"Great service at GP surgery"
About: Greater Manchester Greater Manchester
Posted by Julsy3 (as ),
This story has been posted by Healthwatch Tameside on behalf of a member of the public who asked not to have their name published. They said…
This gentleman attends King Street Surgery in Dukinfield and praises them highly. They operate an open surgery every weekday from 8. 30am to 10. 00am arrival times. If a patient books an appointment they are always seen within 2-3 days. He said all GP practices could do the same.

OK, guys, here's one for ya. Several skins tested. Naturally, I can't test them all.
I load a WB, any WB, all is well. I reboot, and come back to double start buttons. I get the skins button, and the default orb. And only on the primary monitor.
I reinstalled WindowBlinds to no avail. DisplayFusion installed, but disabled.
WindowBlinds 7.98
Windows 7 64 bit
P.S. Before I'm asked, I can't run the latest version of WB8 due to transparent taskbars with DisplayFusion.
OK, tried WB 8, latest version, no help. Lost secondary taskbars.
Reverted to WB 8 (7.98) and problem still exists.
Reverted back to last full version of DisplayFusion to no avail. Didn't expect anything there since it's only affecting the primary taskbar.
This just started over the past week, I'm stumped.
Ticket time, I guess.
I just last week lost all my icons on my taskbar, pages rerouted... evil. I used Kapersky Virus Removal Tool, Hitman Pro 3, cleaned, cleared everything and all the rest.... boy it's gone.
System restore or explorer.exe virus... apparently.
We have contacted DisplayFusion with what needs to happen. No need for a ticket.

Ooops, too late...lol. Ok, thanks! You guys are on the ball!!
We'll take a look see in any case. Thanks.
I see there is a new Beta out for WB, awesome!
BTW, I ran your support tool and attached logs.
Still not fixed. Bummer....
That green flag looks familiar?
Is anyone else seeing this?
I think I have solved this mystery. Hyperdesk.
Uninstalled it. Seems to have worked.
Isn't it always another program, other than the one when we think, that is the root of the problem.
Glad to see you worked it out Jim.
Thanks John! I hope I have. It has "seemed" fixed a few times, only to show it's butt...on again.
People still use Hyperdesk?
No, just Jim.
Wiz, kiss it...lol. Not on the left, not on the right...but right down the middle...
Zubaz, I think a very few people still use Hyperdesk, but maybe it isn't a great idea on a rig with WindowBlinds installed. WindowBlinds is my first love, even more than
But I have a few Hypers I bought way back, thought I'd try them.
They work well on a VM where I don't use WB. But I have lurnt muh lesson.
I have converted a few into WB skins. I can just use them via WB.
Thanks for all your help. Stardock Support is a great team!
i get this happening all the time. after a reboot, double start buttons, been happening for ages. I just re apply the theme and it's fixed. Annoying yes, but no big deal. nice if it was fixed though
Edit: I don't have hyperdesk installed or display fusion. never have. only WB8, Icon packager and Winstep Nexus. And the double start button problem was happening before i installed Nexus.
So it's not only me. I feel better...lol.

