The Mirror Empire by Kameron Hurley
"With vividly inventive world building and a fast-paced plot, The Mirror Empire opens a smart, brutal, and ambitious epic fantasy series. Book two is already on my must-read list."
- Kate Elliott, author of the Spiritwalker series
From the award-winning author of God's War comes a stunning new series…
On the eve of a recurring catastrophic event known to extinguish nations and reshape continents, a troubled orphan evades death and slavery to uncover her own bloody past… while a world goes to war with itself.
In the frozen kingdom of Saiduan, invaders from another realm are decimating whole cities, leaving behind nothing but ash and ruin. As the dark star of the cataclysm rises, an illegitimate ruler is tasked with holding together a country fractured by civil war, a precocious young fighter is asked to betray his family and a half-Dhai general must choose between the eradication of her father's people or loyalty to her alien Empress.
Through tense alliances and devastating betrayal, the Dhai and their allies attempt to hold against a seemingly unstoppable force as enemy nations prepare for a coming together of worlds as old as the universe itself.
In the end, one world will rise – and many will perish.

Praise for The Mirror Empire:
STARRED REVIEW: "This is a hugely ambitious work, bloody and violent, with interestingly gender-flipped politics and a host of factions to keep straight, as points of view switch often. Although it is a challenging read, the strong narrative thread in this new series from Hurley (God's War) pulls readers through the imaginative tangle of multiple worlds and histories colliding."
- Library Journal
STARRED REVIEW: "Hurley (Rapture) reuses old tropes to excellent effect, interweaving them with original elements to create a world that will fascinate and delight her established fans and appeal to newcomers. Readers will blaze through this opening installment and eagerly await the promised sequel."
- Publishers Weekly
"The Mirror Empire is a fresh, vigorous, and gripping entrant into the epic fantasy genre, able to stand toe-to-toe with any of the heavyweight series out there. I cannot recommend this novel highly enough."
- SF Revu
"The Mirror Empire is epic in every sense of the word. Hurley has built a world – no, worlds – in which cosmology and magic, history and religion, politics and prejudice all play crucial roles. Prepare yourself for sentient plants, rifts in the fabric of reality, and remarkable powers that wax and wane with the stars themselves. Forget all about tentative, conventional fantasy; there's so much great material in here that Hurley needs more than one universe in order to fit it all in."
- Brian Staveley, author of The Emperor's Blades
"Taking epic fantasy down challenging and original paths. Thoughtful and thought-provoking with every twist and turn."
- Juliet E. McKenna
"For me [The Mirror Empire] did all the things a fantasy should do — holding our own societies up to the light by reflecting off worlds that are very different. Add in a magic system where the users are only powerful some of the time, and semi sentient vegetation that is possibly more of a threat than the magic users, and I happily sank into this book with a satisfied sigh."
- Francis Knight
- Courtney Schafer, author of The Whitefire Crossing
"The Mirror Empire is the most original fantasy I've read in a long time, set in a world full of new ideas, expanding the horizons of the genre. A complex and intricate book full of elegant ideas and finely-drawn characters."
- Adrian Tchaikovsky, author of The Shadows of the Apt series and finalist for the 2014 Gemmel Legend Award
"There's a powerful yet elegant brutality in The Mirror Empire that serves notice to traditional epic fantasy: move over, make way, an intoxicating new blend of storytelling has arrived. These are pages that will command your attention."
- Bradley Beaulieu, author of The Lays of Anuskaya trilogy
"With vividly inventive world building and a fast-paced plot, The Mirror Empire opens a smart, brutal, and ambitious epic fantasy series. Book two is already on my must-read list."
- Kate Elliott , author of the Spiritwalker Trilogy
"The Mirror Empire takes look at epic fantasy patriarchy & gives it a firm kick in the balls…[it] will be the most important book you read this year."
- Alex Ristea, Ristea's Reads
Praise for Kameron:
"Kameron Hurley is ferociously imaginative – with the emphasis on the ferocious. She writes novels that are smart, dark, visceral and wonderfully, hectically entertaining."
- Lauren Beukes, author of Zoo City and The Shining Girls
"Kameron Hurley's writing is the most exciting thing I've seen on the genre page… What Hurley's writing has (and it's something not one in a dozen genre practitioners seems able to generate) is passion. It doesn't hurt that there's also a rare freshness to the material, and a heady dash of high octane noir worked into the mix."
- Richard K. Morgan, author of The Steel Remains and the Takeshi Kovacs novels
"…where some writers might focus on high-tech weapons or explosive battles in space, Hurley brings things down to a personal level, recalling more the toughminded realism of Chris Moriarty's Spin State…"
- New York Review of Science Fiction
"God's War was part slow burn, part explosive action… in the end the novel was utterly compelling."
- Tor.com
"Hurley's world-building is phenomenal… (she) smoothly handles tricky themes such as race, class, religion, and gender without sacrificing action."
- Publishers Weekly
"The ostensibly ground-breaking, jaw-dropping ultra-progressive newness of God's War is important because it isn't important. God's War is remarkable not because it pushes the boundaries of science fiction, but because it is a novel in which those boundaries are already gone."
– Jared Shurin, Pornokitsch

BONHAM - Strong winds overnight caused some damage in Bonham.
Sixty-to-seventy mile per hour winds caused damage at Bonham High School, where a fieldhouse roof was peeled away.
A storage building was also damaged at a tractor supply company, and a power pole blew over on Main Street, causing some power outages.
There were no injuries reported.

