Part Three: Bond
The older boy sucked in a drag of his cigarette and punched at the buttons on the remote, What? Saint drew his knees up to his chest, his eyes fixed on the far wall of the small basement as the changing channels of the television threw colored lights into the dark. Saint had skipped his detention and half of his last hour just so he could come visit Christopher early to make up for the time lost yesterday. Even though hed apologized and explained that it wasnt his fault Christopher still seemed a bit angry with him.
Hey, Christopher poked the tip of his cigarette through the hole in Saints jeans, singing the skin and making the younger boy jump, You were asking me something, right? Dont just sit there like a moron, finish the question! Saint rubbed at the burnt skin, fighting back the sting of tears, I was just wondering Christopher, do you love me?
The older boy

Saint watched the slashes of light dance over the ceiling, twisting and curling like the tides of the ocean thousands of miles away. The curtains blocked out most of the daylight but even the heavy black drapes in Aidens room couldnt hold onto blackness completely. The manor was completely silent. Echoes of the last midnight conversations absorbing into the walls where they would remain forever. It all seemed so peaceful
Aiden shifted next to him, his face lost in the contours of sleep, lips parted limply, pale skin practically glowing in the dark. His slender hand traveled blindly across the sheet, searching for solace in the wide bed. Saint scooted closer to him, taking the older boys hand and pressing it lightly to his cheek, watching curiously as Aidens eyes parted slowly. He blinked, eyes widening more as he drifted away from sleep, his fingers curling against Saints cheek.
Good morning, Saint whispered,

Part One: Gift
Autumn leaves pitched about in the wind like falling rain soaked with dyes of copper and crimson. The shriveled foliage settled on the last remaining shoots of grass quietly, a seasonal carpet to mark the passing of time. Feet pounded the black asphalt pathways as joggers fought to get in a last minute run before the snowfall. The metal playgrounds swarmed with children, venting out their energy before the long hibernation state winter brought.
Across the sidewalk from the playground, a solitary wooden bench sat in the chill, its only occupant staring off into the sky. The boy, who looked no older than eighteen, tugged at the sleeves of his knee-length overcoat and shivered, shifting his eyes from the clouds to the ground beside his feet. A colorful yellow ball sat in the woodchips inches from his boot, shifting from side to side as if it had just recently rolled there.
With a sigh that made the dark-haired teen seem much older then he looked, he bent over double a

Part Six: I thought thee fair...
The older boy grunted as Saint ran the last few feet between them and wrapped his arms around his stomach, pushing him forward into the door of his car. Shit! Christopher exclaimed, the box in his arms crashing to the ground from their collision, Dammit, Saint! Watch where the hell youre going. Saint took several steps back, folding his arms behind his back and smiling meekly, Sorry. I didnt mean to bump you so hard.
Christopher ran a hand through his lanky copper-colored hair, a scowl on his face as he picked up the box and turned to the younger boy. I got home early this morning. I dropped by your house to pick you up but you werent there he cocked an eyebrow, what the hell happened to your eye?
Saint rocked back on his heels, deliberately avoiding the second question, Sorry I wasnt there I spent the night at a friends.

Part Eight: Grounded
Saint scowled as he shut his bedroom door and let his backpack slide off his shoulder to the surprisingly wet-kept floor. It landed with a soft thump, spilling its contents over the carpet as Saint stepped over them and collapsed on the bed, pulling one of the pillows over his head to block out any noise. His mother had finally gotten fed up with him getting home late from school and grounded him for the remaining week. Still shed been spending a lot of time with her new boyfriend and would probably forget about the punishment by Wednesday
Saint let the pillow flop to the floor, pulling himself up so he could sit cross-legged and leaned back against the wall. He could hear them in the other room; his mothers dramatic chuckle at something her boyfriend had said it probably wasnt even funny. Saint pressed his palms over his ears as her giggles turned into sensual moans, followed soon after by a suggestive thump and crash of somet

