House Of Dreams
Penguin, Sep 4, 2007 - Fiction - 528 pages
In the tiny hamlet of Aswat, far to the south of the royal capital, a beautiful young girl wants more than the meagre prospects her village offers. Determined and resourceful, she is quick to leap upon an opportunity when the great seer Hui, who is also physician to Pharaoh, visits Aswat to commune with its god, Wepwawet.
Taken under Hui's wing to become a healer, she has no idea of his real plans for her—plans that will bring her close to Pharaoh as his favourite concubine, but will ultimately enmesh her in court intrigue of the most dangerous kind.
House of Dreams is a powerful story of passion and jealousy, rich with the details of Ancient Egyptian life.

What Is The Grave Of Saint Oran?
This short stopmotion animation is a twisted philosophical tale of two saints, a murder, and the dark history behind the chapel on the island of Iona. Narrated by master storyteller Neil Gaiman, it is based on his poem 'In Relig Odhrain', and will be brought to life with beautifully illustrated paper cutouts meticulously hand animated frame by frame. We believe in the tactile magic that happens when real light hits actual paper, so the whole film will be shot in camera with minimal digital interference.
We are running a kickstarter campaign to raise the funds needed to start full production. Click through to take a look at our pitch video, beautiful rewards, and even more art from the film.
"He will touch you, he will taste you, he will leave his words inside you - god is not what you imagine, nor is hell, and nor is heaven."
- FROM 'IN RELIG ODHRAIN' by NEIL GAIMAN
Updates from the Studio
Follow our progress in the studio as we work on creating the film.
shooting kickstarter video
Through happy circumstance, our amazing artist Ellen Barkin visited New York recently and we all got to hang out in person for the first time! We took the opportunity to shoot our kickstarter video…
the first cuts
It feels good to have a blade between my fingers again. I've been taking Ellen's character designs and doing some test cuts to start getting a feel for how they will translate…
finding our characters
It makes me inordinately happy to see the empty white wall's of my new studio in Bushwick starting to fill up with Ellen's beautiful art. It's a special magic…
Behind every film is a crew of talented people, and this one is no exception. To make this animation, we have pulled together a crack team of incredibly talented individuals from around the world:
- Director Jim Batt
- Writer Neil Gaiman
- Artist Ellen Barkin
- Composer Jherek Bischoff
- Producer Josie Hess
The Grave Of Saint Oran is a short stopmotion animation based on the poem 'In Relig Odhrain' by Neil Gaiman. The characters & world will be designed by illustrator Ellen Barkin Söderholm, then these designs will be turned into paper cutout puppets & sets, ready to be animated frame by frame.
It is a strange story, full of brooding atmosphere and metaphysical horror, and we intend to build on that mood…
The poem 'In Relig Odhrain' was published in a recent collection of Neil Gaiman's short stories called 'Trigger Warning'. It tells the tale of two saints who land on the island of Iona, and attempt to build a chapel there.
But things don't go smoothly and the ritual murder of one saint by the other begins a chain of events that brings into question everything they believe…
"…he is going to make a glorious, magical, and peculiar, animated film." – Neil Gaiman

Product Description
Praise for 'High Tide': 'If you are among those who think climate change is an uncertain, remote issue over which scientists are unsure, politicians talk endlessly to little effect, and mere individuals have no power at all, this book may be for you.' Guardian 'There will be many more books like 'High Tide', but this will be remembered as the first!it'll be the one with the original vision!Not unworthy of comparison with Orwell and certainly the breaker of new ground.' Independent 'Mark Lynas!has time-travelled into our terrifying collective future!Go with him on this breathtaking, beautifully told journey!I promise that you will come back!determined to alter the course of history.' Naomi Klein, author of 'No Logo' 'Clear, lucid and informative.' New Statesman 'A thoroughly engaging and well-researched book.' Times Literary Supplement
About the Author
Mark Lynas is an activist, journalist and traveller. He was editor of the website www.oneworld.net and has made many appearances in the press and TV as a commentator on environmental issues. He also throws custard pies at lunatics who pronounce global warming a fantasy. He is the author of 'High Tide: News from a Warming World'. He lives in Oxford.

