I think Matt has done Joyce Meyers a disservice. He states she said "she is not a sinner". So did Paul: Romans 7:20 Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. Perhaps she was stating that. Here is one our Pastor says: people often say "If God wills it, it will happen". This is a lie. Explanation: Does God want everyone 'saved' and not to go to Hell? Answer: YES! But is everyone saved? Answer: NO!

6. Garner did not die at the scene of the confrontation. He suffered cardiac arrest in the ambulance taking him to the hospital and was pronounced dead about an hour later.
7. Much has been made of the fact that the use of chokeholds by police is prohibited in New York City. But officers reportedly still use them. Between 2009 and mid-2014, the Civilian Complaint Review Board received 1,128 chokehold allegations.
Patrick Lynch, president of the New York City Patrolmen's Benevolent Association, said: "It was clear that the officer's intention was to do nothing more than take Mr. Garner into custody as instructed, and that he used the takedown technique that he learned in the academy when Mr. Garner refused."
8. The grand jury began hearing the case on Sept. 29 and did not reach a decision until Wednesday, so there is much testimony that was presented that has not been made public.
9. The 23-member grand jury included nine non-white jurors.
10. In order to find Officer Pantaleo criminally negligent, the grand jury would have had to determine that he knew there was a "substantial risk" that Garner would have died due to the takedown.

The Mainstream Media doesn't tell these facts:
1. There is no doubt that Garner was resisting an arrest for illegally selling untaxed cigarettes. Former New York City Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik put it succinctly: "You cannot resist arrest. If Eric Garner did not resist arrest, the outcome of this case would have been very different," he told Newsmax. "He wouldn't be dead today.
"Regardless of what the arrest was for, the officers don't have the ability to say, 'Well, this is a minor arrest, so we're just going to ignore you.'"
2. The video of the July 17 incident clearly shows Garner, an African-American, swatting away the arms of a white officer seeking to take him into custody, telling him: "Don't touch me!"
3. Garner, 43, had history of more than 30 arrests dating back to 1980, on charges including assault and grand larceny.
4. At the time of his death, Garner was out on bail after being charged with illegally selling cigarettes, driving without a license, marijuana possession and false impersonation.
5. The chokehold that Patrolman Daniel Pantaleo put on Garner was reported to have contributed to his death. But Garner, who was 6-foot-3 and weighed 350 pounds, suffered from a number of health problems, including heart disease, severe asthma, diabetes, obesity, and sleep apnea. Pantaleo's attorney and police union officials argued that Garner's poor health was the main cause of his death.
6. Garner did not die at the scene of the confrontation.

It is very weird that Oregon was the first U.S. state to make it legal for a doctor to prescribe a life-ending drug to a terminally ill patient of sound mind who makes the request. Yet, a prison warden cannot have access to the drug for using on death row prisoners…..
My understanding is this 'drug' puts one to sleep, and death occurs about one hour later.

When in AZ you see "desert landscaping", but in CA lawns, flowers, and bushes are everywhere. Our CA lawns get watered, they grow, then we mow them, then fertilize, then water, then mow, it is an endless cycle of wasted water. The typical suburban lawn consumes 10,000 gallons of water above and beyond rainwater each year.

There are tithes (meaning a 'tenth' or 10%). This is Gods. Here is a verse:Malachi 3:10
Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, And try Me now in this," Says the Lord of hosts, "If I will not open for you the windows of heaven And pour out for you such blessing That there will not be room enough to receive it.
Anything you give over that is considered an offering. So if you give a tithe to the church, in my opinion, the church should use it for what they need to run the church (pay the Pastors and the light bill etc.). An offering can be designated to whatever ministry the giver designates (missions, building fund, etc.).

And praise be to God Most High, who delivered your enemies into your hand." Then Abram gave him a tenth of everything."
—Genesis 14:18-20
Right from the start (before the law) 10% – a tithe – which means 'tenth', was given. It all through both the old AND new testaments.

