Help strange creatures to bring the eye to a mysterious customer.
3.73 / 5.00 11,266 ViewsHector is nearing the end of his quest to clear Prospero's Abbey from the curse of the Red Death.
In the Indigo Dungeon he encounters a devious dwarf jester by the name of Hop-Frog.
Hop-Frog loves gold and will steal keys from Hector.
Chase Hop-Frog through the dungeons avoiding the Skeletons and Zombies.
Rescue the tormented souls and dispel the curse of the Red Death.
Good luck.
Arrow keys to move. Space to pause
I've played all your others until the end. The only thing that disappointed me in this edition is the fact that it will not load after finishing the last (and extremely time-consuming) last mission. Maybe I need to clear out temp-files or something.
Fantastic game!
Very, very challenging!
I've gotten about eight or nine levels done....going to come back and try for more. The puzzles are nice and difficult, there's a level or two I've skipped for now that I just can't quite figure out :P
I love this series! But...
I think I found a glitch on North, East, South, Jest. I think it's due to the keys. Going through the walls I grabbed the Square key, then I went towards Hop-Frog who then stole it. Then I followed him to the end hall where he turned and went down the pathway. Then he clicked the switch and I grabbed the Cross Key. I contined with the level (I pushed the box into the gap where the other 2 skulls side-by-side were)
Then when I came back to get the other key, I backed Hop-Frog into a corner, but he didn't move up. (I was on top of Hop-Frog while he had the key!) I can't complete the level due to this. Then again it might be because you can't get two keys (Without Glitching). If it's me I'd like to know, If it really is a glitch, then please try and fix it, I love this series! Also Hop-Frog is a great new twist, I can't wait for the other one! (Or two I forget). Whatever, it's probably me, so I'll try and beat it again. Sorry for the long complaint, I just thought I'd let you know!
Still - 10/10 & 5/5 - KamiCosmic
teas was fun and sort of a littel like swagman a playstason game but still i hade a hard time at the game out of 10 levels i only did 4 levels
Liked this one more than the blue version. The confusion potions were more of an annoyance in case you had a mindslip and accidently walked into a pit.
Noticed a couple glitches where sometimes Hop-Frog would get stuck in a corner, allowing you to just walk up to him and get your key back. Seems to happen most often in lower right corners.
I'd say Hop-Frog looked more like a goblin than a dwarf. Where's his burly beard!
Keep up the good work, look forward to the next one.

What I love most as a developer is Opera's hard line interpretation of web standards and clean coding. As Brett mentioned - if I build a page and it displays properly in Opera - the code will validate as well. I am quickly leaving propriety coding behind. NS4.x ??? left that dog months ago! To ignore Web Standards just to appease the dying remnants of the NS crowd is NOT my choice... OPERA IS the Web Developer's best friend right now.
I've been bitten by the Opera bug (as in I love it!) and I am hardline web standards with all of my coding now.

Which actresses shined at the 2013 awards?The 2013 MTV Movie Awards brought an eclectic mix of fashion, Anytime MTV puts on an awards show, it is always different from any other awards show out there. The 2013 MTV Movie Awards continued the tradition. With both actors and musicians in attendance, the style always ventures anywhere from high-fashion to jeans, and all are welcome. Here are some of our favorites. 1
Zoe SaldanaThe Star Trek actress took a note from both sides of the spectrum, wearing high fashion while making it look somewhat casual. Her black top matched with a flowered lace skirt was perfect for the evening. 2
SnookiWhile pink sparkles would rarely ever make a best-dressed list, Snooki looked hot at Sunday night's awards. The new mom has recently lost a lot of weight, and the floor-length dress showed off all her best assets. With a new, longer hairstyle, she was brimming with confidence. Snookie gets an A for effort. Who won big at the 2013 MTV Movie Awards? >>3
Kerry WashingtonDeep down, we don't want to like Kerry Washington's black and orange dress, but there is something that just draws you to it. It is bold, it is powerful and it is Kerry Washington. The actress was stunning in the dress, and her bright personality pulled it off perfectly. 4
Emma WatsonWatson may have been the stand-out star of the night. The actress won the Trailblazer Award and showed up looking like what she is: a 22-year-old former child star trying to be taken seriously as an adult actress. The dress was playful, yet serious enough to be fashionable. It ended up being perfect for the MTV event. 2013 MTV Movie Awards: Why Rebel Wilson was an amazing host >>5
Brittany SnowSnow was at the awards ceremony as part of an ensemble in Pitch Perfect, but she stood out from the pack in her short navy-blue dress. The dress was revealing enough to be interesting, but it didn't give anything away. Brittany Snow accessorized her look with her Farbod Barsum Leela Clutch in Natural Sparkle Ring Lizard, glamorizing the dress with a touch of sparkle. Snow's blunt, short haircut was a scene-stealer, leaving the whole look picture-perfect. All photos courtesy Adriana M. Barraza/WENN.com

Our research explores coupled electron-nuclear dynamics in molecular, nanoscale, and condensed-phase systems. Ultimately, we seek to understand how structure and the surrounding environment impact charge evolution. Our methods are based on the fundamental equations of quantum mechanics, providing certainty that is unattainable by empirical approaches.
Currently, we are interested in the photo-activated processes of nanoscale materials and how quantum confinement can be advantageous to solar cell technology. For more information and research opportunities for graduate students and postdocs, please contact Dr. Jaeger.