Using the data supplied by his extensive resources, Lynas depicts global and regional changes in environment due to increase over time. His temperature range selection is driven by the reports of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The IPCC's reports indicate a six degree Celsius increase over the next century. Integrating the scientific research on the biosphere, IPCC is able to review existing and past conditions and those likely to ensue in the future. Lynas synthesizes the reports to present a picture of conditions likely with each degree of heat will lead to over time. The first degree is typified by examples of drought. The Great Plains of the US trans-Mississippi is already showing signs of that dry-out. The author explains that drought in one place may be off-set by rainstorms elsewhere. Heat over land desiccates, but heat over water increases evaporation leading to greater precipitation. Even with but a single step up in temperature, the rains may be intense in some locales. This seems to be occurring already, with ravaging storms displacing many refugees. Katrina is almost certainly an example of the new environment.Read more ›
In the United States, fluid inclusion data from ice core are commonly used, but I suspect the data are very unreliable. Researchers at UofT never used secondary inclusions (bubbles on healed fractures) for sphalerite geothermometry, and never even bothered with calcite fluid inclusions, assuming them worthless because of the weakness of calcite. Strictly speaking, determining whether an inclusion is primary is not possible. It is possible, however, to determine whether an inclusion is secondary, but not the other way around. Many secondary inclusions are unrecognised until set in context where they cannot fit thermodynamically and then they are discarded.
Ice is an open system simply because it expands as it freezes. Think of it this way. Ice will vacuum ambient air into its structure as it crystallizes. The trapped gasses then reorganise into bubbles. Moreover, the transition from firn to ice can take hundreds to thousands of years on any particular glacier. In the top transparent to translucent tens of metres, the firn freezes and thaws an unknowable number of times before conditions obtain to freeze it for the long term as crystalline ice.
The isotopes used for temperature determinations are heavy isotopes of oxygen and carbon; in a closed system, they proxy for temperature. In an open system, the light isotopes differentially leave the system and the heavies concentrate. In the ice core scientific papers I have from Lonnie T.Read more ›

Denialism invites devastation on a scale last seen during the Permian-Triassic (P-Tr) extinction event, and business or politics as usual will impose surrogate suicide on our children and grandchildren. Degree by degree "Six Degrees" explains the mechanisms behind global warming and the direct consequences of our actions (or inactions). From sophisticated and increasingly refined computer models, to the latest geological and paleontological evidence, Lynas compellingly argues that anthropomorphic climate change is a new and unprecedented challenge verging on calamity, not a routine and recurrent phenomenon due to cyclical natural causes.
From bleached and dying tropical coral reefs to polar bears that will melt into history along with the glaciers and ice flows they called home, the future is dire unless immediate, but achievable steps are taken. Some species may survive by migrating, but most will have nowhere to migrate to. Small changes result in sizeable impacts - a mere 3° C increase will turn the American Midwest, the world's breadbasket, and the Amazon Basin which supplies 20% of earth's fresh water, into arid wasteland.
Deluge or desertification will erase entire countries from the map and displace massive populations, as former citizens become stateless refugees. New York, London, Bombay, and Shanghai could be lost to the sea. Unless we redesign our energy extravagant carbon culture in less than a decade, reversion to pre-industrial civilization, or even a second stone age, may be our inevitable legacy.
At 1° C the American West, from California to the Great Plains could suffer a mega-drought lasting decades or centuries - devastating agriculture and evicting inhabitants on a scale far larger then the 1930s dustbowl. Overexploited aquifers will fail as powerful dust and sandstorms engulf entire states. Although more southerly parts of the United States are expected to get wetter as the North American monsoon intensifies, residents may not welcome an influx of several million eco-refugees. Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and Australia will face similar challenges.
Plus 2° C will bring thirst to parched cities across China. Facing a chronic shortage of water, China won't struggle to develop a more affluent lifestyle; it will fight to feed itself. Warmer seas will continue - less efficiency - to absorb additional greenhouse gas emissions, radically altering the interlocking and exquisitely balanced ecosystems that cover 70 % of the globe. At least half the carbon dioxide released by airliners, air conditioners, or anything else ends up in the sea - a naturally alkaline environment that allows diverse and vital organisms to build calcium carbonate shells.
Human activities have already reduced oceanic alkalinity by 0.1 pH units. In less than 100 years the pH of the oceans could drop by half a unit from its natural 8.2 to about 7.7 - a change that will severely impact plankton - the foundation of coastal or deep water food chains. Although individually tiny (only a few thousandths of a millimeter across), photosynthesizing plankton like coccolithopores are arguably the most important plant resource on earth. They comprise at least half the biosphere's entire primary production - equivalent to all land plants combined. When scientists simulated anticipated future pH levels by pumping dissolved carbon dioxide into a Norwegian fjord, they watched in dismay as coccolithopore structures corroded and then disintegrated altogether.
Gourmets will morn the loss of mussels, scallops and oysters, shellfish vitally important as economic resources and constituents of coastal ecosystems worldwide, as they loose their ability to build strong shells by the century's end - and will dissolve altogether if atmospheric carbon dioxide levels reach 1,800 ppm. Gastric distress of a different sort will follow as fisheries collapse and dependent populations face famine. Walk on a coral reef in 2090 and it could crumble beneath your feet. The haphazard experiment we are conducting on the world's oceans is insanely irresponsible.
Europe will experience temperatures endemic to North Africa today by 2040 and the consequent death toll during searing summer heat waves may reach into the hundreds of thousands. Mediterranean sunburn will take on an entirely new connotation in a 2° C world.
