According to a report that aired on Mobile, AL FOX affiliate WALA on Wednesday, Korean War veteran Roy M. Johnsen was reunited with a part of his past after a happenstance purchase .
Chip Herrington of Mobile, bought an old Naval officer's sword at a pawn shop in Ocean Springs, MS for $40.
"Once I got it home, I noticed the name, 'ROY M. JOHNSEN,' engraved on the blade," Herrington wrote on his Facebook page. "After a little internet research, I learned that 'Roy Johnsen' was a decorated Navy Pilot during the Korean War. After a little more research, I actually found him. He's 85 years old and living in Pennsylvania."
According to WALA, after Herrington inquired, he reunited Johnsen with the personal artifact.
"I said I've got what may seem like a strange question for you, but are you missing a sword? And he didn't say anything for a long time," Herrington said.
"My first reaction was, well what kind of a scam is this? Let's listen to it. And the further we went, the more convinced I was it was a legit call," Johnsen said.

When I was growing up, hummus was considered a "hippie" food that only health-food-store zealots would consider eating. You know, those same kooks who did yoga and burned candles! It was "way out" of the spectrum of normalcy, and definitely not to be found in the aisles of any major supermarket. It was the only thing that the Manson Family and Richard Simmons likely had in common.
No more! For better or for worse, we are now innundated with mass-market hummus brands; it is a ubiqutious staple in most every grocer's refrigerated aisle. Some brands are better than others; but more often than not they are runny, bland, or oversalted.
Other "flavored" hummus is packaged with a big dollop of roasted-red-pepperlike goo at the top, or some soggy pine nuts. Yuck.
To ensure you don't get stuck with a bum container of hummus, take matters into your own hands and make your own! The earthy, nutty flavor of the tahini shines through, and you can process it to be as smooth or as chunky as you like. Plus, it can be made in a few minutes. Trust me: you will never go back to the grocery store goo!
REAL Hummus
4 garlic cloves
2 cups canned chickpeas, drained, liquid reserved
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/3 cup tahini (sesame paste)
6 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (2 lemons)
2 tablespoons water or liquid from the chickpeas
8 dashes hot sauce
salt and pepper to taste
Turn on the food processor fitted with the steel blade and drop the garlic down the feed tube; process until it's minced. Add the rest of the ingredients to the food processor and process until the hummus is coarsely pureed. Salt and pepper to taste, and serve chilled or at room temperature.

Renin provided the barn door and hardware featured in this post. All opinions are as always our own. See our full disclosure policy here.
You may remember that at our last house we had a couple of different barn doors – the dark wood barn door we built and the two white ones that we installed less than a year before we moved.
Because I love the look and function of barn doors so much, I've been trying and trying to figure out where to put a barn door in this house for the last year. The main floor is almost all open concept and anywhere it's not, doesn't suit a sliding door (i.e. there's a wall in the way). The basement has several bulkheads which make the doorways smaller than average, and therefore unsuitable for a barn door too.
Which left us with the upstairs and our master bedroom to be specific.
A Barn Door on Our Master Bedroom/Ensuite Doorway
We are thankful to have a master ensuite at this house. It's not huge, and it's still looks like it belongs in 1999. But it's private, it has a soaker tub and it's just ours. No kids allowed. The biggest non-cosmetic problem was that the small door swung INTO the bathroom, effectively reducing the usable space quite a bit. It was the perfect spot for a barn door!
(Please ignore the hideous bathroom – it's on the list!)
The door is the Renin unfinished pine Salinas with Easy Glide Soft Close ('cause you know, middle of the night bathroom trips and a loud door are no good!).
We also added the Barn Door Privacy Latch too, of course. Technically I think it's supposed to go on the other side of the door jamb, but the doorway is super narrow and Dean and I didn't want to catch ourselves on it when we walked through. So we improvised.
We may or may not add a finish to the door at some point down the road. But for now I'm loving the raw wood detail.
Now I REALLY can't wait to update the rest of our master bedroom in the New Year!
Do you have any barn doors at your house? Or maybe somewhere you COULD put one?

What does it mean to be an independent Team Beachbody Coach?
For me, being an independent Beachbody coach means loving what I do and having the ability to help people no matter where they live. I can help you from my home to yours, and that's the most rewarding thing about it.
Becoming a Beachbody Coach was a decision I made after the amazing success I'd had with Beachbody's programs and the amazing relationships I'd made through their community. It just seemed like the logical next step for me to take. I'd never been involved with any sort of marketing before, but I knew I wanted to do this because of what Beachbody has meant to me in my life. It has ended up being one of the best decisions I have ever made.
With Beachbody coaching I was able to kiss my full-time office job goodbye in 2009, get certified as a fitness professional, pay off my car, and buy a house. I was able to do all of this by doing something that I love for a living… helping people. I am now ranked as a Team Beachbody coach leader (8-Star Diamond coach, and 2-star Diamond in my second business center) within the company. I'm also a Success Club All Star, member of the Millionaire Club, and recipient of the Financial Freedom Award. I created the team All Star Coaches, and provide one-on-one help and training to new coaches in the business. Our team has developed many leaders in the star-diamond ranks, as well as Elite 10 coaches!
As a coach I've also coached many success stories with the programs. A few of those I've coached have gone on to win in the Beachbody Challenge… one of whom won $50,000 for his transformation! How would it feel if YOU helped someone change their health and fitness and win money for it?
If you want to be on a winning team who will be there to help you succeed, I encourage you to join myself and the All Star Coaches. We will provide you with the training needed to be a successful business person. Of course, you can also sign up simply for the reason of getting 25% off of Team Beachbody products! That's a pretty good reason all in itself.
If you have any questions about coaching, please use the CONTACT page to get in touch with me. If you are ready to join today as part of my team, click here ! I will get you started right and we'll work together towards your goals in helping people all while helping yourself, too!

