During the dwarves' visit to Bag End, Bilbo falls asleep and dreams he is at the Battle of Five Armies. Bilbo has no health and is invincible in this level; this level is designed to get the player used to the controls.
An Unexpected Party[edit]
Bilbo is sent to the Green Dragon, but first he must collect provisions for Bombur and do different jobs for various Hobbits.
Roast Mutton[edit]
Bilbo is sent to investigate a fire-light. This stage introduces the first enemies: wolves, frog-like creatures and at last, Bill, Tom and Bert. The last task involves sneaking past the Trolls.
Bilbo must explore the troll cave and find the troll key, needed to open the cave. It is learned that the Witch-king of Angmar built many caves in the area (when it was still known as Rhudaur), and many of his minions still lurk there. He finds Lianna, an Elf of Mirkwood, and a dagger, which he names Sting.
Over Hill and Under Hill[edit]
After visiting Elrond, Thorin and Company make for the Mountains. Bilbo is sent to find fire-wood, but ends up battling wolves and other weird creatures, and dodge stone-slinging Giants.
Riddles in the Dark[edit]
After being caught by goblins, Bilbo is separated from the rest of the Company. This level introduces Goblin-town as a Dwarf-mine, complete with lifts and a rollercoaster mine cart track. In this level, Bilbo meets Balfor, a Dwarf of the Iron Hills, and Ugslap, the Goblin guard. The level ends with Bilbo finding the Ring.
- At this point, an animation starts, depicting the riddle game, followed by a story board telling of Bilbo's reuniting with the Dwarves. A second animation depicts the hiding in the trees and the rescue by the Eagles. The narrator then summarizes the story from the drop off at the edge of Mirkwood (Beorn is omitted at this stage) to the capture of the Dwarves by the spiders.
Flies and Spiders[edit]
Bilbo is lost and must find his way through a spider infested Mirkwood (in which he has to fight many poisonous spiders, as well as "minions of the Necromancer"). He meets Corwin, a man of Lake-town, whose camp was attacked. Bilbo can retrieve his brother's ring for him. After that, he must rescue the dwarves from being eaten by the three giant spiders Wrath, Wicked and Wild.
Barrels Out of Bond[edit]
Bilbo and the dwarves are not safe out of Mirkwood yet. The dwarves are captured by elves and Bilbo must find a way to rescue them as well as a way to escape, while avoiding being seen by elves. This level introduces the extensive use of the Ring. After entering the halls, Bilbo meets Lianna again, who will help him. Bilbo must find the Dwarves and herbs to drug Galion, and battle the frog-like creatures and more spiders. From conversations Bilbo picks up when passing Elves the White Council is mentioned: they finally attacked Dol Guldur.
A Warm Welcome[edit]
Bilbo manages to put the Dwarves in barrels, and escapes to Lake-town. In Laketown, Bard and Calamar, the Master of Lake-town, recruit Bilbo for more burgling and spying. He must stop a crime syndicate of Lake-men and Orcs, who have stolen the Black Arrow. All Dwarves are scattered around Lake-town, and many of them appear for their first time here.
Inside Information[edit]
After leaving the Long Lake, Bilbo finds the secret entrance. After nerveracking sneaking, Bilbo manages to steal the Cup of Thrór from right under Smaug's nose. Smaug notices and is less than pleased, and Thorin sends Bilbo back to find the dragon's weak spot. After Bilbo shows off to "Smaug the Magnificent" and declares himself "Barrel-rider", Smaug confronts Bilbo, and heads off to Lake-town, where he meets his demise. With the Dragon gone, Bilbo must find several items - the Necklace of Girion, the spears of Bladorthin, the Ruby of Gróin and a golden serving dish. After that, he must bridge a chasm by flooding it.
The Gathering of the Clouds[edit]
In the Lonely Mountain, Thorin has only one task for Bilbo: finding the Arkenstone. Several rune-puzzles require solving before Bilbo has to go to the Treasury, the Forge, the Gear Room and the Water Room. Though there is an entrance to the Old Treasuries, Bilbo cannot go there because it stinks too much of Dragon. After creating a new key, Bilbo finds the Arkenstone. Picking it up ends the level.
- The narrator introduces the next problem: the Men and Elves. Bilbo sneaks off and gives the Arkenstone to Thranduil and Bard, and for that, he is cursed by Thorin. When Dáin Ironfoot arrives, all seems to end in battle. But a flash of lightning marks the return of Gandalf, who informs them of Goblins.
The Clouds Burst[edit]
This level is the Battle of Five Armies. Bilbo, who stands with Gandalf and Thranduil on Ravenhill, volunteers to bring a message to Bard; he is about to be attacked in the rear. During his trip he must save Corwin, and on Lianna sends him to find Beorn. After a short rampage, Beorn is captured, and Bilbo must free him by kicking over several barrels. After freeing Beorn, the game is finished: Beorn kills Bolg, who sits on a giant warg on an inaccessible dias.
