They should attack Martin. He's not a good defender.
Good shot Roberts. These guys gotta know where Ibaka is at all times.
They should attack Martin. He's not a good defender.
I'd tell Rivers to swing away. Let him do whatever he wants. If he wants to jack up a 30 footer, do it.
Tune in on Fridays at 12 noon for Sport-a-Facts with Ro Brown and Wednesdays at 1pm for Sports Revolution to hear me speak my mind on all things Saints and Pelicans related and more.
Only on WBOK 1230 AM.
Feel free to PM me for more details.
I would hate to be teamates with Westbrook on the court. I swear.
I've lost all respect for Westbrook and Durant. They have been complete ***holes this game.
"I go so hard, I go so mean... I'm so NEW ORLEANS" - Lil' Wayne"We not stopping at no stores man ! We staying on the gas !" - Tyreke Evans
Not even aware of the shot clock.
Did River just roll his ankle again?!?
We gotta man up, we will take losses like this
New Orleans Pelicans-Seattle Seahawks-Atlanta Braves-Anaheim Ducks
Baptize them in the water out of Scarface pool,
And feed 'em from the table that held Corleone's food,
If you die, tell them that you played my game
I hope your bullet holes become mouths that say my name.
Rivers hurt ankle again. Looked like he was limping there. Doesn't look that bad. We need to get that guy some A grade braces.
He really needs to rest those ankles for a while. They won't ever heal properly if he keeps tweaking them like that. I know we don't have much at guard right now but man, his ankles are going to suffer.
It's the same as my disdain for Blake Griffin. Two dudes in the NBA I do not like.
I like how we tried to fight back, its cute

Established in Texas as an outpost in 1849 by the US Army, Fort Worth is a city that wholeheartedly embraces the cowboy culture and all that goes along with it. The city later became the center of the ranching industry universe as it played a central role in the cattle drives and earned the nickname "Cowtown." Today, the city is a bustling modern metropolis that continues to celebrate its Western heritage.
Stockyards National Historic District: The stockyards are legendary for daily cattle drives on Exchange Avenue. Spectators line the street as authentic cowhands drive their longhorn herds through the district. The historic Cowtown Coliseum hosts a weekly rodeo and Pawnee Bill's Wild West Show featuring riding, roping and trick shooting demonstrations. The Cattlepen Maze provides hours of family fun as visitors negotiate wooden pathways competing against the clock and gathering prizes at the hidden checkpoints. Shopping throughout the Stockyards offers handmade Western wear, including custom cowboy boots and hats.
Cultural District: The Cultural District offers a city park setting and is home to five internationally recognized museums. The Modern Art Museum is the second largest in the country next to MOMA in New York City. The National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame is the only establishment of its kind dedicated to prominent women who shaped the history of the region.
Sundance Square: Located downtown, Sundance Square is the heart of the city and offers shopping, dining and entertainment. Sprawling over 35 blocks, the area is pedestrian friendly with easy access to restaurants, art galleries and a vibrant nightlife offering live entertainment. Steakhouses serve the freshest local beef in hearty portions to feed the hungriest guests. Historic structures worth visiting include former Woolworth's building and the Tarrant County Courthouse.
Visitors to Fort Worth experience a unique blend of old and new in a city that honors its roots in the Wild West.

Peru 1-1 Argentina
Argentina held on to top spot in the World Cup South American Qualifying Zone with an uninspiring 1-1 draw at Peru.
Alejandro Sabella's men were way below their best and they fell behind to Carlos Zambrano's opener - after Claudio Pizarro had missed from the penalty spot - before Real Madrid striker Gonzalo Higuain levelled matters.
The draw helped Argentina stay top by one point ahead of Colombia and Ecuador respectively.
Peru dominated possession throughout and they had an opportunity to make a dream start when Angel Di Maria fouled Jefferson Farfan in the box.
Pizarro stepped up but his effort produced a fine save from Argentina keeper Sergio Romero.
The two-time World Cup winners were given a reprieve but they could not take advantage and it was Peru who took a deserved lead in the 22nd minute.
Rinaldo Cruzado picked out Luis Advincula, who was allowed plenty of room to cross to Zambrano and he made no mistake.
That spurred Argentina into action and Higuain drew them level seven minutes before half-time after a flowing move involving Federico Fernandez and Ezequiel Lavezzi.
The visitors came firing out of the traps after the interval as Lavezzi forced keeper Raul Fernandez to save at his near post while at the other end, Andre Carrillo's long-range strike struck a post.
Argentina finished the match strongly with Higuain forcing Fernandez into action from distance while Marcos Rojo headed over from a corner.
Peru were worthy of at least a share of the spoils although they remain third from bottom in the standings.