virarneeda says: It's like Freelancer, so play it. And if you didn't like Freelancer, have a look at my 'HORRIBLE games' GOGmix for games that might suit your (lack of) taste.
virarneeda says: The very first RTS to do away with the worst aspect of real time strategy: base building. Memorizing build orders is NOT strategy! A must have for RTS fans who aren't afraid to get brutally fucked in the ass by the unforgiving AI, too!
virarneeda says: Quite a bit easier than its' predecessor, Ground Control 2 is still extremely enjoyable. When it came out, I stayed up for 3 days straight playing it. I'm not even fucking joking.
Treat your GOGmix as your child - name it! ;)
Coming up with a cool and descriptive title should be your first priority. Being original is in your best interest - bet you wanna get lots of nice votes, right? Go all crazy if you want, but be sure to keep it civil!
So, what are the ingredients?
Pick a game that belongs in your GOGmix from the list, or find it by typing something in the text field. Relevance is key here - Earthworm Jim doesn't quite fit the "Sexiest heroines of all time" bill now, does it?
Justify your choice... Or not!
OK, so it's not required, but now that you went through the trouble of adding a game, telling everyone why you did it would be a nice finishing touch. After you're done here, add another game, rinse, repeat.

A Harrisburg man convicted regarding the statutory rape of a 14 year old girl has been sentenced to four years intensive supervised probation. Scotts Bluff County District Court Judge Randy Lippstreu sentenced 20 year old Robert Cross Tuesday after he entered a plea in late April to a lesser charge of attempted first degree sexual assault. Cross, who served one day in jail, was ordered to spend nine more days in jail and take part in individual counseling.
Court documents indicate the victim told Police she was at Cross' Scottsbluff apartment last June when they began kissing. Police say when Cross wanted to undress the girl she said no but Cross persisted.
The victim told a school counselor late last year, and Cross was arrested January 4th following a Police interview.

Totally great picture! This reminds me of the Kibbles N Bits Lean commercial from like 10 years ago, when a gang of rough-looking dogs chanted, "Kibbles N Bits Lean. Kibbles N Bits Lean." As they walked down a shady alley, the camera showed the backs of the dogs, and they were all leaning. I know these aren't dogs, but they reminded me of that commercial. That was a great ad. They should bring it back.
(Editor's note: Couldn't find it, but here's a really old/kickass Kibbles N Bits commercial.)

"I just finished Ken Bruen's The Devil, which shows that hardboiled mysteries still can surprise and delight. If you took the best features of 21st century noir and threw them into a Waring blender with Nathaniel Hawthorne's Young Goodman Brown, the result would read like The Devil. It speaks about how we face evil and sometimes make it up for ourselves because our lives are empty without it."
Michael Wiley, author of A Bad Night's Sleep

Element Labs, Inc. recently announced the release of Versa™ TUBE, an LED-based light tube controlled by a video signal. This cutting-edge product gives designers unrivaled content creation capabilities with an expansive color range and high light output. The introduction of Versa TUBE solidifies Element Labs' reputation as a supplier of innovative LED products to the entertainment, architecture, and signage industries.
"There's been much interest in the LED tube concept, but Versa TUBE is the first product that truly delivers on the vision," commented Nils Thorjussen, President of Element Labs Inc. "This has been made possible by adapting proven Versa TILE technology for the tube. The result is an exceptionally bright product with the same broad color range."
Control is easily handled via the standard Versa Drive video processor, so there are no constraints on the looks that can be programmed. From vibrant patterns to organic flows, the tubes come to life with flowing, ebbing streams of colored light.
Versa TUBE features 16 pixels per meter controllable by a Versa DRIVE D1 video processor. The unit is rated IP66 and has a built-in power supply.
Preproduction units of Versa TUBE were recently on display at the retail stores of Apple Computer to help launch the iPod Mini. A large array of the product is also currently being used on the German production of Saturday Night Fever.

Bayer to reduce number of cuts
July 12, 2004
The Associated Press reports drug and chemical maker Bayer AG will reduce the number of job cuts planned for this year and next to 3,000 instead of 4,000, the company said Monday. The reduction in the number of jobs being eliminated came as part of an agreement with employee representatives on securing production and jobs, the company said. The 3,000 cuts represent less than 3 percent of its overall work force. Bayer began trimming its work force after its business ran into trouble from the withdrawal of its cholesterol-lowering drug Baycol, also called Lipobay, in 2001. The Leverkusen-based company had 114,300 employees at the end of the first quarter.

This is what happens when you give a nobody a little bit of power of others:
A UK police force has apologised to an animal rights campaigner after a Police Community Support Officer said that a protest group had links to "known terrorists".
Ali Firth, 49, was filming a small demo outside outside Bramley pet supermarket Dogs 4 Us, when she was told by an officer to stop filming or her camera would be confiscated.
A police community support officer told Ms Firth that the protest group "is connected to known terrorists".
She asked the officer to elaborate but was told: "No – it would breach data protection."
Ms Firth, a disabilities support worker from Horncastle, Lincolnshire, formally complained about "unprofessional behaviour".
A West Yorkshire police spokesman said the footage had been viewed and the officers involved had been "advised accordingly".
A company spokesman for Dogs 4 Us said the protesters had shouted "untruths" and were "just a nuisance to society".
A Police Community Support Officer is not a real police officer…

Small Frog
Catches flies and jumps.
Vocalizations (on-click and while moving)
I love my Little Frog, mostly because I find him usefull in battle!
If you want to start with the highest level one, grab one in Zangarmarsh. From the looks of the wowhead battlepet maps, they seem to populate on the south side generally.
awesome little pet! I found a level 5 rare quality one in loch modan just near the dried up loch, and man, it was REALLY hard to capture. kept turning my pets into frogs (which leaves them unable to attack for a round) and healing itself. really excited to make use of it it future battles.
The rare quality version of this is a colour-changer, meaning it will change between different colours every time you summon it.
got mine in northern barrens
Mine changes color every time I summon him, which is neat! Does anyone else's frog do this or is a strange glitch?
Can be caught in Elwynn Forest around Crystal Lake. They are plentiful on the southeastern side of the lake.
Caught mine outside of right outside of Wailing Caverns in the Lushwater Oasis.

