It appears one verit- ¦ able fact that "All the nations rejoice ' and give thanks to the tele;)hone." Alexander Graham Bell first saw the j light cf day on March 3, 1847, at Edin- j burgh, Scotland. His father, Alex- ' under M. Bell, was the inventor of a , system whereby deuf mutes could have : their speech restored. Young Bell at- ! tended the public schools of his town ! and later studied at Edinburgh Uni-l versity. At the age of 23 years Bell I und his futher emigrated to Canudu. I It W.IS here that the future inventor began a vital study of relationship be¬ tween sound and electricity. His main reason for this was to gain a thorough scope of his father's speech system, wbich young Bell now taught profes- siimully One of his experiments in ' tliis direction was to mount a human j enr and study its adaptions for receiv- ; ing sound. This period inculcated into' Bell's great brain the idea of the tele- ; phone. He realized its possibilities j and the thought haunted him until he succeeded in conquering it. Two years i afterward Bell was offered a profess¬ orship in vocal physiology at the Bos- | ton University,' Boston, Mass. This j was accepted nnd his domicile was : changed to the Hub. Bell now became ! interested in what he called the har i monic telegraph, the object of which j was to send seven or eight Morse mess- ; ages on one single wire without inter-! ference. Though his idea was never ' perfected, it led to a tremendously im-! portant discovery later on One even-1 ing shortly afterward. Bell was work- ' ing on a model with his assistant, Thomas A. Watson. Casually, tbe former remarked: "Watson I want to: tell you of another iaea I have which I ! think will surprise you. If I could make a current of electricity Vary in i intensity, precisely as the air varies ; in density, during the production of! sound, I should be able to transfer i speech telegraphically." These iden-1 tical words form the idea which bad surged behind Bell's high forehead for years. Instruments were made on this { principle and the construction of the first Bell telephone bad commenced. j Failure after failure ensued, and at | times both Bell and his assistant, j Watson, would have gladly thrown up ' their hands had not aome insistent : power concentrated them to it. Fin-] ally defects were located in the instru¬ ment These were remedied and sud i denly good fortune stared them in the ! face. A wire had been rigged from i the attic down two stories, the proper i apparatus was at botb ends. Watson on the lower level had the receiver to his ear, when" he heurd a jumble of | words that sounded like "Mr. Watson, I please come here, I want you." Evi-j dently Bell .experienced some difTiculty • at his end and had called his assistant, whu he thought was in the next room. \ At the time he did not know that those words were going into history as the . first ever spoken over the telephone.

An amendment to the labor laws of 1909, made by the last legislature, en- I titled section 8-a, will be of much in-: terest te a large nnmber of people who i have to work more than they should, but who have hitherto been unable to get any relief, for varying reasons. i This paper has for years worked hard to secure a proper recognition by our various village boards of work done by the Power Houae employees, who are required to work every day in the year, and receive for their compensa¬ tion leai than is paid a printer or a bricklayer, with mucn more practical experience being required, arid with much more danger in the occupation. The laws provide as follows: Section 8-a. One day of rest in sev¬ en— (1) Every employer of labor en¬ gaged in carrying on any factory or mercuntile establishment in this state shall allow evety person, except those specified in subdivision two, employed in such factory or mercantile estab¬ lishment at least twenty four consecu¬ tive bjurs of rest in every seven con¬ secutive days. No employer shall op¬ erate nny such factory or mercantile establishment on Sunday unless he shull have complied with subdivision thr^e. Provided, however, that this section fihflll not authorize any work on Sunduy not now or hereafter auth¬ orized by law. 1. This flection shall not ajiply to (a) Janitors. (b) Watchmen (c) Employees whoSe duties include not more than three hours' work on Sunday in (1) Setting sponges in ba¬ keries; (2) Caring for live animals; (8) Maintaining fires; (4) Necessary repairs to boilers or machinery. (d) Superintendents or foremen in charge. 3. Before operating on Sunday, every employer shall post in a conspic¬ uous place on tbe premises a schedule containing a list of his employees who are required or allowed to work on Sundny nnd designating the day of rest for each, and shall file a copy of such schedule with the commissioner of labor. The employer shull prompt¬ ly file with the said'commiaaioner a copy of every change in such schedule. No employee shall be required or al¬ lowed to work on the day of rest bo designated for him. 4. Every employer shall keep a time book showing the names und ud dresses of all eraployees nnd the hours worked by ench of them in euch day, and such time book shall tre'-open to inspection by the commissioner of la¬ bor. " We wrote to the Secretary of State, Hon. Mitchell May, asking him for: particulars as to what was included in ' the word "factory" and received tbis reply, from the Commissioner of La¬ bor, to whom our letter was referred: ^ Gentlemen:— Responding to yoar inquiry of Sep-1 tember 30th, I enclose a copy of the [ Labor Law containing Section 8 a re- : luting to one day of rest in seven. This j is chapter 740 of the laws of 1913. '¦ You will note that the statute applies ' to factories and mercantile establish-; ments. Under the definition in the! law, as interpreted by the Attorney' General under date of September 29th, electric light and gas plants are fac | tories, but water works pumping sta- j tiona are not. Very truly yours, Wm. C. Rogers, Acting Commissioner. I The village board will have to bring this matter up for consideration, and may find that our interpretation of this law is not correct, so we would not : hold oat any particular hope of relief i to the employees at the Village Power ; House, but it is the earnest hope of thia newspaper that no way can be found of getting around this law. I No man is capable of doing the best j work, and giving the best service, ; who is compelled to work every day ¦ in the year and is not even given a ' vacation. When Capt. Hanse was President he did arrange that the men j might have one day off each two ] weeka, which was some little help, | but still makes them work about 501 days more each year than the reat of , us do, wilhout providing for over b| week's vacation.

