One of the "1001 Beers You Must Try Before You Die" -- this is #8 of my reviews.
This is a world class doppelbock, maybe the best I've ever had in the style. It pours an incredibly dark mahogany-brown, maybe as close as you can get to black without it being quite black. (It does radiate a very solemn red in its center when you hold it up to the light.)
A very sweet nose: brown sugar, carmel, rum raisins and brandy. Flavor-wise I would venture something like "that combination indicated above dumped in a bowl of very good-quality Scottish Oatmeal, with maybe some blackstrap honey added on top as a garnish." Amazingly the mouthfeel is as silky-smooth as can be, even the grainy-mealy finish is delivered as more of an afterthought than a real kick.
I think this is one of the classic beers out there. I don't think I've ever had a doppelbock that's ever come close to getting as many things right as this one does.

Bottled served in a weizen glass. Had this a few times but finally trying it again to review it.
Pours deep dark brown with hints of garnet light on the edges of the glass, the 2 finger khaki head quickly forms and fades fast leaving a minimally sticky lacing and a thin layer of head remaining over the beer.
Aroma is subtle with smokey notes, savory meat, dark fruits, molasses, is inviting but not overly strong. The flavor too is subtle as the start with caramel sweetness on the tip of the tongue that evolves into a smoked meat and a smooth tobacco character flavor on the middle palate with dark fruits, dates, raisins, and sizable molasses and caramel notes. The finish is pretty bitter and the alcohol is quick present which was surprising to me considering the ABV is only 6.7%.
Mouthfeel is smooth, wet, with moderate body, and medium-low carbonation.
Celebrator is a high quality Doppelbock with a really cool but gimmicky advertising goat charm and great label. The beer matches the advertising and though I really enjoyed it, I would not seek this one out but would try it if ever offered.

Been trying to find this for a while, thank you friar tucks in champaign IL. for carrying it.
Appearence: pours an opaque chocolate color with two fingers of tan head that dissipates a little to quick.
Smell: chocolate, coffee, molasses, english pudding
Taste: very tasty, smooth chocolate mocha flavor, some roasted malt notes add to a subtle sweetness that would be a nice after dinner brew.
Mouthfeel: Not as thick as I expected, turns out this is very drinkable. More carbonation than expected as well.
Overall: Lives up to the billing, not sure if i will buy it again but it definately passes the test of a world class doppelbock.

Been locking forward to trying the Celebrator for a while, the time is now. Served in a snifter.
A: Pours a deep, almost black, brown with red tinges to it, had a short caramel head, not much lacing.
S: Smells like dark fruit, roasted malts, burnt sugar, grainy, hints of chocolate and toffee.
T: Sweet, brown sugar, fruity, very complex, chocolate hints, roasted malts, bit of hops. Great flavor, it's delicious and well balanced.
M: It's got a bit of carbonation going, it's balanced a bit by the outstanding rich flavor, its fulfilling and refreshing, it's darn good.
O: Overall, I was expecting greatness, and my expectations were exceeded, a well balanced beer, it was expensive but it was worth it, one of the world's delicacies that should be enjoyed.

Old World Standard of the style, shapes the idea of beers to follow. Its high quality is evinced in every detail. The color is rich and carbonation is lingering, yet always delicate in the background. Oaky, bready fruity smell, very complex. I can't put a taste in terms, unique enough to be called its own. The mouthfeel is warming and so smooth, finish is absolutely perfect. No gimmicks here, just an expertly crafted beer.

