Before seeking pleasure in the latest novel from the still-young – 33 – writer whose debut, The Drowning People, and the advance he received for it, ended up the subject of Newsnight in 1999, you should probably know that it ends (plot-boiler alert...) with three of the most frustrating words in literature: "To be continued".
There would be no problem with this were the fact mentioned in the title ("Part One" would have been nice) or anywhere else. But it isn't, and this can't help but leave the unsuspecting reader feeling cheated.
Which is not to say that Mason's fifth book is without its saucy satisfactions. It tells the story of Piet Barol, the son of a petty bureaucrat in the Dutch university town of Leiden. Fortunately for Piet, to enable him to rise above his beginnings, his late mother, a singing teacher, trained him to appreciate the finer things in life: art, music, food, sex etc. Piet has learnt his lessons well and by the time he is 24 in 1907, he is ready to take up the position of tutor in the home of the cultivated and wealthy Vermeulen-Sickerts, in the Gilded Curve of belle époque Amsterdam.
Piet is a schemer, whose physical attraction to both sexes he has no qualms using to his advantage. But will his ends be best served by seducing the lady of the house, Jacobina, or one of her It-girl daughters, Constance and Louisa? Further to that, can he cure the Vermeulen-Sickerts' only son, Egbert, of the strange affliction that makes him unable to leave the house?
Mason tells his story with humour, charm, fine attention to detail and a healthy dose of eroticism. Much of the dialogue is sparkling and there are scenes which remind you why Mason was considered such an explosive talent at 19. But there are also signs of lazy editing: does a bath really need to be "filled very full"? And why, just a few paragraphs after a character's misery has "fossilised into rage" is his self-loathing allowed to "coagulate into hatred"?
With its Perfume-like atmosphere and anti-hero, History of a Pleasure Seeker is a novel that, ultimately, promises more than it delivers. Its final section, when Barol has left the Vermeulen-Sickerts' home, allows the novel's most interesting characters to slip through the author's fingers, leaving readers alone with a man they have not been primed to care about.
To be continued? Perhaps the reason the publishers haven't flagged it up anywhere is that they, and Mason, would do well to wait and see.Reuse content

Jeri Mann stopped at a 7-Eleven Downtown this morning to pick up coffee, donuts and a chance at becoming a multimillionaire overnight.
"Everyone's playing it, so why not?" the 67-year-old retired South Side resident said she told herself after a workout at the YMCA.
She rarely plays the lottery, but with a $550 million jackpot on the line, she did today.
Powerball has been the biggest game in town -- and throughout the 42 states, plus Washington, D.C. and the U.S. Virgin Islands, where the lottery is held -- in the last few hours and days, with millions putting in their bid to win the second-largest lottery jackpot in U.S. history.
That jackpot number -- which jumped to $550 million this afternoon -- was enough to persuade Ms. Mann to play her hand.
"I very seldom, if ever, play the lottery, but I figured what the heck, you know, for $2, I'll try it," she said.
She had lots of company, with employees at stores selling lottery tickets Downtown and on the South Side reporting a steady stream of customers since Sunday.
In Pennsylvania, there was $64 million in Powerball and Powerplay sales through noon Tuesday, with sales volume coming in at $6,700 per minute around mid-day Tuesday, according to the Pennsylvania Lottery.
The jackpot has gotten so big because the Powerball has gone without a winner through 15 consecutive drawings held since Oct. 6, but Powerball officials said there is a 75 percent chance that the winning combinations will be chosen at the 11 p.m. drawing tonight.
The odds of winning are 1 in 175 million, but Paul Woods, 63, of the North Side, thinks one of the three tickets he purchased at Liberty News, Downtown, this morning could be the winner.
"You gotta be optimistic," he said.
He's beaten the odds before. He fought in the Vietnam War, and in 1979, he won $15,000 in a lottery game. Back then, as he remembers, the odds of winning that lottery game were 1 in 20,000.
A $2 lottery ticket might not yield a fortune, but it will buy a few hours of daydreaming about how that money could transform a life, and Mr. Woods has thought about what he'd do with his winnings, which would be $360.2 million before taxes if he took the cash option rather than the $550 million annuity.
He'd donate the money to charity, especially to cancer groups, since that's what his mother died from. He'd open a place for homeless veterans to stay, then use the rest to take care of his children and grandchildren.
His chances tonight may be slim, but he still put down $6 for three tickets.
"You can't win it if you ain't in it," he said. "And it couldn't happen to a nicer guy."mobilehome - homepage - neigh_city - region

Dogs are then ready to be dried, by firstly using the Blaster 2000, which not only removes water from the coat, but also helps to blow out any unwanted dead coat, it also gives your dog's skin a massage along the way!!!