17 things to do in Noosa with kids
Got kids. Will travel. Now what?
Well if you're headed to Noosa you're in luck because this place is just bursting at the seams with kid-friendly activities that are worthy of memories to last a lifetime.
Noosa is famous for its waterways and that adds up to scenic, easy bike paths for all ages. For one of the best rides, follow the river from Noosa Heads along Gympie Terrace to Noosaville and Tewantin. There's also a kid-size dirt bike track at Cooroy's Apex Park, off Maple Street.
For bike hire, try Bike On. Or take Ecotek's electric bikes for a spin with littlies' bike trailer or baby buggy seat available as add-ons.
Boreen Point is a secret only a local would know. Situated on the banks of Lake Cootharaba, it's a family-friendly paradise including fishing, sailing, kayak, SUP, bike riding and playground.
Want to stay the night? Habitat Noosa is one of the best kid-friendly campgrounds on the coast with glamping tents for those who don't want to pitch their own.
Put the historic, country-style Apollonian Hotel on your lunch radar with grassy grounds for run-arounds.
Where are the locals at? They're at the best kid's park this side of the Caribbean – Noosa's Pirate Park. Afterwards, stroll the river path to the iconic Noosa Boathouse restaurant where you can grab casual fish and chips from the unique eatery floating on the river. The kids will love the resident pelicans!
Strike boredom off your list. If you've got young ones to entertain, then Noosa Tenpin and Laser Tag is right up your bowling alley. Open every day except Christmas.
Noosa River has both SUP and kayak hire and a sheltered waterway that's hard to beat for young ones. Noosa Stand Up Paddle has hourly or daily hire from $20/hour and Kayak Noosa can get you sorted with equipment hire, a morning eco-tour or sunset session, with children able to join in from 12 years upwards.
Fix the "I'm hungry" cries with a visit to Noosa's Farmers Markets each Sunday until noon. This is one of the region's best markets, featuring local, seasonal produce and handmade products.
Little ones will love the plant stall where they can pot their own herbs, while you grab yourself a well-deserved coffee. Situated in the AFL grounds at 155 Weyba Rd, Noosa.
For something completely different, Equathon offers horseback rides on Noosa's unending North Shore Beach. They welcome children from 10 years and over (unless they're already an old hand), or seven years old for private beach rides.
Noosa Main Beach is as family friendly as you'll find anywhere in the world, and is also patrolled all year round. Once you've taken your sandcastle building skills next level, explore the National Park via Park Road's brand-new widened boardwalk, recently upgraded to include viewing platforms over Laguna Bay, resting stops for little legs and additional access points to the beach.
For your how-to guide to the Noosa National Park head here.
One of the best ways to appreciate the area is via a cruise along the Noosa River, and it doesn't have to break the holiday budget! Noosa Ferry Cruise Company runs from Tewantin to Noosa Sound with seven different stop-off points and family passes starting at $15.
If there's more in the budget, enjoy their new eco-cruise on Tuesdays and Thursdays – a family pass is $135.
Take your little history buffs for a walk back in time through the local museums. Noosa Museum includes a display of old toys, a telephone switchboard and an early schoolroom. They won't believe their eyes! A: 29 Factory St, Pomona.
Put aside a few hours for Noosa Aquatic Centre with 25 and 50m pools, a toddler pool, heated bubble pool, crèche and café on site.
The giant inflatables come out in school holidays, but if that's too "uncool, mum", there's a skate park right next door. Find it at 6 Girraween Court, Sunshine Beach.
Hastings Street might mean high-end shopping, hip restaurants and stylish resorts to anyone else, but to kids, it means only one thing… ice-cream.
Take your pick from these six or take them all on: Nitrogenie, Happy Pops, Gelatissimo, Ben & Jerry's, Massimo's Gelateria or Royal Copenhagen. You can ever treat yourself to one if you like!
Noosa's got its very own magic mirror, and its deep inside the river of mirrors, the Everglades. It's one of only two everglade systems in the world.
Explore via guided or self-guided kayak: Kanu Kapers at Boreen Point (20km from Tewantin) are your super helpful go-tos and children of all ages are welcome.
Pack a picnic; the family will be gone all day on this 4WD beach escape! Take the car ferry from Tewantin and then onto Noosa North Shore, then drive along Teewah Beach all the way to Double Island Point, about 45km.
This is real, unplugged family time where you can make your own adventure: from swimming to fishing, to exploring the Cooloola Recreation Area. Psst: permits are required for vehicle access and camping.
Kids love a BBQ as much as anyone, but they'll love it even more pontoon style! Pontoons are self-drive BBQ boats, including shady overhead canopy and comfy lounge seating all around. No boat licence required!
Check out O Boat Hire who can also assist with fishing gear and eskies.
If you're visiting between August and November, treat the kids to some whale watching. A tour such as Noosa Bluewater Charters will get you close to all the action. If only they could take one home as a pet!
If you're going to learn to surf, it may as well be from a pro, right? Managed by a two-time Australian and World Pro-Am Champion, Merrick Davis's Noosa Learn to Surf will teach you the surfing ropes plus offers school holiday programs for children seven years and up.
Look for the red tent at Noosa Main Beach (beach access 14). Who's got school bragging rights now?
For a list of other surf schools on the Sunshine Coast head here. And if you're looking for more things to do on the Sunshine Coast with kids, here's 22 ideas.

