From: Beautilicious,
Ever arrived at a fancy dress party only to find you're the only one who hasn't made an effort, or perhaps worse, the only one who has? You look around a room full of slinky dresses and the odd pair of devil horns and feel somewhat out of place in your full on banana costume. If only you'd planned ahead...
As the 31st October approaches bars, parties and offices around the world are demanding we all don some kind of scary costume. Whether you're planning to stand out or blend in this Halloween we thought we'd make dressing up a bit easier with a few simple makeup tips. From zombie bites to nail art, we've got it all. Now all you need to do is think of a costume.
Thanks to sites like YouTube and a few ghoulish bloggers, convincing Halloween make up has never been so easy. A few years ago we wouldn't have had a clue how to make a prosthetic wound on our face but now the web is full of how-to videos detailing how to transform yourself into all manner of terrifying creations – this truly is the enlightened age. Here at Wahanda we're big fans of fashion and beauty blogger Michelle Phan and this year we've been taking notes from her Halloween makeup tutorials. Whether you're going for seductive vampire or zombie Barbie she's got professional looking makeup covered and makes it look as easy as pumpkin pie.
Before the age of technology, Halloween costumes had to be simple – which is great news for anyone looking for a last minute, low budget costume. You can't go wrong with one of these easy classics:
The cat – If you're already a fan of winged eyeliner this one's for you. Take a black liquid eyeliner and starting in the inner corner of your eye, draw a line along the upper lid finishing with a flick at the outer corner – the more elaborate the better. Take a bright pink lipstick and draw an upside triangle on the end of your nose and finish with a few eye liner whiskers on either side. Miaow.
Wicked witch – Not for the faint-hearted, the wicked witch is for anyone who wants a stand-out costume that's ready in minutes. Cover your face, neck and any other exposed body parts in a thick layer of bright green face paint. Paint lips with a black lipstick and nails with a black nail polish. Simple and scary – hey, the wicked witch was never supposed to be pretty.
Vampire –Vampires have never been so popular and there's bound to be a few lurking about this Halloween. Join the fang gang by creating a nice ghostly pallor with a layer of pale powder (or talc) on your face. Line eyes with a red eyeliner (lipliner works just as well) and apply a rusty, brown eye shadow to lids - paying particularly attention to the sockets for a hollow effect. Paint lips with a dark red lipstick, and complete the look with a set of fangs and a fake blood drip at the corner of your mouth. Fangtastic.
This year you've decided you don't have the time (or the costume) to dress up but you'd still like to show a touch of Halloween spirit. How about a set of terrifying talons, courtesy of a little spooky nail art?
Vintage ghost: Keep it chic this Halloween and opt for white nails à la Chanel S/S 2013. Then take a black nail art pen and draw eyes and a big ghostly mouth. Stylish yet spooky.
Instant claws: Bring out your inner werewolf this year by painting nails a dark shade of brown or grey then using a flesh coloured shade to paint inverted triangles on each top corner of the nail. Check out www.beautyriot.com for inspiration.
Dripping blood: Tap into this season's gothic trend with a set of Prabal Gurung inspired bloody nails. Paint nails with a clear polish then once dry either use a red nail art pen or a cocktail stick dripped in red polish to decorate the tip of the nail with drops of blood.

> Kitty, are you able to grow Edelweiss??????
I don't grow it but I suppose I could. It's hardiness is variously
reported everywhere between Zones 3 and 9. I wonder why you couldn't
grow it in Germany. The standard plant thought of as Edelweiss is
Leontopodium alpinum, but there are other species you could try.
Arrowhead carries 3.
That is one of my all time
favorite flowers, since childhood, although I've never lived anywhere that
I would
be able to grow it.....even in our part of Germany. Would see it when we
trips to the mountains though. Had a dried Edelweiss that I had for many
years, it got lost on the move to the States, unfortunately.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|7 nights
Our home is located on a private paved road and the lot size is 1.6 acres. The house in setback over 100 feet from the road and the rear yard has a cleared area for frisbee or wiffle ball or just catching the sun and relaxing.
The home has individual A/C units throughout and has nearly new stainless steel kitchen appliances. All the doors and windows have been changed to Andersen windows.
The house has a fantastic wraparound deck which is covered on one side and open for suntanning on the other side. The Weber gas grill is located on the deck so family cookouts await.
Bike paths are less than a mile away. Long Point Beach, one of the nicest most private beaches on the Vineyard is 2 miles away.
