|Sorry if I hurt feelings of some people but some of the designs for the secondary characters are really atrocious. Psycho-Pass designs were much better even they were shoujo manga-like too.

There's always an "Earth Federation".
...or "Earth Alliance". It looks like they can't decide.

If you're going to rip off Gundam you always need an Earth Federation and a fancy pants Zeon stand in.

I hope the story makes a difference. A war between Earth and Mars settlers almost reminds me of Nadesco and of course Gundam.
I think little funny, "Earth Alliance" being used as name is kinda of a throw back to Babylon 5. Mars was in rebellion too.....
I don't know if the show was popular in Japan or not.

A Martian colony rebelling against Earth is a sci-fi chestnut, isn't it?

Montenegro ready for versatile co-op with Azerbaijan
19 April 2014 [09:00] -
"Montenegro is interested in developing relations with Azerbaijan in various spheres of economy, in particular in the field of investment making," chairman of the Montenegrin Parliament, OSCE PA president Ranko Krivokapic said at a meeting with Azerbaijani Minister of Economy and Industry Shahin Mustafayev.
Krivokapic praised Azerbaijan`s development.
Minister Mustafayev stressed the importance of mutual visits in terms of enhancing cooperation between the two countries.
"An Azerbaijani delegation visited Montenegro in March 2014. The first meeting of the joint intergovernmental commission on economic cooperation, meetings and a business forum were held there."
"Excellent bilateral political relations and the potential of the two countries create favorable conditions for the expansion of economic cooperation," the minister said.
"The memorandum of understanding on the Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) project, signed last year is an excellent opportunity for cooperation between Azerbaijan and Montenegro in the energy sector," Mustafayev said. "At this stage, several investment projects are being considered. Their successful implementation will serve the development of relations between the two countries. There is wide potential for expanding the cooperation in the fields of agriculture, tourism, infrastructure and investment making."
On the Armenia-Azerbaijan Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, Mustafayev stressed that as a result of Armenia's aggressive policy 20 percent of Azerbaijani lands were occupied.
"Our compatriots became refugees and IDPs," he said. The minister regretted that there were double standards in the West`s approach to the conflict.
"Representatives of Armenia and the fictional regime get visas for trips to Europe. The opportunities are being created for their making statements from the international platforms."
Mustafayev said the international community must demonstrate a principled position on the Armenia-Azerbaijan Nagorno-Karabakh conflict based on international law.

The weekly hip-hop night's resident DJs Pickster One and Element will be joined by a killer crew of guests during the celebration (going down at Club Red, 2155 East University Drive in Tempe), including former Blunt turntablist Mr. Hyder and Cali-based DJ/producer Flying Lotus (a.k.a. "FlyLo"), as well as L.A. rapper Myka 9 and the members of the Drunken Immortals. A second room of off-the-chain entertainment is hosted by hip-hop artists Ekoe and Mic Cause, with drum 'n' bass and dubstep from Terra, Nappe, Issa, and Ame. The celebration starts at 9 p.m. with a $12 cover. Visit www.myspace.com/bluntclub.

The breathtaking designs will range from retro and fussy to modern and simple, with everything in between, at the Iconic Wedding Dress Exhibition.

Darcey Bussell's sweet and retro 1990s dress features a tiny nipped in waist, button-down back, a super-high neckline and sleeve frills, while Gabby Logan's choice was simple and elegant.

MTA New York City Transit (MTA) purchased 90 Nova LFS articulated vehicles, to be assembled in Nova Bus' newest plant located in Plattsburgh, N.Y., with delivery slated for the first half of 2010.
The order follows a successful six-week in-revenue service run of a Nova LFS Artic bus on the Bx12 route in the Bronx and the M15 route in Manhattan.
The Nova LFS Artic features a stainless steel structure; a particulate filter that reduces emissions; a time-tested front door access ramp for mobility impaired passengers; a re-designed driver area; and wide mid and rear doors, triggered by motion sensors once the bus has come to a full stop.
Of the 20 people injured, none were considered serious and 13 were transported by New York City EMS to hospitals.
Riders using a desktop computer, smart phone device or traditional telephone can schedule their pick-up and desired drop-off locations: reducing their wait time, arriving at their destination faster, and increasing the overall rider experience.
The advanced Driver Assist System, utilizing a licensed GPS technology developed by the University of Minnesota, provides feedback to the driver regarding lane position – via graphic driver alert displays, virtual mirror, vibrating seat and actuated steering.
In an overall business review, it was determined this division no longer fit in ABC's overall growth strategy. The company will continue to provide parts and warranty support for Ameritrans products.
Planners estimate the new, 11-mile Tysons Corner to Alexandria bus system would attract about 8,600 new transit riders per day.