Read these recommendations for 5′ nuclease assay design and experimental setup that will help you obtain accurate and consistent results. Included are tips for primer and probe parameters and use of controls.
Quantitative PCR (qPCR) is the method of choice for precise quantification of gene expression. qPCR can utilize a variety of probe-based methods such as 5′ nuclease dual-labeled probes, molecular beacons, FRET probes, and Scorpions™ Probes, or use intercalating fluorescent dyes such as SYBR. 5′ nuclease assays have the advantage of the specificity that comes with using a sequence-specific, dual-labeled probe, and is the preferred technique for gene expression analysis. This article will focus on 5′ nuclease assay design and experimental setup considerations that will assist in obtaining accurate and consistent results.
A well-designed assay begins with an understanding of the gene of interest, including knowledge of the transcript variants and their exon organization. Following are recommendations for obtaining the optimum assay designs for qPCR gene expression analysis.
Use NCBI databases such as GenBank, Gene, and dbSNP to identify exon junctions, splice variants, and SNP locations.
Once the target exons have been identified for design, use the following criteria to select primers and probe.
Figure 1. Primer design to limit genomic DNA amplification.
Length: For typical cycling conditions, ideal amplicon size is between 70 and 200 bp. Longer amplicons can be designed, but cycling conditions should be adjusted to include longer extension times. Generally, slightly longer amplicons are used for SYBR-based assays than for probe-based assays to enable differentiation from primer dimers on a melt curve.
For accurate analysis of qPCR results, each experiment needs to be set up with multiple replicates and controls (Figure 2).
Replicates: For each experimental and control sample to be compared, at least three technical replicates are necessary to minimize errors in measured gene expression due to pipetting.
Figure 2. qPCR assay setup. Outline of the test and controls needed for an experiment with two different samples examined at several time points post treatment. Include 3–5 biological replicates for each time point studied. For each biological replicate studied, perform 2 reverse transcription reactions (+RT) and 1 with no RT (–RT control). For each cDNA sample generated, set up 3 technical replicates for qPCR analysis. Include a No Template Control for each gene analyzed to identify any signal due to contamination.

-one who is fiercely brave,
-tyrannical leader, &
-greedy devourer.
The idiom the lion's share entered English in 1701. The word lionize initially meant person of note who is much sought after, a macabre reference to the lions kept in the Tower of London, though over a dozen decades it came to mean to treat someone as a celebrity. It takes little to imagine that what with paparazzi and all, our modern celebrities may feel the teeth of the earlier meaning.

Advantages of Janitorial Cleaning Services
Being a manager is a great task especially because you have to bear in mind that the working environment should be always clean. There are many reasons you should ensure that the working environment is clean, one being that your employees will be happy and very productive because they will be present in many of the working days because clean environment fosters healthy living. Also, it is possible to place the investors if the business premises, are clean because it gives your business a professional appearance. Therefore, when it comes to cleaning, you have to make sure that you invest either by outsourcing the commercial cleaning companies or doing it yourself. Discussed in this article are some of the advantages of hiring janitorial cleaning companies.
It is very expensive to choose to do the cleanings all by yourself especially because you have to hire permanent employees. When it comes to permanent employees, there are employment rules you have to a dealer to such as offering them benefits in addition to the recruiting, retaining and training costs and therefore continue business a lot. On the other hand, outsourcing the janitorial cleaning services is inexpensive because you require the services occasionally. This will lift the burden off your shoulders because the cleaning team will not be on your payroll which is inexpensive in the long run.
On the other hand, will be working with a team of professionals who are also experienced in cleaning commercial properties. It will save you a substantial amount of money to engage a team of professionals who are also experienced because they will offer you quality cleaning services meaning that you don't have to engage them daily to be cleaning the commercial properties.
Also, working with the janitorial cleaning companies is also advantages considering the fact that they are insured. The insurance cover is very necessary when it comes to commercial properties because sometimes even when the professionals who are also experienced are cleaning the services, damages, and injuries can take place, but if there is the insurance cover, the insurance company will be liable for such finances. Apart from the insurance cover, they janitorial cleaning companies are also permitted and in case they deny the responsibility, you sue them legally in the court of law.
The other advantage of working with the janitorial cleaning companies, is that they have the appropriate cleaning equipment. What this means is that you don't have to spend any amount of money in purchasing the janitorial cleaning equipment which is necessary for quality cleaning as you look for means of avoiding any unnecessary cost is a business. There are many janitorial cleaning companies in the market today that you can hire for your needs and requires you to research a lot.

text: Lahore, Mar.6 (ANI): The next few days would test the Pakistan Cricket Board chairman Ijaz Butt's tactfulness and skills regarding handling issues in the board, as he has to make veral important decisions in days to come. He is also likely to face action for some of his recent 'unilateral' decisions. Butt has to appoint a captain or captains for the Pakistan Test, ODI and Twenty20 teams for forthcoming assignments besides implementing recommendations of the inquiry committee, which was set up to probe Pakistan's humiliating tour Down Under. The committee had recommended hefty penalty for all-rounder Shahid Afridi and wicket keeper Kamran Akmal for violating the players' code of conduct during the series. Moreover, Butt's thorny relations with the Sports Ministry and the National Assembly's (NA) Standing Committee on Sports is likely to enhance his troubles in coming days. Insiders said that Butt's contradictory statements regarding some of the players being involved in match-fixing at a press conference recently would only add to his problems when he appears before the NA committee on Saturday (today) to explain his remarks against captain Mohammed Yousuf and Shoaib Malik. Butt had first said that two players were under investigation for match-fixing and then retracted, saying he was speaking about old cases and none of the current players in the Pakistani team are suspects in fixing matches. His recent decisions of using his discriminatory powers to appoint Waqar Younis and Ijaz Ahmed as coach and assistant coach respectively, and Mohsin Khan as the new chief selector have also not gone down well with the government, The Nation reports. "The PCB chairman should have consulted the governing council members specially the new ones inducted into the council while taking such key decisions. He has again shown a tendency to take unilateral decisions, which affect Pakistan cricket directly," Sports Minister Ijaz Jakhrani had said earlier.