- After this, the narrator starts the epilogue. Laketown is rebuilt, Bilbo gets a reward, and walks home with Beorn and Gandalf. Neither the auction of Bag End nor the visit of Balin are featured.
Original characters[edit]
- Lianna: An elf of Thranduil's Hall in Mirkwood, Bilbo must heal her in the Troll Cave. She eventually helps Bilbo escape from Thranduil's Hall, and later fights in the Battle of Five Armies.
- Corwin: A sad, heartbroken woodsman from Lake-town. Bilbo meets him, and he says he is the only survivor of an attack of the spiders on his camp. He helps Bilbo get through an immensely thick web. He reappears in the last level as a combatant in the Battle of Five Armies.
- Balfor: A dwarf of the Iron Hills who has been made a slave of the goblins. They force him to work the dwarf-built mining contraptions. Bilbo rescues him and Balfor tells him how to escape. Unlike Lianna or Corwin, he is not shown to participate in the Battle of Five Armies.
- Ugslap: A Goblin who is the guard of Balfor. After doing some chores for him in the assumption that it will free Balfor, Ugslap betrays Bilbo, which leads to his untimely death.

Should Energy Source Matter in Home Energy Auditing?
In the context of home energy auditing, the Home Energy Score can be very misleading since it is based on "source energy," which severely penalizes electrical energy sources ("Energy Performance Score," Jan/Feb '12, p. 6). Environmental and home energy efficiency issues are thus combined. Home energy auditing is concerned with improving the energy efficiency of residences regardless of the energy source. The credibility of this score would be enhanced if its basis is made clear and scoring is based only on the energy consumption of homes. Environmental concerns are valid but do not belong in home energy auditing.

In Memoriam
Dariush Arasteh, an efficient windows expert in the Environmental Energy Technologies Department at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, passed away on February 3 after an eight-year battle with cancer. He was 51 years old. A 30-year lab veteran, Arasteh was involved in all aspects of research on energy-efficient windows, with a focus on highly insulating "superwindows," creating a suite of computer tools to analyze window-heat transfer, and leading industry to develop a rating system for the thermal performance of windows.
He will be missed by his wife Nancy Hendrickson, his son Jasper Arasteh, his colleagues at the lab and many friends.
Author Steve Mann replies:
Thank you for your comment. Personally, I don't agree. Electric energy sources are inherently inefficient because of production and delivery methods. Many legal authorities and energy codes recognize that inefficiency. A lot of analysis software produces CO2 emissions numbers because homeowners are interested in understanding their carbon footprint.
Those numbers would be useless if they ignored source energy. Like so many things in this world, including source energy in home energy auditing software seems to me to be a matter of personal taste, not a black and white issue. We do agree on one thing—the credibility of all home energy auditing scores depends on a very clear explanation of the principles underlying that score.
Readers forum
Home Energy occasionally receives letters from readers that do not refer to previous articles but reflect a common concern of the home performance community. The editors have decided to create a new category in the Letters section, the Readers Forum. We invite readers to send letters expressing opinions and ideas for this section of the magazine.
Energy Bill Disclosure and Modeling
There is little dispute that energy bills are a major cost to American homeowners, often the single biggest monthly cost after a mortgage payment. Clearly, the fact that this information is not disclosed at the time of sale is a major missing link in the value chain of residential energy efficiency. While it is logical to assume that a house that costs less to operate should command a higher resale value, and should have a measurably lower risk of default, than a typical home, we currently lack sound data to validate this assumption. Public policies concerning energy bill disclosure are moving forward based on incomplete data, and on the belief that labeling the energy use of homes for sale will cause a significant increase in the adoption of residential energy efficiency. This belief is not clearly supported by the data either.
While it is valid to assume that energy bill disclosure will increase the value, and the market penetration, of efficient houses, this assumption remains unproven. No study has demonstrated the relative value of different approaches to energy disclosure; nor has there been any statistically valid analysis linking the cost of various approaches with their relative impact on the market. Without this information, no informed policy decisions can be made that balance the value of a particular approach to energy disclosure with its costs, and with its ability to drive the private investment of capital.
We must stop looking for a one-size-fits-all approach to energy bill disclosure. Valid approaches may range from simple disclosure, on the one hand, to a savings prediction that is valid on a house-by-house basis. Up to now, we have been searching for one approach that will produce two different things at once. First, it will produce an asset rating that is based on the house independent of occupant behavior—a rating that is modeled on large volumes of data (averages) or on the relationship of actual home performance to code. Second, it will produce an accurate savings prediction to individual homeowners—a prediction of statistically acceptable accuracy sufficient to drive capital investment on a pooled basis, insure risk, and allow the conversion of energy efficiency (EE) into a measurable resource.
