Twelve Years a Slaveby Solomon Northup
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
After living as a free man for the first thirty-three years of his life, Solomon Northup was drugged, kidnapped, and sold into slavery, leaving behind a wife and three children in New York. Sold to a Louisiana plantation owner who was also a Baptist preacher, Northup proceeded to serve several masters, some who were brutally cruel and others whose humanity he praised. After years of bondage, he met an outspoken abolitionist from Canada who notified Northup's family of his whereabouts, and he was subsequently rescued by an official agent of the state of New York. Twelve Years a Slave is his account of this unusual series of events. Northup describes life on cotton and sugar cane plantations in meticulous detail. One slave narrative scholar calls his narrative one of the most detailed and realistic portraits of slave life. He also leavens his account with wry humor and cultural commentary, making many parts of the narrative read more like travel writing than abolitionist literature. Twelve Years a Slave presents the remarkable story of a free man thrown into a hostile and foreign world, who survived by his courage and cunning.

Soon to be a major motion picture starring Chiwetel Ejiofor, Michael Fassbender, Benedict Cumberbatch, Paul Dano, Paul Giamatti, Lupita Nyong'o, Sarah Paulson, Brad Pitt, and Alfre Woodard, this tie-in edition features a foreword from acclaimed director Steve McQueen
Perhaps the best written of all the slave narratives, Twelve Years a Slaveand#160;is a harrowing memoir about one of the darkest periods in American history. It recounts how Solomon Northup, born a free man in New York, was lured to Washington, D.C., in 1841 with the promise of fast money, then drugged and beaten and sold into slavery. He spent the next twelve years of his life in captivity on a Louisiana cotton plantation.
After his rescue, Northup published this exceptionally vivid and detailed account of slave life. It became an immediate bestseller and today is recognized for its unusual insight and eloquence as one of the very few portraits of American slavery produced by someone as educated as Solomon Northup, or by someone with the dual perspective of having been both a free man and a slave.
A collection of historic writings from the slave-owner-turned-abolitionist sisters portrayed in Sue Monk Kidds novel The Invention of Wings
Sarah and Angelina Grimkés portrayal in Sue Monk Kidds latest novel, The Invention of Wings, has brought much-deserved new attention to these inspiring Americans. The first female agents for the American Anti-Slavery Society, the sisters originally rose to prominence after Angelina wrote a rousing letter of support to renowned abolitionist William Garrison in the wake of Philadelphias pro-slavery riots in 1935. Born into Southern aristocracy, the Grimkés grew up in a slave-holding family. Hetty, a young house servant, whom Sarah secretly taught to read, deeply influenced Sarah Grimkés life, sparking her commitment to anti-slavery activism. As adults, the sisters embraced Quakerism and dedicated their lives to the abolitionist and womens rights movements. Their appeals and epistles were some of the most eloquent and emotional arguments against slavery made by any abolitionists. Their words, greeted with trepidation and threats in their own time, speak to us now as enduring examples of triumph and hope.

Gunmen kill 5 Afghan deminers
Gunmen have shot dead five Afghan mine clearers in an ambush in northern Afghanistan, their UN-funded company said, in one of the bloodiest attacks on non-government workers in months.
The attackers halted a convoy of workers for Afghan Technical Consultants in the northern province of Jawzjan as they drove back to their camp after clearing mines in a remote area, their director said.
They attackers opened fire on the first vehicle and shot at the others, which included an ambulance, as they turned around and sped off, director Kefayatullah Eblagh said.
"Three people stopped the vehicle and started shooting at them without saying anything," he said.
Some of the men were able to use demining equipment to shield themselves from the barrage of bullets, he said. "Five people were killed and seven injured."
It was the worst attack on the company in its 18 years of operations in Afghanistan, he said. "It was terrible."
After nearly three decades of war, Afghanistan is one of the world's most mined countries. Several groups are working with UN and other international funding to rid the country of mines, which kill or maim scores of people every year.
Mr Eblagh said the dead men were aged between 30 and 40 and came from various parts of the country.
Two of the wounded had been released from hospital and one was in serious condition at a hospital in the northern city of Mazar-i-Sharif, he said.
Another four were in a hospital of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), which was deployed to Afghanistan to help the Government fight a Taliban-led insurgency and rebuild from years of war.
The attackers were unknown, Mr Eblagh said, adding he doubted they had intended to hit the Afghan deminers who had support from communities in the area.
Insurgents, mainly from the Taliban, have killed dozens of people associated with an internationally-funded drive to help Afghanistan rebuild, including non-government workers, doctors and teachers.
Most of the attacks take place in the south and east but there have been several incidents in the north, where factional rivalry, warlords and criminality also have a hand in the violence.
The head of a district in Jawzjan and a highway police commander in northern Kunduz were murdered over the weekend in incidents that the Taliban claimed to have carried out.
But deminers have also been targeted in the spiralling unrest in Afghanistan.
In August last year the bullet-riddled bodies of three mine clearers were found dumped in a village in the southern province of Kandahar, which sees a lot of Taliban activity, after they had been missing for several days.
In April 2007, dozens of Taliban attacked a US-funded mine-clearing team in the south, killing three deminers, three guards and a woman passing by.
Afghanistan, backed by some of the world's most powerful militaries, is battling to put down the Taliban insurgency, which was its deadliest last year with more than 8,000 people killed - most of them rebels.
There have already been several bloody clashes this year. A dozen Taliban were killed on Sunday in the southern province of Uruzgan where about 40 were killed a day earlier, police said.
Four Afghan villagers were meanwhile killed in Ghazni province when a Taliban weapons cache blew up.
Officials are hoping countries will make extra pledges of troops and resources to ISAF to combat the violence at a NATO summit next month.

