christians rejoice in scientific discoveries that reveal the glory of God the creator.
(Updated June 27, 2012)
This chapter from Mark Noll's book Jesus Christ and the Life of the Mind seeks to understand science through a Christ-centered lens. Overall, if one accepts that nature is created and sustained by Jesus Christ, the author explains, then one must conclude that looking at nature is, in fact, the best way to learn about nature.
Mark Noll, historian and author of The Scandal of the Evangelical Mind, describes how Andrew Dickson White relentlessly advocated a view of history in which Science and Dogmatic Theology have always been at war with one another. Noll identifies 16 reasons why White's notion of warfare is mistaken.
NASA astronomer Jennifer Wiseman asserts that studying creation can show us the nature of God; science can inform us of what we need to do as stewards of God's creation; understanding the natural world gives us a deeper knowledge of Jesus Christ; and science can give us a better understanding of ourselves. This essay was presented at the November 2009 Theology of Celebration Workshop.
Many evangelicals believe that Young Earth Creationism is the only authentic, biblical way for Christians to understand origins, and that until the advent of Darwin's theory of evolution, it was the only view held by Christians. However, in this excerpt from Saving Darwin, Karl Giberson explains that Young Earth Creationism's origins are surprisingly recent.
Many independent measurements have established that the Earth and the universe are billions of years old. Geologists have found annual layers in glaciers that can be counted back 740,000 years. Using the known rate of change in radio-active elements (radiometric dating), some Earth rocks have been shown to be billions of years old, while the oldest solar system rocks are dated at 4.6 billion years. Astronomers use the distance to galaxies and the speed of light to calculate that the light has been traveling for billions of years. The expansion of the universe gives an age for the universe as a whole: 13.7 billion years old.
(Updated April 16, 2012)
In Christian belief, God reveals himself in both the written book of the Bible and the created "book" of the natural world. Thus, the truths we find in scripture should not conflict with the truths we find in nature. Yet at times the two revelations seem to be saying contradictory things about how God made the world. Since God does not lie, the conflict must occur at the level of human interpretation: either a misunderstanding of what God is revealing in nature, or a misunderstanding of what God is revealing in scripture. Conflicts motivate us to reevaluate both interpretations. Christians may disagree on whether the scientific or the Biblical interpretation needs to change, but we can agree that God speaks to us in both revelations.
(Updated on March 10, 2012)
The science of evolution is consistent with many religions and with atheism. Science alone cannot prove or disprove the existence of God. Some scientific evidence, such as fine-tuning, points to a Creator, but even this does not support Christianity over other religions. However, Christian doctrine is broadly compatible with scientific accounts of our origins. Though belief in the Christian God is not scientifically provable, it is not irrational. Commitment to Christ is a reasonable choice supported by a variety of evidence from history, philosophy, and the testimony of others. Ultimately, the Holy Spirit works in each person's life to bring them into relationship with Jesus.
(Updated on March 10, 2012)
Fine-tuning refers to the surprising precision of nature's physical constants, and the beginning state of the Universe. To explain the present state of the universe, even the best scientific theories require that the physical constants of nature and the beginning state of the Universe have extremely precise values.
Given the stark difference between evolution and six-day creation, many people assume that Darwin's theory shook the foundations of the Christian faith. In truth, the literal six-day interpretation of Genesis 1-2 was not the only perspective held by Christians prior to modern science. St. Augustine (354-430), John Calvin (1509-1564), John Wesley (1703-1791), and others supported the idea of Accommodation. In the Accommodation view, Genesis 1-2 was written in a simple allegorical fashion to make it easy for people of that time to understand. In fact, Augustine suggested that the 6 days of Genesis 1 describe a single day of creation. St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) argued that God did not create things in their final state, but created them to have potential to develop as he intended. The views of these and other Christian leaders are consistent with God creating life by means of evolution.
Even before Darwin published The Origin of Species in 1859, many Christians had already accepted an old Earth. One of the first supporters of evolutionary science in America—Harvard biologist Asa Gray—was a devout Christian. Conservative theologian B. B. Warfield also accepted the science of evolution, and both he and Asa Gray rejected the idea that evolution leads to atheism. Even the authors of The Fundamentals, published between 1910 and 1915, accepted an old earth. It wasn't until a century after Darwin that a large number of evangelicals and fundamentalists began to accept the combination of flood geology and 6-day creation promoted by Seventh-day Adventists.