Timing for Shrub Rose pruning - Zone 5
I can't recall if the best time to cut back your shrub roses was a few weeks before bud swell or closer to bud swell.
I fought the urge to cut back extremely vigorous fall shoots so at this point I'd rather wait until its the right time.
I agree with Buford. I know the old forsythia thing gets laughed at but I think it's a good indicator of the right time to prune. The forsythia won't bloom until the SOIL temperature is high enough for good root nutrient uptake and growth. That's when the roses will start to wake up and the buds to fatten and that's the best time to prune because you're better able to tell what is still viable cane and what has been winter damaged.
I'm a zone colder than Buford so I won't be pruning until probably the beginning of April, not March, around here. You're a zone colder than I am so you're probably going to be later in April. I know it's really hard this time of year because we're all SO eager to get out there but patience is a virtue, lol!
March sure took its time rolling in spring, in fact winter is still hanging around this week with highs in the mid 30s.
Luckily it was in the 50s this past weekend and I was able to make most of my transplants.
With that said I was ready to prune my shrub roses this weekend but after a scratch test I noticed that the upper 1/3rds where brown and the next third was "greenish" but not as green as the bottom third.
Should I prune back to the "greenish" color or to where I see a nice bright green?
Most other plants you use the buds as a guide but the roses it appears the green guides you. However I watched a couple videos and they said you can cut them back up to 2/3rds to a node. But I don't see any nodes.
Does that mean its too early yet or do I use the color of the stem as my guide?
Its been warmer in the PNW compared to most of the US.
I still have frost in the ground in several areas.
Forsythia won't be blooming until 3rd week of April at best.
Magnolias might not be blooming to the end of the month possibly early May.
I don't know about the "green" test, but if you are referring to how far back to trim rose canes in order to eliminate winter damage, I check the round interior of the cane. If I clip the cane back about 1/3 and the center is brownish, I go 2-4 inches further down the cane and clip again, and keep doing that until the interior comes up glistening white.
Yes, sometimes that means HTs have to be pruned back to just a couple inches or so from the ground--but if they have fully healthy canes (with white interiors, in other words), that rose will soon take off with energy and vigor and be nearly full sized by summer -- although not 7-8 ft tall like they sometimes get in California where they suffer no winter cane damage. My HTs usually stay about in the 3.5-4 ft tall range--due to winter damage.
I also go with the forsythia test. They started blooming a week or so ago around here (Zone 6).
I don't think I understand the "nodes" question. If you look closely at a rose cane, you will find little "pimples" periodically along the cane. Trim back to just above one of those "pimples"--preferably one heading away from the center of the bush.
Good luck.
Yes, I'd wait until they have begun to actively grow. If the leaf buds/nodes have not begun to fatten up and grow it's a little early yet. If they are already starting to grow then go ahead and prune them. There is no sure rule for it because it's a very climate specific thing and there are a lot micro climates that can influence things. For me spring comes a little later than elsewhere here even though I'm in zone 6. I'm right on the lake and that big expanse of water was frozen all winter and takes time to warm up. The cold wind coming off the water keeps my yard cooler than places even a few miles inland from me in the spring. However, in the fall it takes a long time for that water to cool down again so I'm warmer than inland and will have roses blooming sometimes into November. You have to learn how your area works and go with the right time for you.
I don't just start at 1/3 of the way down. Sometimes they're still healthy much higher than that and I like to leave mine with as much good cane to start out with as possible. In our cold zones we lose a lot as it is. Start at the top of each cane and cut off about 2 inches. Look at the center of the cane. Is it White/green or tan/brown? White/green is live cane. Tan /brown is dead wood. Keep cutting down about 2 inches at a time just above an outward facing leaf bud until you get to cane that has a clear, clean white/green center. From there down you should be good. But also check down the sides of the canes for dark streaks or damage. If the cane has been damaged further down chances are it will die back to below that damage anyway so you might as well take it off.
I too, wait for my forsythias to bloom. The last couple of weeks have been a torturous test of "the gardener's patience" because the forsythia has been blooming all over town, but not on any of the levels in my garden. I garden on a slope.
Seil ... thank you for telling me the "why if it" as to why the forsythia is such a great indicator plant. Maybe the wait won't be so awful knowing the the soil has not warmed up enough.
Lola ... I live in the mountains of northern California, but it's still California. Even with a couple of feet of snow covering the roses for over a month, I didn't get much die back, but my day temps don't drop below freezing (they do at the higher elevations) ... only the night temps. There is not one bud on any of my roses while the other Californians you referred to in your post are sharing photos of this year's roses. Ya' just can't lump us all together .... lol.
There are times when I am sooooooooooo jealous because I am looking at winter while they are looking at spring, but I also don't have to do gardening chores 13 months out of the year. I get an annual break.
My forsythias popped last week while it was raining and all of the roses are completely leafed out. The buds were swollen for several weeks, but the roses held off, too, until it was the right time to leaf out. That's why I am learning to ignore anything other than the forsythias.

