For connoisseurs of imaginative fiction, the novels of Jonathan Carroll are a special treat that occupy a space all their own. His surreal fictions, which deftly mix the everyday with the extraordinary, have won him a devoted following. Now, in Glass Soup, Carroll continues to astound . . . .
The realm of the dead is built from the dreams--and nightmares--of the living. Octopuses drive buses. God is a polar bear. And a crowded highway literally leads to hell.
Once before, Vincent Ettrich and his lover, Isabelle Neukor, crossed over from life to death and back again. Now Isabelle bears a very special child, who may someday restore the ever-changing mosaic that is reality. Unless the agents of Chaos can lure her back to the land of the dead--and trap her there forever.
Glass Soup is another exquisite and singular creation from the author January magazine described as "incapable of writing a bad book much less an uninteresting one."
Editorial Reviews
"I love Jonathan Carroll's books. They are as surprising and delightful as Rottweiler puppies-- and they bite, too." Audrey Niffenegger, author of The Time Traveler's Wife, on Glass Soup
"I always look forward to a new book by Jonathan Carroll--his work is consistently witty, compassionate and astounding, and Glass Soup is no exception. It is a tender, funny love story, both madcap and darkly metaphysical: a singular creation that further adds to the fabulous Carroll oeuvre." Dan Chaon, author of You Remind Me of Me
"An ambitious retelling of the cosmic struggle between good and evil... make Carrol's latest a delicious dish . . . . This is a marvelous comic feast." Publishers Weekly, on Glass Soup
"The plausibly surreal Glass Soup provides more proof Carroll is as marvelous a writer as you'll find in this life or any other." Cinefantastique
"Welcome to another one of Carroll's weird, wondrous worlds…" Time Out New York on Glass Soup
"Glass Soup is a wonder-story rich and complete in its own right, but fans will be interested to know that it also serves as a sequel to the tale of Vincent Ettrich and his beloved Isabelle Neukor, continuing the modern-day Orpheus tale begun in White Apples. Carroll's flights of imagination seem boundless, but, amazingly, his ambitious themes and hallucinatory landscape don't get the better of this tightly plotted, beautifully written story. This may be his best work yet." The Ruminator
"An extraordinary writer. . . . Jonathan Carroll is a cult waiting to be born." Pat Conroy on Jonathan Carroll
"Jonathan Carroll is a changer. He's one of the special ones, one of the few . . . . He gives you his eyes to see with, and he gives you the world all fresh and honest and new." Neil Gaiman, author of American Gods
"Jonathan Carroll is a master of sunlit surrealism--his beguiling, impossible novels are like Frank Capra films torn open to reveal the Philip K. Dick or Julio Cortázar mechanisms ticking away at their cores." Jonathan Lethem

Read an Excerpt
A Hot, Dark Yes
"If I were married to a woman who dressed like that, I'd murder her clothes and bury them deep in a forest in the middle of the night." Flora Vaughn said this too loudly about all overdressed woman who had just passed their table. Then Flora looked meaningfully at Leni Salomon. Both of them wore the same color of fingernail polish matte brown.
Isabelle Neukor looked from one woman to the other and smiled. They were her best friends; they were all thirty-two and had grown up together. But her friends could not save her now. No one could.
Leni's cane leaned against her thigh like a silent devoted dog. She walked with a pronounced limpher left leg was shorter than the right. She was also the best-looking af the three women but like most genuinely good-looking people, paid it little mind.
Leni Salomon and Flora Vaughn had husbands, Isabelle did not. Leni and Flora were not in love with their men, Isabelle was. Strange things had been happening to her lately; so strange that she could not believe some of them. Even after all that had happened in the last months, she could not believe these recent events had actually taken place. She had told no one about any of them, not even Vincent.
"Guess who died, like, a year ago but I just heard about it?" Florasat back and dropped her large pink napkin dramatically onto her plate of half-eaten asparagus. She was given to stagy gestures it was her way. She had a big man's laugh. She used a lot of body language when she spoke, as if trying to explain things to a deaf and dumb world. People had different opinions about her lookssome thought she was a knockout, others that she was creepy with her very long auburn hair and almost Oriental eyes. Vincent liked her a lot. He called her "Big Red" after they met the first time and since hearing that, she often signed her notes to anyone "Red."
Leni made false teeth gold teeth, bridges, false teeth. She was a dental technician, one of the best around. She loved the job, its intricacies and complications. She called it useful architecture. When anyone asked her a question, she held it up and turning it slowly, looked at it from every angle as if it were a tooth she was making. "Someone we know or someone famous?"
Flora looked at Leni and winked. Then her eyes moved over to Isabelle and she said in an oily way "Someone you and I once knew, Leni, but who really wanted to know Isabelle."
From a blank "Huh?" Isabelle's expression slid into a frown. A few beats passed until her eyes slowly began to widen in recognition. Aghast, she put a hand in front of her mouth. "Simon?"
Flora nodded. "Dead over a year ago."
Leni gasped. "Simon Haden died?"
Flora steepled her fingers and looked prayerfully toward heaven, like a saint on a kitsch Italian religious postcard.