Felix Hernandez is kind of like Seattle's child. We've watched him grow, seen him through good times and bad, and have a special affection for him. He's a great pitcher, sure, but there's something special about watching him grow up and become the player he is today.
Today, Felix Hernandez is perfect. On Wednesday afternoon, he saw 27 batters and retired them all in order. Absolute perfection, and a pitching performance unlike anything I've ever seen out of him.
But in order to get a feel for exactly how fun this was, we need to see what our Mariners blog thinks. Lookout Landing is notorious for comment meltdowns. The community is superb, so you know they brought their "A" game today.
The comments number well above 1,000. And the explosion of joy in the comments when Felix finished off the perfect game is something special. This, friends, is why our communities are so great.

On December 3rd, one day before my 44th birthday I will embark on a 22 Days challenge to go completely vegan, or as I prefer to call it, plant-based!! This all began a few months back when a good friend and vegan challenged me to embrace a "plant-based breakfast" everyday. Full Story

Spokane, WA - The season's penultimate home game ended like so many others before it, with a crooked number in the error column and runners left on base. Spokane scored twice in the first but Salem-Keizer rattled off five unanswered runs as the Volcanoes defeated the Indians 5-2 in front of 4,967 fans at Avista Stadium for Breast Cancer Awareness Night & Pre-Game Pitch for the Cure presented by Mike's Hard Lemonade, The Big 99.9 Coyote Country, and KXLY Newsradio 920.
The Indians used their speed to manufacture runs in the first, scoring once as a double steal by Christopher Garia and Jake Skole allowed Garia to score on an errant throw from Volcanoes catcher Dashenko Ricardo. Skole advanced to third on the play and then came home on an RBI groundout from Royce Bolinger.
Bolinger finished the game 3-4 to raise his average to .300 while Garia's first inning double was the only other hit allowed by Salem-Keizer's staunch pitching staff.
Starter Eric Brooks went four solid frames, striking out four and walking just one. Richard Alvarez continued his remarkable season in relief with a trio of punch outs in two scoreless frames, lowering his ERA to 2.64 in the process.
Before tonight's game, the Indians hosted the seventh annual Pitch for the Cure breast cancer walk to raise money for the Eastern Washington Affiliate of the Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Jerseys worn by Indians players tonight will be available in an online auction starting Tuesday at spokaneindians.com.
Tomorrow is the series finale against the Salem-Keizer Volcanoes and is Season Finale

Duke coach Mike
Krzyzewski says the new-look Atlantic Coast Conference could be the best
basketball league in the country — and should act like it.
ACC is growing to 15 teams next season when Pittsburgh, Syracuse and
Notre Dame join. National champion Louisville comes aboard the following
year to replace Big Ten-bound Maryland.
Krzyzewski said Wednesday
that "if you really believe this could be the greatest conference ever,
what are all the things that the greatest conference ever would do?"
during his annual "K Academy" fantasy camp at Duke, he said the league
needs to "look at the total package of what we have" and "think outside
conventional ways" in everything from its preseason media day to its
league schedule and postseason tournament.

New Congressman Jared Huffman is playing to his strengths in Washington, earning appointments to two House of Representatives committees that mirror the responsibilities he had during his time with the California Assembly.
Huffman, D-San Rafael and an environmental lawyer by trade, will serve on the House Committee on Natural Resources and the House Budget Committee, according to a press release from his office. The Steering Committee of the House Democratic Caucus notified Huffman of his appointments, and the congressman made the announcement Wednesday.
"These committee assignments both reflect the needs of my district and are a match to my strengths as a policymaker – and they oversee issues that I am passionate about," Huffman said in a release. "...The Committee on Natural Resources jurisdiction perfectly matches the interests and needs of my North Coast and North Bay constituents. The economy of California's Second Congressional District is tied directly to the state's natural resources."
Huffman's new congressional district, which stretches from Marin County to the Oregon border, encompasses several national forests, the Klamath and Trinity River reclamation projects, and some of the most scenic protected sites in the country, including the Redwood National Park to the Point Reyes National Seashore. He said the Natural Resources Committee plays a critical role in overseeing those sites as well as managing the federal government's role with the North Coast's iconic salmon fishing industry, native tribal interests and coastal protections.
In the California Assembly, Huffman chaired the Water, Parks and Wildlife Committee and played a key role in crafting and passing a historic package of water reforms. More recently, he authored legislation to resolve the funding and management problems that have plagued California's State Parks.
"I welcome the opportunity to work with the committee to protect our environment and create new jobs through policies that grow our economy, resolve natural resource conflicts, advance clean energy solutions and combat global warming," Huffman said.
The House Committee on the Budget is charged with developing the fiscal policy of the nation. Huffman served in Sacramento on the Assembly Committee on Budget and ended his tenure chairing one of its subcommittees.
"Over the last six years, I worked on the Budget Committee with my colleagues and the Brown administration to make hard decisions and support key measures that have helped take California from the depths of the worst fiscal crisis since the Great Depression to being on a path to a budget surplus in 2014," Huffman said. "Using this experience, I look forward to getting to work on the federal budget, and making sure it reflects our values as a nation while also resolving our national debt crisis."