To ensure your pup has a good experience the first time it is groomed, we recommend that you bring it to the hotel for advice on how you can groom at home, this ensures your dog's coat does not become matted, causing pain when we style it.

The grounds are beautiful kept, the staff does not know much information, the pool closes at 6pm, you have to put a deposit for kitchen stuff and linens, not many jacks in the bedrooms, no lockers in room. Pretty on the outside but nothing out standing on the inside. Ill stay at another hostel for just the same ordeal and cheaper. I do recommend it for the quietness and cleaness if that is what you are after, but other hostels are quiet too and just as good.
This review is the subjective opinion of a TravelPod member and not of TravelPod.com.
Stayed for 5 days and had a great time. It's like a hotel for backpackers - clean, cheap snacks and drinks, friendly staff and just a stone's throw from Cable Beach. The only snag is that it's a bit out of town, but apart from that it comes highly recommended!

Marketing and Business Growth Tools
You don't need us to tell you that retailing has changed significantly in recent years. From the growth of ecommerce to the recent recession, the high street has changed forever.
That said, as customers are drawn towards a more unique shopping experience, independent retail outlets have an opportunity to thrive. Customers don't want another big supermarket where you can get it all! Instead, they are drawn increasingly to niche and specialist outlets that offer expertise, personality, and interesting products.

no gardening here..... it is 15 degrees out and add the wind chill makes it
feel like 4 degrees. Snow covered and more expected over the weekend. It's
winter time here.
Trying to get ready for the holidays- working on getting both houses cleaned
and decorated.
I have downscaled Xmas buying and by next year I plan on not doing any
shopping! Family is doing a white elephant DVD grab bag exchange this year so
that really cut the list down.

Out in the garden? Hibernating? Lettuce and radishes are at the eating
stage here. Peas are growing strong. Several mahonias have buds ready
to pop. Even have one last rose. Making plans to cut back the banana
plants soon and use their leaves to help make tamales. Bare root fruit
trees will be available in a couple of weeks. I finally decided to get
a plum, not a pluot. I just don't have room for 2 trees, and Santa Rosa
plums don't need a pollinator.
What is happening in the rest of your gardens?

The 52 acres at Blackwell Court along with indoor accommodation
offers so much, beautiful camping, a splendid Manor House, Tented Villages and over 20 adventurous activities.
The leading Outdoor Activity, Camping and Residential Centre in the Midlands. Take a look at our wide range of fun activities, camping & more!
offers so much, beautiful camping, a splendid Manor House, Tented Villages and over 20 adventurous activities.
that provides a perfect setting for traditional camps along with a wide range of land and water activity bases to enjoy.
An amazing weekend for our Scout Group Camp due to the great facilities and awesome staff at Blackwell Adventure, which made the work of the leaders and helpers so easy. The centre is very customer focused and offered a wide range of accommodation and activities suitable for all ages from 6 to adult. The admin staff were very helpful and supportive in the planning stage of the event, offering useful suggestions and advice for the programme and catering. Then on arrival we were given a very friendly welcome which continued throughout the weekend. The instructors were so impressive, not only in the way they lead the activities but how they support the young people taking part. I would heartily recommend Blackwell Adventure for an great weekend.
All the group thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The staff are so helpful and willing to go that extra mile to assist everyone achieve things they didn\'t think they could manage. We particularly like the privacy of the Pikes Pool camping site and it\'s activities. Not too far to walk to the main site. 10-12th July 2015
We Camped As A Group (Cubs, Scouts, Explorers) Over An Extremely Soggy Jubilee Weekend And Cannot Fault The Site Staff Or Facilities. Despite The Mud We Were Very Well Looked After, And Able To Dry Off Both The Children And Our Wet Belongings If We Needed To! Special Mention To Activity Instructors Who Were Equally Brilliant In The Rain, And To Sean Who Helped Us When One Of Our Leaders Needed To Be Taken To Hospital. This Is Our Local Activity Centre So We Visit Often And Always Have A Positive Experience. Highly Recommended.
Thank you for such a great experience you provided both the students, John and myself. Communication has been excellent pre and post the residential trip to Blackwell.
Your course leaders were also great, they worked well with our students and have helped them develop new skills that will assist in their GCSE PE course.
Blackwell is certainly a residential trip the PE department can use again.
Just Come Back From A Rather Wet Camp At Blackwell Court, However We All Had A Great Time. Staff And Instructors Were All Great And Really Helpful And Give Brilliant Service With A Smile. All The Guides Enjoyed The Activities And Are Already Planning Which Ones They Are Going To Do Next Year. We Will Be Back Again. 10 Camps Here In The Last 15 Years.
Blackwell Adventure Exceeded My Expectations When I Went On My Pathfinder/Scout Camp! The Staff Were So Friendly And Funny. Their Sense Of Humour Was Second To None. The Campsite Was Great. The Activities Were Fantastic And I Had So Much Fun Doing Them. I Would Recommend This Campsite To Anyone!! Thank You Blackwell Adventure For Being Amazing!!!!