Although I really didn't know what to do with that first Crock-Pot I received as a gift many years ago, I noticed a little booklet of recipes that came with it and made some easy meals for the family.
Within the last few years, the Crock-Pot and other slow cookers have reappeared as a "must-have" for the kitchen. In fact, many homes have more than one.
My granddaughter, Meagan, uses her slow cooker often — I think I need to take lessons from her. She makes some of the best pinto beans I've ever eaten and she does it in the slow cooker. What surprises me is that they are just as thick as beans cooked on top of the stove for several hours.
Recently, I received a call from a reader who had lost her recipe for Crock-Pot Mac and Cheese and wanted to know if I could help her. I asked her to tell me what she could remember and then found the following recipe in "The Lighthouse Cookbook," compiled by the youth at our church.
Another great slow cooker recipe that I found in the church cookbook is for Crock-Pot Roast. This would be great to have ready to eat when you return from that shopping trip.
At Christmas time, I like to make chocolate peanut clusters in my slow cooker. It is one of the easiest candies to make and is perfect to have on hand as a gift for unexpected guests during the holidays.
2 large cans evaporated milk
3 cups milk
6 cups shredded cheese (save 1 cup to go on top)
16 ounces macaroni, cooked
1 stick butter, melted
2 cans Cheddar cheese soup
While cooking macaroni, put all other ingredients in Crock-Pot (reserving 1 cup of shredded cheese for top) then put in cooked macaroni. Stir well. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top. Cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 4 to 5 hours.
NOTE: This makes a lot of mac and cheese, so you might want to cut the recipe in half. CROCK-POT ROAST
4 medium potatoes, quartered
2 cups baby carrots
1 stalk celery, cut in 1-inch pieces
1 onion, quartered
2 1/2 pounds boneless chuck roast
1 can diced tomatoes with herbs
1/2 can water
Salt and pepper to taste
Place potatoes, carrots, celery and onion in Crock-Pot. Place roast on top. Mix tomatoes and water; pour over roast. Cover and cook on low for 11 to 12 hours. Serves 3 to 5 people.
32 ounces unsalted dry roasted peanuts
1 (4 ounce) bar of German chocolate, broken into pieces
12 ounce bag of milk chocolate chips
1 1/4 pound chocolate coating bars (sometimes called almond bark)
Layer ingredients as listed above in large slow cooker. Cover and cook on low heat for 2 hours. DO NOT LIFT LID! After two hours, stir and drop from spoon onto wax paper. Allow to cool and become firm before lifting from paper.
NOTE: I sometimes like to use half dark chocolate almond bark and half white almond bark.

I've never been one who has liked to play video games.
I'd like to think that my brilliant mind simply finds it boring, but the reason is probably the fact that I'm really not any good at them and therefore don't see the fun in it!
My 3 year old could probably beat me in just about any game out there, and what fun is that?!
My oldest son is 8 years old and just like most 8 year olds he LOVES video games! During the school year we have to limit his time to Saturdays only, otherwise he could quite possibly play XBox all day, every day!
The only exception to this rule is if dad gets home from work on a weekday and needs to "wind down" with a friendly (yet competitive) game of NHL Hockey- him vs. my 8 year old.
What used to be a cute father/son activity where my husband would eventually let the kid win has now turned into some serious competition. Ethan can hold his own and has won many games against his dad. The "smack talking" between the 2 of them is quite comical and it is always fun to see them play together.
A 33 year old against an 8 year old, each one taking turns winning the virtual Stanley Cup and each one earning bragging rights until the next game night.
To celebrate summer fun, Redbox is asking moms, "Which member of your family is the best at video games? Who's the worst?" Plus, they are rewarding 2 lucky people with a chance to win $10,000 as part of the Redbox Summer of Fun & Games Sweepstakes.

|Dancers Alecia Good and Goddard Finley.
Yes Virginia, Another Piano Ballet
Choreography: Peter Anastos
Music: Frederic Chopin
First performed: New York, 1976
First performed by KCB: February 27, 1992
Beginning with Jerome Robbins' Dances at a Gathering (1969) there has been a series of "piano ballets" which somehow seek to demystify and humanize the classical ballet dancer and his milieu. Where classical ballet presents itself as formal and aristocratic, piano ballets present dancers as just plain folks having a communal experience feeling each other's energy. This is somewhat akin to celebrities on TV talk shows sharing their laundry problems with the nation.
Yes Virginia,...was created for the Broadway debut Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo at the Palace Theatre in 1976. It has subsequently been staged for Mikhail Baryshnikov and Company, Alexander Godunov and Company, and for several regional ballet companies. It has been danced to great acclaim throughout five continents and it is even rumored that a woman in Japan is still laughing at that low arabesque in the third movement.

