Natucer collaborates with REMEB, backing diversification in the ceramic sector
On Feb. 17, 2017, FACSA, ITC-UJI, and the Valencia region Council of Chambers of Commerce presented the EU Project REMEB project in a press conference together with the ceramic manufacturing company Natucer, which is manufacturing the REMEB ceramic membranes to be used for water treatment. In the event, covered by multiple media from the province of Castellón and Valencia region, the several representatives talked about the project background, its objectives, the advantages of using this technology and the difficulties faced during its development.
Ceramic Centre guest of the Municipality of Fiorano for the EU Project Life CERSUDS
On Feb. 1, 2017, Ceramic Centre attended a meeting at the Municipality of Fiorano Modenese, during which both Mayor and town Council offered their helpfulness to carry out a feasibility study concerning a draining tiling by using ceramic tiles with low added value, in agreement with the model that the EU Project Life CERSUDS is developing in the town of Benicàssim (Castellón, E). Through this commitment, the City of Fiorano takes action perfectly aligned to the integrated approach that aims at mitigating and adapting to climate change required by the "Covenant of Mayors". The "Covenant of Mayors" includes thousands of local authorities involved on a voluntary basis to achieve, on the territory of competence, the EU goals for energy and the climate.
Go to the website "Covenant of Mayors"
EU Project Life-CERSUDS : more than 20 experts meet for sustainable drainage systems
Tuesday, January 17, ITC-AICE (E) hosted, within the Project EU Life-CERSUDS, the meeting of a Working Group consisting of over 20 experts representing various organisations, institutions, companies, in addition to the members of the Project Consortium, including Ceramic Centre.
The purpose was to investigate the characteristics of the Project EU Life-CERSUDS, analyze the transition model towards sustainable urban drainage systems, and to promote its implementation on regional and national scale, in order to avoid the harmful effects of climate changes and reduce CO2 emissions.
Ceramic Centre and FGK sum up the situation on new techniques for the ceramic surface characterization
On 23 and 24 November, Dr. Marcel Engels and Dr. Miriam Miehling, both of FGK (Forschungsinstitut für Anorganische Werkstoffe -Glas/Keramik- GmbH) visited the Ceramic Centre. Main theme was the discussion of the issues concerning surface characterization of ceramic tiles by means of optical profilometry, a technique used both at CC and the FGK for the study of the resistance to slip of such products.
Dr. Engels also held a Seminar at the School of Engineering and Architecture, University of Bologna, entitled "Surface characterization as a basis for the evaluation of slip resistance and cleaning behavior of ceramic tile surfaces".
Centro Ceramico at 20th European Forum on Eco-innovation
Centro Ceramico attended the 20th European Forum on Eco-innovation, held in Tallinn (Estonia) from Oct. 26-28 2016. The Forum examined financing opportunities for eco-innovative SMEs and showcased successful companies who have succeeded in attracting investors and growing their business. It explored the enabling factors and challenges of transitioning to a circular business model and addressed these through the lens of business, finance and public sector.
Dr. E. Rambaldi presented EU Project Wincer in the framework of the B2I (business to investor) matchmaking session.
EU Project SILIFE at SAIE 2016″
Ceramic Centre has led at SAIE 2016 Fair the EU Project SILIFE – "Production of Quartz Powders with Reduced Crystalline Silica Toxicity".
The main purpose of SILIFE is to reduce the impact on the health of workers deriving from exposure to crystalline silica.
The prospect is to replace the standard quartz powder with processed quartz powder, in order to obtain a material with decreased toxicity, but with the same technical performance.
Participation in this Fair is of particular importance, because SAIE includes, among the various areas, Session "Work Environment", the only Italian exhibition initiative dedicated to health and safety in the workplace.
On November 2 in Castellon (E), at ITC headquarters, the 1st Annual Meeting was held.
Dr. G. Bonvicini (Ceramic Centre) at SAIE 2016.
Ceramic Centre partner of the EU Project Life-Cersuds
The European Commission has funded the Project LIFE-CERSUDS in the framework of the Programme LIFE 2014-2020.
Centro Ceramico is partner of the Project, coordinated by ITC (E). The prime objective is the development and implementation of a sustainable urban drainage system (SUDS) whose "skin" consists of an innovative system, with a low environmental impact, made using in-stock ceramic tile of little commercial value. In comparison to traditional systems, such SUDS can reduce surface run-off water by almost 90%, enabling reuse in irrigation, decreasing diffuse pollution and improving water quality.
The project involves also the Municipality of Fiorano Modenese (I), one of the municipalities included in the Ceramic District of the Emilia-Romagna Region, who has expressed its willingness to host a reproduction of the SUDS demonstrator using in-stock ceramic tiles.
The activities started on Oct. 13, 2016, on the occasion of the kick-off meeting at headquarters of ITC in Castellón (E). Moreover, on Nov. 22 a meeting has been held, with the participation of an EU Commissioner.