The home has 3 bedrooms and two full baths located on the first floor. The master bedroom has its own full bath with a clawfoot tub/shower combination and the 2 other bedroom share the other full bath which has a stall shower. There is also an outside shower with hot water.
The house can sleep up to 6 people or 2 people per bedroom.
There is a washer/dryer on the first floor. The 2nd floor consists of a kitchen, dining room and living room.The layout is very open with vaulted ceilings and lots of windows and sliding doors. The living room and dining room lead to the wraparound deck.
There is a gas burning oven on the 2nd floor which is great when the weather is chilly.
We have 3-4 adult bikes available.
My wife and I purchased our Marthas Vineyard dream home in 2005. We are both from NY although we have lived in Florida since 1994.
We have traveled to Marthas Vineyard since 1993 and have gone back almost every year since. It is heaven on earth as far as we are concerned.
I am a high end contractor in South Florida and as such, when we bought the house, we renovated most of it.
So come enjoy our little piece of paradise and we are sure you will have great times there just as we have.
Steven purchased this house in 2005
Marthas Vineyard is to me the most perfect place to vacation. You can be laid back in flip flops all summer or be as formal and fancy as you want.
We love where our house is located. It is a 2 minute drive to the airport and the airport 12-13 mile bike trial is 1/4 of a mile away.
We love the beach and running and the beach is a 2 mile run down a quiet road.
We love that we are a 10 minute drive away from Edgartown and all the action there but that it is very quiet and not so crowded by our house.
The huge property lends itself to barbecues, games of frisbee and wiffleball so all ages can enjoy the house.
The property also has wooded paths leading to another street behind us, so the kids will love exploring back there.
All in all we think Marthas Vineyard along with where our home is and its updated condition will be a great family vacation for all.
We chose the property because of the large area (1.6 acres) and because of the view to the backyard from the deck.
We also love the huge white clamshell driveway which leads up to the house.
The proximity to the bike paths wasreally important to us.
We also love the gas burning fireplace on those cold autumn nights.
our first impression on arrival, was what a great space the main floor is. the furnishings and accessories used, including a bookcase of recent books and a selection of board games, were just a sampling of the special touches found in this house. we really appreciated the provision of towels and bed linens for all the rooms, and found the items provided were of excellent quality, and complimented the rooms beautifully. each of the beds in the bedrooms had a lovely quilt on it as a finishing touch. the kitchen is small, but so well applianced and accessorized, it works quite well. we are always thrilled to see a gas stove! the outside shower met all of our needs, we hate showering inside when we are on the vineyard!
the deck encompasses two sides of the house, on the upper level, as the house is an upside down house with bedrooms downstairs. there were two loungers at one end, where the sun was likely to be, along with two regular chairs. on the other side of the deck there are three very comfortable rocking type wicker chairs with a small cocktail type table, a great spot for an afternoon cool drink or morning tea and coffee.
overall, the house had a great feeling, much like being in a really nice B&B, without the breakfast service!
location wise, the house is 6/10 of a mile from barnes road, off of the edgartown/west tisbury road. tricky if the traffic is tough, but not too bad to negotiate. the road is well paved, and the oyster shell drive is easy to negotiate. the airport is nearby, but we didn't find it too bothersome, and actually got to see some of the planes for the presidential escort arriving and departing.
Rachel actually met us at the house, which was potentially going to be a problem for us, because we had a late ferry, but she was able to accommodate us even when we were able to get on an earlier ferry!
Our House is located less than 1 mile from the main airport bike path which leads to all the main towns of Marthas Vineyard. We are 2 miles from Long Point Beach which is on the Atlantic Ocean. West Tisbury is about equidistant from Edgartown, Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven so access to each by car is about a 10-15 minute drive by car. There are great hiking and walking trails less than 1 mile from the home.

Pre-show notes:
Major Thing #1: I finally have a wrestling podcast! I promised it for months, but now it's finally here, and if you didn't listen to episode 1 of With Spandex featuring special bloody guest Rachel Summerlyn, please do that now. We'll be up on iTunes as soon as we have a second episode.
Major Thing #2: Unbelievably, next Monday night I will be making my live comedy debut as comedian Chris Trew and I tackle the Monday Night Raw Watch Party, which is more or less THE BEST AND WORST OF WWE RAW LIVE. We're gonna play the show on the big screen, mute it, make a few jokes and have some local improv groups handle the commercials. It's going to be a blast and it's free, so if you live anywhere near Austin or have a disposable income that lets you fly around on a whim, come hang out with us and support our braver efforts. I'll give you a hug upon request. I'm also gonna be appearing at The New Movement's show on the following Wednesday night, so be there too.