The Mystery of Why Jews Fast on Tisha B'Av
The Prophet Zechariah, for one, seems to think we should be celebrating the construction of the Second Temple, not mourning the loss of the first. But that was then.
What is Tisha B'Av?
Tisha B'Av is a day of mourning for multiple tragedies in Jewish history. The catastrophes believed to have happened on the ninth ("Tisha" in Hebrew) day of the Jewish month of Av include the destruction of both the first and second Temples in 586 BCE and 70 CE respectively, and the Roman massacre of the Jews of Betar in 132, which effectively ended the Bar Kochba rebellion.
Throughout the centuries, other persecutions have been accrued to the day, including the expulsion of Jews from Spain in 1492 and from England in 1290. In 1942, the Germans chose Tisha B'Av to begin the liquidation of the Warsaw Ghetto.
However, Jewish tradition has it that one day, Tisha B'Av will become a day of rejoicing. A midrash (Midrash Eicha Rabba 1:51) states that the Messiah will be born on Tisha B'Av, and one prophecy (Zechariah 8:19) says Tisha B'Av will someday be celebratory: "The fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful feasts."
When is Tisha B'Av?
As its name indicates, Tisha B'Av is commemorated on the 9th of the Hebrew month of Av (usually falling in August). As with all Jewish holidays, it begins and ends at sundown.
Tisha B'av 2015 - July 25 to 26
Tisha B'av 2016 - August 13 to 14
Tisha B'av 2017 - July 31 to August 1
Tisha B'av 2018 - July 21 to 22
Tisha B'av 2019 - August 10 to 11
How do we observe Tisha B'Av?
Tisha B'Av is day of mourning observed by abstaining from food and drink from sundown to after sunset the next day.
It is customary to sit on low chairs or on the floor, as in a house of mourning. Other mourning customs include wearing old garments and abstaining from sexual relations, the use of perfumes, and wearing leather shoes. Bathing for pleasure is also forbidden, and only the minimal amount of washing for hygiene is allowed. There are also restrictions on working, and it is considered a bad omen to conduct business deals during the fast. Jews refrain from greeting each other or sending gifts on this day. It is customary to sit on low stools or on the floor until midday, and many will remove a pillow or sleep in a less plush bed, the discomfort reminding them of the Temples lost. Studying Torah and Talmud is limited only to those parts suitable for a nation in mourning.
On the night of Tisha B'Av, the somber Book of Eicha (Lamentations), which mourns the destruction of Jerusalem, is read in synagogues by low light or candlelight. This is followed by the recitation of kinnot, liturgical dirges mourning the loss of the Temple and Jerusalem. Some kinnot also recall other events associated with Tisha B'Av, such as massacres of whole communities during the Crusades and the Holocaust.
In Israel, most businesses close early the eve of Tisha B'Av and programming on television and radio is somber and subdued.
What do we eat on Tisha B'Av?
As Tisha B'Av itself is a fast day, we don't eat on the day itself. However, there is special mourning fare for the last meal before the fast of Tisha B'Av. Many communities serve dishes with round ingredients, symbolizing the circle of life: lentils and eggs in Sephardi and Mizrahi communities, bagels in the Ashkenazi ones.
Are there religious laws governing Tisha B'Av?
Tisha B'Av is believed to have been established during the 70 years of the Babylonian exile as one of four days commemorating the destruction of the Temple and the loss of sovereignty. The earliest reference to these four days of fasting is found in the Book of Zechariah, written during these first years of return to Israel.
The historical significance of Tisha B'Av is discussed in the Mishna (Ta'anit 4:6) although there was some debate during Second Temple times as to whether the fast should still be observed when the Temple had been rebuilt. After the destruction of the Second Temple, the fast became firmly established in the national psyche. The Talmud (Ta'anit 26b) discusses the precise laws of mourning, starting with "reducing our joy" from the beginning of the month of Av.
The Prophet Zechariah, for one, seems to think we should be celebrating the construction of the Second Temple, not mourning the loss of the first. But that was then.
Haaretz's food columnist cooks lunch with the doyenne of Jewish cooking, and discusses food history and Jewish tradition
Jerusalem was not destroyed because of baseless hatred, but rather because of the zeal of Jewish fundamentalists.
It is seemingly incomprehensible: two separate resistance organizations existed in the Warsaw Ghetto. One combining all the socialist movements there, Zionist and anti-Zionist; the other led by members of Betar, the Revisionist youth organization.
When personal devastation overlaps with ancient Jewish devastation, the author finds himself mediating about loss.
The ninth of Av marks the destruction of the Second Temple.
Jews are going through a period of mourning, and naturally many of the rituals have to do with food.
Rabbi Yohanan, son of Nuri, said: 'I had complained about Rabbi Akiva and he was punished with a flogging. Yet I know that he loved me all the more each time he was beaten, as it is written, "Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee. Reprove a wise man, and he will love thee."'
What would the Pixar movie's characters – Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear and Disgust – say about this solemn day?