Gabbrielli technology and Ceramic Centre together at Tecnargilla
Gabbrielli technology and Ceramic Centre participated together at Tecnargilla, in the framework of a collaboration project aimed to create the best synergy between these two historical entities.
Gabbrielli showed a preview of the most innovative technological solutions for the ceramic sector, allowing visitors to experience first hand the functionalities and characteristics of its new instruments, and providing all business information about its products and services.
Ceramic Centre, which uses for many years Gabbrielli instruments for the characterisation and certification of the ceramic products, made available the knowledge of its technicians to provide technical-informative support.
Centro Ceramico at CERSAIE 2016
Ceramic Centre attended CERSAIE, at the front desk of Confindustria Ceramica (Service Center), informing visitors about the latest National and European R&D projects specifically targeted to the ceramic tile industry.
Ceramic Centre celebrated 40 years of activity
On June 21, at the headquarters of Confindustria Ceramica in Sassuolo, Ceramic Centre celebrated 40 years of activity.
Over 150 participants attended the event, including CEOs and managers of ceramics industries, plant companies, surface treatment companies, lecturers and researchers of the University, representative of Certification Bodies, reporters, etc.
It was May 5, 1976, when representatives of the Institutions founding the Consortium signed the Convention for the establishment of an entity still unique today.
The meeting recalled the four decades of the University Consortium Ceramic Centre, devoted to research, technology transfer, innovation and certification for the ceramics industry, in collaboration with industrial associations and local Government.
The meeting was opened by the President of the Ceramic Centre and the President of Confindustria Ceramica, followed by, the speeches of Modena Mayor, Council Member for Productive Activities of the Emilia-Romagna Region, and the Rector of the University of Bologna.
Afterwards, Giorgio Timellini – past Director (2006-2014) – outlined the history of the Ceramic Centre, whereas Maria Chiara Bignozzi – Director from 2015 – depicted the current situation and the future paths of the Ceramic Centre.
The event ended with buffet, cake and toast in the park.

It has given an updated technical and scientific contribution about the subject of wastes, in order to foster the implementation of "best available techniques and practices" in the sustainable management of wastes/residues/by-products/end of waste, with particular attention to those chemically hazardous.
The Workshop was addressed to public and private bodies, companies, lecturers, researchers and students involved in environmental issues for sustainable development.
Centro Ceramico has presented the paper: "Wastes: new sustainable resources for the building industry" – M.C. Bignozzi, E. Rambaldi.
See the programme of the Workshop
Another EU Project funded for the Ceramic Centre
The EU Project "SILIFE – PRODUCTION OF QUARTZ POWDERS WITH REDUCED CRYSTALLINE SILICA TOXICITY" has been funded, after being submitted to EU Call for proposals LIFE 2014 – subprogramme: ENVIRONMENT, priority area: ENVIRONMENT AND RESOURCE EFFICIENCY.
The Project will last 4 years and involves 10 European Partners.
The main purpose of SILIFE is to reduce the impact on the health of workers deriving from exposure to crystalline silica.
The prospect is to replace the standard quartz powder with processed quartz powder, in order to obtain a material with decreased toxicity, but with the same technical performance.
The Kick-off Meeting has been held on Oct. 14, at Univ. Jaume I, Castellón (E).

Drie Fonteinen Oude Geuze Golden Blend | Brouwerij 3 Fonteinen
Brewed by:
Brouwerij 3 Fonteinen
Style: Gueuze
Alcohol by volume (ABV): 7.50%
Availability: Rotating
Notes / Commercial Description:
The Golden Blend is made with 4 year old Lambic that accounts for 25 % of it's contents, the rest of the blend is made up by a "secret" combination of 1, 2 and 3 year old Lambic.
The exact mixture is only known by the master-blender Armand himself.
The name "Golden Blend" is not far away from the truth, in fact, the 4 years of maturation in oak-wooden barrels is making this particular Lambic very expensive.
Due to the "evaporation" through the barrels, only a small percentage of the lambic is left over after 4 years of maturing.