Part Twelve: All My Time
Saint wrung shower water from his hair as he wiped away the fine layer of mist that coated the bathroom mirror. The few bruises on his face had already started to fade, leaving the skin a worn white color even paler than the rest of his complexion. Thoughtfully, Saint ran his fingers over the healing cut on his lip, thinking back to that night three days ago when it had been decided he would stay at the Vivaldi manor with Aiden. At first the idea had scared him hed never even mentioned Aiden to his mother and now here he was, three weeks after the first time they met, and he was living with him.
The mirror was starting to fog up again, blurring Saints view of his face and chest darkened with contusions. He let it happen, watching silently as the mist covered every inch of the mirror, leaving him a faint smudge at the center of it all. With a soft sigh, Saint turned away, grabbing the pair of faded jeans Aiden had loaned him from the side of the

Part Eleven: Midnight
The manor seemed empty, as usual. Long shadows cast over the walls from the setting sun, streaking the furniture and carpets with slashes of red and gold. Saint hugged his arms across his chest tightly, a chill running up his back when the sunlight was immediately wiped away as Vivaldi shut the double-oak door behind them. The old vampire shrugged off his long coat and draped it over the swirling back of an armchair, his expression controlled and careful.
Saint, Vivaldi said slowly, his hand reaching up to stroke the buttons of his loose silk shirt, I would ask that when you spend time within the walls of this house you take caution. His eyes flashed in the dark as he turned to look at the young boy standing in the foyer, Not even I can protect you from my own coven all the time. They are a free people and do as they wish.
Vivaldi paused for a moment, letting the words sink in before resting his hand on Saints shoulde

Part Nine: First Bite
Mrs. Owens frowned as she handed out the corrected test papers, her face telling how disappointed she was in the classs grades. She paused at Saints desk, her age-spotted hand shaking slightly as she set the paper down on his desk. For a moment it looked like she was going to say something, but changed her mind at the last moment and continued on down the row. Saint glanced at the page, his heart sinking as he observed the failing grade posted in red ink on top.
No wonder Mrs. Owens wasnt happy
Saint looked up at the clock just in time as the minute hand swirled by the twelve and the school bell screamed shrilly in the distance. All disappointment about the test forgotten, Saint shoved the paper in his bag and quickly fled the classroom before Mrs. Owens could call him to her desk again. A light smile played on his lips as he purposefully walked away from the waiting buses, turning instead in the direction of Vivaldi Manor several blocks aw

Part Thirteen: Family
Ill be leaving the house tonight.
Saint glanced up from the long green leaf cupped in his hands, staring across the thick foliage of the greenhouse to where Aiden sat on the other side of the row. The older boy observed Saint cautiously, choosing his next words with care. It will only be for a few hours you probably wont even notice Im gone. I just thought I should tell you in case you woke in the night and I wasnt back yet.
Saint let the leaf fall, stretching his legs out across the greenhouse floor as he tilted his head, Why are you leaving? At first the older boy didnt answer, but kept his hands working in the loose soil of a small bonsai tree suffering from lack of nutrients. Saint waited patiently, an idea already forming in his mind though he was too afraid to say it aloud. Finally, Aiden spoke
I need to eat.

Part Four: In the Rain
The sky was dark gray, cold and unforgiving throughout the day as the clouds began to boil to a firm black. By the end of school the sky had successfully split, pouring sheets as giggling students rushed to the buses with their coats hung over their heads. Saint watched through Mrs. Owenss window, reminding himself with a slight frown that hed have to walk home after serving his hours in detention.
He tapped the tip of his pencil against the worksheet he was supposed to be doing, his eyes growing heavy as the heat of a summer storm rolled in. Christopher just had to leave during the rainiest month of the year
Mrs. Owens glanced up from her papers, her eyes darting to the clock as she nodded curtly in gesture that detention was over. Saint stood quickly, dumping his books into his worn backpack and smiling at the teacher behind the desk before starting down the hall at a quick pace. Hed been coming home rather late the passed week and his m

Tired room but clean (avoid room one !)
Room was disappointing very tired, however it was clean.
radio from the kitchen below kept me awake as did the banging of the pans being washed until 11pm. Smoke coming into the room from the customers in the garden. Ok for one night but would not recommend any longer. The breakfast however was the best i've had. This Inn excels in food but sadly not for us the accommodation. Would not book again.

