The Ferryman

Mass Market Paperback

5.0 out of 5 stars
A Very Different Kind of Ghost Story
Aug. 12 2002
This review is from:
The Ferryman (Mass Market Paperback)
The spooky cover of this book made me pick it up. Page one hooked me. The Ferryman is a very different kind of ghost story in that the main characters' nemesis is Charon, Greek god of the Underworld.
Janine Hartschorn experiences a nightmare, where she is standing next to a river in a hellish place. A lone figure beckons to her from his boat in the river. She realizes that she has three silver coins in her hand and that they are her fare towards death. Terrified, she flings them into the river and tries to run. But the mud sucks at her.
What she thought was a nasty dream turns into an all-out harrowing fight for survival. Janine is not alone, though. Her former lover, David Bairstow, and their mutual friend, Annette also find themselves entangled as the ghosts of David's past spring to life as Charon's minions, bent on killing them so he can claim Janine.
The Ferryman is a fast-paced story that kept me reading. If I had to describe it, I would say that it is a blend of Peter Straub's "Ghost Story", William Blatty's "The Exorcist", and Golden's own weird surrealism. The ending was well done. Very cinematic, as one reviewer put it. Recommended.

Cold Heart (Mass Market Paperback)
If you enjoy reading suspense novels, then you'll love this book. Cold Heart begins with Micky Ascherfeld, patrolling the streets with her lover/partner, when an armored truck crashes into them, sending their cruiser into a topless bar. The truck backs up and smashes them again. Micky manages to get out of the cruiser, only to suffer a nasty flashback of her parents' brutal murders as she is trying to flee from the psychopath that is now chasing her through the bar.
She survives the ordeal, but it has taken a terrible toll on her spirit. At the urging of a good friend (Damon), she visits McRay, Alaska. The story jumps ahead four years. She now lives in McRay, and everything is fine until the town oddball decides to go on a killing spree. Will Micky's past cripple her with fear again, or will she overcome it?
McGrew throws in plenty of twists, and the ending may surprise you. El was a good killing machine, but he wasn't very interesting as a villian. Damon, however, would've made an excellent psychopath since he made a living dealing with such. In that way, I was disappointed. But I give this book five stars because it is so entertaining. I found myself rooting for Micky and Dawn until the very end. Recommended.
Armed and Dangerous: Memoirs of a Chicago Policewoman

This review is from:
Armed and Dangerous: Memoirs of a Chicago Policewoman (Hardcover)
Armed & Dangerous is an excellent book whether you are considering a career in law enforcement or not. Gallo begins her story with her father, who was shot on Easter, describing the pain of being a child of a police officer. She vowed never to become an officer, but life's circumstances forced her to change her mind.
From there, she takes the reader on a roller-coaster ride from her days at the Academy to the day she resigned from the Chicago Police Department. Her depiction of the Academy made me wonder if this was fiction because I couldn't believe the brutal fashion in which the trainers handled future officers. A few of them left the Academy with permanent disabilities and no chance at a law enforcement career. She tells us how the rest of them made it through that grueling period, by banding together and forming a team. Being a team player is the most important skill in police work.
I felt like I was right there with her as she described her first day on the job with a slacker for a field trainer and how that trainer deserted her when she needed him to back her up. She tells us what it was like to kill a man and what that did to her soul. She tells us what it's like to see a mutilated baby and then have to be professional in dealing with his murdering mother. And, she tells us what it's like to have to go to the same neighborhoods to deal with the same people day after day. There are lots of heartbreaking stories in this book and some incredibly funny ones, too.
I found myself laughing out loud at the craziness and the stupidity of both the criminals and the corrupt officers. More often than not, however, I felt disgusted by the drug addicts and the political games of the department brass. Throughout this book, I wondered how she managed to keep her humor when faced with the pain, the terror, and the good ol' boy mentality that tried its best to keep her in the trenches. The end saddened me, but it was typical.
Armed & Dangerous stripped me of all my notions about police officers and what they do for a living. Gallo is a powerful writer, and I applaud her for having the courage to write this book. Throw away those police procedural novels. They pale against Gallo's book.