As the saying goes, good / fast / cheap, pick any two. If we want to put labels on perhaps 70 million homes over the next 20 years, it is reasonable that simple disclosure or labeling should be fast and cheap rather than good—that is, accurate. A $500 rating is not a reasonable policy objective when you consider the $30+ billion price tag to reach every house. However, if we want to guarantee consumer savings, attract capital that will offset debt load as a means of reducing risk, or sell savings to a utility as a capacity resource, we need to be good. We need to adopt more stringent techniques for applications that require this additional level of accuracy. Such techniques must include occupant behavior in predicting savings. The relationship of a house to code, or relative to other homes, is not important in these cases. What really matters is the actual savings delivered at the meter. This is the tangible value that EE creates.
For EE to become a tradable resource, it is essential that market actors agree on a standard way to measure that resource, whether it be in pounds, kilograms, or kilowatt-hours. Standardized measures provide transparency and efficient pricing, which allows the market to function. To date, the residential EE sector has suffered from the lack of a standard for measuring the savings resulting from EE measures. Until a precise and accurate system for quantifying energy savings can be developed, the market for EE will remain underdeveloped and unable to access the massive flows of private capital that comprise the world's largest sector—energy.
Approaches to Energy Disclosure
Below is a list of the various methods of energy disclosure, beginning with the cheapest approach.
Disclose historical energy use. With regulatory changes, simple disclosure could be essentially free. There is also an argument to be made that actual bills are much more relevant to, and more easily interpreted by, consumers than any sort of metric or score. What is Btu/ft2 or a 7 out of 10, let alone a 139 on a HERS scale, to your average homeowner? It may in fact be easier to get potential buyers to take the real bill and then normalize factors such as occupancy or relative size of the house, based on common sense and their own experience, than to try to get people to adopt new metrics (we need study!).
This is actually closer to miles per gallon (mpg) in many ways than it is to a HERS score. Mpg is not a metric calculated by adding up all the components of a car; it is gas use per mile based on running and measuring the whole car performance. However, it is also important to note that when you are on a car lot, you assess that car based on structured, tested mpg; but if you ask someone the mileage of the car they own, they will almost always answer based on the consumption they are actually getting.
Disclose normalized energy use. This approach normalizes energy bill data based on a few simple metrics that are generally available in the public domain. These metrics include size, location (heating and cooling degree-days), and occupancy based on number of bedrooms plus one. The result is an approach that is based on actual data, but is normalized to make it easier to compare two houses side-by-side. This approach has the disadvantage of being more confusing to the consumer than the simple dollars per month of just looking at the bills. But it could easily be combined with simple bill disclosure, and it could accomplish energy use disclosure with a simple regulatory change to disclosure requirements.
Simple energy scores. This category includes the DOE Home Energy Score (HES) and the Earth Advantage Energy Performance Score (EPS). While these take different approaches, and generate different types of output (EPS uses Btu/ft2; HES uses a scale of 1 to 10), each is designed to deliver a simple asset score based on a very limited number of inputs and little to no performance testing. Although it has not been shown conclusively that simple energy scores as a disclosure item drive adoption of EE, or influence home value, better than bill disclosure, at least they are cheaper and faster than a full HERS test. HES also has the advantage of being built with an application programming interface (API) that allows third-party software to generate the rating without requiring auditors to use yet another piece of software. It is also important that ratings be performance based (that is, that they demonstrate accuracy against real homes) and that they not be exclusive to one system. However, if we are to accept the selection of a single winning system, rating algorithms should be transparent and subject to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) consensus process rather than be hidden in a proprietary black box.
The disadvantage of simple energy scores is that they cannot be used to generate work scopes or savings predictions on an individual house. Their limited inputs do not always allow for the variety of measures conducted in the field. This, and the fact that they cannot be calibrated with actual occupant behavior or bills, makes them too blunt a tool for home performance that relates to a specific house—rather than an average based on a pool of houses.
Home energy ratings. HERS scores are based on creating a whole house simulation of a building, based on standard occupant behavior, and comparing that simulation to a code reference house. This approach combines the cost and complexity of a full-scale energy audit and modeling exercise with the lack of accuracy that results from using average data for behavior and constraints on model inputs. A score that is based how a house compares to a code (which changes every few years) is a score that is hard for consumers to understand. This is partly because the score is expressed as a number on a scale where 0 is best, and partly because energy consumption is based on source consumption and not on the consumer's meter.
Home Performance Modeling
We are currently in a transitional period in the home performance industry. Let's look first at what is best practice today, and then at where we need to be in the future. Today's best practice to provide modeled results that closely resemble actual savings is based on the combination of a simulation model of building characteristics and actual occupant behavior that is calibrated to actual energy bills (see BPI Standard 2400). This approach can be seen in the recently proposed 25E tax credit.
As we move forward we need to move to a model where rather than specify a standard for how to predict saving, we instead measure how an approach to retrofitting (standards, certification, QA, software) delivers on predicted savings in terms of variance and average savings against actual bill data. This would constitute a true performance approach. Such an approach will provide the type of data that will create manageable risk around portfolios of energy efficiency retrofits, which will allow utilities to start treating them as an actual capacity resource, and will allow for securitization of those portfolios into an investment-grade product that financial markets can invest in.