The Whyte Harte Hotel
One does not expect a 14th Century hotel to look like a modern hotel.
Yes, a lick of paint here and there would not go amiss but the, ambiance of the place, the friendly and very helpful staff is what we took away with us. The food was exceptional, well cooked and presented. The breakfast was enormous. A touch of old England and set in a beautiful village. It was a real privilege and pleasure to have stayed there.

Very good service, amazing food.
Breakfast was perfect, could not fault this at all. Room was clean although the carpet needed a hoover. Room in need of a little bit of TLC in regards to decorating, no shower door replaced with shower curtain, not enough sockets in room, struggled to dry hair, room was very hot and could not open the window. Beautiful old building in an iydllic setting. Fantastic food!

Hotel is old world style
Order my food and said I was in no rush.
The squid arrived but was like rubber and in some strange batter certainly not tempura. Just finish when the main was put in front of me, rabbit pie?!?!?. well the mash was like wallpaper paste the pie was some watery shredded meat mixture that could of even be chicken as it had no real flavour and the vegetables had brown bits on the ends. Vinegar used to cook pouched eggs for breakfast, have they not heard it's an old wife's tale to cook them this way. Hotel fine, food very poor.

Not too impressed with housekeeping or maintenance efforts
Beautiful very old pub serving delicious food.
All good at this place until you go upstairs to the bedrooms. Sadly they don't seem to be able to clean properly. Cobwebs and a shower so mouldy, I was fairly astonished. Plug sockets wobbly and not working... Not ideal either. Would I stay here again, probably not until they spend some money on those unloved rooms upstairs.

Characterful hotel, excellent value for money
A friendly, small hotel located in a village on the A25.
An old building, full of character, so if you prefer modern, homogenised, pasteurised chain hotels, this may not be for you. Good facilities in the room (tea making, flat screen TV, hair dryer), well equipped modern bathroom. No WiFi in the rooms, but freely available in the bar, which has an excellent restaurant - both popular with locals and visitors as well as residents. And all at a very good price, too.

"'I was taken aback at the maturity in both her vocals and songwriting…The production quality is superlative, the songs exceptionally well-written, especially the opening "Reminders" with the intuitive lyrics. "Dreaming In Crowds" is a gently flowing harmonic beauty with a kind of Carole King feel, without in any way sounding like the legendary singer-songwriter. Here's a young lady who's blossomed into a mighty fine singer-songwriter deserving of the widest possible recognition. I think it's time that she took the plunge and recorded a full album with similar quality songs and production as this … it would be a world-beater.'"

