Caesars Palace celebrates with a bang on Saturday, Jan. 28 — we're talking firecrackers and a traditional lion eye painting ceremony at the hotel's porte cochère starting at 5 p.m. After the eye painting, the lions continue through Palace Court, Nobu Hotel, Beijing Noodle No. 9, Bacchanal Buffet and the first floor of MR CHOW.

The iconic observation wheel will be lit in red and gold the night of Friday, Jan. 27. Ride the High Roller, and you'll get Chinese New Year-themed frame when you order a souvenir photo.
Caesars Palace
The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace welcomes back its dazzling 22-foot-long by six-foot-wide and 12-foot-high dragon. The massive 950-pound steel-framed dragon is adorned with 30,000 flickering red and amber LED lights. Located on the Fortuna Terrace near the casino entrance, the vibrant dragon stays on display throughout the Chinese New Year season.
While you're at The Forum Shops, don't miss the annual parade on Monday, Jan. 30 starting at 10 a.m. One-hundred twenty local students (kindergarten and fifth grade) perform the traditional dragon parade throughout the shops.

I am a huge Apple fan. Pretty obvious fact being a member of this site. I collect all things Apple but mainly focus on the "Steve returns" era. I also collect retro Nintendo. All things NES to GameCube.
So what do you collect? Watches? ALF pogs? Haha
Also how does your partner cope? My girlfriend probably would faint if I brought home yet another iMac G3
My collection is much the same as yours. TAM and 5500 are my earliest machines. I focus to on the Steve returns machines. I only like the aesthetically pleasing and unusual models. I also collect iPods and assorted Apple merchandise and promotional material.
I have a healthy NES, SNES through to Wii U collection as well.
My wife hates my collecting. Says it takes up too much room.
I don't really collect any Apple or electronic stuff.
But I do have a pretty sizeable (about 1500-2000) trance record collection (I used to be a trance DJ)
Current collectionsBarrell aged Russian Imperial Stouts. This is my only real collectable. I have some beers I intended to age for 10 years or so. I do buy alot of coffee beans of varying origins and blends,but I wouldn't say I collect them (mainly because coffee has an extremely short shelf life). When doing a tasting session I like to collecf a copy of the trading notes if they've been prepared. I have a monthly coffee subscription and have an electronic and paper copy of the tasting notes and vouchers that I get with it.
I also own 3 trumpets, the trumpet I learnt to play on which appeared in my grandfather's second hand shop about 20 years ago. The trumpet I completed high school with about 10-15 years ago and my current playing horn (I'm on a break atm though.)
Lego. I like Lego.
Macs, Vintage Electrical Fittings (Australian), certain series of books, Insulators, vintage Australian (60s/70s) Dial phones, coins and stamps...
I collect way too much
Kilograms, but I'm working on reducing my collection
I have a tiny collection of unique stickers. Well, I think they're unique - things like Daily WTF stickers, Gmail keyboard shortcut stickers, that kind of thing.
Oh, black Apple logo stickers, can't forget those.
Awesome. I have some other apple bits and pieces like a Macworld iMac G4 poster. I have always wanted a TAM. Maybe this is the year haha. I don't have a big WiiU collection but I am looking forward to the new star fox.
I'm a collector at heart - I collect various things, from golden age comics, to 1st edition scifi/fantasy, to musical instruments. I also had a half-garageful of vintage Macs that I gave away a couple of years ago to a fellow MacTalker. I owned a few vintage cars for a while too, but sold them when I started a family. I only have a few select items now - my wife keeps me grounded and ensures I don't hoard too much!
Yes I think thats me as well. Collector at heart. Something about a complete set of something which is so appealing, yet I never seem to get there
My daughter and I collect Lego too. We have way too much Lego! I received the Lego Death Star for Christmas. I have not opened the box as yet, but am tempted to sell it as it is too big to store in my house long term and seems to have doubled in price now. It' selling for $1200 on eBay now.
If that Secret Of Monkey Island Lego set miraculously gets the signatures it needs to be considered and manufactured then I might become a Lego collector too.
Spores, moulds, and fungus...
Vinyl. But I'm not crazy about it. I just buy records I like, not stuff that I think will be valuable one day. Because nobody is ever going to think that a 12" copy of Prince's 'Batdance' is valuable in any way.
My wife encourages me to some degree. Sometimes her advice will be 'if you want it, you should buy it'. At other times she's more 'maybe think about it'. That's usually her reaction when I find another Prince single.
I collect vinyl. I recently started to update my analog rigv and I am now buying vinyl of artists I couldnt get on vinyl when I bought a CD version. Some are audiophile pressings too. Some copies are of newer artists Ive discovered too.
t get on vinyl when I bought a CD version. Some are audiophile pressings too. Some copies are of newer artists I
I've grown a bit of a fascination for Polaroid cameras, got about 7 so far from various eras
Rotring Fountain Pens. Most of these rotate through everyday use too. I've got a few interesting pieces and am still keeping an eye out for a Rotring 600 or two in the various finishes but prices are just going insane (should have bought them a few years back when they were only crazy).
These are the real pens:New Orleans - BlueEsprit - Tourmaline GreenEsprit - Metallic BlueFreeway - BlueFreeway - SilverFreeway - RedNewton (600 inspired?) - SilverNewton (600 inspired?) - LavaNewton - CopperRotring 900 - Silver
These ones are the cheap plastic "disposable" versions (although they all use the same cartridges as the real ones).Altro - PinkRivette - BlueRivette - GreenRivette - Transparent BlueSurf - BlueSurf - GreenSurf - YellowSurf - Transparent RedSurf - Transparent RedSkynnAltro - PinkRivette - BlueRivette - GreenRivette - Transparent BlueSurf - BlueSurf - GreenSurf - YellowSurf - Transparent RedSurf - Transparent RedSkynn
I'm a fan of rotring myself
I don't collect anything anymore, I quickly lose interest in things. I did have a huge hardcover book collection but I donated the majority of that when I got an iPad. I started collecting amiibos but I got over that almost as quickly as I got into it. I started a vinyl collection but that lost out to the convenience of spotify and airplay.
Would it be a stretch to say I collect video games? I have a massive backlog on my shelf and in steam but I just love the darn things. For the longest time I never considered myself a gamer, but I bought a Wii U after seeing people play Smash Bros and it awoke something inside of me I tell you!
I'm slowly getting into fountain pens. It's hard to justify in an increasingly digital world though.
If anything I find it easier! These are something unique and beautiful to use, even if it's less than it used to be. I get lots of comments on them and have started noticing more people using them. Seems people want something nice to write with for those few times they need to.
Personally I'm a suit, tie (with tie pin), cuff link and fountain pen sort of guy... Something a little different compared to many of my colleagues who have abandoned the tie and jacket most of the time. I know it's not needed so much anymore, but I like it.