Highlights of the live Linux landscape
Many fine live Linux distributions are waiting for you right now on the Internet. The right choice depends on what you need.
A Linux live distribution is a complete operating system that starts and works exclusively from a CD or DVD. You can boot the live Linux system from any PC as long as the system supports the hardware. Because a live system runs from the CD or DVD drive, live distros don't alter the contents of the hard disk. Windows users who are thinking of switching to Linux can use a live distro to try Linux without disturbing their configuration. You can also use a live distro to test whether a particular computer supports Linux or to recover a damaged system.

Manipulative movement skills are motor skills that use hands, feet or another body part to move or manipulate an object. Manipulative movements are either gross motor skills, like kicking a ball, or fine motor skills, like coloring with a crayon or picking up a small object.Know More
Manipulative movement skills help children learn about their world, strengthen eye-hand coordination and improve dexterity. These skills also have a large impact on writing and artistic and athletic ability.
Manipulative movements begin with infants when they grip onto things, such as a finger. The skills progress with toddlers as they learn to play with blocks and toys. By the time a child is preschool age, his manipulative movements are strong and he becomes more self-sufficient. As manipulative movements progress, a child's self-care improves, allowing him to dress himself and brush his hair and teeth.
Some children need assistance with developing manipulative movement skills. This can be accomplished by supplying the child with small toys that require hand control and manipulation. Things like puzzles and Play-Doh give children opportunities to increase these fine motor skills. In some cases, children may need to work with an occupational therapist or rehab facility to gain adequate manipulation skills.Learn more about Fitness & Exercise
Translational motion is the movement of an object from one point to another through space. An example of this is a bullet fired from a rifle.Full Answer >
Gravitational energy is the movement of an object or mass that is caused by the pull of gravity. This is caused on Earth by the strong attraction of all other masses to be drawn back to Earth's center. An example of gravitational energy is water from a river tumbling over a cliff to form a waterfall.Full Answer >
Since friction opposes movement, it causes resistance that makes it harder for a sliding object to move, thus slowing down movement. Friction can be seen through the example of a car making a stop; the wheels and breaks cause friction, making the car slow down. In addition to affecting solid objects, friction also causes resistance with glass and liquids by causing a collision that results in heat.Full Answer >
The drag equation is a formula used to calculate the force of drag experienced by an object due to movement through a fully enclosing fluid. The drag equation is D = Cd * A * .5 * r * V^2. The drag equation states that drag (D) is equal to the drag coefficient (Cd) times the density (r) times half of the velocity (V) squared times the reference area (A).Full Answer >

Voice actors needed
The story was interesting enough, and the drawings were pleasing, but man oh man, where did you get people to do the voicing??? their intonations were off, you can't tell what the character is thinking very well, and you have bugs in your background music. the mood of the music is very good, but to hear it suddenly skip, that's not cool.

