someone who is really really ugly, sometimes used in the phrase "boogest boay" (often abreviated to BB or double B e.g. " I'm going to have to give you the double B Pishy") meaning the ugliest person in the area at that time. "Boog" can also be used to describe an act being performed badly
Shut it ya boog!

Mets Should Avoid John Smoltz Like the Plague
By David Marine ,
Use your ← → (arrow) keys to browse more stories
According to Newsday's Ken Davidoff, the Mets main targets are Ben Sheets and John Smoltz.
No, I say. Stay away from Smoltz. Have we learned nothing from the Tom Glavine experiment? Or Julio Franco? All Braves players from the late 90's to early 2000's are pure Kryptonite. They're a plague. A curse. A voodoo spell on New York baseball. Nothing good can come from having them on the Mets.
Ignore my paranoia and just look at Smoltz's numbers since leaving the Braves. They're atrocious.His spell with Red Sox fell flat and his minimal time with the Cardinals was beyond disappointing.
Plus Smoltz is getting up there in age and is more prone to injury than what he once was. I don't see any value in adding Smoltz to the back of the bullpen. But that obviously doesn't sway the brilliant minds in the Mets front office.

Help on Function Returning a Char pointer.
The function below concatenates two strings and returns a character pointer for the concatenated string.
Code: C++
Could you kindly tell me what should be done to prevent that and display the correct value string ?
Re: Help on Function Returning a Char pointer.
Look at the last line of your code. You return the char pointer t, which points to the last cell of the concatenated string, because you have increased t with all those t++.
Correct code will be :

Glenn Beck was live on the radio today when the news broke that the Supreme Court had struck down a Texas law designed to limit access to legal abortion under the guise of protecting women's health. In response to the ruling, Beck's co-host Stu Burguiere lamented that Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito are the only two reliably conservative votes on the court at the moment and noted that Donald Trump is hoping to use this issue to win over conservative voters in November.
Beck, who doesn't think that Trump really has any chance of winning in November, said that it is a mistake for the Republicans who control the Senate to keep blocking President Obama's nomination of Merrick Garland to fill the seat left by the late Antonin Scalia.
"I personally think that it is a mistake for them not to give him an up or down vote," Beck said of Garland. "I think it is a mistake. And I also think that they did this for a reason, that they put somebody in who is somewhat acceptable and they did it because they could say, 'See, they're absolutely unreasonable.' And if Hillary gets in and there is a Democratic congress or Senate? Done! You think that they're going to get more reasonable than this guy?"
"I would pull the trigger," Beck stated, "because the Constitution says give them an up or down vote. That doesn't mean you accept them; it does mean give them an up or down vote. And just take that issue away from them."

An Alta couple was arrested Monday after a multi-county investigation into several area burglaries came to a close.
On March 3 the Buena Vista County Sheriff's Office investigated a burglary report of a residence northwest of Alta. It was learned that $14,440 of personal property was stolen.
A few days later deputies learned of a burglary to a vacant house within a half-mile of the first burglary.
Police were called to 205 West Sixth St. #7 after a report of a residential burglary.
Police met with the victim who told police he was sleeping in his apartment when he woke up to find that three people had forced into his residence and stole money off his kitchen table.
When the three suspects saw the victim, they fled from the apartment.

Photos: Pacquiao Training in Beast Mode Mega Gallery
Pound for pound titans MANNY PACQUIAO (55-5-2, 38 KOs), the lone congressional representative from the Sarangani Province in the Philippines, and defending world champion TIMOTHY BRADLEY (31-0, 12 KOs), of Palm Springs, Calif., will go mano a mano in their eagerly-anticipated WBO welterweight championship rematch on April 12th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. This will also be Pacquiao's first fight in the U.S. since 2012.
When Pacquiao and Bradley rumbled the first time, on June 9, 2012 at MGM Grand, Bradley's hand was raised via a controversial split decision, ending Pacquiao's welterweight title reign as well as his seven-year, 15-bout winning streak. Though both fighters claimed victory neither was satisfied. Destiny may have played a hand in their first battle but it will be survival of the fittest that determines the winner of this exciting rematch.
Promoted by Top Rank®, in association with MP Promotions and Tecate, remaining tickets for Pacquiao vs. Bradley 2 are priced at $1,000, $800, $600, $400, $250 and $150, not including applicable service charges.

to me that is a VERY important stat. even strength scoring is where you really make a difference. sure hudler has his flaws, but so does every single other potential replacement. i would love to see parise signed as his replacement. it would be sweet. but its not a likely scenario. so if it doesn't happen i would welcome hudler back at a moderate salary increase.