The Harbor
Lagos, Portugal
The Harbor Lagos Reviews
5 reviews
Oct 19, 2005
The harbor has a lot of boat rides available to tour the famous caves of Lagos. The prices usually run from 15-20 euros and it is worth the ride. The caves are beautiful and the water is an amazing aqua blue. The boats sometimes don't run if the water is too choppy so call the companies ahead of time or ask in the morning. The harbor itself is so pretty and amazingly clean. It reminded me of the opening scene of Giligan's Island because everything there was so neat. It's a nice relaxing walk around the harbor on a warm sunny day.

Manless Hiking at Russian Ridge
Today I took a long hike. Randy is away visiting relatives so I went on my own…manless hiking. I had invited some lady friends and my sister but I guess they couldn't get rid of their men because no one else decided to join me. Of course, they may have been working or they may have not wanted to go hiking on the top of the Santa Cruz Mountains in an impending storm. Either way it ended up I went alone except for my NEX5 camera. This was ok. First I went to the local surplus store and bought a lightweight rain jacket. I was going to wear my big heavy one but if it didn't rain I would be stuck with a big heavy jacket to carry around, not the greatest thing when you're hiking.Read More
Colorful Sunsets in Yosemite National Park
Last month I made reservations in one of our favorite places, Yosemite National Park, for an "all U can heat" Camp Curry tent cabin during the full moon and off we went for the weekend. The "all U can heat" special runs for only certain dates. You pay what the temperature was the night before plus $20. This is a great deal! Camp Curry was sold out Friday and Saturday nights for that weekend, so we stayed at the Yosemite Inn in Mariposa on Saturday and checked into Camp Curry on Sunday. Monday was a holiday so we were able to stay for an extra day. It is so nice to live close enough to go to such an amazing place like Yosemite for the weekend.Read More