The people of Fall River, Massachusetts, fear me. Perhaps rightfully so. I remain a suspect in the brutal deaths of my father and his second wife despite the verdict of innocence at my trial. With our inheritance, my sister, Emma, and I have taken up residence in Maplecroft, a mansion near the sea and far from gossip and scrutiny. But it is not far enough from the affliction that possessed my parents. Their characters, their very souls, were consumed from within by something that left malevolent entities in their place. It originates from the ocean's depths, plaguing the populace with tides of nightmares and madness. This evil cannot hide from me. No matter what guise it assumes, I will be waiting for it. With an axe.
©2014 Cherie Priest (P)2014 Tantor
"Cherie Priest is supremely gifted and Maplecroft is a remarkable novel, simultaneously beautiful and grotesque. It is at once a dark historical fantasy with roots buried deep in real-life horror and a supernatural thriller mixing Victorian drama and Lovecraftian myth. You won't be able to put it down." ---Christopher Golden, author of Snowblind
"The lengthy build up is worth the mystery."
Yes. I think it will become a yearly treat for the Halloween season.
Lizzie - she has this practical side, complete loyalty, and that axe.
They imbued the storyline with emotions, wonder, anger, pride, lust, sisterly love, etc. By the way, GoodReads says the two readers are Roger Wayne and Meredith Mitchell. Which is it?
It came from the deep, finding humans easily manipulated. That is until it met Lizzie's axe.
Lizzie Borden and her older, disabled sister Emma live in Fall River, Massachusetts. A few years back, they went through trying times when their parents died in an unexpected and rather gruesome manner. Despite the trial and a verdict of innocent, Lizzie is still treated with suspicion by the townsfolk. Hence, Emma and Lizzie moved to a manor house, Maplecroft, on the outskirts of town. While their parents may have been the first to succumb to a madness that originates from the depths of the sea, they are not the last. Hence, the need for Lizzie's axe.
This tale was rich in character development and suspense. Indeed, I felt it shared a kinship with Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and Bram Stoker's Dracula. The tale opens slowly as one becomes acquainted with Lizzie and Emma. The story is told through a series of journal entries and personal letters, giving the narration a very personal note. With each letter, each journal entry, we got another small glimpse that something wasn't quite right. Emma, a renowned biologist (although she has to use a male pen name in this time period of late 1800s), studies the progression of the madness and ultimately the creatures themselves. Lizzie, having to take a more practical stand, has muscles gained from the need to swing an axe (for wood or defense), carry her disabled sister from room to room when she is ill, and the general running of a manor house. She doesn't understand the evil madness but she vows to end it.
As we delve deeper into the story, we become more aware of the connection to the ocean and the madness – the great need for the water, the avoidance of bright light, the heavy desire to venture to the seashore. This is where tiny tendrils of Lovecraftian horror start to entangle themselves into the plot. The lengthy build up is worth the mystery as we gain further knowledge via the Fall River doctor and his strange encounters with the afflicted.
The tale also has a simple romance on the side. Let me say that one of the main characters is homosexual, and it is no big deal. Sure, some of the characters have time period views, but those views don't permeate the story. It was very well done and so refreshing to see a main character, a full, well-rounded, character doing all these plot-oriented things, who just happens to also be gay.
I loved this book; didn't want to put it away. I thoroughly enjoyed the build up of suspense and the bioscience. I liked that the center of the mystery was so vast and not completely discernible by the characters. I had the pleasure of hearing Priest talk about this book and about how she wasn't too keen on writing a sequel. As an impresed reader, I am very glad to hear that there will indeed be a sequel. Thank you Ms. Priest!
The Narration: The narration was also excellent. Having two readers to pass back and forth the male and female parts brought out the richness of the personal letters and journal entries. The regional accents came through clearly. Both Mitchell and Wayne imbued the characters with a range of emotions, as the story demanded.
""I have to finish this book" should be valid"
I know it is a good book when I get to work and have 23 minutes left and actually *think* about going in late so that I can sit in my car and finish it.
Good Book - great concept!
Love the mixing of two genres, even though there were a couple of slow spots, cannot help but give this 5 stars. Really enjoy Cherie Priest's books, and this one did not disappoint. Hoping there is a sequel in fact, or an extension of some of the characters in another book.
"Incredible take on the Cthulhu mythos"