In sum, bill disclosure, or even a simple rating at time of sale, will probably help to close the loop on the energy efficiency value chain that has been broken by the inability of home sellers and buyers to realize its value at the time of sale. However, any home retrofitting policy that is deployed should carefully balance costs against benefits. And—given the absolute requirement that private capital markets must begin to invest in residential EE in order for this industry to reach scale—these rating or labeling policies must be harmonized with the type of investment-grade output that the market requires.
One size does not fit all, and policy makers should recognize that any disclosure system that gets implemented must leave room for market innovation. Energy labeling and home retrofitting policy should be developed in a way that does not force an evolving energy efficiency market into a regulatory straitjacket. As an industry, we must test our beliefs and assumptions based on scientifically valid results from actual tests in the market, and compare these results to real performance measured at the meter. And we must do this before we spend billions of dollars on large-scale rollouts of untested systems that are supported by conflicting data that make the effectiveness of these systems, at the very least, uncertain.

It is our goal to keep your mouth healthy, your teeth fully functional, and your smile bright — and we are proud of all the services we offer to do exactly that. At the same time, we want you to understand all that modern dentistry in general has to offer you. To that end, we have assembled a first-rate dental library in which you can find a wealth of information on various dental topics, including:
From a thorough professional cleaning to a full smile makeover, there is an amazing array of services that cosmetic and general dentists offer to make sure your teeth stay healthy, function well and look great. If your smile is not all you want it to be, this is the place to start. Read more about Cosmetic & General Dentistry.
When you have a dental emergency — whether it's caused by a sudden accident or chronic disease — your teeth and/or the tissues of the mouth that surround them need to receive proper care right away. It's also important to be aware, before you're actually in the situation, of what you can do to ensure the best outcome. Read more about Emergency Dental Care.
This is the branch of dentistry that focuses on the inside of the tooth — specifically the root canals and sensitive, inner pulp (nerve) tissue. When this tissue becomes inflamed or infected, a root canal procedure may become necessary. But contrary to the popular myth, a root canal doesn't cause pain, it relives it. Read more about Endodontics.
If you are missing one or more teeth, dental implants offer the comfort and security of a permanent replacement that looks and functions just like your natural teeth. Dental implants also help preserve the tooth-supporting bone in your jaw that naturally deteriorates when even one tooth is lost. Read more about Implant Dentistry.
Oral health is an essential component of general health and well-being. Good oral health means a mouth that's free of disease; a bite that functions well enough for you to eat without pain and get ample nutrition; and a smile that lets you express your happiest emotions with confidence. Read more about Oral Health.
A major goal of modern dentistry is to help you keep your teeth and gums healthy for a lifetime. By following a conscientious program of oral hygiene at home, and coming to the dental office for routine cleanings and exams, you have the best chance of making this goal a reality. Read more about Oral Hygiene.
The word "surgery" often brings to mind a stay in the hospital, general anesthesia, and perhaps a lengthy recovery period. However, the experience of having oral surgery is usually very different from that. Some common oral surgery procedures include: tooth extractions, dental implant placement, and biopsies of suspicious oral lesions. Read more about Oral Surgery.
Adults and kids alike can benefit from the boost in self-confidence that comes from having a great-looking smile with beautifully aligned teeth. Orthodontic treatment can even improve chewing, speaking and oral hygiene in certain cases. And with today's virtually invisible orthodontic appliances, it's possible to keep your treatment a private matter… until your new smile is unveiled, of course! Read more about Orthodontics.
It's never too early to get your child started on the path toward a lifetime of good oral health, and there are many services to do exactly that. Monitoring your child's dental growth and development, and preventing and intercepting dental diseases along the way, is the primary focus of pediatric dentistry. Read more about Pediatric Dentistry.
If you want to keep your teeth for life — a completely reasonable goal in this day and age — you need to make sure the tissues that surround them are also healthy. Should gum problems arise, you may need periodontal therapy to restore diseased tissues to health. Read more about Periodontal Therapy.
In the field of dentistry, new technology is constantly changing the way diseases are diagnosed, routine procedures are performed, and illnesses are prevented. Although they may seem unfamiliar at first, new and improved dental technologies offer plenty of real benefits for patients. Read more about Technology.
What does the phrase "oral health" mean to you? No new cavities at your dental checkup? That's certainly part of it. But it's really so much more than a lack of tooth decay. Good oral health means a mouth that's free of disease - which can range all the way from mild gingivitis (gum inflammation) to oral cancer; a bite that functions well enough for you to eat without pain and get ample nutrition; and a smile that lets you express your happiest emotions with confidence. Simply put, oral health is a crucial component of your overall health and well-being.