– Don't be afraid to leave a comment on this report. We've build a great community of intelligent, funny wrestling fans and you should be a part of it, because seriously, you aren't gonna find it anywhere else.
– Follow us on Twitter @withleather, follow me personally @MrBrandonStroud and like us on Facebook.
– Biggest thanks again to Casey/THESTINGER for helping me out with gifs and pictures. Be sure to visit his gifs Tumblr for the stuff I didn't use.
Please to enjoy the Best and Worst Of WWE Raw for April 16, 2012. We're gonna have fun with it this week.
Best: Meeting People Who Read My Column (And I Swear This Has A Point)
I don't think I'll ever get used to people knowing who I am.
I spent Sunday afternoon at the Mohawk on Red River for Anarchy Championship Wrestling's "Peace, Love & Anarchy 2012" (highlighted by psychological balcony dives, a leprechaun being accidentally beheaded and this spectacular photo of Rachel Summerlyn in a With Leather t-shirt), and as we were getting ready to leave I was stopped by a guy who reads the column. "You're Brandon, right?"
yes i am that ugly nerd who writes on the internet how are you
His name was Jeff, and both he and his friend Jeff (two Jeffs) are fans of The Best And Worst Of Raw. They were nice guys, but the reason I'm including a mention of the meeting here is because of the advice he gave me — to try to love what I'm watching, because constant negativity isn't fun to read. "Six straight weeks of Triple H sucks" was what he mentioned.
It's great advice, and not something I haven't heard before. The column was started as sort of a reprieve from the stuff you can read everywhere else, and as true as my "the writing can only be as positive as the show is good" counterpoint may be, I'm going to try harder to approach the shows with positivity, lest I lower myself to discussing who is or isn't being pushed and who's in "the doghouse".
And before I do that, here is a completely unsubstantiated piece of newz I'd like for you to tell your friends and get reposted on every dirt sheet you can find: NXT Diva Maxine is in the doghouse because Kelly Kelly thinks she's too pretty and doesn't want to lose her spot. COPY PASTE.Subscribe to UPROXX
Best: The Easy Positivity Of CM Punk Vs. Mark Henry
Anyway, it's not hard to be positive when Raw features a couple of great matches, including one right at the stop of the show between CM Punk and Mark Henry. Minor complaints include:
1. WWE Championship matches should probably go at the end of the show, especially if your announced main-event is John Cena vs. Alex Riley's silhouette for no raisin
2. If you introduce the "the WWE Championship hasn't changed hands on Raw in over a year!" fact, you've got to follow through with the WWE Championship changing hands on Raw
3. Mark Henry should have a 0% chance of losing matches that involve him not only being Mark Henry, but being able to use weapons. He should just launch cars at dudes until they're dead.
But on the bright side, the no disqualification/no count-out stipulation adds a much more realistic way than normal for CM Punk to get a pinfall on Mark Henry. If Mark Henry accidentally runs face first into metal and then has a 200 pound guy jump from a high place and land on him with that same piece of metal, sure, as much as I'd like for Henry to stand up and wrap the metal around the 200 pound guy's head and fat-slam him into the Earth, I can buy that keeping him down for three. Punk grazing his head with one of those LOOK HOW HIGH I CAN KICK shots and Henry selling it like he's Frankenstein falling backwads, not so much.
I also like that there was actually some terror in this match … Punk seemed like he was fighting from his knees even when he wasn't, and it was a nice contrast from those Viscera-style matches Raw loves to do where they bring out the big fat monster guy and he loses in like two minutes to Jeff Hardy, and next week we're supposed to be scared again. Keep Mark Henry scary, and keep him only losing due to prop malfunction.
Best: Thank God CM Punk Had The Simple Excuse For Jericho's Dumb Thing
WWE.com put up an announcement early in the day about how Chris Jericho had surveillance footage or hired dick info or whatever about CM Punk leaving an England-area pub. I was worried that they were gonna have Punk do that thing he did when Jericho revealed that Punk's parents weren't married when they gave birth to him where he got SUPER PISSED ABOUT IT even though most people would've just said "So? Who cares?" and moved on. I was worried that Punk was going to get indignant about having NOT been at a bar and then the footage is shown and he's HUMILIATED~.