Wanted: battalions
April 26, 1986. We were all looking down our noses at the Soviet Union as Chernobyl's radioactive plume billowed over Europe and forced evacuation in parts of Belarus, Ukraine and Russia.
We knew that only within the Iron Curtain could such a catastrophe be brought on by technological malpractice and bureaucratic indifference.
June 17, 2010. Estimates suggest that somewhere in the order of 80 million gallons of oil has billowed into the Gulf of Mexico since April 20.
That's a lot of oil, and the damage it will inflict on natural resources in the gulf and perhaps beyond may someday evoke comparisons with Chernobyl.
Unless, of course, we clean up the mess quickly and thoroughly.
Napoleon observed that "God is on the side of the big battalions," but that lesson has yet to be reflected in the cleanup effort. There are far too many photos of individuals and small groups, on beaches or marshes, seemingly toiling in isolation. Here and there we find the odd vessel or cluster of boats working along the horizon.
This is the biggest oil spill and potentially the most devastating manmade environmental disaster in history; we need cleanup crews reminiscent of the hordes of Ghengis Khan.
Perhaps the fact that we do not simply reflects the growing pains of a nascent mission. I am hopeful things will change in the days and weeks ahead, and that we'll see a force worthy of an invasion turned loose.
This is an awful mess, but it is quantifiable, and it is helpful to think of it that way. For example, as considerable an amount as 80 million gallons is, Maine's Sebago Lake, which has a surface area of 45 square miles, holds almost a trillion gallons, according to the local water authority. In other words, if Sebago were a tank, it would hold more than 12,500 times what has spilled so far — or what the Deepwater Horizon well would leak if uncontained for 2,000 years.
I don't mean to minimize the spill or understate the challenge implicit in cleaning it up, but to make the point that we can reckon with it if we remain committed to doing so with all the effort we can muster, until we are done.
There can be no, "We're doing all we can but at some point we will have to let nature take its course."
There can be no, "This, too, shall pass."
—Jerry Fraser