When Stephen King published Doctor Sleep in 2013, it felt inevitable that the book, a sequel to his beloved 1977 horror novel The Shining, would get a movie adaptation one day. After all, director Stanley Kubrick's big-screen version of the original, starring Jack Nicholson as alcoholic writer Jack Torrance, is widely considered one of the most terrifying movies ever made -- even though King himself has long taken issue with the changes Kubrick made to his story. An adaptation of Doctor Sleep, which follows a grown-up Danny Torrance, was a no-brainer. But who would want the tricky, intimidating task of walking in Kubrick's shoes?
Enter Mike Flanagan, the director behind Netflix's King adaptation Gerald's Game and last year's unnerving miniseries The Haunting of Hill House. After the box office success of It, which was also produced by Warner Brothers, Flanagan jumped aboard in early 2018 and Ewan McGregor was quickly cast as Danny. Now we've got our first glimpse at the movie, which also features Rebecca Ferguson, Bruce Greenwood, and Jacob Tremblay, and it looks pretty spooky.
The trailer opens with Danny staring at a friendly greeting on his wall, which eventually turns into that familiar "redrum" message. Though there's familiar imagery from Kubrick's original featured in here, including a chilling shot of young Danny on his bike in the hallways of the Overlook Hotel, the movie doesn't look like it's trying to imitate Kubrick's visual approach too much. Instead, it looks quite a bit like Hill House and Flanagan's other recent projects.
So, will the movie follow King's lead in ignoring specific plot points and changes from Kubrick's version of the story? In a recent interview, Flanagan answered the question by saying it was very complicated. "It is an adaptation of the novel Doctor Sleep, which is Stephen King's sequel to his novel, The Shining," he said. "But this also exists very much in the same cinematic universe that Kubrick established in his adaptation of The Shining."
We'll find out exactly what that means when the movie arrives in theaters on November 8. That's only a couple months after It: Chapter Two debuts in September, making this fall King season at your local movie theater.

FS#9621 - FAT read-ahead when filling buffer
Opened by Boris Gjenero (dreamlayers) - Wednesday, 10 December 2008, 01:36 GMT
I noticed that when filling the buffer my Video iPod (32MB RAM) does noticeable seeks at semi-regular intervals even if reading from a single non-fragmented file. It seems this is due to having to read the next FAT sector. In firmware/drivers/fat.c there is a FAT cache but no read-ahead of the FAT.
I created fat_preload( struct fat_file *file, long sectorcount ) in firmware/drivers/fat.c to preload the FAT cache. In firmware/common/file.c I created file_preloadfat(int fd, size_t count) because calling a fat_ function directly would be too much of a kludge. I use file_preloadfat in apps/buffering.c just before filling the buffer.
This got rid of that regular seeking and it seems to it can remove about two seconds from the time needed to fill the buffer when reading a single non-fragmented file. Currently the code is quite simple and unintelligent. Fragmentation or other activity can overwrite the pre-loaded FAT sectors in the cache, and in such cases the pre-load leads to needless extra reads. More work is probably needed before this can be included in Rockbox.
Currently this patch is for SW-codec only. I think file_preloadfat could be called from HW-codec buffering code also, though few seeks would be prevented with 2MB of RAM. This patch is also probably useless with flash storage.
I was thinking that I should probably do more to ensure that the FAT preloading actually helps,for example making sure I'm not overwriting already pre-loaded sectors. I was also thinking that another approach might be better, like each open file having a buffer with a list of extents ({ sector, length } pairs), and maybe only having a smaller FAT cache for writes. However, I don't have a fully formed idea on this, and right now I'm focused on figuring out how to do ATA DMA on the PP5020.
The error messages are:
LD lua.rock
/home/asettico-9.04/Sviluppo/rockbox/rockbox/build_sim/apps/buffering.o: In function `buffer_handle':

International Invitation Orders
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding
and thank you for considering us for your invitations!
Please find here helpful information for placing your invitation order online.
- PLEASE ignore the shipping fees quoted online when placing your invitation order.
We will email you shipping quotes for USPS 5-10 business day services that are much less expensive than UPS services.
Typically, quotes range from $70-120 for USPS services and $150-250 for UPS services.
- Please understand that your country may charge you customs fees or duties
once the invitation order arrives in your country.
These are country specific and your responsibility.
Some brides decide to have the package delivered to their work address
instead of their residence which seems to help avoid these fees.
- We find that our international brides prefer the card stock (paper thickness/quality) of flat, standard invitations.
Folding invitations (bi-folds, tri-folds, etc.) are thinner to accomodate for the layers that need to fit inside the envelope.
Traditionally and with the majority of invitation sets, all accessory pieces (reception cards, response cards, informal notes, thank you notes, etc.) do fold with the printing on the front of the card.
Card Stock Color
- "Bright White" is True White, "Soft White" is Light Ivory, and "Ecru" is Dark Ivory. The card stock color cannot be change for the invitation design because the design is pre-printed on the card stock and only the text is printed once you place an order.
- Orders may be placed in quantities of 25 only; 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200, etc.
- Traditionally in the U.S., invitations are sent in both an inner and an outer envelope, so both are automatically included in your order for no additional charge. The inner envelope can be lined with a color of your choice
(at an additional charge), however, it is not gummed and cannot have a printed return address.
The outer envelope, vice versa, is gummed and can have a printed return address (at an additional charge) but no color lining.
With all orders, you will automatically receive blank inner and outer envelopes for the invitations at no charge,
along with blank envelopes for the thank you notes and response cards (if these pieces have been ordered).
Evening Invitations
- It is not traditional in the U.S. to send evening invitations, however,
we can still print evening invitations for you. You may either use the reception card with the evening invitation wording
or place a second order with the same invitation you used for the day invitation and use the evening invitation wording.
If you place a second order, we will combine both orders and ship together.
If you use the reception card, please indicate in the customer notes that you require envelopes (as these do not come with envelopes since they are traditionally sent with the invitation
which will be manually added for $5.
Mass Booklets
- Sorry, we don't currently offer mass booklets.
- For Carlson Craft samples, please order these online.
Please click on "Click Here to View this Site Without Frames" as ordering samples will not work within frames.

please put in the customer notes that you require this and/or email us with the request
and we will manually add it to your order.

Netflix Rolls Its Own CDN
Netflix, which streams nearly 1 billion hours of video monthly over the Internet, is shifting to deliver data directly to broadband service providers via its own content delivery network at no cost to ISPs.
Today the company delivers most of its video through commercial CDN providers, including Level 3 Communications. Moving forward, Netflix will connect to Internet service providers through its own Open Connect CDN, which will provide streaming video at no cost at locations selected by ISPs or through common Internet peering exchanges, vice president of content delivery Ken Florance wrote in a blog post Monday.
Google's YouTube, the largest video service on the Internet, has long operated its own CDN, Florance noted. "Given our size and growth, it now makes economic sense for Netflix to have one as well," he said.