I'm not gonna lie ladies...it takes a lot of time and effort to get from this:
To this:
There is some serious polishing going on and I'm not talking about silver. My hair, as we've already established is nappy. You remember: nap.py. Getting it all straight, smooth and sexy is an arduous process that entails creams, gels, sprays, spritzes, blow dryers, flat irons and smoothening conditioners. Not to mention ZERO humidity. The whole process leaves my husband saying the same thing every time I blow dry my hair straight, "Your hair is actually steaming. Smoke is coming off of your hair. Look at the house; it is filled with smoke. You are going to get lung cancer. Kids, hold your breath, Mom is straightening her hair again". And he always says it in this tone of voice like I have just driven 14 hours with them in a Ford Festiva with the windows up while I smoked 12 packs of camels. And he calls me high drama.
Well tomorrow that will all change because Salon Sara is putting some sort of permanent straightener in my hair. You know I'd trust Salon Sara with my life so my hair is no big deal. She's fabulous and always leaves my hair looking way more fabulous than when I got there so I don't ask a lot of questions.
"What happens when my hair starts to grow out?" Nope. Didn't ask. "Why does this process take 4 hours?" Never even crossed my mind. "Will I still have my trademark 'flip' after this process or will I have gone all Ashlee Simpson?" Should have asked but didn't. Trust. That is what a girl needs to have when working with the talents of Salon Sara. Trust and a little shot of tequila never hurts. But only when you're going in for a 4 hour straightening hair procedure.
I'll be honest, I'm not 100% certain I'm coming out of there with any pubic hair left.
And that's ok with me. Just as long as I don't come out looking like this:

FBI Adds KKK to Notorious COINTELPRO Operation
COINTELPRO was a secret FBI operation that included illegal actions, such as burglaries and the theft of documents, wiretapping, the forgery of documents, and other efforts to disrupt political targets. Its principal target was the Communist Party, along with some other left-wing groups. Under pressure from President Lyndon Johnson to act on civil rights (mainly because of the murder of three civil rights workers in Mississippi on June 21, 1964), the FBI on this day extended its COINTELPRO program to the Ku Klux. On May 9, 1968, the FBI added "New Left" (meaning mainly anti-Vietnam War and black militant groups) to COINTELPRO's targets.
Existence of the COINTELPRO program was first discovered when political activists burglarized the FBI office in Media, Pennsylvania, on March 8, 1971, and stole and released documents to the news media (see the book, below). Only one document among those stolen contained the word COINTELPRO, but the first news stories based on the documents, in March 1971, spurred further inquiries, and the nature of the program was later revealed.
The COINTELPRO was first exposed by the Senate Church Committee investigations that began on January 27, 1975.

First annual Kurt Cobain Day being marked in Aberdeen
Nirvana lead singer Kurt Cobain would have been 47 years old Thursday, and for the first time his hometown of Aberdeen is officially celebrating its most famous resident with the first-annual Kurt Cobain Day.
As you drive into town, the sign says "Come as You Are" in honor of one of Nirvana's biggest hits. But the welcome sign wasn't added until 2005, 11 years after Kurt took his own life. It's taken another nine years for the town to finally give Kurt Cobain the official recognition mayor Bill Simpson says should have come much sooner.
"One of the things that I stress is that we are not celebrating his drugs or the facts that he may have killed himself, [but] the fact of what he did for music."
Simpson says he's taken plenty of heat from people who criticize Cobain, given his troubled history and the fact he often derided his hometown.
"I keep saying over and over again we're celebrating his music, not the fact that he was a druggie," says Simpson.
Twenty years after his death, Cobain continues to draw fans from all over the world to Aberdeen, searching for any connection.
Simpson says he's counted visitors from 28 different countries and 32 states looking to see notorious sites and memorabilia from Cobain and Nirvana.
"In fact, I just left the museum today and there was a couple from El Salvador who came here to see the Kurt Cobain [memorabilia]," says Simpson.
Festivities for the commemoration include the unveiling of a new Cobain statue by local artist Randi Hubbard, a tribute concert and continuing display of Nirvana-related memorabilia at the local library.
The mayor says he's spent the last few months getting to know a lot more about Cobain the artist and musician, and has come away impressed.
"I think he's a very deep thinker, a very artistic individual and that's what makes me happy to see that he is notarized for that and not the facts of the other things that went on in his life."
And if he has his way, Aberdeen will be doing a lot more to continue to embrace its most famous son.

In a statement Andreas Clark, the body's acting chief executive, said: "It is with deep sadness that we announce that our dearly loved colleague and friend Yvonne May, who has for the last few months been battling illness, passed away over the weekend.
"Yvonne was a tireless and passionate ambassador for our Australian wine community in her role as regional director for the UK & Europe. We were richer for having her in our lives but now poorer with her leaving us much too soon.
"While those who knew her well will be grieving her loss, she would not want us to wallow and we should all continue to be inspired with how she embraced life and its opportunities.
"Our hearts go out to Yvonne's husband David and her family during this difficult and sad time."
May has asked that people who wish to send flowers donate to the drinks industry charity, The Benevolent, instead.