As one, the three women burst out laughing at the fact of Simon Haden's death.
Standing in a giant meadow next to an ugly back longhaired dog named Hietzl, Vincent Ettrich. watcled an airplane sail eight feet above their heads and crash nearby. Ettrich sighed. Hietzl would have sighed too if it had understood how much time and trouble its friendhad put into building that plane. But the dog was so happy just to be out there alone with Vincent that its sigh wouldn't have lasted long.
Shaking his head, Ettrich walked to the wrecked model and squatted down next to it, hands on his knees. As was his style, he was dressed like a teenagerancient washed-out jeans, gray and white skateboarder's sneakers, and a black T-shirt with a picture of John Lennon on it. Ettrich was young-looking anyway. Seeing him for the first time, you would have guessed he was in his thirties rather than the early forties he was.
Hietzl heard something and quickly turned its head to the left. Ettrich continued to stare at what was left of his model airplane and wonder what he had done wrong in assembling it. The dog began barking so furiously that Ettrich snapped out of his funk-trance and looked toward where his companion was pointing. Behind them was a giant stand of trees, their leaves blowing in the frisky warm wind. But Hietzl was pointing in the opposite directionout toward the open field.
Puzzled, Ettrich looked down at Hietzl and asked "What? What's there?"
The dog ignored him and kept yapping.
That annoying rat-a-tat barking and the wind soughing through the trees around them was all there was. It was midsummer; a sky the color of shirt cardboard, the air heavy with humidity. No one else was around.
Ettrich came out here often with the dog to walk or lie on his back and look at the clouds. Since moving to Vienna, he had done little besides recover his strength and think about the child Isabelle was going to give birth to soon.
Ettrich had died but then been brought back to life by Isabelle. He had crossed and recrossed the great border. While on the other side he'd learned both the language and some of the requisite lessons of the dead. Alive again, he thought his mind had been wiped clean of what he had been exposed to in the short time he had been dead.He was wrong. Ettrich retained everything he had experienced. But to access that room in his mind now, he needed a key to the door. Right now he did not have one.
As soon as it was possible for him to travel he and Isabelle had left America and flown to Vienna. Ettrich left his wife, two children, and a life he had once thoroughly enjoyed and felt content with. But he abandoned it all because he wanted to be with Isabelle Neukor. He was willing to throw everything aside so that he could spend the rest of his life with her and their child. Their doubts were over. They had crossed the great bridge between now and then.
Hietzl's barking took on a new tone: it was even more urgent, as if there was real danger nearby, or they were right on the brink of something. Ettrich looked again toward where the dog was pointing but saw nothing. Still, Hietzl's agitated tone made him uneasy. For some reasonwho knows why?he turned quickly and glanced back to the place on the ground where his model airplane had crashed a few minutes before. It was gone.
Ettrich did not appear surprised. His eyes flicked here and there around the area to make sure this was true. It wasthe model had disappeared. Only then did a kind of alarm show on his face. The dog was rightreal trouble had just arrived.
The dog stopped a moment, and then continued barking.
"Stop it! Come on, we've got to go right now." Ettrich touched the dog on top of its head. Then he began walking back toward his car as fast as he could manage. He had not healed completely so he couldn't run. But he would have.
Two hundred yards behind them among the thick stand of trees stood another man and his dog. This man's name was John Flannery. He was portly and rather short. He wore a trimmed salt-and-pepper beard. People sometimes remarked on the resemblance between himand photos of the older Ernest Hemingway. Flannery always liked hearing that. He'd never read Hemingway but liked who he was.
Today he wore a brand-new blue T-shirt that wasn't tucked into a pair of brand-new beige shorts covered with lots of pockets. Oddly, he was barefoot although he stood on a forest floor covered with a variety of sharp stabby things.
The dog, a Great Dane with black spots scattered across its white body like ink spilled on a blotter, was named Luba. It had blue eyes and stood unmoving by Flannery's side. The presence of these two had caused Ettrich's dog to start barking. Interestingly, Hietzl had sensed them but gotten their direction wrong. Ettrich saw northing when he looked toward where Hietzl was yapping because nothing was there. Flannery and Luba stood far behind them, watching impassively, as the other two walked away and finally out of sight. Flannery held Ettrich's model plane in both of his hands. It was whole again and looked like it bad just come new out of a box.
When the others were gone, Flannery turned toward the woods and lifted his arm high above his head. With a quick flick of the wrist, he threw the plane into the trees.
Defying all laws of logic and gravity, it stayed aloft for the next twenty minutes. Even when the wind around them died completely, the small plane continued flying through the forestaround trees, beneath and above and round and round long crooked grasping branches that normally never would have let it pass. The plane flew right by those branches. It taunted them with loop de loops and sud den swerves to avoid all kinds of collisions that should have happened but didn't.
After a while Flannery and Luba sat down on the forest floor to watch this performance. Now and then the man spoke to the dog in a relaxed companionable voice. It looked at him as if it understood every word.
At one point Flannery raised his left hand. The wooden plane instantly stopped and hung in the air fifteen feet up, next to a toweringchestnut tree covered with flickering yellow-green leaves. A mile and a half away, Ettrich had started his car and was driving off. Flannery nodded and smiled for the first time, having waited for the sound of those tires crunching across the gravel of the parking lot. I His hand dropped and the plane started flying again.