It's important to realize that small - and readily treatable - problems in your mouth can become more complicated, painful and expensive if neglected for too long. Some of these oral health conditions may even have ramifications throughout the whole body. Gingivitis, for example, can sometimes progress to periodontitis - a more serious form of gum disease that can loosen teeth and cause them to fall out. Missing teeth can lead to bone loss in the jaw and inadequate nutrition. And numerous studies have shown that people with severe gum disease may be at increased risk for developing cardiovascular disease. The moral of this story: Routine maintenance can pay off big.
One of the most important things you can do to safeguard your oral health is to maintain a daily oral hygiene routine that effectively removes plaque from your teeth. It's the bacteria that thrive in the plaque biofilm that cause so many oral health problems. Effective oral hygiene involves brushing your teeth twice daily with a fluoride toothpaste and flossing at least once per day to remove plaque from between the teeth.
Nutrition and lifestyle choices also play an important role. You don't have any control over hereditary factors that may predispose you to gum disease - but you do have control over how much sugar you eat and when you eat it; how often you exercise; whether you smoke; and how often you visit the dentist.
If you only see a dentist when problems arise, you may be missing out on some important benefits! As doctors who specialize in oral health, dentists offer a wide range of preventive services. At your regular exams, for example, you will be checked for any signs of oral cancer, tooth decay, gum disease, and other oral infections; hard-to-reach deposits from your teeth will be cleaned; and you can get answers to any questions you have on topics ranging from oral hygiene issues to the connection between oral health and systemic diseases.
So please don't wait for a serious problem to come up before you make an appointment at the dental office. Having regular checkups could save you lots of time, aggravation, and cost in the long run. It could even save your teeth! Working together, we can take proactive steps toward a healthy future.

Does Tiger Woods have a new girlfriend? The divorced golfer has struck up a serious relationship with Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn, HollywoodLife reports.
Does Tiger Woods have a new girlfriend? The divorced golfer has struck up a serious relationship with Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn, HollywoodLife reports.
Get all the scoop on pilot seasonAccording to the report, the couple met through the ski community in November. Since then, the report says that Vonn has taught Woods' kids, Sam, 5, and Charlie, 2, how to ski. And if she's met his kids, then it must be serious, right?Maybe, maybe not. While Vonn was seen with Woods in Vail, Colo., in November, she told the The Denver Post afterward, "We are just friends." In fact, she said that she wasn't even the one teaching Woods' two children how to hit the slopes. "My brother was the ski instructor for his kids this November in Vail. Guessing that's where it came from."Then again, Woods and Vonn were also reportedly spotted in Salzburg, Austria, at the same time earlier this month.
Photos: Stars who don't look their ageA statement from Vonn's rep neither confirms nor denies the rumored relationship. "Lindsey is currently in the midst of the World Cup season in Europe," Vonn's rep told Us Weekly. "Her focus is solely on competing and on defending her titles and thus she will not participate in any speculation surrounding her personal life at this time."Woods divorced Elin Nordegren in 2010 after his cheating scandal broke. Vonn's divorce from her husband, former skier Thomas Vonn, was finalized earlier this month.Do you think Woods and Vonn would make a good couple?

Excellent driver, showed us everything around Rishikesh. We had a great time in Shivpuri. The cab was neat and clean. 5 stars for everything. Booking for 2 more trips right now.
The Wiwigo team was quick to understand our needs and very welcoming. They arranged to pick us up early in the morning and showed us around the city. The overall experience was great. Will definitely use them again on my next trip to India.
Great service and driver. Same cab arrived as seen in the picture. Very pleased- will use again.
Very professional and transparent in their dealings- cab was immaculate and driver was great. I had a great trip to Agra. Next year, I would use Wiwigo again when I come back again. This time I would like to visit Jaipur.
We had a very busy schedule and wanted to see around Delhi. Wiwigo team was prompt in arranging cab for us. We had a great time visiting different places and capturing the memories in our cameras. Highly recommended.

A prize-winning collection of linked monologues and dialogues in prose and poetry by characters, between 10 and 15 years old, who live on bankrupt English manor in the time of the Crusades
Good Masters! Sweet Ladies! Voices From a Medieval Village. By Laura Amy Schlitz. Ilustrated by Robert Byrd. Candlewick, 85 pp., $15.95. Ages 10 and up.
By Janice Harayda
This is a refreshingly subversive book. Perhaps only a school librarian like Laura Amy Schlitz could have found a way not just to publish but to win a Newbery Medal for a book that defies almost every fashion in American education.
Good Masters! Sweet Ladies! is about children like the destitute Barbary, who knows that a lord's daughter will someday give birth "and squat in the straw, / and scream with the pain / and pray for her life / same as me." It's about girls like the crippled Constance, who makes a pilgrimage to a site associated with Saint Winifred, who was decapitated after she fought a man who tried to "seize" (read: rape) her. (Her head miraculously reattached itself her body.) And it's about boys like the miller's son Otho, who plans to cheat his customers the way his father does because: "There's no use in looking back, / for here's the truth I've found: / It's hunger, want, and wickedness / that makes the world go 'round."