Most sold Kindle books for each year, since 2007
If you buy an item via this post, we may get a small affiliate fee. Details.
In a series of activities celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Kindle, Amazon has shared a list of 10 Kindle books that were most sold for each year since the launch of the first Kindle and the opening of Kindle Store.
The list was revealed in an article on This Week in Books, a weekly feature covering book news and opinions, which is now a part of Amazon website.
Every Kindle book on the list is No. 1 most sold title for each year between 2007 and 2017. So, until a more detailed ranking shows up, we are looking at the list of Kindle bestsellers of all time.
What was the first big Kindle bestseller? It's surely Ken Follett's novel The Pillars of the Earth, an opening story of the medieval saga from a Kingsbridge series.
An interesting thing is (and we discovered it when working on the timeline of the Kindle) that three days after the launch of the Kindle Store in 2007, Follett's novel was the most popular fiction book on the bestseller list – and it took "only" position No. 6. Higher places were occupied by… newspapers and magazines.
You will see on the list two books by Dan Brown, both starring Robert Langdon – The Lost Symbol and Inferno. The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins was the most sold Kindle book for two consecutive years: 2015 and 2016.
The biggest Kindle bestseller of 2017? No doubt, this is Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale.
Saying "Amazon reveals" would surely bring more traffic to this post, but the fact is these books are constantly available in the archive of Top 100 Kindle bestsellers – a good destination if you want to find out what are 99 other books for each year.
Which of these books have you read and when? Do you still own the Kindle you used to enjoy them?

Amazon Kindle bestsellers 2007-2017

A spellbinding epic tale of ambition, anarchy, and absolute power set against the sprawling medieval canvas of twelfth-century England, this is Ken Follett's historical masterpiece.

Langdon is instantly plunged into a clandestine world of Masonic secrets, hidden history, and never-before-seen locations – all of which seem to be dragging him toward a single, inconceivable truth.
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (Millennium Series Book 1)
Stieg Larsson
Murder mystery, family saga, love story, and financial intrigue combine into one satisfyingly complex and entertainingly atmospheric novel.
Harriet Vanger, a scion of one of Sweden's wealthiest families disappeared over forty years ago. All these years later, her aged uncle continues to seek the truth. He hires Mikael Blomkvist, a crusading journalist, to investigate. He is aided by the pierced and tattooed punk prodigy Lisbeth Salander.
Together they tap into a vein of unfathomable iniquity and astonishing corruption.
The Help
Kathryn Stockett
Aibileen is a black maid in 1962 Jackson, Mississippi. Her friend Minny has never held her tongue but now must somehow keep secrets about her employer that leave her speechless. White socialite Skeeter just graduated college.
She's full of ambition, but without a husband, she's considered a failure. Together, these seemingly different women join together to write a tell-all book about work as a black maid in the South, that could forever alter their destinies.
Fifty Shades of Grey
E L James
When literature student Anastasia Steele goes to interview young entrepreneur Christian Grey, she encounters a man who is beautiful, brilliant, and intimidating.
The unworldly, innocent Ana is startled to realize she wants this man and, despite his enigmatic reserve, finds she is desperate to get close to him.
Unable to resist Ana's quiet beauty, wit, and independent spirit, Grey admits he wants her, too—but on his own terms.
Dan Brown
In the heart of Italy, Harvard professor of symbology Robert Langdon is drawn into a harrowing world centered on one of the most enduring literary masterpieces, Dante's Inferno.
Against this backdrop, Langdon battles a chilling adversary and grapples with an ingenious riddle that pulls him into a landscape of classic art, secret passageways, and futuristic science. Drawing from Dante's dark epic poem, Langdon races to find answers and decide whom to trust.
The Fault in Our Stars
John Green

But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel's story is about to be completely rewritten.
Insightful, bold, irreverent, and raw, The Fault in Our Stars brilliantly explores the funny, thrilling, and tragic business of being alive and in love.
2015 and 2016
The Girl on the Train
Paula Hawkins
Rachel takes the same commuter train every morning. Every day she rattles down the track, flashes past a stretch of cozy suburban homes, and stops at the signal that allows her to daily watch the same couple breakfasting on their deck.
She's even started to feel like she knows them. "Jess and Jason," she calls them. Their life — as she sees it — is perfect. Not unlike the life she recently lost.
And then she sees something shocking. It's only a minute until the train moves on, but it's enough. Now everything's changed. Unable to keep it to herself, Rachel offers what she knows to the police, and becomes inextricably entwined in what happens next.
The Handmaid's Tale
Margaret Atwood
The Handmaid's Tale is a novel of such power that the reader will be unable to forget its images and its forecast.
Set in the near future, the novel describes life in what was once the United States and is now called the Republic of Gilead.
The story is told through the eyes of Offred, one of the unfortunate Handmaids under the new social order. In condensed but eloquent prose, by turns cool-eyed, tender, despairing, passionate, and wry, she reveals to us the dark corners behind the establishment's calm facade, as certain tendencies now in existence are carried to their logical conclusions.

Wild fires are consuming the northwest. Hurricane Florence is plowing into the Carolinas. Typhoon Mangkhut is pummeling the Philippines. And Minnesota is dry, warm and breezy.
It would be easy to think all is well, projecting the peace and beauty around me onto others. But we know that isn't the case.
Bigger than all these natural disasters is the number of people uprooted by human causes – war, violations of human rights, failed states and persecution.
68.5 Million people were forcibly displaced at the beginning of the year. Another 44,400 people have been forced to flee their homes every day since then. It is an unspeakable tragedy and a rampant evil in the world.
It's easy to look out my window and think all is well. It is not.

The Haunting of Hill House
Netflix Original
Very loosely based on the novel by Shirley Jackson of the same name The Haunting of Hill House is at its heart a family drama disguised as a ghost story.
This shouldn't be a spoiler, but Hill House is haunted. It is very very haunted. Yet, this is a different story than the one you may be familiar with. The original story is about a group of strangers who meet up for a supernatural experiment within this notoriously haunted home. You may have even seen the 1963 classic titled The Haunting or even the 1999 film (though the 1999 was not so well received). This new Netflix original series, however, takes the story in a very different direction. Yet, I would say that this adaptation captures the essences of Jackson's gothic horror novel better than any of the adaptations that came before it.