The route they went was much better: CM Punk astutely noting that walking into a place that serves alcohol doesn't contractually obligate you to drink alcohol. Hell, I don't drink and I spent five hours at a bar on Sunday. That's how friendship and activities and f**king commerce work, Jericho.
Next week Jericho should show up with convenience store footage of Punk accidentally opening the cooler door with the beer in it, seeing that it's beer instead of Pepsi and calmly closing it. YOU SHOP HERE BECAUSE IT'S CLOSE TO YOUR HOUSE AND YOUR DAD USED TO BUY GAS, DIDN'T HE PUNK
Worst: This Is Not My Beautiful R-Truth
Positives about R-Truth being Sherlock Holmes because "England" and trying to find Teddy Long a new job: it had a satisfying ending (Teddy Long does not get a new job) and I hope the weird spy music they played in the background while R-Truth was looking at sh*t through a magnifying glass is the same one that plays when Aksana investigates.
That being said … yeah, this isn't the R-Truth I like. The R-Truth I like is kind of harmful in his insanity, the kind of guy who doesn't dress up like a detective to make the kids laugh but desperately fears that the briefcase he's trying to grab may be full of spiders. The guy who has brain damage because his grandmother made stew out of household pests and forced it on him. The kind of guy who thought Road Dogg was cool for like six whole months. That guy would only appear from behind a briefcase to confuse Hornswoggle if he was gonna follow it up by spinning a dozen times and kicking him in the face.
Worst: Jerry Lawler Is Suddenly A Soccer Expert
Not to put too many bad things in a row into the positivity column, but the very very worst part of Raw (and, in a way, the very best part) was Jerry "The King" Lawler suddenly becoming a walking soccer encyclopedia when Santino Marella came out to do his soccer jersey gag. In my brain, it was the opposite of Michael Cole knowing how many dinosaurs were discovered in England and comparing Brodus Clay to an Iguanodon.
"Chelsea? Come on, Santino, that's not going to work here! In London! That's not the team they like from sports! Oh no, Manchester United?? You're in London! London England! They don't like midfielder Luis Antonio Valencia here at all!"
Although Lawler does get a tiny best for saying "lon-don" like Paul Rudd in Forgetting Sarah Marshall.
Best: David Otunga's Reinvention Of The Lateral Press
What Happened: David Otunga was going to cover Santino, and Santino would avoid the three count by putting his foot on the ropes. Otunga dropped down and realized he was gonna be in the way of Santino's leg, so as to not f**k up the finish he moved to the other side.
What We Saw: hup, hold on, whoops, wait, no, I got it, hold on
hup, hold on
Alternate Theory: He had so much baby oil on his chest he couldn't make a cover without slipping around like that. Seriously, look at this:
The inside of that cape has got to be the grossest thing ever. When it hits the stage it should slither away like a snake.
And Speaking Of Snakes: Understanding The Physics Of The Cobra
This has been bugging me for a while. The obvious talking point is that Santino's putting a sock on his hand and jabbing you with it, so it's dumb that it incapacitates you completely and you have to lose if it touches you. It's very similar to Scotty 2 Hotty's The Worm (which is a one-handed bulldog that keeps you down for a minute and a half until he can chop you somewhere on your torso and you're dead) or The Rock's People's Elbow (a spinebuster keeps you down for a 200-count, but Rock only covers you when he's danced around a little and dropped an elbow to your lovehandles with every ounce of force going into making his back hit the mat as hard as possible), but even those have MOVES before them. Scotty bulldogs and chops you, Rock spinebusters you and elbows you. Santino is literally just putting a sock on his hand and poking you with it.
So I've decided to figure it out, and here's my theory. It's been established in the past that by creating (or "conjuring") The Cobra with his hand jive, Santino's arm, sock or no sock, becomes akin to a living cobra. It can threaten people or, as we've seen several times in the past, attack people on its own.
Now, if a snake hits you as hard as it can with its nose in a jabbing motion, it's not going to hurt you very much. A snake weighs like four pounds or something and can't get any real momentum going. It CAN bite you and poison you with a similar motion, so instead of the Cobra hurting you like a martial arts strike, the Cobra strike (as a magical conjuration) takes on properties that deliver instant poison damage and paralysis. That's why guys don't sell the Cobra by jumping backwards and flipping, they just go stiff and fall backwards. Right? That has to be right.
If it isn't, I will consult my "how does this snake arm work" book of notes and we'll reconvene next week.