As a MIDI control surface for you DJ software, the DJ Console Rmx offers a dizzying amount of controls and plenty of flexibility. Because the Hercules DJ Console Rmx works with your computer using MIDI protocol, it's broadly compatible with a range of music software. Unfortunately, without hardware, MIDI output connections, or the ability to power the Hercules DJ Console Rmx independently from your computer, there's no easy way to use the console with other MIDI-compatible hardware. We were also a little disappointed that the Hercules DJ Console Rmx won't plug-and-play right out of the box, but instead requires drivers to be installed for either Mac or PC use.
All the inputs, outputs, faders and knobs in the world won't help you if the software you're using isn't up for the task. Unfortunately, the stripped-down edition of the VirtualDJ software bundled with the Hercules DJ Console Rmx looks and performs like the ugly sibling to the Torq LE software included with the M-Audio Torq Mixlab we tested last year. The software offers two decks outfitted with EQ, effects, pitch and gain control, along with a crossfader for seamlessly transitioning between songs. A window on the top half of the software allows you to view color-coded waveforms of the songs loaded into each of the two decks, which can be scrubbed through and cued using either your mouse or the large hardware jog wheels on the Rmx console.
Aside from one quirk where deck gain controls default back to unity level every time you load a new track, the VirtualDJ software works as promised. If you really want to take advantage of this console's potential, however, we recommend spending extra money on a software upgrade. A button in the top corner of the software links to an upgrade path to the professional version of VirtualDJ ($149), which offers expanded features and a more attractive design. For around $99, Mac users have the option to use DJ-1800 software, which offers integrated hardware compatibility. Other popular Mac/PC DJ software such as Native Instruments Traktor or PCDJ are also compatible, but they currently lack the MIDI control surface support necessary for the DJ Console Rmx's buttons to illuminate.
The sound-quality of the Hercules DJ Console Rmx is clean and lively. Adjustments for sound quality, output gain, jog wheel sensitivity, and buffer/latency amount are made on your computer using an intuitive software control panel. The EQ quality of the included VirtualDJ software is decent, although demanding DJs will prefer the wider range of filter and dB range settings found on competing programs.
The performance of the Hercules DJ Console Rmx hardware is outstanding at this price. Because the console's USB connection is responsible for handling both audio and MIDI data, slower machines may experience some audio or control latency issues, so be sure to check the Hercules DJ Console Rmx's CPU requirements beforehand. When Hercules starts work on the second version of the Rmx, we'd ask that they use center-indented dials for their balance and EQ controls, and maybe throw in a protective cable lock for the USB jack, but that's about it. On the whole, the Hercules DJ Console Rmx is rock-solid and responsive, and a great way for cash-strapped digital DJs to dip their hands on a professional-quality USB mixing console.