The challenges faced by all market participants are heavily contextualised by the unprecedented energy market revolution now taking place, driven by policy initiatives such as the Green Deal, Smart Metering and the Energy Market Review. These market transformational initiatives have naturally led to a significant volume of change in market arrangements, as demonstrated by the introduction of two new Codes: Smart Energy Code (SEC), and the Green Deal Arrangements Agreement (GDAA), together with the consequential high volume of enabling modifications to existing codes. We note here that such changes are necessary to ensure that energy market participants (of which there are many, and in different forms) are able to continue to work effectively together, whilst at the same time, enabling these important Government driven, consumer focused, transformational initiatives to be implemented.

Actress Louise Linton, the wife of Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin, flaunted designer goods in a social media post on a government trip and then boasted of her wealth when criticized for wasting government funds.
In a now deleted post on Instagram which was captured by users and shared on Twitter, Mnuchin posted a photograph of herself stepping off an Air Force plane following an official trip to Kentucky alongside her husband.
In the post she hashtagged the designer brands she was wearing.

"Great #daytrip to #Kentucky! #nicest #people #beautiful #countryside #rolandmouret pants #tomford sunnies, #hermesscarf #valentinorockstudheels #valentino #usa," she wrote.
Jenni Miller, an Oregon mother of three, responded "Glad we could pay for your little getaway. #deplorable."

But Linton lashed out, taunting Miller for having less money than she does.
"Aw!!! Did you think this was a personal trip?! Adorable!" she wrote. "Do you think the US govt paid for our honeymoon or personal travel?! Lololol. Have you given more to the economy than me and my husband? Either as an individual earner in taxes OR in self sacrifice to your country?"
Linton went on: "I'm pretty sure we paid more taxes toward our day 'trip' than you did. Pretty sure the amount we sacrifice per year is a lot more than you'd be willing to sacrifice if the choice was yours."
"You're adorably out of touch," she said, later adding, "your life looks cute" before concluding, "Go chill out and watch the new game of thrones. It's fab!"

President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump were among those who attended Mnuchin and Linton's Washington D.C. wedding, which Vice President Mike Pence officiated.
Linton has starred in "CSI: NY" and "Cold Case," as well as the film "Cabin Fever," and was criticized for a memoir she penned about volunteering in Africa which was denounced as patronizing and riddled with inaccuracies. Her husband is a former Goldman Sachs executive who worked with Trump on deals before entering government.
Miller told the New York Times that she was surprised by Linton's reaction to her Instagram post.
"I think my post was just five or six words, and she had to go on basically a rant about it to make herself look more important and look smarter, better, richer—all those things," she said.
The Treasury Department told the Times that the Mnuchins had reimbursed the government for the trip, and Linton was not paid for promoting the designer labels.

The saw is quite ergonomic, three years warranty after online registration, workpiece illumination LED and 5 blade settings. Saw on the heavier side but feels solid. Service from Alan Wadkins was brilliant.

I have some Pinguicula Gigantea seeds that I want to start as soon as possible. After reading a lot about the plant, I've learned that it's very delicate. I've never grown carnivorous plants before, and I don't want to mess it up.
I don't want to use the Miracle Gro Perlite or Peat Moss that is every where, because of the fertilizer. And I can't find any that directly says it does not contain additives or fertilizers. So I figured I would communicate with the professionals and get their opinions and learn from their insight.
Ideally, I don't want to pay a ton of money for an 8 quart bag. I just don't want something that has fertilizer in it or additives.

The following post is a sponsored post.
Since 1860, the Indian taxation has undergone multiple iterations to meet the requirements of government finances and economic policy. There have been multiple acts to deal with the irregularities in the tax system. The Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 (GST) can be considered another attempt to dissolve the economic disparities and irregularities prevalent in the system.
Tax slabs for goods and services
The 14th Goods and Services Tax Council meeting embarks multiple changes in the tax slabs 2017-18. Rates for goods are pegged at nil, 5%, 8%, 12%, and 28% and compensation cess to be levied on certain goods has been broadly approved. However, healthcare and educational services have been exempted from the purview of GST.
The government has approved tax rates for about 1200 items, of which 19 percent would levy the highest tax rate of 28 percent, putting them in the highest tax bracket, followed by 43 percent in the 18 percent bracket and 17 percent in 12 percent bracket. 7 percent of goods have been exempted and 14 percent will fall in 5 percent tax slab. Thus, 81 percent of items falling under the bracket of 18 percent or below and 19 percent with the highest tax levy of 28 percent.
Manufacturing sector is the major contributor of India's GDP. With the government initiatives like 'Make in India' and 'Digital India', it is foreseen to multiply the growth further, keeping the scenario in mind the rates of capital goods, industrial and intermediate items have been set to 18 percent. Many commodities would see reduction because of the cascading tax effects. Common use products, such as food grains, would get cheaper as the council has decided on the service tax. There would be a differentiated tax rate for beverage sector. Telecom sector will be taxed at the same rate as before; however, luxury sector has taken a maximum hit, with highest tax rate of 28%. The tax on gold is still to be decided.
Government is of the opinion that majority of commodities would witness reduction in the tax rates and there would be greater tax ebullience resulting from efficiency. It is also believed that there would be less tax evasion and more transparency. The future is still hazy but GST could be considered another strong measure by the government in the light of tax reforms.

Employees from our Chandigarh area office participated in the annual 'Flower Plantation Drive', held in December 2018. The activity was organised through the NGO 'Organic Sharing' which plans to plant 50,000 flower saplings by the end of this year in partnership with the horticulture department of Chandigarh.
The uniqueness of this event was its collaborative approach. Along with the Chandigarh team, channel partners, officers from the horticulture department, a group of school students from Bhavan Vidyalaya and NGO representatives participated in this initiative.
The drive was carried out at the scenic 'Leisure Valley Park', one of the many identified areas for this 'flowering' project. It was an enjoyable experience for the volunteers to plant saplings in the six quarries specially dug for scientific and aesthetic cultivation of colourful flowers - eventually attracting more butterflies.