I have an eye bolt in the middle of the joist with big fender washers... One of the washers is biting into the joist a bit, but I've been keeping an eye on it and it seems to be settled in now.

If you are really concerned about the load on the joist, you can hang "in line" with the joist...that is to say, both ends of the hammock connect to the same joist. That way you are not providing any sideways forces to your joists.

According to WPP, k102's unaudited revenues for the year ended 31 December 2011 were approximately €1.3m with gross assets as at the same date of approximately €1.2m.

A roaming farm animal eventually led to a tricky chase Wednesday night on the streets of Brooklyn.
Police say it all began when a goat was spotted roaming around Bedford-Stuyvesant outside the Interfaith Medical Center on Atlantic Avenue.
Officers had a tough time catching the animal but they were eventually able to wrangle him with the help of a security guard who actually used to catch goats in his native country.
"This animal is not dangerous. He's not going to harm nobody. And me especially, I grew up in...my father was a farmer, and we have a lot of goats and stuff and that was easy for me to catch it," said the guard.
Animal Care & Control says the 5-year-old male is healthy.
It's still unclear where the animal came from.

Mike Brown's your Coach of the Month
Mike Brown gets more than his fair share of heat, and I'm glad his efforts thus far this season were recognized with the Coach of the Month award that was announced Monday. He deserved the award. His team went 14-3 during that stretch, and more than that, it appears he has - already - successfully incorporated a number of new pieces and parts into his complex defensive system that is currently holding opponents to a league best 42% from the floor. But more than reference the award, I wanted to take a moment to say that Mike Brown's a good coach, and more than that, I'll argue he's the best coach possible for the job he currently holds. I didn't say best coach in the NBA, but I have, and do think he's the best fit for this Cavalier job and have no problem taking my chances with him at the helm going forward. Coaching in the NBA, coaching LeBron James at times, managing stars like Shaquille O'Neal, and navigating through situations like that of Delonte West's aren't as easy as picking up a controller and playing NBA 2K10. I think a lot of the knocks against Mike Brown aren't really all that fair, and I'm glad to see him garner some positive pub. If you want to blame Brown for the offense stagnating at times because LeBron is pounding the ball on the perimeter, than you have to credit Brown for getting LeBron to buy into his defensive philosophies and principals. Or credit him for being smart enough pick his battles. Do you think he actually draws up on the dry erase board for everybody to stand around and have LeBron dribble at the top of the key until the shot clock goes down to one and then tells him to shoot it then? Or do you think they're standing around because LeBron's not doing what everybody just talked about? Just asking. Fact is, LeBron's not going to run every play Mike Brown calls, or do everything Mike Brown says, he's a mega star, he doesn't have to. But Mike Brown is able to find a balance within that, and I don't think he gets the credit he deserves for things like that. Windhorst made the point about a month ago saying that if a guy like Larry Brown were the Cavaliers' coach LeBron would have run him out of town in a year. And frankly, that doesn't make LeBron wrong, or Larry Brown wrong it just means that situation wouldn't work. But Mike Brown has mostly worked, does mostly work, and I hope he continues to work his way to an NBA title...or else I will be mostly writing for days on end about how he should be fired immediately.

Midland Theatre
1228 Main Street,
Kansas City,
25 people favorited this theater
Showing 51 - 72 of 72 comments
Bad News for Kansas City's beautiful Midland Theater. The developers of the Power and Light district plan on converting the
Midland Theater into a super night club and take out the auditorium's main floor seats for most of them, tier it for table seating and install a dance floor. In additon, there will be some private boxes installed in the balcany and a lot of glitzy lighting etc. Everyone I know agrees that the Midland should be left as a performing arts center with traditional theater seating. If the stage were made larger, it could handle more touring shows.
The Empire Theater down the street has been gutted and should have been the theater turned into a "House of Blues" style night club.
The Midland is listed on the National Historic List – therefore, I do not thing the auditorium should be altered, which is planned.
AMC could easily build a new 6 or 8 screen digital theater on the Empire Theater block and have a win-win situation, especially since their world headqquarters is just down the street. Help save the Midland Theater
Hi,Warren,You missed the Virginia Theater of Danville,Va,of all places.The remarkable palace had 5,000 seats.Your list of the biggies needs that one.The list I'd pay to see is actual,real,certifiable movie palaces that still show scheduled theatrical releases.
The Robert Morton is now installed in the KC, MO Civic Center Music Hall, 13th and Wyandott. It is now a 4/27 Robert Morton.
It is understood this historic instrument is about to undergo massive changes to its original winding system to make the instrument
more "Wurlitzer-like".
An original Robert Morton organ can be a fine instrument when installed to its company's original standards and properly regulated.
A Robert-Morton organ Size 4/20 was installed in the Midland Theater in 1927. Note: Listed as Loew's Midland Theater.
The Midland seems to have booking problems by the news reports I have read. AMC wants to reposition the Midland when the Empire is renovated into a multi screen theatre as part of The Entertainment distict that will be built in this area. The Midlnad doesn't seem to book any Broadway shows like they had in the past. I would like more into if it is available.bruce
These are vintage photos of the Loew's Midland in Kansas City. Photo1. Photo2. Photo3. And Photo4.
The Midland hosts the Kansas City Pops during the season and The Phantom of the Opera every winter.
I used to attend roadshows here with my grandmother when I was a child in the 1960s. Incredibly ornate, massively huge movie palace was totally overwhelming to me as a child. I saw "The Sound of Music", "Thoroughly Modern Millie", "Funny Girl", "On A Clear Day" and "Fiddler on the Roof" here. We always sat in the center orchestra and I was awestruck at the size of the screen. Many happy memories of seeing great films in an unparalleled setting. I'm so happy to know that it still exists. I haven't been back to Kansas City in decades, but I spent many joyful hours in the past at this gorgeous theater.
The only AMC house I've been in that does not have cup holders!
So AMC is still running this house, though not as a movie theater? If so, that's pretty remarkable. I wonder if any other chains have repurposed their venues without selling or ababndoning them.
Tour of Missouri, Oklahoma and Kansas Theatres in 2004
From June 26 through July 1, 2004 the Theatre Historical Society of America will tour a number of theatres in Kansas City Missouri and surrounding areas, including theatres in Lamar, Joplin, Richmond, St. Joseph and Springfield, MO, as well as Miami, OK, and these cities in Kansas: Leavenworth, Kansas City, Emporia, El Dorado, Augusta, Wichita, Hutchinson, McPherson, Salina, Concordia, and Topeka. More information is contained on their web site: http://www.HistoricTheatres.org and special photos and information concerning the Kansas City theatres: UPTOWN and the MIDLAND is available on this temporary page of their site at: http://www2.hawaii.edu/~angell/thsa/fromarch.html A glossy brochure about this "Heart of America" Conclave is available from the Society's headquarters listed on their homepage, via E-mail to the Ex. Director, or via snail mail. Membership in the Society is not required to attend the Conclave and tour the theatres, but fees do apply as detailed on their site. Bring your camera and lots of film, for it is usually difficult or impossible to enter these theatres for photos, and some of them will surely not be with us in the years to come.