It's a new year, and many adults make resolutions to improve their lives through learning new things, revitalizing skills that have become dormant or embarking on great experiences. If you fit any of these descriptions and have an interest in music making, creative writing or visual art, then be sure to consider including Interlochen College of Creative Arts (ICCA) in your plans this year!
"Many of our adult participants choose to come to Interlochen as an Arts Vacation," noted Matt Wiliford, director of ICCA. "It's a time away to focus on personal creation in your prefered art form, with outstanding instructors, while making new friends."
In the summer of 2013, ICCA will offer seventeen programs for a variety of skill levels and ranging from one to five days in length. Popular programs include: Adult Band Camp, which attracts more than 70 musicians each year; guitarists can choose from classical or fingerstyle workshops; and fans of chamber music can join in the annual Adult Chamber Music Camp, which builds on a sixty-year tradition at Interlochen.
"Our newest music program, Adult Choral Camp, will enter its second summer in 2013," said Wiliford. "It's a terrific opportunity for adult singers to come together under the direction of Dr. Jerry Blackstone and make great choral music! The choir had so much fun together last July; I have no doubt this will continue to grow into one of our largest adult camps."
Other opportunities for personal expression include: Writing Retreats, Memoir Workshops, Mystery Writing, Drawing, Acrylic and Watercolor Painting and Pastels.
The summer of 2013 will be the inaugural season for the newly expanded Mallory-Towsley Center for Arts Leadership, which houses many ICCA programs.
Now entering its ninth year, the College of Creative Arts provides engaging arts programs for adults at Interlochen. Each year, these workshops and camps for adults attract hundreds of men and women from across the United States, Canada and internationally. To learn more about pursuing your artistic passion at Interlochen - or discovering a new interest - visit the ICCA website or call (231) 276-7387.

CAMDEN, Del. - The State Fire Marshal's office says two Dover men have been charged with setting off homemade explosive devices in a department store in Camden.
Authorities say the devices went off in two restrooms in a Wal-Mart on Sept. 21. There were no injuries, and little damage to the restrooms.
Authorities arrested 21-year-old Malcolm Casson and 20-year-old Bradford Husfelt last week. They are each charged with manufacturing and use of an explosive device and other offenses.

Good place to go with some buddies. Not a place to find chicks though unless your trying to steal someone else's. Its a small, chill atmosphere. There's a great draft selection. The backyard has a huge bocce ball court. I've never even heard of that game until I came to this place. its a really fun game though when your wasted. They have a bar in the backyard as well. Good guy that runs the joint. He's got a little crazy dog that never stops barking though. Can be a good buzzkill even though i love dogs. But defintately a cool place to just relax and find good beer.

Hans is truly a unique place. Small interior and bar, but a huge outdoor area in the back. Over a dozen large tables along with a few more round tables in a covered area offer plenty of spots to sit and enjoy your beer. There's also an outdoor bar, though I'm not sure when/if it's actually used. The bocce ball court is an added bonus. The fact that it's dog-friendly is nice as well. A great place for a beer when the weather cooperates.
Good beer and lots of taps, but many may be unavailable at any given point in time. Nothing crazy to choose from and not the place to go to for what's new and hard to find. But chances are you'll find something good to drink.
Good service...nothing really stands out as being great or not good. You order a beer and they give it to you, pretty simple. My most recent pints were $6 each which seems steep for normal offerings.
Cool hole-in-the-wall joint. Love the outdoor space.

This is one of those places where you can't judge the book by its cover deal. To say the least this place has a lot of character a complete hole in the wall and I love it. The atmosphere is great although I can't say that I've ever really stayed inside the place longer than it takes to order a beer I tend to hang out in the beer garden out back. Out back is great boccie ball and a patio bar with the owners dog walking around. The bartenders have always been kind and quick with their service. They serve a good amount of quality micros with your typical beer bar imports. They don't serve any food there but they have a big binder with a bunch of local places that will deliver to the bar. If I lived within walking distance of this place I'd be there for a pint or two every night. One last thing Billy is kind enough to allow the local BAs to have gatherings out back supper cool of him to do that.

I have gone here a couple of times. Just now getting around to reviewing the place. This has a hole in the wall feeling in the best since of the term. Usually when I walk up, the owners dog is there to great you. At first he barks like crazy, but as soon as you walk through the door, he is your best friend. The selection is great. Some of the highlights are Stone IPA, and Hop Rod Rye. They also have plenty of Real Ale offerings. They have a wide selection of micro's and decent imports. The only thing to complain about is the sub par bottle selection and the lack of a beer list. The atmosphere can't be beat with a big beer garden out back with a boccie ball court. Friendly people frequent the place with good service. One of my favorite places to go in the Rice Village area. It is laid back, and pretty much everything you want when visiting a bar.
Edit 05/16/11
This has been one of my favorite bars in the Houston area for a while, but lately they are falling way down. The tap list now consists of pretty much every ABInbev product available, with every Widmer product available. There are still a few Real Ale and Saint Arnold offerings, but that is it. The quality of the beer is pretty bad now as well. Lots of stuff sits on the wall and does not move. It seems like the owners are just giving up which is very disappointing. To bad, I use to love this place.

Nice little place right off Kirby right across from the IBC Bank. The actual inside bar is fairly small as most of the tables are outside so pick a nice night to really get the full effect of this place. Huge bocce ball court where there is always a game going on, and it's not usually a long wait if you want to get your turn. Large screen tv outside and a few smaller ones inside if you want to catch a game. Around 20-30 taps with a good mix of unique American, Belgian, and German offerings. Pint prices are generally 5 dollars with 7.50 or so for special releases/higher alcohol beers. They also do half pints on request but use the standard pint glasses. Downside is the line to grab a beer can be fairly long depending on the night because of the way it's set up, but once you get it it's probably the best bar to grab a beer in Houston. I should go there more.