For the past few years western details have been everywhere on accessories, this year leading to the cowboy boot being one of the biggest footwear trends. Think of Coachella Music Festival what you will, but observing the street style snaps taken there is a great way to find out what is going to big fashion wise for the months ahead and my annual insta-stalking got me desperate for a pair of cowboy boots. Some of my favourite looks came from The Ocean Minded, Whaelse, Janice Joostemma and of course Lucy Williams who all seemed to pull off what is quite the marmite statement boot with absolute ease.
After much searching I finally hunted down a non leather pair from Nasty Gal in black, however my heart still pines for the perfect white pair to wear with my endless collection of little white dresses this summer. In the meantime I have taken on the challenge of sharing with you how to style cowboy boots in three ways. For my first look above I have teamed them with a long sleeve floral mini dress and fedora hat, for a simple and easy look that's a little more adapted for the Great British Summertime and could easily be worn with tights too.
My second look is a polka dot midi dress and the same fedora hat, with the addition of a waist belt with western detailing. I find midi dresses to be really flattering on a midsize figure, especially if your legs are an area you feel less confident about. The V shape at the front of these boots elongates the legs while the pinched waist belt flatters curves to create a great silhouette, all with a subtle nod to a boho vibe without being too out there.
Lastly I've team my cowboy boots with faux leather leggings, an over sized t-shirt and print boyfriend fit cardigan for a more wearable day time look. Teaming the boots with black bottoms is a less scary way of trialing out this trend than bare legs, and is the most comfortable of the three looks to wear too.
Unfortunately the boots I bought have since sold out, however I have found three great non leather alternatives all under £60!
Left - Pretty Little Thing / £50.00
Middle - I Saw It First / £60.00
Right - Pretty Little Thing / £45.00

When an exhibit opens at the Historical Society of Princeton, it's almost like a return to the past. Or a way to revisit the past, and make the past present. Such was the case with the Rex Goreleigh exhibit. I hadn't been around for the days when Goreleigh's spirit enriched the Princeton community, but by studying his paintings at the Historical Society, and reading about him, I felt like Goreleigh had come back to us. I had a chance to understand his impact on this world.
Today, sadly, I received news that the exhibit will come to an end Jan. 18. Oh, no, seems unfair to lose him again. However, there's still time to see the exhibit, and hopefully we can keep him alive on the blogosphere.
Looking at the richly colored paintings of Rex Goreleigh (1902-1986), one gets a sense he treasured the subject matter – farming culture in the mid- to late-20th century Princeton area – he was chronicling. Although life as a migrant worker wasn't easy, Goreleigh captured the joy, as well as the sorrows, of these lives.
The painting that perhaps best combines this mixed feeling is "Afraid of Living, Scared of Dying." Painted in 1977, it depicts an older migrant worker who has gone off the farming circuit and settled in New Jersey. With close-cropped white hair, this slender, beautiful woman sits on a porch swing, waiting for what comes next. It is similar to the emotion immigrants experience: escaping hardships in their land of origin, yet encountering discrimination and the feeling of not fitting in the new land. This betwixt-and-between is a kind of homelessness.
Many visitors to the historical society remember Goreleigh from his days in Princeton. They may have taught, or taken classes, at his Studio on the Canal. That legendary institution was in the garage next to Goreleigh's home on Canal Road, and even the present occupant of that home has come with fascination to view the exhibit and learn about Princeton's famous African-American artist.
Born near Philadelphia, Rex grew up in the tri-state area and dabbled in theater before discovering himself as a visual artist. He portrayed himself in a production of Harlem at the Apollo Theatre in New York.
A young Goreleigh met Diego Rivera and had the opportunity to watch him at work on the Rockefeller Center murals. Through that connection he also met Ben Shahn, who would go on to create the mural in a Roosevelt public school, subsequently turning Roosevelt into an art community.
While in New York, Goreleigh got to know artists of the Harlem Renaissance, including Jacob Lawrence and Romare Bearden. Through the Federal Art Project, Goreleigh served as an arts educator, teaching children at the Utopia Neighborhood House in New York, at the South Side Community Art Center in Chicago, and a program for children and adults in North Carolina.
To further his art education, Goreleigh spent a year in Europe, studying with Andre Lhote in Paris and Leo Z. Moll in Germany (he also studied with Mr. Moll in New York). While in Finland, he painted "Senegalese Woman (Paris)," on loan to the exhibit from the collection of author Toni Morrison. The Senegalese woman wears a hat with a cocked brim, and that hat says everything about her attitude.
In a painting of the marketplace in Helsinki, "he started to use color that runs throughout his career," says HSP Curator Eileen Morales. "There are undefined figures that reappear in some of his other work."
Although Goreleigh may have felt uncomfortable among all those pale blond people – "He wrote how he stuck out like a sore thumb," says Ms. Morales – he had an air that allowed him to move in all circles and enabled him to flourish in Princeton when schools were still segregated.
"He bridged that barrier, and that's why he was tapped to be director of Princeton Group Arts," says Ms. Morales. Princeton Group Arts was an organization that emphasized inclusivity in teaching theater, music, dance, painting, sculpture, writing and crafts.
Although Princeton Group Arts held such fundraisers as a Marian Anderson concert at McCarter Theatre, it folded in 1954 due to a lack of funds. So Goreleigh set up the Studio on the Canal to continue workshops in painting, printmaking and ceramics and ran it until 1978. Some of the instructors, according to a brochure in a display case, were Glenn Cohen (sculptor), Hughie Lee Smith (painter), Vincent Ceglia (painter) and Stefan Martin (printmaker).
Goreleigh also served as the director of the arts and crafts program in Roosevelt schools in 1955-56, and on the board of the Arts Council of Princeton. He taught at Princeton Adult School, the Neuropsychiatric Institute in Skillman and Trenton school district. In 1976, eight of his works were in an exhibit at the Princeton University Art Museum, Fragments of American Life, and in 1980, the New Jersey Historical Society gave him a solo exhibit.
"When he died, he didn't get the critical analysis that others do after passing, probably because he didn't have an agent or a dealer," says Ms. Morales. "He was so well-known and well-liked that it's too bad his work didn't get such prices at auction as Jacob Lawrence and Romare Bearden's did, so we are glad we can (showcase him) now."
On view at HSP is a tobacco series Goreleigh illustrated for Britannica Junior encyclopedia, inspired by his experiences in North Carolina. These colorful images include a widow who continued raising her crop after her husband's death, even sitting out there with a rifle to protect her prized tobacco plants. The series shows her spraying, planting and inspecting her plants. There are original gouaches from 1943, as well as a more colorful series of serigraphs Goreleigh made in 1973, revisiting the subject matter.
Goreleigh's fieldworker series began in the late '60s, early '70s. He visited and painted farms in Cranbury, Roosevelt and Hightstown. "He said he was trying to depict all aspects of the human condition," says Ms. Morales, who has been researching this exhibit for a year. The series started with a watercolor, and by 1962 he had 10 full-blown oil paintings, enabling him to get a grant from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts to support the series.
"It's one of his greatest legacies – he didn't see himself as a social commentator, but he played an important role (in chronicling) labor history," Ms. Morales adds.
His 1971 "The Social Hour" shows African-American migrant workers all dressed up in satin dresses and high-heeled shoes, dancing the night away at the First Presbyterian Church in Cranbury. Some embrace and some do fancy footwork on the wood plank floor, lit from above.
Not all the paintings are this happy. A 1974 still life shows a migrant worker's "camp," with pure lard, jugs, pots, butter and a can of peas, looking as though they were quickly abandoned. Another shows a worker near a shack after a fire. These camps were permanent structures but not sturdy, and migrant workers stayed in them as they came through. Early versions made of wood with a tin or corrugated roof often caught fire, until laws required the housing be built from cinderblock. Workers might stay in these houses for six- to eight weeks at a time. In "Wash Day," we see a woman outside one of these structures with her aluminum wash tubs as a child plays nearby.
"We've framed the exhibit with stories of little known African-American history, and all those he taught and touched," says Ms. Morales. "He left behind a great legacy."
- Rex Goreleigh: Revisited in Princeton is on view at the Historical Society of Princeton, 158 Nassau St., Princeton, through Jan. 18, 2010. Gallery hours: Tues.-Sun. noon-4 p.m. 609-921-6748; www.princetonhistory.org.