"Things look good, but we can't get excited yet. 'Thunder is not yet rain,'" John Flannery said out loud. He loved proverbs. He memorized whole books of them and always had one for any occasion. Suddenly another popped into his head. "Too large a morsel chokes the child." As he thought about it for a few moments, his face lit up in delight. He could use that. Damn right! He could use it this minute to make Vincent Ettrich's life a very, very uncomfortable place to be.
He raised his chin a bit toward where the plane was flying. It did a 180-degree turn toward him. As if waiting for instructions, it paused a second or two and then flew away. Out of the forest, away from the trees and Flannery and Luba the dog, the plane flew toward Ettrich and his dog and Isabelle Neukor and their child and the misery these people would soon know. Today was the first day of the end of their lives. Even John Flannery felt sort of sorry for these poor fuckers, if you can believe that.
"So how did Haden die?"
Sitting back in the chair, Flora Vaughn crossed her arms over her chest. "How come I don't hear a lot of regret in your question, Leni?"
Leni rolled her eyes and proceeded to answer for all of them. "Because Simon told the women he wanted to fuck that he was dying so they'd feel sorry for him and go to bed with him. I did, and so did you. I don't care if he's dead."
Flora nodded and smiled. "Don't you love the way Leni phrases things so diplomatically? She should be an ambassador to some dangerous countryshe'd start World War Three in half an hour. 'Mr. President,your foreign policy sucks. It's obvious you're either completely incompetent, or you've got a small cock and are compensating."
"We're not talking about me. How did Simon die?"
Flora took a drink of water and then pointed at the glass. "In a car wash."
Her answer was so unexpected that spontaneously the three of them broke out laughing again.
"No, reallyhow?"
"That's the truth. Sabine Baar-Baarenfels told me. He died in a car wash in Los Angeles. He had a heart attack while his car was being washed." Some answers in life are so weird yet satisfying that on hearing them, all that the mind can do is sit back and burp.
Simon Haden had enthusiastically pursued Isabelle for years, trying every method he knew to get her into bed. Usually he was very good at seduction, a real pro. He used dying, he used love, he used sneaky in numerous, original ways. To his great dismay, none of them worked on her. When they were together, Isabelle was charming and funny and great company, but she always, always knew what Haden was trying to do. Smiling, she invariably stopped him miles from any bedroom door. All of this flashed through her mind now as she stared at Flora Vaughn and digested the fact that Simon was dead.
"What was he doing in Los Angeles?" Leni's question broke the ice that had formed over the moment.
"Who cares? But you know what really annoys me? What really bugs me? Now that that villain is dead, I keep thinking sweet things about him. Like the time he brought me lilies, or the time we stayed in bed all morning and ate chocolates. It's not right, damn it. Simon does not deserve sweet thoughts, whether he's dead or alive. The man was a selfish pig who just happened to be handsome enough to be irresistible. But once you'd fallen for the temptation, he treated you like a piece of old gum on the bottom of his shoe."
Leni closed her eyes and nodded in agreement. "I felt more likean empty stained pastry box after he left me. But I agree. Who said you can't speak ill of the dead?"
Isabelle was only half listening to what her friends were saying. She was feeling sick again and was waiting to see if her stomach was going to hold down the meal she had just eaten or throw it back up. That was one of the only things about pregnancy that bothered her: she would suddenly feel horribly ill, or diarrhea would abruptly come hurtling down her guts like an avalanche. When these things happened she would have to drop everything and bolt for the nearest toilet. It was embarrassing and sometimes frightening to feel that you were not always in control of your own body and its most basic functions.
After a few seconds of waiting and listening to her body, Isabelle knew this was going to get worse so she stood up quickly. Both friends looked at her.
"I'm going to be sick."
Instantly concerned, Flora half rose from her chair and pointed across the restaurant toward the toilets. The room was large and Isabelle had a long way to go.
"Do you want me to come with you?"
Isabelle shook her head and started away from the table. Walking fast, she put a hand over her mouth.
Flora slowly sat back down but kept watching her friend cross the room. "Do you think I should go anyway? Maybe she needs someone to hold her head."
Leni moved her cane a few inches to the right. "Forget it. You know how embarrassing that stuff is. Who wants someone watching while you puke? I still can't believe that Simon is dead."
Two good-looking women at a chic restaurant, talking about a lover they'd once shared. Both of them had stories about Simon Haden that the other hadn't heard. Now that he was dead, they could tell them.
Time passed while they spoke and laughed. Isabelle did not return to the table. Flora and I eni were both aware of this but it didn't concern them at first. Isabelle was vainit was not uncommon for her to take a while.
Eventually too much time passed and Leni mentioned it. Flora got up immediately and went to the ladies' room. Pushing the door open, she fully expected to see Isabelle standing at one of the mirrors over the sinks, primping and looking at her reflection. She wasn't.