Best: Densetsu No Lord Tensai
Wait, is it Ten-SAY? My Japanese is terrible, I learned everything I can say from 'Excel Saga'. I can say "yes" and "no", "where are the bathrooms" and "hail Il Palazzo".
Anyway, Lord Tensai having Josh Mathews interrupted instantly by his follower so he can talk about fear and speak Japanese like Mola Ram is amazing. He should spit on his hand and use it to rip out Josh's heart.
Worst: I Think These Prototype Commercials May Have Misinterpreted 'Hurt'
I'm guessing Trent Reznor didn't write this melancholy song about the differences between society and self-harm with an image in mind of racially non-specific dudes attacking each other with sword hands. I wish game companies cared more about making games that work and are fun and less on booth babez and epic commercials.
Ah well, it's still better than that creepy ass baby telling me I've always wanted the biggest, baddest beard. You don't know me, sexually-active baby with a driver's license.

Globally, major birth defects impact the morbidity and mortality of millions of children annually. Estimates suggest that only about one-third of defects that occur can be attributed to known environmental (broadly defined) or genetic factors. To advance the knowledge of risk factors associated with major birth defects, this application proposes to extend and expand the Iowa Center for Birth Defects Research and Prevention (IA_CBDRP) at The University of Iowa (UI). The IA_CBDRP is a collaborative effort between the Iowa Registry for Congenital and Inherited Disorders (IRCID) and investigators in the UI Colleges of Public Health, Medicine, and Pharmacy. For over 25 years, the IRCID has been a model birth defects surveillance system, and for over 20 years, UI investigators have made substantial contributions to birth defects epidemiology in areas ranging from methods development to identification of gene-environment interaction effects for specific defects. In addition, Iowa is well-suited as a sentinel state to examine risks associated with rural exposures and residences that might adversely impact fetal development, particularly pesticides, nitrates in drinking water, and emerging zoonotic infections. Exploration of these risk factors will have important public health significance not only for Iowans, but also nationally. For the proposed application, the overall goals of the IA_CBDRP will be to: 1) support the continuance and expansion of epidemiologic research capability through participation in the National Birth Defects Prevention Study (NBDPS) and 2) utilize, implement, and evaluate birth defects surveillance data for studies of environmental exposures, genetic factors, and their potential interaction effects. To accomplish these goals, the IA_CBDRP proposes to: 1) conduct ongoing data collection activities for the NBDPS, including subject ascertainment, maternal telephone interviews, and buccal sample collection;2) build on pilot tested approaches to evaluate surveillance methodology and current DNA collection methods and also explore alternative methods of sample collection;3) continue to evaluate follow-up questionnaires for selected exposures through local research studies with CBDRP investigators that can be expanded to all CBDRPs;and 4) expand analysis of local and pooled data to generate scientific presentations and publications and disseminate surveillance data in local and national reports. In implementing these aims, the IA_CBDRP proposes to continue its leadership role in examining behavioral, environmental, occupational, and genetic factors, expand its role in investigations of medications, infections, and nutritional factors, and continue its leadership role in methodologic studies. The expertise in the IA_CBDRP along with available UI and State of Iowa infrastructure will permit comprehensive examination of risks associated with prevalent environmental exposures, the contribution of genetic variation to such risks, as well as to examine potential, emerging risk factors for major birth defects. Findings generated will be used for family education, improvements in treatment, and application of prevention strategies.
Relevant to Public Health The Iowa Center for Birth Defects Research and Prevention will extend and expand its leadership role in the investigation of environmental and genetic factors for major birth defects. This research will provide important insights into our understanding of modifiable factors to prevent or reduce the adverse consequences of major birth defects. Findings will be shared with other scientists and with professionals developing appropriate prevention interventions and resources for families affected by major birth defects.

Bridging The Expectation Gaps In Corporate Giving To Improve Communication Gap Between NPOs And Corporations
In support of the NVPC in nurturing corporate giving in Singapore, Spire Research and Consulting has undertaken a pro-bono study on corporate giving.
Gurgaon, Haryana, India., June 17, 2014 - (PressReleasePoint) -
In support of the National Volunteer and Philanthropy Centre (NVPC) in nurturing corporate giving in Singapore, Spire Research and Consulting has undertaken a pro-bono study on corporate giving. The objective of this study was to understand the extent of misalignment in expectations between corporations and not-for-profit organizations (NPOs) in Singapore in regards to corporate giving.