Without in this column discussing the merits of the case, it wus the gen¬ eral opinion at the Court House at Mineola last Friday among those who had heard the arguments of the case againat ex-Judge Nerton thut the jury would either diaagree or acquit the de¬ fendant, and that the credit for the result belonged to George Morton Levy for the masterful manner in which the caae wus nrgued. It was agreed the defense wua weak, but the witnesses produced were of such charucter that a doubt of guilt was created in the minda of the jury strong enuf for tbem to bring in a verdict of not guilty. KEEP YOUR RECIPTS. Here'a a suggestion honest store¬ keepers will appreciute and I don't care whether or not tbe others do. Kesp your receipts nnd examine your; bills. A caae wus called to my atten¬ tion this week where a delivery clerk presented a bill, part of which had al¬ ready been paid. He was informed he had personally collected for part of the bill but insisted he hud not, until the receipt was shown him, when he apol ogized for the "mistake." No matter bow much you "think" ysu have paid ern the games this yeur. A meeting of the Dinner Commit¬ tee followed the bowling committee meeting, when A. Jumes Cronley wan elected chuirmun; J. J.

There seems to be some poaaibility, altho in view of paat aimilar "possibil¬ ities, " n remote one, of getting the village tax muddle clenred up.

At the adjourned nu* ting Tuesday afternoon the fullowirn coiDmunu'iition wus received from Werner Nygren, President of the Freeport Club: "Gentleiifien:— Some one has disfigured two of the trees on the club property, api'urently for the purpose of clearing a better wny for the power wires. As far us I can learn, no notice has been served requesting tbe club to hnve it done, or no permission askt to cut these trees. The losa is a considerable one, all the more us it is irreparable. Kindiv ex¬ plain hy return mail if this is nn aft of the village, its contractors ur lis em¬ ployes, and if so, what the village is going to do about it, before the club takes any action, fur recovering for this damage." The clerk was in<structrd to notify the club thut the village did not know anything about uny such dHniag.- hav¬ ing been djne. A conmiunicutiun was received from Freeport I.odgi- of Klks iisking for a tlat rate or the use of water at their clijb house.

RBs adjust to new rolesPosted by on November 28, 2012 – 10:21 pm
Having a different starting running back throughout this season has become commonplace for the Steelers with Isaac Redman getting five starts, Rashard Mendenhall four, and Jonathan Dwyer two. But all the while, Mendenhall was listed on the depth chart as the team's starter. Until this week, that is.
Coach Mike Tomlin mixed things up, naming Dwyer the starter and listing him first on the depth chart, while Redman is listed second and Mendenhall now third.
"That was their decision, what they wanted to do," said Dwyer, who was very low key about it. "I'm just trying to do my job. It's what they want to do and I am adjusting to it. I just want to help us win games. That is what it's all about. The fact that they want me to start is their decision, but I just want to do what I can to help us win games."
Dwyer is the Steelers leading rusher with 98 carries for 429 yards, averaging 4.4 yards per carry. Redman has 87 carries for 307 yards and two touchdowns, while Mendenhall, who has been injured part of the season, has 34 carries for 113 yards.
"That is how we are going to approach the week and I will just do whatever I am asked to," said Mendenhall. "I don't think too much of it. I have been in a lot of positions. I am just approaching this week like I approach every week."
Mendenhall said Tomlin talked to him about the change, but when asked what his reaction was or if he was surprised, he said he is just approaching it like he does every other week.
"I don't really react to too much of anything," said Mendenhall. "I just continue to prepare and I will be ready to play. For me I don't react. That is what is in front of me and that is how I am going to approach it.
"I just approach the week as it is. There is always opportunity and whatever happens from those is just what happens. I am just going to take advantage of whatever opportunities I get."
One thing that will be a focus for all of the backs this week is ball security, after each of them fumbled in the 20-14 loss to the Browns last week.
"We are going to work on it," said Dwyer. "It's going to be made an emphasis for us all week. We're going to get it done."
Don't look for the players to be carrying a football with them around the team's practice facility, instead the work will all be done on the field.
"We just have to get back to the fundamentals," said Mendenhall. "We saw on film where we were kind of lax in places. We have to approach this week like we are going to approach the game with our ball security."
Running back isn't the only position where there could be a shake-up this week as Mike Wallace is listed as the starting wide receiver as usual, but Emmanuel Sanders is listed as the starter at the spot as well. Wallace said it doesn't matter who starts on Sunday, he will be out there giving his all.
"I have to still do what I have to do, regardless of the situation," said Wallace. "If I am out there, I will give everything I've got. I am still going to be in the football game regardless of the situation.
"It's not going to change the way I prepare or anything I do. I am going to do everything the same."
Wallace, who had just one reception for nine yards against the Browns, admittedly has been frustrated by his production this season, but said it isn't from lack of effort.
"I have to prepare like I do," said Wallace. "I think I work hard every single day. I don't lag, I don't play at practice. I work hard every day."