Ashalon based on 0 ratings. 3 reviews.
Bobby Lee is a normal 12 year old boy – until his mother dies. As the eldest sibling, he takes the brunt of the chores, as well as helping his brother and sister through their grief. His father is an undemonstrative man, struggling with his own grief, but does appreciate his eldest son and rewards him with a much coveted Macbook on Bobby Lee's 12th birthday. Bobby Lee begins to suffer a series of extreme headaches, and he starts to change. He is stronger, animals avoid him, and his eyes glow a light blue – until he drinks water and returns to normal. But it keeps happening, and each time he has more and more new qualities. His schoolwork is suddenly easy, he can levitate, send out pulses of energy and even teleport himself. He uses his new abilities to transport himself to Greece (via the Pacific Ocean, for some reason) and barely makes it. Once there he explores the ancient ruins that have fascinated him for years, then travels across the Aegean. He disappears in a flash of light along the way and reappears in an enormous cavern which the reader knows to be near the centre of the earth, and learns who he really is – Ashalon, the descendent of a being not of this earth, and the last of his species. He has a mission – to learn the details of his heritage and to pass his knowledge on the human race to help them in their exploration of space. But that isn't enough for Bobby Lee/Ashalon, and he gives himself another mandate – to use his abilities to save as many lives as possible from natural disasters. His activities don't go unnoticed, however. There are many species out there, and Ashalon's ancestor broke their laws by interfering in Earth's development. Unknowingly, Bobby Lee may have instigated an interstellar war. 'Ashalon' has a touching and bittersweet start with likeable characters and a good portrait of Bobby Lee's family life. I especially liked the father – he gets some things right and some wrong, his character is well-rounded and somehow very real. Fans of Superman will love 'Ashalon'. Imaginative and creative, Rob Ussery tells a gripping story that builds suspense as Bobby Lee is hunted. His action scenes are exciting and well written, and he casts a spell on his readers making the novel hard to put down.
First Impressions – cover. The cover is fairly professional looking and very obviously makes the SF genre clear while equally obviously being a portrait of the main character-so having been made specifically for this book. Thumbs up all around in that respect, even though I can't say I actually like it. Had I not received the book free for review and therefore felt obliged to finish it, the prelude would have immediately prevented me from buying it. It narrates - in listless, emotionless, corporate language – how an alien of an advanced civilisation arrived on earth, set things up so his distant descendant would have a nice superhero base and helpful AI to come home to, and then killed himself & blew up his spaceship so as to leave no trace. I can't decide whether we're supposed to feel sad about this or not. I did, however, feel vaguely intrigued to find out how that plan would work out for him. Once the prologue finished, the dull, colourless language ceased for a while and while we met Ashalon and his human family the narrative voice livened up, the prose changed to include more colour, detail and pace, and I was almost convinced that the prologue had been an unfortunate fluke. I settled down to read what was beginning to look like an alternative Superman story – farm boy discovers he's an alien with cool powers and sets out to save the world. I liked the fact that out hero had a family with its own problems, a father who was a decent man struggling to make a living, and siblings with their own lives, and I was interested to see how having these powers would make things different at Bobby Lee's school. Which is not to say I thought everything was perfect. I'm not sure if the author can get away with "their family is so poor, but Ashalon gets a Macbook and an Ipod for his birthday and goes to a private school". But I was willing to overlook that in the light of the fact that things had suddenly become enjoyable. I was even intrigued when some people from a different alien civilisation turned up and began to investigate the sudden appearance of this superpowered individual. That seemed like an unexpected and interesting plot twist. But then most of the things I had been liking were taken away. Ashalon's family conveniently died. (Conveniently so they won't get in the way of his self-actualisation.) Thus robbing the story of any kind of human perspective. Simultaneously, the focus of the story shifted onto the politics of the aliens who are coming to kill him. With the shift in focus, the settings became nebulous, the writing descended into 'tell, don't show', with chapters full of info-dumps about the alien culture, which informed us of a lot of world-building and politics but never brought it to life. And the style devolved once more into something more suitable for a presentation on the value of life insurance. At this point we were told that some of the aliens were oppressing some of the other aliens by (gasp) not letting them have the best jobs! Oh, and some of the aliens in the military caste were oppressing some of the aliens in lower castes by assuming they would want to sleep with them. This kind of oppression, which as a woman I take to be the normal operation of our current society, was somehow presented as so intolerable it justified full scale rebellion, and Ashalon was drafted in by the rebels to overthrow the oppressive Empress and create a democracy. As you may be able to tell from my tone, by this point I'd stopped caring. I think if the author had chosen to show us the alien world – show us a scene, for example, of a lower caste woman being menaced by higher caste soldiers, how it felt, what they smelled like, where it took place, how she got away, how long it took her to get over it afterwards, how her hands shook and her work suffered because the grease from the instrument panel/the receptors in the computer etc whatever couldn't tell what she was trying to get them to do... Or if he'd shown us a scene of a lower caste person being denied healing factor for their dying spouse – how bright the blood was that bubbled up from her lips, how the higher ups shrank from the uncleanness of it, how he screamed and beat on their door and pleaded, and they smiled as they denied him etc... If the author had brought the SF scenes to life as he managed to do with the scenes of Bobby Lee and his father, then perhaps I might have cared about these people and their troubles. But he wrote them as if they were a history essay, stripping out any excitement and drama by robbing us of any human contact with any of these people. A classic case of why the writing advice "show, don't tell," became such a mantra. Rating – 2 stars. There is definite potential here in the scenes where the writer seems to be writing about the things he knows about. He just needs to make his SF settings and characters as solid and realistic as he does his home farm scenes.

Thank you for taking the time to write up your review!
Squaw Valley is one of our favorite ski resorts in the Lake Tahoe region. They consistently have good snow, and their grooming is top-notch. Back country bowls are excellent, as well, especially in good snow years. Terrain is excellent and geared toward intermediate, advanced, and expert skiers.