This book is, in other words, about everday life in the Middle Ages, as described in 19 linked monologues and two dialogues by characters between the ages of 10 and 15. All of the speakers live on or near an English manor that, in 1255, has been bankrupted by the Crusades. So it isn't surprising that their talk often turns to God, Jesus, the Apostles, the Virgin Mary, Hell, Judgment Day and saints who died gruesome deaths. Their lives are so brutal that for some, this world has nothing on the next.
To help children make sense of all of it, Schlitz adds background in marginal notes and pages of explanatory text that can get a bit breezy. Why did people go on Crusades? Partly because the pope said that killing people was "a religious duty": "Ordinary people could escape the tedium of their everyday lives, see the world, kill Muslims, and go to heaven in the bargain." Schlitz almost makes it sound as though you could get frequent flyer miles for it. In a post-9/11 world, you can't get much less fashionable than talking about killing Muslims, in a tone that borders on flip, in book intended for use in schools.
The monologues tend to work better than the interleaved explanatory pages, but it's unclear why some characters speak in prose and others in poetry. The verse forms range from bouncy dactyls to stately heroic couplets, which helps to keep the speeches from becoming monotonous. But some of Schlitz's poetry is hard enough to scan that it may defeat many students and even teachers. This book would have benefited from a few notes on the verse forms and on the obvious parallels with Chaucer's Canterbury Tales.
Even so, it's a worthy Newbery winner. Good Masters, Sweet Ladies! offers a fascinating view of the Middle Ages from which many adults may learn as much as children. Schlitz's characters tell exciting stories of falconry, boar-hunting and other pursuits that offer more realistic view of medieval life than fairy tales about demure princesses. And although the Newbery judges aren't supposed to consider the artwork, it can't have hurt that this book has such appealing watercolor and pen-and-ink illustrations by Robert Byrd, who found inspiration in an illuminated poem from 13th-century Germany.
Best line: A lament by Lowdy, the daughter of a varlet (a man who looked after the animals owned by the lord of the manor): "Fleas in the pottage bowl, / Fleas in the bread, / Bloodsucking fleas / In the blankets of our beds …" Good Masters! Sweet Ladies! has many good lines, but these stand out because they are written in dactylic meter, which is much less common in children's books than iambic or anapestic.
Worst line: Schlitz writes about the Children's Crusade as though its existence were an established fact: "In 1212, a French shepherd boy had a vision that the Holy Land could be recovered by innocent children. Thirty to forty thousand children from France and Germany set off to Palestine, believing that God would favor their cause because of their faith, love, and poverty. They believed that when they reached the Mediterranean, it would part, like the Red Sea. They were mistaken. Most of them starved, froze to death, or were sold into slavery." Many scholars question whether this crusade occurred or, if it did, whether it attracted "thirty to forty thousand" children. Schlitz gives no source for this information beyond a general bibliography that lists only one book that deals primarily with the Crusades.
Published: August 2007 www.candlewick.com
Furthermore: Good Masters! Sweet Ladies! won the 2008 John Newbery Medal from the American Library Association, given to the most distinguished work of American literature for children www.ala.org/ala/alsc/awardsscholarships/literaryawds/newberymedal/newberymedal.htm .
Schlitz also wrote an excellent neo-Gothic novel for ages 10 and up, A Drowned Maiden's Hair www.oneminutebookreviews.wordpress.com/2007/03/10/. Robert Byrd's site is www.robertbyrdart.com.

Winter is the time for soups and I have been certainly making a lot of them lately! Lasagna has to be one of my all time favourite meals and when I recently came across the idea for a lasagna soup on a farmgil's dabbles I was immediately enamored with it. A basic lasagna is made with layers of a tomato meat sauce, pasta and cheese and this soup has them all! At the base of the soup is some tasty Italian sausage along with diced tomatoes to form the 'sauce' of the soup and of course it is easy to add pasta to any soup and that only leaves the cheese layer which is added just before serving in the form of a dollop of cheese that melts quite nicely into the hot soup.
This soup is pretty easy to make and when it is cold out I certainly don't mind the long simmering times that soups often require to bring out their flavours. Really the only thing that you need to remember when making this soup is to not add the pasta until the very end as you do not want to overcook it. The 'cheese layer' of this lasagna soup is made from a mixture of ricotta, mozzarella and parmesan and once the soup is ready and plated add as much of the cheese as you want to the piping hot soup and watch it melt in.
This lasagna soup has to be one of the best soups that I have had so far this winter and the flavours really do remind me a lot of lasagna. One of my favourite parts of this soup is that the cheese topping melts and the mozzarella get all gorgeously stringy which works surprisingly well in a soup!
In addition to being pretty hearty for a winter soup, if you go easy on the cheese, and I find it hard to do that, this soup is actually on the healthier side. While I was enjoying the soup I was thinking that you could make it even healthier by adding things like spinach, kale, zucchini or even beans and I am really liking the idea adding some spinach to my next batch!