HHH speaks…
HHH comes to the ring, grabs a chair and sits in the middle of the ring. He says it never ceases to amaze him how underappreciated he is. He asks these people if they knew what he went through, especially with making Randy Orton and Batista into stars out of nothing. He then goes on to talk about Evolution's glory days. He says some said they were unstoppable, but that was not true. He says the only thing that could stop Evolution, was Evolution. He then talks about Batista and his selfishness and how he wants to make a name for himself now. He says Batista made a BAD decision to turn on HHH after winning the Royal Rumble. HHH says he guarantees Batista would have beaten JBL and John Cena, hell, even both of them at the same time, but instead he chose to stay here. "And you… will… lose.." He says Dave, you are NOT good enough. He says he doesn't even know why Batista would even consider himself at HHH's level. HHH says he has beaten them ALL! HHH says Batista wasn't even at WrestleMania long enough to get a cup of coffee, but he has beaten them all. He says there was one little asterisk on his record with Chris Benoit, but he proved last week that he too can be beaten. He says there comes a time that the animal turns around and bites the hand that fed him. He says that he will have to do the right thing, and lay the animal down, and put him to sleep…
Referee: Chad Patton
The music of Chris Jericho hit in the arena as he made his way to the ring for this tag team match, teaming with the Intercontinental Champion, Shelton Benjamin, against former multiple time tag team champions, Edge and Christian, and all of these men will battle it out at WrestleMania 21 in the Money in the Bank Ladder Match for a future shot at the World Championship

Benoit chopped Edge but then Tomko came in and hit a Ladder to the gut of Benoit and then a shot to the back. Benoit was down in pain as Tomko stood over him as Christian screamed that it was Money in the Bank.
Flair convincing..
Flair meets with all the lumberjacks for tonight's match. He says all of this men were betrayed by Batista because he did not go to Smackdown and instead he stole their spotlight. Flair goes on to talk about how Evolution has nice cars, tons of women, and so on. He tells one of the lumberjacks to make an impact tonight… each lumberjack was hand picked by HHH and Ric Flair..
Bischoff goes into Batista's locker room and tells him that he never knew anything about the lumberjacks and so on. He says Batista is a marked man, has he ever felt that way before? Batista says he has not, but he is going to feel like a marked man after he wins HHH's world title. Bischoff goes on to tell Batista how proud he would be if Batista was his world champion. Batista asks if he means that. Bischoff says he does. Batista says Eric would make a good politician and should run for office. Bischoff says there is a mayor vote coming up soon in his hometown. Bischoff ponders the idea and likes it. Batista turns back around and says "better, yet.. used car salesmen!"
Orton is shown with Stacy, he says he has a surprise for the Taker and it is inside a box he has… he asks Stacy to come to the ring with him and she hesitates, but agrees.
Orton heads to the ring and gets on the mic and says he only slapped Taker in the face because he had to, not out of disrespect. He says his confidence is at an all time high. He shows a new shirt of the Legend Killer Tour. It has a long list of names on the back with check marks on the back and the Undertaker's name is checked off! He says he will NOT fall another victim to the Undertaker! A video package is shown of Randy Orton and all the legends he has taken down. After the package is shown he says in two weeks, his streak as a legend will be just like him… DEAD. The crowd boos. Randy Orton says that stacy is here now, there is something he has been wanting to do for a very long time… he grabs her hand and french kisses her on the lips (pics below), several times. He says he thrives on positive energy, and that is just why he will not listen to all the critics, he has a message for all the people that think the Undertaker is going to defeat him. The message is simply…. this…. Randy Orton then goes on to DROP STACY WITH THE RKO. Referees comes to the ring to help Stacy out as the CROWD BOOS heavily. J.R says that he would do this to his own girlfriend, God only knows what he will do to beat the Taker come WrestleMania 21. Orton walks off, he kind of looks guilty for what he just did.
Referee: Mike Chioda
The Match:
Tyson knocks Benoit down right away but Benoit starts to German suplex him within several seconds with multiple german suplexes. Benoit goes to the top rope and comes off with a flying headbutt. Benoit looks hurt as he makes the cover but Tomko kicks out at two. Tyson then gains control and unloads on Benoit with several right hands. Tyson perches in the corner and waits for Benoit to get up. Tyson goes for the big boot but Benoit ducks and slaps the crossface on Tomko! Tyson has no choice but to tap and Benoit gets to his feet and holds his head high taped ribs and all.
Winner: Chris Benoit
Shawn Michaels is shown in the back in a suit getting ready to leave the arena. Muhammed Hassan comes and talks to him saying he deserves to be at WrestleMania. He says they are a lot alike, both have faced diversity, but HBK knows nothing of what Hassan faces day in and day out. HBK says what he does not like is that Hassan claims he deserves everything, but he has earned nothing. Next week, in his home state, they will go one on one and face off, and he will show the world why they call him Mr. WrestleMania.
The lumberjacks head to the ring as HHH says that one of these guys could be the next member of Evolution…..
Lumberjack Match
Before the Match:
J.R informs HHH that he will be in a "face-off" next week in the ring against Batista. Whatever that means. HHH goes crazy over the idea and is pretty scared over it.
The Start:
The two men clash and go back and forth until Batista tosses Kane into the corner before giving him a powerslam. Hassan nails him from behind, Batista steps outside and clocks Daivari, Kane meets him out there and gains the upper hand. The Masterpiece tosses him back in the ring. Kane is in control as he drops an elbow across the throat of Batista. Batista fights back and he hits a reverse elbow in the corner but La Resistance grab his legs and try to bone him on the post but Batista kicks them off, but this allows Kane to hit a DDT.
Mid Match Notes:
Kane does not go for a cover as he punishes Batista from corner to corner. He splashes a clothesline on Batista in the corner before going for a pin and getting a two count. Batista fights back with shots to Batista's ribs, but Kane gives him an uppercut followed by a low dropkick sending Batista down hard. Kane works Batista over and he gives him a sidewalk slam. Kane goes to climb the top but he kicks Snitsky in the head. Batista tosses Kane off the top rope and he goes all for the gut in the corner with shoulder charges. Batista lifts Kane up and gives him a huge vertical suplex. Batista rams Kane down with a hard shoulder. Kane fights back and goes for a chokeslam but Batista evades it. Snitsky cheap shots Kane, who heads to the outside of the ring to beat on Snitsky! He follows up with a boot on Simon Dean. Viscera gets involved and Kane slams him off the ring most several times. On the other side of the ring, many men are beating on Batista, but as Kane rolls into the ring, Christian, Edge and Tomko beat on him! Outside the ring Batista goes buck wild and kills all the lumberjacks. He kills Chris Masters, tosses Maven into the steps, clotheslines one La Resiatance member into a flip and tosses the other down the ramp. He then heads into the ring where he proceeds to give Edge and Christian huge spinebusters.
The Finish:
Batista stares down HHH after cleaning out all of the lumberjacks. This allows Kane no nail Batista with the chokeslam! Kane makes the cover but Batista kicks out! Kane goes for the tombstone but Batista steps out and gives Kane a sick spinebuster. Batista then kicks Kane in the gut and he looks at HHH as he sticks Kane between his legs. He gives Kane the sitdown powerbomb and he makes the pin!
Winner: Batista
HHH stands up on the announce table and he stares into the eyes of Batista who looks at him back as Raw goes off the air.