The No Spin Zone: Confrontations with the Powerful and Famous in America (Hardcover)
Bill O'Reilly is a definite personality, and it shows in his book, The No-Spin Zone. Along with his commentary on issues such as free speech, education, politics, and taxes, are the transcribed versions of his interviews with the famous and well known of America. I was surprised to find out that President Bush had interviewed with him during his campaign. No, I haven't seen many of The No-Spin Zone programs. In that interview, O'Reilly confronted Bush about his position on the death penalty, explaining ahead of time that politicians are given rehearsed answers to the most frequently asked questions. Bush was thrown off, thereby giving an honest answer instead of a rehearsed one. Then O'Reilly gives his opinion of the death penalty, suggesting that we send prisoners to an isolated facility in the Yukon for the rest of their lives with no cable, but a radio. He feels that this is a better deterrant than what we have now. It made me think.
For those who refused to interview with him, he attacked, albiet professionally. Jesse Jackson and Hillary Clinton were his favorite targets, along with Janet Reno. He gives us the real spin on what the government does with our tax dollars. It's enough to elevate your blood pressure. The politicians who did show up tried to dodge the questions and failed.
Then there is CBS and the media. O'Reilly does not like CBS due to their politics and methods of censorship. They didn't like him because of his brazen, no-nonsense style of reporting. Ah, well. He has his own show now. But he does give us a clear picture of how the media distorts the truth.
I enjoyed The No-Spin Zone on several levels. It was short and easy to read. His insights made me think. Sometimes I got angry or disgusted, especially where our taxes are concerned. Sometimes, I felt like he was trying to stab at the people he didn't like. He's got an attitude, but at least he's honest.

A Tight, Hair-raising Ride

This review is from:
A Winter Haunting (Hardcover)
I was thrilled when I saw Dan Simmons's new book, A Winter Haunting on Amazon. Until I saw the reviews, I had no idea it was a sequel to Summer of Night when I preordered it. That doesn't matter. This book can stand by itself, although you may get to know Dale Stewart better by reading the first book.
Dale is an interesting guy, to say the least. After a failed suicide attempt, he returns to Elm Haven to write a book about his long-dead best friend, Duane McBride and their pack of nerdy friends. This is a last-ditch effort to rebuild his broken life, most of which is his own fault. He moves into Duane's old house, which has ghosts of its own. Whether they are real or imagined is the reader's guess until the very end.
Simmons did a superb job in his depiction of an eerie town, its hostile citzens, and one whacked out main character. This book is a tight, hair-raising ride into terror. I hope Simmons will continue to write more horror stories because he is good. Highly recommended.

The Astronaut's Wife (Widescreen) (DVD)
Two astronauts lose contact with NASA for two full minutes during a routine repair operation on a satellite. What happened during those two minutes becomes the center focus of this movie. Spencer (played by Depp) and his partner return to Earth, but the partner dies and Spencer isn't quite the same. That isn't apparent at first until a former NASA employee tries to contact Jillian (played by Theron). Then the movie takes a sinister turn. Is Jillian crazy, or is she pregnant with alien twins?
I enjoyed the performance of Depp and Theron. They have a chemistry that I haven't seen between two actors in a long time. The special effects were good, but I had to turn up the volume to hear the actors' voices over the sound. I give this movie four stars because of the climax. Rather than give it away, I'll say that it didn't fit with the natural laws of science. Otherwise, I enjoyed the movie. It has a cliffhanger, which suggests a sequel.

Careers in Criminology (Paperback)
Careers in Criminology covers a wide spectrum of law enforcement careers. Each section lists the type of job, its specialties and hazards, the skills and education requirements needed, and the salary. In the back is a list of websites and organizations you can contact.
If you aren't sure which avenue to take, I suggest reading the book all the way through. It is filled with interesting facts and pertinent information that can help you attain your career. If you already have an idea of what your interests are, you can skip to the relevant chapter. Recommended.
The New Thought Police: Inside the Left's Assault on Free Speech and Free Minds