LeeTran broke ground on a new $32 million headquarters in Fort Myers on Monday, but some passengers were not too happy with the investment.
Plans include new offices, and a maintenance facility.
We spoke to people who rely on the bus system, and some said the money would be better spent on additional routes.
Kathryn Moultrie began riding LeeTran buses this year. She said the service is more popular -- but also less frequent -- than she had expected. Some days, she waits two hours.
"It's just not enough, the schedules are not often enough," Moultrie explained.
The Lee County-run transit system said readership is -- in fact -- increasing. Reportedly giving 500,000 more rides in 2012 over the previous year.
This means people used the system 3.7 million times.
Some people who use the service tell us the plans stop short of helping them.
"If they're going to invest money, why not invest it in a better route," said Moultrie.
"If they added a headquarters, they should add more routes," Allan Pineda, of Lehigh Acres, said. "In Lehigh, it's not enough, they need more buses out there."
Transit Director, Steven Myers, said the plans give LeeTran the space it desperately needs.
He said they began gathering federal and state grant funds to pay for the project 10 years ago.
It's money that comes with stipulations.
LeeTran can use the money to add buses to their fleet, but not to pay the drivers needed to run them.
"It's not money that we're able to prioritize for operating, but our hope would be that eventually the county will be able to find a way to start to grow the transit system," Myers said. "That's kind of why we're putting this infrastructure here, so when that demand comes along, we'll be ready to meet that demand."
Moultrie said the demand is here now.
"Coming from other areas, public transit is just a lot more accommodating. If they would increase some of the schedules, you probably would see more people taking it," Moultrie explained.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- Quinton Carter's charitable works are now taking him to another continent.
The Denver Broncos safety is joining a group of NFL players and celebrities on a two-week charitable trip to the African nations of Uganda and Tanzania to try and lend a hand and bring some attention to people in need.
Carter decided as a high school senior that he wanted to start his own foundation, and he planned a free Thanksgiving dinner for people in need during his time playing at Oklahoma.
Having just completed his rookie season in the NFL, Carter says he never dreamed that he'd be able to help so many people.
He says it's all worth it when someone smiles or cries out of appreciation.

The capital of Nepal, Kathmandu is a bustling city of close to one million people. Its medieval streets dotted with both Hindu and Buddhist temples are offset by lively bazaars filled with people from all over the country, exemplifying Nepal's rich ethnic and religious diversity.
Pitzer College's Program in Nepal, founded in 1974, provides a unique opportunity for an in-depth and significant cross-cultural learning experience and is particularly recommended for students in anthropology and Asian Studies. Regular features of the program include the intensive Nepali language study, a homestay program placing students in close contact with Nepalese daily life, and a trek and village homestay in the Himalayas.
Academic Program
A major part of the program consists of conversational Nepali instruction (200 hours) taught with minimal English translation (2.0 Pomona course credits). The grade in the language course is based on a student's ability to communicate orally and in writing. All students also take Nepalese Area Studies, a class which covers a variety of topics, including family structures, the caste system, environmental studies, development studies, health, and religion. The course consists of seminars, lectures, field trips, walking treks, and family stays. Students also keep a journal and complete a field book consisting of weekly writing assignments (1.0 Pomona course credit).
In addition to these two required courses, students work on an Independent Study Project, which is evaluated by a Claremont Colleges faculty member. It is due for grading in Claremont no later than four weeks following the semester in Nepal (1.0 Pomona course credit).
Living Arrangements
Students live and eat with Nepalese families in villages near Kathmandu and in the Himalayas.
Number of Students
Up to 12. Two groups of up to 14.
Students are strongly encouraged to take Pitzer College's Anthropology 16: "Intro to Nepal," South Asian History, or Third World Development. If a student cannot take this course due to a scheduling conflict, please see Mike Donahue in the Pitzer study abroad office. He will provide a recommended pre-departure reading list. Pitzer College requires a 7.5 GPA and an interview with a Pitzer College External Studies adviser. Students must submit a copy of a passport valid for six months beyond the end date of the proposed semester abroad at the time of application.

Steve Yzerman talks about what he wants and what he can get to upgrade the Lightning in goal. What are the implications of these public statements?
Steve Yzerman and the Lightning staff have a tough decision to make regarding the goaltender situation in Tampa Bay. This decision starts with their assessment of the talent currently in the system...
The Tampa Bay Lightning will have one goalie under contract come July first, but that's probably not the goalie they should try to retain. Who should stay and who should go in net for the Lightning?
Will the Tampa Bay Lightning turn into the Red Wings South under new GM Steve Yzerman?
And now a word from the new Tampa Bay Lightning General Manager, Steve Yzerman. (This is like a service announcement or something. Still weird to not put "Detroit Red Wings" in there with his name, tho. That's going to take some getting used to - for everybody, I think.)
The official open thread related to the Steve Yzerman hiring is here. Join us as we await the 3PM press conference

The 30th Annual Labor Day Festival in Olive Branch, Illinois kicked off Monday.
The man charged with the murder of Hickman, Kentucky's mayor pleaded not guilty Tuesday in Fulton County Court.
The court in Fulton County on Tuesday entered an automatic not guilty plea for Thomas Joseph "Tommy" Lattus on a charge of murder.
Tommy Lattus, 30, is accused of killing 68-year-old Charles Murphy with a shotgun Monday morning.
Police found Murphy's body in the bedroom of his home after police say Lattus told them he shot and killed Murphy.
Police Chief Tony Grogan says Lattus walked into a police station early Monday and said he'd shot Murphy, who had dated his adoptive mother.
Grogan said Lattus broke into the side door of Murphy's house and killed him.
He's currently being held at the Fulton County Jail.
Lattus will be represented by Dennis Null.
His preliminary hearing is scheduled for Tuesday, Jan. 31 at 1:30 p.m.
His case was scheduled for noon. However, court officials say they were concerned about his safety because emotions are running high following the murder of the town's mayor. So, the schedule had to be adjusted.
Murphy was in his second term as mayor and had served earlier terms on the city board. He was also a retired school principal and farmer.
Visitation and funeral services have been finalized for Mayor Charles Murphy.
Beginning at 5 p.m. Thursday, visitation will be held at West Baptist Church in Hickman.
Funeral services will take place at 11 a.m. Friday at West Baptist Church in Hickman.
The public is welcome.