Does your face turn pink when you drink alcohol and, pretty soon, it's as red as the wine in your glass? If you're a woman, you look like you're wearing blush. A cursory search on the internet gives you all kinds of answers, from high blood pressure to alcoholism, but the truth is, it can happen to anyone. Is someone who drinks red wine versus white more likely to get a red face? People with flushed faces while drinking alcohol are more likely to have high blood pressure. Researchers collected data from over 1,700 participants and found that those who reported facial redness after drinking were up to 2. Red wine and dark spirits seem to be the most redness-inducing, but all types of alcohol can have an effect. For some of us, there's an awkward moment when your face turns red after one alcoholic bevvy. If this situation is often a reality for you then chances are you've got a genetic disorder.
Getting a red face after downing a couple of alcoholic beverages is not a sign of strong qi (energy flow) or good blood circulation, but rather, it is an indication that your body is not metabolising alcohol efficiently. Individuals who experience the alcohol flushing reaction may be less prone to alcoholism. Disulfiram, a drug sometimes given as treatment for alcoholism, works by inhibiting acetaldehyde dehydrogenase, causing a five to tenfold increase in the concentration of acetaldehyde in the body. Ruth, like many Asian Americans, has at times been reluctant to drink wine because of her tendency to turn a deep shade of red after even just half a glass of red or white.
Do you get flushed after you drink a glass of wine or pint of beer? If people inherit two sets of the gene, they may get a lot more than a red face from drinking even small amounts of wine (anyone have that Asian friend who gets nauseous and massive headaches, and has to stop drinking after a sip or two?). Andrew Garfield keeps it casual in a burgundy coat and trainers as he picks up a bottle of wine on a stroll through London Just another normal day. Red face when drinking alcohol. My friend has cooked a lamb roast, and we're all sharing a bottle of red wine. (Post continues after gallery.).
Asian Flush Syndrome: Is Alcohol Giving You A Red Face?
It's important to wear a daily broad-spectrum sunblock on the face and avoid excessive heat exposure and sunburns she said. Why do some wines cause a flushing or redness on the face and neck? A red face after drinking alcohol may be a warning sign of esophageal cancer risk, researchers say. – If your face turns red after a few drinks, it could be a sign of added risk for alcohol-linked high blood pressure, new research suggests. Later on a couple of people commented that my face was red. Researchers have shown that as many as 50 percent of people of Asian descent experience a red flushed complexion after drinking alcohol. Does drinking red wine before bedtime cause nightmares?
That Wine Flush May Be More Serious Than You Thought
Today I had about four sips of a glass of red wine and my face became red and swollen, my entire face and ears were burning. This lasted for about fiv. Immediately after taking a few sips of an alcoholic drink, I have an almost cartoonish reaction. My face, nose, chest and ears turn red when I drink red wine. People whose faces turn red when they drink alcohol may be facing more than embarrassment. First, do you flush after drinking a glass of beer? Second, in the first one or two years after you began drinking, did you flush after having a beer?. I look drunk after just one drink and it's a little embarassing sometimes when I'm out having dinner and I have a drink with it and I end up looking like I'm wasted. My faces gets red after one glass of wine.
Symptoms include flushing, increased heart rate and reduced blood pressure. Alcohol causes the release of histamine and some wines have a high concentration of histamines. When patients wheeze after drinking alcohol, there are a number of possible reasons. Growing up, I would always laugh at my dad after he drank a beer or a glass of wine. He is Thai-Chinese and even one drink makes his face turn bright red. My face and neck go red after drinking even a tiny bit of alcohol. I never used to get this, but in the past few years I have found that most red wine turns me bright red, and other alcohol to a lesser extent. 5 Reasons Your Face Looks So Ugly After A Night Of Drinking. Oftentimes, the flushed face you had at the pregame can carry over to the morning after.

Bill restructuring marijuana sentences clears House committee
After sitting around for one day shy of a month after its hearing, HB 254, which would restructure sentences for low-level marijuana possession, passed out of the Texas House Criminal Jurisprudence Committee today at a desk meeting. (See a fact sheet on the bill.) There's still plenty of time for it to move through the process.
I haven't seen the vote tally, yet, but muchas gracias to committeemembers who supported it.
HB 254 would restructure sentences for possession of less than an ounce of pot to become a stiff fine, boosting local revenue and freeing up space for more dangerous inmates. A similar law in Columbia, Missouri actually boosted enforcement. See previous Grits coverage here and here.