Cool Stuff: 'Logan's Run' Posters By Tim Doyle
Posted on Wednesday, September 14th, 2011 by Germain Lussier
Whether or not you've seen Michael Anderson's 1976 sci-fi film Logan's Run, you're going to be hearing a lot about it in the coming weeks. Initially the discussion will be about the proposed remake directed by Nicolas Winding Refn and starring Ryan Gosling because their first collaboration, Drive, hits theaters on Friday. Later, Logan's Run will be referenced when Andrew Niccol's In Time is released next month because both films share the similar narrative idea of a world where people only live to a certain age.
Then there's this brand new poster for the film by artist Tim Doyle that'll first premiere at a screening of the film in Australia and then appear online. Check out both the regular and variant editions after the break. Read More »

We're pleased to announce that our 2016 GIELGUD AWARD, to be presented in London's venerable Guildhall on Sunday, October 9, will be bestowed on Vanessa Redgrave, a legendary performer and political activist who has just completed a stirring performance as Queen Margaret in Rupert Goold's critically acclaimed Almeida Theatre production of Richard III, with Ralph Fiennes in the title role.
Last year's award ceremony occurred on Sunday, October 18, when the Shakespeare Guild took part in another festive UK Theatre Awards luncheon, repairing to one of London's most historic settings to honor Dame Eileen Atkins with its 2015 Gielgud Award for Excellence in the Dramatic Arts. Dame Eileen is one of the most versatile artists in her profession, with distinguished credits as a scriptwriter to match her many gifts as an acclaimed performer. For details about a gathering that proved deeply moving, see the stories in "What's On Stage" and in BBC News.
Presenting our 2015 trophy was the Guild's 2008 honoree, Sir Patrick Stewart, and he shared congratulatory messages to Dame Eileen from three previous Gielgud laureates (Zoe Caldwell, Dame Judi Dench, and Sir Ian McKellen), as well as from RSC artistic director Gregory Doran. In response Dame Eileen emphasized how much it meant to her to receive a award in Sir John's name. After talking about how challenging it had been for an aspiring young actress to get noticed, she shared an amusing anecdote about her first stage role in Stratford-upon-Avon, in a non-speaking part during a 1957 Peter Brook "Tempest" in which Gielgud portrayed Prospero. Recalling that show a few years later, Sir John confided to Miss Atkins that the costume she'd worn had made her resemble "a pregnant penguin." Click here for a detailed, illustrated account of the event.
Fittingly, our 2015 festivities occurred one day after the opening preview of a critically acclaimed Garrick Theatre production of "The Winter's Tale" that was graced by our 1999 Gielgud recipient, Dame Judi Dench. What's more, it starred and was produced and directed by Sir Kenneth Branagh, another Gielgud laureate whom Dame Judi helped the Guild honor in January 2000. For a recent reminder of that occasion, see "Afternoon Tea," a Maryland Public Television attraction hosted by Heather Sanderson.
The Gielgud Award dates back to an April 1994 reception at the FOLGER SHAKESPEARE LIBRARY on Capitol Hill, a gathering that featured remarks by Robert MacNeil, Tony Randall, and Susan Stamberg. On that occasion the SHAKESPEARE GUILD established a new award that would preserve the heritage of Sir John Gielgud and pay tribute to the actors, directors, producers, and writers who are doing the most to perpetuate his legacy and that of the poet whose work he did so much to convey to succeeding generations.
The GUILD returned to the Folger in 1996 to bestow its inaugural GIELGUD AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE IN THE DRAMATIC ARTS on Sir Ian McKellen. It remained in that setting for salutes to Sir Derek Jacobi in 1997 and Zoe Caldwell in 1998. In 1999 the GUILD held its first GIELGUD event in New York, honoring Dame Judi Dench at Broadway's BARRYMORE THEATRE. In 2000 the GUILD crossed the Atlantic for a toast to Kenneth Branagh in London's historic MIDDLE TEMPLE HALL. The GUILD repaired to the U.K. once more in 2004, joining the ROYAL SHAKESPEARE COMPANY and the ROYAL ACADEMY OF DRAMATIC ART for a GIELGUD CENTENARY GALA at the West End theatre that had been renamed for Sir John a decade earlier. More recent GIELGUD festivities have placed the spotlight on Kevin Kline (in 2002 at LINCOLN CENTER in Manhattan), Lynn Redgrave (in 2003 at the NATIONAL ARTS CLUB in New York), Christopher Plummer (in 2006 at the NAC), Michael Kahn (in 2007 at the BRITISH EMBASSY in Washington), Patrick Stewart (in 2008 at the NAC in New York), and F. Murray Abraham (in 2010 at the NAC). On Sunday, October 19, 2014, the Guild presented a posthumous award to Sir Donald Sinden as part of a UK Theatre Awards Guildhall ceremony at which Sir Donald's son, producer Marc Sinden, accepted the trophy from its designer, actor and visual artist Clive Francis.