19-Stanley, Pittsburgh, 3,886
20-St. Louis (now Powell Hall), St. Louis, 3,881.
Warren could you list the 20 largest theatres in the U.S I also would be interested in seating compared to the size to the actual theatre. In recent years many theatres have been renovated or restored and there seating capacity reduced. If I am correct I think the top ten with theatres still standing would be 1 Radio City 2 Detroit Fox 3 St. Louis Fox 4 Atlanta Fox 5 Chicago Uptown 6 Boston Wang 7 Jersey Stanley 8 Kansas City Midland 9 Chicago Chicago 10 Pittsburg Stanley. But I could be wrong. I do know the four largest theatres West of the Mississippi would be 1. Oakland Paramount 2. Fox- Oakland 3. Seattle Paramount 4. Portland Portland. Only the Fox- Oakland hasn't been renovated or restored.brucec
The "Big Theatre List" published in 1991 by Theatre Historical Society of America gives the Midland's seating capacity as 3,573 and claims it was the 33rd largest movie/vaudeville theatre in the USA. According to that list, only 17 USA theatres had seating capacities of more than 4,000, with Radio City Music Hall as the largest in that group with 5,940, and the Minnesota/Radio City in Minneapolis as the smallest with 4,028.
Rather a pity the current photos shows only the back of the auditorium, since it is the stage aspect that shows the non-Opera House look of the dramatic proscenium when it originally had the two legs of the grand drapery descending from a plaster 'crown' and then upswept in arcs to mountings on the proscenium frame: a unique design, and most beautiful. Almost as nice as the original of the KINGS in Brooklyn!
In 1979 the Theatre Historical Soc. of America did an entire ANNUAL on this theatre, titled: "The MIDLAND THEATRE, Kansas City, MO" and the dozens of vintage photos therein reveal a most luxurious design by noted theatres architect Thomas Lamb, a biography of whom is included there. Latter day photos there reveal that the wonderful design of the upswept legs of the grand drapery on the proscenium, as originally installed, were not replaced during a recent refurbishment, and the photos reveal what a loss this is! Sixty-foot-long swags of fringed velvet would be impressive in any setting, but here with a royal crown motif as the center of the drapery it is a fitting and wonderful aura of design. The MIDLAND has been illustrated elsewhere as in the landmark book of 1927—1930: "American Theatres of Today" (which is in some libraries and sometimes available from www.Amazon.com,)) and it is also illustrated in other of the Society's publications, such as the 2003 ANNUAL about the San Francisco FOX theatre. The 42-page 1979 ANNUAL will please anyone loving beautiful theatres.
To obtain any available Back Issue of either "Marquee" or of its ANNUALS, simply go to the web site of the THEATRE HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF AMERICA at:
and notice on the sidebar of their first page the link "PUBLICATIONS: Back Issues List" and click on that and you will be taken to their listing where they also give ordering details. The "Marquee" magazine is 8-1/2x11 inches tall ('portrait') format, and the ANNUALS are also soft cover in the same size, but in the long ('landscape') format, and are anywhere from 26 to 40 pages. Should they indicate that a publication is Out Of Print, then it may still be possible to view it via Inter-Library Loan where you go to the librarian at any public or school library and ask them to locate which library has the item by using the Union List of Serials, and your library can then ask the other library to loan it to them for you to read or photocopy. [Photocopies of most THSA publications are available from University Microforms International (UMI), but their prices are exorbitant.]
Note: Most any photo in any of their publications may be had in large size by purchase; see their ARCHIVE link. You should realize that there was no color still photography in the 1920s, so few theatres were seen in color at that time except by means of hand tinted renderings or post cards, thus all the antique photos from the Society will be in black and white, but it is quite possible that the Society has later color images available; it is best to inquire of them.
Should you not be able to contact them via their web site, you may also contact their Executive Director via E-mail at:
Or you may reach them via phone or snail mail at:
Theatre Historical Soc. of America
152 N. York, 2nd Floor York Theatre Bldg.
Elmhurst, ILL. 60126-2806 (they are about 15 miles west of Chicago)
Phone: 630-782-1800 or via FAX at: 630-782-1802 (Monday through Friday, 9AM—4PM, CT)
The Midland, along with many other theatres in the area, will be visited this summer during the 2004 Conlave of the Theatre Historical Sociey of America in Kansas City. Further information can be found at www.historictheatres.org under the section headlined "2004 Conclave Sneak Preview."