Squaw Valley ski area is very nice, well maintained, upscale facilities. All the areas were well maintained, friendly, helpful people to serve us everywhere we went.
Thank you for visiting us this spring and for taking the time to write a review! We hope to see you again soon.
Stopped by for an afternoon. People still skiing on the higher slopes but closing May 30. Still shopping and restaurants are open. Crowds have thinned except for the die hard skier. Tried to get up to the mountain restaurant but it was only minimally operating and was 39/person just to take the tram to the restaurant. I had to pass...
Thanks for joining us this spring, Ranishi! If you'd like to take the Tram to the top of the mountain, a great way to save is purchasing 24 hours in advance - you can save up to $10. Once you reach the top there are activities including swimming, hiking, lawn games, geocaching, disc golf and roller skating! We hope to...
Squaw and alpine are the best in the west. Of course the sierras have variable snow. When it's on there is better place to be. Terrain for experts is ridiculously awesome. Also plenty of beginner family friendly spots!
The trails are still open and so it was a delight to see skiers and boarders still going down the slope. The village has all kinds of shops and restaurants to enjoy. They have a fireplace going to keep the chills out. The place is beautiful and I fully understand why it was chosen as an Olympic site. I'm sure...
Loved it. A lot of tracks for all levels, the huge gondola takes you to the area dedicated to the Olympics that is nice to visit. They have night ski until May! Which is always a good plus.
Been skiing squaw for years. Great mountain in the past, but this year was terrible. Due to over-promotion, the mountain and parking lot are extremely crowded all the time. Despite the $120+ per day lift ticket price, much of the terrain/lifts are never open. Lame excuses are offered by the staff. Lines are even worse because so often not enough...
I went to Squaw Valley to learn to Ski. I can honestly say that I was skiing within an hour. These guys are AMAZING!

Hello Guys!
Im really new to staying in Ski resorts that really come alive during winter season. Im from the Philippines and we dont have Snow here, but weve got lots of Slurpee from 7-Eleven! Kidding aside, what can you guys tell me about spending a great holiday with family in the first week of April this year? How can we subtropical dwellers can make the most out of a vacation in Squaw valley in particular and in Lake Tahoe in General?
Thanks guys!
Note: We are staying at RWSV for 6 days and we have to maximize our stay- at least- for the entire lake tahoe area.
Is there somewhere to rent snow gear for kids? I'm looking for snow bibs, jackets, gloves, boots, and everything else that goes along with skiing.
hi I am coming to the US from the UK to visit a friend and we plan to go to Lake tahoe (closest place is Squaw Valley) to do some boarding. Will there be good enough runs to enjoy 2 days of boarding? im intermediate so i do not need hardcore black runs etc. just an open resort with decent runs to last 2 days.

Vegetable Soup
Total Time
Prep 30 mins
Cook 3 hrs 30 mins
I found this recipe a few years ago in New Orleans. Everyone who has ever tasted this soup say it's the best they have ever tried. You can omit the chicken and use vegetable broth instead to make it vegetarian and it's just as good. This makes alot of soup...you will need at least a 10 qt. pot. Freezes well.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 large white onion, coarsley chopped
- 3 stalks celery, coarsley chopped
- 8 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs, 1/2 inch dice (or bnls sknls chicken breasts)
- 6 (14 1/2 ounce) cans low sodium chicken broth (or 12 cups homemade)
- 1⁄2 lb carrot, rough chop
- 1⁄2 lb mushroom, sliced
- 8 green onions, chopped
- 2 large red potatoes, large dice
- 1⁄2 small cabbage, shredded
- 2 small zucchini, diced
- 2 small yellow squash, diced
- 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
- 1 cup frozen corn kernels
- 1 small turnip, diced
- 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach
- 1 cup broccoli floret (fresh or frozen)
- 1⁄2 cup sherry wine or 1⁄2 cup dry white wine
- 1⁄2 teaspoon dried sweet basil leaves
- 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 1⁄2 cup picante sauce (not salsa!)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 3 teaspoons salt
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Kitchen Bouquet (for color)
- Heat olive oil over medium heat.
- Saute onion, celery, garlic and chicken until chicken is browned and vegetables are soft.
- Add chicken broth and vegetables stirring after each addition.
- Simmer for 30 minutes.
- Add remaining ingredients and simmer over low heat for at least 3 hours.
- Note: If you prefer, add 2 cups of cooked Orzo pasta 5 minutes before serving.
Most Helpful
Excellent soup. Very good homemade taste. The longer this cooks the better. Cook at least 3 hours (longer if possible). This makes a lot of soup and could easily server 8 - 10. I will save this one and make it again.
Oh ChefAndy......this was a delicious vegetable soup! My daughter was feeling under the weather with a bad head cold and I made your recipe to help "heal" her! You are absolutely right, it is the best I have ever tried! Thank you for a wonderful recipe!