Lasagna Soup
Lasagna is made with a tomato based meat sauce layered with pasta and cheese and this soup has it all from the tasty Italian sausage and tomatoes to the pasta and it is topped off with a dollop of cheesy goodness that will warm your heart on a cold winters day.
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 pound Italian sausage, casings removed
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds, crushed
- 4 cups chicken broth or chicken stock
- 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 bay leaf
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 pound pasta (gluten free for gluten free)
- 4 ounces ricotta
- 1/2 cup parmesan, grated
- 2 cup mozzarella, shredded
- 1 handful basil, chopped
- Heat the oil in a large sauce pan over medium heat add the sausage and cook until lightly browned, about 10 minutes, breaking it apart as you go and set aside reserving the remaining oil and grease.
- Add the onion and saute until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the garlic, red pepper flakes and fennel and saute until fragrant, about a minute.
- Add the chicken broth, tomatoes, tomato paste, sausage, oregano, bay leaf, salt and pepper, bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes. (If you have the time this soup will benefit from being simmered longer.)
- Add the pasta and cook until al-dente, about 7 minutes and remove from heat.
- Mix the ricotta, parmesan and mozzarella and serve the soup garnished with a tablespoon of the mixture along with the basil.

By Ed firstname.lastname@example.com — After a season of parity throughout the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference, the second season as now arrived.The GLIAC Tournament opens tonight with its first round matchup. The Hillsdale College men's basketball team begins the playoffs as the No. 5 seed and will visit No. 4 seed Grand Valley State tonight at 7 p.m.Hillsdale (17-9, 13-9 GLIAC) earned the fifth spot by winning the tiebreaker over No. 6 seed Ferris State, which also went 13-9 in conference play. The Chargers' 87-79 victory over the Bulldogs on Dec. 17 was the determining tiebreaker.The Chargers and Grand Valley State (18-8, 15-7 GLIAC) met once in the regular season, with the Lakers scoring a 67-58 victory Dec. 15 at Jesse Philips Arena. That night, Hillsdale held a three-point lead at halftime and held a 39-23 rebounding advantage for the game, but the Lakers outscored the Chargers 40-28 in the second half to take the victory.Tim Dezelski scored 21 points and grabbed eight rebounds for Hillsdale, while Brandon Pritzl had 12 points. Nick Washburn had eight points and eight rebounds. Grand Valley State had three players score in double figures, with Breland Hogan leading the way with 14 points.Both teams had hot stretches during the regular season, but cooled off down the stretch. Hillsdale opened the season with six straight wins, then later had a pair of four-game winning streaks. However, the Chargers entering the tournament having lost three of their last four games, including a tough 74-66 loss at Findlay last Saturday.Grand Valley State's victory over the Chargers was part of its 8-1 start to the season. But since putting together a five-game winning streak in January, the Lakers have alternated wins and losses over their last eight games. The Lakers closed the regular season with an 81-73 victory over Ferris State last Saturday.Defense and rebounding will be a key factor in tonight's game. Grand Valley State had the best scoring defense in the GLIAC during the season, holding opponents to 59.8 points per game. The Lakers are ranked seventh in NCAA Division II in points allowed per game.The Lakers and Hillsdale were the top two teams in the conference in opponents' field goal percentage, with Grand Valley holding teams to 39.9 percent shooting and the Chargers limiting teams to 41.2 percent shooting.Dezelski and Washburn look to be key factors in Hillsdale's front court. The juniors finished this season as the GLIAC's top rebounding duo (combined 14.0 per game), while Washburn led the league with 52 blocked shots. Dezelski led the Chargers in scoring (16.2 points per game) while Washburn was second (13.1 per game).Ryan Sabin was the only Laker to average double figures in scoring at 11.3 points per game. Tyrone Lee finished as Grand Valley's top rebounder (5.9 per game), while Kristers Zeidaks was right behind him at 5.8 rebounds per night.The teams have some playoff history, as tonight's game is the third GLIAC Tournament meeting since 2008. Grand Valley State eliminated the Chargers in the 2008 tournament, and Hillsdale returned the favor in 2010.Tonight's other first round matchups are: No. 1 Wayne State vs. No. 8 Lake Superior State, No. 2 Michigan Tech vs. No. 7 Northwood and No. 3 Findlay vs. Ferris State.The GLIAC Tournament semifinals and finals will take place Saturday and Sunday at the highest remaining seed's campus.

MADDOCKS: Glenn Beck to organize a march on God, describes deity as 'a taker'
The mercurial broadcaster Glenn Beck, who two years ago was calling for a religious rebirth in America, now wants to confront God publicly and loudly about His "leftist agenda" and unwillingness to take responsibility for actions that have left the conservative movement in tatters.
"Something that is beyond man is happening here. Sandy, Mitt Romney, Nate Silver – something isn't right and I think it has to do with the man upstairs," Mr. Beck told reporters, in what was part religious revival and part history lecture. "America today, and with my help, begins to turn its back on this God."