Adding 3° C will see a return to Pliocene norms (5.3 to 1.8 MYA) - when the Transantarctic Mountains were covered with beech trees, admittedly stunted by harsh conditions, but thriving. Pine trees will return to regions hundreds of miles north of today's artic tree line, and global sea levels will rise 25 meters (27.34 yards). Other harbingers include a persistent super El Nino, desiccation of the Amazon and Australia, hyper-hurricanes (Houston, we have a problem), an ice-free arctic, dry Indus and Colorado rivers, and the inundation of New York City.
Growing food in this hotspot habitat will prove increasingly problematic since rice, wheat, and maize yields decline by 10% for every 1° C temperature increase over 30° C. Over 40° C yields are reduced to zero. Starvation will replace obesity as an epidemic, and genetically modified organisms (GMOs) will be our only alternative.
An additional 4° C will see the end of the Nile and Egyptian civilization; although Alexandria will be flooded as Antarctic ice melts raise global sea levels by 50 meters (164.1 feet). If both major Antarctic ice sheets destabilize sea levels could rise by a meter or so every 20 years - far outside humanity's adaptive capacity. Global warming of this magnitude would eventually denude the entire planet of ice for the first time in nearly 40 million years.
With 5° C of global warming a new planet, unrecognizable and indifferent to the needs of humanity arrives. Rain forests have burned up and rapidly rising sea levels, after inundating coastal cities, are beginning to penetrate far inland into continental interiors. Humanity will be confined to precarious habitability zones delineated by the twin scourges of drought and flood. At the highest latitudes Siberian, Canadian, and Alaskan rivers will experience dramatically increased flows due to torrential rain. A resurgent East Asian monsoon will dump nearly a third more water in the Yangtze, nearly 20% more in the Huang He (Yellow River), and the United Kingdom will experience severe winter flooding as reset Atlantic weather patterns lash Britain, Scotland and Ireland with Noachian (for lack of a better term) ferocity.
Globally, our planet will reprise conditions last experienced during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM). Nearly every academic PETM study published in recent years notes that this epoch presages what anthropogenic global warming might have in store. Although the total carbon dioxide input into the atmosphere 55 MYA exceeded our best efforts to date - with carbon dioxide levels of more than 1,000 ppm persisting into the early Eocene - the rate of greenhouse gas addition is actually faster in the early Anthropocene (today) than during the PETM event.
Disruption on this scale could unleash massive amounts of methane hydrates (methane is an even more potent greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide), resulting in runaway global warming. Humans would watch powerlessly as their planet began to emulate Venus. How likely is this scenario? A recent study by methane hydrate experts, Bruce Buffet and David Archer, suggests that the store of hydrates on the ocean floor would decrease by 85% in response to just three degrees of warming - although they don't say how long this shift might take. Is that shiny new SUV or humongous Hummer really worth the risk to your children and grandchildren?
In some ways, a return to Eocene norms seems Edenic. Lush forests grew at the poles, temperate zones became subtropical, and fascinating species spread across the globe - but the PETM took place over approximately 10,000 years, giving plants and animals time to migrate and adapt to new circumstances. We don't have 100 centuries - only decades - a pace of warming far too rapid for meaningful adaptation by natural ecosystems or human civilization. Humanity will become an endangered species.
Channeling Dante as our guide to a 6° C increase is warranted as earth descends into the Sixth Circle of Hell. Welcome to 'Cretaceous Park' (144 - 65 MYA) without the tourist attractions as a best-case scenario, or the Permian-Triassic (P-Tr) extinction event (251 MYA, also known as the Great Dying) - when life itself nearly died - as the worst-case outcome. Peter Ward's superb Under a Green Sky: Global Warming, the Mass Extinctions of the Past, and What They Can Tell Us About Our Future (reviewed separately, an excellent companion book) documents how rampant greenhouse warming triggered anoxic oceans to release massive amounts of poisonous hydrogen sulfide (rotten egg gas) into the atmosphere. Oxygen levels plunged to 15% (contemporary levels are 21%) and many organisms (terrestrial and oceanic) literally suffocated.
Lynas points out that we can still choose our future - but unless we act to reduce greenhouse gas emissions within just a few years our destiny will be chosen, and earthly inferno will become inevitable as carbon cycle feedbacks and climate forcings kick in one after another. We have the technology, but do we have the collective will?
"Six Degrees" is a tour de force that deserves to be widely read and acted upon. Until politicians act, take action. Lynas has also published The Carbon Calculator, which outlines easy ways to reduce your carbon footprint, before we become just another failed species marked by fossilized tracks on the margins of a long evaporated lake.
Other excellent books on global warming include Storm World: Hurricanes, Politics, and the Battle Over Global Warming by Chris Mooney, With Speed and Violence: Why Scientists Fear Tipping Points in Climate Change by Fred Pearce, and Field Notes from a Catastrophe: Man, Nature, and Climate Change by Elizabeth Kolbert.