My Profile
Guillaume Belmas
Microsoft Azure
I discovered the world of Microsoft in 2001: I was a student at an engineering college, which was not particularly geared towards Microsoft technologies, when I saw Visual Studio for the first time plus the very first beta version of the .NET framework in action. I plunged into it and have never left it since!
At that time, like now, the Internet and the communities have been one of the essential drivers helping me extend my skills with these development technologies. I was lucky enough to have a group of graduating colleagues who were also using .NET, and the way we helped each other and exchanged knowledge really was at the heart of how I learned. Everything we didn't know could be discovered on the Internet: newsgroups, forums, blogs and so forth. It's impressive - an absolute goldmine of knowledge available from your keyboard. The websites and blogs of the CodeS-Sources network in particular are where I first learned and then contributed in my turn. In addition, sharing and helping each other and discussing the various topics created opportunities to meet other technology aficionados at events such as DevDays in particular. Some of them later became work colleagues and some even became friends.
But it was from 2003 onwards, and 2004 in particular, that my involvement in the communities took a significant turn. At that time, I took part in what would nowadays generally be called a "hackathon": Unlimited Coding. Designed and held in France for the first time by Microsoft, "Unlimited Coding" was the first edition of the international competition now known as the Imagine Cup, which is being held for the 11
time right now. A weekend of non-stop coding in an exceptional setting - the best students from the biggest IT colleges: that was what the Imagine Cup started as. Having come second in 2003 and then first in 2004 with my team, I had the chance to go on to the world final and fly the flag for France in Brazil. And it was mission accomplished - we won the competition in July 2004!
It was an unforgettable experience: what I had seen in France was there in spades at the world final. Meeting so many brilliant people is really impressive, as well as being very exciting at the same time. When I got back, I told myself I should share this experience and should above all help students who wanted to take part in this adventure, so that they could also benefit from this unique experience. So I kept on blogging and I had the opportunity to facilitate technical conferences about .NET and Visual Studio, as well as the Imagine Cup. This competition became a lot more widely known and I did not hesitate for a second to go round various schools in the Paris region - and elsewhere in France as well - in order to make the maximum number of IT students aware of this opportunity. Since 2006, both Microsoft France and Microsoft Corp have given me an opportunity that is just as wild as the first one: being part of the team organising the Imagine Cup. Aside from the responsibilities and the personal commitment that involves, I was genuinely able to get more involved in the competition and help it progress. Moving to the judges' side is impressive and awe-inspiring: so many innovative projects and so much passion all together in one place - the Imagine Cup is the only place where you can see that! I'm still amazed by the innovation you can find in some of these projects today!
I'm involved in the Imagine Cup all year long: helping every team with its project (both at the technical level and in terms of the ideas themselves) requires stamina. The high points of the competition - such as the boot camp - are also an opportunity to give sessions on technical subjects to help their projects progress further more rapidly. The best reward is to see a project go from being a basic idea to becoming a funded project or even putting together a startup company in some cases!
In parallel with the Imagine Cup, my job as a consultant has let me discover exciting topics and technologies that I have put efforts into beyond my working time: .NET to start with, then Team Foundation Server and the Visual Studio ALM suite in 2005, and Microsoft Azure in 2008. Every time, I succumbed to the charms of the technology and its potential... and every time, I used the same logic: discover, learn and share. For all of this, I had the great privilege of being nominated as an MVP for these various technologies in turn since October 2004.
Being an MVP is not an end in itself. On the contrary, it is the beginning of even more intense and interesting collaboration with impassioned people and experts in their fields. Community spirit means that a very friendly and good-natured atmosphere prevails between the MVPs and everyone in this big family is ready to help everyone else.
The community of MVPs and the big gathering at the MVP Global Summit in particular is similar to the Imagine Cup: a large gathering of world-class enthusiasts and experts in their respective technologies! In addition to the exchanges between MVPs, being an MVP adds a completely different dimension to the exchanges between product groups. That point is probably the key thing that is important about the title for Microsoft: the exchanges are not mere courtesies - they are genuine constructive discussions about future aspects of a technology or a product. Over nine years, I have had the honour of taking part in several discussions that very much helped structure things for the product teams, and I was able to see the benefits of these exchanges in the later versions.
Enthusiasm, sharing and support for each other - that is what the MVP status is all about!