"Isabelle?" She looked at the two toilet stalls. Both doors were closed. A toilet flushed with a hard whoosh and Flora was momentarily relieved. She was sure her friend was in there. But she wasn't. Instead, a nondescript middle-aged woman opened the stall door and glared at her as if she were doing something fishy. Flora ignored this and went up to the other stall door. The suspicious woman went to the sink and washed her hands. She kept a careful eye on this tall redhead who was now knocking on the stall door with a flat palm.
"Excuse mewhat are you doing?"
Flora looked at this woman for three seconds, and then turned back to the stall door. "Isabelle, are you in there?"
"Don't do that. What are you doing?"
Flora turned and looked witheringly at the woman. "Have you finished in here? Mind your own business and leave."
In true Viennese fashion, the woman huffed and puffed but then fled.
When she was gone, Flora knocked hard again on the stall door. This time the force of it pushed the door open. No one was inside.
Flora turned around and walked back into the restaurant. She could just make out across the dimly lit room that Leni was sitting at their table talking to someone. A man ... Vincent Ettrich.
As was the case whenever she saw Vincent, Flora froze for a beat. Before he met Isabelle, Vincent and Flora had had a wonderful short affair that left her dizzy with surprise, desire, and longing. Ithad not gone the way she planned. For two years after it ended (her doing), Flora could not stop wondering in her secret heart if this was the man she had been waiting for her whole life. When it was happening, both of them had treated their relationship as something de rightful but insubstantiala classic fling. For a few days here and there together now and then, two married people being naughty away from the world among crumpled bedsheets and hotel room service.
When the end came, Flora was initially glad, then sad, and in due course dumbstruck by how much their affair had meant to her. A month after she had ended it, she saw Vincent again in New York. But she was so frightened of her feelings for him that she barely let him kiss her on both cheeks when they met for lunch. To her dis may, her aloofness didn't appear to bother him a bit. Naturally she'd had fantasies during their time apart. Some important part of her hoped he would have come to the same conclusions as she and run to her when they met, hope and gratitude flying off him like sparks. Instead Ettrich looked at her fondly, as if she were an old classmate he was pleased to see and shoot the breeze with about the good old days-but that was all.
Half a year later he came to Vienna for business and at a party they both attended, Flora introduced him to Isabelle. Later she swore to Leni that she knew the moment those two shook hands that that was it; Fate had just stepped onstage. But the truth was she introduced them because she was showing this man to Isabelle for her appraisal. She wanted her best friend to meet and talk to the guy so hopefully she'd have some new insight as to how Flora might win him back.
But part of her account to Leni was truefifteen minutes after introducing Vincent to Isabelle, Flora Vaughn had seen enough to fade into the background. She turned quickly away with a gulp and a grimace when later she saw them leave the party together.
"I li Vincent." She always worried about her voice when she wasaround him. Worried that it would betray her by going too high or low or crack or something that would tip him off as to how flustered she still was in his presence.
"Was she in there?"
The abruptness of his question took her off guard. Flora sat down. "No. I didn't see her leave, did you?"
Leni took out her cell phone and dialed Isabelle's number. "No, and you know she would have told us if she were going home."
Flora's eyes traveled back and forth between Leni and Ettrich.
Looking around the room, he slowly began to shake his head. "The whole thing is starting again." It appeared that he was talking to someone but it wasn't them.
Holding the phone to her ear, Leni looked at her friend to see if she understood what he was talking about. Flora caught the look and shrugged no. Then she gently asked Vincent what he meant.
Even if he had wanted to answer, there was no time. A giant, ear-splitting crash exploded from the front of the restaurant. People sitting at the tables there cried out and leapt from their places, glass shards and splinters splashing on and all around them. The wide front window of the restaurant had been destroyed. Half of it still sat in place, jagged and dangerous-looking. The other half, the top part, had burst across the tables and floors and customers seated nearby. It looked like a bomb had gone off.
There was such shouting, movement, and tumult that no one paid attention to what caused this. One minute the window was there, full of afternoon light, the next it exploded, showering a million sharp pieces of glass across the room. A woman stood frozen in place, her little round pocketbook held out in front of her like a shield to stop whatever came next. She jerked when another crash came a moment latera waiter dropped the large metal tray he was carrying when he began to feel the glass shard wedged in his cheek. Part of the shard was blacka fragment of one of the letters spelling the name of the restaurant on the front window.
Leni had been trained in first aid and immediately went to help. Flora, not knowing what else to do, followed her.
Vincent's eyes darted all around, taking in the scene: paranoid, dubious, taking in everything. The room was chaos. No one else knew what he knew. What was worsewhat had just happened, or knowing what he did?
He wanted to stop the world for just a moment before deciding what to do next. Despite what was happening around him, he dropped his head back and closed his eyes. No goodthose few seconds in his own darkness brought nothing helpfulall he knew was that he had to find Isabelle immediately.
Head still tilted back, he opened his eyes. High above the table hung his model airplane. Motionless, it looked as if it were suspended there on wires. It was larger now, twice as large as the one he had built. But even at that distance there was no question that this was the same planesame shape, same markings. Only now it was two feet long. Big enough to break through a thick window if it hit the glass with enough velocity and force.
