To prepare the ballotine: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Lay out the turkey breast on a flat surface with the skin side down. Pull the fillet (the piece that is loosely attached to the center of the breast on the opposite side from the skin) toward the middle of the breast so that it lays flat. Split open the large end of the turkey breast, while still keeping it attached to the rest of the breast, and lay next to the fillets. You should have a turkey breast that is roughly rectangular. Cover with plastic wrap and pound with a mallet until the surface is even and flat. Season the flattened breast with kosher salt and Szechuan peppercorns. Sprinkle the surface with the chopped herbs. Cover with the prosciutto. Starting with the end closest to you, roll tightly into a cylinder and tie every 2 inches with the butcher's twine. Season trhe outside with Kosher salt and Szechuan peppercorns. Place in a roasting pan and bake for about 1 1/2 hours, or until an internal temperature of 140 degrees is reached.
To preapre the roasted vegetables: Toss the onions, carrots, turnips, and parsnips in the oil and vinegar. After the ballotine has been cooking for 45 mintues, add the vegetables to the roasting pan. When the ballotine and vegetables are cooked, remove them from the oven. Let the turkey rest for 20 minutes, loosely covered with aluminum foil. To serve, remove the strings from the turkey (scissors work best for this), slice, and serve with the roasted vegetables.
Wine Notes To satisfy everyones taste, it is traditional to serve both red and white wine at the Wente family Thanksgiving dinner. More importantly, it is not necessarily the turkey that you are trying to pair with the wine. The other side dishes, gravies, and stuffing may have the stronger flavors and intensity with which the wines need to be paired. For a white wine, we usually serve a Sauvignon Blanc-Semillon blend or a full-bodied Chardonnay--both providing enough flavor and weight. We generally tend toward a light to medium-bodied red wine with nice acid, balanced tannins, and rich fruit, such as a Pinot Noir or Merlot. Whatever you choose, remember that there is no one right answer to a melting pot of traditions and flavors.

We'll Always Have Paris
by Sue Watson
Is it ever too late for a second chance at first love?
About the book...
A charming, moving second-chance love story for fans of Thursdays in the Park, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel and Last Tango in Halifax.
Does first love deserve a second chance?
When she was almost seventeen, Rosie Draper locked eyes with a charismatic student called Peter during their first week at art college, changing the course of her life forever. Now, on the cusp of sixty-five and recently widowed, Rosie is slowly coming to terms with a new future. And after a chance encounter with Peter, forty-seven years later, they both begin to wonder 'what if' . . .
Told with warmth, wit and humour, We'll Always Have Paris is a charming, moving and uplifting novel about two people; the choices they make, the lives they lead and the love they share.About the author...
Sue Watson was a journalist on women's magazines and national newspapers before working in a career in TV where she was a producer with the BBC. She has published six novels, her most well-known being Love, Lies and Lemon Cake. Originally from Manchester, Sue now lives in the Midlands and writes full time.
Author Links:-
I was given an ecopy of this book in exchange for an honest review as part of the We'll Always Have Paris Blog Tour organised by Sue Watson's publisher.
Where to begin? It's no secret how much I love Sue Watson and her writing - she has characters that are engaging and so very true to life. Stories that provide the perfect amount of escapism but you don't have to totally suspend belief - they're realistic, touching and heart warming with a generous helping of fun and laughter to counter balance the more serious aspects.
We'll Always Have Paris is a story packed tightly with love, family. friendship, and hope. It's about a family drifting through each day without a rudder to guide them. Mike, husband to Rosie, father to daughters Anna and Isobel passed away, taken by the dreadful curse that is cancer; just six short weeks after diagnosis.
Married for over forty years Rosie is struggling to get back to normal. A year has passed and she realises that she has to start to regain some normality in her life, to do things for herself and begin living again. She goes back to work in the florist shop she owns and runs with her daughters. She finds just being out of the house is a big enough step for her to begin with - the thought of facing everyones sympathy face to face is too much so she takes a role in the background preparing the flowers for a big wedding.
A chance meeting whilst accompanying Anna to deliver the wedding flowers with a man, who as a teenager was the love of her life literally knocks Rosie for six. Peter is equally reeling, they haven't seen each other for over 40 years.
I can only imagine the tug of love played out in Rosie's mind as she was drawn to Peter and the 'perfect' memories of teenage love, then the heart stopping guilt because she feels she shouldn't be happy because the man she married is dead. After all she's a widow and is still grieving. Feeling immense guilt because she loved Mike, but he wasn't the love of her life. That was Peter, something Mike always knew but he still loved and cherished her all the same.
The more I read of this book the more entranced I became. Through this book Sue demonstrates how grief and grieving is a process. There isn't a rule book and it can also be a positive thing. Somehow, grief can empower people, giving purpose, focus as a result of reflection - this was certainly the case for Rosie.
Grief affects us in different ways and takes differing amounts of time for people to come to terms with their loss. The wanting and needing to move on versus the guilt for being the one left behind enjoying life is all too apparent as Rosie struggles with her inner self. At the same time she also has to consider the feelings of her daughters. They're so busy looking out for their mother their own grief is on hold. It's a complete role reversal that though well meant, in the end comes across as patronising - they have become the parent and she Rosie, the child.
Through Rosie Sue demonstrates how we often look back at life through rose tinted glasses, remembering the good bits and erasing from our memories the worst bits. It's easy to forget that young people have fewer commitments and don't often look beyond the here and now so everything was perfect then. Peter's re-arrival in Rosie's life is the catalyst, the turning point for Rosie. When shrouded in grief she could only see herself as a widow. With Peter back in her life, a friend to share happy memories with she finds the strength and begins the process of taking control of her life, stepping back into the shoes of her other roles. That of Mother, grandmother and daughter. Connecting with her daughters on a much closer level, sharing her past and the events in her life that have shaped her.
We'll Always Have Paris has a strong storyline that each and everyone of us can relate to. It has family at the heart of it, led by a mother who always has her children's best interest at heart. The connection and understanding between mothers and daughters not always evident until they too become parents and face the same challenges - loving and protecting them, making decisions based upon experience. The older characters were perfect for this story about reflection, the dynamics of family life and taking second chances - with age comes maturity and understanding. We all, I'm sure, can remember a time when we couldn't understand our parents reasoning and thought they was just being deliberately mean or awkward but as mature adults, perhaps as parents ourselves suddenly 'see the light' and get it. It's a book that highlights the need to take chances, to live your dreams as we only have one life after all - life is too short and we shouldn't lose sight of our own hopes and aspirations whilst nurturing those of the people closest to us - it is still possible to achieve them whilst helping others achieve their own. Grief shouldn't be, but is often is the thing that gives us a kick up the bum to live our lives a little fuller.
I just loved this book, it's taken me three hours to try to put into words how much I loved it and I'm still not happy, I haven't done it justice. It's such a thought provoking, reflective story told from the heart. I smiled and savoured the raspberry macaroons - thank you Sue! Whilst at the same time laughing to myself as I thought about the many texts I receive off my daughter on a weekly basis, checking up on me - asking me where I am, what time I'll be home and telling me to ring when I arrive somewhere. I'm not quite sure when I became the child and my daughter the mother but it has slowly happened in this house too!
Follow the rest of the tour :)