It was a game with several ups and downs and in the end, the Starkville 10-year old All-Stars found itself in a weird predicament.
Holding a 14-11 lead entering the seventh inning, a substitution error was called to the attention of the umpire.
Starkville head coach Randy Carlisle had pinch-hit for starter Jalen Bell with Jontavious Spearman. Spearman reached on a double in the top of the sixth. Payton Gregg pinch ran for Spearman.
Carlisle put Bell back in defensively in the bottom of the seventh. That substitution was ruled illegal and forced Starkville to get six outs in the inning.
After recording the first three outs and the inning starting over, Louisville scored four runs to win 15-14 in seven innings.
A 20-minute discussion took place on the field before the third out of the original inning was recorded and tournament officials were called upon to interpret the rule.
Starkville now plays the winner of West Point and Caledonia at 4 p.m. today in a loser's bracket game.
Starkville took an early 3-0 lead in the first inning highlighted by Garrett Lewis' RBI single.
Starkville added one more in the second, and Louisville answered with one of its own in the home half of the inning.
Starkville put some distance between itself and Louisville with a three-spot in the third making it 7-1.
Izak Hansen had a sacrifice fly in the inning.
Louisville added three runs in the fourth inning and busted out for seven in the fifth inning. Eric Gregory's two-run triple was the big blow. Louisville held an 11-7 lead heading the last inning.
Starkville did not bow out so easy. With two runners on, Lewis hit an RBI double to left field. Justin Rook followed him with a sacrifice fly and Tanner Graves had his own sacrifice fly to make it 11-10.
An infield single by Braden Carlisle gave Starkville hope with two outs. Spearman delivered a run scoring double to tie it up. That was all the home team could get in the frame.
A 5-unassisted-3 double play after an intentional walk sent the game to extra innings.
Braden Carlisle delivered with another infield single driving in two runs after an errant throw following him reaching first to make it 14-11 heading to the bottom of the seventh.
Louisville, which capitalized on the six outs and won the ballgame, is now in the driver's seat playing Columbus Nationals today at 1 p.m.

It won't strike readers as strange that we see a lot of cars throughout a typical year at Super Chevy. Now don't worry, we're not looking for sympathy here, as many of you out there would love to have our jobs. But after looking at so many cars, sometimes they start to blur together, and it takes something unusual or a particular wavelength tuned to our warped minds that gets us to notice something.
While walking the aisles at the 2010 Vegas Super Chevy Show, spying a flock of early second-generation Camaros parked together, each built in a different style, just sort of spoke to us. Basically the same car, done three different ways, in three of the most popular colors for a Camaro to be sprayed. Following our gut instincts, the cameras came out and our pens started scribbling. Here's what we found...
Fix It or sell it!
John Tsutsui - '70 RS/SS 396 Camaro
Sometimes when a project stalls, it takes a massive thunderclap to break it out of the quagmire of inactivity. Mechanic John Tsutsui found this Camaro in California, and brought it home for $3,600, despite not being totally in love with the car's looks. This was in 1989.
After a few years of tinkering on the F-body, John and his family moved to Utah, where the vehicle would sit untouched for about six years. Around the new millennium, John's wife delivered the ultimatum, "either fix it or sell it." Not wanting to part with the car, work started to get the '70 back into fighting trim.
Before taking residence in John's garage, the Camaro had seen a lengthy second life of drag racing. This meant non-racing items like the heater box, center console, and even the emergency brake parts were long gone. The engine and trans were out of the car when he bought it, but both had seen fresh rebuilds. Scouring the Southern California junkyards and Pomona swap meet, all the parts necessary for getting the car back on the street were found.
The original 350hp 396 car (only 1,864 built in the strike shortened 1970 model year) was resprayed in its factory Daytona Yellow hue, and rolls on original second-gen Rally wheels. In 2001 the Camaro emerged from its rebuild for the start of its third life, and lots of driving enjoyment.
It's a Rescue
Roger Bozarth - '71 Camaro
Are project cars like homeless animals? After seeing rough lives, we take them in, feed them parts, and give them cozy places to sleep in our garages, carports, and backyards. We make sure they get the attention they deserve, and enjoy their companionship. We just don't have to worry about them tearing up the couch or getting into the garbage.
Roger Bozarth rescued his F-body from project car hell after seeing an ad in a Lake Havasu City newspaper. The owner had started to build it, lost interest, and wanted it out of his garage. The asking price was $4,000, but Roger worked some haggling magic and got the '71 for $1,200.
The poor thing was in very rough condition and needed a lot of work. Undeterred, Roger and his son loaded the Camaro on a trailer and hauled it back home to Las Vegas where the two novices tore the car apart with no prior experience. Learning along the way, father and son put the '71 back together and took it to a painter who mucked up the car's finish. This sent Roger to Mike Martin at Super Stripes in Las Vegas to get the car resprayed properly in PPG Blue.
Under the hood, the car's original 350 sits between the subframe rails with an 0.030-inch overbore, 9:1 compression, Vortec cylinder heads, and Edelbrock 750-cfm carb. It breathes through Flowmaster mufflers and transfers power through a 2,500-stall torque converter and TH350 to the rear.