The instant Vincent became aware of it, the model began falling toward the table. It dropped slowly, like a leaf drifting down from a tree on a windless day. A dip here, a twist, it descended like it had all the time in the world. When it landed on his table it gently knocked over a half-filled glass of red wine.
The plane lay so that Ettrich could see the cockpit. He had done a brilliant quick sketch there with a black felt-tip pen of Isabelle's head, as if she were the pilot. He had showed it to her as she was walking out the door to have lunch with her girlfriends. Stopping, she closely examined it and smiled. Without looking at him she asked "Am I the pilot of your plane?" He wrapped his arms around her big pregnant body from behind and growled "A hot dark yes to that, Cap."

Everything about this book is perfect. Read it!
'Once again you have the great good fortune to be able to read a new book by Jonathan Carroll and that's a lucky break, indeed, because Carroll is one of the best living writers of grownup fantasy. 'GLASS SOUP is a sequel to WHITE APPLES but though it would be a good idea to read the one before the other because of the accumulation of riches, Carroll has sculpted this new book in such a way that it stands easily on its own. 'Both books concern the great and growing love between Isabelle Neukor and Vincent Ettrich and take place both here in this amazing world of the living and in the equally amazing afterlives to which we go when we die. 'These afterlives are very personal since they are made up of our dreams and our task is to see through these dreams, one by one. 'An author less brilliant than Carroll would be sure to get himself deeply into trouble pretty early on with such a ground plan but his extraordinary imagination, humor and humanity are more than up to the challenge. 'Let me give you just one example of how brilliantly he plays with things like a set of interfitting Chinese boxes. When poor Character A becomes convinced that the total bizareness of his weird afterlife must surely indicate the whole thing's a mere preliminary to his being tossed into Hell with its lakes of bubbling brimstone, he decides to visit God's office, which he's noticed many times before but avoided going to because of sheer terror. He is deeply puzzled when he sees God is an enormous polar bear. But then love flows over him when he realizes it is Bob, the stuffed polar bear he adored as a child. Finally though, his heart sinks when it seems Bob wants him to do something more terrifiying than diving into pools of bubbling brimstone. 'With almost any other author I would be careful not to give away such a scene but GLASS SOUP is so full of such flights, so packed with them, there's no problem at all. I could go on and on with such gems and still not scratch the surface. 'Also be warned: If you read fantasy to get away from the grim and painful emotional realities of life I would particularly recommend you skip Carroll's work. 'On the other hand if you're hurting and would like some very good teachings on the management and treatment of such hurts, I would very much recommend you read Carroll's work. 'There's really nobody like him.'

THE UBIQUITY OF GPS Continue reading »
One of the great promises of the mobile phone with a built-in GPS (Global Positioning System) chip, was/is the elimination of a dedicated device for that purpose. Everyone has to travel somewhere, whether it be to work or play. Having the ability to receive turn by turn directions to your desired destination has had and continues to have a great appeal to all travelers. Companies like TomTom and Garmin have amassed great fortunes through the sale of personal GPS devices. However, can this dominance continue within the dog-eat-dog environment of the App Store ether?

Speedlight Trick #1
Russ MacDonald (Arkayem) on August 19, 2013
Keywords: nikon, speedlights, product, articles
One of the situations I run into regularly is that I am fairly far from a subject who is in a dim ambient setting, and there is something closer to me that will be affecting the flash metering. This could be a plant, a wall, another person, a wedding cake, or anything that can reflect the pre-flash pulses back to the camera.
For example, let's say your subject is standing inside a dim room and you want to shoot a picture of her from outside the room through a doorway. If you simply set TTL on the SB-800 flash and place the subject in the center of the frame and shoot, the reflections from the doorway will make the system think your goal is to shoot the doorway and you will get a great shot of a slightly overexposed doorframe and the subject will be pitch dark. The doorframe will be slightly overexposed, because it is not in the center of the frame, but it will still cause the flash to reduce power drastically leaving the subject dark.
The trick is to first aim the head of the flash forward and remove any diffusers that don't push the little switch on the flash head (so distance information can be used by the flash). Then switch the flash to TTL-BL, frame the shot and hit FV Lock.
Then, the distance to the subject is used in addition to measuring the strength of the reflected pre-flash pulses from the center of the frame. The flash sees that the distance is much farther away than the doorframe, so it increases its power accordingly. This usually doesn't brighten the subject fully, but it definitely brightens the subject far more than using TTL. Of course, once the subject is brightened to proper exposure, the doorframe will likely be blown out, but that can't be avoided.
The way to make this trick easy to implement is to start with the camera in Manual Mode and Matrix Metering and the flash in TTL-BL.
Then, switch the camera to Spot Metering. That will force the flash automatically into TTL which is usually best indoors in dim ambient.
Spot Metering doesn't do anything to the camera settings since Manual Mode has been selected. It only affects the flash mode.
Then, when you run across the situation mentioned above, switch the camera metering to Matrix, and the flash will automatically switch back to TTL-BL, and the shot will be exposed the best way possible. However, the flash may still need increased compensation to get the exposure on the subject exactly right.