The clear loser in the intensifying back-and-forth between Elon Musk and the New York Times is the future of the Tesla brand.
The tit-for-tat drama reached its next predictable phase on Thursday evening when Times auto reviewer John Broder countered a scathing attack from earlier in the day by Tesla founder Musk, alleging that the journalist had deliberately and roundly falsified his assessment of the cold-weather capabilities of the Tesla S in a zeal to discredit the very expensive all-electric vehicle.
So far, assessments of all the back-and-forth and of who's being completely truthful seem to be tilting in favor of Broder and his newspaper. But clearly there's a long way to go in the battle launched by the Times' publication on February 10 of "Stalled Out on Tesla's Electric Highway." Continue reading...

digital moves
Posted by Mark J. Miller on December 21, 2012 01:13 PM
Journalists have long cursed the rise of digital as being the death of long-form journalism. Who has time to sit down and consume 20,000 words on one topic when there is a vast array of bite-sized stories to feast on? In this era of "tl;dr," how can one devote so much time to a single issue when there are slide shows to click through, polls to take, and endless YouTube videos of cute cats and other animal antics to enjoy?
While many news organizations use all manner of digital wizardry to create more engaged news consumers, the term applies much more perfectly with those who actually sit down and consume those long-form stories that require a paper to devote one reporter's time and energy over an extended period, a luxury not many publications can make in these tightly budgeted times.
The New York Times, though, is thankfully making the effort and taking a chance on some of its readers settling into their favorite chair with their e-readers and tablets and digesting a story that may take them a good hour to read and watch. The paper has partnered with Byliner.com, a site dedicated to bringing such content to readers, to create short e-books that will sell for $2.99 a pop.
The first project of this original series, "Snow Fall" was just released on NYTimes.com to great acclaim on social media and is based on an article that John Branch wrote for the Times. It beautifully, interactively and dynamically — yet horrifically — tells the story of 16 of America's top skiers and snowboarders who got buried in an avalanche in Washington state last year and is reminiscent of The Perfect Storm and Into Thin Air.Continue reading...

executive decision

AOL Inc. calls itself the "brand company, committed to continuously innovating, growing, and investing in brands and experiences that inform, entertain, and connect the world." Now the brand company is without a branding head.
Jolie Hunt, AOL's chief marketing officer and communications head since July, is leaving the company less than five months after being hired away from head marketer at Thomson Reuters. According to the Wall Street Journal, the travel-loving Hunt's departure comes one week before AOL unveils a $10 million branding campaign and marks the fourth top AOL marketing and communications executive to leave this year. The company announced back in February its intention to launch a branding campaign to get consumers to care about AOL again.
Hunt — who was responsible for "AOL's global communications strategy, including internal and external communications; social media; corporate social responsibility and cause related initiatives; corporate events (and) AOL's global brand development, partnerships and consumer marketing initiatives" — had previously served as SVP and global head of brand for Thomson Reuters.
In June, Maureen Sullivan, the SVP of brand, marketing and communications, was reassigned to GM of women's content and lifestyle brands. Instead of of filling the CMO role, AOL is now looking for a new chief communications officer, as AOL CEO Tim Armstrong told Ad Age today. Hunt's departure and the restructuring have yet to be announced, meanwhile; the only exec announcement was a new business development head for three of its tech properties.Continue reading...