Enjoying the books so far. It's been a long time since I've been reading so frantically and continously.
However, can it be that there are some quite British things in them that are hard to understand?
The horrible little man for example. Is that some kind of shout the seargents give at recruits in the army? Doesn't sound too offensive in my foreigners ears.
What about this treacle stuff? What is it? Some kind of molasse? But what's the thing about the treacle mine? That doesn't make sense. Is it as silly as the Schmaltzberg fat mines?

NXTstep reader Michaël Ludmann asked us to remind our readers of the new Robosapien Robot. Robosapien is now compatible with the NXT brick, which fits inside Robosapien's backpack. Read about it
Thank you, Michaël!
I've seen this compatibility mentioned before, but I've yet to see anything like a description of what it means. Carrying an NXT brick is one thing (&, given its mass and change in the CoM of the robot as a whole, a fairly impressive thing). But interfacing it is quite another. Will it need custom firmware on the NXT? Can it still be programmed, and in what? How does it connect with Robosapian: sensor port? Motor port? USB (does that mean Robosapian can support a master USB port)? BlueTooth?
It sounds neat, but I've yet to see more than apparently hype. Do any of our readers have any concrete information on this?
Brian Davis
Yea, seriously this is the most useless piece of information posted. Some dude who loves Lego designed for NXT to fit into his robot. And???? Then what??? Tune in at 11 for full story??
To dmytro :
I'm not so sure it's so useless as you write it, because it's not a simple basic robot which had been made compatible with the Lego NXT. The company which created it is well known for its good quality robotic inventions specialized in toys, and you can be sure that it will bring support with enough documentation in the coming months (well, hum, at least, I hope so ;) ).
And without waiting for that, I can already think about the possibilities it enables : our lego robotic inventions will now be able to wirelessly (provided you have two NXT) control a little biped with camera vision enabled, able to play music and sound whenever and wherever you want it, without needing to use a lot of lego pieces and time if you don't have them. Morever you shouldn't forget that this robot already has lots of sensors integrated into it, which could really be interesting to control in addition to the lego ones.
Eventually, for those who loves robotics and already own both lego NXT and Robosapien Media, I believe that this compatibily isn't a so bad news.
No, in my opinion, the question isn't in its possible uselessness or in the interest of the posssibilities it's enables, but rather in how we'll do that, exactly as Brian Davis wrote. I wonder how the communication between the two devices will be possible. And that's why I'm waiting for some explainaitions provided by Wowwee... and I guess I'll try to buy one asap.
So, wait & see ? Or maybe somebody has already experimented that and would be able to provide us with good answers and solutions by sharing his own personnal experience?
More informations concerning the robot itself :
Thanks for the info! The second link gives pretty good idea about the robot, so we can draw at least some idea on it. Embeded linux and lots of RAM. Now that is powerfull!