|Liberty X singles chronology
"Song 4 Lovers" is a song by British pop band Liberty X, released as the lead single from their third studio album, X. The single was released on 26 September 2005. The song features uncredited vocals from American rapper and member of Run-D.M.C., Rev Run. It was the band's first and only gospel-orientated song, and was produced by band member Tony Lundon. The single peaked at No. 5 on the UK Singles Chart, becoming the band's highest charting single from the album.
The decision to feature Rev Run (Joseph Simmons), of the rap group Run DMC, was made by band member Tony Lundon, who produced the track whilst the band were recording their third studio album for the V2 Records label, which was later scrapped due to a dispute between the band and their management. The single was quickly picked up by Unique Corp, who chose to release it as an attempt to create a new direction for the band. The single was also successful in Australia, where it received an exclusive release on 3 October 2005.
Music video[edit]
The music video for the track was filmed in Stockholm, Sweden and in New York City, United States,[citation needed] and was directed by Bill Schacht for Aestheticom. The video features the band performing with a gospel choir inside a church, as well as on the rooftop of a skyline building, intercut with scenes of Rev. Run performing his vocals to a group of youths on the streets of New York, as well as following the story of a woman who goes into labour whilst she is asleep. The video reached No. 2 on The Box in the United Kingdom, and No. 4 on MTV, with heavy airplay on all of the major music channels for over three months after its premiere. The video features on the physical version of the single, as well as appearing on the bonus DVD issued with X in Australia.

This review is from: SAMSUNG GT-B9150ZKYXAR 1TB Home Sync Cloud Network Storage
Pros: Yes it has a 1T drive, does WiFi, even streams movies to your phone.
Cons: The interface is inadequate, unwieldy and counterintuitive. First thing I ran to my PC to look up a firmware upgrade, because this couldn't be the final product. No luck. The interface is so persnickety that I was lucky if I could do the right thing twice. The phone-app remote conceals much and reveals little.
Other Thoughts: In hardware, it is sleek and solid. I think it only lacks a reverse USB, to plug into a PC or laptop, and a separate remote so that I am not a total slave to my phone.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: SAMSUNG GT-B9150ZKYXAR 1TB Home Sync Cloud Network Storage
Pros: Plays many formats in HQ, WiFis content from PC and USB, It does just about everything that it is touted to do (if you can get it to do it).
Cons: The interface is almost impossible to maneuver. The cellphone remote app is oversimplified, lacks precision and features. If you get it to do what you want, you'll be very lucky if you get it to do it twice.
Other Thoughts: The first time I tried to run it, I went running back to the PC to see if Samsung had posted any new firmware. No such luck. The Homesync Interface was designed by an insular committee with little or no field testing. If you want a TV HDD, get a WD Hub. If you want a WiFi TV streamer from PC, get a WD Live. If you want phone backup, get Wondershare. If you want a new and frustrating hobby, get a Homesync.READ FULL REVIEW