Henkel Harris to stay open through January to fill orders
Thomas Russell -- Furniture Today, January 4, 2013
WINCHESTER, Va. — Upper end case goods producer Henkel Harris plans to remain open through the end of this month in order to complete production on its last orders, according to a consultant assisting the company.
As the manufacturer works through its backlog and finished goods inventory, it also continues to entertain offers from interested parties that may wish to acquire aspects of the business.
While no firm deal has been reached, there has been some interest in the business, said Tim Stump, president of Charlotte, N.C. merger and acquisition specialist Stump & Co. Stump added that company officials continue to explore various options to keep the business open.
Henkel Harris had announced in late October that it planned to close its doors around Dec. 31. At the time, the company attributed the closing to foreign competition and the weak economy.
But the 67-year-old company had such a large backlog, that there was no way to complete or ship all the orders by that date, said Darrell Habron, of Habron Financial Consulting, a Winchester area firm working with the manufacturer during the transition.
It was not immediately clear how many workers were left manning the production or administrative sides of the business. At the time of the closure announcement in late October, there were 109 employees in production and 13 in administration.
According to its website, the company also plans a factory warehouse sale Jan. 10-12, but the ad doesn't mention any specifics about the closing.
Parties interested in the business should contact Stump at Stump & Co. in Charlotte, N.C., at (704) 905-2058 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

What are shin splints symptoms?
Comment on this Read 23 Comments
Shin splints cause pain in the front of the outer leg below the knee. The pain of shin splints is characteristically located on the outer edge of the mid region of the leg next to the shinbone (tibia). An area of discomfort measuring 4-6 inches (10-15 cm) in length is frequently present. Pain is often noted at the early portion of the workout, then lessens, only to reappear near the end of the training session. Shin splint discomfort is often described as dull at first. However, with continuing trauma, the pain can become so extreme as to cause the athlete to stop workouts altogether.
What causes shin splints?
Comment on this Read 23 Comments
A primary culprit causing shin splints is a sudden increase in distance or intensity of a workout schedule. This increase in muscle work can be associated with inflammation of the lower leg muscles, those muscles used in lifting the foot (the motion during which the foot pivots toward the tibia). Such a situation can be aggravated by a tendency to pronate the foot (roll it excessively inward onto the arch).
Similarly, a tight Achilles tendon or weak ankle muscles are also often implicated in the development of shin splints.