On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when - or if - it will go away.
Dale Barbara, Iraq vet and now a short-order cook, finds himself teamed with a few intrepid citizens - town newspaper owner Julia Shumway, a physician's assistant at the hospital, a select-woman, and three brave kids. Against them stands Big Jim Rennie, a politician who will stop at nothing - even murder - to hold the reins of power, and his son, who is keeping a horrible secret in a dark pantry. But their main adversary is the Dome itself. Because time isn't just short. It's running out.
©2009 Stephen King; (P)2009 Simon & Schuster
"The scare is in the human nature under stress."
There have been so many really scary stories from King where the fear comes from the external environment. Great scares! This story studies that the real scare comes from within human nature. Under unreasonable, undeniable external stress, humans can act unnaturally scary. This story studies how a core of rotten characters added to a crew of extremely susceptiple folks; can twist a normal community into a terrifying place to be. And, isn't the most real of tangible of fears those that come from inside?
- Suzanne
"Glad I Listened to 11-22-63 First"
The first twenty one hours of this book had lots of moments that felt like listeners torture. It would have been deleted unfinished if I hadn't been so awed by 11-22-63. Fortunately, "Under the Dome" got a lot better in the final twelve hours.
Stephen King in his talk after the book finished (a great feature in both books) indicated that the book originally was larger and was shortened with input from a helper. Thank heavens for that --- because a longer version may have done me in.
More pages isn't always better. This book could have been shortened by about fifteen hours and become a very impressive story.
So, I Read This Book Today . . .
"Couldn't like it"
I hate to be derivative, but I agree with Pam Gearhart's review. There just is no "there" there. King has rarely disappointed me in the past and I have many of his books. Sadly, I just can't like this one.
King is known for his characters who feel like they are really here, that they are real people. I identify with so many of his characters. Roland Dechain, Pennywise the Clown (shudder!!!!), Delbert Grady in "The Shining". And I remember all the characters in "The Stand." However, with "Under the Dome" there just isn't that connection as there is with so many of the other King characters.
The book is terrifically long, over 1,000 pages. Normally, like with the Uncut Edition of The Stand (1472 pages), I am so deeply into the story that I am still disappointed when the book is over. In this case, I got about 200 pages into the book (with difficulty) and just fizzled out. I tried picking up again several times, thinking I was just in the wrong mood for the book, but I never could get through it. I just didn't care what happened to any of the characters. And if I can't care about the characters, I won't waste my time reading the book. Life is too short, there are too many books out there, to waste time on something I can't get into.
I know some people really love the book, which is understandable. But, thankfully, not everyone likes the same thing, and this is just my own opinion. Take it or leave it, I still love many of King's works.
Raul Esparza, however, does a great job as the narrator.
"Lenghtly but good, ending was rushed"
I really enjoyed this audiobook except where I feel the last segment (5 parts) was rushed and the ending was a bit disappointing. Not my typical Stephen King ending. The narrator is very good as he has the voice of many many characters. This is another thing you may need to know.. many many characters here. Overall a very interesting listen. Approximately 54 hours I believe. Well worth your money. It took me about 2 weeks to get the whole book through and with me taking every day to see what happens next. I took this week me to the pool and just sit and relaxed.
Fabulous! Intense! Mind Blowing! I am not a regular Stephen King reader, but I am going to start now. The book was EVERYTHING I hoped it would be. I DID NOT WANT IT TO END!
"No Stand"
"Under the Dome" is being compared to King's earlier and greater work, "The Stand." "Dome" is entertaining, and I give it 3 points mostly for King-isms such as "Nothing runs like a Deere." (Of course the narrator deserves some credit for the delivery too.)
It's no "Stand," however. The big difference is that King devotes the entire work of the "Dome" to the subject covered in about 1/6 of "The Stand" - that is, the destruction of the world he's writing about. "The Stand" deals with that and then moves swiftly on to the part which I personally found more interesting; would it be possible to reconstruct society after the loss of so many people? That King had to use the hand-wavium of supernatural events to pull the protagonists together into one location shows that Stewart's "Earth Abides" describes the likelier outcome of such a catastrophe, but in "The Stand," King manages to pull off a fairly exciting work on the subject. In "Dome," however, King becomes one of those kids burning ants under a magnifying lens that he talks about in the book; he creates characters - some really evil bad guys and some weak and ineffectual good guys - then he spends the rest of the book watching them jump through hoops while everything goes crashing down around them.
If you thought the best part of "The Stand" was part 1, you'll enjoy "Under the Dome." If you're a hard core SF buff and would like a more character-driven and more scientifically interesting look at this notion of what would happen if you were cut off from the rest of the universe, I highly recommend Robert Charles Wilson's "Spin" instead.
I think this was the best King book since the last Dark Tower. The idea for this book is so interesting! I love the story so much that I've listened to it twice!!
"a must listen"
I was mesmerized within the first five minutes. Another great King novel with a complex cast. I didn't think anything could even come close to The Stand, but this one does! I hated to turn it off. I definitely fell in love with the characters, laughed, cried and waited with baited breath to see how it would end.
"Solid Stephen King Effort"
King puts normal people into extraordinary circumstances and we all get to find out what happens. As usual, he develops his characters well, and you do not come across a character 20 hours into the story wondering who it is. The story immediately draws you in, and I know I never lost the thread through the entire 35 hours. To me, this is probably the most important consideration when evaluating a story. This was a great 35 hours.
This is not a feel-good story. King's stories rarely are. He does not tell the story you want to hear, he tells the story the way it happens. I usually leave a Stephen King story wondering why this character or that one had to die, or why a story line went one way or another, because something bad happens to someone for no perceptible reason. King gets you to love a character, or at least like one, then do something bad to it. This story is no exception, but I have come to understand that this is almost necessary to a good story. Good things have no perspective when there is nothing bad to compare them to.
This is no secret, but Stephen King is a diehard left-winger. His lack of regard for anyone to the right side of the political spectrum comes though loudly in many of this story's villains, but does not detract from the story the way it does in some of John Grisham's books.
In the end, this was an excellent listen. The narration was commendable. I do not think the story was a good as Duma Key, but it was unquestionably worth the credit, and, more importantly, the 35 hours of my life listening to it. The measure of what makes an audio book truly great (to me) is whether I plan on listening to it again, so I cannot call this one great. I will not be listening to this story again, but there are few stories that meet this standard.
"Very Engaging"
One of the most engaging works of contemporary fiction I've read/listened to. I cared deeply about many of the characters and wanted to strangle some of the others.
The narrator was outstanding as well.