Cherie Priest does an outstanding job of making the reader feel for her characters. Maplecroft is full of tension and a 10 on the creepy scale.
"Lizzie and her trusty Ax.."
Yes for sure
I would love to know more. To ask all the questions that were not answered in the book.
"There it was. Yes! I grabbed my ax" Lizzie L Borden.
You thought you knew everything there was to know about Lizzie Borden and her ax.....
You were wrong.
Very very wrong!!
This was my first Cherie Priest novell and the first in her new Borden Dispatches series. There was so much going on in this story are just a few points.
How the story is written: The story is told by multiple points of view: Lizzie Borden, Emma Borden, Nance O'Neil, Dr. Owen Seabury, Professor Phillip Zollicoffer. Each point of view was told to us by their journal entries and the current events of the day, the hour, the minute. It was a very interesting way to write a story. I will say that listening to it was a tad bit confusing at first trying to figure out what was going on and to keep track of dates.
Lizzie Borden: Is not what she seems or maybe in a way she is. Lizzie knows something stirs in the dark, something dark, dangerous and very very deadly. An interesting note about Lizzie, she has a very unconventional relationship with Nance O'Neil (well unconventional for the time period). I loved Lizzie and Nance's relationship.
Emma Borden: While a loyal sister did get on my nerves as the story went on.
The Evil: Here is where I was left with more questions then answers. I am so confused as to what it was. How it came to be. Is it gone? So many questions.
Listened on Audio: This book was narrated by two people. While the narrators were good, at time the voice tended to run together. Emma and Lizzie sounded a lot a like. Dr. Seabury & Professor Zollicoffer sounded similar. But all in all I enjoyed the narrators.
I can say that I am not normally a fan of non-HEA books but I found myself sucked into the world of Maplecroft. I was sucked into the mystery of Fall River. Sucked into Lizzie Borden's turmoil in trying to keep everyone safe. I can not wait to see what is next for Lizzie and Fall River.
If you are a fan of Urban Fantasy/Mystery genre you really should pick up a copy of Maplecroft.
I received a complimentary copy of this audiobook from Tantor Media in exchange for an honest review. This review is my own opinion and not a paid review.
I like mysteries (particularly British ones, historical fiction and nonfiction, science fiction and fantasy.
"Good Book Could Have Used Better Narrators"
If you know anything about the life of Lisbet Borden after the conclusion of her famous trial, forget it. The chronology of events in this book (set in 1894) is about 10 years off and, yes, that really bugged me. However the events as reimagined by Cherie Priest including Lovecraft's Cthulu Mythos in part, fit well into the overall facts..
Maplecroft is the name of the house that Lisbet and Emma Borden moved to after the younger sister was acquitted of the murder of their father and step-mother. It is a fact that they both were very concerned about their personal safety. There's nothing really startling in this novel although Priest does provide some descriptive details. There is very good use made of Lizzy Borden's axe.
I do regret having listened to this on audio though instead of reading it. I don't think that Johanna Parker's voice (which worked very well in my opinion in her reading of the Sookie Stackhouse books) was particularly affective in this book. Her accent sounded "off" for the time and place. Roger Wayne's voice also seemed a little too light and young for the characters he was reading. Some more character in his voice would have been improved things a great deal, especially in reading the parts attributed to the 60ish year old Dr Seabury.
If you are inclined that way and know a bit about the Weird Tales background, the book does provide some fun hunt-the-reference moments.
"Interesting mash up and a good listen"
The mash up of Lizzie Borden and a Lovecraftian sea monster was a real treat. The author appears to have positioned Lizzie in the a superhero / monster hunter role set for continuing adventures. I would like to read another LB adventure, I have no clue if that is in the works or not.
The characters physical exhaustion is an ongoing theme but I think this could have been explored with a little more variety.
The narration was decent. Roger Wayne seems to start strong with a voice but it tends to fade after a few moments. Not overly distracting but I did notice it.
"Wooden narrative"
This book had great potential but the narrative just didn't work for me. Love the story of an ax wielding, lesbian, action heroine in Lizzie Borden but the narrative took way to long to develop. The end was great but getting there was painful.
"Fast-paced but lacking depth"
Like the last book I read by Cherie Priest, Boneshaker, the plot was interesting and the action hot enough to keep me reading. However, the characters, like last time, were pretty flat.
She also went overboard with trying to make it sound like turn-of-the-century prose. It was overkill!
Still, worth the read for the exciting action and gruesome monsters.