And announcing the first-ever Hilde Susan Jaegtnes drama contest:I just wanted to let you [Harmon Leon] know that I love your Infiltrator projects. My two favorites so far have been the German comedian ["German Heat!," March 30] and the Christian headbanger ["Headbanging for Jesus!," Aug. 31]. You are very inventive and inconsiderate enough to realize the projects, which adds up to remarkable reading.
I have a little question as well. I've written a fair amount of absurd little plays that can't really be performed, but that are pretty digestible in writing. I was wondering if you thought that there would be a place for any of these little plays in SF Weekly? Personally, I think they would fit in perfectly, but I'm not sure I could convince anyone until they're actually there in print. What do you think?
Just to give you an idea of the concepts, I have written down the titles of the ones I like the best. If you like, you can read any of them to get a closer feel. Alternatively, if you think it's a doomed idea, just let me know, and I will do my best not to feel crushed.
1) There Are Ants in My Room
2) Discussion With the Pope
3) Bloodthirsty Paperclip
4) Ballistic in the Hospital
5) Psychic Toast
6) 2004 Post-election Unclogging of Political Pores (or: Everybody Should Live Together)
7) Random Indonesian Coffee Bean
8) Pretending Octopus
Hilde Susan Jaegtnes
San Francisco
Editor's note:Even if I were an octopus, there's no way I could pretend to pick the best play from this extraordinary list of titles. But our readers certainly can -- so it's time for a contest. E-mail us your pick for the best short play by Hilde Susan Jaegtnes, along with an explanation for the pick, and we'll publish the explanation -- and the play! -- as a Dog Bites exclusive. Send your picks to email@example.com. (Tiebreaker: your phonetic spelling of the correct pronunciation of Ms. Jaegtnes' name.)

Jesus isnt coming back?
Posted in the Louisville Forum
United States |
earthquake ''5.8" kills 12 italy, asteroid to skim past earths atmosphere, U.S. Kicks syria ambassadors out ''expels them'', man ate a mans face, euro crash plans are being discussed, bilderbergs and UN meetings happening un US, obama blatantly ignoring our constitution ''fundamentally changing'' america, china buying up US soil, all in a month and your telling me this isnt the last days? Whats gonna happen at london olympics jan27th?? Who knows? Pray for em.
Since: Feb 12 64 |
What do you mean fundamentally changing? America needs a change
United States |
well fundamentals = basics, our countries basics are the constitution, and no americas constitution is not the problem with america, its the people...greedy, whiny, self love, boastful, rude, arrogant, godless, immoral, addicted to porn and prescribed drugs, no common sense. The constitution is fine the people is what needs to change, especially the authorities..self serving, haughty, greedy there is no common sense anymore nor integrity, quit blaming our ''fundamentals'' and blame this filthy congress, cops, judges, lawyers, corporates, civilian's, military.
Since: Feb 12 64 |
I agree with everything you had said, and I do believe the world is coming to an end soon..I often wonder if people and (myself) will get their souls right with Jesus before that time comes.
United States |
yeah me too man, i struggle day to day to resist various temptations.
United States |
Who ever said he isn't coming back,all I can say is be$ieve what you want. I believe his will
Jhn 14:2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if [it were] not [so], I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
Jhn 14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am,[there] ye may be also. You either believe him or you don't. As for me and my family I choose to believe. |
United States |
I believe, the heading is in a phrase of a question and underneath is signs thats happened just in a month, i know he will...
wow, well well well....
What will dear ole jeebus do when he comes back? I mean he is surely on his way...I mean its been over 2000 years! Did you know that jesus said he would be back before those listening to him tasted death? Did you know that the people were waiting on jesus to come back 2000 years ago? http://bible.cc/matthew/16-28.htm LIES! People had sold everything they owned because jesus told them too....they waited....waited.....waited... .and waited until they started to starve! And no jeesus....hummmmmmm what about that? It bull people, just use the internet and library to investigate what you believe..... stop this laziness of just repeating things you have heard since childhood....investigate your religion and the history of earth before the bible books were put together (yes the bible was put together from many different books over many many years....the new testament 40-50 years after jeesus' death) You people do not investigate or question what you believe...and you are not going to win.....knowledge will crush your false gawd. Hey non believers, atheists, and thinkers its our time .start being vocal! Start making the religious feel socially embarrassed! Lets do to religion and god/jesus belief what we did to smoking! Lets work to make these people really keep their religious ideologies and harmful dogmas to themselves! Lets make public displays of god worship socially stupid! Its time to criticize religious thinking! Oh yeah...and the pope is infallible! HAHAHHAH! |
United States |
jesus did come back, skip to matt.28, maybe you should read the bible with humility and love instead of hate and arrogance |
Why pray, the God you are praying to is not doing anything to stop these events. Is this showing love or is this free will? It seems to me that fear is what you are preaching. I thought the NT was a book of love. I love the signs that say, Beware, Jesus is coming. I feel like I am being threatened. Don't get too excited, I go to church and read the Bible, but I do not cherry pick like most do. Am I to be afraid to speak my mine, especially since the Inquisitions are long past (or are they). |