Comments On Feb 02, 2014:I bought this along with the airbox cleaning cover. If you've ever had to remove the stock air filter wing nut off an RMZ you would know that this little piece makes your day. The stock wing nut and lack of clearance in the box means spending 5+ min fiddling to screw your air filter back on. With this piece it's a piece of cake. I love little bits that make maintenance easier on my bikes.

A plan to end poverty and bring World Peace
I've learned that World Peace and ending poverty are actually the same goal. The two go hand in hand. The same thing is needed to accomplish both, and neither can be accomplished without it.
The people are the true power of any nation. The leaders must to some extend do the will of the people. Even a cruel dictator must to some extend do the will of the people. So, if the people hate, the nation makes wars, and its children die. If the people love, the nation has peace.
How can a nation with a 2 billion dollar defense budget defend itself against a nation with a 700 billion dollar budget? There is only one way, and that is to make the people of that nation refuse to allow that war.
We need to accomplish two things to make this work. One is that small nation will need to give a billion dollars, or half of its defense budget, to my project to help end world poverty. That money must have maximum efficiency in its poverty reduction effect, and I have just the project for that.
The problem is, the other thing. I can not do this without the support of the people. That, I need help on. How do I get the support I need.
Once one country does this, other countries will see how smart it is, and they will start to do it too. Soon, every country will stop making weapons, "and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. "
Anyway, here's a link to my new video, which might help you understand. It's called A New Hope for Mankind.
Nov 8 2013: Most of the poverty programs are designed not to eradicate poverty, but to boost the ego of donation givers , charity doers.Donation and Charity will never eradicate poverty, but the Attitude of sharing will do somthing.Poor people have to be educated , not the current process of education. But the education that changes their way of thinking and attitude.Poor people are constantly reminded through various means that they are poor , they are poor and only way to elevate their status is to give them everything free.And the poor people believe that those who have abundance of things have been given to them(not poor people) free by someone else or may God.Nov 8 2013: Poverty is product both for non-profit and profit organizations.For non-profit organisations it is an evergreen cow to milk endlessly and for ever.And for profit organisation it is opportunity to get recognition and win social awards. For some people it is profession.There are more that 60 lac non profit organisations in India who claim to be engaged in the eradication of the proverty.
Now,imagine that if the poverty has been eradicated all of a sudden , then what would happen to those organizations who are engaged in the process of poverty eradication program. Many organizations will become defunct and many people will become jobless . And again creating a set of poor people. But,Don't worry poverty will never be eradicated.Nov 4 2013: STEP 1: Increase in the consciousness of oneness so that the processes and structures of society start to reflect that unity
STEP 2: Repeat Step 1 until world peace is established
STEP 3: Repeat Step 2 until you are sure it is not fragileOct 31 2013: Peace if achieved is always fragile.
Its human nature to squabble now and then. I often liken us to chickens in a coop. Every so often a big squabble and then they all settle down again.
Any viable peace solution needs to embrace the requirement for a stable workable distribution of food and resources so that everyone has an opportunity in life.
Societies of ants have evolved where the society efficiently works together for the benefit of them all.
We need to evolve our ways of doing things. Its an evolution not a revolution. I have written an essay see www.goviralbaby.com in which i describe how capitalism can evolve to deliver sustainability and peace.
Oct 31 2013: God has a plan for a better system of society, which will make peace last, and not be fragile. Much of that plan is in the Bible, but hidden, so that only one person, the Savior, would fully understand it. Part of that plan is described in my video.
It is similar to the society used by Ants, and similar to what you have talk about on your website, but it differs in that it takes into account the need to change the motivation system, which determines how be people behave and what they care about.
We are all a product of our environment, and our society is our environment. Change our society, and we change how we behave, and what we care about. We become different people.
As my video shows, we will not be good people, until our society is changed.
TonyOct 30 2013: poverty is an invention of human greed and the illusion of wealth and the feeling we need money to survive, if we could all just get along and share we would be just fine i feel war is a stupid pointless dung fight were just trying to through are crap faster and harder then the other guy, and the men who initiate these wars hide behind there solders so they dont get any poop on them. some times i feel like the world is in kindergarten and were all trying to put all the toys in are corner, like grow up.
Oct 29 2013: So let me get this straight, two countries are at war, you want the smaller one to give you half of its defence budget of 700 or a billion dollars to develop the country whilst the bigger one takes over because you have ploughed their defence budget into farming equipment?
- 0
Oct 30 2013: Not into farming equipment, into a project to eliminate world wide poverty.
That 2 billion dollar budget will not do any good against a nation with a 700 billion dollar budget.
When an intelligent person must do battle, he seeks out a battleground which will give him the most advantages, and give his enemy the most disadvantages.
The very core of the battle ground, is the love/hate relationship with the people themselves. That is the only place that the tiny poor nation can possibly get a victory. It can use half of its military budget on the right project, to make a huge impact on ending world wide poverty. That, with a few other essential ingredients, would make it virtually impossible for that rich nation to attack them.
TonyOct 29 2013: Hi.
In the 1980's a World Commission of sorts, that involved almost all the countries in the world, studied, planned and came up with $ figures for solving (ending, eradicating), every problem known to humankind, all species of life and the planet itself. Illiteracy, poverty, slavery, war, disease, dirty air, land, water and food, the continuing extinction of plant & animal species, resources, pollution, you name it, it's in there. The cost for each? Astronomical, mind-boggling but achievable. The total for everything, for everywhere, and for everybody? Only 1/4 of the worlds total military spending for weapons of every kind and description. The solution? Take the money away from the military/industrial complex! Or, refuse to participate in the monetary system and refuse to do anything those in "authority" dictate people must do, or else! The "or else" is not from them but from us, if we don't do what we need, not what they want, demand and need.