The Xbox 360 remains a great video and gaming console, but fans will be better served by older 360 bundles -- or waiting for the Xbox One.
Here are the absolute best video game consoles to buy for 2015.
Certainly an acquired taste, The Evil Within is sure to satiate the horror fanatic. For those with an appetite for an investment-heavy exploit through the mind of a madman, The Evil Within is more than capable, even with a few bumps along the way.
FIFA 15 is easily the most realistic soccer game out there, even if it at times feels a bit over-the-top.
Destiny is a victim of the hype machine created around it. It's a refined console shooter that feels great during the action, but goes stale during just about every other component of the game.
The next generation of gaming won't only be defined by flashy graphics. They'll need to offer something that current games can't.
Watch Dogs manages to impress at times, but its overly ambitious promise is never fully realized. There's a lot of fluff baked into the experience that might leave some disappointed and wanting more.
This year's Madden football for Xbox 360 feels more like a throwback than a true step forward.
Far Cry 4 borrows a lot from the last game, but it adds enough excitement, fresh ideas and a brilliant new landscape to warrant the return trip.
It's not the best Borderlands experience out there, but The Pre-Sequel is a solid entry that will satisfy Borderlands diehards most. If you've never played a Borderlands game though, try starting with Borderlands 2.
Karateka is an attractive remake of a classic, but simplistic combat and limited replay value keep it from greatness.

To make it work, Williams-Flournoy had to have athletes. It's a scheme that works only if everyone is in tiptop shape. The prize recruit is Rodgers, who has been called Sugar practically since birth and was a very good golfer by the time she was 12 before discovering her talent for basketball.
Rodgers played in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia for Williams-Flournoy's brother and renowned AAU coach Boo Williams and would have her game critiqued by the person she lovingly calls "Momma Boo" _ Terri and Boo's mother. With that kind of comfort level, it was an easy choice to spurn the offers from more established women's programs and head to Georgetown.
Rodgers was a five-time Big East rookie of the week last season and has been conference player of the week twice this season. She's the type of star who can draw bigger crowds to McDonough and, perhaps one day, get the women a game at the Verizon Center as part of a doubleheader with the men.
Should that ever happen, it would be easier for Williams-Flournoy and the current men's coach, John Thompson III, to exchange pregame best wishes. The two coaches were hired in the same year _ 2004 _ and they often text each other to offer congratulations or compare notes. Williams-Flournoy even runs one backdoor play Thompson taught her from his Princeton offense, a rare crossover between their two distinct styles of play.
"JT3 is a great coach. I would be absolutely stupid not to be able to sit down and talk with him, not to be able to go over stuff with him," Williams-Flournoy said.
The payoff will come on the day the women have something to put in one of those trophy cases.
"We're the hidden treasure, right?" McNutt said. "Now, to our credit, you step inside our gym, you have our banner, when we returned to the (NCAA) tournament last year. It's a little lonely over there, but it's there. … Achieving something is one thing, but maintaining that success is a whole 'nother thing. Going forward, that's going to be the trick to this program."

text: The Legacy of Rome: A New Appraisal By Richard Jenkyns No cover image The Legacy of Rome: A New Appraisal By Richard Jenkyns Read preview Synopsis If the grandeur that was Rome has long since vanished, the impact of the Eternal City can still be felt in virtually every corner of Western culture. Students of speech and rhetoric to this day study the works of Cicero for guidance. We find Roman Law setting the model for legal systems from the twelfth century to the present. And Latin itself, far from being a "dead language," lives on not only in the Romance languages, but also in English vocabulary and grammar. Rhetoric, language, law--these are just a small part of the great Roman influence that has lasted throughout the centuries. The Legacy of Rome has long been considered the standard introduction to the achievements of the Roman world. Now in a completely new edition, this classic work brings together the latest scholarship in the field from some of the world's leading classical scholars. Unlike the previous version, which focused on such narrow topics as commerce and administration, the new edition broadens the spectrum of influence, showing the impact, for example, of Roman literature, art, politics, law, and language on western civilization. Jasper Griffin, for instance, looks to the works of Shakespeare, Milton, Keats, and Wordsworth, among others, to trace the lasting influence of the great Roman poet Virgil on the development of poetic forms such as the pastoral, epitomized by Virgil's Eclogues, and the epic poem, exemplified by the Aeneid. A.T. Grafton shows how Renaissance intellectuals such as Machiavelli and Guicciardini looked to Rome's past for political enlightenment, and found models of military strategy in the works of Tacitus and Livy. Editor Richard Jenkyns dispels the misconception of the Romans as purely imitative of the Greeks; he points out such uniquely Roman concepts as jurisprudence and citizenship, and architecture based on the round arch and the vault, as evidence of Roman innovativeness. Other contributors--George A. Kennedy, Robert Feenstra, and Nicholas Purcell--discuss the importance of the study of Roman rhetoric in preparing speakers for public life, the lasting influence of the Justinian code on Western legal development, and the impact on future civilizations of the romanticized notion of an imperial Rome and its magical ruins. Ranging from the pastoral tradition, to the development of the comedy, to the lasting influence of the Latin language, The Legacy of Rome provides a much-needed new appraisal of the richness of the great civilization which gave rise to a large part of Western heritage.