This review is from:
The New Thought Police: Inside the Left's Assault on Free Speech and Free Minds (Hardcover)
Tammy Bruce explains the difference between the old-fashioned Liberal and today's multiculturist liberal. There is quite a difference between the two. The old-fashioned Liberal believes in freedom of speech, equal rights, individuality, morals, and personal responsibility. The multiculturist society has a self-righteous attitude that believes in entitlements and very little responibility. To open your mouth and speak against them is to face public humiliation via verbal attacks, death threats, and ostracism. These people hate everything the original America stood for.
Bruce illustrates how the media plays a strong hand in steering people toward the multiculturist way of thinking. Her first example was Dr. Laura Schlessinger, who was forced to cancel her TV show because GLAAD accused her of bashing gays. Eminem didn't hear a peep from them or the media for bashing gays in his "songs". Bruce goes on to explain. Joan Garry, the leader of GLAAD, used to work for MTV. Her sponsor is Seagrams. Basically, if she had made the same stink with Eminem, she would have lost her sponsors. So, he is still bashing gays while Dr. Laura still preaches family values on her radio show.
Bruce explains how the media is responsible for a great deal of fear about racism and its impact on society. She points out that the majority of the rioters over Rodney King weren't black, but Hispanic and white. The media tried to portray the entire black community rioting in the streets when all you had to do was watch the news and see that it wasn't so. I saw plenty of opportunistic criminals carrying stolen TVs, and they weren't black.
I agreed with Bruce 100% where the O.J. Simpson case was concerned. I didn't get obsessed with the case like my mother-in-law did, but I saw the news coverage of him trying to flee and heard the 9-1-1 tapes of Nicole crying and asking for help. I knew he was a batterer who killed his ex-wife and her friend, but I also knew he was going to get away with it. Why? Because of the Rodney King case. Those two cases, and the media coverage they received, sent a terrible message to the victims of drunk drivers and batterers. The only justice Nicole Brown Simpson and her children received was the distruction of O.J.'s career. Thanks to Tammy Bruce, his scheduled TV appearance to "clear his name" was thwarted.
It doesn't stop there. Bruce attacks NOW, Knopf, Howard Stern, and certain media officials. NOW is not about feminism and women's rights. They are staunch protectors of the multiculturist movement, stifling opinions of the women they allegedly support and turning them into victims of said movement.
The only thing I didn't like was her stance and tactics concerning Knopf, which published American Psycho. I have never read American Psycho and decided to check out the reviews on Amazon. It received both good and bad, pointing out that its graphic violence isn't for everyone. I felt she used invasive tactics for censoring that book. That's what she did, regardless of whether she was trying to protect kids from pornography and violence. She not only made her stand with the publishing industry, but earned some leverage with the news media. That, I applauded.
The New Thought Police was a tightly written, well thought out piece of education. I enjoyed Ms. Bruce's witty if not sarcastic style as well as the wealth of information she gave to us concerning NOW and the real definition of a liberal. If you weren't aware of how stifled you were before reading this book, you will after you turn the last page. I recommend this book to anyone who values their own opinion and freedoms.
Hell to Pay: The Unfolding Story of Hillary Rodham Clinton

This review is from:
Hell to Pay: The Unfolding Story of Hillary Rodham Clinton (Paperback)
This was one of the most educational books I have read in my life. Olson writes a compelling story about Hillary Clinton, starting with her middle-class upbringing in suburban Illinois. Growing up with a house full of men, Hillary felt she had to excel at everything in order to win her father's approval, which she never seemed to get. This was the only time I felt any empathy for this woman.
We've all heard the blatherings about the Clintons' scandals via the media. But the media never came close to telling us the truth, especially concerning their dealings with the Chinese government, who now has possession of our nuclear secrets. Barbara Olson not only illustrates their involvement but gives an unsettling picture of how Hillary Rodham Clinton's mind works. She is a megalomaniac who wants nothing more than absolute power over the American people, especially our children. Olson also gives us the scoop about Whitewater, the Lewinsky fiasco, and scores of other calamaties and injustices that went on inside the White House during their double-term. Basically, the Clintons perfected the Nixonian technique for covering their tracks, destroying a countless number of lies both figuratively and literally.
I would have liked to have read what really happened to Vincent Foster, Ron Brown, and several other officials who met untimely deaths. Olson barely skimmed this issue, but told how Vince Foster was Hillary's lawyer and possible lover. I can understand why Olson couldn't touch that issue, given her position in the Justice Department. But she portrays the Clintons for who they really are, slick criminals who will use anyone and any means to secure their agenda.
I recommend this book to every American citizen, whether they were (or are still) pro-Clinton or not. Hell to Pay is loaded with facts that we cannot ignore.

The Human Condition with a Twist
Feb. 2 2002
This review is from:
The Corrections (Hardcover)
The majority of this 562-page novel is about the characters' individual lives. Franzen wrote this novel so well that I not only felt like I was walking in each character's shoes, but felt transported to St. Jude, New York City, and Lithuania.
The Corrections packs a humorous and realistic punch about life at the end of this century. He depicted the '90s parent very well in Gary, who tries to be the authority figure in his household and fails due to his insecurities. Denise is the Career Woman who doesn't know who she is or how to deal with life's emotional challenges. Chip starts out as a directionless sex fiend, a man I really started out despising. Out of the three, he surprised me with his growth. Enid and Alfred are the aging parents these adult children have to deal with.
I give this book four and a half stars for two reasons. Although the Lamberts' lives are interesting, I couldn't wait to get to the Christmas Dinner, which I expected to be darkly satirical. Instead, it was brutally realistic but not a total letdown. Still, I enjoyed it for what it was.
I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading about the human condition.

Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Feature
Push to couples seeking good humor
Shayla LaVeaux talks her husband, Kyle Stone, into not going to work so they can make love. He stays home, and they fuck. Suddenly all hell breaks loose. Dave Hardman in an alien costume runs into their bedroom, followed by Herschel Savage, Stephanie Swift, and Shanna McCullough. "What are you doing here?" Stone asks. There really isn't an answer, but what follow is one of the better comedies of the year, with several well-acted caricatures: the hapless husband (Stone), the pissy wife (LaVeaux), the demented neighbor (Savage) and several non-sex folk who knock on the door and either mooch beer or try to sell Stone cleaning products.
The other positive element is a pile of exceptional female physiques. Their front- and backsides are ripe and muscular, a pleasure to see. But without hot male equivalents to inspire the girls to the animal states we know and love, it's average heat at best.

Was Barack Obama suddenly so "shocked, shocked" to find out that modern day atrocities are going on around the world that he decided to do more about it?
That's how his critics interpreted this morning's speech at the Holocaust Memorial and Museum in observance of Yom HaShoah. The president announced an executive order authorizing new sanctions against Iran and Syria, as well as the creation of a first-ever Atrocities Prevention Board comprised of senior government officials, convening for the first time today. "Going forward, we'll strengthen our tools across the board and create new ones," said the president. That includes another first-ever: A National Intelligence Estimate on the risk of mass atrocities and genocide. The Treasury Department will block more money from abusive regimes and the military will take more steps to incorporate atrocity prevention into its planning while the State Department will "increase its ability to surge our diplomats and experts in a crisis," whatever that means.
Critics say this is just more bloated bureaucracy masquerading as action. "In the absence of the will of the president to act, more government infrastructure won't help," writes Commentary's Jonathan Tobin. "And given that the record of this administration has shown it to consider such issues to be among their lowest priorities, it's hard to see how this speech will change things."
The subtext of the speech does suggest that more could have ben done in the past, and that this new prevention committee will somehow serve to "uncover" persecution that is already in plain sight. The Republican Jewish Coalition asks what took so long.
"For President Obama to come forward today with what he calls a comprehensive strategy and new tools to prevent and respond to atrocities raises the question of why such a strategy was not brought forward much earlier in his term rather than now, nearly four years after he took office," said the RJC's Matt Brooks in a statement. He notes that "in une, 2009, opposition forces in Iran were brutally repressed, the election was stolen and civilians were murdered in the streets of Tehran and all the while the Obama administration did nothing."
Of course this brings to mind the Republican candidates' rap on Obama during their campaign as "appeasing" Iran and Syria and others -- which prompted Obama's 'ask Bin Laden' rejoinder -- while the Republicans were short in details on what they would have done differently.
The National Jewish Democratic Council naturally praised the address. "For those of us in the room, hearing the President of the United States commemorate the memory of those who were lost -- and turn the lessons of the Holocaust into a forward-thinking policy -- was both gratifying and humbling," said President and CEO David A. Harris. "The president's creation of the Atrocities Prevention Board and the related actions today -- including sanctions pointed at Syria and Iran -- are clear indications that the American Jewish community has an ally in President Obama when it comes to our work to ensure that 'never again' truly means never again."

Master Clegg and the principle of privilege
Nick and Miriam Clegg are tempted to send their son to a fee-paying school
With the yawning gap in achievement between state and private education, it is easy to see why Nick and Miriam Clegg are tempted to send their 11-year-old son to a fee-paying school.
After all, only last week it emerged that between them just four independent schools (including Mr Clegg's alma mater Westminster) and one elite sixth-form college sent more pupils to Oxford and Cambridge in 2007-09 than 2,000 state secondaries put together.
Meanwhile, a quarter of comprehensives consistently fail to produce a single A-level examinee with AAB grades in the rigorous subjects looked for by the 24 leading Russell Group universities.
Indeed, as chief inspector of schools Sir Michael Wilshaw put it so passionately at the weekend, the state system is seriously letting down bright children who get top marks in primary schools, only to fall victim to secondaries' low expectations.
But while Mr Clegg's agonising may be understandable, doesn't it reek of arrogance and hypocrisy to suggest that comprehensives and mixed-ability classes may be good enough for other people's children, but not for his own?
This is the man who declared last year that the inequality between private and state education was 'corrosive for our society and damaging to our economy'.
The Deputy Prime Minister is also quick to demand that universities should discriminate against applicants who enjoy the 'unfair and divisive' advantages of selective private education.
Yet now he speaks airily of conferring those very advantages on his son – without even, apparently, visiting the local comprehensive alternatives.
As Sir Michael suggests, Mr Clegg should learn lessons from the most successful independent and selective schools – and work to apply them to the state sector.
Or is this high priest of equality happy to reserve the best education for children whose parents can afford it?
What a shower!