In June of 2010, Adam Sandler and Kevin James fired up NASCAR fans for a one-of-a-kind start to a race. The two actors, promoting the movie "Grown-Ups," showed up to the Michigan International Speedway as grand marshals and surely didn't disappoint.
As avid NASCAR fans, the two will reunite at yet another NASCAR race and serve as grand marshals once again. This time, it's going to be on a rather bigger stage.
The Daytona International Speedway announced that the stars of "Grown-Ups 2" will have the honor of being a part of the traditional pre-race ceremonies at one of the most anticipated NASCAR races on the schedule, the Coke Zero 400. Besides Sandler and James, former NBA All-Star Shaquille O'Neal will join the two comedians and bring his humor and deep, dark voice to the racetrack in front of over 100,000 race fans.
Having those three minds combined, who knows what they shall come up with. When Sandler and James were grand marshals a few years back, they came up with a one of a kind command. First, and probably most importantly, they thanked the "troops over seas." As hysterical as those two are, they made sure they were somewhat professional during a time of uncertainty in America with the events occurring in the Middle-East. Afterwards, the two combined to do a wacky musical and somewhat strange performance for race fans.
This time around should be even more interesting. Shaq will probably add some craziness to the command to contend with arguably the best command to ever be heard at a NASCAR race. Oh, and for those that are interested in seeing if there's some luck when Sandler and James do the command, keep an eye out for Denny Hamlin. Hamlin won the Michigan race in June of 2010, edging out Kasey Kahne and Kurt Busch. The command should just be a small part of the high level on anticipation for the night race at Daytona.

Dr Yvonne Allen, Executive Director of the BNA, said, "There is always fierce competition for the BNA Postgraduate award; the standard of science is impressively high. William impressed us with his clarity of style and his promising publication record. He is also clearly very enthusiastic to present his work at as many prestigious conferences as possible."
William's thesis describes how he obtained evidence for the existence of imprinted genes on the X chromosome that specifically affect a particular aspect of behaviour. Imprinted genes are special, chemically marked genes that help distinguish whether the gene came from the father or the mother, and whether or not it should be used in the offspring. The X chromosome is loaded with genes that are essential for brain and behavioural functioning.
"William's findings are important because imprinted genes have been implicated in common mental disorders such as autism. Greater knowledge of these genes may therefore help us to understand and eventually treat such disorders," stated Dr Lawrence Wilkinson, William's PhD supervisor.
"Additionally, locating imprinted genes on the X chromosome may provide new insights into why men and women behave differently, and why they show different vulnerabilities to certain mental problems." Dr Wilkinson continued.
Dr Richard Dyer, Director of the Institute, said, "I am delighted that the BNA has recognised the significance of William's work. The award is testament to the hard work put in by William and the quality of the training environment provided by the Babraham Institute for young scientists."

text: I have recently purchased an older trix U30C (it was made in mid to late 70s) and decided to put MT couplers on it. When I put it back together it didn't work. I have done everything I could think of to get to work, but to no avail. This loco design has a circuit board under the fuel tank and the pickups are small copper stips attached to the wheel assembly. I am at a lose. I tested the motor and it still works but cannot for the life of me figure out how to get power to and from the motor. This was a great runner and I would hate to lose it. Does anybody have any experience with this type of loco, or know of anybody that I could contact or email or is there a web site or anything??? I can email pictures of the setup if needed. I really frustrated with this... Please help!!! foxman