La Velle E. Neal III has covered baseball for the Star Tribune since 1998 (the post-Knoblauch era). Born and raised in Chicago, he grew up following the White Sox and hating the Cubs. He attended both the University of Illinois and Illinois-Chicago and began his baseball writing career at the Kansas City Star. He can be heard occasionally on KFAN radio, lending his great baseball mind to Paul Allen and other hosts. Mark Rosen borrows him occasionally for WCCO-TV.
Three quick postgame thoughts following the Twins' fifth straight loss
1. WILKIN RAMIREZ GONE: Outfielder Wilkin Ramirez has left the team to go on three-day paternity leave as his wife, who's in New York, has gone into labor. The Twins are expected to call up a temp tomorrow. The Twins could call up hot-hitting Oswaldo Arcia or Chris Colabello from Class AAA Rochester, but they would sit on the bench. Clete Thomas has been starting at center at Rochester and could be a possibility because...
2. AARON HICKS IS A MESS: He's taking pitches he should hit and swinging at pitches he should take. I joked on the radio this week that you keep running kids out there until they start tearing up the clubhouse or curling up into a fetal position during the post-game shower. But now Hicks looks like he's in a funk, and maybe a few days off will help him. He struck out three more times today and 20 times for the season.
3.SCOTT DIAMOND WAS O.K. : He said he should have done a better job of damage control in the fifth. He was moving his fastball in and out the first three innings. I think he could have kept pounding fastball inside a, especially when the last hitter he faced, Daniel Murphy, hits a curveball on the outer half of the plate hard to center. It was hard to expect a masterpiece in his first time out. It just looked bad because Matt Harvey was unhittable for six-plus innings.

During my visits to the Athenian Acropolis buildings, both before and after they were enveloped in scaffolding, I have learned of and noted the damage done by both neglect and ham-fisted restoration efforts. I have also noticed there the tang of the Athenian smog, and am pleased that the Elgin Marbles will now be treated with the care they deserve – no matter where they finally reside.
Lord Elgin obtained a firman, or authority, from the Sultan which gave him permission to take away items from the Ottoman fort. The Ottomans had controlled Athens since 1460, and their authority over the items was legal, unless one decides "that doesn't count."
The link below provides the English translation of the Italian translation of the Ottoman firman giving permission for the removal of the items in question.
I am unsure why some feel the need to inject homosexual references about this, but I am sure they felt doing so was in some way relevant to the topic and not intended in any derogatory way.
It is certainly arguable that Elgin exceeded the authority granted in the firman, possibly in order to preserve as many of the artifacts as possible. It seems that Athenian perceptions of "? the soul of the Greek people" [M. Mercuri, 1983] were sufficiently different at the beginning of the nineteenth century that "?the statues that had fallen off the sanctuary were burned for lime to make the mortar used in the modern buildings that dotted the Acropolis." One might question what might have otherwise befallen these
Scroll down to the section 'Elgin's Acquisition of the Marbles'
It is a mistake to suggest that sending the Elgin Marbles to Athens would in some way "complete" the Acropolis artwork. More than half the original marbles are lost; the Elgin Marbles cannot complete the collection in Greece, or anywhere else.
I prefer to base my opinions on what can be tested and verified.