I recently rebuilt my Windows XP Professional Edition laptop, and I wanted to use the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in to manage my system's Exchange 2000 Server user properties. I finally found a solution with the Windows .NET Server (Win.NET Server) 2003 Release Candidate 1 (RC1) Administration Tools Pack and the Exchange 2000 Service Pack 3 (SP3) Active Directory Connector (ADC) Management Tool. These two tools installed the necessary components to let me use the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in to view Exchange user properties. Be aware that the Administration Tools Pack is beta software. Also, because Microsoft doesn't yet support the Exchange System Manager (ESM) on XP, I still couldn't run the ESM to manage my Exchange server. However, the Exchange 2000 SP3 ADC Management Tool prevented me from having to run a Windows 2000 Server Terminal Services client every time I want to look up a user's Exchange properties or change a user's mailbox setting.
To use the Exchange 2000 SP3 ADC Management Tool, you need to be running XP Pro with SP1 installed. Install the Administration Tools Pack (available at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/release.asp?releaseid=34032 &area=search&ordinal=nan), which will let you use the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in to manage your Win2K Server Active Directory (AD). (My server has Exchange 2000 SP3 and Win2K SP3 installed.) For more information about the Administration Tools Pack, see the Microsoft article "Administering Windows 2000-Based and Windows .NET Server-Based Computers Using Windows XP Professional-Based Clients" (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=304718). Next, install the ADC from the Exchange 2000 SP3 CD-ROM (or from an expanded Web download). Select the Management Tools option during setup. You can now use the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in to manage Exchange 2000 user settings.

For 25 pieces of gold a day, sword jockey Eddie LaCrosse will take on almost any case. His office is above Angelina's Tavern. One slow night, an occupied, oversized coffin is delivered to Angelina's. All the regulars egg Eddie on to tell them who is in the coffin and how he could possibly know without prying the lid off. Eddie tells of a long-ago case on the island kingdom of Grand Braun, where King Marcus Drake is beloved by his people and Queen Jennifer is accused of adultery and murder. In Dark Jenny by Alex Bledsoe, Eddie unravels if Queen Jennifer is a killer and who is in the coffin so many years later.

About Residual Waste
While arc21s focus is on Reducing, Re-using and Recycling, its not possible yet to do that for all types of waste. That material which cant be recycled or composted is known as residual waste.
At present residual waste is sent to landfill, but due to new EU legislation the amount of waste going to landfill must be reduced to just 35% of its 1995 levels. Failure to do so could lead to large fines for local councils, which will ultimately be paid for by ratepayers.
arc21s strategy for dealing with residual waste is set out in its Waste Management Plan, which details proposals to use Mechanical Biological Treatment (MBT) and Energy from Waste (EfW) technologies which are already widely used in Great Britain and Europe.
How does the process work?
Residual waste (the contents of your black bin) will be forwarded to an MBT facility where recyclable and re-usable material is recovered mechanically. The remaining material can then be used as a fuel for the EfW facility to produce heat or electricity.
The technology will enable arc21 to manage waste from the region in an efficient and environmentally-friendly manner, providing something useful from waste which was previously just thrown into the ground.
Click on the questions (left) for more detailed information about MBT and EfW, and keep an eye on the News section for updates on how the Residual Waste Project is progressing.

Take a Virtual Tour of This a Tiny Texas House
Ever see a tiny house and wonder what it might look like on the inside? Well now is your chance to Take a Virtual Tour of This a Tiny Texas House! Tiny house living is on the rise, becoming more popular than ever in our time. Tiny house living used to be the norm when people were first coming over from Europe, they would live in houses that were just big enough for their families to live and sleep in. And the Native people who were already here would live in smaller houses as well, since they would sometimes be nomadic and have to take down their homes to move and then set up in a new location.
Throughout history we see these gypsy caravan type homes that people all over the world would use if they were of the nomadic type. This Tiny Texas House called the Tantra Temple built by Brad Kittel who is the owner of Tiny Texas Houses, it is one of his many houses that he has built, and it is pretty amazing! The whole house is split into 2 levels, and actually has quite a bit of room in it! This house will be a part of Tiny Texas Territories and Villages a project in Luling, Texas.
Brad does a whole walk through with the crew of Pure Salvage Living from Tiny Texas Houses who have filmed it and posted it on You Tube so that people can see how amazing tiny houses can be. The little tiny house temple is definitely something to see. It really does look like a gypsy caravan but way larger. Brad takes us on a tour through the home he built himself, for himself, showing us all of the little details along the way. Most of the items he has collected over the years in hopes to use them in a project and its so awesome that he has been able to!
The tiny house has two levels if you can believe it or not! It may not look like it would even have enough room to stand up in, but it totally does! There is a little kitchen area on the main floor, with an outdoor bathroom, that can be glassed off in the colder months and opened with screens in the warmer months so he can take a shower outside essentially! There is also a half bath in the upper level that he has a sink in and also will have a little toilet, for night time use. The upstairs is where he will have the living room and his writing desk. The bedroom is tucked away and is very spacious actually, with room for a little closet. He uses old confessional booths for his closet spaces! Isn't that a great idea? They would be the perfect size and carry some pretty amazing stories in them... He also has a few different meditation spots where he can do his daily mediations, even a swinging one in the future. His bed will be a swinging bed as well! I love all of the lovely stained glass and all of the amazing items that are from India. This is one incredible home that goes to show how possible it would be to create and build your own home!