Printing Technology Courses and Training Programs
Pre-press technicians and press operators control and maintain the printing machinery for newspapers, books and magazines. You can gain skills in this field by completing a certificate or associate degree program in printing technology. Find out what you'd learn in a printing technology program, and get info on career advancement opportunities for printing professionals. Schools offering Visual Communication degrees can also be found in these popular choices.
What You Need to Know
Even with the advent of technology that puts the news or a book in the palm of our hands digitally, a good physical book with real paper to touch and flip still can't be beat in the minds of many. Those specializing in today's printing technology will certainly enjoy the convenient benefits of using such tech to produce physical products, but the honed attention to detail is still a must in the field as it ever was.
|Certificate or associate's degree programs available
|Printing technology, silk screen, electronic imaging, digital printing and management, graphics, printing stages, preventative maintenance, printing software, typography, production management
|Future Career Options
|From pre-press technician or press operator to a press room supervisor or printing cost estimator
What Is Printing Technology?
Traditional printing machines use rollers and presses to imprint the final image to the page. Newer forms of print technology are non-impact and make use of computers. For example, electrostatic and digital printing is quicker and allows printers to preview the material before it is printed on the page. Pre-press technicians and press operators are needed to approve the image for mistakes, load paper, monitor ink distribution and maintain the machinery.
What Programs Are Available?
Certificate programs are short, specialized studies in printing technology, silk screen, electronic imaging or digital printing. These programs can typically be completed in a year and may include elective courses in offset press work and pre-press techniques. With the increasing importance of computerized technology, many working press operators go back to update their knowledge through certificates at advanced levels. In some cases, publishing technology programs can be completed partially online or with the option to mix classroom and online studies.
Associate degree programs may emphasize graphics, digital technology or management, which may appeal to you if you want to advance to supervisor positions within the industry. With the prevalence of e-books, you should consider programs that incorporate new media, such as digital publishing and graphics, into the curricula. Though a college degree is not always required, press operators and technicians must have excellent computer and communication skills, both of which can be learned through an associate degree program.
What Will I Study?
You can expect to be introduced to the stages of printing, from pre-press checks to press operation and final bindings. You will probably be introduced to printing shop practices, such as preventative maintenance. Although traditional printing methods are still being used, digital and quick printing is becoming more prevalent. You may consider taking elective technology-based courses that introduce you to printing software like QuarkXPress and Photoshop.
Individual courses will vary depending on your program's specialization. Programs that center on graphics and printing may include courses in graphic design and typography. Printing management programs will likely include instruction in estimating, planning and production management.
How Can I Further My Career?
You may begin your career working as a pre-press technician or a press operator. However, with experience, you can advance to more complex presses or become a press room supervisor. As you climb the ranks, you will also make printing cost estimates to clients. Alternatively, you may continue your education through voluntary press operator certification or a bachelor's degree in printing management or new media studies.

COPIAH COUNTY, Miss. (WJTV) – The Mississippi Department of Transportation has announced that the Highway 27 Roundabout Project at the intersection of Lee Avenue and Highway 27 in Copiah County is entering the final phases of construction.
Traffic will be switched into its permanent configuration during these final construction phases.
Starting Monday, thru trucks will not be permitted through the roundabout.
"We want the traveling public to be aware of upcoming intermittent traffic pattern changes at the roundabout," said MDOT District 3 Engineer Kevin Magee. "Motorists should pay close attention to the posted signs for the remainder of the project."
The Highway 27 Roundabout is the first high-speed rural roundabout in Mississippi. Construction began on the $2.1 million project in March 2016, and MDOT anticipates the project to be complete in late fall 2016.
"This important project will provide a safer and more economically feasible alternative to the current intersection," said Transportation Commissioner Dick Hall. "The roundabout will help reduce the severity of crashes, enhance the visibility of the intersection and create more efficiency during peak traffic hours."


text: Saturday night I picked up my new octopus from a local wholesaler. They told me he came in from the Keys on Thursday night. I didn't have a tank for an octo when they told me they had gotten a few octopus in, but I called them Friday letting them know I made some room. I took all of the fish out out of the 65g and moved them around into all my other tanks to make room for this guy. I found my red LED light I used for the baby mercs I had and hooked it up and you can see it in this first picture. Now on to the octo. I'm guessing he is a hummelicki because I see a spot in the fourth picture. He's real tiny. (He escaped from that box in the first few pictures in about a minute, I figured it was worth a shot though...) He came out with lights on tonight so I snapped a few pictues. (I left my camera on a trip to North Carolina and have to wait for it to be mailed back, so I only have my phone to take pictures with, I know they aren't great)