I was torn between assigning this book four stars or five. While there's nothing about this book I don't like, I didn't want to be influenced by my own conviction of the overriding importance of this topic for all of us, and have tried to grade the book purely on the basis of my reaction to it as a book.
But the topic is urgent and important, and Mark Lynas has treated it effectively and with authority. His approach was to review all the published scientific literature he could find on climate modeling and paleoclimatology. His sources therefore consist exclusively of peer-reviewed scientific papers: no pop-science books, interviews, or mass-market magazine articles. He created a database of articles and organized them into categories according to the amount of warming they discussed: 1 degree Celsius, 2 degrees Celsius, and so on up to 6 degrees.
The book builds up a picture of the heating Earth, each chapter notching the average temperature one degree higher. At 1 degree, for example, Lynas discusses the likely desertification of the American West. The great plains ranging east of the Rockies north to Saskatchewan are actually an ancient dune-field covered with a thin layer of soil held in place by plants. Climate models show its likely reversion to a more drought-stricken regime that has also existed in the ancient past. The result will be the death of the plants, and blowing away of the topsoil--just as happened with the Dust Bowl in Oklahoma in the 1930s. This new Dust Bowl will be much larger and more enduring--and where will all the people go?
That's only one heading in the 1-degree chapter; there are nine more, including the slowing or stopping of the Gulf Stream, the melting of the Arctic icecap, and the die-off of coral reefs. Then it's on to chapter 2, with 11 headings of its own. The effects he looks at are diverse, sometimes smaller, such as the extinctions of individual species, but mostly much larger, such as the severe droughts and mass migrations we can expect when the world's mountain glaciers--source of much of our drinking-water--finally disappear, as they are rapidly doing right now.
By the time we get to 6 degrees, the point is abundantly clear: we must not let this happen. At that point our planet will be ice-free, largely desert, and whipped by "hypercanes" vastly more powerful than today's strongest storms. In Lynas's personal opinion, the human species will likely survive, but it will be a small remnant, and one of only a few survivors of this great extinction event.
Still relatively buried in the scientific literature are discussions of positive-feedback loops that may--indeed likely will--lie ahead: mechanisms that will accelerate warming beyond our ability to stop or control it. One such is the melting of tundra permafrost, which will likely release methane in large quantities, a greenhouse gas 20 times more potent than CO2. Another is the awesome storehouse of methane as hydrates on the continental shelves, which may be released as the oceans warm.
Based on his survey, Lynas finds that our window of opportunity to head off the worst of it is very small indeed. We have almost certainly already crossed the threshold of 2 degrees of global warming, so the first two chapters are a snapshot of how our world will look just a few years from now. Indeed, the current droughts in Atlanta, California, Portugal, Australia, and elsewhere are themselves the manifestation of the process unfolding.
Lynas sums up with a discussion of what's stopping us from acting more vigorously, as well a look at the magnitude of the task. It makes for mighty sobering reading.
His prose is vigorous, vivid, and confident. Lynas has studied the climate for years, and visited remote spots of the globe. To be sure, I found the message depressing. It's all the scarier because it's not hysterical--it's lifted right out of peer-reviewed papers. But it has woken me from my own torpor of denial. Whatever decisions we each make, we should be informed. And this book provides an especially crucial kind of information.
The disappearance of arctic summer ice, the eventual flooding of coastal communities from sea level rise, the prospects of widespread droughts including the western USA, are all exptremely disturbing ideas held by a majority of climatologists.
This is a good summary of where we are with climate science right now, as Lynas bases his book on up to date searching of the science literature. The only outdated thing I could find was his failure to mention the political defeat of the Howard government in Australia partly due to public concern there about drought caused by climate change. Climate science has advanced greatly in the past few years, so do not base your views on something five years old!
My only criticism of this book is that the structure Lynas imposes is barely able to handle the massive amount of material. But I still rate it a firm four stars because of the timeliness and breadth of coverage. Too many of us are ill informed on this topic in an election year that may determine our approach to the problem for the next eight years. Too many of us fail to accept the basic concept explored by Lynas- that climate change is cumulative. Too many of us murmur smugly that we are not going to devote any energy or money to a problem that will kick in mostly after we die of old age.
Do you plan to have grandkids? I do. Read this.
The IPCC says that in the 21st century global warming could bring temperatures anywhere from 1 to 6 degrees hotter. Lynas uses peer-reviewed scientific literature to show what these temperature rises could mean. In 6 chapters he outlines 6 degrees. Once temps get past 2 or 3 degrees, like a wild fire burning out of control, the planet could continue to heat up no matter we do because nature starts releasing massive stores of CO2 from burning forests, melting tundra, warming oceans etc..