Everyone falsely keeps on believing things can only..."get done"... because of money. It is obvious things not only..."don't get done"...because of money but our false belief that we need money to do things (solve our problems), is actually blocked by money, the monetary system and the power we have given it. That is all. Take your power back.
You're almost there now. The global economy will collapse. It cannot survive such insanity. When it does, the world will be offered a global currency and a take it or leave choice with the threat (just as they threatened American'ts with how much worse it would be if they didn't approve the bailout!), that things will be worse if they don't accept a global currency. Don't take it. They lose all power. Go on about your business as humans doing what we do. What is it we do? Fulfill our needs. Our needs are jobs. Our jobs are needs. Corporations are people. Go to work, keep things running no matter what is said. Nothing costs money. Everything costs people. It's a start. Fine tune itOct 29 2013: Anyway, isn't it kind of pathetic that people are not willing to watch a 2 hour video for the sake of World Peace and ending poverty?
I've done several extensive searches for plans for World Peace and ending Poverty, and saving mankind, and there's really one realistic plan out there, other than the mass meditation plan which I expect few people will take seriously.
So it is not like you'd have to watch a whole bunch of people's peace plans, 'cause there really is only one.
People really should budget their time, as well as money. World Peace and poverty should both get a fair amount of time and money. I can understand people not giving money, 'cause they don't know of a workable plan to utilize such money, but there is not reason not to give time into searching out workable plans.
TonyOct 29 2013: There's too much to say for a short video. I've been trying to think of what to put into a short video, for a short promo video.
Having governments heavily armed actually endangers the people far more than it keeps us safe. We (and everyone in every country) are always in greatest danger from our own governments.
Those dangers include nuclear war, as well as a military take over, and just plain old fashioned government corruption.
As far as one nation trying to take over, there is one thing which make that possible, and that is the military draft. If there was an international law that banned the military draft, and required all nations to immediately attack any nation attempting a military draft, then there'd be no way for any nation to get the soldiers needed to go on a conquering spree. Then, soldiers would only fight for causes they believe strongly in. Nations would have very strong defense, but fairly weak offense, which would make conquering other nations very difficult.
Oct 29 2013: Actually, banning a draft would only help to shift the balance towards small, high tech armies as opposed to large, low tech ones. If anything, in encourages the spending of more capital, to compensate for the reduced manpower.
Modern warfare is more about materiel then about men, at least in terms of quantity.
As for the government being the greatest threat to its own people, that's nonsense if I ever heard it. That's only true in places where you have civil wars, everywhere else, not so much.
I'm sure the people of South Korea feel much more threatened by their nuclear armed northern neighbors than by their own democratically elected government for example.
Having a well armed government is actually crucial for peace. Look up the concept of a monopoly on violence; countries fall apart without it, in a process that usually involves a civil war.
Oct 29 2013: Governments do not fall apart because the people have weapons. They fall apart, because the governments become corrupt, and the need to ended. When the people have weapons, they simply end those corrupt governments a little earlier, and with less bloodshed.
The United States currently spends 39% of all the money spent on military in the world. Several times more than any other nation. The United States is also one of the highest percentage based on GDP. So more percentage of each persons income. Does that make any logical sense? Is that intelligent use of money?
Oct 29 2013: No, governments can fall apart just fine because they failed to maintain their monopoly on violence. Look at Libya for example--their prime minister was kidnapped by what essentially amounts to an overly armed street gang just a few weeks ago. The government doesn't have de-facto control over much of the country, and their economy and standards of living suffer heavily for it. Honestly, I'm waiting until parts of the country start succeeding.
All because they don't have a proper national military. Instead, each militia does as it likes.
Libya is hardly a unique example either. Lebanon, Somalia, DR Congo, and others are all run by militias as opposed to proper governments. It works about as well as you'd expect.
As for the US' defense budget, I'll readily agree its overinflated, but there is a big difference between reduced spending as opposed to no spending at all.Oct 28 2013: lovely dream ,time will answer you and the hope can keep the track of time...Thank you for your Querying.Oct 28 2013: Hi Tony,
In 1978, Quakers (in the U.K) were instrumental in forming what is now Conscience—the peace tax campaign to campaign for a change in the law to facilitate objection to taxation for military purposes without weakening the social obligation to pay tax. Supporting such campaigns might be a good intermediary step to unilateral disarmament.
(PS: I think a much shorter video than 2-hours long would help your cause. You need to be able to get your message over in 10 minutes.)Oct 28 2013: Sure, we all just give away all our weapons, leaving us defenseless against that one jackass who kept his, which will proceed to use them to take over the world (or at least as much as he can manage before everyone else re-arms).
Except it won't be that one jackass, it'll be everyone. No one is dumb enough to leave themselves defenseless, its just asking to be stabbed in the back.
Pretty standard's prisoner dilemma actually, it only works if everyone agrees to do it together, and thereby expose themselves to the risk of being screwed over for their kindness. In other words, it'll never happen, and for good reason.Oct 28 2013: A people united by a great idea would be unstoppable in their advance towards their goals. The problem for great ideas is division and hypocrisy. There are more selfish leaders around, and their recent decisions would give us an hint of what is in their hearts.
And how about the masses and their gleeful acceptance of lies and deciet?