To the point that it was impossible to just walk down the street!! We wandered around for a while, before making our way to the river. The walk along the river was much nicer - quiet, amazing views and just a lot less chaotic! Back at Wenceslas Square we stopped for lunch at an Asian noodle bar. I had some ...

Recurring Role
Andre Bormanis in real life was the Science Consultant for Star Trek: The Next Generation and most of the following ones, and also wrote some of the later episodes in the cannon.
He has an entry in tv.com!
The scene following the lockup of Dr. Andre Bormanis, with John Doggett (Robert Patrick) in the hallway behind the gate, is eerily similar to the scene in Terminator 2: Judgement Day. I half expected him to walk through the chain-link gate!
Skinner refers to the car that one of the victims was in as having been "locked from the inside." I suppose I'm not familiar with every model of car ever made, but I am fairly certain that there is no way to tell whether a car was locked from the inside or if the door was locked while it was open and then shut by someone on the outside.
When Doggett and Skinner show their badges to Dr. Bormanis, Skinner's badge is upside-down.
Doggett: You just saved my life Agent Scully.
Scully: I just woke you up Agent Doggett.
(answering machine)
Scully: This is Dana Scully. Please leave a message.
Doggett: Agent Scully, I think we caught the guy who did it. But still it... it just doesn't add up. It's the damnedest thing I ever saw. I know that this sounds strange, but there's a, there's a... part of me says what if... what if this guy was right? What if I shouldn't have let him die? I'm not making a whole lot of sense. Maybe I just need some sleep. If you get this message... and feel up to it... you give me a call.
Homeless Man: Spare change?
Tipet: I don't have any.
Homeless Man: Now, come on, man. I know you got something 'cause I hear it jingling in your pocket.
Tipet: (grabs homeless man) You don't want to know me.
(Tipet then lets the man go. He scurries away. Tipet then goes to a payphone and puts the coins he had in his pocket in. The phone rings in a bearded man's lab. After a few rings the answering machine kicks in.)
Tipet: Pick up the phone, Bormanis. (The bearded guy sits there in fright, as Tipet grows even angrier.) I said pick up the phone, damn you! Pick up the damn phone!... You. You just did this to yourself. God help you, Andre because there's nothing left you can do.
This is the first X-Files episode where we learn that Langly's first name is 'Richard'. In the season 5 episode "Unusual Suspects" there was a scene where Langly is called 'Ringo' but it was cut from the finished version.
Episode Title: Via Negativa
The Via Negativa was first designed as a way of talking about God. As language limits a supposedly infinite God, it was concluded that the only way to talk about God was by saying what God is not, eg: God is not a cucumber. The title of the episode is refering to this.

Robert Young Sept Shooting
I noticed last week that my Robert Young was shooting and today I noticed even more shoots. These don't appear to be just whip shoots. Does Robert Young shoot twice a year?
Mine put up shoots a couple of weeks ago. Every time we got rain after a dry spell, several of my runners put up shoots.
It's not unusual for this area for runners to shoot all Summer long although the shoots are usually smaller toward the seasons end, but some people insist theirs only shoot once a year.
I noticed that only my young bamboos put up new shoots, my older stands (p. nigra henon and I think yellow groove) didn't put new shoots up. We had a very dry spring and some of the new shoots withered and aborted, but no new ones shot up. All my newbies (from 2011) had new shoots, p. vivax, p. angusta, even my transplants of yellow groove from last year.