FAT PUMP – A view inside the RINC fat pump reveals THREE HORIZONTAL AUGERS.
These augers will take FULL BLOCKS OF FAT and feed them consistently into the Mono pump which in turn provides the sheet of dough with a perfect layer of fat.
DOUGH QUALITY - The large MULTI ROLLER is specifically designed by RINC to assist in producing the best possible dough product. The use of TEFLON COATED LARGE MULTI-ROLLERS guarantees the ultimate end result. It has a reduction capability of 10:1. The 12 top rollers have a total diameter of 400mm.
LAMINATING – The compact laminator is UNIQUE in the world of laminators. In just a FRACTION OF FLOOR SPACE normally required by a laminator it provides the same capabilities as a "full size" laminator without compromising the quality of the final product. The dough is supported by the servo-driven laminating rollers to ensure that the fat layer remains intact inside the dough.The Laminating system can very easily be changed to a CUT & STACK SYSTEM by adding a guillotine and retracting system
EASY OPERATION- The Compact Laminator comes standard with a TOUCH SCREEN CONTROL PANEL. This allows the operator to visualise the line whilst changing settings. The PLC behind the panel stores up to 99 different programs as well as all the required settings t make this machine user friendly.
MULTI CROSS ROLLER - A look inside the MULTI-CROSS ROLLER allows you to see the 2 sets of rollers gently pressing the dough outwards to the edge of the conveyor. The use of multiple rollers greatly reduces the tension which would be placed on the dough by a standard cross pinner. There are NO CHAINS OR BEARINGS running above the dough sheet therefore eliminating the risk of metal and lubricant contamination and making the unit practically maintenance free.
DIRECT DRIVE – RINC'S direct drive sheeting heads eliminate the need for chains and sprockets. Conveniently accessed through a hinged interlocked door, the drives are no longer "underneath" the machine. A central greasing system makes maintenance easy and the bolt on standard bearings ensures a quick and easy replacement
WASH DOWN - The complete system is manufactured specifically for wash down with quick release belts making the procedure quick and simple.
PRODUCT QUALITY- RINC uses only 12 roller multi-rollers and NO swing arm laminating