Content-Aware Caching and Traffic Management in Content Distribution Networks
The rapid increase of content delivery over the Internet has led to the proliferation of Content Distribution Networks (CDNs). Management of CDNs requires algorithms for request routing, content placement, and eviction in such a way that user delays are small. The authors abstract the system of front-end source nodes and backe-nd caches of the CDN in the likeness of the input and output nodes of a switch. In this model, queues of requests for different pieces of content build up at the source nodes, which route these requests to a cache that contains the requested content.

I've had this phone for nearly a year now and am pleased with it's performance. All my previous mobiles have been good for about 6 months and then the battery life starts to drop very quickly and they look outdated. This phone still looks great though and the battery life is continues to be excellent (I can still go a week without charging it). Amazingly, I've avoided scratching the screen as well so they must be made of strong materials! The only criticism I have is that the web surfing is… Read Full Review

I've had this phone for about a week now and i'm really impressed for a touch screen phone which is free on most contracts.
The touch screen is extremely responsive compared to others i've seen, maybe not quite upto iphone standards but its about £300 cheaper and a lot better than other phones I tried. The menus are easy to follow and are simple to change so you can rearrange them to have the ones you use most on the first page. The battery life is amazing on this phone, i've charged it once…

Ask me "What is the best Mobile Phone out there?"
And I will tell you "No doubt, it's the Apple iPhone."
Ask me "Have you got one?"
And I will tell you "No."
Ask me "Why?"
And I will tell you "It is too expensive."
True, the Apple iPhone is a technical marvel. The extremely responsive touch-screen, the innovative "pinch-zoom", the sheer easy-of-use, the hundreds of thousands of Applications you can download for less than the price of a daily newspaper etc etc etc. The problem is that…

Brian Quinn, a Bank director, said he supported calls by the General Accounting Office, an arm of Congress, for this to be done.
But Alan Greenspan, chairman of the Federal Reserve, appeared to rule out such measures when he said there was a negligible risk that a taxpayer bail-out would be necessary for a brokerage firm that had run into problems from dealing in derivatives.
He also told a House hearing the chances of serious systemic problems arising from derivatives were remote and needed no legislation.
Mr Quinn, speaking at a London conference, backed the GAO recommendation on securities subsidiaries, but said he did not accept that supervision should extend beyond the trading subsidiaries of securities firms to their customers or to other dealers.