Television has made it hard for movies like Texas Killing Fields. A better-than-average police procedural rooted in the not-always-pretty world found at the edge of the Texas bayou, the film tells a tight, contained crime story, filling the edges with the shaggy details of police work and life on the underside of Texas City, Texas. Without The Wire and its like as a point of comparison, Texas Killing Fields might seem the natural heir to a gritty '70s cop drama. But with great contemporary TV around, it seems strangely incomplete. We get to know the detectives at the film's core, how they work, what drives them, and the place they're sworn to protect. And then the film ends after telling only one story, which seems kind of odd these days.
At least any frustration comes from the way one installment seems insufficient. Director Ami Canaan Mann (daughter of Michael Mann, who produced) doesn't have the strongest interest in efficient storytelling. Working from a script by Donald Ferraone, a former DEA agent, she leaves the details murky and the relationships sketchy, but creates an intriguing-enough atmosphere to compensate for what's missing. As a driven cop, Sam Worthington doesn't nail the accent, but he delivers a more compelling performance than in any of his high-profile lead roles. With some assistance from a fellow-cop ex-wife (the ubiquitous Jessica Chastain), Worthington works with partner Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Watchmen) to track down a killer of young girls. The investigation leads them to check out a pair of pimps spoken of in hushed tones by those who share their neighborhood. Other business takes them into the broken home of Chloë Grace Moretz, who's forced to leave the house while her mother (Sheryl Lee) turns tricks for local workers, including an intimidating john played by Boardwalk Empire's Stephen Graham (looking a lot like Craig Finn from The Hold Steady).
Atmosphere and small touches go a long way here. When Morgan hunches to pray over the body of a girl as the rain starts, Worthington looks on without comment, but his face offers a map of mixed feelings. Mann handles quiet moments and tense interrogations well and action scenes even better, particularly a chase scene through some run-down back streets and the climactic trip to the desolate parts of the bayou that give the film its title. The only trouble: With a focus squarely on a case that isn't that unusual and intriguing, and only half-developed characters, Texas Killing Fields feels more like a promising pilot than a feature film. It doesn't conclude so much as dead-end.

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Chideo (charity + video), the latest venture from entrepreneur and philanthropist Todd Wagner, today announced the launch of a new flash sweepstakes series available exclusively to fans registered on the free digital platform.
Designed to mobilize the way consumers give to charity, Chideo gives fans the power to vote on and suggest the video content they want to see from their favorite celebrities from the worlds of film, television, music, sports, culture and beyond.

"By partnering with Chideo, I'm not only bringing fans the chance to win a Broadway experience of a lifetime but together, we're also helping NCMEC continue their extraordinary work."
With multiple events slated to roll out in the coming months, including NBA Playoffs Tickets from All-Star Chris Paul and VIP passes to an upcoming Linkin Park concert in Europe, Chideo Founder and CEO Todd Wagner says this is just one more way Chideo is making it easy and fun to give back.
"Chideo is dynamic," Wagner said. "You want to come back every day because there is always a new topic to vote on or a new video to watch from one of our celebrity ambassadors. Our new flash sweepstakes series is a fantastic extension of our commitment to providing fresh, entertaining and often surprising ways for fans and celebrities to engage with one another in the spirit of doing good."

|Library floor fixed, Marks new page
|Thursday, November 15, 2012 2:50 PM
The repairs cost $935.
"After our last meeting, I called Jimmy Mox about the landscaping and he came by and did some groundwork," Mericle continued. "Then he said he had a few other jobs to complete before he could get started. He came back about a week ago and completed the project. He gave us exactly what we asked for, which was low-maintenance plants."
As for the new page, Mericle says the selected candidate should be able to start soon.
"We narrowed them down and decided to go with Emily Marks, a young girl from Jefferson," she said. "She's still getting her physical and other things together for her work release but I'll be giving her a call soon and we'll maybe get her started next week."
Another project the board saw completed this month was the wall decorations for The First Edition Building. The board hired Sign Pro Imaging to enlarge old black and white photographs of Delphos and make canvas prints of them to display on the building's walls.
"We have the prints here and all that remains is for us to hang them up," Mericle said. "I left it to them to determine the sizes of the prints based on the quality of the images and they turned out really well. This is also a good way for businesses in town and people who use this building to see that we have these pictures at the library, in case they want to use them, too."
As the library finished three projects, two more popped up in their place.
"Our boilers are inspected yearly and this year we didn't pass," Mericle said. "We need temperature operator controls and water check valves. I called Reliable Plumbing & Heating and they ordered those parts. As soon as they come in, they'll be over here to take care of that."
Another thing is the dust problem that's come up in The First Edition. Every time we come over here there's a layer of something that looks a little like sawdust coating everything. We called Servpro of Lima, they do commercial duct cleaning, and they said it could be from the drywall or the cement. We didn't notice it in the summer with the air conditioning. It's only with the heater on. It's getting to be a nuisance. Every time someone uses the building we have to clean everything off. Servpro quoted us $625 to fix it."
The board gave Mericle permission to approve the quote by Servpro.
In other news, the board is seeking a new library director to fill Mericle's shoes and accepted resignation of Technology Coodinator Margaret Suever.