Day 327: A Set of Chunky Houses
by thecraftaholic
"We must be prepared to admit our faults and stand corrected."
The Dalai Lama
I admit it sometimes
not all the time
sometimes let pride
get in the way
I just
want to put up a good face
I want to
show you who's boss
I want to
be a little fake
so my ego will be satisfied
b ut in reality
I'm wrong
I've been writing a lot of poetry lately. I hope you don't mind. I've been doing so because I went thru months where I wasn't writing and was only making art, but I love my poems, and I have been thinking about putting my poetry out there a bit more. So that's what I'm doing.
Can you believe that the 365 day mark is almost over? Yes, indeed! I'll find a way to celebrate, don't worry.
Today, I made a set of 5 chunky houses for a swap. We were supposed to make paper houses and decorate them to our wish.
So that's that. I'm not sure if they are finished yet. I might add more to it. I used tattered angels frames, and vintage music sheets for it.
Today, my husband has the day off, so we're going to enjoy the hot weather today, at least until 2pm when supposedly, it's going to start raining.

Water, one of the main elements of sustainable development, is still very scarce in the world and especially in Africa. Indeed, more than 300 million Africans suffer from access to water and many suffer from a water-borne disease. These figures are difficult to imagine when we know that Africa has abundant water resources, with 17 large rivers and over 160 major lakes.
In Central Africa, the GWP CAf has given itself the vision of a "Central Africa where water security is assured". Considering water as a determining factor for socio-economic development, the GWP CAf, through advocacy with state authorities, parliamentarians and decision-makers, raises awareness for the effective implementation of the water-related SDG 6, with an emphasis on IWRM, " a process that promotes the coordinated development and management of water, soil and associated resources, maximizing economic and social benefits in an equitable manner without compromising the sustainability of vital ecosystems.
Experts from the water sector in Central Africa challenge us on the celebration of this day and the importance of water resources :
Prosper Rodrigue YAKENDE, Agricultural Policy Officer, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, Bangui
"Water is a powerful vector of social solidarity and contributes in a very significant way to improve the well-being of the population for a sustainable development".
Désiré Armand NDEMAZAGOA-BACKOTTA, Coordinator of the Starting Unit of the Centre Régional de coordination des Ressources en Eau de l'Afrique Centrale (UD/CRGRE), Gabon
"Water Resources Management (IWRM) contributes to the respect of nature and the sustainable use of water in space and time".
LAKO MBOUENDEU Stéphane, Executive Secretary, Water For Life Cameroon
"Water is our heritage, our culture, we all have a right to it. We must reconsider the value we place on water and orient its use and sharing towards this perception. But let us remember that this water belongs to everyone and we are all responsible for it. Access to water in Central Africa remains a challenge; in rural areas there is a lack of infrastructure, services and support, in urban areas there is overwhelming demand and poor coverage and minimum service. Moreover, the balance of uses is as much a challenge as the rarity of water for agriculture in semi-arid environments. Only a few privileged actors have a voice in the matter, that is the great weakness of our countries. Inclusion and participation of all stakeholders as well as reasoned planning of decisions are pillars of IWRM to be further integrated."
Hycinth BANSEKA, Regional Coordinator GWP CAf
"The achievement of the Central African countries commitment to "Ensure access to water and sanitation for all and ensure sustainable water resources management" (Sustainable Development Goal 6) in the framework of Agenda 2030, depends not only on the development of infrastructure for water resources mobilization, but also on measures put in place to ensure the protection and the sustainable management of vulnerable ecosystems, and the establishment and effective operationalization of stakeholder coordination frameworks for water resources management at all levels."