Australian scientists have found tiny specks of gold in eucalyptus trees in the Outback – a discovery that could revolutionise the gold exploration industry.
The team, from Australia's national scientific agency, the CSIRO, found traces of gold in the leaves and branches of gum trees in the remote Kalgoorlie area of Western Australia. They concluded that root systems, searching for moisture during times of drought, suck up water containing the precious metal from ore deposits lying up to 30 metres underground.
The discovery is unlikely to spark a modern-day gold rush, since the particles are so minute – about one-fifth of the diameter of a human hair – that they are invisible to the naked eye. Indeed, according to Melvyn Lintern, who headed the research project, it would take 500 such trees to yield enough gold for a wedding ring.
However, at a time of rising gold prices and dwindling reserves, it could help mining companies to locate new deposits, saving them the cost and effort of drilling deep into the earth.
Nigel Radford, a former geochemist with US-based Newmont Mining, one of the world's largest gold producers, told ABC radio it was "very, very important for the future of mineral exploration".
Mining companies, which partly sponsored the research, have already begun sampling leaves for gold, according to Dr Lintern, who said the technique – an environmentally friendly method of exploration – could also be used to find metals such as copper and zinc.
The unusually long, extensive roots of a gum tree, penetrating up to 40 metres underground, act as a "hydraulic pump", said Dr Lintern, whose team collected leaves, branches and bark, and examined them under a powerful X-ray microscope. He told ABC: "We weren't expecting this at all. To actually see the gold particles in the leaves was quite a 'eureka' moment for us."
According to the scientists, whose findings were published in the online journal Nature Communication, the gold particles are drawn up through the tree's root system. "As the gold is likely to be toxic to the plant, it's moved to the leaves and branches where it can be released or shed to the ground," Dr Lintern said.
"By sampling and analysing vegetation for traces of minerals, we may get an idea of what's happening below the surface without the need to drill… Eucalyptus trees are so common that this technique could be widely applied across Australia."
Bushes and soil beneath the trees could also be tested for gold traces.
Australia is the world's second biggest gold producer after China, mining nearly 80 tons of the metal last year. With global reserves decreasing, exploration companies are now hunting for deposits that lie deep underground and are difficult to detect.
Dr Lintern said: "As far as we know, this is the first time that anyone has seen gold in any biological tissue, and it just happens to be a eucalyptus leaf."Reuse content

2016 Ford Focus RS vs 2016 Honda Civic Type R - Inside Lane
They are the two most anticipated hot hatchback of the decade, the 2016 Ford Focus RS and 2016 Honda Civic Type R. In the blue corner this new RS packs a turbocharged 2.3 litre EcoBoost engine with 345bhp and all wheel drive. In the red corner the latest Type R is powered by a 2.0 litre turbocharged VTEC engine producing 306bhp sent to ground via the front wheels and an advanced differential setup. 2016 Ford Focus RS vs 2016 Honda Civic Type R which car would you take home? We test them back to back to give our verdict. The aim of this test is to find which of these two very fast hot hatchbacks ticks the most boxes. Whilst on paper the 2016 Ford Focus RS claims 0-62mph in just 4.7 seconds, a whole second faster than the Type R, can it compete with just how good the Type R is out on track. RS has drift mode, Type R the hardcore +R track mode. Both cost the same, both are aimed at a similar group of people, but pack some serious performance.

Angels' bad news: Morales' comeback on hold
Kendrys Morales' return from last year's fractured ankle has been put on hold.
The Angels first baseman left camp Monday and returned to Los Angeles to have his left foot examined by Dr. Phil Kwong, foot-and-ankle specialist at the Kerlan-Jobe Clinic. Morales has been bothered by soreness in the big toe and ball of his left foot since trying to increase his running program last week.
An MRI was performed and revealed no structural damage. Kwong diagnosed soreness in the foot, most likely related to "some flexibility issues with the ankle and foot," according to GM Tony Reagins.
Morales' workouts will be shut down for an indefinite period in order to let the soreness subside.
"We're taking a half-step back to take a step forward," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "We'll see how this shakes out in the next couple days."
Morales had tried to increase his running early last week but was only able to run in a straight-line down the first base line at less than full speed. After doing that on consecutive days, the soreness in his foot became too much of an issue for him to continue the program.
"We've got to let it calm down," Reagins said. "He tried to progress multiple days. After back-to-back days (of trying to run), this developed."
Reagins maintains that the Angels have not been surprised by Morales' halting progress this spring and unavailability to start the season despite the team's proclamations as far back as December that Morales would be ready to play during spring training.
"We understand the significance of the injury and when you put it in that context, you have to be smart," Reagins said. "We have a long season ahead of us and if we can be conservative and smart on the front end, hopefully it will benefit us in the long run."
The Angels slumped to a losing record (80-82) last season after losing Morales on May 29 with a fractured ankle. A large part of the Angels' off-season plan to bounce back was built around Morales returning to their lineup in 2011. Though the timetable for Morales' eventual return is made even more cloudy by the latest news, Reagins insisted the team would not have altered its off-season agenda if it had known he wouldn't be available to start the season.
"No. If you're assuming we're not going to have Kendrys all season, then your assumption might be correct," Reagins said. "But I'm real confident in saying he's going to be back in real short order. I'm not anticipating him being out months. So our off-season – it wouldn't have had any effect on our off-season, based on where Kendrys is now."
Right-hander Joel Pineiro had hoped to throw an aggressive bullpen in the next couple days and get back on schedule after the cramp that forced him from his start Sunday had subsided. But the Angels have a more conservative plan in mind.
Scioscia said Tuesday that Pineiro would not make his next start and would probably not throw a bullpen session for four or five days. The target now is for Pineiro to stay behind when the Angels break camp Saturday and pitch in a minor-league camp game next week before starting his season with the Angels a little late. With two off days in the first week of the regular season, the Angels could push Pineiro's first start as far back as the home-opening series against the Toronto Blue Jays April 8-10.