So it looks as though Republicans are going to cave on the extension of the payroll tax cut, pretty much the only tax cut they don't like, seeing as it doesn't do much for the wealthy. But on their way to that capitulation, they made sure they could exact a price: drug testing of people applying for unemployment compensation! After all, we need to send these people a message.
The bill, which looks like it will pass soon, now includes a provision that allows states to drug test anyone applying for unemployment compensation if they're looking for a job in an industry where testing occurs, which is pretty much any industry there is. So it isn't enough that you might get tested before you can get a job, you'll now have to get tested before you even start looking. The rationale Republicans offer isn't that there's some kind of epidemic of drug abuse among the unemployed. It's just if you're going to get a government benefit, paid for by the taxpayers, then you should have to prove you haven't taken a puff on a joint in the last month. If there's some humiliation involved, so much the better. The lucky duckies who have chosen to lose their jobs need to understand that the rest of us hold them in contempt, in the hopes that they'll get off their lazy duffs and start contributing again.
But why stop at people on unemployment? After all, I don't want my tax dollars going to anyone who might possibly be on drugs. So let's make the board of directors and senior executives of every company that has a government contract pee into a cup (those folks at Lockheed Martin get an awful lot of our money, after all). And how about hedge fund managers—they benefit from the preferential "carried interest" loophole, meaning they pay Romneyesque low tax rates on their income. Unzip and give us a sample before you head to the Hamptons for the weekend, buddy. I'm sure we won't find any cocaine use among that crowd! And what about the mortgage interest deduction? We the taxpayers pay a portion of tens of millions of people's mortgages. I can't stand the idea that some of those people might be on drugs, so they better get tested, too. As Mitt Romney says, "People who are receiving ... government benefits, we should make sure they're not using those benefits to pay for drugs."
Demanding drug tests from government contractors or people who take advantage of tax deductions would be crazy, of course. On the other hand, testing people on welfare or people who are unemployed makes perfect sense. Why? Because they're poor.
Republicans get dreadfully offended if anyone proposes increasing taxes on the wealthy. The very suggestion is ghastly "class warfare," and it tears the nation apart. But this is what real class warfare looks like. This is how people with power tell people without power that they're nothing, that in order to access even the most modest help they'll have to submit to a ritual of abasement, treated like criminals and forced to hand over their bodily fluids.
And let's be clear—drug testing people on unemployment doesn't save any money, or reduce drug use, or solve any practical problem. But it does what it's intended to do: Put those people in their place. So Republicans may not have gotten everything they wanted out of this bill, but at least they got the chance to stick it to some of the people they hate.

They forgot to mention that a single urine drug test is charged out at $650 here in CA. This is a boon for drug testing companies, not all of which are ethical, and a boondoggle for states. Who's going to pay for all these drug tests? And do you have to get tested every time you pick up your check? I would imagine that a good civil liberties lawyer could make hash out of this requirement.
Wed, 2012-04-04 04:47
" And let's be clear—drug testing people on unemployment doesn't save any money, or reduce drug use, or solve any practical problem. "
Really? Wouldn't a drug user on unemployment with a positive test result be refused benefits, which are paid for by Americans? Doesn't that save real money?
Doesn't it tend to reduce drug use by people on the dole? Doesn't it teach people the way forward - and show them that drug use is not rewarded in our society, that it fact it hurts your chances of getting a job - or free government handouts? Huge disconnect with reality here. Doesn't fly.
State of Reason

That's nice in theory but it just doesn't work out. A perfect example is a Florida law that passed a year or two ago that forced people to pass a drug test to get benefits like Welfare or food stamps. The bill was sold as an effort to save money by not paying benefits to people on drugs. It made people seeking benefits pay for their own drug test and if they passed the state would reimburse them.
According to this article:
Because the Florida law requires that applicants who pass the test be reimbursed for the cost, an average of $30, the cost to the state was $118,140. This is more than would have been paid out in benefits to the people who failed the test, Mr. Newton said.
As a result, the testing cost the government an extra $45,780, he said.
In other words, the state spent more on drug testing than they saved in unpaid benefits.

I look forward to the day when people are judged by the content of their character rather than the content of their urine. I also hold great hope that there will come a time when it is not considered "progressive" to use the force (violence) of the state to extract property of one individual so that it may be given to another.
Tue, 2012-05-15 17:29
A component in this class warfare is the Workforce Investment Act - which actually creates and funds a subordinate class of citizen (the worker).
People who are poor have little or no choice as the where they live, who they work for. Indeed because of the WIA and other such laws people have to work for poverty wages and abusive employers.
By the US Constitution preclusion of involuntary servitude should prevent this but politician put their party loyalties above the Constitution and citizenship - remember that employment is servitude.