Merry Corrie-mas!
Back in the 1970s and early 1980s, there was very little Corrie around at all. It tended to be ITV policy only to air the show if Christmas Day fell on a normal Corrie day. Even then, it wasn't always the case. Also, Granada tended to keep the festive storylines fairly light and managed to wait until 1987, the year of Hilda Ogden's departure, before really having a big story on the big day.
In fact, the Corrie Christmas storylines tended to be either low-key or a bit odd. Some of those you could have enjoyed include:
1961 - Ena chokes on a sixpence, by crikey she does Minnie Caldwell!
1962 - Emily and the tranquilisers. Well, it was the Swinging Sixties . . .
1969 - Ena & Emily duetting on "Cockles and Mussels" in the Rovers. Valerie Barlow's topless rendition of "We shall overcome" was never transmitted.
1976 - Vera attempts to strip Ernie Bishop
1982 - The community centre dance sees Elsie getting groped by someone older than her . . .
1985 - Alf sits on a plum pudding
1996 - Curly and Maureen. Together. In bed . . .

I remember an old Corrie Xmas episode (on a VHS compliation) and the show revolved around watching the Queens's Xmas message. Very sweet and charming. Oh, and Harry Hewitt bought Concepta Riley a watch

I have enjoyed all the Corrie Christmases, even if some have been quite tame, I think every christmasy episode from each year starting from 1960 should be released ON DVD, I'd buy it what a cracking corrie festive feast that would be!

'I think every christmasy episode from each year starting from 1960 should be released ON DVD, I'd buy it what a cracking corrie festive feast that would be!' Annonymous,
I agree with you wholeheartedly.
I like the episodes where the street would put on a panto for the oaps or kids..Cinderella, Aladin..what fun!

School briefs - Holman Middle School
November was a busy time of year at Holman Middle School. For the third year in a row, Holman hosted an author visit. This year, Donna Jo Napoli visited our school on Nov. 2. She presented a writing workshop in which students worked on their fictional writing skills, and she talked to students from around the county during a school-
wide assembly.
Holman also was excited and proud to honor our veterans at our annual Veterans' Day assembly on Nov. 9. Students invited family members, and guest speaker Staff Sergeant Brian Fields gave an inspiring keynote presentation.
Students are currently raising money for the Henrico Christmas Mother organization by buying tickets to vote for a teacher who will dress up as a can of spam.
The third-annual powder puff game was also held on Nov. 16, and it was a great way to have fun and help the community. This flag football game is for seventh and eighth-grade girls, and all participants, as well as faculty members, had the opportunity to purchase a t-shirt, with proceeds going to the Central Virginia Food Bank.
The girls also were encouraged to bring in canned food to donate to the food bank. The eighth grade won the game once again and maintained its winning title!
Holman has had a very eventful month, and we are looking forward to the holiday season. The Husky pack is on the move!
Local couple wins wedding at Lewis Ginter
Richmonders Jim Morgan and Dan Stackhouse were married at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden in Lakeside Mar. 7 month after winning the Say I Do! With OutRVA wedding contest in February. The contest was open to LGBT couples in recognition of Virginia's marriage equality law, which took effect last fall. The wedding included a package valued at $25,000.
Morgan and Stackhouse, who became engaged last fall on the day marriage equality became the law in Virginia, have been together for 16 years. They were selected from among 40 couples who registered for the contest. The winners were announced at the Say I Do! Dessert Soiree at the Renaissance in Richmond in February. > Read more.

A taste of Japan
Ichiban offers rich Asian flavors, but portions lack
In a spot that could be easily overlooked is a surprising, and delicious, Japanese restaurant. In a tiny nook in the shops at the corner of Ridgefield Parkway and Pump Road sits a welcoming, warm and comfortable Asian restaurant called Ichiban, which means "the best."
The restaurant, tucked between a couple others in the Gleneagles Shopping Center, was so quiet and dark that it was difficult to tell if it was open at 6:30 p.m. on a Monday. When I opened the door, I smiled when I looked inside. > Read more.
One beauty of a charmer
Disney's no-frills, live-action 'Cinderella' delights
Cinderella is the latest from Disney's new moviemaking battle plan: producing live-action adaptations of all their older classics. Which is a plan that's had questionable results in the past.
Alice in Wonderland bloated with more Tim Burton goth-pop than the inside of a Hot Topic. Maleficent was a step in the right direction, but the movie couldn't decide if Maleficent should be a hero or a villain (even if she should obviously be a villain) and muddled itself into mediocrity.
Cinderella is much better. Primarily, because it's just Cinderella. No radical rebooting. No Tim Burton dreck. It's the 1950 Disney masterpiece, transposed into live action and left almost entirely untouched. > Read more.