On Hardball this evening, Tom Delay called Barack Obama a "Marxist, "a radical" and "a Socialist" though he declined to call him anti-American. (Video at left.)Obama thinks it's starting to get a little funny, saying today "By the end of the week he'll be accusing me of being a secret Communist because I shared my toys in kindergarten." [Huffington Post]Nope, actually, they're going back tot he terrorist meme! McCain's now attacking Obama with former University of Chicago professor, current Columbia University professor and (gasp!) Palestinian Rashid Khalidi. Not that Khalidi is actually a terrorist or anything — and not like it matters to McCain. [Washington Independent]Let us Never Forget, though, which terrorist does support McCain's candidacy: Osama bin Laden. [Washington Independent]In an full frontal assault on all things decent and American, Joe The Motherfucking Plumber now has an agent and wants to be a country singer. 13...14... [Politico]ACORN has an ad out, asking people to tell John McCain to call off his dogs and stop trying to intimidate voters. McCain's camp swears they're totally not at fault for that shit. [YouTube, CNN]Celebrities want you to vote. Let's not forget that McCain thinks you shouldn't pay attention to celebrities. [Huffington Post]Another McCain rally got out of hand, with several McCain supporters threatening to beat up two Obama supporters staging a mini-protest across the street. Seriously, even Fox News reports this shit now. How do these people not learn? [FiveThirtyEight]Sort of like how someone in Kentucky hanged Obama in effigy. Seriously, what the fuck? What happened to the America I thought I grew up in. Who are you people? [United Press]Oh, and another P.U.M.A. is over at the Daily Beast explaining that she's voting McCain because he cares more about poor people. It has nothing AT ALL to do with the fact that the Democrats stopped hiring to do stuff after she called Obama fat and was mean to everyone, or her Clinton love, nosireebob, it's that Republicans support the poor. Try not to hurt yourself laughing. [Daily Beast]Now go watch this video of this elderly, African-American Obama supporter who got to meet the man himself. It'll get the taste of the rest of that shit out of your mouth. [Attackerman]Reply115 repliesLeave a reply

Taylor Swift took the stage at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show on Wednesday (Nov. 13) to perform a handful of hits while the Angels walked the runway and, while her fans will likely eat the performance up when it airs in December, she didn't earn rave reviews from everyone involved.
Angle Jessica Hart went on record with Women's Wear Daily at the show's afterparty, admitting she didn't really think the "22" singer was the right choice as headliner. "I think, you know what, god bless her [Taylor Swift] heart. I think she's great. But, I don't know, to me, she didn't fit. I don't know if I should say that."
In order to appease all the Angels for 2014's show, here are five artists who fit the bill a bit better than Swift.
1. Cher
She's a living legend, she'll already be spending most of 2014 touring in support of her new album, "Closer To the Truth," and what better for some of the world's most beautiful women to strut their stuff to than "Woman's World"?
Once "Britney Jean" drops in December, the Holy Spearit will find herself back on top of the music charts. Sure, by the time the special tapes next year, she'll be deep in her Las Vegas residency, but the headliner spot could bump ticket sales, should they find themselves sagging by then. And let's not pretend that "Work B****" wouldn't lend itself perfectly to the runway.
3. One Direction
If Justin Bieber can do it, the new Fab Five can.
4. Lady Gaga
Her costumes may overshadow even the most expensive of bras, but no one would ever accuse Mother Monster of being out of place on the runway.
5. Beyonce
Uh, duh.
Do you think Swift was a bad choice for the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show? Who do you think would make a good selection for 2014?

5D mkIII microadjust
Jul 10, 2012
Just tried to see if my 50mm f1.4 lens needed micro adjusting as described here: http://www.northlight-images.co.uk/article_pages/cameras/1ds3_af_micoadjustment.html
Made the adjustment at a distance of around 3 meters.
It seemed to be fine so for the hell of it I made the adjustment to +20 and really couldn't see much difference at all, same with -20.
Surely if adjusted this much it should be way out of focus, or is it a really minor adjustment?
Or could I be doing something wrong in the adjustment, I did RTFM :/