Mr. Beck, who hosts the "Glenn Beck Program," a nationally syndicated talk-radio show that airs throughout the United States on Premiere Radio Networks, said he is worried that when it comes to God, "a victim mentality has taken over."
"After Nov. 6, God has a lot to answer for," Mr. Beck said.
He is hoping to mobilize some 300,000 to 650,000 people to join him on his march to the grounds of the state capital building in Oklahoma City where the conservative pundit expects to view the 2,000-pound granite block depicting – with some misspellings - the Ten Commandments and to confront – with no misgivings - the Omnipotent One.
"I am at peace, which I think is a better place than God in right now," Mr. Beck said.
At times emotional, strident, and petulant, Mr. Beck accused God of fostering – even encouraging – a dependency that was stripping the country of its entrepreneurial spirit turning this once vital republic into a haven for the shiftless and the networthless.
"If you are asking me if I think God is a taker – well there is nothing I have seen in the last 18 months that would make me think otherwise," he said.
Critics have suggested that Mr. Beck is trying to energize conservatives following the dispiriting election results this month. Mainstream Republican leaders, though, remain skittish about Mr. Beck and they had little to say about his planned march on God.
In an interview aired Sunday, Mr. Beck denied any political motivation — or political aspiration — and shrugged off conservatives' suggestions that his willingness to call God out made him presidential material.
"There's nothing we can do that will solve the problems that we have and keep the peace unless we solve it through God – and by through I mean running roughshod over His will if that's what it takes," he told "Fox News Sunday."
Mr. Beck expressed regret that some remarks he made in the heat of Election Night may have been understood to have suggested that God was a racist with a deep-seated hatred for white people.
"I think Sununu might have been egging me on," said Mr. Beck, referring to John Sununu, the former White House chief of staff and co-chair of GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney's campaign.
He said he had come to see God not as a racist but as an advocate of "the liberal social policies," but, added, "that doesn't excuse what he has done to our movement."
Mr. Beck reiterated his objections to Obamacare and said he feared that "progressives" were moving the United States toward socialism and that entitlement programs like Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid must be ended.
But he said that none of that would be of such high concern if God had done his job in 2012.
"I think it's time the two of us sit down have a serious talk about what His plans are, because I am not sure I like the direction He is taking this country," Mr. Beck said.
The talk show host, though, did offer hope for the future – for both the country and God.
"I think we are the people who should be His natural constituency," Mr. Beck said. "I think He just has to do a better job of getting his message out."

An eighth-grader likes clothes, music and acting, but not having a stepmother
Cinderella Cleaners #3: Rock & Role. By Maya Gold. Scholastic, 173 pp., $5.99 paperback. Ages 8–11.
By Janice Harayda
Are stereotypes of stepmothers making a comeback? You might wonder after dipping into a new preteen-fiction series about a middle-school student who helps out at her family's dry cleaning shop in Weehawken, NJ.
Thirteen-year-old Diana Donato loves clothes, music, acting and her three best friends. But she wishes her kind-hearted father had never married her stepmother, Fay, who "always says no."
In Rock & Role, Diana gets a chance to try out for a music video when, on her way to make a delivery for Cinderella Cleaners, she meets a 16-year-old pop star. Will her stepmother thwart her hopes? Fay is so bland that she turns out to be less of an obstacle than the questionable judgment Diana sometimes shows while pursuing a role in the video.
But the outcome is never really in doubt. Rock & Role is Cinderella story on more than one level. Apart from her unwelcome stepmother and her overindulged stepsisters, Diana has a counterpart to the industrious mice in Cinderella – a friendly tailor at Cinderella Cleaners who whips up a vest for her to wear in the video. Rock & Role is also as sanitized as 1950s Disney movie, a novel free of sex, profanity and descriptions of the adolescent body changes that some preteens have been reading about for years in Judy Blume. And yet, on its own terms – which are the terms of literary fast food – it has more going for it many similar books. Diana is an upbeat, hardworking eighth-grader who has goals and faith in her ability to achieve them. She knows brand names – Converse, Hollister, iPod – without being obsessed with them. Her friends aren't mean-spirited.
Even so, you wish Maya Gold had tried harder to avoid stereotypes, and not just of evil stepmothers. Diana's friend Sara Parvati, whose family comes from India, gets straight A's in school. Literary images of brainy Asian children may not be damaging as ethic slurs, but they're still stereotypes. And equal opportunity won't exist in children's books until young Indian, Korean and Japanese characters have the same freedom that others do – the right, at times, to be mediocre students.
Best line: "Now it's like we're stuck halfway out on this wobbly bridge between Just Friends and We're Going Out …"
Worst line: "Sara gets straight A's and once won a regional spelling bee." Again, are any Asians in children's fiction not brainy (or, alternately, computer geeks)?
Published: June 2010
Furthermore: Other books in the Cinderella Cleaners series include Change of a Dress and Prep Cool (both published by Scholastic, April 2010), and Mask Appeal (Scholastic, August, 2010).