Add a TA
Instructors may wish to add TEACHING ASSISTANTS or other COURSE STAFF to their Blackboard course. Blackboard allows you to select from a number of role types (e.g. Teaching Assistant, Grader, Course Builder and Guest) each with different levels of access.
Video Walkthrough
To Add Course Staff:
- Go to Control Panel. Click on Course Tools.
- Select UT Manage Users.
- Enter the UTORid for the Teaching Assistant or course staff member and click Go. (NB: The UTORid should be obtained from the individual.)
- Each individual you add to your course will need an identified Role. From the Add Role drop down menu, choose a role (e.g. TA, Grader, etc.). Click Add and then click OK.
Blackboard Roles
The Course Instructor automatically has access to all functions and tools within Blackboard. All other roles have more limited access. When adding someone to your course, you may choose from the following options:
- Teaching Assistant: A Teaching Assistant has access similar to that of an instructor. A TA can assist in creating and managing the Blackboard course (posting documents and announcements, moderating the discussion board, and so on). This role also provides the TA with access to the Grade Center allowing them to post or modify grades.
- Course Builder: The Course Builder role can be assigned to individuals who are helping you to develop the course in Blackboard but who do not need access to the Grade Center. Course Builders can edit course content but do not have access to the Grade Center; they cannot remove forums from the discussion board.
- Grader: You may select this role for TAs whose primary responsibility within the course is grading or for individuals who are providing administrative support for the course. Graders have the ability to add or edit information in the Grade Center. The Grader cannot add or change course content.
- Guest: Visiting Instructors, special guests, peers and colleagues (with UTORids) can be enrolled by the Instructor of the course using this tool. For information on adding individuals without UTORids, please see: http://www.utorauth.utoronto.ca/?page=ltguest and http://www.utorauth.utoronto.ca/?page=others
Important Considerations When Using Student Role
- Students must enroll in courses through ROSI (the official student record system) in order to receive academic credit. Students enrolled in your course through ROSI will appear on your class list in Blackboard. This tool must not be used to manually add students who have registered, or will be registering, in your course through ROSI. Student information in Blackboard is updated every business day.
- This tool can be used to add individuals who are not officially enrolled in the course through ROSI (e.g. auditors, students writing deferred exams). Students must understand that being manually enrolled in Blackboard is not equivalent to being enrolled in the course.

Understanding the Costs of Egg Donation
Egg Donation: A Worthwhile Investment in your Future
If the time is right for you to begin your family, selecting an egg donor may be a necessity in order for you to realize that dream. When you are adding the egg donor cost to your total investment with Growing Generations, it helps to understand the vital role that the egg donor plays.
Because we want to make sure that you, as an intended parent, have a wonderful and memorable journey all the way from pregnancy to delivery, we provide a full-service approach to egg donation, from the initial screening through the medical, psychological and legal referrals.
Egg Donation Changes Lives
For the donor, selling eggs is her way of making an impact on someone else's life in a way that will be treasured forever, and we want to ensure that you feel confident in your choice of egg donor. At Growing Generations we pride ourselves on the wide selection of women involved in our egg donation program. We carefully hand pick candidates who have characteristics such as creativity and intelligence, as well as cultural and ethnic diversity. We endeavor to select candidates with the drive and ambition to stand out from the crowd. Growing Generations' egg donors are highly sought after worldwide.
Each of the thousands of egg donation cycles we perform is unique, and the process is not as complicated as you may be think. You don't have to worry about a thing because we are here to guide you through the process, every step of the way.
Egg Donor Selection
Growing Generations makes the process of selecting your egg donor simple and stress-free. Once you have signed up for a free account you can begin browsing through our egg donor profiles. Once you've found a donor you like, leave it to us to make sure your schedules match and if both parties are ready to move forward, we can begin the donor screening process.
You can be confident that every penny of your egg donor cost is well worth the safety and assurance you will get in return.
The Growing Generations Value
Working with an Egg Donor
One of the key benefits of using an Egg Donor is enhancing your chance of success. A 2010 study from the Center for Disease Control on IVF success rates reports that 41.5% of women younger than 35 years of age had a live birth resulting from an embryo transfer. This is compared to 31.9% for women 35-37, 22.1% for women 38-40, 12.4% for women 41-42, and finally 5% for women 43-44.
Some important benefits of working with a GG egg donor include:
- Donors are between the ages of 21 and 30 years.
- Ability to select characteristics, such as ethnicity, education, intelligence, physical attributes, and geographic location.
- For experienced donors, statistics on previous donations, such as number of eggs retrieved, how many embryos created, and pregnancy and birth rates.
- Anonymous donation provides a comfortable distance between the donor and the intended parent for many clients.
- Multiple photographs and extensive profiles on every donor.

Understanding the Cost of an Egg Donor
What will this process cost me?
To the right is an example of the standard costs of a Growing Generations egg donor. In addition to these costs, be sure to factor in the medical costs for the in vitro fertilization (IVF) process. You can gather these costs directly from the IVF clinic you are working with. If you are not yet working with a clinic, we are happy to give you an estimate of these costs and refer you to a fertility specialist.
Please note that we offer financing for your egg donation process. The financing program lends up to $100,000, which means that you can use the funds to pay for your egg donor expenses, as well as our IVF medical costs. Click the link below to the right to apply.
If you would like to have a call to discuss the cost of egg donation and to better help you budget, please call us at 323-965-7500. The call is free. We are happy to help.