Wednesday, April 2, 2014
With a crowd of financial supporters to the James F. Dean Community Theatre Exterior Renovation Project, Mayor Bill Collins cut the ribbon to the new marquee. Immediately following, the lights were officially turned on. Mayor Collins spoke briefly about the importance of this organization to the community and how he had a small part in the very first play The Flowertown Players did back in 1976.
Renovating the exterior of the theatre has been in process for more than three years. Not only does the building welcome a newly designed marquee, but a fresh coat of paint trimmed in tuxedo with a stage door red entranceway and underside of the marquee. The two forme square windows on the second floor will have permanently fixed shutters similar to the ones in the 1935 design.
The theatre could not have accomplished these improvements without the support of the Mayor and Town Council, the Junior Service League, 2012 Annual Gift Campaign, private donations, and the support of businesses and citizens.
The lights came on in time to welcome the newest production at the theater, Catfish Moon a southernfried comedy about three friends and the trials and tribulations of life.

i RREEAALLY want this game...
im the don in it
i RREEAALLY want this game...
yes im goingto pick it up today
ok ive registered with EA and got this cheat. Can other people try to see if they get something different. Cheers
To unlock film clips, press the following buttons in sequence at the Main menu: 2 button, minus button, 2 button, minus button, minus button, D-pad up.
and ive justgot this from when i took the survey
When you think youre ready for the challenge, take on a compound. The Tattaglias in north east Brooklyn might be the weakest family in New York, but that doesnt mean they are going to let you walk right in. Bring some bombs along and blow up the support pillars in the basements. You may start a mob war, but if youre successful youll have a new safe house with a bunch of guards.
hope this helps everyone

You could shoot a rival gang member in the head but this draws unnecessary attention to yourself - other rival members will run to help their fallen comrades. plus you only get between 20 and 50 reputation points per kill.Originally Posted by San Dimas
best way is to either beat them up or choke them to death but make sure that no other rival gang members can see. beating them up or choking them will give you between 140 and 300 reputation points. even more if you perform an execution move.
Its a silent kill and you can run up an alley, kill the lonely rival gang member and run out again. they respawn so you can run all over Little Italy killing rival gang members that are hidden without any trouble.
Do bear in mind though that your vendetta will raise up for each kill but as long as you keep it at peaceful then you will be ok. Also, if you leave a family alone then the vendetta within that family will slowly drop.
NOTE: that taking over businesses and rackets without killing rival gang members will not cause the vendetta levels to rise. There are some business tho where you do have to kill the rival members - the nightclub in Little Italy is one. You can not extort the owner without trouble as there are rival members stood right next to her guess its time for some police protection and start a fight outside.
BTW, I did my first bank job last night - well, I say I did it. I was cruising along and saw a load of police cars outside a bank with cops with guns out. turns out a rival family had done over the bank and they were stood outside with money bags in hand. I bribed a couple of cops which started a gun shoot. i took cover and waited for the bullets to stop firing:
rival gang members dead: 3
rival gang members killed by me: 0
total bullets fired by me: 0
total vendetta increased: 0
total heat increased: 0
total money earned from swiping the money bags from the dead guys bodies: priceless

The iPod + iPhone Year in Review 2007
Click Below to Read the Rest of This Article:
We ended our 2006 iPod Year in Review with some predictions: 2007 would be the year when the 100 millionth iPod was sold, iTunes Store sales would grow in the billions rather than millions, and the year would start with exciting new hardware and accessory releases. We also called out two possible iPhone release scenarios, suggested that Apple TV (then iTV) would need some help at its $299 price point, and discussed good and bad potential outcomes for iPod and accessory development.
With less than two weeks remaining in 2007, we can say with mixed emotions that this has been an eventful year, and one that saw most of last year's predictions—good and bad—come true. For Apple, this was another year of soaring iPod sales, continued growth of the iTunes Store's market share, and the release of new devices that broadened the company's presence in homes and pockets across the world. Most impressively, Apple succeeded in stunning the entire cellular phone industry with the iPhone, despite its complete lack of prior experience in designing or selling phone equipment. And the company's retail stores became more numerous and yet more crowded than ever, expanding further overseas and offering even more products online.
But it was also a year that brought unusually long waits and surprising disappointments to Apple fans, as the company broke with past traditions, pre-announcing two of its biggest products months in advance, and releasing others with bugs and other undisclosed limitations that crippled their appeal. More jolting were moves by Apple's audio and video content partners to exit or cut support for the iTunes Store, and positive reviews for new Microsoft media players and iTunes competitors. A picture that once looked ever-increasingly rosy had once again become muddled with uncertainty.
Once again, we've covered the key factual events of the year in an extended iPod history feature (A Brief History of iPod) on page 116 of our 2008 iPod + iPhone Buyers' Guide; instead, this Year in Review takes a more opinionated look at what went right and wrong over the past 12 months, finishing with a brief look ahead.