Vibrating armband used to help athletes develop muscle memory
"Muscle memory" is the process in which a certain motor task is repeated to such an extent that it can eventually be performed without conscious effort. It comes in handy for all sorts of activities, but is particularly important to athletes – a tennis player can hardly concentrate on the game, for instance, if they're constantly thinking about how to move their arm every time they return the ball. Now, engineers from Imperial College London have created an armband device known as Ghost, designed to assist athletes in forming optimum muscle memories. Read More
In Sir Arthur C. Clarke's 1972 novel Rendezvous with Rama, the explorers of a seemingly deserted alien spaceship passing through our Solar System encounter a strange three-legged creature that turns out to be an organic robot. In the '70s, this seemed so incredible that it could only be the product of an alien civilization thousands of years ahead of us. In 2012, scientists at MIT and the University of Pennsylvania are proving otherwise by starting work on organic robots here on Earth. Using genetically engineered muscle tissue that responds to light, they are blurring the line between animal and machine at the cellular level. Read More
Just about every major operation on the chest or abdomen requires surgeons to cut through the fascia, which is a layer of muscle located immediately beneath the skin. Closing these wounds can be very difficult – sewing up an incision in the fascial layer has been likened to trying to push a needle through shoe leather. If proper care isn't taken, however, potentially lethal complications can result. Now, a team of undergraduate students from Johns Hopkins University have created a device that should make the procedure easier and safer. Read More
We all know that you need to exercise if you want to develop your muscles. As it turns out, however, exercise also makes lab-grown muscle implants more effective when introduced to the body. Scientists from North Carolina's Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center have discovered that after being gently expanded and contracted, implants placed in lab animals were better able to stimulate new muscle growth than implants that were left "unexercised." Read More
A lot of devices, such as shock absorbers, currently use elastomers to help minimize vibrations. While the malleable, yielding qualities of these materials do indeed allow them to absorb energy that would otherwise take the form of rattles and jolts, they are nonetheless passive – basically, they just sit there. Researchers from Germany's Fraunhofer Institute for Structural Durability and System Reliability, however, are developing a new system in which elastomers actually "fight back" against vibrations. Read More
While our DNA is determined at conception, researchers reporting in the March issue of Cell Metabolism, say that we can beneficially alter our DNA molecules in a matter of minutes, simply by exercising. Furthermore, caffeine may also offer similar effects. Read More
Quick 3D motion-capture system developed for imaging muscles
Current medical imaging technology misses important data regarding muscle contraction, including the ways in which a muscle's shape changes when it contracts, how the muscle bulges, and how its internal fibers become more curved ... or at least, so Simon Fraser University (SFU)'s associate professor James Wakeling tells us. In order to remedy that situation, he has developed a new method of imaging contracting muscles, that he claims should allow researchers to observe never-before-seen details of muscle activation. Read More
He can't fly just yet, but a team of scientists have made a big step towards creating a real-life Mighty Mouse. Researchers at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, along with two Swiss institutions, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL) and the University of Lausanne, created a batch of super-strong mice and worms by tweaking a gene that normally inhibits muscle growth.