Logging is on by default. Please check under the "Settings - Configuration - Logging" to ensure it has not been turned off. The "Activity Log" tab also has a real-time display of current activity tha tis active by default. Please ensure the "Enable Activity Log" box is checked on that tab.
To answer your other question, let me describe how SpamFilter can be executed:
Please note that SpamFilter can be run in two different ways. The first is as a Windows service (the most common - SpamFilterSvc.exe), the second is as a standalone application using SpamFilter.exe. The latter is mostly used for troubleshooting, even though several users have asked to be able to run SpamFilter in non-service mode.
If you are already running SpamFilter as a service, subsequently running the standalone application (SpamFilter.exe) will open a new instance of SpamFilter, it will **not be the GUI for your service**. Please note that the service does show display a GUI (launched from an icon in the tray bar), but if you are accessing a Windows 2000 server remotely using Terminal Services will not be able to display the GUI. This is because Terminal Services in Win2K is not able to display the server's physical console.
Looking at the physical server's screen, or using a product like PCAnywhere, DameWare, VNC etc that displays the actual screen will instead reveal the console.
Microsoft fixed this in Windows 2003, and with this version of the operating system Terminal Services instead does allow RDP to connect to the Console.
Some Terminal Services clients have a checkbox in their settings to connect to the console. In the XP Remote Desktop, Microsoft (in)conveniently decided to not make it available. In this case, to view the server's physical console, you'll need to invoke Remote Desktop from the command line as follows to enable this:
mstsc -console
Having said all this, please ensure you are not attempting to start a second instance of SpamFilter (either standalone or service), while another one is still running.
Usually, administrators will run SpamFilter as a service. If you see the "Remove NT Service", that would indicate that the SpamFilter service has been installed on the service. However, if you see "running in standalone mode" it should indicate that the service is *not* running (or that the GUI you're seing is not for the SpamFilter service).
Hope all this helps.

We all know that Rapunzel was a long-haired girl who dwelled in a tower, separated from her birthparents until rescued by a prince. Disney's charming, funny and deliciously entertaining Tangled makes more than a few tweaks to the Brothers Grimm version.
Here, Rapunzel (Mandy Moore) is a princess who acquired in utero, from a magical plant, the power to stave off death. She will lose that power if her golden hair is cut. The woman who benefited from that plant for centuries, Mother Gothel (Donna Murphy), kidnaps Rapunzel and raises her in that tower as her own - until the eve of Rapunzel's 18th birthday, when a thief named Flynn (Chuck's Zachary Levi) is convinced to help her venture out for the first time.
Screenwriter Dan Fogelman - who worked with co-directors Nathan Greno and Byron Howard on Disney's Bolt - effectively creates a metaphor for teen rebellion and overprotective parenting, with Moore getting a terrific sequence swinging back and forth between elated freedom and deeply ingrained guilt. There's nothing particularly groundbreaking about the character - or about Levi's ne'er-do-well with a heart of gold - but the filmmakers are savvy enough to provide an emotional hook upon which to hang a familiar Disney format.
And truly, there's nothing new under the sunny locks of Tangled. The original songs, by Disney stalwart Alan Menken (The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast) and lyricist Glen Slater, hit the four required elements of every Disney musical: the hero/heroine's "I want" song ("When Will My Life Begin?"); the villain song ("Mother Knows Best"); the show-stopping production number ("I've Got a Dream"); and the love song ("I See the Light").
The comic relief comes in large part from a pair of anthropomorphized animals - a determined, Inspector Javert-like horse named Maximus and Rapunzel's pet chameleon, Pascal. Even individual sequences feel familiar - the introduction of Flynn to Rapunzel echoing the animated prologue of the recent Enchanted, the romance-in-a-rowboat moment recalling The Little Mermaid, and the climax more than faintly duplicating that of Beauty and the Beast.
So why is something that sticks so rigidly to familiar components still so praiseworthy? Because it nails those components. The songs are as Broadway-catchy as anything Disney has crafted in the last decade, with the "I've Got a Dream" sequence in particular rendered with hilarious energy. All three central voice performances are terrific, particularly Levi, having great fun with the scoundrel role. The comedy proves genuinely amusing, while the action is terrifically choreographed for excitement and laughs.
Disney has again demonstrated that it understands how to integrate smart storytelling and family-friendly characters with fun and feeling.