As the UK braces itself for the arrival of tens of thousands of Bulgarians and Romanians from next year, ministers are working on a secret weapon to keep would-be migrants away.
They plan… wait for it… an advertising campaign to warn that Britain is cold and wet, and may not be as generous with welfare benefits as some expect.
Do they seriously believe this will deter arrivals from countries, well used to extreme weather, where the minimum wage is less than 80p an hour, compared with our £6.19?
Indeed, could there be a more desperate sign of our impotence to control our borders under EU rules?
The truth is that nothing short of strict quotas – almost certain to be ruled illegal by the European Court – can hope to prevent an influx that threatens to mock the Coalition's pledge to slash net immigration to tens of thousands.
With British jobs, housing, schools and other services already under intolerable strain, there couldn't be a clearer case for defying Brussels in the national interest.
The stupid party
Days after David Cameron delivers a fillip to his party with his promise of an EU referendum, backbenchers are caught plotting to decide who will replace him if he loses the next election.
Do you sometimes wonder whether to laugh or cry over the boundless vanity of ambitious politicians?
All that can be said with certainty is that the schemers are making their own election defeat a degree more likely.
Indeed, the Mail finds it impossible to improve on the verdict of one exasperated senior Conservative: 'Oh good. We're back to being the stupid party.'

Utah Jazz: Red-hot team is finally firing on all cylinders
Go back to last offseason, and the Jazz would've guessed they'd have more wins than 39 by now. But this is the style of basketball and the type of results they would've predicted they'd be displaying at this point of the season.
"You want to play the way you envision. It's not going to be like that way every night, but it's fun to be on a roll where you get it consistently each and every night because we went through stretches where we didn't get it each and every night," Mo Williams said. "It's fun to be on the other side where we can get consecutive wins and play good on consecutive nights."
Williams gets a chunk of the credit from his teammates and coach.
Four weeks after his return from thumb surgery, the Jazz's starting point guard is giving Utah the speed, swagger and scoring punch the team has so desperately needed from its floor general position.
The tri-captain has been the team's vocal leader all season, but he's scored 20 or more in three straight along with dishing out an average of 6.6 assists in Utah's last five wins.
Williams said part of that is because his thumb is continuing to improve. He changed his pregame and practice routine, going without his brace until game time. Once the games begin, he's more aggressive, from attacking and running the offense to shooting 3-pointers in the flow of the offense. It's added up to him finding his stride.
"I'm just playing. I'm not even thinking about it at all," he said. "Just letting the plays happen — just let my natural abilities happen."
The wins are happening as a result.
"Mo, you can tell he's back in his groove," Jefferson said. "He's playing like the way he want to play. He's scoring the ball. He's getting people involved and playing great defense in my opinion.
"It starts with him. Everybody else is just kind of jumping on his bandwagon and running with it."
The Western Conference's current player of the week deserves some kudos, too.
Big Al has picked up his usually consistent play, averaging 20.6 points on 55 percent shooting and 8.6 rebounds during the season-high winning streak.
Then there's Foye's sensational shooting from 3-point land, Hayward's all-around excellence, Marvin Williams' smooth transition to a reserve role, Favors picking up the slack for the injured Kanter in that backup big man position, occasional bursts of timely energy and scoring by Alec Burks, Jamaal Tinsley's steadier play at point guard, and a tightening of the rotation by Corbin that is paying off.
And to a person on the payroll, they'll credit a renewed defensive focus for boosting results.
It's all added up to adding some drama and excitement to the end of an otherwise frustrating season.
Even though it took 70 games to find, this balancing act has proven to drastically increase the optimism and hope levels in the locker room along with the team's spot in the standings.
"You look at the Baltimore Ravens. They started playing well at the right time and that got them the Super Bowl," Jefferson said. "To me, we're clicking and getting together right at the right time. We've still got seven more games to go and we've got to continue to play like that."
Especially that part about hitting the shots.

On Our Shelves Now
Graphic novel star Kazu Kibuishi creates a world of terrible, man-eating demons, a mechanical rabbit, a talking fox, a giant robot---and two ordinary children on a mission.
After the tragic death of their father, Emily and Navin move with their mother to the home of her deceased great-grandfather, but the strange house proves to be dangerous. Before long, a sinister creature lures the kids' mom through a door in the basement. Em and Navin, desperate not to lose her, follow her into an underground world inhabited by demons, robots, and talking animals.
Eventually, they enlist the help of a small mechanical rabbit named Miskit. Together with Miskit, they face the most terrifying monster of all, and Em finally has the chance to save someone she loves.
About the Author

"MESSINA" Top 5 Page for this destination Messina by balhannah
Messina Travel Guide: 130 reviews and 388 photos
We arrived at Messina in Sicily, via Cruise Ship.
Ours was one of the larger Ship's and that is why this was our Port,
smaller Cruise Ship's were able to anchor in the harbour at Taorima,
and passenger's be taken ashore by Tender.
Messina, on 1st sighting didn't do much for us, and as we walked the streets,
our view didn't change
We are on the Ship again, and cruising along the coast of Italy.
We are quite close to the coast, and are able to see the land and highways easily.
In the morning, we are in the port of CIVITAVECCHIA, so we can visit ROME
and the VATICAN CITY
- In a nutshell:Busy, crazy traffic, nothing special!