It's starting to seem as though Londoners don't know how to take care of their luxury vehicles. The owner of $500,000 Lamborghini Aventador was involved in a pricey pileup in one of the city's poshest neighborhoods. In a video of the crash, captured by a bystander, the driver careens through the streets and smashes into a parked BMW and an oncoming Mazda sedan.
The souped-up sports car has a reputation. Londoners have previously seen it with flames shooting out of its trunk, but this time the car was "reduced to a sorry state" and suffered major damage. No matter, though! "The owner seemed young and was with a group of friends after the crash who all seemed relaxed bearing in mind the wreckage on the road," a witness said. --Jordan Valinsky
Tunisian President Beji Caid Essebsi declared a state of emergency in Tunisia on Saturday, the state news agency reports. In June, a gunman killed 38 foreigners and injured 39 others in a beachside terrorist attack. Security officers killed the gunman after the attack had stopped.
It's the second terrorist attack Tunisia has seen in three months, The New York Times reports. The state of emergency allows Essebsi to authorize military operations in Tunisia's own cities. Julie Kliegman
Eight-time defending champion Joey Chestnut met his match Saturday in Matt "Megatoad" Stonie, who won Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest on Coney Island. Stonie downed 62 dogs and buns in 10 minutes, two ahead of Chestnut.
"I trained hard for this, and I came prepared," Stonie said.
Chestnut still has claim to the contest record, though, since he polished off 69 dogs in 2013 — good news for those of you who worried the man famous for binge-eating fast food might've lost his dignity with his defeat. Julie Kliegman
The legal pot market began in Washington on July 8, 2014, and just one year later, it's making bank. The state's 160 stores earn $1.4 million per day. Between state and local governments, pot sales have rolled in about $70 million in taxes, The Associated Press reports.
Business might be good, but all those taxes — on top of federal ones — hurt growers.
"I'm basically doing this for free," James Lathrop, who owns Seattle's first legal shop, told AP. "Nobody's gone out of business, but I'm not driving a new truck either."
So next time you're in Washington, maybe you should think about kicking back with some weed — you know, just for the sake of supporting small business. Julie Kliegman
Donald Trump took to Fox & Friends to defend the comments on Mexican immigrants that landed him in hot water this week with companies like NBC, Macy's, and most recently NASCAR.
"The crime is raging and it's violent. And if you talk about it, it's racist," he said, referring to accusations against his presidential campaign kickoff that many Mexican immigrants are rapists and drug users.
Trump admitted he didn't realize the backlash would be quite so severe, calling himself a "whipping post." Watch the full interview here. Julie Kliegman
NASCAR joined a long list of companies cutting ties with billionaire and Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump following his controversial remarks last month about Mexican people. The auto racing governing body will not hold its Xfinity and Camping World Truck series banquets at the Trump National Doral Miami as originally planned, USA Today reports.
"Our company will not stand to support any person or organization that associates with such beliefs and we feel strongly about distancing ourselves from any negative and discriminatory comments made against any gender, ethnicity, age group or so forth," said Camping World CEO Marcus Lemonis, who vowed to not attend the awards if held at Trump's hotel. "I would hope that the entire NASCAR organization would agree with my sentiments."
In his campaign kickoff, Trump classified most Mexicans immigrating to the U.S. as rapists and drug users. NASCAR joins companies like NBC Universal, Univision, and Macy's in denouncing the comments. Julie Kliegman
A Florida judge had one unusual question for the burglary suspect in her bond court: Did you go to middle school with me?
Arthur Booth, 49, was arrested in Hialeah on charges of burglary, grand theft, fleeing, and resisting arrest, NBC 6 South Florida reports. Judge and former middle school classmate Mindy Glazer's question shocked him. He immediately teared up, held his head, and repeated "Oh my goodness."
Glazer had some encouraging words for the man she called "the nicest kid in middle school."
"Good luck to you sir," she said. "I hope you are able to come out of this OK and just lead a lawful life."
Watch the full encounter below. Julie Kliegman
JetBlue ran its first official direct flight from New York City's John F. Kennedy Airport to Havana's José Martí International Airport on Friday, the first in a planned series of weekly charter flights.
It's the first major airline to do so, though smaller outfit Sun Country was the first to start servicing the two cities, Time reports.
JetBlue also runs flights to Cuba from Florida cities following the easing of travel restrictions earlier this year as the two nations work to restore diplomatic ties after half a century without relations. Julie Kliegman

I'm going to try & see Elysium this week. I hope it's a belter. It's the same guy that directed District 9 which I thought was one of the best sci-fi's of recent years.

New For 2013The Traverse gets an exterior refresh and debuts the new face of Chevy crossovers. It's not groundbreaking, but the new look is handsome, if a bit bland. Inside, changes include a revised center stack, fully adjustable headrests, an eight-way passenger seat, upgraded materials, and chrome accents. The Traverse gets an industry-first front center air bag designed to protection front occupants during a side collision.
OverviewIn size and capability, the Traverse bridges the gap between the Tahoe and the Equinox. It has a standard split-folding third row—only suitable for children or small adults—and, when fitted with the second-row bench, can seat up to eight people. In terms of capability, it can't tow as much as larger body-on-frame SUVs like the Tahoe or the Suburban, but for most people, the more-fuel-efficient Traverse is the better bet. It is available with the same amenities as those big SUVs, such as a power liftgate, a rearview camera, a Bose stereo, and navigation, plus it can be similarly dressed up with optional eighteen- or twenty-inch wheels or chrome dual-exhaust pipes. The dual exhaust has the added benefit of increasing the output of the 3.6-liter V-6 to 288 hp and 270 lb-ft of torque. The Traverse's cabin has the same dual-cockpit layout as in the smaller Equinox, with a sweeping dash, rich color choices, and cool blue accent lighting. Its siblings, the GMC Acadia and the Buick Enclave, are trimmed in nicer materials and have more stylized exteriors, but the Traverse undercuts the prices of those vehicles by thousands of dollars with comparable standard equipment. Even when compared with fresher competitors such as the Ford Explorer or the Honda Pilot, the Traverse holds up well in terms of style, quality, and value.
SafetyFront, front center, side, and side curtain air bags are standard, as are ABS, traction and stability control, and a tire-pressure monitoring system. OnStar is standard and alerts first responders when a crash occurs. A backup camera and front and rear parking sensors are optional.