"Honey? You need to get up." Damian shook me.
"Mm… just a little longer…"
"There's something wrong."
I sat up, groggy, feeling around for his hand. He was right; it was strangely silent. "What happened?" Without the music denoting the hours, it was impossible to tell what time it was. "Don't they have back up sources to prevent time from disappearing like this?" I'd heard about it in our history lessons, but like everyone else, never believed it could happen to us.
"I don't know? Even power outages shouldn't affect our day like this."
"Are the kids awake?"
Damian laughed a little. "They're actually excited and everything, can you believe it? I thought they'd be worried, but since there's no way of deciding what time it is, there's no school today. But even so," he became serious, "we should probably figure out what happened. I can check with Zane next door to see if it's the same for them."
I sighed. "I guess I'll get them breakfast, then. Up!"
His hand was warm, as usual, a sharp contrast to my oddly cool ones. Some days it felt like I was just a little too off-center, and my feet would miss my slippers, but today wasn't one of those days. In my head, I gave myself one hundred points for that perfect landing.
I waited until Damian had moved around the bed and stopped, and, as usual, I gave him a hug on the way out the door.
"You don't have to do that every time, you know."
"Do what?"
He coughed a laugh. "Hug me."
"Hug? Who's hugging? It's just convenient, is all," I teased.
We walked hand in hand, sliding along the wall, into the bathroom. His hand grazed against my back, trailed down my left arm, and his nails tapped against the counter. My fingers wrapped around the toothbrush, exactly a palm away from the edge of the sink, and the toothpaste right next to that. It may have been slightly OCD to be so precise, but it was better than having trouble finding stuff all the time.
"…not here, but it should be…" mumbled Damian from my side.
"Toothbrush is two hands to the left and one hand up from the bottom edge of the sink."
There was a moment's pause before a slight clattering- his hand bumping into his cup, before an Aha!. "One of these days, you're going to forget where you put something, and I'll know where it is."
"That's never going to happen." My fingers trailed over to where I knew his would be. It was a sweet gesture as much as it was safety. They interlocked with his, rough against smooth, a soothing feeling. His nails scraped gently against my fingers, and I returned the gesture.
For the few moments that we had to be separated to actually brush our teeth, wash our faces, was always frightening. Today, it was particularly so- to not know how long we were standing apart, and a cold emptiness settled in my stomach without the touch of another human. I tried to recall morning to time myself, but it somehow wasn't right. And what if I was too fast? or too slow?
Sometimes I would hear a slight knocking of his knees against the cabinet, and I knew he wasn't clumsy enough to actually do it on accident.
I knew it was for me.
There was a humming of morning, getting louder and louder, and then, "Mother!"
I knew it shouldn't have been so startling, but since our son Apollo's voice had dropped several octaves, every time I heard him call out for me it was almost as if Damian just called me "mother". If it weren't for the word "mother", and his trademark humming, it would've been nearly impossible to differentiate the two.
To my left, the almost-same person said, "I'll go down and help him. Be careful, okay?"
"Of course."
Squeezing the last of the lotion out of my bottle, I made a mental note to order some more. I knew some people who didn't bother to put on make-up at all, but it was always incredibly obvious when someone didn't even try to make themselves respectable. The coarse dryness of some people's hands-!
"Mom?" Claire walked into the bathroom, almost tripping on the carpet for the umpteenth time. "Can you comb my hair? It's all tangled and gross."
"Kneel." She knelt. "Have you already eaten?"
"Nah, I wasn't hungry."
"Claire!" I yanked on the brush on accident.
"Ow! Okay, I'll eat! You don't have to torture me!"
"Sorry, sorry." I tried to make sure that I didn't brush her forehead on accident too, making sure my fingers marked where her hairline began. "Why didn't you eat?"
"It's just that there were some girls gossiping about how Ash has gotten fat."
I chuckled. "I'm sure Ashley is fine."
"No! You know that ring that we all share? She couldn't wear it on her middle finger anymore!"
"How did you know she couldn't?"
"We were doing some poetry circle reading, and she was between Dem and Eb, and neither hand was wearing it, and they said she'd gotten fat! What if I do and they just stop talking to me?"
I pulled the brush through again. "Does this mean you'll finally lotion?"
"Ugh, that's gross. Nobody does that."
"I do!"
"That's because you're old."
Claire was in that stage, of refusing to change her feelance and saying that she only wanted someone who would love her for who she was beyond that, because beauty was only skin deep and when we got old, wouldn't she want someone who'd still love to take her in his arms and protect her forever?
I snapped a rubber band around her hair, tugging a little on purpose. "Now don't be mean to your old mother."
"It's just true." She bounced up, nearly knocking into me. "Thanks, Mom."
"Mhm, now go eat something."
She turned the doorknob to leave the bathroom, but then stopped and asked, "What happened to morning? It's so weird and… scary, a little bit. Exciting too, I think."
Leave it to the children to bring up the most obvious weirdness last, and to find it exciting of all things. "I'm not sure."
"Since earlier, strange things have been happening to me."
"Strange? How so?" I absentmindedly pulled out the hair in the comb, making sure to drop it in the same pile so it would be easy to clean up afterwards.
"There was some other… quality to me. It wasn't a new scent or anything, but it was… different, somehow. Is something wrong with me?"
My hands caressed her cheek. "Oh sweetie. There's nothing wrong with you. You're beautiful." My thumb traced her nose, lips, ears. "There's nothing wrong with you."
"But something was different… I think. "
A chill spread down my spine, and for some reason, I felt like she might've been telling the truth. "If it happens again, just tell me, okay?"
"Okay. And tomorrow, we'll have morning again, right?"
"Of course, darling."
The panic in the town was so strong one could almost smell it, although the kids just seemed happy to be given a day off of school. It was almost suffocating. There were more accidents than usual, with people not being careful and running, forgetting how dangerous it was to do that without guidance. Apparently no one's morning came, and some of the more sensitive felt the shakes again. Some swore that the aliens had finally descended. A few mentioned a strange phenomenon when they woke up, and their confused testimonies sounded a lot like Claire's. As if they had been able to feel something more than just feeling, or smell something more than smelling, or hear something more than hearing. Others scolded those for making things up to frighten the children, when in fact it was they who were frightened the most. It was chaos.
Childishly, I asked Damian, "What about afternoon? What about evening? What happens if those don't come either? Will it just be an endless night?"
"We'll be okay. I think today there was just some kind of freak of nature accident. It happens."
"It's never happened before."
He squeezed, reaffirming his presence. "It'll be okay."
The hours dragged on- or perhaps just minutes, it was hard to tell. Perhaps it was only just a few hours after I'd crawled into bed with Damian, perhaps it was many, many more. I'd never been one to wake on my own- none of us were- and without day, it was just an endless empty loop.
Damian made to speak with the neighbors, and the children went to play with the others. I reminded them to wear something to keep warm, but there was no way of telling whether or not they heard me. And, alone for the first time since I was born, probably, with only occasional whispers sneaking past presumably a crack in the doorway, or perhaps a window down the hall… Without the guidance and safety of another person, I was too afraid to find out which.
I slid slowly along the hallway, fingers running over every bump on the wall, trying to count explicitly in my head how many steps it took to the kitchen. Something struck my foot- without the morning, it didn't resonate and I couldn't decipher what it was without bending over.
Crouching and picking up the foreign object, I recognized it as one of my great-grandmother's books- one that she'd received as a memory of her ancestors. The lack of hills and valleys on the pages was so alien- she'd always told me it was given to her as a present, but never found out why it was just an empty book, devoid of words. For the most part, we didn't read all that much anymore; it was much quicker to just learn everything verbally, by rote, rather than spending time forming tedious words on pages that would just fade away to illegible flatness. There was something ancient about scent of the paper, the smell of glue, and strange soft oldness in the weathered creases.
Claire must have been digging through our attic, to find this artifact. As I ran my hand across it though, I noticed a bizarre change in texture. It wasn't bumpy, and it was so subtle that I could only tell if I scrolled very slowly across the page- but it was occasionally my finger would slide against it unnaturally. There was something smooth on the blank paper.
But what was it? A stain? It was too straight, too rhythmic to be a random unclean spill, and upon further inspection each page had that same strange feeling. Did our ancestors' generation use books that could barely be felt? No wonder ours were much more pronounced; it must've been incredibly difficult for them to read anything at all. It was a good improvement, then, for ours to be that much more legible. Keller was to be celebrated for his technological advancements.
"Mom?" Claire's voice rang out.
"I'm in the study." Knowing that she usually had trouble with direction, I gave up on the Marco-Polo outdoor approach and immediately switched to our indoor way of finding people- tapping the wall.
Disturbingly, she popped up behind me without so much as a return of a knock. "What are you doing on the ground?"
It was also strange that she stopped before she touched me, strange that she knew I was on the ground when I hadn't spoken and usually was not that assumption made.
"There's something on the empty books. Here, feel!"
Claire shifted uncomfortably, her new plastic jacket rustling against the handrail. "Actually, that book is really freaky. That's what I was talking about earlier…"
"It's smoother here, in the center, just a little. Or perhaps damper. It's hard to tell."
She suddenly sat up excitedly, her arm weaving into mine. "Mom! Can you feel it too?"
"Yeah, it's-"
She interrupted, "No, I mean, don't touch it, can't you feel there's something different?"
I was confused. In every way, it was just a poorly constructed book or novel. "No… what do you mean?" It could've been old too, perhaps. But if it was, it would've just been a long line of periods. No curve of C or O or reassuring straight edges of A or T. Or maybe for much, much smaller fingers, and…
She elbowed me, her cheek rubbing against my forearm. "That's what I was talking about earlier. There's something… different about it. Maybe it's not that it feels different. Maybe it's a new smell? Or a taste… or maybe it makes a sound that's brand new… but it's not any of those."
"Well, try to explain it as much as you can."
There was a clicking sound, and Claire gasped. She yanked the book out of hand without knowing where it was, and ripped out a page of the book. A part of me felt a change in the air, but I couldn't quite place it- it was different, as Claire kept insisting- but different in an unfamiliar way.
"What are you doing?"
"For some reason, this page makes me think of food. How to make a chocolate cake or something…"
"Can you read it?" I was astonished. "You have an impressive talent, to be able to read this. I can just barely even tell there's anything on the page!"
"Chocolate cake, cocoa, cream, and a bunch of numbers. A recipe…" Her voice was shaking. "But I'm not reading it," she whispered, as if she were saying something dangerous. "I'm not touching the page. But they're there."
A low laugh came from behind. It surprised us both; neither of us had noticed anyone walking up behind us. "Don't be silly, Claire." Damian- or Apollo- said.
His hand weaved into mine, and I knew it was my son. "Apollo, don't be mean to your younger sister," I scolded.
"Hmph. What does she think is, psychic?"
But Claire was fascinated by the idea. "Maybe! Maybe I am psychic! Maybe that's what's so different about it!"
"Claire, honey…"
She let go of me, continuing excitedly. "No, it's like those people in stories- those with the third ear or something on their forehead that tells them what's on the page?"
"Claire, those are-"
She hmphed at my tone of voice. "I can! I know, somehow, that this is a recipe book!"
Apollo coughed. "It's not like we would actually know either way. Hey Mom," he nudged me, "maybe we could send Claire to the circus. She could make money, and I could buy that new- ow!" I'd squeezed his hand tightly to make him behave.
"A circus?" My daughter's voice was filled with slight disgust.
"You know," Apollo mused, "if I could read books without touching them at all, test taking would be so easy. So the question here is, why are Claire's reading grades so low?" He snickered.
She stood up beside me. "You know what, Apollo? I can prove it. I can feel the entire room layout without having to move at all."
"Yeah? Mom always has everything in the exact same place- I could too."
"Bet you can't walk from the kitchen to the living room without sidling the wall!"
"Bet you can't either!"
Before I could stop her, Claire ran off. And it was dangerous to run anywhere, but especially in a small building, without holding the handrails. "Claire!"
"I'm fine!"
I waited for the inevitable crash, but there wasn't one. On a normal day, I could walk around without touching rails no problem, because I knew the long couch was against the right wall, the coffee table exactly two of my own feet away from that couch, the armchair precisely seven from the foyer. But even if Claire was remotely as careful as I was- which I knew she wasn't- if she were just trying to show off after having memorized all the steps, she still would've had trouble with the armchair because Damian had just moved it so it was only two steps from the foyer. In less than ten seconds- an insanely short amount of time- she had made a loop from the kitchen and back. And to prove it, she handed me an oven mitt, something I'd always kept in the drawer under the oven.
Apollo groaned when he realized what object she'd brought back. "How did you do that?"
"I'm psychic, that's what." Even without touching her, I knew Claire was smiling. She moved away from us, and as she stepped, I heard another loud click, followed by a thud and shrill scream from the little girl.
"Ow…" She crawled back over to us, her knees scratching against the rough floor.
Even Apollo sounded worried. "What happened?"
At his question I noticed the strange sensation had disappeared. Claire wailed, "I'm not psychic anymore!" She curled up around my arm, shaking. "That perfect floor map that was in my head just two seconds ago is gone! And…" she fumbled for the book, crumpling the recipe, "…I don't know what it says anymore! It's not talking to me! I thought I was going to be different and cool for a change, and-"
Apollo hugged my other arm, rustling to hold his sister's hand. "You know, psychics are known to not be able to hear all the time. Only when the circumstances are right. Maybe that click was a signal for your psychic abilities."
Claire sniffed. "You think so?"
I wasn't much of a believer in clairaurance, but her brief ability to traverse the house without relying on either the reverberations of the day or handrails was proof that there might've been something more. "Apollo might be right- I felt it was different in the air during the time you knew more than you should. Maybe that was like… like a wave of psychic ability, and you were lucky enough to pick it up."
Just as the words left my mouth, morning came back, transitioning into the softer prelude of the afternoon. Relief was almost palpable at the sign of normality. Apollo whistled along with it, and Claire got up, mumbling about her latent abilities as a psychic. Linked hand in hand, we went to find Damian, the outdated book forgotten.