A California college professor who sequenced his own genome has had it analyzed -- and discovered he has a high risk of dropping dead of a sudden heart attack, as well as a high prostate cancer risk.
Can't lose weight on a low-fat diet? Maybe you need to cut carbs instead, and a new genetic test may point the way, maker Interleukin Genetics Inc recently reported.
In a surprise result that can help in the understanding of both aging and cancer, researchers working with an engineered type of stem cell said they reversed the aging process in a rare genetic disease.
A genetic peek deep into the heart of Africa confirms that Africans have more genetic diversity than Europeans or Asians and provides insights into how to live a long life despite disease and famine.
Women may think of men as primitive, but new research indicates that the Y chromosome -- the thing that makes a man male -- is evolving far faster than the rest of the human genetic code.
People with a gene linked to long life and good health are also less likely to develop Alzheimer's disease, United States (U.S.) researchers said on Tuesday.
Researchers have found four new genetic variants that increase the risk of contracting one of the major forms of leukemia, confirming that risk factors for the fatal blood cancer can be inherited.
Prolonged exposure to cocaine can cause permanent changes in the way genes are switched on and off in the brain, a finding that may lead to more effective treatments for many kinds of addiction, U.S. researchers said on Thursday.
At his first birthday, John Klor could not sit up on his own. A few months later, he was cruising like any healthy toddler -- thanks to a special diet that is treating the boy's mysterious disease.
Will a gene bring healthful blessings or the curse of disease? It may depend on whether it is inherited from mom or dad, researchers reported on Wednesday.

So, a million years ago I promised a tutorial for my tablet case. I did actually complete it and I even had it tested by five wonderful ladies. They sent me wonderful reports with info on their experiences with the tutorial. And then those reports just sat there. I've been so busy with work stuff (is it surprising that Easter is a busy time in the church?) and then I got sucked into the fun of Project Run & Play. So, I still haven't updated my original tutorial after the testing. However, I really want to get this tutorial up and out so here it is!
This tutorial is for a fabric tablet/e-reader case with removable boards so the case is completely washable.
It stands up at two heights so you can prop your device up on a table or counter.
And I have included a size table to fit just about any tablet/e-reader on the market.
******Download the complete tutorial here. Tablet Case Tutorial******
If you should have any questions while making your lovely case, please feel free to email me at sewinharmony (at) gmail (dot) com. I am always glad to help! I would also love to see your creations. If you make a case, please add your pictures to my Flickr Pool!
***UPDATE*** I have added a few new devices to this tutorial. I now have the measurements for the following devices:
Samsung Tab 10.1
Samsung Tab 7.0
Nook Color
Kindle Fire
Kindle Fire HD
Kindle Touch
Kindle Paperwhite
Lenovo IdeaTab
Pandigital Star
Asus Transformer 10.1
Nexus 7
****UPDATE AGAIN**** There are now so many devices on the market that I simply cannot keep up with all the requests for personalized measurements. However, I have created a handy-dandy Google Drive spreadsheet where you can input your own measurements to get the correct calculations for your own device. You can view the calculator here: Sew in Harmony Tablet Case Measurement Calculator.