There is no denying that Alex Rodriguez's skills have diminished over the last few years. However, the superstar third baseman does a lot for the New York Yankees. Not only is he an intimidating force in the middle of the lineup, but he is a veteran player who draws fans to the stadium.
Rodriguez totes a career .299 batting average with 654 homers and 1,969 runs batted in; like him or not, pitchers have to respect those numbers. With A-Rod's absence, the Yankees are missing a reliable glove and bat at third base. Rodriguez is a rare talent. Once he was healthy in 2013, fans around the league began to see what he still has left in the tank. Although he may lack the power he once had, A-Rod can still hit the ball in the gaps and drive in runs with the best of them. This is what the Yankees will miss most.
The team also loses a superstar that puts people in the seats. Attendance was down to just over 43,000 people a game in 2013. This was due mostly to lack of star power on the field for the Yankees. Rodriguez, Derek Jeter, Mark Teixeira and Curtis Granderson were injured for most of the season, leaving Robinson Cano as the team's only star on the field. People pay good money to see A-Rod play, and without him the Yankees may miss out on some ticket sales. Brian Cashman and the boys surely will not be pleased about this.
Alex Rodriguez may not be the talent that he once was, but he is still an excellent ball player. The Yankees' front office is excited not to have to pay the money owed to A-Rod in 2014, but they are going to miss his presence in the lineup and on the field. Only time will tell how Rodriguez's suspension truly affects the ball club.

Counselling Assignment Help Guide
What Guide will suit you?
Assignments can bring up anxiety in most of us, we know the work but getting it down in a way that hits the awarding body criteria can sometimes be a challenge.
I have been lecturing counselling for over a decade and in that time I have identified the more common areas that some students find challenging. I have formulated a range of counselling assignment help guides to assist and guide students in getting their knowledge into an assignment format that meets criteria.
Take a look over the guides below and select the level which feels right for you.
Click on the guides for more detailed information
What do the guides contain?
The counselling assignment help guides are comprehensive and designed to meet varied learning styles. The guides contain assignment exemplars, podcasts, theory and practice reports, video list matrixes, skills to practice theory and assignment writing support tips. They contain information to help students pass their assignments. The material is keyword rich in the trigger vocabulary that the awarding bodies deem as hitting criteria. My guides give you opportunity to compare your assignment against an assignment that passed at your level.
Special Bundle Offer
For students just entering counselling training who are intending on becoming counsellors, I have created a bundle assignment guide. The bundle offers a saving on buying each individual guide and it contains all the assignment help needed from the basic concepts in counselling right through to the final year of the Diploma in therapeutic counselling.
My 30 day, no questions asked guarantee. My intention in putting these guides together is to provide a rich and valuable resource to support students and underpin their existing knowledge. I truly feel that the guides are exceptional value having spent the best part of 2 years getting them to where they are now. If for any reason you do not feel the guide is the real deal, I will refund your money without question.
All my guides come with a free update service to ensure you have the most up to date information available. The guides are not a substitute for the knowledge you get from your course provider, please see my guide disclaimer.

The Geddes Road construction makes the drive to the Arb difficult. Here are suggestions coming from the north, south and west. Geddes Road between Huron Parkway and the new Geddes Ridge Road is totally closed -- no one lives there so the construction crew has made that area a hub for materials and equipment.
If you are approaching the Arb from the SOUTH or NORTH, you must get into the neighborhood south of the Arb from Washtenaw Avenue -- taking Arlington northbound is probably the easiest. Drive north on Arlington and at the 5-way stop sign, turn right onto Devonshire eastbound, make a quick left onto unpaved Heather Way, right on Geddes, and quick left on Riverview.
If you are approaching the Arb from the WEST, turn off Washtenaw Avenue eastbound onto Devonshire eastbound (this intersection is near the Beth Israel Congregation), continue eastbound on Devonshire and cross over Arlington. Make a quick left onto the unpaved Heather Way, right on Geddes, and first left on Riverview.
Note that if you are headed east on Washtenaw Avenue turning left onto Devonshire, make sure there is NO sign forbidding left turns onto Devonshire. A little farther north is Vinewood where there is such a sign and the Ann Arbor Police sit on Vinewood waiting to issue you a ticket.
Many trees have been cut down on Geddes near Riverview and there is no green road-sign at Riverview so be prepared for a new look-and-feel to the Geddes-Riverview area. And good birding!