Day 58 - Goodbye US-101, Hello Highway 1!
... CA-1S just followed the coastline. Sometimes way up in the air, other times down at sea level, but lots of times with a steep cliff drop to the ocean below. We stopped at all the Scenic Vista stops, and at one of them, the cliff had given way and taken some of the railing with it down to the beach below. The scenery was breathtaking when the fog was clear enough to see. But it was a little chilly at 63 degrees.
We made a quick stop ...

Some of it was almost dark as night under the thick canopy of the trees that surrounded the road, and when there was a break in artificial nighttime, it would open up to a beautiful meadow that overlooked the entire rest of the mountains.
Then, disaster struck.

What my parents generation did to Japanese Americans was not justifiable. For you to bring that up as some sort of justification or example of shared values shows that you do not share values with modern Americans. The Japanese Americans were loyal citizens of the USA, victims of hysteria and paranoia. And, those who served from the camps in the 442 distinguished themselves beyond any other group except perhaps the Tuskegee Airmen. They were American citizens with American rights taken.

Short Term Commitment – Long Term Benefits: Three Study-Abroad Options for Community College Students
Updated September 15, 2015
While study abroad has long been considered an option only for students at four-year colleges and universities, there are actually many options for community college students who would like to experience studying in another country.
Recently, a measure passed that allows community colleges in California to offer 4 year degrees. Until now such offerings have been the sole province of other institutions. Now, the game has changed.
Air traffic controllers enjoy secure, interesting work. Earning a degree in ATC at a community college is an excellent first step to securing a job.

Recent St. Martin (St Maarten) reviews
"This was our third time at Aquazen in less than three years (family of 5 with children ages 11, 8, and 5). We had again a great time. We like the house layout and modern furnishings (you can tell that Christian's wife is a designer) and its location on the water. There are little things that make this house special. Our kids love sleeping in the loft, we play games on the deck outside with beautiful views of the bay, my wife and I enjoy nespresso coffee machine for our morning dose of caffeine, Philippe is always willing to help, and I enjoy talking to Christian, the owner, when he comes to visit. The house is conveniently located with an easy access to stores, Orient beach and Grand Case (my favorite restaurant destination). It is amazing that such a small town can offer so many great culinary destinations. Unlike our last trip, this time wind was not too strong and we were able to kayak to Pinel island every day. We also had fun practicing on paddle board. For us beginners, it is great that the bay is protected and has almost no waves. Visiting St. Martin over New Year and staying at Aquazen has become a tradition for us. We are already looking forward to our next year's trip back"Guest: Jozef K.

"We had a fabulous stay at the Queen Penthouse for 18 days during our vacation in June & July, 2015. Alan the property manager was a pleasure to work with, he answered every question I had, both before and during our stay. To say that this penthouse is huge is somewhat of an understatement, plenty of room for everyone to sprawl out and relax wherever they preferred. The first floor has a huge living area, half bath, dining area, utility room with both washer and dryer, and a kitchen with everything required to prepare meals. There are also two bedrooms (we did not rent them or have any access to them) on this floor. We did have use of the 3 bedrooms on the top floor. The master bedroom has a huge walk-in closet that you pass through in order to get to the master bath. The master bath consists of a toilet, bidet, two vanities, whirlpool and shower. The other two bedrooms shared a bath with a toilet, large sink with 2 faucets and walk in shower. There was also a smaller living area with a TV. Again, plenty of space everywhere. Both floors have balconies that are above Cupecoy beach with fabulous views and plenty of outdoor furniture. The second floor also has a balcony on the lagoon side that can be accessed from the master bath and one of the second bedrooms. We found the location to be perfect, situated on the Dutch side, we were able to get anywhere on the island under 35 minutes. A two minute drive will get you to Maho Village where there are some wonderful restaurants and shopping. Heading the other way is a small nice grocery store and also the French side of the island – again, both about 2 minutes away. Please be aware that apparently during this time of the year (summer) – the sand at Cupecoy beach may or may not be there. For the first week, there was not much sand and then some appeared, almost overnight. This really was not a big deal for us as Maho Beach is just a short walk from The Cliffs and one of our other favorite beaches - Baie Rouge was a 5 minute drive away. I highly recommend that if you are going to St. Martin and this penthouse is within your budget – you should consider staying at the Queen Penthouse. If we return to the island, it will be our first choice of accommodations."Guest: Dennis H. Date of Stay: June 2015 Review Submitted: September 4, 2015View listing
"C'etait vraiment parfait, avec une vue extraordinaire. We had a wonderfully relaxing visit and enjoyed cooking in the very well-equipped kitchen. We've already booked our return visit in a couple of months!! A few things to be aware of: - It's on the top floor, so you need to be able to climb a lot of stairs - The internet is manageable, but not quite fast enough to work remotely - The building is a little run down, but the condo itself is amazing Martine and her husband are both so helpful and friendly!!"Guest: Jennifer B.