- Sound Qualtiy

- Features
- About our rating system
The StereoMaker Plugin by Brainworx is a unique plugin as it takes a mono signal and changes it into a virtual stereo sound but all while maintaing the focus the original mono signal. It is for use on individual instruments within DAW music production to help instruments fit into mixes better.
The StereoMaker creates a virtual M/S (Mid/Side) recording from a mono signal. M/S recording involves two microphones, one in a cardioid pattern facing the sound source and the other in a bi-directional pattern facing to the sides. After some specific routing, the results are a full mono signal and an adjustable stereo signal. Using M/S will allow as much or as little stereo effect to be heard during the mixdown process, something that can't be done following the X-Y miking technique or the 3-1 miking rules.
The StereoMaker controls are as follows. There's a Tone knob that adjusts the frequency that is adjusted, higher settings for higher frequency sounds, lower settings for low frequency sounds. The High Damp is a high-frequency rolloff for the effected signal, The Mono-Freq knob adjust the frequency that which below sounds mono and above sounds stereo. The Stereo Expansion widens the signal. There's a Tilt and Pan that control whether the resulting sound feels like it's tilting to eiher side or if the sound should be panned to one side. There are buttons that solo the original sounds and the stereo blend for more fine adjustments. Lastly, there's an output gain knob and metering. The plugin comes with undo/redo features, four instant recallable presets and copy/past.
The plugin has a metallic black look with white knobs. All the writing is visible and it so are eight rack screws where the plugin looks to be in a equipment rack. The plugin isn't CPU hungry. I was able to run eight instances of the plugin simultaneously on stereo tracks about a 10% bump in CPU on a 2.3Ghz i5 Mac Mini.
The StereoMaker is a very good plugin. The plugin does a great job changing the mono signal into stereo without loosing that "mono" sound which is key for lead instruments like guitar or vocals. Many plugins that convert mono material to stereo makes adjusts the phase of the signal to give the effect but a loss from using that method is the focus of the sound. The StereoMaker keeps the focus and sound of the original and the stereo effect can widen the sound. This can make a clean guitar sound thicker and bigger than it was when it was really recorded. I also found that, if you output the signal to mono, the StereoMaker becomes a great tight sounding phaser for guitar or vocal.
This plugin by Brainworx might be the best stereo audio tool for widening any sound source. The key to it's great sound is the fact the original signal doesn't become weak and distant but stays full as the signal can be made wider. Using it on different instruments widened up the sound without sounding unnatural in any way or creating in sudden phase problems in the mix. The StereoMaker is exceptional at adding a bit of air to instruments making them a bit more open sounding. Using it on low frequency instruments is possible with the controls given. After a bit of adjustment I was able to obtain wider kick and bass guitar sounds while adding minimum to no artifacts.
The StereoMaker is a excellent tool for widening and thickening up the sounds of mono recordings. It helped individual sounds sources fit better in full mixes without losing the power of the original signal. It is a great plugin that mixing engineers should seriously check out.

The Cowboys will receive a visit from safety Brodney Pool, according to a source.
Pool played for the New York Jets the last two seasons and was credited with four quarterback hurries, three pass breakups and one interception last season.
Pool, however, played with Cowboys defensive coordinator Rob Ryan with the Cleveland Browns in the 2009 season. Under Ryan, Pool had a career-high four interceptions and also had 10 pass breakups.
A second-round pick from Oklahoma by the Browns, Pool is a native of Corpus Christi, Texas. If he signs, it could signal the end of Abram Elam's brief time with the Cowboys. He played one season with Dallas and wasn't offered a contract when the season was over.

The Dodgers have the third-best record in the National League and a 4 ½-game lead in the West division. Two players on the disabled list (Carl Crawford and Carlos Frias) are close to joining the 25-man roster. So is Hector Olivera. The farm system is stronger than it's been in years, and will soon yield some young major leaguers — if not an impact player at the trade deadline.
So, straight A's here, right?

Email Security Update: New Spam Quarantine Feature Launches 7/22/16
ITS will implement a new "spam quarantine" feature on Friday, July 22, 2016. This change will help keep spam and phishing messages out of your mailbox, better protecting the Middlebury College community from phishing attacks and other email-borne threats. The new quarantine feature will change how you manage messages identified as spam by the mail system. Spam email will now be placed in a separate quarantine area, rather than being directed to your Junk Email folder.
Important: All messages in your quarantine area should be treated with special caution as they are most likely harmful to you and others! Do not click any links in these messages or release them to your Inbox unless you are absolutely sure that the message is legitimate. Be particularly suspicious of messages asking you to update your account, reset your password, expand your email storage quota, etc. Remember, any message that asks for your password or username is not to be trusted. For more information about how to protect yourself from phishing attacks, please see go/phish.
Messages identified as spam will be stored in the Spam Quarantine for 15 days. If you have received suspect messages, Microsoft will send you a daily "Spam Notification" email message. The messages are sent from firstname.lastname@example.com, once per day.
You can check your Spam Quarantine at any time by logging into go/quarantine (or directly via https://admin.protection.outlook.com/quarantine).
If you are missing a time-critical message, check your Junk E-Mail folder first, then check the Spam Quarantine, via go/quarantine.
For more details on managing the spam with the Spam Quarantine, as well as tips on how to use the the Blocked Senders/Safe Senders tools to allow or block specific email message senders, please visit go/spam.
@MiddInfoSec: Information Security's 'Security Scout of the Month'
To help raise awareness about community efforts to prevent significant security issues, Middlebury Information Security has launched a 'Security Scout of the Month' award.
This month Information Security would like to recognize Amy Dale who promptly and accurately responded to potential malware activity by unplugging her computer and reaching out to the Help Desk for immediate assistance.
When asked, Amy shared this advice about computer security, "My previous work experience, particularly at AOL, helped prepare me to be more alert and aware of scams. A previous manager always said, "when in doubt, leave it out." In other words, when you're the least bit hesitant, then don't open/click/download, etc. "
This astute awareness and keen insight is why Amy is this month's 'Security Scout of the Month'.
We are excited to celebrate the hard work and security conscious efforts of our community. Please watch for the next 'Security Scout of the Month' and help us recognize these efforts.
If you would like to recognize an individual for their information security contributions or would like to raise an information security concern, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com.