The Spire study on corporate giving found that corporations and NPOs have different objectives when engaging in corporate giving. As a result, there are also differences in the preferred types of corporate giving. While corporations prefer to contribute in terms of employee volunteering, most NPOs would prefer to receive cash donations.
Secondly, the current commonly used channels need improvement to enhance communication between NPOs and corporations. While referrals are regarded as effective methods, their effectiveness is limited to sharing contact information. As such, there is a need for a specifically designed common platform for corporations and NPOs to share information and engage each other with the goal of corporate giving.
Thirdly, the manpower planning for corporate giving differs across organizations. While some corporations classify the corporate giving role under an existing business function, other corporations regard CSR as a dedicated function. Corporations that want to place a greater focus on corporate giving are encouraged to set up a specific function for this purpose.
Another commonly found driver of volunteering activities among corporations is employee volunteering committees. These committees usually comprise employees who are passionate about volunteerism, who strengthen the volunteerism and philanthropic culture within the corporation.
Finally, most of the expectation gaps are caused by organizations failing to identify partners who share similar expectations in corporate giving. This is because the current channels do not allow organizations to identify in advance the expectations and needs of their potential partners. Such information is typically not readily available until NPOs and corporations have already begun working together. As such, it is essential to have a common platform which allows organizations to express their expectations and needs relating to corporate giving.

How to Be a TudorPosted: January 20, 2017 Filed under: Book Reviews Leave a comment
How to Be a Tudor by Ruth Goodman
I enjoy reading about daily life in other times and places, learning about how ordinary people lived, worked, and ate, but without the wars, politics, and royalty that fill many history textbooks. Ruth Goodman is a historian and a re-enactor, and spent months living like a Tudor for the British television series Tudor Monastery Farm, and worked as an advisor for the Wolf Hall miniseries. She also did a lot of research, looking at wills and household inventories of the Tudor era, as well as researching homes, furniture, food, and clothing. I enjoyed the descriptions of making cheese, bread, and ale, and what it was like to sleep on a rush strewn floor or a rope-strung bed with a mattress and bed curtains. Hour by hour, she goes through the activities of life, from sleeping, waking, bathing (or not), dressing, work including apprenticeships, school, religion, and social life, as well as food and drink. Ploughing and tending the fields she learned by doing, as well as different dance styles, making and caring for elaborate ruffs, and more. Fans of the Tudors, Wolf Hall, or history buffs are sure to enjoy, and readers will learn whether it's more important to change your linen undergarments or to take a bath. A few recipes are included.
World of the Five Gods NovellasPosted: January 16, 2017 Filed under: Book Reviews | Tags: fantasy Leave a comment
I enjoyed these three fantasy novellas, set in the World of the Five Gods. The first book in the loosely connected series is The Curse of Chalion, but the Penric novellas are a good place to start.
Penric's Demon
Lord Penric is the younger son of a minor noble, and is on the way to his betrothal to a cheesemaker's daughter when he stops to help an elderly lady who's fallen ill. She is a temple divine and when she dies, her demon unexpectedly transfers to Penric. Penric names the demon Desdemona, and her previous hosts, all female, tell him amazing stories. No one expects the demon to be allowed to stay with young, untrained Penric, except the reader. Penric has always wanted to go to university, and is happy to get the education he needs for his new station in life, and gradually learns to cope with the demon.
Penric and the Shaman
Several years later, Penric's education is complete, and he is sent on a mission to help locate Inglis, a runaway shaman accused of murder. There are magical dogs, an avalanche, and adventures in the mountains and a small town. This is the shortest of the novellas. Penric is learning to use Desdemona's powers when necessary, but there are consequences, so he must get creative.
In Penric's Mission, Penric is an agent for the Duke of Adria. He is travelling by sea to Cedonia, home of an earlier host of Desdemona, to meet with a young general. Instead, Penric is imprisoned, and General Arisaydia is arrested and badly injured. Using Desdemona's skills, Penric escapes, and finds that the general has been released to the care of his widowed sister, Nikys. Penric uses his healing skills, and the trio have a cross country adventure escaping their enemies, and Penric gets to battle another wizard. This story was great fun, and I liked the possibility of a future romance with Nikys. So far, Penric's Mission is only available as an ebook.