It's been one week since I switched to a sit/stand desk setup. It's time to report back.
Here are some of the points to note if you switch to a similar setup.
Comfortable shoes are a must!
If you can splurge a bit, you can get one of those fancy standing mats. I've tried standing barefoot, with thin socks, with thick socks, and in peshawari chappals. All of them gave me foot pain. I switched to running shoes and all was good.
Alternate between sitting and standing!
Standing too long leads to fatigue (just like sitting too long leads to fat-igue). "Too long" may mean anywhere between 1-3 hours. I've found switching after 1-1.5 hours works for me. Today, I was zoned-in and realised after two hours that I was working while standing. Luckily, my desk has buttons to adjust its height so switching doesn't take long.
Rest your feet!
Standing too long on both legs, one leg, or heels leads to leg pain. From what I've read, foot stools help — I just use my chair or a foot rest (that you can see in the picture above).
Don't forget you are on a sit/stand setup!
Last Monday morning, my desk was down and over the weekend, I had forgotten that I had to switch to standing mode. I noticed it after lunch and by that time, half of the day had already passed. The trick I try to use now is to leave the desk up when leaving for home. It also helps me the next day when I can start my day right away, standing, after my 25-30 mins of commute.
I've noticed that my sluggishness level has lowered a bit during the last week, specially post lunch. Any effects on weight will be noticed later (and will not be reported). Having said that, one week may not be long enough to notice anything so the experiment continues!

... a brief history
The Sherman House was built in 1904 as a summer residence for James Sherman, a grain merchant and attorney from Chicago.
It was designed by Robert Classen S pencer, Jr. an architect who shared an office with Frank Lloyd Wright in the Steinway Hall building in Chicago. He was one of "The Eighteen" architects, including, Frank Lloyd Wright, who had a Vision of a new architectural style that featured simplicity & smooth horizontal lines. It was first referred to as the Chicago School & later as Prairie Style & today Frank Lloyd Wright style because of Wright's long & prolific career throughout the Midwest.
The new architectural style blended with nature and did not intrude upon it. Significant to this new design was their large porches, many sunny windows and smooth horizontal lines. They used the natural wood in the area, oak and hard pine, and, in addition, natural cut sandstone. All these features gave a greater sense of restfulness, relaxation & repose which is exemplified in the Sherman House, with its spectacular view down the Wisconsin River.
As you are looking out of the Sherman House's long porch facing the river, you will notice a sign designating a small strip of the lawn as a park area. Three and a half acres of the Sherman House's land was donated to the City of Wisconsin Dells so that the public might always have access to the spectacular view of the Wisconsin River. The park behind the Sherman House was dedicated to allow the peacefulness of nature to be available to all. It was named Jenkin's Park after the beloved local doctor who rode on horseback to make his house calls.
The house has had only 6 owners in its 100+ years. One owner was the prominent Crandall & Musson family who, as early conservationists, shared a vision of protecting the river's edges from over development. It was during their ownership that the three acres of land mentioned above were given to the city.
The house was purchased by the Marz family. Laura Marz, after the death of her husband, began operating the Sherman House as a bed & breakfast inn in 1987.
We invite you to relax, forget all about time and enter into a new moment, reminiscent of a quieter time, and it is there in your mind to find and enjoy. Then, let this present still moment extend into a timeless now, as if you are on an endless vacation.