Only a 250-yard walk from the beautiful sandy beach of Whitesand Bay, this charming little row of three delightful and comfortably furnished holiday cottages commands magnificent views over the bay and Sennen Cove. On a quiet lane leading only to the cliffs, they have been very tastefully converted from a spacious Victorian house and are stunningly set in several acres of shared natural grounds; home to a wonderful variety of wildlife which can easily be seen from the steep beach path and the cottages themselves.The beach at Whitesand is magnificent; a splendid mile of sand which has been awarded Blue Flag status and is excellent for surfing (lifeguards operate throughout the summer, and there is also a ban on dogs from 1st May to 30th September. Dogs are permitted year round on nearby Gwenver Beach). Sennen Cove (½ mile) is a picturesque little fishing village looking out over the bay. It offers shops, pub, restaurants – even a lifeboat station – all within walking distance. There are some beautiful walks along the coast towards Cape Cornwall in one direction, and beyond Land's End in the other. The famous outdoor Minack Theatre is only 3 miles away and Penzance (7 miles) boasts a mainline station, shops, inns, swimming-pool, sailing and tennis. There is a golf course at St Just (4 miles) and facilities for squash and badminton are available locally. Picturesque St Ives (a renowned haunt of artists) is 15 miles away along the spectacular north coast.The Carn Towan cottages are perfectly positioned for enjoying a Cornish holiday – and are cosily heated throughout, with double glazing, making them ideal for all-year-round breaks. Shops ½ mile.