The Spy Who Came In from the ColdPosted: January 12, 2017 Filed under: 50th Anniversary, Book Reviews | Tags: thriller 2 Comments
The Spy Who Came In from the Cold by John Le Carré
For a book in which only the first and last chapters are action scenes, this award-winning spy novel has a big impact. Alec Leamas, 50, has just lost his last operative from East Berlin, and is called home by MI6 to London. He is given the option of retirement or one last revenge mission, to take down Mundt, who had his operatives killed. Deep under cover, Leamas takes to drink, works in a psychic library, has an affair with coworker Liz, punches a grocer, and ends up in jail. Afterward, he pretends to defect and spill his secrets for $15,000. Handed on from contact to contact, he tells all in Holland, then is sent with Fiedler to East Berlin. He is arrested, beaten up, then asked to testify against Mundt, who'd ordered his arrest. But MI6 has slipped up, contacting Liz, who just happens to be a communist, and paying Leamas' outstanding bills. Twist after plot twist, with lots of suspense and deceit, neither the reader nor Leamas are sure in the end which is the right side. First published in the U.S. in 1964, awarded the Edgar and the Gold Dagger, The Spy Who Came In from the Cold was made into a 1965 movie with Richard Burton as Leamas that also won an Edgar. This year, a TV mini-series based on the book will be released. Le Carré, writing under a pseudonym, taught at Eton before spending five years with the British Foreign Service, and has just published a memoir, The Pigeon Tunnel. This very bleak look at the Cold War is still a terrific read.
The Translation of LovePosted: January 8, 2017 Filed under: Book Reviews | Tags: historical fiction, Japan, World War II Leave a comment
The Translation of Love by Lynne Kutsukake
An elegantly written first novel about ordinary people struggling to find their new normal after the war in 1947 Tokyo. This book is narrated by several people starting over, all connected by two school girls, Aya Shimamura and Fumi Tanaka. Fumi, whose father used to run a small bookshop, misses her older sister Sumiko, and wants Aya's help in finding her. Sumiko is a dance hall girl, who has been bringing extra food and money home to the family. Aya is Japanese Canadian. She spent the war in a Canadian internment camp, and as her family is no longer welcome in Vancouver, they've returned to Japan. Their teacher Kondo moonlights as a letter writer for young Japanese women trying to stay in contact with their American GI boyfriends. Matt Matsumoto, Japanese American, is working with the American Army of Occupation, where he translates letters sent to General MacArthur. Aya and Fumi get lost one night, and Aya's father asks Kondo to help find them. The author is a Japanese Canadian librarian, and she was inspired by a book of actual letters sent to General MacArthur by the Japanese people. Appealing characters, a truly unique setting, and a poignant, heartwarming plot made me sorry to finish this book.
The Long Way to a Small, Angry PlanetPosted: January 4, 2017 Filed under: Book Reviews | Tags: science fiction, space opera Leave a comment
The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers
The reader meets the eclectic crew of the spaceship Wayfarer through the eyes of new records clerk Rosemary Harper, who's always lived on Mars. Wayfarer tunnels through space to anchor new wormholes, and the crew spend a lot of time together, except for the aging navigator pair and the algae tech, who's a workaholic. This is an engaging story, like a lighter Firefly or Voyager episode, which I really enjoyed reading. The crew have adventures and help save the day, but it's really about getting to know the appealing human, alien, and artificial intelligence personalities on the ship. I'm looking forward to reading A Closed and Common Orbit, to be published in March.
The Corner ShopPosted: December 31, 2016 Filed under: 50th Anniversary, Book Reviews | Tags: England, France, gentle read Leave a comment
The Corner Shop by Elizabeth Cadell
When Lucille Abbey travels to Hampshire to find out why three of her best employees have left the job of private secretary to Professor Hallam, she finds that the cottage is at the top of a steep hill, lacks basic amenities, and that the professor is quite unreasonable. Lucille can handle the job, the cottage, and the professor, but is soon off to Paris for a "vacation", running her aunt's small shop while she's away. It becomes apparent that Lucille's aunt is dishonest, and acquaintances from London and Hampshire keep turning up in Paris. A charming, pleasant read, with some mystery and a little romance. This book was published in 1967, and is a bit dated. Why am I reading and reviewing it now? I have enjoyed other books by Elizabeth Cadell in the past, but I'm currently looking to read and review books that were popular 50 years ago, as the Woodridge Public Library is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2017. Information on special events can be found on the library's website. The library owns 15 novels by Elizabeth Cadell, and she's always a good choice if you're looking for a light, gentle read.
Happy New Year!