This is the first comprehensive attempt I have seen that outlines what a warmer world could be like, relying entirely on the most recent peer reviewed scientific literature. No one can predict the future with 100% accuracy, these are not things that will happen exactly as describes, but they have already happened in the past when temperatures reached this high, therefore there is a percentage-possibility of them happening again in similar ways - not something to be discounted - in the same way we buy fire insurance or flood insurance, even if the chance of a fire or flood is very small, we know from history they do happen.
Lynas' book is one part in the learning curve of global warming, it could be read in conjunction with a couple other books out of England recently, such as George Monbiot's Heat: How to Stop the Planet from Burning, which offers practical solutions to keep temps below 2 or 3 degrees, and With Speed and Violence: Why Scientists Fear Tipping Points in Climate Change, which discusses the nature of runaway tipping points and why a rise above 2 or 3 degrees is so potentially dangerous.
See also the National Geographic documentary of the same name based on the book.
Most of the public likes things in black and white: short sound/video bites are preferred to longer articles with whys and wherefores and maybes. "An Inconvenient Truth", as Al Gore called it. The book talks about a large number of models: some of these contradict each other in some of the details, but most seem to agree on the basics. The book makes the point that fixes to global warming will be painful, and too much of the public would rather believe one of the small minority of scientists or perhaps a large majority of politicians who say that there is not sufficient evidence and we need to study things longer. All of this reminds me of my younger days in the late 1950s when scientists started warning about smoking and cancer. The tobacco industry trotted out scientists of their own and planted news stories deriding the notion. Some of these news articles said "The evidence is only statistical", and we're hearing that same argument nowadays. When the book shows how a glacier melting has caused a rise in ocean levels of 3 millimeters, we should worry--but we don't.
You'll read a lot about "feedback" in the book--polar ice, for example, reflects sunlight, but as the ice melts, the open ocean absorbs that same sunlight and warms even further. There are tipping points, and they may be irreversible. You'll read a lot about the effect of climate changes on various parts of the world--flora, fauna, food crops, etc. There's a lot to ponder on. One problem I began to have is that I would have liked to see maps: areas of the world that would be much drier, much wetter, etc. We see seasonal predictions by the US Weather Bureau: for spring 2008 the Southeast will be warmer and drier than normal, the Northeast will be..etc. Maps showing changing coastlines for, say, a 1 meter rise in the ocean level would be welcome. At times it felt like I was reading about a litany of impending disasters--there will be such things, but a different approach might have helped avoid the litany or doom-and-gloom sense. Finally, what I didn't like, and which I think hurts the book, is social speculation: the rise of fascist regimes, the US invading Canada, and the like. These detract from the scientific emphasis of the book. This is a fine book, but it's also depressing, since you get the sense that the public is not going to take the painful steps that need to be taken.

Chiefs Open New Airport Catering Outlets
Monday 30 April 2012
Two premiership rugby players have played their part in the official opening of the new Fed & Watered restaurant at Exeter Airport.
The new catering contract was awarded to The Mount Charles Group and following their £250,000 investment in a refurbishment programme, Kevin Barrett and Matt Jess from the Exeter Chiefs helped kick off the new catering facilities which include the Fed & Watered bistro brand along with a further two cafés.
The contract worth in excess of £10 million started last month when The Mount Charles Group was appointed sole food and beverages provider at the airport. Passengers are now presented with striking new surroundings and an enhanced menu offering regional fare including West Country Beef, Devon cheese and cream.
Matt Roach, Managing Director of Exeter Airport commented; "I have been extremely impressed with the enthusiasm shown by the new Mount Charles team and we are looking forward to a very successful long term relationship.
The roll out of the third Fed & Watered bistro in the last 12 months by Northern Ireland based company, The Mount Charles Group, is the Group's first outlet in England and follows the opening of the brand at Belfast International Airport.
Managing Director of The Mount Charles Group Trevor Annon said; "We have an exciting opportunity to improve the catering outlets at Exeter Airport and it is very rewarding to have secured the contract after a highly competitive process.
"It was always an important part of our strategic plan to diversify into new markets and Exeter offers us huge potential in terms of growing the Fed & Watered brand. This tremendous gain will now open up opportunities for us to develop services within the regional airport market throughout the UK.

Recent reviews
Excellent 4.4 /5 from 291 reviews
Very quiet and easy access, away from all the traffic of the strip. A short drive and you had all you needed. Pretty nice pool and hot tub. Couldn't asked for much better for the price.
Quiet hotel. Very comfortable room. Will definitely stay there again ! Good location . Close to many attractions !
I really enjoyed my stay. only thing the hotel needs a better sign it was barely noticeable and hard to find where to turn into. Also the younger girl that works in the kitchen with the glasses and bad walk was very rude. But other then that I would love to stay there again.