Karl Mullen, born Dublin, Ireland, lives and works in Philadelphia. He has developed his own non-traditional approach to art making and materials, utilizing walnut oil, raw powder pigment and a wax medium that coalesce into color-saturated, luminous images. Painting largely with his hands, Karl creates distinctive, poetic figures that float on fields of color. The imagery in his paintings is born out of Irish mythology, family and dreams.
Recent shows of Karl's work include:
Mullen paintings reside in many private collections in the United States and Europe and in the permanent holdings of Robert Morris College, The Polk Museum and The Hurn Museum. They were also showcased in the PBS syndicated TV series Rare Visions & Roadside Revelations and are included frequently in art/design magazines such as Home Accents and Elle Decor.
Karl Mullen also takes a highly original approach to music making -- painting with sound. He avidly documents city and street sounds and transforms them into soundtracks for theater and contemporary dance companies. He is regularly commissioned by Philadelphia's Koresh Dance Company, has guest composed for Donald Byrd Spectrum Dance Theater in Seattle.
Karl is also a singer/songwriter and is currently working on a new CD, much of which was recorded in a cabin in Appalachia. In the 1970s Karl founded and led the legendary Pittsburgh Punk band Carsickness. The Ploughman's Lunch and Karl Mullen Band followed, and his song "Whiskey from the Field" — recorded by Scottish folk legends The Battlefield Band and acclaimed Irish folk artist Pat Kilbride — received a Grammy nomination.
Karl is highly engaged in the community and believes strongly in the importance of art making and creative encouragement in children's lives. He taught art for many years at The Jewish Community Center and in Montessori Schools in Pittsburgh, and most recently was invited to Manhattan's Ross Global Academy to collaborate with students in one of the most progressive art programs in the country.
As a result of his artistic involvement in the community he received the People's Award from The Thomas Merton Center and was named one of the region's Top 50 Cultural People by the Pittsburgh Post Gazette.
That same sense of community translates well to the Internet, and Karl welcomes you to join him on

A Williamsburg man has pleaded guilty to possessing and distributing child pornography.
Kentucky Attorney General Jack Conway said William Parrish, 39, pleaded guilty Tuesday in Whitley Circuit Court to one count of possessing matter portraying a sexual performance by a minor, and three counts of distributing such materials.
The charges stemmed from an undercover investigation by the attorney general's cybercrimes unit. Authorities seized computers containing child porn images and videos from Parrish's home in 2012.
Prosecutors have recommended that Parrish serve six years in prison.
He is scheduled for sentencing Oct. 6.

The WordCube Android application is available in both free and paid versions. The main difference between the WordCube free version and the WordCube Pro (paid version) is that WordCube Pro doesn't display any ads. If you don't mind seeing ads while playing WordCube, it is better to go for the free version.
The aim of the game is to make as many words (each word should contain at least four letters) using the letter in the center of the 3x3 grid and one (or more, depending on the combination of the letters that you get) that has all the 9 letters. This game is a version of the word puzzles that are offered in various dailies across the world under different names.
What's great about WordCube is that it lets you post your scores on Twitter! If you have friends playing WordCube, you can post your scores on Twitter and boast about how good you are when it comes to word puzzles.
You can play a demo version of this game at stealthcopter.com to decide whether you like it.
- slide 2 of 5
User Interface and Design
The user interface of this game is very simple. It has a 3x3 grid that shows you the letters and you have to use them to play the game. Below the grid is a text box that lets you add the words. Right beside the text box are two buttons, one that acts as a backspace key and the other that is used to add the words.
The main menu lets you choose the next and previous cube (or grid of words) and also it has a new grid of words that is updated everyday. There should be enough word grids to choose from that you can keep playing until you are satisfied, but this is best as a daily puzzle so this app has great longevity.
- slide 3 of 5
System Requirements
The WordCube Android app runs on all versions of Android that are greater than Android version 1.5, therefore this app can be considered to run on almost all the Android phones out there and you should have no issues installing this app. The WordCube app takes just 108KB and should install in seconds even if you have an average connection to the Internet.
- slide 4 of 5
Final Verdict
WordCube is not the toughest of word games out there, although it depends on the letters you get and how good your vocabulary is. What makes WordCube so special is that you can play it while waiting for your friend, use it to fill all those one or two minute gaps when you are alone and get bored. It is also a really good game for kids under ten who will find games like WordCube interesting. Not only will it keep them entertained, but it will also help to build their vocabulary.