Although this book might be considered in the "young folks" genre of the "Lassie" or "Shep" variety, Red Dog was real. Giving him a name would have been out of place. De Bernieres introduces him as "Tally Ho", but that was in his early years when Red Dog's centre of operations was a caravan inhabited by an older couple. Moving into a mining community, Red Dog discovered how to manipulate the miners, all men without companions, and the surrounding communities. They petted, fed and sheltered him in turns. He cadged rides in buses, cars, even on the train running south to Perth, nearly 1500 kilometres distant. As the town grew, Red Dog improved his tastes, hitting hotels and restaurants for culinary leftovers. He took up with one of the workers, but John's death in the bush led Red Dog to further his explorations. He was seeking his lost "master".
The stories of Red Dog's wanderings give de Bernieres an opportunity to apply his descriptive skills to the people and the countryside. He fully captures the Australian inflections, and notes how a mining town was a magnet for itinerants.Read more ›
In this beautiful book, Louis de Bernieres celebrates the life of a real Red Dog that lived in Western Australia during the 1970s.
It conveys a real sense of this marvellous dog's character, who was a real people's friend and was widely known and loved in Western Australia, where it got into all sorts of amusing scrapes during its lifetime.
This book, which is a novella rather than a novel due to its shortness, stands out from the rest of Louis de Bernieres work as different: it does not have the serious political undertones of earlier novels such as Captain Corelli's Mandolin, the bestseller that made Louis de Bernieres literary name; it is, however, tragicomic like his first three books, because of its ending; but, it is far more positive - a celebration of a dog's life rather than a political critique.
It therefore represents a break with the past for Louis de Bernieres.
This funny and entertaining dog's tale gets my thumbs up!
(It also has some marvellous illustations by Alan Baker).
This is not a child's book, perhaps for young readers in Junior High, but not for young children. This is a book about adults and how a remarkably charismatic canine changed their lives. This is not a fairly tale, it includes the realities of very trying circumstances and the people who pioneer the way in this extremely difficult environment. When it gets hot in the USA warnings suggest certain groups stay indoors. When it gets hot down under, warnings are issued for gas tanks that are prone to explode when exposed to the sun!
I think it is great that an author who has established himself as an accomplished literary writer would have the courage to step well away from what has worked for him repeatedly. I was reminded of some of John Steinbeck's work that centered around animals, both his own and fictional. If John Steinbeck can make the change I believe it is safe for other accomplished authors to explore unfamiliar genres, and they do not deserve to be punished for doing so. This is especially the case when the results are so worthwhile. I was going to give this 4 stars but I stepped it up to 5. The book was punished and I wanted to even out what is a brief but entering read.

Even if you'd never heard of A.R.E. Weapons, you didn't know that Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore championed them all the way to a record deal, and you had never heard the band's paean to Times Square, there's a good chance you'd have pegged them as a New York City band. Like a cross between The Ramones and Sonic Youth's less noisy side, A.R.E. Weapons' fourth full-length Modern Mayhem just sounds like something that would come from New York. Their songs place more emphasis on swagger than songcraft, but the attitude they ooze takes them far. A song like "F What You Like" (whose refrain is far less discrete than the title) is perfect anti-pretty-much-everything fodder, complete with eminently singable profanity, and the one-minute punk blast "I Don't Care" is the perfect way to open the album. A.R.E. Weapons even displays an occasionally deft hand when branching out, as the vaguely classic rock/R&B leanings of "Dreamers" work quite well with the band's gritty idealist musings, and "Heartbeat" even flirts with hip-hop. What A.R.E. Weapons can't convey so well is tenderness. "Do You Wanna Hang Around" starts like a late '80s ballad with lots of pulsing synths and trite melodies and doesn't get much better as it goes along. Still, despite the occasional venture into territory that they should go nowhere near, A.R.E. Weapons is still getting by on charisma, and doing just fine at that.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Warstory Archive' started by Legacy Raider, Oct 26, 2009.
good writing, but the misplay at the end by you ruined it for me. anyway, 3.5 stars. pretty good
This was a good read. Made me sort of wanting to use Breloom. Maybe.
Good to see a warstory without scizor on either teams,(or both) and one where both people were smart.
Great match!
Luckily for me I have a scarf sleep talking herracross (and regice)... and insomniac banette + sleep talking regirock/regice on another team, so I can take the spore and beat breloom... usually.
People should substitute first on the main set. Anyways, good story!
***** - No other comment needed.
Awesome game legacy raider, really really want to use loom and lead knight now.

Hollywood Self-Stabbing Victim Tased by LAPD Near Popular Clubs (PHOTOS, VIDEO)
A bloody man who might have stabbed himself put on a crazy show for clubgoers along Hollywood Boulevard near Las Palmas Avenue last night, and some of it was captured on video and in photos (more after the jump).
Because he resisted arrest, officers had to subdue the guy using a taser before letting paramedics take him to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center to be checked out for a possible overdose, LAPD Lt. D. Ferry told the Weekly.
It all happened ...
... shortly before 11 p.m. Tuesday, he said. Hollywood Boulevard was closed at Las Palmas, where several clubs, including Cabo Cantina and Supper Club, often draw crowds.