We checked in just an hour before our show, Moses at Sight and Sound Theater. The room was clean and check in was quick. We thought the price booked through Hotels.com was reasonable. Breakfast was really good according to my husband and daughter. Thermostat in the the room was not accurate. It said it was like 68 degrees and it was more like 78. We got it regulated and it was fine. We were glad to have a little refrigerator. It might have been nice to have a microwave. The pool and hot tub were very nice. I appreciated the fact that there were tons of towels in the pool area. The only miscommunication was with special requests. I requested a room on the lower level, close to elevator and/or pool. The hotel said they did not receive that information from Hotel's.com even though I showed them my print out. I don't think Barrington was being honest with me. I had a room on the 4th floor and it was fairly close to the elevator, so it all worked out. I liked the fact that we could pay when we arrived instead of putting it on a charge card. The hotel was very clean and seemed to be organized. It is not the cutest or fanciest hotel in Branson, but met our needs. Let me give you one warning . . . Do not eat at Shoneys.
The hotel shows some really good pictures of its rooms, that's the good thing. The bad things you will need to consider with all the other choices available are the beds are hard and would compare to sleeping on the floor, the parking lot was dim to no lighting and when we came back from dinner, had to come in thru the pool access because someone had that door propped open, but be careful because pool means slippery floors. You normally have to enter the front entrance and when it's raining and you have to walk around the building this becomes a bad experience as was ours. When you leave out the doors and it's raining the drip spouts tend to drip on you and not away from the doors and headed to the parking lot felt like crossing a creek.

In his lifetime, he was mainly known as a communist[edit]
In his lifetime, he was known mainly as a communist, both as a writer and activist for communist causes. So this needs to be mentioned prominently. He only became known as a book author after his death.
Also, it's certainly wrong (not neutral) to portray him as an "expert" on the "extreme right", considering that he himself belonged to the extreme left, as a member, activist and writer for several organisations with a totalitarian and anti-democratic ideology, including the Communist Workers League. The extreme right were his political opponents, but it's not like they were more extreme than him, as he was an opponent of democracy. TYRXrus (talk) 17:16, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
- Seems consistent with what I know. Anyone have a different view? --Anthon.Eff (talk) 02:07, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
- According to the article he was an activist with (and left his estate to) the Kommunistiska Arbetareförbundet (AKA Revolutionära Marxisters Förbund). If that's incorrect, Liftarn, please be bold and make the requisite changes.--Anthon.Eff (talk) 01:37, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Depends on how you define "communist". I'd say he was well known as a journalist with discernible left-wing sympathies. Some of his reporting and magazine publishing work was politically motivated, in a broad sense, but he wasn't a fanatic or a one-eyed pundit which is what "mainly known as a communist" implies, certainly to (for instance) many Americans. The kind of journalism he engaged in, the subjects a magazoine such as Expo covered, have been left aside by major Swedish news outlets and papers in the past dozen years, in favour of more glossy celebrity gossip and pink lifestyle features, but that doesn't mean it would count as propaganda.
- The supposed testament, by the way (if it's genuine) was written when he was 23, and it's never been legally recognized. There's no reason to think it reflects his mature convictions.Strausszek (talk) 03:48, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
- One can also add that the Expo foundation and Magazine (his work for the last 9 years of his life) is politically neutral, and not affiliated to any political party. This article reads like a typical "Sceptical american viewpoint" with his communist affiliation overemphasized and his fight against racism underreported. Not a word on activity as editor in chief of Expo.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.96.36.199 (talk • contribs)
- Communist seems to be some something bad in US. Funny. But still Stieg Larson has been one of the worlds leading experts on nazism. Not to mention that is absolutely not neurtral. Besides, it's quite faulty logic to think that given he was "extreme left" he could not all the same be an expert on the extreme right. To say that the Communist Workers League has a totalitarian and anti-democratic ideology leaves me rather speechless and I only can recommend to read about democracy and totalitarianism. But since I heard that some Americans regard President Obama as socialist I shouldn't be surprised... Some literature:
- 1991 Swedish racism – the democratic way, in: A. Sivanandan (Hrsg.): Europe: Variations on a Theme of Racism; Institute for Race Relations; London 1991; ASIN B000S8FK90
- 1991 Extremhögern, together with Anna-Lena Lodenius; Tiden Förlag; Stockholm 1994; ISBN 91-550-3686-4

His "official" website[edit]
This was set up after his death. How can it be his website? Should be changed to "Posthumous website about him"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 22.214.171.124 (talk) 13:30, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
Please find the facts, not opinion. Larsson must have done actions which support or deny allegations. After death, anyone can have a perception they want to air in public. Question rather, the agenda of the opinion giver. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.104.22.168 (talk) 21:03, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
Movie adaptation[edit]
A movie on The girl with the dragn Tattoo has been made, and it was released in sweden and other countries (I only know about Spain... because I'm spanish and just saw it). There should be some sort of mention about this —Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.96.36.199 (talk) 01:28, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
Modesty Blaise[edit]
As far as I can see, the relationship between Lisbeth and Modesty Blaise is so tenuous as to be nonexistent. If no one objects within a week, I intend to delete this sentence. Paul Magnussen (talk) 00:19, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
- If you Google for the two names, you will find that reliable sources notably disagree with you. Whether you're right or not, the comparison is made frequently. Dylan Flaherty (talk) 14:49, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
"Activist" is actually a weasel word, a euphamism for communist or left-wing activist. It is never used to mean right-wing activist. I have not been able to find a single instance in Wikipedia where a conservative, libertarian, or right-winger was referred to as an "activist". Weasel words and euphamisms violate Wikipedia style guidelines, and should be replaced. If there are no good arguments during the next week for keeping the current wording, I would like to edit this article and replace "Activist and journalist" with "Communist activist and journalist". Thanks.