Wer einen Einstieg in MeteorJS sucht, und noch NIE mit NodeJS, MeteorJS, oder JavaScript an sich gearbeitet hat, der kriegt einen rudimentären Überblick über MeteorJS mit dem er noch nicht viel anfangen kann.
Weder die Entstehungsgeschichte, noch eine Zusammenfassung der NodeJS Bewegung sind vorhanden. Alle hier gefundenen Informationen können so, bzw. sogar noch sehr viel weitreichender in den allgemeinen Dokumentationen zu MeteorJS gefunden werden.
Ein tiefer Einblick in das Framework, die Denkweisen, die Erstellung von Packages, oder irgendwelche architektonischen Tipps zu einer größeren Applikation vermisst man leider stark. Zwar gibt es eine grobe Beschreibung, welche Verzeichnisse es geben kann, aber dieser Aufbau wird nicht klar deutlich, und stellt die tatsächliche Sachlage sogar etwas falsch dar.
Hinzu kommt die dem Autor etwas eigene Art "cool" zu wirken. Viel zu oft werden lächerliche Witze oder Kommentare gemacht, die den professionellen Fluss des Buches sehr stören. Es ist fast schon wie ein Schlag ins Gesicht, neben dem Aufbau einer Applikation immer wieder blöde Witze zu lesen. Hätte man diese weggelassen, wäre das Buch sogar noch viel schlanker, als es jetzt schon ist.
Leider gänzlich ungeeignet als Buch mit dem man arbeiten möchte.
Zudem ist man dann auf dem neuesten Stand. Die Api ändert sich, da Beta-Status noch immer.
Die hilfreichsten Kundenrezensionen auf Amazon.com (beta)
The book itself offers an exceptional introduction to Meteor, while not overloading you with too much information. Being a Node.js n00b, with practically zero MongoDB experience, I was a bit nervous as to how well I would be able to work with the book, but not only has it been very manageable to work through, I am learning tons. The meteor docs at [...] are great, and can really help explain some of the more abstract topics thoroughly. Personally I had found the docs a little too explicit, and was having a tough time drafting an application of my own from scratch, so having this book as a companion to the process of learning the ins and outs of this exceptional framework has been indispensable.
The book is based on meteor 0.5.0. At the time of this review I am working with 0.5.4, and have not encountered any issues with compatibility - yet. Still have 2 1/2 chapters to go. The book is 7 chapters long. Having bought the book last night, I must say the pace is fast, and I am blowing through the examples. I plan to be done tonight, so under 24 hours from cover to cover. Pretty amazing.
If you are interested in gaining a firmer grasp on Meteor.js, this book is the best, if not the only, excellent resource that will take you through all of the steps of getting up and running from scratch. I can already tell that Meteor will be my go-to framework for rapid prototyping of ideas and concepts on evenings and weekends.
One final note, Meteor is only officially supported on *nix systems, aka OSX or Ubuntu. There is an unofficial Windows port, so if you know what you are doing you could give that a try, otherwise you will have to wait to get dirty with Meteor.
I finished the book, and there was no errors in the versions of meteor. The app is a great starting point for a project, but I really would have liked for there to be about three more chapters. Given the price, I am not complaining, and the tutorial still deserves five stars for anyone interested in learning meteor from scratch with little to no Node or Mongo experience.
So, the promise is very few lines of code, amazing simplicity, haven't we already been promised too many times the El Dorado of frameworks that solve everything easily? Often the enterprise demands higher level of customization. How easy is this? Let's not forget that this much apparent simplicity implies lots of things happening on the background over which, what grade of control do you have? If you check the official page, you'll see that the people behind Meteor have impressive creds and powerful VC backing behind. Let's see of the framework fares as explained here.
Chapter 1, walks you by the hand through the installation process, which is simple enough, but I like it (which others might not like). It's a good thing that the first chapter bothers to go to detailed instructions so no newbie is left behind. Some times the first steps are the ones that can give serious frustration leading to leaving something aside.
Chapter 2 proceeds to explain just enough theory behind this reactive programming concept as applied in the framework, and how it is designed, but it does so by guiding you step by step through the creation of your first web application using meteor.js, and we start by learning about javascript templates. Obviously the slow pace we saw in chapter 1 cannot be held here. So, even if you were guided step by step through the simple install, then it seems you need to know now about templates, or otherwise just "believe" the code.
Then we get to the interesting part by creating "Reactions" (as in Reactive Programming), which mean Meteor is now watching your objects.
Chapter 3 is basically the presales/demo stuff "Why Meteor.js rocks?". It introduces MVVM for those who are unfamiliar (including a history lesson), and a little bit (perhaps too little) on how Meteor works behind the scenes. Then the rest of the Chapters, up to 7, is where the interesting stuff happens. Let's go one by one.
Off we go to Chapter 4, that revolves around templates. Templating is explained now for those who despaired in the previous chapter, as are the all-important events and data models. I think the level is good enough here for an intro text. I really don't think absolute newbies to programming will be picking this book, as a certain knowledge is already assumed (not about meteor, but about programming in general).