As always, a nice write up! I hope Apple can work out some of the kinks in quality control, especially when it came to the touch's screen and bugs in iTunes.
Still, I'm looking forward to see what happens in 2008!

Rumors abound that Apple is trying to trademark the phrase "Triple Play". Why, would they do that? Beginning next month, the iTunes Store will finally offer 720p HD content. That one file will play on your Mac or PC, your Apple TV, and yes, even the latest generation of iPods! The MPAA required Apple to have some sort of authentication chip since iPods could output a 480p signal. With a future firmware update, that output will jump to 720p.

I want to see iTunes change to a database subsystem based on SQL. I want performance. When it takes a second or two to simply register a click in iTunes, the underpinnings are badly designed. It's not really a global media server and I think people will want to be able to access it at the same time from multiple devices.
I'm a huge fan of Apple TV and would be heartbroken if Apple gave up on it, as I've invested thousands of hours in crafting my iTunes library for use with it. I'd like to see it gain an optical drive.

Posted by ESPN.com's Kevin Seifert
It probably wasn't a coincidence that newcomer Frank Omiyale was working at right tackle Wednesday, as noted by Vaughn McClure of the Chicago Tribune. Bears coach Lovie Smith said earlier this week that Omiyale would work exclusively at left guard during this week's mandatory minicamp, but that was before free agent John St. Clair signed with Cleveland and left the Bears without a veteran option to replace the retired John Tait.
As Brad Biggs of the Chicago Sun-Times points out, the Bears needed to find a long-term replacement for Tait whether or not St. Clair returned. But St. Clair's departure effectively eliminates the Bears' flexibility in dealing with Tait's retirement. They had hoped to upgrade at left guard with Omiyale while having St. Clair hold down right tackle, at least in the short-term. Now, 2008 starter Josh Beekman will have to man left guard for the time being.
At this point, the best hope for having Omiyale remain at left guard is if the Bears draft a right tackle and start him immediately. There are a few free agent options, but the market is starting to move now and one candidate -- Pittsburgh free agent Marvel Smith -- visited San Francisco on Wednesday.
Had St. Clair returned, the Bears could have taken their time with the right tackle transition. Now, there is some urgency.