Wmoran9550 (talk) 22:00, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
- Does the source call him a "communist activist" ? If no, then please don't make your changes. Even if everything you say is true, it amounts to original research. Just keep to what the sources say, and summarize them to fit them into the article. I hope him being sympathetic to "communist" causes doesn't push too many buttons, let's just leave it at "activist". cojoco (talk) 11:59, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
- That's an absurd assertion; there are plenty of conservative and reactionary activists covered in Wikipedia. --Orange Mike | Talk 05:45, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, and let's call him what he is: a communist activist. Don't weasel word the thing by trying to hide what he was, which is a supporter of an anti-freedom ideology that murdered and killed more people in the 20th century than any other political ideology, including German National Socialism. JettaMann (talk) 22:03, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
Well yes, if I had said there were no conservative or reactionary activists covered in Wikipedia, that would be absurd. But I did not say that. I said that conservatives, libertarians, and right-wingers are never referred to as mere "activists" in those articles - at least not as far as I've been able to ascertain. On the contrary, the political nature of their activism is always clearly identified - and in fact, it is usually emphasized. The term activist seems to be reserved for left-wing activists, and I think this is a euphamism that should be avoided. To call Larsson an "activist" does not distinguish him at all from Jerry Falwell or David Duke. If a person was an activist for a self-described communist organization, as Larsson was, and if he identified himself, publicly and proudly, as a communist, a Trotskyist, as Larsson did, I see no reason to obscure that fact by referring to him as some generic activist. Imagine if the article on Leon Trotsky referred to him as an activist and journalist. Wmoran9550 (talk) 16:31, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
In reviewing the article for this discussion, I noticed that the assertions about Larsson's political activities and affiliations were not sourced. Of course, I did not write any of this article. But still, I researched and found multiple sources supporting what the article states, and I inserted one of those sources as a footnote. There seems to be no question about the facts, and if those facts are going to be stated in the article, then the section title should accurately characterize those statements. Statements and assertions in the article must be supported by external sources. But that is not true for the section titles. The source for the section titles must be the article itself. The section title should accurately characterize the content which follows. I have proposed editing the title of a section where it is asserted that Stieg Larsson was a political activist for the Kommunistiska Arbetareförbundet (Communist Workers League}, and that he was editor of the Swedish Trotskyist journal Fjärde internationalen. In the next section, it is further stated that he wished to leave his property to the Communist Workers League upon his death, which would indicate that he remained a communist until his death. The current section title does not characterize that content, but rather blurs it and masks it. Wmoran9550 (talk) 08:20, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
- No, it may just indicate that he never got around to changing that ancient will. It happens. --Orange Mike | Talk 05:45, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
True. Maybe he never got around to changing it. Maybe he completely forgot about it. But there is no evidence of that, so we have no basis for assuming it. The fact that this will was still in existence at the time of his death is rather evidence that he still wanted its terms implemented - especially considering that his political views had not changed in any noticeable way. But that will is not the main point. The main point is the content of the section titled "Activist and journalist". The content of that section is that Larsson was a communist activist. I think the section heading should reflect that content. I see no reason why it shouldn't. But I'm in no great hurry to change Activist to Communist Activist - especially over the objections of two experienced and accomplished editors. I may not be persuaded, but I can still defer. I'm actually more interested in the discussion of the issue. The one-week window was not meant as a deadline, but only a suggested time-frame. Based on this discussion so far, I would not make any change to the title. But I would like to continue the discussion. Wmoran9550 (talk) 16:31, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
Politics aside, it seems to me that "activist" is an unusually mild word for someone who spent a year training guerrillas in Africa. The words "mercenary" or "terrorist" might be asserted by some, but I'd suggest that in the full context "revolutionary" might be the best word, so I'm changing it accordingly. Geoff NoNick (talk) 20:09, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
- The way to resolve this would be to find some sources that indicate how he was described. His biography says "activist," so I am going with that for now. I don't think it is up to WP editors to determine. Sunray (talk) 20:37, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
- "someone who spent a year training guerrillas in Africa"[citation needed]???? Oh, really? Where did you get that assertion? And what kind of guerrillas is this sedentary science fiction fanzine editor supposed to have trained? Are we talking African National Congressor SWAPO or who? --Orange Mike | Talk 20:49, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
- The "assertion" came from the article itself and cites an news report in the Guardian that in turn quotes a life-long friend of Larsson. The African guerrillas he was training were the Marxist Eritrean People's Liberation Front. The same newspaper article quotes his friend describing him as a "revolutionary socialist". I realize this only one part of a very busy life, but how many guerrilla revolutions does one need to participate in to qualify as a revolutionary? He clearly was a revolutionary early in his life (I don't regard this as a derogatory observation, by the way) before falling back to a somewhat milder left-wing activism. I think the best compromise is to include "revolutionary" and "activist" as separate items in the title, to indicate that his revolutionary work was as distinct from his activism as it was from his writing.