Palm Beach County's hottest movie still sizzles: Our sexy 'Body Heat' quiz
- 9:23 am Tuesday, August 27th, 2013 by Larry Aydlette
Thirty-two years ago as of Wednesday — Aug. 28, 1981 — a murderous little thriller with no big names and an unknown director opened on movie screens across America. The name of the film was "Body Heat," and if you're of a certain age, you go "ahhh" when you think of it — usually the steamy scenes with a naked William Hurt, Kathleen Turner and a bathtub full of ice cubes.
In December 1980, Hurt, Turner, and Ted Danson came to Palm Beach County — an unusually cold one that winter — to film exterior shots for this quintessential sexy noir. For most of them, the film would help make them bonafide stars. It would launch writer-director Lawrence Kasdan's career, which had already gotten a boost from co-writing "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Raiders of the Lost Ark."
And it would put the locations in and around the county on the cinema map.
So, how much do you recall about the film and where it took place locally? Take our sizzling quiz and see if your memories are as fogged up as your glasses.
1. The picture above shows a stock brokerage house at 813 Lucerne Avenue, right at the corner of South Dixie Highway, in Lake Worth. It's still there today. But for the movie, Hollywood filmmakers built another type of building here. Was it:
A. The office of lawyer Ned Racine (William Hurt)
B. Stella's Coffee Shop, where Hurt and Danson's characters jaw about the insufferable heat
C. The law office of "Schiller, Hastings," where widowed Matty Walker (Kathleen Turner) gets her late husband's will handled. [More]

Supervisors/Managerial Essentials Certificate- A great supervisor needs technical, business, and soft skills to effectively manage others. Few people are taught these skills as part of their formal education and most supervisory jobs are not designed to encourage their use.

Because managers' skills may be different, you will be able to design your own supervisor's certificate. Select from various courses, take the ILU's and receive the Supervisor/Managerial Essentials Certificate. HR courses will also be HRCI approved for recertification credits.

The Giants may be interested in bringing back WR Plaxico Burress.
Giants GM Jerry Reese told the New York Post that the team "definitely will investigate it" when Burress is released from the Oneida Correctional Facility in Rome, N.Y., which is expected to happen in the next 2-3 weeks.
Burress, 32, is serving a two-year sentence for a gun possession conviction, and he's likely to face discipline from commissioner Roger Goodell for a November 2008 nightclub incident during which he accidentally shot himself while reaching for a gun inside his sweatpants.
Burress recorded 70 receptions for 1,025 yards and 12 touchdowns during the Giants' Super Bowl-winning season of 2007.

Cheap Vacations in Colorado
Even though you may be unable to invest a lot of money on a vacation this year, that doesn't mean you should forgo a much needed getaway. Vacations are the spice of life! A change of pace and scenery is important for maintaining peace of mind and a sense of well-being. If you are watching your finances, it only means that some creative thinking is in order - and of course research and planning!
One excellent cheap vacation destination is Colorado. Vacationing in Colorado is a wonderful experience. With so much to offer, from natural beauty to culture, Colorado is a great place to take an inexpensive vacation. Let's look at options for cheap vacations in Colorado.
White Water Rafting
For your summer vacation, and especially if you like some major excitement, white water rafting is one of the things Colorado does best! Choose from locations such as Breckenridge, Glenwood Springs, Steamboat Springs, and more. Then choose your pace - rapids can range from leisurely (level 1) to a complete adrenaline rush (level 5). Take a look at all your options before booking a tour.
Scenic Drives
Even if you aren't an outdoor enthusiast, Colorado has some of the most beautiful scenic drives and breathtaking hiking opportunities in the country. And they are inexpensive or free! Topping the list of ideas for Colorado cheap vacations is a trip to the Colorado River, located between the State Bridge and Rocky Mountain National Parks. Head toward the west entrance of the Rocky Mountain National Park then southwest past Grand Lake. Along the way, enjoy the water, take a nice hike in the Middle Park area, or go fishing in the Gold Meadow Waters. This drive will take about two hours and is available all year.
Look over the clouds from the Top of the Rockies! This Scenic Byway runs through the center of the Rocky Mountains and crosses the Continental Divide. With spectacular scenery, wild life, starry nights, a well-maintained road that is open all year (other than US 34), and altitudes of up to 14 thousand feet, this is a must see.
For a historic drive, go west of Pueblo along the Wet Mountains and San Isabel National Forest, tracing the history of southern Colorado through historic mining towns, stage stops, trading posts, and more. Check out a hiking guide to explore options and plan your route in advance.
Another way to enjoy cheap vacations in Colorado, while combining education and entertainment, is to check out the many museums in the Denver/Boulder area. Some of them include the Boulder History Museum, the University of Colorado Museum of Natural History, the Byers-Evans Denver History Museum, the Forney Transportation Museum, and the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. Look at each museum's website to target the most interesting museums for your family. Both Denver and Boulder have plenty in the way of cuisine, entertainment, and night life as well.
Vacation Rentals
The most important part of making your vacation inexpensive is to find a vacation rental, because lodging makes up a large part of vacation expenses. Vacation rentals come in all shapes, sizes, locations, and prices, plus they often have added benefits to pare down on costs. For instance, a fully equipped kitchen allows you to cook dinner in rather than eating out every night. You'll also enjoy having much more space than a hotel room could possibly provide. Look at all your options to find one that works for you.
As you can see, cheap vacations in Colorado are entirely possible! In fact, you'll have plenty to keep you occupied in Colorado.

Okay, so just look--

All right.

in the mirror and just know that--

Where's the mirror? I mean, I only want to look at you.

then I'll give you one, but this is how you start before you blend.

Unfortunately, Kim's been wallowing in obscurity for quite a while now. She only has 14.6 million Twitter followers, so if you could give her a hand and follow her on Twitter, she'd really appreciate it, wouldn't you Kim?

I really would, please. I need it.

Kim, has just arrived in London where she's launching a fragrance, and Kim and I today are gonna talk about fashion and beauty, you know, when you're not into that geo-politics or you know, you're right into fashion and beauty.