In this very personal reminiscence, readers glimpse beautiful Dijon against the backdrop of between-the-wars Europe through the eyes, heart and stomach of a most wise and articulate woman.
The Long and Short of It: From Aphorism to Novelby Morson Gary Saul
Brevity may be the soul of wit, but it is also much more. In this exploration of the shortest literary works-wise sayings, proverbs, witticisms, sardonic observations about human nature, pithy evocations of mystery, terse statements regarding ultimate questions-Gary Saul Morson argues passionately for the importance of these short genres not only to scholars but also to general readers. We are fascinated by how brief works evoke a powerful sense of life in a few words, which is why we browse quotation anthologies and love to repeat our favorites. Arguing that all short genres are short in their own way, Morson explores the unique form of brevity that each of them develops. Apothegms (Heraclitus, Lao Tzu, Wittgenstein) describe the universe as ultimately unknowable, offering not answers but ever deeper questions. Dicta (Spinoza, Marx, Freud) create the sense that unsolvable enigmas have at last been resolved. Sayings from sages and sacred texts assure us that goodness is rewarded, while sardonic maxims (Ecclesiastes, Nietzsche, George Eliot) uncover the self-deceptions behind such comforting illusions. Just as witticisms display the power of mind, "witlessisms" (William Spooner, Dan Quayle, the persona assumed by Mark Twain) astonish with their spectacular stupidity. Nothing seems further from these short works than novels and epics, but the shortest genres often set the tone for longer ones, which, in turn, contain brilliant examples of short forms. Morson shows that short genres contribute important insights into the history of literature and philosophical thought. Once we grasp the role of aphorisms in Herodotus, Samuel Johnson, Dostoevsky, and even Tolstoy, we see their masterpieces in an entirely new light.
The Long Arm of Gil Hamiltonby Larry Niven
3 novellas from the science fiction writer: Death by Ecstasy, The Defenseless Dead, and Arm.
Long Arm Quarterbackby Matt Christopher
Cap Wadell loves football; unfortunately, living in a rural town of 1,223 people makes putting together a team a little difficult. His grandfather suggests that Cap organize a local six-man team and play with other surrounding small towns. Recruiting players, finding uniforms, locating a field to play on, and securing a rule book are all easily done, but one major problem remains -- who is going to coach this team? Cap thinks his grandfather is perfect for the job, but trouble strikes when another grandfather thinks Cap's grandfather is playing favorites by putting Cap at quarterback. An old-time rivalry is about to heat up again as the grandfathers battle it out off the field and Cap and the other grandson battle it out on field. As the generations clash, nobody is exactly sure who will succeed and play the coveted quarterback position. Who in the end will prevail?
The Long-Awaited Stork: A Guide to Parenting After Infertilityby Ellen Sarasohn Glazer
This book is about the pain of infertility that persists even after a couple becomes parents.
Long Ball to Left Fieldby Duane Decker
Blue Sox 9. The Blue Sox had a problem. After nearly ten years in left field, the famous Kennie Willard had retired, and someone was needed to take his place and bat in the clean-up slot. They had Mike Jaffe, a bonus boy, who had proved during his two years with the Sox that he could do just what was wanted: hit that long ball to left. But Mike didn't want to be an outfielder; he was convinced that he should be a pitcher, as his father had been. Feeling like this, Mike just naturally was sympathetic toward pitchers, even when they weren't on his own team. Since this proved to be an unsatisfactory state of mind for a potential slugger, Mike began to spend more and more time on a Sox farm club instead of with the Sox themselves. Because Mr. Decker is a strictly major-league baseball writer, he resolves this situation in a true-to-life way. Boys will enjoy this sports novel both for its excitement and its authenticity.
The Long, Bitter Trail (Andrew Jackson and the Indians)by Anthony F. C. Wallace
This account of Congress's Indian Removal Act of 1830 focuses on the plight of the Indians of the Southeast--Cherokees, Creeks, Choctaws, Chickasaws, and Seminoles--who were forced to leave their ancestral lands and relocate to what is now the state of Oklahoma. Revealing Andrew Jackson's central role in the government's policies, Wallace examines the racist attitudes toward Native Americans that led to their removal and, ultimately, their tragic fate.
The Long Christmasby Ruth Sawyer
The Christmas is long because the author believes it takes a full season of feasting, singing, storytelling, and observing many holiday traditions to attain then maintain a Christmas state of mind in keeping with the importance of Christ's birth. Ruth Sawyer retells tales she's gathered with care and respect for the traditions and peoples who have passed them on for centuries as Christmas entertainment and inspiration. Her 9 page Introduction in which she sketches the practices of many nations since the first Christmas is as captivating as the 13 stories that follow. Who would not sympathize with the old men who, on the day before Twelfth Night, stood so long admiring the pastries through the display windows that mischievous boys nailed their coat tails to the shop walls? Before each tale is a carol from that story's country of origin. Such as the carol from the north of Spain in which Miguel brings a mouse, gray and small, for Christ's house. And a cobbler sings, "Carol clear, casting all fear out, May his sandals wear the year out." The stories are peopled with a gallery of characters spurning, embracing, and being moved by the birth of Jesus. Satan in a sombrero terrorizes shepherds who don't yet know that Jesus as been born. A Roman soldier, who laughed three times at Christians, wanders for centuries until he understands the goodness Christ brought to the world. A kind, generous girl who never had a family or home of her own because she was scorned as a tinker's daughter, is given a home for all time where she can shelter the poor. Three frightened, motherless, boys are rudely pushed out of bed by a cranky dwarf who makes them do cartwheels and stand on their heads to keep warm, but leaves them with the merriest Christmas of their lives. A hunch backed young ship builder, a starving Irish Immigrant with two cold babies, and a wise, devoted King's fool, make us believe in miracles and challenge us to help others and put love in our Christmas celebrations.
Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soulby Douglas Adams
When a passenger check-in desk at Terminal Two, Heathrow Airport, shot up through the roof engulfed in a ball of orange flame the usual people tried to claim responsibility. First the IRA, then the PLO and the Gas Board. Even British Nuclear Fuels rushed out a statement to the effect that the situation was completely under control, that it was a one in a million chance, that there was hardly any radioactive leakage at all and that the site of the explosion would make a nice location for a day out with the kids and a picnic, before finally having to admit that it wasn't actually anything to do with them at all. No rational cause could be found for the explosion -- it was simply designated an act of God. But, think Dirk Gently, which God? And why? What God would be hanging around Terminal Two of Heathrow Airport trying to catch the 15:37 to Oslo? Funnier than Psycho...more chilling than Jeeves Takes Charge ...shorter than War and Peace...the new Dirk Gently novel, The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul.
Long Day's Journey into Nightby Eugene O'Neill
Eugene O'Neill's autobiographical play Long Day's Journey into Night is regarded as his finest work.

This edition, which includes a new foreword by Harold Bloom, coincides with a new production of the play starring Brian Dennehy, which opens in Chicago in January 2002 and in New York in April.
The Long Descent: A User's Guide to the End of the Industrial Ageby John Michael Greer
Americans are expressing deep concern about US dependence on petroleum, rising energy prices, and the threat of climate change. Unlike the energy crisis of the 1970s, however, there is a lurking fear that now the times are different and the crisis may not easily be resolved. The Long Descent examines the basis of such fear through three core themes: Industrial society is following the same well-worn path that has led other civilizations into decline, a path involving a much slower and more complex transformation than the sudden catastrophes imagined by so many social critics today. The roots of the crisis lie in the cultural stories that shape the way we understand the world. Since problems cannot be solved with the same thinking that created them, these ways of thinking need to be replaced with others better suited to the needs of our time. It is too late for massive programs for top-down change; the change must come from individuals. Hope exists in actions that range from taking up a handicraft or adopting an "obsolete" technology, through planting an organic vegetable garden, taking charge of your own health care or spirituality, and building community. Focusing eloquently on constructive adaptation to massive change, this book will have wide appeal. John Michael Greer is a certified Master Conserver, organic gardener, and scholar of ecological history. The current Grand Archdruid of the Ancient Order of Druids in America (AODA), his widely-cited blog, The Archdruid Report (thearchdruidreport.blogspot.com) deals with peak oil, among other issues. He lives in Ashland, Oregon.