Written in 2010, Rescuers of Skydivers is a novel that Lawler says uses the "lenses of sadness and surrealism, fantasy and absurdity, levity and lyricism" to present "a family that is both embedded in and hovers over a small town.""Though there is a strong sense of story, the novel evolves around images and motifs; it is more like opening a piece of origami – rather than reading," he says. "It is what Virginia Woolf, Kurt Vonnegut and Gabriel Garcia Marquez might have written if they lived in a cellar together and decided to collaborate after listening to a flute song of Kokopelli. (Just kidding, of course. They would also have to have been wearing parachutes.)"A member of Le Moyne's class of 1976, Lawler teaches Introduction to Playwriting, Advanced Playwriting, Creative Writing for Performance, Scriptwriting, and Creative Writing Workshop at the College. In addition to Rescuers of Skydivers, he is the author of five collections of poetry, most recently Underground (Notes Toward an Autobiography) and Trade World Center. Lawler plans to release two more books, a collection of poetry titled Child Sings in the Womb and a selection of short stories titles The Meaning of If, next year. He has been awarded fellowships by the New York State Foundation for the Arts, the National Endowment of the Arts, and the Constance Saltonstall Foundation for the Arts. Lawler's poetry and fiction appear in over 100 journals including American Letters & Commentary, American Poetry Review, and Central Park. His work also includes experimental multimedia pieces, participation in slam competitions, and performance art.Lawler was among three finalists in the fiction category of the CNY Book Awards, which also honor authors of poetry and nonfiction. The winners were announced during a reception at the La Casita Cultural Center that served as a fundraiser for the YMCA's Downtown Writers Center."I was shocked to have received this award," he says. "I am grateful to the local community of writers -- those from the Downtown Writers Center, those from Syracuse University, and those current and former students. And I am thankful for my Le Moyne colleagues, particularly David Lloyd and Linda Pennisi."