Hockey coach checks leukemia
Tony Navarre could say thank you 100, 1,000, even one million times, and it still wouldn't capture the extent of his gratitude.
Nonetheless, the 31-year-old special education teacher by day, hockey coach whenever ice is available and leukemia survivor 24-7 wrote a letter to the person who saved his life. A teacher at Homestead translated it into German, and Navarre dropped it in the mail.
So what do you say to someone who saved your life?
"First was thanks," Navarre said. "It was incredible that they were willing to do that for someone else.
"I said it's given me the opportunity to see my daughter grow up. I have a 2½ -year-old (Adeline) and every time I look at her it's like I wouldn't be here without this person that I don't know."
Better yet, what do you do to show your appreciation for that second chance at life? In Navarre's case, you pay the favor forward.
The Homestead coach writes the first check this weekend with a bone-marrow drive from 4-8:30 p.m. Saturday at the Ozaukee Ice Center. The drive is held in conjunction with the North Shore hockey tournament, a six-day event that will donate part of its proceeds to the National Donor Program "Be the Match" registry.
Navarre has been cancer free for almost 14 months.
"This is just one of the ways we hope we can give back, try to get more people in the registry," he said. "Spread the word. It's just one of those things. The transplant is such an amazing process and there are so many people that might have that match out there, but they're not on the registry."
Two years ago, cancer was the furthest thing from Navarre's mind, though the signs were there. While skating as an assistant coach at Homestead, he'd get really tired, but he thought he was just out of shape or getting old. His bouts with flu and colds never seemed to completely end. His exhaustion grew worse.
Navarre visited his doctor after the season. He was told he had asthma. He was told he had pneumonia. Finally a blood test revealed the real problem.
"I got a call at school the following day and the guy said, 'You have to leave right now,' " he said. "Talk to your wife, pick up your child, but you need to go to the emergency room and check yourself in. We're pretty sure you have leukemia."
"You hear that on the phone and you're like 'Oh, my God. What does this mean?' "
The five-year survival rate for leukemia is about 57%, according to the leukemia and lymphoma society website.
Navarre was diagnosed March 16, 2011. Five days later he responded poorly to initial treatment, which made it even tougher for him to breathe. His lungs had failed and Navarre and his wife, Molly, agreed that he'd undergo a medically induced coma so his doctors could fix them.
The coma was supposed to last three or four days. It went 27, according to Navarre, who admits he is fuzzy on some of the details. Regardless, it was a long time before doctors could pull him out of the coma.
And when he awoke, he couldn't move, couldn't talk and couldn't remember what happened.
"I thought I had three kids. I knew I had Adeline, but I thought I had two other kids," he said. "I thought I was in Florida. I knew who my wife was, but it was like all these strange things had occurred in dreams while I was in this coma."
At its low point, Navarre's weight dropped from 215 pounds to 129. His heart raced to 180 beats per minute from just standing up. He needed to carry oxygen with him around the house. The climb up and down the stairs each day was brutal.
While he was laid up, the Homestead community stepped up. The hockey team took care of the spring cleaning. It and the soccer team handled the yard work.
"They were incredible," he said.
Navarre, meanwhile, underwent chemotherapy and regained enough strength to undergo the bone marrow transplant in December. The surgery was a success and by March of last year Navarre was back at work.
Pretty soon he was back on the ice, too, filling the recently vacated head-coaching position. To hear him tell it, he is living a dream, a dream that wouldn't have been possible without that anonymous individual from Germany.
Nothing would please him more than having someone like that come from the bone-marrow drive Saturday. Getting added to the registry takes only a few minutes and is painless. You never know what difference it will make.
"From what (my nurses) told me, I think I beat the odds pretty good," Navarre said. "They said they can't believe I am where I am and so that is awesome to think of and scary at the same time."