The Long Divergence: How Islamic Law Held Back the Middle Eastby Timur Kuran
In the year 1000, the economy of the Middle East was at least as advanced as that of Europe. But by 1800, the region had fallen dramatically behind--in living standards, technology, and economic institutions. In short, the Middle East had failed to modernize economically as the West surged ahead. What caused this long divergence? And why does the Middle East remain drastically underdeveloped compared to the West? InThe Long Divergence, one of the world's leading experts on Islamic economic institutions and the economy of the Middle East provides a new answer to these long-debated questions. Timur Kuran argues that what slowed the economic development of the Middle East was not colonialism or geography, still less Muslim attitudes or some incompatibility between Islam and capitalism. Rather, starting around the tenth century, Islamic legal institutions, which had benefitted the Middle Eastern economy in the early centuries of Islam, began to act as a drag on development by slowing or blocking the emergence of central features of modern economic life--including private capital accumulation, corporations, large-scale production, and impersonal exchange. By the nineteenth century, modern economic institutions began to be transplanted to the Middle East, but its economy has not caught up. And there is no quick fix today. Low trust, rampant corruption, and weak civil societies--all characteristic of the region's economies today and all legacies of its economic history--will take generations to overcome. The Long Divergenceopens up a frank and honest debate on a crucial issue that even some of the most ardent secularists in the Muslim world have hesitated to discuss.
The Long Embrace: Raymond Chandler and the Woman He Lovedby Judith Freeman
Raymond Chandler was among the most original and enduring crime novelists of the twentieth century. Yet much of his pre-writing life, including his unconventional marriage, has remained shrouded in mystery. In this compelling, wholly original book, Judith Freeman sets out to solve the puzzle of who Chandler was and how he became the writer who would create in Philip Marlowe an icon of American culture. Visiting Chandler's many homes and apartments, Freeman uncovers vestiges of the Los Angeles that was Chandler's terrain and inspiration for his imagination. She also uncovers the life of Cissy Pascal, the older, twice-divorced woman Chandler married in 1924. A revelation of a marriage that was a wellspring of need, illusion, and creativity, The Long Embrace provides us with a more complete picture of Raymond Chandler's life and art than any we have had before.
The Long Exile: A Tale of Inuit Betrayal and Survival in the High Arcticby Melanie Mcgrath
Arriving in the Inuit community of Inukjuak, on the east coast of the Hudson Bay, in 1920, Robert Flaherty set about filming his influential film Nanook of the North. After finishing his filming, Flaherty would leave never to return, but the son he fathered, Josephie Flaherty, would remain behind to suffer with his community as they were forcibly moved hundreds of miles north by the Canadian government some 30 years later, not to receive any form of redress until the mid-1990s. This book both describes the making of the movie and the influence it had on perceptions of the Inuit and the fortunes of Robert Flaherty's Inuit descendants as they coped with exile and hardship.