Yeah, I don't just gotten into it. I guess, as a little hobby.

Okay, so what was the very, very first thing you bought fashion wisely, it was a real spend and that you really loved?

Well the biggest thing I got was when I turned 16. I got a Prada Backpack like one of the nylon backpack and it had that triangle gold Prada symbol.

That you would polish?

It was-- it was like I couldn't scratch it. It was my favorite piece ever. I was so excited when I got it.

Then obviously you've flown in, you're all [unknown] up for some tely. So what have you been buying lately and took picture--

This is actually what I wore at the airport.

Of course you wore that to the-- you can't--

No sweats anymore.

You can't do that.

Sold out, you know, a Valentino leather jacket to the airport and the Celine top.

When was the last time you wore sweaters to the airport?

It's been a while actually. Now, I used to live in either juicy sweat suits or really fancy like Herve dress. That was like my either or I'd say a couple of years ago. I had nothing--

Right.

in between. So now my airport outfits are like, you know, Louis Vuitton, a Celine top, Celine jewelries, leather jacket. I used to be super trendy and totally sexy, but kind of-- I look back now and I'm like to used to want everything short and low-cut--

Uh huh.

and you really can't do it all and I think that--

I've tried.

I've tried for years and I would keep that for years. I think like just more even recently, my styles have come a little bit sleeker. I think Celine and Givenchy and Lanvin or like some of my faves right now. I really-- but then again I love mixing it with low price point stuff too, I mean, it's all about mixing and matching. You can't really have like high-end designers for everything and it's just not, you know--

Well you could, if you marry often, you're like a Saudi princess.

But everyone always thinks that I've had my nose done or my lips done or just anything to my face like besides buttocks which to me is not plastic surgery.

It's just little meals of fun.

But I mean people always say I've had nose job and they'll use before and after pictures--

Right.

but the after picture is really from taken before, like it's so funny. It's just depends on how your nose is contoured.

What kind of?

I'm gonna teach you how to like pose in a way to make your face looks skinny and small--

Which is--

and then I'm gonna contour your nose. Okay, so will you just--

Okay baby.

put your hair behind your ears.

I will see you.

This is what I do.

Okay.

I contour my face.

Uh huh.

I do like, wait [unknown]--

Look at me.

I do like my whole forehead.

Look at your eyes.

These are my colors, so I don't know like what this is gonna look like on you.

I'm just lost in your eyes right now, so, I'm lost.

I get that a lot.

Oh, I bet you do.

I do like-- okay, so your initial thing is I do a three like there.

Okay.

That makes your face look really little and chiseled.

I go, 'cause I have a big head. Can you shrink my head?

Yeah. We're gonna need some other--

You're so clever with it a K.

drugs for that. Okay, this color is not your color. So--

Am I pretty?

You're--

Tell me I'm pretty.

So, you're gonna need to like suck-in your cheek bones like this.

I'm talking [unknown]?

Okay so, on your nose.

Oh, go on.

You're goal-- okay to pose, you always put your neck down. You do not want a big chin or a double chin, so I always go out and down.

Out and down.

So, if you notice, most every picture of me even from the side is like-- so I always start from like under the brow. I'm exaggerating this with the darker color just to show you how great you blend it, but I'm not gonna blend it for you. I'm gonna show you the power of contouring. First like, you can make the whole bit of your nose look so much shorter. I'm gonna give you a Kardashian brow.

Yeah, boy. This is amazing.

Seriously.

All these tweens--

Probably what my brows look like.

All these tweens right now are dying [unknown]--

No, this is the over-exaggeration.

and I am taking one for the team. I can't wait to see what, you to comment or as have to say about this look, but I do wanna be Claura Kardashian.

Claura?

Well that would be okay. Henry got 5, could have been 6.

Is that a name in the UK, Claura?

That was the name in heart.

I've never heard of that name.

Name in my heart. I'm Claura Kardashian, I'm the newest member of your family.

Let me give you good smuck-- I could really do a good eye. Obviously blend in with foundation over that and I would never do your brows really like that, but I would if you'll--

You're actually super enjoying it right now. You know like sadistic kinda way.

If I'm far away.

I'm far away. Hang on. I'll go to the other side of London.

Go--

and let me know if I look good.

Go on Big Ben and then ring the bell and [unknown]--

I have never felt so pretty in my life. Part lion, part Kardashian, all the way beautiful.

Oh, I gotta go. So I have no time to finish--

You gotta go?

your contouring--

Okay.

I hope that works for you.

You beast.

Gov. Martin O'Malley says his administration will introduce bills aimed at preventing catastrophic mass shootings like the one that happened last week at an elementary school in Connecticut.
O'Malley told reporters Tuesday that the details of the legislation have yet to be worked out, but that he believes everyone has been changed by Friday's massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. The gunman, Adam Lanza, killed his mother and then shot 26 children and school staff members before killing himself.
O'Malley says the shooting prompts questions about laws relating to assault weapons, mental health and school safety.
O'Malley made the remarks during a discussion of the state's progress.
Meanwhile, Sen. Brian Frosh said he and other lawmakers plan to announce this week a package of gun control legislation.

We ate in the Lido restaurant for breakfast,lunch and in the Horizons for evenings. Our waiters Dennis and Frank nothing too much trouble and are a treasure and credit to the ship. Food on board was excellent. ENTERTAINMENT STAFF were out of this world only missed the first night show, the shows were fabulous. Can't single anyone out but the girl from FLINT, N Wales was very very good. Ships decor was very good and always clean.
Cabin was excellent and cabin boy must have been in the wardrobe as every time we left the cabin the beds were made and clothes put away.
From the Captain on down, the crew and staff were excellent and obviously very happy to serve on such a well run and happy ship.