Tiny twisting muscles developed for propelling nanobots
We've been hearing a lot lately about the possibility of treating medical conditions using nanobots - tiny robots that would be injected into a patient's bloodstream, where they would proceed to travel to their targets, not unlike the microscopic submarine in the movie Fantastic Voyage ... except nanobots wouldn't be crewed by tiny shrunken-down humans. One challenge that still needs to be met, however, is figuring out a way of propelling the devices. Well, we may now be closer to a solution. Yesterday, development of a new type of nanoscale artificial muscle was announced, which works like the muscles in an elephant's trunk. These could conceivably be used in nanobots, to whip them along using a rotating flagellum - a tiny sperm-like tail, in other words. Read More
Gold nanowires used in promising new heart patches
Around the world, scientists have been working on ways of replacing the heart tissue that dies when a heart attack occurs. These efforts have resulted in heart "patches" that are made from actual cardiomyocytes (heart muscle cells), or that encourage surrounding heart cells to grow into them. One problem with some such patches, however, lies in the fact that that they consist of cardiomyocytes set within a scaffolding of poorly-conductive materials. This means that they are insulated from the electrical signals sent out by the heart, so they don't expand and contract as the heart beats. Scientists at MIT, however, may be on the way to a solution. Read More

"Ridiculous and short-sighted. Worst of the four."
A viable plot?
No spoilers! Dan Brown tried to mix it up a bit in this one. After all, Howard times can our hero be ripped from a pleasant morning and forced to save the world from a symbol-loving madman with a hot genius by his side? That's exactly what happens in this book, but he at least adds a nice shift to the formula. These books aren't Shakespeare and that's not why I listen to them. But this one brought it to a whole new level of transparent villains, red herrings, and random curveballs for the sake of plot movement. The final solution could be the beginning of a ten-volume dystopian nightmare series. But realistically, if there's a fifth Robert Langdon book, it will most likely be written off in a few lines or ignored altogether, much like each book's brainy Bond Girl. Nothing wrong with the performance, just a perfectly ridiculous book.
I was so happy for the man to get to do typical voices after being forced to whisper half of them in The Lost Symbol!
Not sure I could have fixed it without being able to alter the plot!
"Fabulous narration and story"
I dragged this one out because I never wanted it to end. One of my favorite performances EVER, and a gripping, complex, satisfying story. Highly recommended!!
"Horrendously miscast narration"
The book, thus far, is decent. The character is a depressed teenage girl - think Kristin Stewart. The narration performance sounds like a fifty-something mother of four, with no ability to do other voices. Dialogue is impossible to follow because the men and women sound the same. I didn't think it could get worse until she attempted a character with "a slight British accent." I rarely want to switch to the text version, but this time I might have to.
The Delirium series. It's YA dystopian romance with a heavy focus on depression.
I will actively avoid them.
I was frustrated and depressed as I went through the story with the character, seeing her missteps and feeling her pain. I was even more frustrated trying to reinterpret the story around the horribly miscast narration.
"Totally hooked"
I adore this audiobook. I find myself running it in a loop...I hit the end and want to cycle right back to the beginning again. It's not fine literature but it is very entertaining and presents an intriguing world that has proven thought-provoking for me. The narration is a wonderful part of the experience. I am impressed by the narrator's ability to capture male and female voices, as well as a variety of accents. The next book can't come soon enough!
"not Fforde's best"
I am a huge fan of Fforde's Thursday Next series, but this was lackluster in comparison. Not excellent recording quality, either. I didn't always care for the narrator's voice and characters, and could not always understand him. However, somehow Fforde is an addiction, and I still find myself wanting to listen to the sequel, The Fourth Bear!
"An excellent book!"
This book is fascinating and the narrator is amazing. This book is not for the squeamish, but it's quirky and fun and surprisingly informative. The narration really makes it all come together in an entertaining way! I have already bought more books narrated by Shelly Frasier - she is great!

Thanks sharing dude, now look forward to GT6, in glorious quad HD.
I hope they include all these tracks! BTW all of these tracks are from GT2!
Gran Turismo 5 graphically is a masterpiece and the physics are as well. However Gran Turismo 5 is a behemoth in size and loading times. I love Gran Turismo series so much, but I dont love GT5 anywhere near to older GTs! I love Gran Turismo 3 the most because it was fun, simplistic, great graphics, and awesome music including 99 red ballons, judas priest and lenny kravitz! Gran Turismo 3 aged very well for a 2001 game!

Wow, that sums up my feelings 100%. I loved GT3, so much so that I honestly can't remember GT4 that well...did I even play it?