Britsh Jewish Literature Essay Research Paper When
Britsh Jewish Literature Essay, Research Paper
When looking back on a significant event in history, or even just one s life, there are usually two perspectives. First of all, the event can be something that has been accepted. One does not necessarily have to take pride in it, but they will not ignore the fact that it happened, it s a part of life. In this case, the event is not brought up on a day to day basis, but when it is, the person who lived through it can deal with it and does not become disturbed. The second outlook is that one would want to forget it ever happened at all. In this case the person tries to put it behind them, and in doing so, it really disturbs them. When the event is brought up, it hurts, and it could even in some instances hurt the person on a day to day basis. It may not be a conscious thing, but it could be at times. When we look at British-Jewish literature, we can see the Holocaust as this significant event in history. This literature is definitely post-Holocaust literature in that these two perspectives are taken on in many works. While assessing a couple of books, we will run into people who try to act as if the Holocaust never affected them, while it has, as well as ones who accept that the Holocaust happened, and it was a rather large part of their life.
The first work that will be looked at is Kindertransport, by Diane Samuels. In this piece, we immediately learn about Eva, Evelyn s younger self. She is a child who is sent to England by her mother in order to avoid any harm during the years of the Holocaust. In England, Eva s name is changed to Evelyn because she wants an English name in order to feel as though she is one of the English. This is symbolic of her new beginning, although she does not see it at the time. Eva believes her parents will come to get her as they always said they would, but Evelyn realizes this is not the case in as time goes on. As Evelyn grows up, she becomes close to Lil, her English mother, and although she always has the hope of finding her real parents, as time passes, Lil does become her real parent. This can be seen in Evelyn s developing trust in Lil. The incident that most clearly shows this developing trust is when Lil does not force Evelyn to get on the train to go to school. Evelyn is affected by this because her real mother forced her to get on the train to go to England even though she was opposed to it.
As we look at Evelyn in the present, we see a very strong woman who has chosen to forget her past and the things that happened to her. She has many memories packed away in a box, but she chooses to leave them this way. Evelyn lives her life as though she has always been English, and lets nobody in to see her past. Although it is not seen directly through Evelyn until pressed by her daughter, she shows signs of her past affecting her. As Evelyn s daughter Faith once said, You can t go on a train without hyper-ventilating. You cross the road if you see a policeman or traffic warden. This is completely related to her past although it is not noticed as that by most of her family and friends. Every time Eva was put on a train, it was to be sent away from the ones she loved, and every time she saw men in uniform, it was always German police, who were not seen as good people in a Jewish persons eyes.
Once Evelyn s daughter Faith learns a little bit about her mother, she is intrigued about her past but Evelyn is not willing to let her in. Lil does supply Faith with a bit of information, and once Faith uses this information to confront her mother, Evelyn closes up. At first she refuses to say a thing about her past to her daughter. She believes that it is only her business since it is her past, and hers only. Once Evelyn does decide to tell her daughter about her past, she makes it very clear that it has been forgotten. Evelyn begins by saying, Let me tell you what little remains in my brain. Once Evelyn does not talk about her past, she emphasizes the negativity the most. When Faith decides she wants to meet her relatives, all Evelyn can tell her is that she will not like them because they are very different from themselves.
The Latecomers, by Anita Brookner, is another good example of post-Holocaust literature. In this work we are exposed to two very different people who deal with their past in two very different ways. Although these two characters, Thomas Hartmann and Thomas Fibich, are opposites of each other, they are the closest that friends can be throughout their lifetime. They met when sent to London as refugees during the Second World War. They lived in the same apartment building, and they complemented each other so well that they became business partners. Their differences included their personalities and their outlook on life as well as their thoughts of the past.
Hartmann lives a life of pleasure, rarely disturbed by his difficult past. He basically lives for today and the future. When asked what his secret to being happy is, he replies, The present is my secret. Living in the present. His past is behind him and he would rather leave it that way. As stated on page 6, There were in fact certain memories that Hartmann had consigned to the dust, or to that repository that can only be approved in dreams. For this reason Hartmann took a sedative every night and ensured untroubled sleep. He defended this practice, as he defended all his habits, as sensible: his own glossy head was his best justification. I eat well. I sleep well, he was in the habit of saying, when asked how he did. What else is there? He knew there was more, but thought that wisdom consisted in reducing the purchase of such nebulous matters or indeed of any imponderables that might darken his own impeccable consciousness.
Fibich, on the other hand, is not an extremely happy person. He always has the mental image of the last sight of his mother, fainting on a railway platform, in the back of his head. He lives his life with that constantly lingering over his head, which makes him rather miserable. The past was too strong for Fibich to forget. He remembered blundering through his life, never knowing or indeed discovering whether his actions were acceptable or whether they were as futile as he believed them to be. The years before his arrival were lost, and it was their loss that had sent him to the analyst. And no momentous retrieval had taken place, nothing that he thought might at last supply him with an identity. (Page 27) Fibich eventually comes to term with his past. He returns to Berlin to see what he can do and it does change him. Although not a significant amount, it can be seen in his letter to his son. He lets his son, Toto, in on the history of their family. Although he does not remember everything, he does his best to tell everything he knows.
As we look at these two works of literature, it is clearly evident that they can be defined as post-Holocaust literature. The three main characters spoken about, Evelyn, Thomas Hartmann and Thomas Fibich all have their own ways of dealing with their past. It is known in both works that the Holocaust is the past from the beginning of each novel. If it is not directly stated, it is implied. Thomas Hartmann is the one character in this grouping who is able to accept his past. He doesn t make it a point to completely forget it, yet he doesn t make it a huge part of life. The Holocaust was just an event of his childhood and as he gets older he wants to understand the ghosts of his past. Thomas Fibich, on the other hand, is extremely troubled by his past. He wants to forget it, but he just can t seem to get certain memories out of his head. Fibich eventually comes to terms with his past, but after a very troublesome life. Looking at Kindertransport again, Evelyn sees the past in a similar way to Fibich. She wants to forget it ever happened. In contrast to Fibich, it isn t constantly in the back of her head until her daughter discovers the truth. Evelyn is extremely reluctant to talk about anything to do with her family and her life in Germany as a child. It even seems as though she wants to deny it ever happened, but she knew her daughter had found out the truth.
After assessing these two novels, we see that they are indeed post-Holocaust works. Whether applying the two main character outlooks as I stated above, or just by reading the book itself, it is rather evident. Anita Brookner, though a resident of England her whole life, lived through the Holocaust period. Although she did not experience it firs hand, she was able to see the damage it did. Diane Samuels was not even alive during the second World War, but based her play on personal accounts of people who lived through this tragic event.