Premium Seating: Los Angeles Angels v SEATTLE MARINERS
TicketsMon., Aug. 15, 7:05pm
The closure lasted about 20 to 25 minutes as paramedics checked out the man and scooped him into an ambulance, the lieutenant said. The clubs had nothing to do with the action: The man was on the street, he said.
Cops were originally called to the location based on reports of a suspect causing a disturbance, Ferry said.
The suspect, it appeared, had stabbed or cut himself on the back and was bleeding, but he refused help and wouldn't cooperate, he said.
Blood was photographed on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Witnesses didn't see anyone stab him, the lieutenant said, and he did not claim he had been attacked.
The man was not arrested and, because it's likely he was under the influence of drugs, charges might not be sought, Ferry said:
If he's overdosing, is he forming intent for that crime [of resisting arrest]? I don't think so. I don't believe any charges will be levied against him later.
People were tweeting about it:

Did Hawke roll over on US MX missile test?
- From: AAP
- January 01, 2013
AS the Cold War tensions simmered through the 1980s, the US was developing a new generation of super-accurate MX nuclear missiles. The ultimate target was Soviet missile launch sites, but first the Americans wanted to conduct tests by firing at Australia.
The US proposal to fire two missiles - without nuclear warheads - from California and land them in Australian waters east of Tasmania tested the anti-nuclear credentials of the Labor government led by Prime Minister Bob Hawke.
Cabinet papers for 1984 and 1985, released by the National Archives of Australia on Tuesday, show Labor speedily backed away from earlier commitments by the former coalition government of Malcolm Fraser to allow the tests.
In the end, the US backed off and dropped plans for any Australian involvement in the test program.
The so-called Missile Experimental (MX), also named Peacekeeper, was a land-based intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) that could carry up to 10 re-entry vehicles, each armed with a 300-kilotonne nuclear warhead.
The MX was meant to replace older, less accurate missiles with smaller warheads and do the job of knocking out Soviet missile silos.
Like many high-tech US defence projects, MX proved technologically challenging and breathtakingly expensive - costing around $US400 million (in 1980s currency terms) for each of the 114 missiles deployed. MX entered service in 1986 and played a crucial role in helping end the Cold War before the last was retired in 2005.
Australia became involved in 1982, when Fraser agreed to a US request to land two missiles in the Tasman sea, some 220km east of Tasmania.
Archives historical consultant Dr Jim Stokes said the Fraser government had intended to announce the plan in 1982, but with an election near the news was postponed.
When the Labor government was elected in March 1983, Hawke agreed to go ahead with the tests during a visit to Washington.
However, Dr Stokes said it appeared cabinet did not formally discuss the issue before 1985 - by which time the nuclear issue was generating strong community opposition.
In April 1984, an estimated 250,000 people took part in Palm Sunday peace marches around the country.
And at the December 1984 federal election, the new Nuclear Disarmament Party (NDP) - whose Senate candidates included rock singer, activist and current Labor minister Peter Garrett, attracted more than 600,000 votes, a performance that neared the success of the Australian Democrats and more than exceeded that of the Nationals.
Despite this only one NDP Senator, Jo Vallentine from Western Australia, got across the line.
Like other small political parties that have achieved sudden electoral glory, the NDP speedily disintegrated. High profile members, including Vallentine and Garrett, walked out in protest at the party's takeover by the militant Trotskyite Socialist Workers Party.
Later, the NDP's one successful candidate at the 1987 election, Robert Wood, was disqualified for being a UK citizen. When Wood became an Australian, his replacement in the Senate, Irina Dunn, refused to step down and was expelled from the party.
Despite the NDP's troubles, Hawke was clearly conscious of the national sentiment toward nuclear weapons - even though Australia's proposed involvement in the MX program wasn't yet public knowledge.
In January 29, 1985, cabinet decided that if it had to explain its position on the MX, it would say that upon coming to office it was confronted with an undertaking made by Labor's coalition predecessor.
"It had decided to honour that undertaking, but only after the prime minister had secured US agreement to the transfer of the splashdown zone out of the Australian EEZ (exclusive economic zone) into international waters," the cabinet papers say.
As well, the cabinet also decided Hawke would tell the US during his upcoming visit that previous agreement to participate would not constitute a precedent.
Further US requests would be considered "in the light of Australia's policies on arms control and disarmament and would moreover require consultation with the South Pacific Forum".
Public outrage followed when the tests became known on February 1, after the government announced US aircraft monitoring the test would be allowed to use Australian facilities.
Hawke was questioned at a media conference in Brussels on February 4 and responded he was aware of strength of feeling on the issue and would take this into account during his subsequent US meetings.
Whatever passed between Hawke and US secretary of state George Schultz on February 6 isn't known, but it did the trick and Schultz announced the US would proceed without Australian involvement.
The issue resurfaced recently following media reports comparing Hawke's backdown on the MX to Prime Minister Julia Gillard's capitulation to caucus in deciding Australia would abstain from, rather than oppose, a United Nations vote on observer status for Palestine.
But former Hawke government minister Susan Ryan rejects suggestions Hawke rolled over on the issue.