Stone curlews dying in cold spring
11 April 2013 Last updated at 11:38 BST
One of the UK's rarest birds is being put at further risk by the cold spring, the RSPB has said.
The bodies of five underweight stone curlews have been discovered in fields in Norfolk and Suffolk over the past few days.
The weather is also hampering the barn owls' ability to hunt.
The RSPB said there were about 400 pairs of stone curlews in the UK.

text: Tokyo stocks opened 0.45 percent higher on Thursday as the yen\'s drop against other currencies offset negative sentiment over an overnight plunge in New York shares. The Nikkei 225 index at the Tokyo Stock Exchange was up 39.09 points at 8,703.82 at the start. The weaker yen should outweigh sharp weakness shown in overseas bourses on the back of rekindled jitters over the US \"fiscal cliff\" of spending cuts and tax hikes at year-end and the stalled negotiations to solve it, brokers said. \"The yen\'s sudden break, combined with fundamentally cheap Japan share valuations should allow the market to edge up initially, and then stabilise by the afternoon,\" said Hiroichi Nishi, general manager of equities at SMBC Nikko Securities. A persistently high yen in recent times has made manufacturers\' products less competitive overseas. The euro bought $1.2730 and 102.11 yen in early Asian trade compared with $1.2734 and 102.19 yen in New York late Wednesday. The dollar was at 80.20 yen against 80.23 yen. The Dow Jones Industrial Average tumbled 1.45 percent to 12,570.95, its lowest close since June 26, as President Barack Obama challenged Republicans to accept tax increases for the wealthy in a deal to avert the fiscal cliff.

This review is from: HooToo HT-UH002 SuperSpeed USB 3.0 4-Port Hub, 5V/2A Power Adapter, and USB Data Cable
Pros: It actually fixed a problem I was having with my laptop and an external hard drive. Previously it would disconnect several times per minute (suspected power issue), but with the hub and the AC adapter plugged in it works great.
Says it won't work with standalone chargers, but it charges my G930 headset which does use a standalone charger. (in the documentation it specifically references apple products, and I have none of those to test, so I can't say about those)
Charges and connects to my Samsung for G3.
Stuff that doesn't matter: Great packaging and documentation, solid aluminum case, bright LEDs, thick cables. Small, perfect size.
Cons: Will cause wireless devices immediately next to the port it is plugged into to cease working properly, as noted in the documentation. My G930 headset dongle wouldn't connect because it was in the port right next to it. I moved it one port away and it works again, not a big deal, but something to be aware of.
Short cable, doesn't completely wrap around my laptop, which isn't a huge issue, still works. I would like to have it plugged in on one side and sit on the other side, and it does, but it doesn't come as far forward as I'd like. An extra foot would be perfect.
Other Thoughts: Running Linux Mint 17 64bit.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: ADATA 32GB S102 Pro Advanced USB 3.0 Flash Drive, Speed Up to 100MB/s (AS102P-32G-RGY)

Cons: Can't think of any.
Other Thoughts: Used it to make a Linux live USB. No issues.READ FULL REVIEW

Here is a video I put together from the last hill climb of the season and before the engine gave up! It's the mighty Black Pearl, Car 01 from the Rust 2 Rome car rally. There is really no shame to it as it's done many track days, hill climbs and three trips to Rome and back! For those interested it's a later 6.0 V12, standard internals, larger throttle bodies, full equal length tubular Exhaust, full race camshafts, aftermarket ecu and ignition, lightened clutch and pulleys, using a Getrag manual box with a racing clutch, 3.54 diff and a whole load of suspension modifications too! Hope you enjoy the sound in the video :-)

This review is from: Tenda W1800R Wireless AC1750 Dual Band Gigabit Router IEEE 802.11ac, IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n
Pros: Running now for almost three months flawlessly. At the very beginning I immediately flashed Shibby's Tomato firmware which is super stable with lots of nice features. Range is great but had no chance to test AC due to a lack of clients.
Thought the router had an issue lately since I couldn't connect to it wirelessly anymore. Found out this was not a router issue at all but a problem with Canon's EOS Utility that flooded my network.
Highest priority in a router for me is reliability which so far is the case. Second is good throughput and availability of freely available firmware.
Cons: None, not even the fact that the case is white ;-)
Other Thoughts: I bought this during the end of February shell shocker deal for not even eighty. Excellent deal. Current price of two and half of this is ridiculously high and I would never pay that.READ FULL REVIEW