Whew! The holidays are a busy time, aren't they? Between Christmas and family obligations, and now the upcoming New Year's Day, it's been quite a whirlwind around here at LCSB. However, fortunately Joy and I have been able to find time after the hustle and bustle of the daylight hours to spend some "quality time" together in the playroom. And that has allowed us to experiment with some of the holiday purchases we made this year!
Because of this, expect a flurry of product reviews over the next couple weeks. As usual, each will include a picture, a brief vignette to illustrate potential uses of the product, a summary of our experiences when Joy and I have put the product into use, and an overall rating. If we judge a product ranks higher than any others of the same type that we've reviewed, I'll elevate it to the "best" ranking and drop the former best product into the other options list.
First out of the gate is the Viper's Tongue leather slapper, a wicked-looking little item I've been eyeing for over a year. You should read the full review for details, but I'll share that after having finally purchased it, we have found that it definitely lives up to it's evil appearance. Just like it's namesake, it has quite a sting. Joy's bottom has now been bitten by this slapper on three different occasions, and it has become one of those items that holds both cold fear and strange fascination for her. Rather severe, but recommended!
Hope every one else is having as much fun with their naughty gifts as we are! Take care, all, and…
…enjoy yourself!

District Energy
District energy is a term referring to systems that produce steam, hot water or chilled water with a central plant and piping system that deliver heating and cooling services to area buildings. The steam or water is piped underground to individual buildings for space heating, domestic hot water heating and air conditioning. As a result, individual buildings served by a district energy system don't need their own boilers or chillers. The benefits of district energy systems include:
- Lower cost method to heat and cool a building
- Ease of operation and maintenance
- Greater reliability
- Decreased life-cycle costs
- Decreased first cost of building capital costs and eliminate need to periodically replace boilers and chillers.
- Improved architectural design flexibility

text: Hi! I'm trying to run python from within Emacs. This is in my .emacs file : (setq auto-mode-alist ; trigger python mode automatically (cons '("\\.py$" . python-mode) auto-mode-alist)) (setq interpreter-mode-alist (cons '("python" . python-mode) interpreter-mode-alist)) (autoload 'python-mode "python-mode" "Python editing mode." t) , but I got this message : "Searching for program: no such file or directory, python" So I've added the following line : (setq py-python-command '("C:/Program Files/Python")) This is the path where my 'python.exe' is located. But then this message occurs: Using the CPython shell let: Wrong type argument: integerp, "C:/Program Files/Python" Could anyone tell me how to solve this? Thanks a lot in advance!