"Small Family Tree with 4 Hanging Frames"
By George
Comments: This definitely is a memorable gift. I bought it for my parent's 25th anniversary. We're a small family but getting this for them was something they can cherish forever. The family tree is a beautiful item as well as the engraving. It's a surprise so I am anxious to see their reaction when they open it. Many thanks!!
"Tree Frame"
By Jasmine F.
Comments: I purchased the larger tree frame for myself and my sister fell in love with it! She couldn't justify getting the larger tree like mine because she has one daughter, and thought it was too big. I was so excited to see that you added the smaller size! I got it as a surprise for her birthday and she was ecstatic! Your items and customer service make it so easy to keep shopping here. Thank you!
"2 for 2"
By thomas notarangelo
Comments: This family tree was my second purchase from Memorable Gifts. As with the first it was better then expected. My mom will love the family tree when she opens it on Christmas Day. Thanks Again and I be back soon.

CAPSULE REPORT: Pasta Primavera is easy to make, pretty to look at and can be served hot or cold. There are many variations on the recipe. "Primavera" means "Spring" in Italian; the idea is to use bright-colored vegetables that evoke the bright floral colors of Spring. You can use almost any pasta from fettuccine to corkscrews (see our Pasta Glossary for options). This recipe is adapted from the Sable & Rosenfeld Elegant Entertaining Cookbook.
There is no one "set" recipe for Pasta Primavera. It can be enjoyed hot or cold, with a variety of different sauces or vinaigrettes and different shapes of pasta. And the vegetables in this vegetarian pasta dish can be whatever looks best in the market. A combination of red, green, yellow and orange colors will make your dish look the most tempting.
Makes 4 servings. Serve with green salad and crusty bread. For a special touch, serve with garlic bread hot from the oven.

Ok guys, the father inlaw has made a smaller version radial engine all aluminum its a work of art to say the least. He made every single piece right down to the push rods and spark plugs. Anyway he has asked if I can make him a stand to display it at shows.
Basicaly he is looking for an L shaped type stand made from 1/4 " aluminum 12" wide 13 " tall 18 " for the base so this is his request. My question is this, I will be welding this with my diversion 180 ( Im aware it's maxed out at 3/16) but with a little pre heat I think I will be ok being that im not going to run a full bead on this this thing, probably a few 2" beads or so on both sides. should I taper the top piecs coming down to join the base for the ease of welding? thinking of clamping a piece of angle to help prevent things for moving around.If you guys got any input or ideas to help in this project please feel free to chime in thanks, Eric

Alum. project
If you are able to pickup a small bottle of 75/25 argon helium mix, it would greatly increase the weldability of that angle. Along with preheat you are good to go.

I agree however all the lws around me are saying the helium is hard to come by these days. do ya think beveling the verticle pieces edge where it meets the base would help some? Im thinking warpage should not be a problem with the approach im takeing , no? Thanks for the help in advance, Eric
Alum. project
I would bevel both the base and the vertical peace 2" from each end. Clamp the angle in the middle, not Behind where you are welding, that way you don't draw the heat away from the joint.

Just picked up a used Syncrowave 250dx last week. I've been happily test welding with various settings and materials. I'm new to TIG welding.
It was time to try the Pulser feature. However, pressing the On/Off button on the Pulser does nothing. No indicators turn on.
Is it broken or am I missing something?
If broken, where do I begin to diagnose and repair it (assuming I can afford to)?

Damaged: An Animated Web Series
Hey guys. My friends and I just released the first episode of a new web series called Damaged. Brooklyn comedian Liz Miele is the writer/creator of the show, and my friend Grant Lindahl and I are the animators. Illustrator Adam Record designed the characters. We also have a lot of well-known comics doing the voices. This includes Liz Miele, Jermaine Fowler, RG Daniels, and Carmen Lynch.
The show follows TJ and Emily, two broken robots adopted by human parents in the future. They go through their daily lives at PS 001 dealing with future high school robot problems. Check out episode 1 and let me know what you think. Thanks!

Praxair and Air Products have announced their support of the Helium Stewardship Act of 2013, which seeks to to reform and reauthorize private helium sales from the federal helium reservoir amid dwindling supply from the US Bureau of Land Management (BLM) reserves.

Your game consoles, DVD players, printers, and other peripheral devices drain expensive electricity from your home 24/7--even when you've turned them off!

Smart Strip does so much more than protect your electronics from power surges. I was surprised to learn that when you turn your devices off, they don't go off completely—many of them continue to drain power. Smart Strip has a configuration of outlets to prevent this to save you both electricity and money. I use them all over the house!