The Long Fallby Lynn Kostoff
In sun-baked Phoenix, Arizona, this never-predictable tale tosses into its antic mix a dead father, his two sons--one a small-time ex-con with a consistent genius for sabotaging his own best interests, the other a straight, uptight solid citizen with a moneymaking chain of dry-cleaning stores and a restive ex-stewardess of a wife named Evelyn. Recently released from prison for possession of a truckload of black-market saguaro cacti - and in deep debt to an unforgiving crank dealer, Jimmy Coates returns home only to discover that his brother has cut him out of his inheritance. A not-unjustifiable desire to settle old scores and new sends Jimmy on a robbery spree that wipes out four of his brother's dry-cleaning establishments. But when he finds himself tumbling for a mutinously sexy Evelyn, the impulse to vengeance reverses itself. Unwittingly, however, Jimmy has already set in motion a series of dangerous consequences - adultery, blackmail, love, betrayal - that culminate in a blueprint for murder. And it could be Jimmy himself who is taking the long fall.
The Long Fall (Leonid McGill #1)by Walter Mosley
A brand-new mystery series from one of the country's best-known, best-loved writers: a new character, a new city, a new era. A new Walter Mosley. His name is etched on the door of his Manhattan office: LEONID McGILL, PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR. It's a name that takes a little explaining, but he's used to it. "Daddy was a communist and great-great- Granddaddy was a slave master from Scotland. You know, the black man's family tree is mostly root. Whatever you see aboveground is only a hint at the real story." Ex-boxer, hard drinker, in a business that trades mostly in cash and favors: McGill's an old-school P.I. working a city that's gotten fancy all around him. Fancy or not, he has always managed to get by-keep a roof over the head of his wife and kids, and still manage a little fun on the side-mostly because he's never been above taking a shady job for a quick buck. But like the city itself, McGill is turning over a new leaf, "decided to go from crooked to slightly bent." New York City in the twenty-first century is a city full of secrets-and still a place that reacts when you know where to poke and which string to pull. That's exactly the kind of thing Leonid McGill knows how to do. As soon as The Long Fall begins, with McGill calling in old markers and greasing NYPD palms to unearth some seemingly harmless information for a high-paying client, he learns that even in this cleaned-up city, his commitment to the straight and narrow is going to be constantly tested. And we learn that with this protagonist, this city, this time, Mosley has tapped a rich new vein that's inspiring his best work since the classic Devil in a Blue Dress.
The Long Fallingby Keith Ridgway
Grace Quinn is an Englishwoman living in rural Ireland. Isolated by religion and circumstance, she endures both an abusive husband and a strained relationship with her son, Martin, whose open homosexuality her husband refuses to accept. After an act of desperation, reeling with doubt and denial, she seeks out her son in Dublin. Keith Ridgway "affectingly renders the separate sanctuaries of mother and son . . . and lights the distance between them" (The New Yorker). Keith Ridgway's first novel, nominated for 1999 Lambda Literary Award.
Long for This Worldby Jonathan Weiner
From the Pulitzer Prize-winning science writer Jonathan Weiner comes a fast-paced and astonishing scientific adventure story: has the long-sought secret of eternal youth at last been found? In recent years, the dream of eternal youth has started to look like more than just a dream. In the twentieth century alone, life expectancy increased by more than thirty years-almost as much time as humans have gained in the whole span of human existence. Today a motley array of scientists, researchers, and entrepreneurs believe that another, bigger leap is at hand-that human immortality is not only possible, but attainable in our own time. Is there genius or folly in the dreams of these charismatic but eccentric thinkers? In Long for This World, Jonathan Weiner, a natural storyteller and an intrepid reporter with a gift for making cutting-edge science understandable, takes the reader on a whirlwind intellectual quest to find out. From Berkeley to the Bronx, from Cambridge University to Dante's tomb in Ravenna, Weiner meets the leading intellectuals in the field and delves into the mind-blowing science behind the latest research. He traces the centuries-old, fascinating history of the quest for longevity in art, science, and literature, from Gilgamesh to Shakespeare, Doctor Faustus to "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button." And he tells the dramatic story of how aging could be conquered once and for all, focusing on the ideas of those who believe aging is a curable disease. Chief among them is the extraordinary Aubrey de Grey, a garrulous Englishman who bears more than a passing resemblance to Methuselah (at 969 years, the oldest man in the Bible) and who is perhaps immortality's most radical and engaging true believer. A rollicking scientific adventure story in the grand manner of Oliver Sacks, Long for This World is science writing of the highest order and with the highest stakes. Could we live forever? And if we could...would we want to?

The Long Goodbyeby Patti Davis
Ronald Reagan's daughter writes with a moving openness about losing her father to Alzheimer's disease. The simplicity with which she reveals the intensity, the rush, the flow of her feelings encompasses all the surprises and complexities that ambush us when death gradually, unstoppably invades life.In The Long Goodbye, Patti Davis describes losing her father to Alzheimer's disease, saying goodbye in stages, helpless against the onslaught of a disease that steals what is most precious-a person's memory. "Alzheimer's," she writes, "snips away at the threads, a slow unraveling, a steady retreat; as a witness all you can do is watch, cry, and whisper a soft stream of goodbyes."She writes of needing to be reunited at forty-two with her mother ("she had wept as much as I over our long, embittered war"), of regaining what they had spent decades demolishing; a truce was necessary to bring together a splintered family, a few weeks before her father released his letter telling the country and the world of his illness . . .The author delves into her memories to touch her father again, to hear his voice, to keep alive the years she had with him.She writes as if past and present were coming together, of her memories as a child, holding her father's hand, and as a young woman whose hand is being given away in marriage by her father . . . of her father teaching her to ride a bicycle, of the moment when he let her go and she went off on her own . . . of his teaching her the difference between a hawk and a buzzard . . . of the family summer vacations at a rented beach house-each of them tan, her father looking like the athlete he was, with a swimmer's broad shoulders and lean torso. . . . She writes of how her father never resisted solitude, in fact was born for it, of that strange reserve that made people reach for him. . . . She recalls him sitting at his desk, writing, staring out the window . . . and she writes about the toll of the disease itself, the look in her father's eyes, and her efforts to reel him back to her. Moving . . . honest . . . an illuminating portrait of grief, of a man, a disease, and a woman and her father.From the Hardcover edition.