"earthquake ''5.8" kills 12 italy" Sigh...there have always been earthquakes. It's nothing new.
"asteroid to skim past earths atmosphere" Earth has always been bombarded. Take a close look at the moon. "U.S. Kicks syria ambassadors out ''expels them'' You think that's the first time shit like that has happened? "man ate a mans face" How is that worse than burning people alive or using some kind of medieval torture device? "euro crash plans are being discussed" Go read about the Great Depression. Religious nuts were making your same silly claims...we recovered. |

Healthcare Reform, the Economy and the Obama Agenda
Produced by:
President Obama is going all out for healthcare reform. Some say it's crucial to the rest of his agenda. How did he do at last night's news conference? Have new media changed the nature of a familiar debate. Also, federal agents go after massive corruption rings in New Jersey, and the President, the Harvard scholar and the Cambridge policeman.

Making News
New Jersey Corruption Runs Deep ()
Federal agents rained down in New Jersey today, arresting 44 people charged with public corruption and high-volume, international money-laundering. Among those arrested were city mayors, city legislators and Jewish rabbis. Amir Efrati is reporting the story for the Wall Street Journal.
- Amir Efrati: Legal Reporter, Wall Street Journal
Main Topic
Healthcare Reform, the Economy and the Obama Agenda ()
Recent reports on the progress of healthcare reform have portrayed a President battling his own party in Congress while his popularity ratings decline. Republicans -- and some Democrats, say he's moving too fast toward what some call "a government takeover" and a step toward "socialism." In his press conference last night, the President pushed what he called an "affordable" plan for "quality care," not financed "on the backs of middle class families." Which messages appeal to American voters? Is a familiar debate being re-framed in the age of the Internet?

Reporter's Notebook
Obama Wades into Racial Issue during Press Conference ()
At last night's news conference, the President was asked about the arrest of Harvard scholar Henry Louis Gates, who had forgotten his keys and was arrested while trying to get into his home. Obama said that his friendship with "Skip" Gates could make him biased, but he was critical of the arrest for disorderly conduct, charges that later were dropped. Stanford Law Professor Richard Ford is author of The Race Card: How Bluffing about Bias Makes Race Relations Worse.

In an attempt to reduce reliance on immigrant workers, Colorado has found a cheaper substitute: prison inmates. The Colorado Department of Corrections is paying farmers $9.60 an hour for female inmates to work on their farms. Immigrant laborers had charged $3.00 less per hour. The inmates are paid $.60 per hour. The name for this, in my view, is slave labor. As I wrote here, the inmates shouldn't stand for this and neither should we.
Submitted by JSN (not verified) on Fri, 2007-06-01 14:33.
This identical practice is also used by some county jails. In some states the prison inmates are paid the standard wage by the private employer but the prison takes out a long list of fees so the prisoner if lucky may get to keep about 20% of what they are paid.
I doubt that this is forced labor. I suspect the women are happy to do anything that will get them outside of their prison.
Submitted by Kevin Jones (not verified) on Fri, 2007-06-01 12:33.
Prisoners, having been deprived of their liberty by due process of law, are already slaves whether they work or not. There is such a thing as justifiable slavery. It seems more obviously unjust that free labor(illegal or not) has to compete with convicts than that convicts face forced labor as part of their sentences.
Submitted by Tim Allport (not verified) on Thu, 2007-05-31 23:59.
Right on Counselor. My views have done a 180 on the issue. Cheap labor is a primary goal. But many inmates need that .60 an hour which is high in prison. We can do more from the outside.
We also need to steadily decrease the profit motive for illegal drugs and for what now must also be described as a prison industrial complex. The continued expansion of privatized prisons is another notable example of failed public policy and an example of our society ignoring an issue that could ultimately bankrupt a lot more than our finances.

Long believed dead, Phibes arises from a state of suspended animation, in search of the means to bring his deceased wife back to the land of the living.

Bitcoin hits record exchange values with Cyprus banking crisis
Forget gold. The hot investment during this time of economic uncertainty in Europe appears to be Bitcoin.
Earlier this month, the peer-to-peer virtual currency was trading at a record $40 for one Bitcoin, more than doubling its value since January, when it was languishing in the midteens. In the past three weeks, it has doubled again, trading as high as $95 today.
All told, it's an increase of nearly 350 percent in the past two months, and much of it is because of the banking crisis in Cyprus.