Is he currently the second best selling author (behind Khaled Hosseini)?
If so, I will change the article to reflect this (or someone else is welcome to). Ormewood (talk) 03:15, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Many people in sweden believe he was murdered/assassinated[edit]
Shouldn't it be mentioned many people in Sweden believe his death may have been a conspiracy? Its nearly impossible it was but a lot of people believe this. Maybe should add some stuff on this? 220.127.116.11 (talk) 16:35, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
- If you can find reliable sources on this subject, it can be included. Philip Cross (talk) 16:42, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
- Rumour is not an authority for anything. The facts are that he died of a heart attack. There is nothing to suggest that this was not a death from natural causes. No doubt he had many enemies, being a Communist, terrorist and opponent of far right wing groups. But how many people from the far left or far right are murdered by their political opposites? To say very few exaggerates the numbers!184.108.40.206 (talk) 08:50, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
Reason for not marrying[edit]
The explanation for why Larsson and Gabrielsson never married doesn't make sense to anyone who has lived in Sweden. Everyone's address is public information under Swedish law - http://www.thelocal.se/discuss/index.php?showtopic=58131 - so it can't simply be that they didn't marry in order to avoid their address(es) becoming public. It seems that foreign journalists unfamiliar with this system, including Nick Cohen in the article cited, have misunderstood the significance of comments by Gabrielsson. For example, in this interview - http://www.harpersbazaar.com/beauty/health-wellness-articles/eva-gabriellson-on-steig-larsson - Gabrielsson refers to the publishing of Larsson's address by a Swedish hate group. The significance of this is not that the address would previously have been unpublished, but that he was named as a target. So presumably their reason for not marrying was that he didn't want her to be associated with him in the public records, with the likelihood that she would also become a target. This is my attempt to interpret the information in the light of how things actually work in Sweden - I don't have a link to a source that would clear up the point - so I'm leaving this as a comment here, in the hope that someone else can provide a reference.
Controversy with father and brother?[edit]
Eva Gabrielsson was his "long-term partner", and found the DRAFT will of 1977. It is true that she had "no legal right to the inheritance", but this did not spark "controversy between her and his father and brother". She may have expressed a wish to benefit from the estate, but this is not a controversy 'between' her and the family.126.96.36.199 (talk) 08:46, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

Thermal Imagers are sensitive to the Infrared, which is a band in the electromagnetic spectrum.
Gases have their own characteristic absorption lines in the IR spectrum; VOC's and others have these lines in the region of the MWIR. The use of a thermal imager as an infrared gas leak detector adjusted to the region of interest will allow the gases to be visualized. Thermal imagers are sensitive to the absorption lines spectrum of the gases and designed to have the optical path sensitivity in correspondence with the gases in the spectrum area of interest. If a component is leaking, the emissions will absorb the IR energy, appearing as smoke black or white on the LCD screen.
The leaking gas temperature differs from the background temperature. The radiation getting to the camera is the background radiation from the background and the radiation from the gas area which obscures the background visualizing the existence of the gas.
The EyeCGas® is the only Infrared gas leak detector Camera specially designed for the Petrochemical, Gas & Oil market requirements for gas detection and Smart LDAR compliance.
The EyeCGas® allows the inspection of vast areas in a plant with an automated and simple user interface, visualizing the infrared image on a large color LCD.
Build-In DVR (Digital Video Recording) allows video and audio recording for up to 6 continuous hours.
Gas leak detection equipment is vital to keeping your employees, environment and product safe. EyeCGas® saves time in the search for fugitive gas leaks and provides confidence that equipment is free from leaks of methane and volatile organic compounds (VOC) and other gases..
Rugged and durable certified for the use in hazardous locations. Simplifying and broadening opportunities for use inside the facility limits without the need of a hot work permit allowing video and audio recording while maintaining safety.