Chapter 5 is about data, according to meteor, and the NoSql paradigm. So, if you're not familiar with MongoDB or document databases, here you'll find an introductory guide, but I'd recommend you go get the manuals for a clearer picture ([...]) or try it online in the official page. Other than that, this chapter gives you the bare minimum to get by. The broadcasting part and the configuration of publishers / subscribers, which makes Meteor tick, is given an adequate but shallow treatment, as is the introduction to the technology, so it won't make you an expert at all. In fact, you will need to delve deeper in other sources to solve problems when developing a new app on your own.
Chapter 6 offers a glimpse of meteor's architecture, in terms of folder and application structures. Some caveats and warnings finally appear. Up to now everything had been so rosy. We learn how to disable some packages and enable others to make the application secure, multi-user, etc. Somehow you finish the chapter and you're left feeling there was much more. A few pointers would have been welcome here. You are also explained what is the structure of the applications (quite simple).
Finally Chapter 7 is about deploying the application in order to start cashing in ;-)
As it's usual with frameworks based on node.js and "bleeding edge" technologies, the deployment to a private box can feel a bit daunting and hard to admin. Deploying to meteor hosting is very simple. Deploying to your irons not so much, and the author admits it. I guess the Meteor guys allow deployment to their own servers in order to gain some traction. The sample app was running there ok.
Some reviewers on the internet complain that the book does not go deep enough, but hey, please look at the title and the page count. It's clearly an introductory level book and I think it does that beautifully. That is what it promises, to lead you step by step. All the code from the working example is explained step by step, so while certainly there's a lot to learn if you want to start coding a more complex app for your company tomorrow, at least the samples are reasonably guided so you're not left out to guess, even if this is one of your first exposures to javascript and modern frameworks and templating.
Just to point out some of the things I liked a bit less, I'd say the books feels a little bit too short. Maybe another 30 to 50 pages to delve a bit deeper into some of the workings of the framework would have been welcome. An extra two pages to explain templating with handlebars or some other fwk would have been nice to see.
All in all, a very good and recommendable read. If you're curious about developments in web technologies (and you must be if you are reading this), read this book.
If your goal is to build an application with Meteor's promising real-time, reactive capabilities, as fast as possible, this book is for you. If your goal is to get a ground up, detailed understanding of how these applications are structured, how the data is being passed back and forth, etc, I suggest readers look elsewhere, and possibly look into other frameworks, like Derby.js.
Meteor is a platform that let you write in one single codebase code that runs both in the client and on the server.
I've not yet finished reading the book but so far it's been a pleasure to read and a very strong introductory guide to this fantastic framework.
The book is based on version 0.5.0; not the very latest one (we're at 0.6.1 at the moment of writing) but no compatibility problems so far (and being before version 1.0 it's pretty normal to see the version number changing quite often and quickly).
The book is not very long (around 131 pages) but it's the perfect format for an introductory guide whose purpose is getting you up to speed in not time. It's impossible not being impressed with the easyness of creating and running an application with a single codebase, front-to-back and you'll be hooked up in no time since the book throws you into the code since the first chapter (and that's obviously very good!)
In the book you'll find everything you need: from practical instructions on how to setup and run the framework, to quick birds eye views on MVC and MV*, how to use templates, deal with a NoSQL Database (Mongo), how to structure your application and publish it on the Meteor.com hosting platform.
Great price tag, great hands-on format and good additional overview on MongoDB as an added bonus.
Highly recommended.
The book is written in a friendly language and it goes through all the processes needed to build a Meteor application from ground up, providing useful code examples that you should follow and test along the way when reading it. You need to be aware that currently only OSX and Linux systems are supported, Windows not yet. Also the book is based on Meteor 0.5.0, however the code should also work with newer versions, although I haven't tested it with the last version which currently is 0.6.0
I found that the book is very easy to follow and although I haven't used Node.js or MongoDB before I had no issues learning to use Meteor from the book and starting to build web apps. You should however know some basic JavaScript before starting learning Meteor. It's also useful that it presents some basics about MongoDB and also about the MVC/MVVM patterns and this knowledge can be used somewhere else also, not only with Meteor. If you're looking to build web applications and fast and use JavaScript I recommend looking into Meteor.js and reading this book.