I've never heard of Connie Willis, the author the Doomsday Book, which won both the Hugo and Nebula awards for best science fiction book of the year in 1992. Apparently, she's quite successful, having won six Nebula awards (more than any other science fiction writer) and six Hugo awards, yet again, I've never heard of her, nor have I ever seen any of her books. I happened upon this book in a used bookstore, selling for a nickel, and I think that pretty much says it all. I don't know how the hell she has won all these awards for books I've never heard of, and I've been reading science fiction since the early 1970s and know most of the prominent authors – just about all of them, in fact – but I'm almost willing to say she's faking this bio, that her publisher is faking this bio, that there's no way in hell she's won all of these awards, because no one I know as EVER HEARD OF HER and you NEVER SEE ANY OF HER BOOKS IN A FUCKING BOOKSTORE!!!
So, this book. It's about time travel. Specifically about a young history student at some made up college in England (I guess it's a college, although the student must be a dwarf, because she's only a meter and a half tall), who gets a tutor from another college to teach her about the Middle Ages because that is where she wants to travel to, specifically England, 1320. She learns all sorts of things, languages, spinning, riding, cooking, dressing oneself, etc., and after awhile, she feels she's ready and her academic advisor believes she is too. The trouble is, her tutor, Mr. Dunwoody, doesn't think she's ready at all and thinks this is a huge mistake and furthermore thinks her academic advisor is an idiot who is pushing things too quickly, etc., while the student, one "Kivrin," is champing at the bit, knowing she's ready. And off she goes. And Dunwoody frets. And worries. And talks about it – incessantly. As in that's all he talks about to anyone. And he complains – that she's in danger, that she shouldn't have gone, that she might not have gone to the right year, the right location, that anything could have gone wrong, and … well, you get the picture.
Meanwhile, Kivrin DOESN'T wind up in 1320. She apparently winds up in 1348, the year the Black Plague started and she finds herself very, very sick. And nothing is as she prepared for it. Everyone is wrong. Her clothes are wrong. Her name is wrong. Her cover story is wrong. Her language is wrong, as no one can understand her, and she can't understand them. Her built-in translator doesn't work. And she must go back and find the drop zone, so she can go home. She says this over and over again to everyone she meets. She must find the drop zone, she must go back to the drop zone, where's the bloody drop zone? She also thinks about Dunwoody – a lot. Mr. Dunwoody was right about this, right about that, he's probably not worrying about me, he probably is worrying about me, come save me Mr. Dunwoody.
I've never read a book where two characters, especially characters separated presumably by some 40 years, obsess so damn much over each other, repeatedly, over and over, four, five, six times a page. It's fucking annoying as hell! I made it to page 202 out of 578 pages and decided if I read about the damn drop zone one more time and if I have to read about Dunwoody freaking out about Kivrin and Kivrin thinking over and over again about Dunwoody, I'd go psychotic and then no one could hold me responsible for the evil things that I would do. Rather than have that drastic outcome, I decided to stop. Holy shit, what an annoying book! I had read some one and two star reviews that commented about the damned repeating crap that goes on in this book, but I really wasn't prepared for this idiocy. Willis could have cut out the repeating and shaved half the page count off the book and actually possibly made it readable. I don't know how the book has a 4+ rating, because I think it's utter rubbish. And the tech who sends Kivrin through to the 1300s collapses before he can provide Dunwoody and the others with crucial information and all he does, apparently, throughout the entire book, is raise his head up from his bed and remark that something terrible happened. Well, no shit asshole! Why don't you tell someone something sometime some year, you jerk? Quit whining and be a man! Geez, what a pansy. Crappy book. No more than one star and most certainly not recommended under any circumstance.
James Dunworthy, a faculty member of the Oxford History Department, enters a viewing chamber where his friend, Mary Ahrens, is watching the preparations for sending a historian named Kivrin to 1320. The policy has been not to send historians to the medieval period because of the danger to the historian, but the head of the department, Mr. Basingame, is out of town and has left a faculty member named Gilchrist in charge. Gilchrist has overridden the policy to allow Kivrin to go.
As soon as she is through the net, Dunworthy and Mary go to a nearby pub to wait for Badri, the tech in charge of the drop, to get a definite fix on Kivrin's location so she can be picked up in two weeks. Dunworthy admits to being very worried because drops to such distant times have not been attempted. While Mary is reassuring him, Badri rushes in, mutters about a problem and rushes back out with Dunworthy and Mary in pursuit. At the lab, Badri says that he has a fix on Kivrin's location but says again that there's a problem, then faints over the console. Mary, a physician, calls for medical transport and Dunworthy travels to the hospital with Badri. There, it's determined that Badri has a virus and the entire team is quarantined for a period of time. When a second case is reported, the entire city is locked down in quarantine status and the team released with orders to return the following day.
Meanwhile, Kivrin arrives and decides she's at the correct time of year but that there's nothing to definitively say she's in 1320 and realizes she has arrived a short distance from the road onto which she'd expected to be dropped. She begins trying to move her possessions, including a wagon, to the road but soon finds she's feeling ill. She passes out and the next days pass in a delirium of fever and pain. When she wakes, she feigns amnesia and quickly becomes fond of two little girls in the household. She knows there's some problem, but days pass before she figures out that the family has come to this remote village in an effort to escape the plague. Kivrin only then learns that she's missed the target by years and is landed in the middle of the Black Death plague of 1348.
Meanwhile, the plague is sweeping the present and Dunworthy is only one of hundreds who fall ill. Like in the 1300s, the victims blame a great many things for the illnesses until it's finally discovered that the virus originated at an archaeological dig of a church burial ground from the 1300s. Gilchrist, in reaction to public demand, shuts down the time travel lab, and Dunworthy knows that Kivrin is now stranded in the 1300s. With the encouragement of Mary's great-nephew, a young boy named Colin, Dunworthy rounds up a team to mount a rescue mission. The new drop is successful, and Dunworthy locates Kivrin, though not in time to save Kivrin's own nightmarish days of nursing the dozens of residents of the village and seeing them all die. Having been inoculated against the virus before her trip through the net, Kivrin is the sole survivor. As she, Dunworthy and Colin prepare to step back into the year 2054, Kivrin says that she is still glad she came because she alone can give witness to the lives of those who died.
The kind of book I tend to DIVE into and only surface from occasionally. I read it in two days. I couldn't put it down....high praise.
It was very good no doubt, but on the other hand, emotionally draining. After reading Outlander last year, I was looking for a good time travel (Outlander I did not find satisfactory in that regard), and I was not disappointed this time. It's my first Connie Willis book, and not quite what I expected to find - I had a vague idea that she also wrote To Say Nothing of the Dog, which sounded like a funny book, and I wrongly assumed that all of her books would be in that vein.... big big mistake. I got myself in the middle of 2 epidemics - 1 in the book's present time and one in 14th century Europe (yes, the plague...)
I was browsing some reviews to see what other people thought of this book, and it's interesting how they either absolutely loved it or they very much hated it. It's not a book you forget when you put down or feel indifferent about. Some complaints were related to the fact that the first part is monotonous and repetitive. Indeed the characters seem to go round and round and round, they are having their little obsessions and doing the same things over and over again - to me this seemed almost hypnotic, it was like pulling you into the rhythm of the characters, like a spider weaving its web around you... And then all hell breaks loose... It was strange that having characters dropping like flies every other page, in the end it was the cow that nobody cared to milk that finally broke my heart...
All in all, it is an admirable book, but I do not imagine I would ever want to read it a second time.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0553562738, Mass Market Paperback)Connie Willis labored five years on this story of a history student in 2048 who is transported to an English village in the 14th century. The student arrives mistakenly on the eve of the onset of the Black Plague. Her dealings with a family of "contemps" in 1348 and with her historian cohorts lead to complications as the book unfolds into a surprisingly dark, deep conclusion. The book, which won Hugo and Nebula Awards, draws upon Willis' understanding of the universalities of human nature to explore the ageless issues of evil, suffering and the indomitable will of the human spirit.
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:23:05 -0400)
A grim story of a 21st century academic marooned in a 14th century English village being ravaged by the Black Death. Willis' story is the greatest post-modern time travel story of them all, a novel that combines a genre work with all the required components and a tour de force piece of storytelling.… (more)