Crowdfunding is a collective form of funding, a collaborative process by a group of people who use their own money to support the efforts of people and organisations.
The Web, the complex system that connects us to millions of people around the world and allows us to immediately share a photo when it is taken, is also the system that, for a few years, has enabled the collection of funds and financing through its network.
A dream, a project or a goal to achieve is shared on the Web and supported by a crowd of people. But how is this possible?
How crowdfunding works
All of us, some more than others, talk about our life and what we do on social networks. Why not use this valuable network of contacts to fund our projects?
A small project such as publishing a book or a large project such as opening a successful business can be financed by raising funds on the Web thanks to crowdfunding.
People have used crowdfunding to raise funds in order to restore works, obtain adequate funds to make a film, fulfil a dream or even organise a wedding. The aim of crowdfunding is to explain why you need to raise funds, declare your intentions, get people to take part and encourage Web users.
But why would anyone want to fund someone else's project?
Angelo Rindone of Produzioni dal Basso, the oldest Italian crowdfunding platform set up in 2005, explains: "First of all, we need to explain. Many types of crowdfunding exist: the most widespread in Italy is reward-based crowdfunding, which aims to finance well-defined projects and offers something in return to reward contributors such as a book, a DVD, tickets for a show or a subscription to a magazine. In most cases, the reward is the object, book or film that is to be created with the money raised by crowdfunding. One of the reasons why people are encouraged to fund is that they are interested in the end product. Another reason, which is just as important for those who use the Produzioni dal Basso platform, is that they believe in the project and in its social value, aside from the object that is the reward".
How does it work? The mechanism is very simple:
• You choose a crowdfunding platform (in Italy there are 41 active platforms and 13 now being launched) and explain the project that you intend to implement.
• You calculate how much it will cost and how many contributions it can be divided into. Those who are interested in funding reserve their contributions, however, in most cases they pay nothing until the project has been fully funded. Only then, they will need to pay the agreed amount by bank transfer, credit card or PayPal.
Crowdfunding platforms and models
Crowdfunding platforms are websites that bring together those who promote projects and request funding and users who offer monetary contributions. Crowdfunding platforms can be defined as follows:
- Generalist platforms that collect projects in all areas of interest.
- Vertical (or thematic) platforms specialised in projects in specific sectors.
Platforms are also divided according to the type of crowdfunding model as follows:
- Donation-based: platforms where users can make donations to support a specific cause or initiative without receiving anything in exchange (e.g. funding an election campaign)
- Reward-based: users take part in funding a project in exchange for a non-monetary reward or acknowledgement (e.g. funding a theatre performance and receiving a ticket for the show in exchange). It is the most widespread model to date.
- Social lending or peer-to-peer lending: used for loans between private individuals, who are rewarded by the payment of interest.
- Royalty-based: funding an initiative and being repaid with the profits made.
Equity-based: when investing online, users acquire a real share in a company: in this case, the "reward" for funding is represented by the overall equity and administrative rights that arise from a share in the enterprise
Crowdfunding in Italy: the first and only country with ad hoc regulations
Italy is the first country in Europe to have a law that regulates equity-based crowdfunding. Unlike in other countries, crowdfunding portals in Italy are equivalent to existing applications (public savings and payment services).
This difference arises in response to the economic crisis that struck Italy in 2008, a crisis that particularly affected small and medium-sized companies and new enterprises, better known as start-ups. Regulations applying to a specific type of innovative start-up were introduced with Legislative Decree no. 179/2012 (converted into law no. 221 on 17 December 2012) entitled "Further urgent measures for Italy's economic growth" (commonly known as the "Decreto Crescita").
The name "Decreto Crescita (Growth Decree)" has been used to stimulate the economic growth of Italy.
In the overall bill, equity-based crowdfunding is seen as a tool that can facilitate the development of innovative start-ups through regulations and funding procedures that exploit the potential of the Web and therefore stimulate the economic growth of Italy.
The decree has delegated Consob (the Securities and Exchange Commission) with the task of regulating some specific aspects of crowdfunding aimed at creating a reliable "environment" to generate confidence among investors. Consob adopted the new regulations on 26 June 2013.

Welcome to Windows Seven Forums.
Before you kill him, drag it out of him what he did, because I'd be interested to know. My only suggestion is to boot into Safe Mode (hit F8 on booting up) and do a system restore to a point before the little blighter messed with your computer. |

Go to Control Panel/Fonts.
Make sure "Segoe UI" is still there. If not, download and install it. Right click your desktop -> Personalize -> Window Color -> Advanced appearance settings... Take every item that supports font selection and set it to "Segoe UI", size 9 and color it black. Report back to us is you run into any trouble. If you manage to solve your problem please mark this thread as solved and if it's not to much hassle, tell us what happened. |

Do you have another computer with an up-to-date Fonts folder?
If so, just copy and paste its contents to your corrupted Fonts folder and you should be good to go, which will leave you free to kill your kid brother. |

- losing weight is hard. Oh, yeah, you probably knew that.
- losing weight is easier when you are younger. If you are younger than 40 and want to lose weight, don't wait!
- a pound of muscle does NOT weigh more than a pound of fat. 1 pound = 1 pound. However, muscle is more dense and takes up less space. That means...
- use your measurements as well as the scale to register progress!
- people have patterns of weight loss. For example, you may lose for 3 weeks and then hold steady the next. Maybe you lose for 4, gain the next week, then lose for 4 weeks again.
- That means that 3 to 4 weeks into a weight loss plan is too soon to decide if you are on a plateau.
- Hormones can be evil.
- Losing weight is harder for women.
- A big exercise day is sometimes followed by a weight gain.
- It's definitely better NOT to weigh every day. Really once a week is a good idea, but I usually can't hold out that long.
- I don't always practice what I preach.
- What works for one person, might not work for the next.
- Writing down everything you eat, even if you are not calculating calories or points or whatever, can be useful.
- Being honest about what you write down is also useful.
- Being honest about how much you exercise is also useful... there are lots of great apps out there to help you record your exercise.
- Exercise is important for everyone, even if you aren't trying to lose weight.
- Losing weight slower seems to be better for long term maintenance.
Thread runs through my life, holding it together. What keeps yours from falling apart?