Combinaison superbe - Penalty Bounedjah - ESS... by afrikfoot
Tunisian club Etoile Sportive du Sahel played Marseille in a friendly on Saturday night and they certainly made the most of their moment in the spotlight.
Losing 4-0 to the Ligue 1 giants, Etoile were awarded a penalty with six minutes remaining.
Rather than just bang the spot-kick home for a bog-standard consolation, they thought they would try something a bit more audacious. So audacious, in fact, that even Thierry Henry and Robert Pires once contrived to mess it up.

San Diego Comic-Con 2014: The biggest announcements from this year's convention
Denis Poroy, Invision
In a lot of ways, this year's San Diego Comic-Con was pretty tame in comparison to previous years. Some of the biggest movies currently in development, including "Star Wars: Episode VII" and Warner Bros. Harry Potter spinoffs, didn't even make appearances.
There also wasn't much in the way of huge announcements — no Benedict Cumberbatch as Dr. Strange, no new Marvel franchises and nothing from Sony about "Sinister Six," etc.
But that doesn't mean it was a total bust.
Here are the biggest reveals and announcements from this year's Comic-Con:
A 'King Kong' prequel
Legendary, the studio behind the recent spate of giant monster movies like "Pacific Rim" and "Godzilla," won this year's Comic-Con almost by default as the only studio to reveal a major new movie — one which also happens to involve giant monsters — the "King Kong" prequel "Skull Island."
The title, of course, refers to the mysterious jungle abode where Kong and all sorts of overgrown fauna were found in Universal's original 1933 movie.
"Previous works have touched on the island, but staying and exploring this mysterious and dangerous place offers Legendary the opportunity to take audiences deeper inside this rich world with a style and scope that parallels other Legendary productions," a press release (via Indie Wire) stated. "The film will be released on November 4, 2016."
No creative team was in place at the time of the announcement, but Legendary hasn't been sitting idle. According to Deadline, British writer-director Joe Cornish ("Attack the Block") is being courted to take the reins.
'Godzilla 2'
To celebrate the success of its big-budget Godzilla reboot, Legendary also officially announced "Godzilla 2" is in the works with Gareth Edwards once again directing after he wraps up work on one of Disney's as-yet-undisclosed "Star Wars" spinoffs, anyway.
For Godzilla fans, though, the exciting part came during a brief teaser that revealed some of the classic Toho monsters Godzilla will be facing off against next: Mothra, Rodan and Ghidorah.
But wait, there's more. With "Godzilla" and "Skull Island" both being produced by Legendary, this means there could be
a showdown between Godzilla and King Kong?
OK, this wasn't exactly announced, but it makes total sense given the fact that the King of Skull Island and the King of the Monsters will be under the same roof, so to speak.
With shared universes being all the rage these days, it would be strange if there haven't been conversations about this at Universal and Legendary.
Besides, it wouldn't be the first time the two kaiju squared off against each other.
Wonder Woman
Even though the other studios didn't drop any huge bombs at Hall H this year, Warner Bros. did trot out the stars of Zack Snyder's "Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice" to unveil the first footage from the movie.
In all of this, fans got their first look ever at Israeli actress Gal Gadot in full Amazonian costume as Wonder Woman.
Surprisingly enough, the look manages to be pretty traditional without being ridiculous.
Outside of "The Lego Movie," "Batman V. Superman" will mark Wonder Woman's big screen debut exactly 75 years after she first appeared in comics.

Bea, the general programming for BtGB is the daily WOD, which runs on a 28 day cycle of 4 weeks with 4 workouts per week on MTuThF.
You can follow it as posted or you do the static movements before hitting the daily WOD.
If you need any more information on this, PM me and I will go over what has been presented to the public on the GB forum without giving away seminar material. Of late, some of the daily WOD static work has been let out by the seminar but you'd have to dig through the forum and it's not stickied, I think.

OsirisOrion has just sent over some pics of his custom, Sweet Demon, for Tenacious Toys "Candy Coated Custom Show" ! Just by looking at this custom you can tell it's an OsirisOrion original. The colors are pleasantly overwhelming, and the peppermint candy in the center of the figure really ties it into the "Candy Coated" Theme.
I am loving this figure, and i am looking forward to other customs. This show is going to be pretty SWEET :).