"If you like spent the holidays in family,wiht friends.. the villa Be is the place to BE ! Ideal, with many space, very well decorated, a magnificent terrase and view on the sea.

The barn is located about half a mile from the peaceful village of Rhulen in Edw valley. Rhulen consists of six cottages and its well know 13th century church of St David which is thought to be one of the earliest churches built in Radnorshire.
Rhulen is a small hamlet nestling in the rolling hills of Radnorshire countryside. Golf and fishing nearby and glorious walks from the doorstep. The Immediate area is full of attractive walks and footpaths with excellent public access, that cross heather and grouse moors and ancient drover's roads. You may even stumble across a heard or two of wild ponies.
The winding lanes around Rhulen are delightful for driving and cycling.

"Great spacious secluded converted barn."
We spent a lovely 5 days at Cwmpiban Barn over the Easter break. We were 2 families of four with children aged 10,9,8 and 7 and there was more than enough room for us all. Our boys loved being able to roam the fields surrounding the barn and we really felty like we were getting away from it all. Everything we needed was at the cottage and we got a very warm welcome from the owner who was very laid back. A car is essential though and the nearest shops are a good 20 minute drive away. There is lots of walks starting from the barn and we did a very enjoyable walk to a friendly pub in Aberedw (about 5 miles away). We will return to Cwmpiban Barn and would absolutely recommend it if you are happy to stay out in the coutryside away from it all!

Dads Who Do Dishes Raise More Ambitious Daughters
If you ever needed ammo in the war to get your spouse helping out more around the house, share this new study published in Psychological Science, "The Second Shift Reflected in the Second Generation: Do Parents' Gender Roles at Home Predict Children's Aspirations?"
In the May 2014 study, recently previewed in the New York Magazine story "Dads Who Do Dishes Raise More Ambitious Daughters," researchers from the University of British Columbia found that it was a partnership approach to domestic chores that had a greater impact on the future aspirations of children — especially daughters — more so than their parents' encouragement and expressed beliefs about gender equality in the workplace.
"Data from 326 children aged 7 to 13 revealed that mothers' explicit gender role beliefs about domestic roles predicted those same beliefs held by their children. Importantly, when fathers enacted or espoused a more egalitarian distribution of household labor, their daughters in particular expressed a greater interest in working outside the home and having a less stereotypic occupation. Fathers' implicit gender role associations also uniquely predicted daughters' (but not sons') occupational preferences. Findings suggest that a more balanced division of household labor among parents might promote greater workforce equality in future generations."

There's a name not often mentioned as the catalyst for Brad Keselowski, 2012 NASCAR Sprint Cup champion.