Thoughts on Losing Weight
Like many, many others, one of my New Year's resolutions was to lose weight. It's a popular one, no? And 2 of the things that I've found helpful are 1) a public announcement of my plan and 2) support of others. This year, I'm following along with Shannon of Hungry Zombie fame as she tries to "tame her arse". Her series has "inspired" me to share just a few things that I learned in my 2 years as a Weight Watchers leader. [These "learnings" are strictly anecdotal and observational. There may be science to back them up, but I'm not looking up the research, therefore, they are my opinion only, and I am no longer associated with Weight Watchers.]
Another disclaimer: there are exceptions to everything I learned (except that 1 pound = 1 pound... that's always true).
So. What did I learn and observe?
That's it for now. And I just want to add that while my reasons for losing weight are for health concerns, I'm not gonna lie and say those are the only reasons. No matter what your views on weight loss are, I do believe that a person's weight is a personal matter.
navel gazing,
weight loss

'If you thought that life on America's college campuses had reached peak crazy, you'd be wrong. It turns out that the politically correct culture which has entangled our upper education system, is taking a turn for the Orwellian (if it hadn't already).
Adam Steinbaugh of the Washington Examiner has been investigating these schools, and he's found that the administrators are encouraging students to snitch on each other (and their professors). Not to expose criminal behavior or cheating, but to target inappropriate speech. He found that 230 colleges have what are called "Bias Response Teams," which are made up of either campus cops or administrators, and whose sole job is to investigate mostly anonymous claims of offensive speech.
And as you might expect, these schools define "bias" in extremely vague and subjective terms. What may shock most people, however, is that it isn't reserved for stifling conservative opinions, as would be typical of a college campus. It can include anything that offends anyone.'