Speculation about the future of DeMarcus Cousins is mounting after yesterday's news that the Kings have suspended him indefinitely following his run-in Friday night with Kings coach Keith Smart. The Kings are becoming increasingly concerned about Cousins, as Jason Jones of the Sacramento Bee tweets, and the team reportedly isn't completely closed off to the idea of trading him. Teammates feel as though Cousins has not matured into the better communicator he has talked about becoming, Jones reports, adding that many of them have passed the ball to Cousins during games simply because they haven't wanted to endure one of his tirades if he feels he's being overlooked...

Product Details
Built to last.
The Westcott softbox is rated one of the best in the industry for high-quality components and rugged design. The durable shell and double layer heat-shield fabric offer heat resistance up to 500 watts.
Solid steel assembly rods.
Soft box rods are designed to flex and are constructed from solid steel.
Heat vents.
Tent-style heat vents allow for additional ventilation when used with hot lights. However, the heat vents are not required to be used when using hot lights. They are only optional as the fabric shell is designed to withstand the rated maximum wattage. (500W Maximum)
Durable corners.
The weakest area of a softbox are the corners where the rods are placed. Therefore, Westcott provides a double layer of loop tape over this section to protect against softbox rods protruding through the fabric.
Five-year warranty.
We are so confident in the construction of our Pro Signature softboxes, we back them with a five-year warranty.
Removable inner baffle.
The removable full stop inner baffle helps to soften and spread the light when used in conjunction with strobes and hot lights. (Note: When using fluorescents, we recommend this inner baffle is completely removed. Due to the diffuse nature of the fluorescent lamp itself, it is not needed to achieve even and diffused lighting and many times can flatten the light too much.
Removable outer diffusion.
A wide 2" layer of loop tape allows the front diffusion panel to either be recessed in for more direction and control or placed flush with the edge of the softbox for a wider lighter spread. In addition, this wide loop tape area provides for the attachment of accessories such as egg-crate grids.
Attach grids.
Egg-crate grids can easily be attached to the softbox using the 2" loop tape.
Included carry case.
Each softbox includes a carry case with handle strap.
Perfect paired.
When used with a Westcott Spiderlite series head no adapter ring is needed, saving you time and money.