Youssef lives in a Palestinian camp. He works in buying and selling used metals to be melted and sold as raw materials.
This business is very good but needs a high amount of capital to improve and develop it; that's why he is acquiring a youth loan from Kiva partner Al Majmoua: to increase his business capital through increasing his amount of metal stock.
Youssef is happy with his business level in the meantime, and he is working hard to expand it in the future, through renting or buying a wide land to spread his metals according to quality, and to keep his customers capable of seeing what they need in a better way.

Knitters who want new worlds to conquer can reach for this guide to handspinning their own designer yarns. A rundown on equipment introduces the drop spindle, supported spindle, niddy-noddy, McMorran balance, and yarn meter, while the following sections include choosing wool and other fibers, presenting knitting patterns suitable for handspun yarn, and in-depth profiles of real urban spinners. For crafters who want to experiment with spinning but don't want to sacrifice too much of their knitting time, there are lots of ideas for jazzing up a thrift-store cardigan with handspun trim or knitting a boatneck pullover in a combination of commercial and handspun yarns. Methods for incorporating beads and threads into yarn and a technique for dyeing yarn in the dishwasher are also featured.

Local Brief: Whitbord headed top Air Force
Whitbord to play football at Air Force
Oak Park High quarterback Chandler Whitbord has committed to play football at the Air Force Academy.
Whitbord, with Oak Park receiver Matt Byer, was the co-offensive player of the year on The Star's All-County Football Team.
Whitbord accounted for 56 touchdowns and more than 4,300 yards in total offense. The 6-foot-3, 190-pound senior completed 199 of 321 passes for 3,235 yards, 43 touchdowns, while rushing for 1,126 yards and 13 scores.
He transferred from Oak Park to Oaks Christian, then transferred back for his senior season and was late to the recruiting process.
Air Force, which went 2-10 last season and 0-7 in the Mountain West Conference, is looking to bolster its squad and was pleased with Whitbord's size and athleticism.

Variance Films Picks Up North American Rights to Iranian Film 'Closed Curtain'
Living under house arrest since 2010, director Jafar Panahi ("The White Balloon") defies his 20-year ban on filmmaking with his latest movie, which won the Silver Bear for best script at the Berlin Film Festival.
Variance Films has acquired North American rights to acclaimed Iranian director Jafar Panahi's Closed Curtain, which will be released theatrically beginning July 9 at Film Forum in New York before expanding throughout the United States and Canada in the summer.
Living under house arrest since December 2010, Panahi (The White Balloon, This Is Not a Film, The Mirror) has defied his 20-year ban on filmmaking yet again with his latest film, which won the Silver Bear for best script at the Berlin Film Festival.
The film kicks off in a secluded house by the sea with the curtains shut, where a screenwriter hides from the world with only his dog as company. As dogs have been declared impure and forbidden from being walked in public -- an actual law in Iran -- the writer feels he is given no other option but to close off the outside world entirely. The tranquility is abruptly broken one night by the arrival of a young woman fleeing from the authorities. Refusing to leave, she takes refuge in the house. But come dawn, another unexpected presence will change everything.
"Jafar Panahi's bravery is surpassed only by his artistry," Variance Films' Dylan Marchetti said. "It's our ultimate hope that we can continue to bring attention to his unjust house arrest and ban from filmmaking while reminding the world that nobody can stop artists from developing their craft and sharing their creativity with audiences."
Closed Curtain was co-directed by Kambuzia Partovi and features Partovi, Maryam Moqadam and Panahi as the film's stars. Panahi also wrote, produced and edited the film.
Variance is a division of Amplify, the new all-rights distribution company formed in a merger between Variance (Sound City, Red Hook Summer, Go for Sisters) and GoDigital.
The deal was negotiated by Hengameh Panahi of Celluloid Dreams and Marchetti on behalf of Variance.