Far EastHumanity has colonized the planets - interstellar travel is still beyond our reach, but the solar system has become a dense network of colonies. But there are tensions - the mineral-rich outer planets resent their dependence on Earth and Mars and the political and military clout they wield over the Belt and beyond. Now, when Captain Jim Holden's ice miner stumbles across a derelict, abandoned ship, he uncovers a secret that threatens to throw the entire system into war.
"A Pleasant Romp Through the Galaxy"
For someone who didn't intend to wreck the solar system's fragile balance of power, Jim Holden did a pretty good job of it.While Earth and Mars have stopped shooting each other, the core alliance is shattered. The outer planets and the Belt are uncertain in their new - possibly temporary - autonomy. Then, on one of Jupiter's moons, a single super-soldier attacks, slaughtering soldiers of Earth and Mars indiscriminately and reigniting the war.
"Excellent sequel to Leviathan Wakes"
A revolution brewing for generations has begun in fire. It will end in blood. The Free Navy - a violent group of Belters in black-market military ships - has crippled the Earth and begun a campaign of piracy and violence among the outer planets. The colony ships heading for the 1,000 new worlds on the far side of the alien ring gates are easy prey, and no single navy remains strong enough to protect them. James Holden and his crew know the strengths and weaknesses of this new force better than anyone.
"Make this one last"
A thousand worlds have opened, and the greatest land rush in human history has begun. As wave after wave of colonists leave, the power structures of the old solar system begin to buckle. Ships are disappearing without a trace. Private armies are being secretly formed. The sole remaining protomolecule sample is stolen. Terrorist attacks previously considered impossible bring the inner planets to their knees. The sins of the past are returning to exact a terrible price.
"Stunning next episode"
For generations the solar system--Mars, the moon, the asteroid belt--was humanity's great frontier. Until now. The alien artefact working through its program under the clouds of Venus has emerged to build a massive structure outside the orbit of Uranus: a gate that leads into a starless dark. Jim Holden and the crew of the Rocinante are part of a vast flotilla of scientific and military ships going out to examine the artefact. But behind the scenes, a complex plot is unfolding, with the destruction of Holden at its core.
"Another enjoyable romp"
In The Idiot, Prince Myshkin possesses a childlike innocence and trusting nature that leave him vulnerable to abuse by those around him. Returning to St. Petersburg to collect an inheritance, Myshkin realizes he is a stranger in a society obsessed with wealth, manipulation and power.
Alex Cross is going home. But what will he find when he gets there? When his cousin is accused of an unthinkable crime, Alex Cross returns to his North Carolina hometown for the first time in over three decades. As he tries to prove his cousin's innocence in a town where justice is hard to find, Cross unearths a family secret that forces him to question everything he's ever known. Chasing a ghost he believed was long dead, Cross gets pulled into a case involving a string of murders.
Every novella by Ursula K. Le Guin, an icon in American literature, collected for the first time - and introduced by the legendary author - in one breathtaking volume. Ursula K. Le Guin has won multiple prizes and accolades, from the Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters to the Newbery Honor, Nebula, Hugo, World Fantasy, and PEN/Malamud awards. She has had her work collected over the years but never as a complete retrospective of her longer works.
High on a Czechoslovak hill, the Landauer House shines as a wonder of steel and glass. This radiant 1930s house, with its unique Glass Room, quickly tarnishes as the storm clouds of World War II gather. The house passes from hand to hand, from Czech to Russian, and bears witness to both the best and the worst of the history of Eastern Europe.
"Wonderful evocation! "
Mycroft Canner is a convict. For his crimes he is required, as is the custom of the 25th century, to wander the world being as useful as he can to all he meets. Carlyle Foster is a sensayer - a spiritual counselor in a world that has outlawed the public practice of religion, but which also knows that the inner lives of humans cannot be wished away.
"Well-crafted opener that ends abruptly"
In this magisterial study of the relationship between illness and art, the best-selling author of An Unquiet Mind, Kay Redfield Jamison, brings an entirely fresh understanding to the work and life of Robert Lowell (1917-1977), whose intense, complex, and personal verse left a lasting mark on the English language and changed the public discourse about private matters.
Where do writers learn their best moves? They use a technique that Roy Peter Clark calls X-ray reading, a form of reading that lets you penetrate beyond the surface of a text to see how meaning is actually being made. In The Art of X-Ray Reading, Clark invites you to don your X-ray reading glasses and join him on a guided tour through some of the most exquisite and masterful literary works of all time, from The Great Gatsby to Lolita to The Bluest Eye and many more.
The award winning series of classic and contemporary fiction returns with a collection of darkly funny short stories by the likes of Stephen King, Neil Gaiman, Aimee Bender, A.M. Homes, Nathan Englander, Kim, Addonizio, and George Saunders. Readers include Anjelica Huston, Neil Gaiman, Michael Imperioli, Harris Yulin, Christina Pickles, Jefferson Mays, and Christine Ebersole.
His existence shattered by the Great War, Bennett Grey is investigated by an American agent who thinks he may be useful for protecting national security. U.S. Bureau of Investigation agent Harris Stuyvesant's first inclination is to let his fists do the talking. But he's well out of his jurisdiction, having traveled across the Atlantic to dig up clues on an Englishman he believes responsible for terrorist acts in the States.
"Will there be a General Strike?"
Paul Schumann is a contract hit man for the mob in 1936. But with Prohibition over and the gang wars associated with it coming to an end, Schumann is finding less and less work. He is contracted for a hit. But this time, he's caught and finds that he's been set up. He's taken to meet an official in Army Intelligence and given a choice: He can spend the rest of his life in jail, or he can help his country. He is to pose as a member of the 1936 Olympic team, travel to Berlin, and kill a high-ranking Nazi close to Hitler....
"Great narration, really refreshing book."
The Turn of the Screw is a fireside tale of evil and mystery. Filled with extraordinary drama, Henry James' story has been widely popular ever since its publication in 1898. It also inspired a film, a play, and an opera. A governess has been hired to care for two orphaned young children in their uncle's English country home. But soon after she meets the boy and his sister, the governess begins to see fearful apparitions.
Following the success of Parrot and Olivier in America comes another wonderfully rich tale with historical themes from the twice Booker-winner. Catherine Gehrig, conservator at a London museum, learns of the unexpected death of her colleague and lover of thirteen years. Only the museum's director knew of the affair, and sends Catherine to work on a special project away from prying eyes.
"Bored to Tears"
A neutral capital straddling Europe and Asia, Istanbul has spent the war as a magnet for refugees and spies. Even American businessman Leon Bauer has been drawn into this shadow world, doing undercover odd jobs and courier runs for the Allied war effort. Now, as the espionage community begins to pack up and an apprehensive city prepares for the grim realities of postwar life, he is given one more assignment, a routine job that goes fatally wrong, plunging him into a tangle of intrigue and moral confusion.
"Intriguing story, tepid performance"
A titan of American letters, Paul Theroux wowed audiences and critics with his modern classic The Mosquito Coast. Its captivating thematic cousin, The Lower River, stars Ellis Hock, a man whose dreams of world travel and humanitarianism in the Peace Corps were dashed when he returned home to assume control of his family's business. Now with his wife having left and his life stagnant, Ellis makes the fateful decision to travel back to the small African village he once called home. Yet the happiness and fulfillment he seeks remain elusive.
"Haunting message about aid to Africa"
New York Times best-selling author Laurie R. King garners widespread acclaim for her suspenseful novels rich with historical detail. Set in the vibrant Paris Jazz Age, The Bones of Paris introduces private investigator Harris Stuyvesant, an American agent who's been given the plum assignment of locating beautiful young model Philippa Crosby. But when Philippa's trail ends at the Théâtre du Grand-Guignol in Montmartre, Stuyvesant discovers a world where art meets sexual depravity - and where a savage killer lurks in the shadows.