Gloucester received a timely boost with the news that Darren Dawidiuk, Shaun Knight, Charlie Sharples, James Simpson-Daniel and Elliott Stooke have agreed new contracts with the club.
Dawidiuk is in his fifth season with Gloucester having signed from the Cornish Pirates. Since his arrival, he has been a regular in the first team squad and made 80 first team appearances.
The Truro born hooker brings an abrasive presence to the Gloucester front row and always impresses with his work in the set piece.
Shaun Knight, Gloucester born and bred, is another success story for the Gloucester Rugby Academy. He possesses a fine Gloucester pedigree with his father having represented the club during his playing career.
A former England U20 prop, he has amassed considerable first team experience over the past few seasons, and earned selection for the England Saxons.
Charlie Sharples is one of the club's biggest recent success stories, having come through the Academy system. The pacey wing, capped four times by England, boasts a superb strike rate with 47 tries from 108 competitive starts.
Former England flyer James Simpson-Daniel needs no introduction. Destined to go down as a Gloucester legend, he has made well over 250 competitive appearances over 14 seasons.
A one club man, Gloucester supporters will be pleased to see him extend his stay at Kingsholm.
Finally, 20-year-old lock Elliott Stooke has enjoyed an amazing few months. He was part of the England U20 squad that won the Junior World Championship for the first time back in June.
Upon his return to Gloucester, he has enjoyed a tremendous season to date, making 15 competitive first team appearances and scoring a try against Northampton Saints on his first Premiership start.
Director of Rugby Nigel Davies confirmed that the five players agreeing new deals is very positive news for the club, and that recruitment for 2013/14 is coming along nicely.
"I'm delighted that all four of them have committed their futures to Gloucester Rugby," he said.
"Charlie, Darren, James and Shaun have been a big part of the club's success in recent years and Elliott has a huge future in front of him.
"It's been a busy couple of months for us on top of the re-signings announced before Christmas and the arrivals next season of John Afoa and Richard Hibbard.
"The players can see where the club is heading, and are excited to be a part of that going forward. Their commitment speaks volumes.
"And, once again, it's a testimony to the hard work and commitment of everyone at the club.
"We're able to invest significantly in our team thanks to the backing of our board, the continued financial success of Gloucester Rugby and the significant investment made by our partners, sponsors and supporters."

The Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Residents in the tough Cleveland neighborhood where three women were secretly imprisoned for a decade reacted with scorn and grim satisfaction Wednesday after Ariel Castro hanged himself in his cell barely a month into a life sentence.
Ariel Castro sits in a Cleveland, Ohio, courtroom Aug. 1 during the sentencing phase of his trial. Castro, who held 3 women captive for a decade, has committed suicide, prison officials said.

Castro, 53, now serving a life sentence for the kidnapping and rapes, was found hanging in his cell, Tuesday night, Sept. 3, 2013, at the Correctional Reception Center in Orient, Ohio. (AP Photo/Tony Dejak, File)
Even the prosecutor joined in.
"This man couldn't take, for even a month, a small portion of what he had dished out for more than a decade," said Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Tim McGinty.
Castro, 53, was found hanging from a bedsheet Tuesday night at the state prison in Orient, corrections spokeswoman JoEllen Smith said. Prison medical staff performed CPR before Castro was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
The coroner's office said it was suicide.
"He took the coward's way out," said Elsie Cintron, who lived up the street from the former school bus driver. "We're sad to hear that he's dead, but at the same time, we're happy he's gone, and now we know he can't ask for an appeal or try for one if he's acting like he's crazy."
As the shocking news sank in, prison officials faced questions about how a high-profile inmate managed to commit suicide while in protective custody. Just a month ago, an Ohio death row inmate killed himself days before he was to be executed.
Ohio prisons director Gary Mohr announced a review of Castro's suicide and whether he had received proper medical and mental health care. State police are also investigating.
The announcement came after the American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio called for a full investigation.
"As horrifying as Mr. Castro's crimes may be, the state has a responsibility to ensure his safety from himself and others," executive director Christine Link said.
Through a spokeswoman, Castro's three victims declined to comment.
Castro was sentenced Aug. 1 to life in prison plus 1,000 years after pleading guilty to 937 counts, including kidnapping and rape, in a deal to avoid the death penalty. At his sentencing, he told the judge: "I'm not a monster. I'm sick."
Castro had been in a cell by himself in protective custody, meaning he was checked every 30 minutes, because of fears his notoriety could lead to attacks from other inmates, authorities said.
He was not on a suicide watch, which entails constant supervision, Smith said. She would not say why.
Officials would not say whether he left a suicide note.
Castro had been on a suicide watch for a few weeks in the Cuyahoga County jail, before he pleaded guilty and was turned over to state authorities, and police said after his arrest that they had found a years-old note in which he talked about suicide. But authorities at the jail dropped the suicide watch in June after concluding he was unlikely to take his own life.
Castro's captives — Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight — disappeared separately between 2002 and 2004, when they were 14, 16 and 20. They were rescued from Castro's run-down house May 6 after Berry broke through a screen door.
Elation over the women's rescue turned to shock as details emerged about their captivity. Castro fathered a child with Berry while she was being held. The girl was 6 when she was freed.
Investigators also disclosed that the women were bound with chains, repeatedly raped and deprived of food and bathroom facilities.
Knight told authorities that Castro impregnated her repeatedly and made her miscarry by starving her and punching her in the belly. Berry said she was forced to give birth in a plastic kiddie pool.