By Kirsti Knolle
FRANKFURT (Reuters) - Publishers need to get to know their readers and find out what they want if they are to halt the loss of market share to online powerhouses such as Amazon, industry figures say.
Until a few years ago, publishers wielded power over readers' selection of books though in-store promotions and newspaper reviews.
Now readers increasingly order their books online or download them onto electronic reading devices, write their own reviews and get ideas for what to read next from peers online.
"With the shift to digital, publishers are confronted with an entirely new way of dealing with content and stories," said Sebastian Posth, chief executive of Berlin-based Publishing Data Networks, which offers analytics to the industry.
Amazon and Apple have used terabytes of data on their customers' reading and other habits to gain control of the market, leaving traditional publishers scrambling to find a way to get through to their readers.
Data analysis has become a necessary means for publishers to deal with the new digital era, Posth said.
"The publishing industry needs to learn this lesson if it wants to survive," he said.
The music, television and film industries have already gone digital with software and platforms that tap into consumers' demand for on-the-go media content for mobile devices and customize content based on users' habits and preferences.
"Most folks in the editorial and content production areas of mainstream publishers are unable to give even the most basic metrics on who their actual customers are," said Kristen McLean, Miami-based founder and chief executive of start-up Bookigee, speaking at the just-ended Frankfurt Book Fair.
The music, television and film industries have already gone digital with software and platforms that tap into consumers' demand for on-the-go media content for mobile devices and customize content based on users' habits and preferences.
The publishing industry has been "super resistant" to the idea that it should let audience insights drive content development, McLean said.
"Big retailers know our customers better than we do," said Nathan Hull, digital development director at British media group Pearson's Penguin business.
A hurdle that publishers must overcome in building a relationship with customers is the market dominance of Amazon and Apple.
In the United States, 44 percent of books - paperback or electronic - was purchased online in 2012, up from 39 percent in 2011, according to data from service provider Bowker. In Britain, the picture is pretty much the same.
Amazon offers not just a virtual book shop but has expanded into many services traditionally provided by publishers, such as translating and marketing, and has a fast-growing self-publishing business.
According to estimates by Austrian industry consultant Ruediger Wischenbart, Amazon has a 65 percent share of the U.S. market for e-books, bolstered by its Kindle device. Apple, which has integrated books into its iTunes platform, has 20 percent.
A number of initiatives have sprung up around the world to launch competitor products to the Kindle, such as the Tolino, born from a collaboration of several German retail book chains and telecoms company Deutsche Telekom.
Europe is expected to be the largest e-book market by 2017, worth $19 billion, according to Forrester Research.
Wischenbart said the battle against Amazon is not yet lost.
"Look at what happened to Microsoft," Wischenbart says. "About a decade ago they practically had a monopoly in software platforms. This is very different now."
One tool publishers have started using is "social reading", which refers to reading-focused social networking sites such as Goodreads, recently acquired by Amazon.
Goodreads has 20 million members and works with publishers to create marketing campaigns that reach readers based on their reading preferences.
Random House has introduced its own reader's circle with Scribd, a document-hosting site with around 80 million users.
These sites are "global and give publishers a one-stop opportunity to reach markets beyond their natural national audiences," said U.S. publishing consultant Mike Shatzkin, CEO of The Idea Logical Company.
At the Frankfurt Book Fair, a German reader community called "flipintu" was launched, which applies the concept of online music streaming services such as Spotify to the book market.
To battle the status quo, Penguin and Random House merged this year to gain an upper hand in the digital book market, but so far CEO Markus Dohle has kept a low profile.
"We're doing our homework, our research and development with different business models and we are doing it cautiously," he said at the book fair.
"We will take our time, we want quality over speed and there is no rush. We are building a company for the next 100 years and not for 100 days."
(Corrects paragraph 21 in story published on October 17 to say that Goodreads does not provide users' details to publishers)

Matthew Kato has been a GI stalwart since 2000, starting out on the Game Informer website that came before the website that preceded this website you're reading now! Kato has always been a lover of sports games, but has fit in more than enough time for everything from Metal Gear to Vagrant Story. Like most people back in the day, he went from the Atari 2600 to the NES, but he didn't partake of the next round of consoles until his brother told him that there was an officially licensed football game called Madden that had to be played on a Sega Genesis. Hired in part because Andy McNamara thought that a four-year degree in Japanese meant he could speak the language fluently, Kato soon proved to be more talented at putting together the magazine's news section – something he learned from GI luminary, the late Paul Anderson.

Lawd, these two have got some really bad hair (Casey looks like he just took a Tupperware bowl off his head) ... but I don't imagine there is much discriminating taste at the Galilee First Baptist Church in the first place. The coldest cockles of my heart are warmed by the happy faces of these two unwed soon-to-be parents ... you can just feel the joy emanating from their felicitous countenances. I bet the couple were prayin' for a miracle during their church visit ... I dunno that they can really count on prayers to save them at this point. They just need to grin and bear it ... and prepare for a long life together as parents. Happy Mother's Day, JL!!! [Source]