3366 bicycle brands |
Bicycle Brands list updated
02/13/2013 |
Print the
total 72 Page Listing |
In the early 1970's,
The Wheelmen and member Dr. Charles Hetzel started compiling a list of bicycle brands made in America.
The list included the company that either manufactured or distributed
the bicycle as well as the city, state and date the bicycle was made. Some
of the brands listed were identified by bicycle name plate badges. Others
were identified by manufacturer's catalogs, advertisements, business
directories and/or bicycle industry listings. The list has continued to grow
throughout the years and now includes 3,150 bicycles between 1890 and 1918.
Many of the bicycle companies used numbers to distinguish models. Starting with Number 1 and going up in some cases greater than 600. Also generic terms such as "Roadster", "Ladies", "Gents" and "Racer" were used to identify models. Please note that the list does not include all the companies that used these titles to describe a brand. Note: If anyone knows of a bicycle brand that is not listed on this page and would like to contribute to this listing, please email Wheelmen Librarian Ross Hill with supporting documentation such as a photo of a name badge on or off the bicycle, or any ads from period magazines, catalogs, business directories, or newspapers, etc. Your input would be greatly appreciated.

The Begum's Millions
by Jules Verne Arthur B. Evans Stanford L. Luce Peter SchulmanWhen two European scientists unexpectedly inherit an Indian rajah's fortune, each builds an experimental city of his dreams in the wilds of the American Northwest. France-Ville is a harmonious urban community devoted to health and hygiene, the specialty of its French founder, Dr. Francois Sarrasin. Stahlstadt, or City of Steel, is a fortress-like factory town devoted to the manufacture of high-tech weapons of war. Its German creator, the fanatically pro-Aryan Herr Schultze, is Verne's first truly evil scientist. In his quest for world domination and racial supremacy, Schultze decides to showcase his deadly wares by destroying France-Ville and all its inhabitants. Both prescient and cautionary, The Begum's Millions is a masterpiece of scientific and political speculation and constitutes one of the earliest technological utopia/dystopias in Western literature. This Wesleyan edition features notes, appendices, and a critical introduction as well as all the illustrations from the original French edition.
From the Earth to the Moon
by Jules VerneWritten almost a century before the daring flights of the astronauts, Jules Verne's prophetic novel of man's race to the stars is a classic adventure tale enlivened by broad satire and scientific acumen. When the members of the elite Baltimore Gun Club find themselves lacking any urgent assignments at the close of the Civil War, their president, Impey Barbicane, proposes that they build a gun big enough to launch a rocket to the moon. But when Barbicane's adversary places a huge wager that the project will fail and a daring volunteer elevates the mission to a "manned" flight, one man's dream turns into an international space race. A story of rip-roaring action, humor, and wild imagination, From the Earth to the Moon is as uncanny in its accuracy and as filled with authentic detail and startling immediacy as Verne's timeless masterpieces 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and Around the World in Eighty Days. From the Paperback edition.
Invasion of the Sea
by Jules VerneJules Verne, celebrated French author of Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea and Around the World in 80 Days, wrote over 60 novels collected in the popular series "Voyages Extraordinaires." A handful of these have never been translated into English, including Invasion of the Sea, written in 1904 when large-scale canal digging was very much a part of the political, economic, and military strategy of the world's imperial powers.Instead of linking two seas, as existing canals (the Suez and the Panama) did, Verne proposed a canal that would create a sea in the heart of the Sahara Desert. The story raises a host of concerns -- environmental, cultural, and political. The proposed sea threatens the nomadic way of life of those Islamic tribes living on the site, and they declare war. The ensuing struggle is finally resolved only by a cataclysmic natural event. This Wesleyan edition features notes, appendices and an introduction by Verne scholar Arthur B. Evans, as well as reproductions of the illustrations from the original French edition.

Journey to the Center of the Earth
by Jules VerneThe intrepid Professor Lindenbrock embarks upon the strangest expedition of the nineteenth century: a journey down an extinct Icelandic volcano to the Earth's very core. In his quest to penetrate the planet's primordial secrets, the geologist--together with his quaking nephew Axel and their devoted guide, Hans--discovers an astonishing subterranean menagerie of prehistoric proportions. Verne's imaginative tale is at once the ultimate science fiction adventure and a reflection on the perfectibility of human understanding and the psychology of the questor. As David Brin notes in his Introduction, though Verne never knew the term "science fiction," Journey to the Centre of the Earth is "inarguably one of the wellsprings from which it all began."From the Trade Paperback edition.