"The Good, Bad, Ugly"
The Good: Love this book. The narration was spot on. Rosalyn Landor does a wonderful job with multiple voices and you're never confused about who is who. The story is very entertaining and fun.
The Bad: There were a couple of silly moments but all in all this is a great love story.
The Ugly: Nothing, nada, zippo. This is one of my favorite audio listens.
"Laugh out loud....adorable & sexy relationship!"
The witty character interactions between Jamie and Alec. Julie Garwood is the absolute MASTER of character conversations. Most of this book IS the back and forth between Jamie and Alec and I was CONSTANTLY making me burst out with a laugh. This book is also much more sensual & sexy than some of Garwood's other books I have read.....she does a great job of writing the scenes and making them very sexy & steamy without getting too raunchy.
I will listen to the book again and again!!!
I loved the scene in the courtyard where Jamie goes after someone (no spoilers) with a club. Overall though I enjoyed the trip from England back to Scotland. The beginning of Jamie and Alec's relationship was great.
She does a great job of making this story come alive. I felt like I was there. She plays out the scenes so perfectly! Her male voices are good...but not the very best..so I really wish I could really give the performance 4.5 stars.
Laughed constantly. Cried a few times. Smiled through it all!
The Bride is so character driven - Jamie and Alec are great characters. There wasn't a ton of other drama going on...there was very little to detract from the building of Jamie and Alec's relationship. They are the MAIN focus of the book and that is what I loved....that being said that does mean there is not really another big story going on so I have to give the 4 stars.
I do love a highland book, this brings us the mix of Highlanders and the English. Takes place in 1102/1103. Good story, sweet, scary, hot and the list goes on!! I LOVE this couple, perfect! Jamie (the heroine) is spunky and fun, quirky and very entertaining! Alec...well what can I say...YUMMY!! Hard, Strong, and of course STUBBORN!! Perfect dominant Highlander. I wish I could look under his plaids :)
I will say this is an excellent story will be a repeat listen for me! Narrator always does well and continued to do well this time.
I found that the vocabulary used in this book isn't nearly as authentic as some I've heard and honestly, that is a good thing, it can be difficult in some books to keep up and really get involved with the story when you have to focus so much on the language, that said, it sounds good and is very entertaining too, so really I'm good either way, but the point is that the language in this book is slightly closer to today's language than actual 1100's highlanders.
"Entertaining and steamy with likable characters"
Sure. It has a witty and humorous leading lady paired with a gruff but loving man who are getting to know each other. It's a fun combination.
Jaime was my favorite lead and the priest my favorite supporting character.
When she unknowingly was crying in front of the king.
I can't think of anything witty.
I didn't think I'd enjoy this book as much as I did. It was delightful.
"Very good Historical Highlander romance :D"
4 stars
This was a very good story. I love highlanders and Alec was a pretty good Highlander hero. Jamie is a sweet but spirited woman and I really liked her. This is the first book I've read by Julie Garwood but based on this book I'd try more by her.
Jamie hasn't had an easy life. She's the youngest of 4 sisters but has spent her life taking care of her father and sisters and that's all life seems to have in store for her. She isn't expecting an upset to appear in the form of 2 Highlanders that the King has decreed will marry 2 of the 4 sisters. Much to her dismay and surprise, Jamie is chosen by Alec to be his bride.
Alec is the leader of a Highlander clan. He was married once but when she died he had no wish to remarry. When his King decreed that he marry and English woman he's un-thrilled but accepts it as necessary. Alec becomes much happier with the prospect once he gets a look at Jamie.
Jamie and Alec are married while her sister, Mary marries his friend, Daniel. Once they're married, Alec and Daniel take their new brides and leave immediately for Scotland (much to Jamie and Mary's dismay). Jamie and Alec have a tumultuous start to their relationship. While Alec is kind to Jamie in some circumstances and he makes sure she knows he wont hurt her, he doesn't take it easy on Jamie. Alec seems determined to make sure Jamie knows her place and at times gets a little annoying while doing it. He's actually not that mean about it for the most part. It's more like her enjoys pissing her off and teasing her but is rather rude in the ways he does it. Jamie is exasperated and annoyed with him a good portion of the time at the beginning but as she learns him more (and experiences the intimacies of the marriage bed with him) she finds she likes Alec and wants to win his love.
Unfortunately for Jamie, fitting in to her new home and with her new husband isn't easy. There are multiple mis-communications and cultural differences they both have to get past. Jamie makes an efforst to fit in to her new life and does the best she can but she does some things that cause grumblings in neighboring clans which could lead to trouble (even though she really didn't do anything wrong). She does manage to win the love of her new clan though and things go relatively well in that area. Things start going better and better between Jamie and Alec as they start to get to know each other and eventually fall for each other. Unfortunately, while their personal lives are meshing, other areas start having issues. Jamie is almost killed and a couple of attempts are made on her life before the culprit is found out. I really liked how the story ended because some of Jamie's actions with the neighboring clans ended up turning out well and it leads in to a nice HEA for Alec and Jamie.
This was a very enjoyable story. I really liked Jamie and Alec and loved the banter between them. While the story wasn't humorous overall, there were some comments and scenes in the story that had me laughing out loud. I really liked the secondary characters in the story as well. They really helped make the story good. I'd recommend this book. Thumbs up! :D
* note - The narrator did a good job overall but she didn't do a a very good Scottish accept IMO.
"Juicy female heroine romsnce"
My oh my. Spunky leading lady puts every historical chauvinist in their unimaginable place. Is this why we love romances ? Women say and do rediculous things and are adored. If only.
"Enjoyable but tame."
Probably not. There was nothing wrong with the writing or narration, it was just a little too sweet and innocent for me.
There were several humorous moments, nothing memorable though.
I don't believe I have heard her before but she did an excellent job.
"A great story that kept me on the edge!!"
The narrator did a fabulous job, but it was other people's reviews that made me decide to read it.
That I was unable to predict who was trying to kill.
Her strength to continue on and fight a highlander.
"Good Story"
like the story, Like story better when guy is guy voice and woman is woman voice
when jamie dumps water on soldiers
"Highlander romances are the best!"
Refreshing story and love affair. A little too too much brutality for the bride but still a great listen.