The Republican Party of Iowa announced Thursday that Rick Santorum finished ahead of Mitt Romney in its Jan. 3 caucuses, meaning the contest resulted in a virtual tie between the two candidates.
After more than two weeks of certifying the results, the former Pennsylvania senator pulled ahead of Romney by 34 votes despite Romney being declared the winner on Jan. 3 by an 8 vote margin.
The final official numbers stand at Santorum with 29,839 and Romney with 29,805, but the results from eight of the 1774 precincts could not be located and certified, leaving lingering questions as to who is the actual winner of the Iowa Caucus.
NBC News will not declare a winner in the Iowa Caucus. With the missing precincts, it is impossible to know the final results.
But the Santorum campaign believes the former Pennsylvania senator is the winner of the caucus – campaign email reads "Santorum wins Iowa" – and that this new development will perhaps help him the South Carolina primary on Saturday.
"We've had two early state contests with two winners — and the narrative that Governor Romney and the media have been touting of 'inevitability' has been destroyed," National Communications Director Hogan Gidley said in a statement about the candidate.
"This latest defeat of Governor Romney in Iowa is just the beginning, and Rick Santorum is committed to continuing the fight as the clear, consistent conservative voice in this race," the statement continued. Santorum was the one candidate who practically lived in Iowa – holding more events in the Hawkeye State than anyone else this cycle.
The Romney campaign, which always downplayed expectations in the state, is also pushing this as a tie.
"The results from Iowa caucus night revealed a virtual tie," Mitt Romney said in a written statement released by his campaign. "I would like to thank the Iowa Republican Party for their careful attention to the caucus process, and we once again recognize Rick Santorum for his strong performance in the state. The Iowa caucuses, with record turnout, were a great start to defeating President Obama in Iowa and elsewhere in the general election."
Iowa GOP Chairman Matt Strawn said the verdict from the first-in-the-nation caucus state is just too close to call.
"Just as I did in the early morning hours on January 4, I congratulate Senator Santorum and Governor Romney on a hard-fought effort during the closest contest in caucus history," Chairman Strawn said in a statement. "Our goal throughout the certification process was to most accurately reflect and report how Iowans voted the evening of January 3. We understand the importance to the candidates involved, but as Iowans, we understand the responsibility we have as temporary caretakers of the Iowa caucuses."
It is important to note that the Iowa Caucus results are not binding, meaning the results do not dictate which candidate the delegates at the national conventions in the summer have to vote for. So not having an actual "winner" of the caucuses will not have as big of an impact as it would in other binding states.
But a shift in results — from Romney ahead on caucus night, to Santorum now ahead weeks later — does appear to raise some questions about the Iowa Caucus process.
"This is bad news for the Iowa caucuses. It undermines their credibility in future presidential races. When so much is riding on an accurate count, to flub the counting will diminish the significance of the events in the future," former longtime Des Moines Register political reporter David Yepsen told NBC News.
"Plenty of people are looking for reasons not to come to Iowa and this gives them another. You could title this story as Farewell to Corn Dogs," Yepsen said, who also noted that this isn't the first time Iowa Caucus result have been called into questions. "Given that, the Iowa Republicans were on notice and should have done more to guard against this problem."
And no matter how the results turned out weeks later, many believe the limelight already passed for the "winner" — it passed on Jan. 3.
"This result doesn't change anything. The narrative was set following the caucuses, and reset after the New Hampshire primaries," one Republican strategist and caucus veteran said.

We Are Knox...
Lora Sariaslan '99
Museum Curator
Art History Major
Lora Sariaslan '99 touches art and history every day.
Curator at the Istanbul Museum of Art, Sariaslan, a Turkish international student
who graduated from Knox in 1999, creates exhibitions; acquires original works of art; educates visitors; labels exhibits; keeps careful track of museum inventory; welcomes and shows world leaders and royalty the museum; and, at times, oversees research on collection pieces. Yet she didn't always plan on working in museums or in the field of art history.
Sariaslan's first declared major at Knox was biology -- in fact, she came to Knox because of the biology program -- and art history was her minor. "After my second term as a biology major and, most important, after dissecting a wonderful pig that my lab partner and I even had named" she says, "I realized that biology was not really my cup of tea."
Her minor then became her major.
"Greg Gilbert, associate professor of art, got me interested in art history," she says. "His passion and true interest in sharing that passion made a complete difference for me. Professor Gilbert taught interactive and horizon-opening classes, which I know first-hand made a lot of students switch majors or declare art history as their field like I did," she says.
Sariaslan says her Knox education encompassed everything from studying classics to women's studies to studio art and that "made for a fuller education." Her Knox experience, first and foremost, helped make her a free thinking and expressive individual. "It taught us to be independent, and I think this goes even further for international students, who create a completely new beginning for themselves during their time at Knox."

In general, gynecologic cancers are divided into stages 0 through IV, depending upon how deep they penetrate the organ in which they started, whether they have invaded nearby tissues or lymph nodes, and whether they have spread to other organs.
Stage 0 is known as carcinoma in situ, which is often not considered true cancer but simply abnormal cells, or very early cancer that is very localized. Later stages have spread deeper into the affected tissues or spread to nearby tissues or organs.
Cervical cancer stages indicate the extent to which the cancer has spread throughout the body.
Ovarian cancers are divided into stages to indicate how advanced the cancer is.
Uterine cancer is divided into stages to indicate how advanced the cancer is.