Summary | Excerpt | Reviews | Beyond the book | Readalikes | Genres & Themes | Author Bio
When Amy Clampitt's first collection, The Kingfisher, was published, it was hailed as that rare first book that "signals a major poet in full bloom" (Los Angeles Times). Its author was sixty-three years old. Over the next eleven years, Clampitt produced four additional, major collections. Now, the most essential poems from these five volumes are gathered together.
Clampitt was an impassioned observer of the natural world, the delights of which color many of these poems: writing of the fog, she described "a stuff so single / it might almost be lifted, / folded over, crawled underneath / or slid between, as nakedness- / caressingsheets." Such was the texture of her language, too. She was a traveler, reporting back from England and Greece, from California and Maine, and from her native Midwest. An Iowa transplant to New York, the descendant of pioneers, she wrote of prairies and subways; of the movements of wildflowers, people, and ideas; and of the widespread modern experience of uprootedness.
Here is a treasure of Amy Clampitt's verse, for those who are reading her for the first time, as well as for those who have long admired her.
iola, kansas
Riding all night, the bus half empty, toward the interior,
among refineries, trellised and turreted illusory cities,
the crass, the indispensable wastefulness of oil rigs
offshore, of homunculi swigging at the gut of a continent:
the trailers, the semis, the vans, the bumper stickers,
slogans in day- glo invoking the name of Jesus, who knows
what it means: the air waves, the brand name, the backyard
Barbie- doll barbecue, graffiti in video, the burblings,
the dirges: heart like a rock, I said Kathy Im lost,
the scheme is a mess, weve left Oklahoma, its cattle,
sere groves of pecan trees interspersing the horizonless
belch and glare, the alluvium of the auto junkyards,
were in Kansas now, weve turned off the freeway,
were meandering, as again night falls, among farmsteads,
the little towns with the name of a girl on the watertower,
the bandstand in the park at the center, the churches
alight from within, perpendicular ...
Amy Clampitt relished the chance... to reveal the immense power that words have to create the world instead of merely explaining it. Seeing, for Clampitt, encompassed all five senses: her poems, like the flora she loved so much, run rampant with sights, sounds, smells, tastes, and textures, and a rich harvest awaits anyone who delves into this selection of her best work... [she] brought a fresh way of seeing to American verse, and this edition, despite a few shortcomings, abundantly displays the bracing light that her words shone on the surrounding world.
(Reviewed by Marnie Colton).
Full Review (910 words).
About Amy Clampitt
Upon publication of her book of poems The Kingfisher in 1983, Amy Clampitt became one of the most highly regarded poets in America. Born in 1920 to Quaker parents and raised on a farm in rural Iowa, she graduated from Grinnell College, and from that time on lived mainly in New York City, later studying at Columbia University and the New School for Social Research. Throughout the 1940s and 1950s, Clampitt worked as a secretary at Oxford University Press, as a librarian at The Audubon Society, and as a freelance editor while she attempted unsuccessfully to write novels. In the 1960s she turned her attention to poetry, and in 1974 she published a small volume of poetry titled Multitudes, Multitudes; thereafter her work ...
If you liked Selected Poems, try these:
A dazzling story of obsessive love emerges in Cynthia Zarin's luminous new book inspired and inhabited by the title character of Nabokovs novel Ada, or Ardor: A Family Chronicle, who was the lifelong love of her half brother, Van.
A major event in American poetry: The poets own selection of more than two hundred poems, offering both longtime followers and new readers a stunning retrospective of her earlier work as well as a generous selection of powerful new poems.

Tips for Buying a Thermos for the Cold Weather Ahead
A thermos is a great idea for anyone that doesn't work in an office and needs to keep their beverages hot or cold while on the road or working onsite. Unlike a thermal coffee mug, a thermos is larger and may hold several cups of your beverage, and they work for hot and cold beverages alike and can also be used for soups and stews.
- Amazing
- Inspiring
- Funny
- Scary
- Weird
- Important
The word 'thermos' actually started as a brand name several decades ago but today it's used to describe this insulated beverage holder of any brand, and since they can be expensive, deciding on the right one to buy is important.
The best thermos will be a double-walled, stainless steel construction. The double wall allows heat or cold air to settle between the walls so your food or beverage is more protected. Stainless steel will last longer than any other material and is more durable than glass. Plastic may release BPAs, which are dangerous chemicals, into your food or drink. When you use a stainless steel thermos, you cannot heat it in the microwave before using but its safety and durability are key factors.
The type of thermos you choose and its size are also important. For those on the go, a thermos with a long shoulder strap is good so you don't need to carry it in your hands. If you have a lunchbox or lunch bucket you take with you such as to a job-site, you may want a thermos that fits in the box, in the top. If you don't want one that small, a shoulder strap can keep your thermos from being lost or misplaced.
Be sure to invest in a thermos that is large enough for your needs. You may assume you'll only carry a cup of coffee or two with you to the job-site but once you realize how nice it is to have fresh brewed coffee or to be able to enjoy hot soup while out on the road, you'll realize the importance of a thermos that is large enough for you. A nice cup on the top is also good, and you may also want a separate handle on the side or top for easy carrying when you don't use the shoulder strap.
Some thermoses have additional elements such as a small hole in the lid you can open for a quick sip without unscrewing the thermos, and others even have a built-in tea strainer! Take the time to shop all these additional elements for your thermos so you can find what works best for you. This will keep you toasty warm on the job-site this winter.