NASCAR, Bowyer, Gordon Gone Wild… The "New Normal?" What Next?
In one corner, you had Jeff Gordon, a four-time champion who's more likely to be found watching _The Wiggles_ than throwing a punch piling into Clint Bowyer's car like Triple H attempting a suplex. The objective clearly was not just to wreck but destroy, sparking an embarrassing, full-scale brawl involving everyone from opposing jackmans to Team Vice-Presidents. NASCAR will be reduced to YouTube fodder this Monday, for everything from Clint Bowyer's "beer man's" sprint to try and chop Gordon's head off, to the herd of police that had to guide Gordon from the racetrack in order to keep him physically intact, to the "romper room"-style antics of uncontrolled fighting that looked like a bunch of WWE dropouts trying to audition off a bad script. It was a man who's spent the last 20 years as the best driver of his generation making a two-second call that briefly made him the dumbest. Read More »
Making Mincemeat Out Of Someone Else's Mistake: How Johnson Keeps Doing It
Sunday's final laps at Texas, after the 400 miles of throw-up preceding it, felt like a heavyweight throw-down. Brad Keselowski, the Sprint Cup challenger up front spent each lap landing frantic punches, unafraid to give the champion inside the No. 48 a few uppercuts to his unyielding confidence. Keselowski's crew chief, Paul Wolfe, pulled the best Chad Knaus impression possible by going against the grain with a two-tire strategy, earning them track position with a car capable of a Five-Time TKO. Mentally, Keselowski jumped inside Johnson's head, accelerating early on a restart and then physically slamming the No. 2 Dodge into the Lowe's Chevrolet, shattering sheet metal while making it clear that when both run side-by-side, a title on the line all bets are off. For Johnson, who's won five championships without playing the contact game, it's a world of uncontrolled aggression where he is competent but not comfortable. Read More »
The Cracks Behind The Facade Of A Fantastic Finish
Taking the final 50 laps, only into account it's hard to view Sunday's Sprint Cup show at Texas as anything other than a positive for NASCAR. Down the stretch, during a series of final restarts the two men fighting for the championship were side-by-side, exchanging sheet metal and clearly the two fastest cars. You had Kyle Busch, one of the sport's most aggressive and controversial drivers lurking third and ready to poke his nose in at any time. The action stepped up considerably, making the final 45 minutes a rare moment of 2012 NASCAR "can't miss" racing television. Read More »
Ten Years Is All It Takes
So I've been having one of those waxing nostalgic types of weeks. You know, the ones where you sit and take stock of where you are, where you've been, and where you've going; a look at history is always healthy when you're trying to plan out your future. It's the type of moment that hits most stock car folk in the ninth month of a grueling season, the November ending to a 36-race marathon that always seems to have fans, drivers, everyone involved ready to drop heading to the finish line. (A topic for another day.) Read More »
Joe Gibbs' Title House Of Horrors
20 points down in the title Chase, entering Sunday Martinsville for Denny Hamlin was pivotal. At a place where he'd won four times, more than at any Cup track on the schedule, a fifth would put him back in the throes of title contention. With rival Jimmie Johnson just as successful, the race was a clear case of make-or-break. So Hamlin heaved a deep breath, took the green and followed the path of so many Joe Gibbs Chase contenders before him. Read More »
Perception Creates An Imperfect Reality: Sixth Place vs. Title No. 6
Three races left in the Sprint Cup season. Two drivers left in Chase contention. And one big problem for NASCAR: a title battle fans believe might be over. Make no mistake; Brad Keselowski is doing everything possible to change that. The Miller Lite Miracle was something special at Martinsville, Kes turning a 32nd-place starting spot into a sixth-place finish, one for the moral victory column. How exceptional was that for NASCAR's King of the Twitterverse (and perhaps a reconnection to relevancy)? In five previous starts at the paperclip, @Keselowski's best finish was ninth. Until a last-ditch effort to win, staying out during the race's penultimate caution, the driver of the No. 2 Dodge had led a grand total of two laps at NASCAR's shortest track. Read More »
NASCAR's Hidden Gem… For How Much Longer?
There's a mystery driver these days putting up big time numbers – just without the big time accolades to go with it. He has six victories in the last three years, more than Matt Kenseth, Carl Edwards, or Kurt Busch on the Cup Series level. During that span, his 53 top-10 finishes collected are greater than all but three drivers: Edwards, Jimmie Johnson, and Kevin Harvick. It's a collection of stats made more impressive by the fact that A) he's switched teams the last two years and B) he's never been the number one driver in any organization he's been a part of. When are we going to give Clint Bowyer the credit he's due? Read More »

Critic Reviews for Truman
All Critics (8) | Fresh (7) | Rotten (1) | DVD (3)
Superb production with memorable Sinise performance in title role.
An excellent biopic anchored by a marvelous job by Sinise.
Its Cliffs Notes approach to the source biography gets a big boost from star Gary Sinise.
Audience Reviews for Truman
Truman succeeds at being a comprehensive, well acted, informative, and generally well written biopic. Undoubtedly the portrayal of Truman was too charitable, but the level of humanity that Gary Sinise was able to inject really carried the film throughout. I would have liked to see the more aggressive side of Truman, and some of his internal political battles with his own party, but for its running time, Truman manages to cover a lot of ground, and does so in a largely effective way.