You Can Go Home Again: Busiek on 'Astro City: Local Heroes'
It's been a long time coming, but next spring, fans of Kurt Busiek's "Astro City" will be able to return to the city in the shadow of Mount Kirby.
The ongoing series was previously derailed by Busiek's health problems, which prevented him devoting the resources to writing "Astro City" he preferred. While his condition is such that he's now comfortable telling new stories, that doesn't mean the writer has a clean bill of health.
"Oh, I wish," Busiek told CBR News on Saturday. "One of the problems with mercury poisoning, unfortunately, is that mercury is just as toxic being flushed out of the system as it was going in. So they have to be careful with the stuff they give me to leach it out — too little, and it doesn't do enough good, too much and I get sick from the detox. So I'm up and down, depending on how the process is going. I'm not back to full capacity by any means, but I'm going in the right direction, and that's what matters.
"As it is, I'm working on #4, and expect to have the whole series written before the first issue comes out."
The focus of the miniseries hearkens back in many ways to the original miniseries, published in trade paperback form as "Life in the Big City."
"Each of the stories is seen through the eyes of a 'civilian' … the focus is more on the normal people of the city than on the heroes, though that does vary quite a bit from story to story. And we see a whole mess of heroes, from audience favorites like Samaritan, Jack-In-The-Box and the Confessor, to barely-glimpsed or mentioned-but-never-seen heroes like the Flying Fox and the Blue Knight, and even brand-new heroes, including Roustabout, Supersonic and Atomicus, the atom-powered hero of the early 1960s."
|Kurt Busiek
In their description of the book released to retailers, DC erroneously announced that "Local Heroes" would be three standalone stories, followed by a two part "Dark Ages." Not so.
"I don't know where they got that, either," Busiek said. "The last two issues aren't a two-part story, and they aren't called 'Dark Ages.' We do have a story in the works called 'The Dark Age,' but it's much longer than two issues. It's the story of what happened back in the Seventies, including the much-hinted-at fate of the Silver Agent. But it's not part of 'Local Heroes.'"
With so much time spent away from the title, it wouldn't be a surprise if Busiek was a bit nervous about his return to the streets of Astro City.
"I'm always nervous about how my stories will be received. That's just par for the course. But what really made me feel like the book was back, like it was coming alive again, was getting Brent Anderson pages through my fax machine, and seeing the city and the characters taking shape again through his pencils. That was a huge thrill, and I just hope it'll be as much of one for the readers as it has been for me.
"In the end, all I can do is write the best stories I can, and put 'em out there with the help of the whole creative team. What happens after that, I'm content to leave up to the readers."
And finally, the question all creators who create linked series of miniseries: When's the next one coming out?
"Hey, let us get this one launched, at least, before we start talking up the next one!
"The next arc may be 'The Dark Age,' or it may be something else — I have a gazillion stories to tell and want to tell them all at once. But we'll start working on it as soon as we finish this one (or, more accurately, I'll start writing it as soon as I finish the last of 'Local Heroes,' so I'll be writing while Brent draws the current one), and it'll come out as soon as we have enough done to be sure it'll all come out on time and as promised."