We just got back from an incredible trip to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. This was exactly the kind of vacation I needed right now—a rented house in the mountains overlooking the whole city and ocean that came with a house manager and cook, a beautiful outdoor pool/lounge, five bedrooms each with its own bathroom, an open-air living room and kitchen (plus flat-screen TV), and just the right amount of charm and quaintness you'd want in a massive Mexican villa (the owners are friends of my mother's so we got a great deal on it). But the best part: The hardest decisions we had to make on this trip were what we wanted for breakfast, lunch and dinner; what, if anything, we wanted to do each day (we went sailing, see photo); and whether or not we needed more beer from the store (which we always did of course). I haven't been that relaxed and pampered in…well…maybe ever.Read Full Post

Last week was a turning point in my life: I left my post as managing editor of Playboy.com. Wednesday was officially my last day at Playboy's headquarters in Chicago—a place I've considered my home away from home for nearly a decade. I essentially grew up at Playboy. When I started as the copy editor I was a 27-year-old single girl about town (I simultaneously wrote a nightlife column for Chicago magazine during seven of those years and lived the life I wrote about). Now, I'm a 37-year-old mom and wife; a career woman with a family. Saying goodbye was bittersweet: Those were life-changing years for me and my career—I worked with some of the most talented writers, editors, photographers, designers, producers and ad execs in the business, including Mr. Playboy himself. I feel lucky to have been a part of history. And I loved every second of it. So the obvious question now is: What's next?Read Full Post

Remember when I wrote about Preston's epic tantrums back in April, when he was 19 months old? And then again in August right before he turned 2, I wrote about these inner demons that seemed to be taking over his mind and body, rendering him (and me) inconsolable and slightly crazy? Sounds pretty harsh now looking back at those blogs, but I'm happy to report that Preston seems to be past his terrible twos, or whatever we're calling them now. It's been about two months now that I've noticed him maturing before my eyes. And it's been the most amazing thing to watch…Read Full Post

This decision about where to send my son to preschool next year, when he turns three, is on my mind constantly. A lot of preschool programs are "play based" at his age, so in essence they're not that different than the playgroups he has on a daily basis with our nanny and her circle of nanny friends in the neighborhood. I finally decided not to enroll him in a regular preschool program until next year for that reason. Our nanny takes care of Preston full time (four days a week/10 hours a day), and we usually have him enrolled in a class or two per season (he just finished an eight-week gymnastics class that my husband was taking him to on Thursdays; and I'm enrolling him in a preschool prep class starting in January—yes, preschool prep). So why do I feel guilty about waiting till he's three to put him in preschool?Read Full Post

We're the kind of parents that take our toddler everywhere, and we've always been that way. When Preston was just an infant we toted him to dinner all the time (he celebrated our first anniversary with us at the Cape Cod Room at The Drake Hotel, where we got married, when he was three weeks old), and we used to bring him to a popular neighborhood bar to watch football games on the weekends. Would we get dirty looks from other patrons? Sure. Did we care? Nope.Read Full Post

Halloween used to be my favorite time of year. I once postponed having back surgery (just a microdiscectomy) until after Halloween was over, because I didn't want to miss out on all the parties and chances to dress up (serious dedication, I know). But ever since I had Preston 26 months ago, I haven't dressed up or gone to any adult costume parties and—honestly?—something seems missing from my life. So to fill the void I put extra effort into thinking up the perfect Halloween costume for Preston, but it wasn't cheap.Read Full Post

So now that the cat's out of the proverbial bag and I've revealed to the world that I've been going through IVF, I've had a little bit of blogger's remorse I admit. But being a blogger means there's a very thin line between your personal life and … well … your blog. After last week's post went up, I experienced the requisite after-shock, but then I got a handful of sincere emails from friends and acquaintances, people who've taken the time to share their own fertility struggles with me, to reassure me that I'm not alone, that it's all worth it in the end, and that I have people to turn to when the going gets tough. And that was all I needed to hear…Read Full Post

Along with the rest of my friends, I'd been looking for signs of her pregnancy since the season finale of "Giuliana and Bill" aired at the end of September; I've been tuning into E! every night just to look for any hint of a baby bump, to see if this third round of IVF was successful for Giuliana and Bill Rancic. I don't know a single mom, or Chicagoan, who hasn't been watching and sincerely pulling for her. Though I have some Chicago connections to Bill (and I interviewed him in 2004 after he won The Apprentice), I've only merely met him a few times. I don't know Giuliana either, but they both happen to be friends of good friends of ours, and being from Chicago and watching their show religiously, I feel like we're much more than that, especially because I've had my own struggles with infertility...Read Full Post

All parents think their kid is the funniest, cutest person on earth. How many times has your kid said or done something, and you wish you'd had a camera on him? After I saw that YouTube video with the twin babies talking to each other, I was convinced: If I can just catch Preston in a moment like that, the video would not only go viral, he'd be discovered by a talent scout looking for an adorable kid for their commercial or shoot, and we'd finally be able to cash in on his cuteness. I'm sitting on a goldmine here, people.Read Full Post

I just got back from a beautiful wedding in Folly Beach, South Carolina for my cousin Tara's wedding. It was magnificent, right down to the perfect 70-degree weather—and almost as magnificent as the happy couple. Nic and Tara have been together for six years, and my dad (who's a judge) officiated their wedding (see picture). It was the most beautiful and laid-back wedding I've ever attended—on a beach, the bride and groom walked barefoot down an aisle lit up by tiki torches right at dusk while the tide was low. We all stood around watching them exchange heartfelt vows about supporting each other's dreams, loving each other unconditionally, and promising to be each other's best friends while they grow old together. I cried, of course (I always cry). But I also cried because I couldn't help but think of my own wedding, three years, two businesses, new jobs, a house, a dog, a two-year-old, and about 200 sleepless nights ago...Read Full Post