"I don't think taking account of public opinion is the same thing as being rolled," she told reporters at the launch of the cabinet papers.
Ms Ryan said while people in the community and party branches may have been worried about a US missile hitting Australian territory, no-one in cabinet had that concern.
"It was really more an expression of concern about the American alliance," she said.
"Even though the Labor party and Labor in government have always supported the American alliance, there has always been an element that's quite suspicious, as there is right now."

Lovereading view...
June 2012 Guest Editor Joanne Harris on Les Misérables...
One of the great passions of my adolescence, by the author that ruined Dickens for me forever; a massive, breathtaking novel, thrilling but literary, perfectly poised between epic and melodrama. It follows over three decades and through many adventures across post-revolutionary France the progress of Jean Valjean, an ex-convict who has broken parole, seeking a life of redemption, and, in his wake, Inspector Javert, the incorruptible lawman who seeks to bring him to justice. A perfect novel of struggle, self-knowledge, compassion and what it means to be human.
Les Miserables by Victor Hugo, Norman Denny
Victor Hugo's tale of injustice, heroism and love follows the fortunes of Jean Valjean, an escaped convict determined to put his criminal past behind him. But his attempts to become a respected member of the community are constantly put under threat: by his own conscience, when, owing to a case of mistaken identity, another man is arrested in his place; and by the relentless investigations of the dogged policeman Javert. It is not simply for himself that Valjean must stay free, however, for he has sworn to protect the baby daughter of Fantine, driven to prostitution by poverty. A compelling and compassionate view of the victims of early nineteenth-century French society, Les Miserables is a novel on an epic scale.
'One of the few indisputably great novels that can be read as breathlessly as any thriller - because that is what it is! The unrelenting pursuit of Jean Valjean by the police agent Javert, culminating in the desperate escape attempt through the sewers of Paris, is the essence of the book and the vehicle that carries the cargo of psychological, political and moral debate. Whatever Hugo tells us in the novel only possesses the terrible weight of truthfulness because this monumental work is also perhaps the greatest thriller of them all.' (Kirkus UK)

I've had a small marble cheese cutter for years, but needed a larger size for large blocks of cheese. This is the only cutter I found online the right size.
Very sturdy stainless steel wire that has a lifetime guarantee for free replacement if the wire breaks.
I had been looking for a cheese slicer that was large enough to accommodate a 5# block of cheese and this is it! Not only is it large enough but it's not too large to leave out on display. Probably the best cheese slicer I have owned. It was affordable, durable and attractive. Plus it's easy to clean and the rubber feet make it easy to use without sliding on wood, granite or stainless steel surfaces. Excellent gift idea!
After trying six other types of cheese slicers, this is the best! Actually makes perfectly straight cuts completely through the cheese because the cutting wire drops below the surface and into the slot in the cutting board. Very easy to clean both the board and the stainless steel cutting wire. Very attractive cutting board on which pre-cut cheese slices can be displayed for guests.
It works well enough but has a couple of things I don't like. First is that the groove that the wire goes into isn't very deep and the wire has some stretch to it. So even with the handle pushed all the way down, the wire is still in the cheese for a few seconds. It takes time for the wire to finish making its way through the last of the cheese. The second issue is that the wood is a little soft. Using it as a cutting board leaves marks in the wood. The cut marks are then hard to clean. I wish I had bought the marble slicer.
It will not cut a hard sharp chedar cleanly. The cutter requires an option that brings the cutting wire forward and then while pushing down you can push it back.The cleaning was difficult as the bamboo is not dishwasher safe.
The cutting line does not line up with the groove in the wood. Will wait to see
how item performs.
After 2 uses it just would not slice. i hand washed but. the cutter was not cutting at all
A good size slicer for snacks.
Does a great job!!
I purchased this chees slicer for slicing handmade soap , it works great!
This cheese slicer will slice hard and soft cheeses. I is better than the hand slicers that you can buy.
The slicer is sturdy and well made. I especially like that the cutting could be replaced if needed.
This cheese slicer cuts cheese perfectly without having to use much force. This product is a very high quality product which should give you many years of service.
I think it would be unfair to compare this to slicers costing way more. Once you get the hang of how to place the cheese so it's not too fat or skinny it does just fine. For me, it's a lot easier than using a knife..
This bamboo cheese slicer is great. Cuts easily, even soft cheeses. Love it.
The only improvement to this board would be the addition of a straight back board to keep the cheese block 90 degrees io the blade. The repalcement wire is a great addition.
junk. when used to slice does not slice straight.
Exactly what I expected based on the literature. Could not find a better product for the price.
Love my new cheese slicer, looks nice and works great!
It is just what I was looking for. Works great.

An approach of character recognition of license plate image based on multiple classifiers is proposed in this paper. For numbers and English characters, features are extracted from binary character images by ET1, DT12 and jumping. For Chinese characters, features are extracted from gray-scale character images by Gabor filters which are specially designed from statistical information. In order to access a high recognition rate, 3 classifiers are used. They are SVM, BP ANN and minimum distance classifier. All the classifiers are arranged by a structure of voting. Experiments show that the proposed method has effective performance on Chinese character image recognition.