It's pretty obvious that the New York Yankees are going to win the World Cup like they do every year.
They'll play anyway. They already won the Stanley Cup this year.
All I know is that I've never seen Stanley at a hockey game. And sometimes
I really think those hockey players ought to take a few cues from The Great
Big Book Of Everything.
Hmmph. Toldya. The Yankees wouldn't have blown their lead against Portugal in the last 20 seconds of the game.
Brazil - You now know what it's like to be a NY Mets fan.
So it's pretty clear that the NFL should be disbanded now, right?
Or just subject all of them to the same violence aversion therapy as was done in Clockwork Orange. Sorry, not real I know, but a fun thought.
Yup. Did you know that the violence endorsement organization known as the NFL is a NON PROFIT?
All the zillions of dollars they bring in showing a bunch of dumb jocks, and they are a NON PROFIT.
Yes, it would be terribly unPatriotic for them to pay taxes
(My favorite NCAA basketball team is whoever beats Kentucky.)
So what about Sandoval on the Red Sox? How's he doing at this point in the new season?
Red Sox can bring on as many Sandovals as they want ... they still won't beat
the Yankees :)
Yanks be on the rebound? Yeah, I guess the soX have something to be worried about! :)
The Red Sox might need a few pitchers to go along with their offense.. Perhaps
a trade with the Mets?

1995 Toyota Camry Problems
RepairPal has identified the most common problems with the 1995 Toyota Camry based on complaints from actual vehicle owners. We'll tell you what the problem is and what it'll take to fix it.
On vehicles with a manual transmission, worn shift bushings can cause the transmission to pop out of gear, especially when coasting down in 1st or 2nd gear. Replacing all the shift linkage bushings is pretty straight forward and not expensive and will commonly correct this concern.
At 125,000-150,000 miles, the Brake Master Cylinder may need replacing. When replacing the master cylinder, it is critical to adjust the brake pedal to master cylinder pushrod clearance or the brakes can drag and overheat.
The EGR System tends to get restricted or blocked with carbon after 100,000- 125,000 miles which will cause an emissions test failure for NOX. If the EGR system is equipped with an EGR temperature sensor it will trigger a Check Engine Light for improper EGR flow. The repair is to clean out the EGR passages and the EGR Temperature sensor. Our technicians tell this repair is pretty straight forward and takes about 1-1.5 hours. It is also wise to verify the EGR system components i.e. the Transducer, EGR Valve and VSV Solenoid at this time.
A loss of power on the freeway may due to an internally leaking fuel pulsation dampener. This commonly occurs on higher mileage vehicles.
The Throttle Position Sensor can get out of adjustment due to wear in the throttle body or due to carbon build up. This will cause the idle timing to advance more than 30 degrees which will cause very high HC and NOx emissions. Conversely, the Throttle Position Sensors can wear out and not properly advance the timing which causes a lack of power and poor fuel economy.
A rough idle and even an emissions inspection failure for high HC and CO can be caused by improperly adjusted valves. Also, exhaust valves may become to tight which can lead to valve failures. Our technicians tell us that regular valve adjustment inspections are a must.
We recommend flushing the brake fluid every 60,000 miles because the fluid can become dirty and may cause problems in the brake system such as premature failure of the master cylinder or wheel cylinders.
Over the time the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system may become plugged with debris, the oxygen sensor may also be getting slow or 'lazy' around this time. When servicing or cleaning the EGR system, it is a good idea to replace the oxygen sensor because it works in tandem with the EGR system.
The head gaskets are prone to leaks in as little as 60,000 miles. When the head gasket is replaced, the knock sensor harness should be replaced as well, as it can be damaged by leaky head gaskets, resulting in a serious decrease in fuel efficiency or in long term engine damage.