"I believe is only the second time that someone is calling Greek art treasury or Hellenic that is the real word : grecian....that doesnt exist in any vocabulary in the world (it is a version of armen- ian?)"
Alas, "Grecian" is an archaic but extant adjective for "Greek" in English. A quick glance at the OED should cure your misapprehension. Though indeed, "Greek" is to be preferred in use these days.
angelo bossini wrote:
"anterracon probably is american...?"
Presumably one should cast some aspersion on your co-nationals for your limited vocabulary here. A-heh. Ah, the ever-charming combination of chest-beating nationalism and ignorance on the Economist forums...
Pename, Christians didn't magically appear. Greeks turned to Christianity and set about destroying and burying past-respected pagan sites and rejecting the learning of the past in the same way that was done throughout the Mediterranean.
Of course the Hellenic period and Byzantine period were great, but over time they became completely different to the period of Classical Greece to which modern Greeks seem to fanatically cling... where are the archaeological remains that should be on the Acropolis from the Hellenic and Byzantine and Ottomon periods?
Aristophanes' comedies have well-written human characters. Just because people from Peru can empathize with his characters does not mean that the Peruvians have any great and overarching link to Greece. By so overtly seeing this as a link between you and past Greeks you're succumbing to the same fanaticism.
The first step to accepting the evolution of Greek culture is to accept the past, including the bit where you were a backwater in part of a declining empire in 1820AD, and accepting, possibly, the sale of works of art.
Since you mention the Crusades our Richard the Lionheart who was once a significant figure in our culture is buried in France, but we're quite relaxed about it. We are also now quite relaxed that the land on which he was buried was claimed though conquest by the kingdoms of the French.
And the Elgin Marbles were carved because Athens was funded with wealth from an empire that ruthlessly extorted significant funds from peoples who lived on the land that became the heart of the Ottoman Empire and which is in modern day Turkey. So over time things tend to even themselves out.
Accept history and Chill Winston.
Sunny Afternoon
laughable and wrong is the perverted perception of some semi-literate pseudo scholars that there was a 2 millenia gap in Greek history, that dominated western thinking in the 19th century. Their motivation must have been as well perverted and obscure to try to convince people that after the collapse of the classical Greek world some extra-terrestrial Christians and self proclaimed Greeks appeared and tried to destroy the antiquities of the ancients.
Or when they tried to convince us that they know better how Greek vowels should be pronounced when the merely have any vowels in their own languages - let alone a relation between what you write and what you pronounce.
Of course I am not endorsing any ideas on pedigrees and DNAs. Genetic amalgamation is the first class ticket to survival, ask Darwin.
What surprises me still is how people completely ignore the Hellenistic and Byzantine periods of Greek history and consider these a gap, implicitly accepting a direct relation between ancient and modern Greece which is as absurd as my saying that Plato was my great-grandfather.
Sunny, recently many scholars revise and rewrite textbooks on these important periods of European and world history, there is a surge to appreciate the Greek Empire (Byzantium) and abolish the absurd concepts of some narrow minded reformist "teachers" and other western nationalists. Clearly, if you think about it, it is irrational to claim that the people after 300 BC where not Hellenes until AD 1821... we speak the same language, highschool kids understand and read the greek of the gospels. I doubt whether public school pupils can read Shakespeare from the original. And we still have the same mentality. If you prefer, we have the same vices: I am sure you are familiar with the works of Aristophanes. If you were more familiar with modern greeks you would find the similarities in terms of bad habits at least impressive. If you are looking for athenians rounded in rope you will not find any. But you will find many other ancient customs in many places. At my father's village they used to celebrate the coming of the spring covering their naked body with goat skins, tying a rope and a stick between their legs and hitting a metal plate tied on their belly by pulling their legs apart. This archaic pagan custom kept on until WWII and the civil war.
And nobody said it is more with us than with other cultures. We just claim our right to the natural evolution of our culture.
And a final word: it was you (the westerners) that found out about the Greek culture from Arabs (not Muslims, you're even wrong in that...). In our part of the world it was always there. You couldn't tell, you only went there as crusaders. But I doubt the Renaissance would be the same without the fleeing Byzantine scholars...
the fact is that the marbles were stolen from greece. the rightful owners are the greeks. england must return the marbles without conditins.
the conclusion is one:
Trigenis/ Alfred di Genis.
Thank you for your thoughts on the continuity between Classical and modern Greece. Without wishing to start too long a debate...
Anyone with knowledge of St Augustine's take on Platonism (a strand of neoplatonism) will be aware that his views are fundamentally different to Plato's. Neoplatonists took Platonic terms and applied to them fundamentally different and deeply religious meanings.
While St Augustine (not a Greek person) has had continuing influence on Greek Orthodox religion this should not be taken to mean that Plato has had a continuing influence on Greece. They just used similar sounding words to say different things.
At best Plato was a dead-weight who muddied the waters in understanding Neoplatonism among a tiny highly educated minority who knew anything about Plato.
Myriad place names were indeed changed by Christians. They did this to erase links with the strange and false pagan religions that had preceded them. Using the change of names to prove continuity is weak.
To say that modern Greece uses many of the practices begun during Athens' brief interlude of popular government is incorrect. I'd love to see modern Athenians being rounded up with a painted rope to vote on matters! At any rate there was a 2 millenia gap between the death of the Classical Athenian democracy and the birth of modern Athenian democracy.
If we're generous we could say that the performance of Greek plays, both tragedies and comedies, died in Greece for 1400 years. The only reason the theatre in Epidaurus is in such good condition is because Greek Christians hated the site so much the buried it under several feet of dirt.
The use of Greek terms in medicine (politics and more) owes as much, if not notably more, to Muslim appreciation of knowledge and learning, rather than a continuing tradition of usage in Greece itself. (By coincidence the destruction of Epidaurus is a reasonably useful example to prove the point.)
We cannot readily say whether modern music sounds similar to music of the past owing to the lack of sheet music from the time. However, reconstructions of Classical Greek instruments have thus far sounded distinctly different to modern instuments.
Any attempt to claim any reasonable cultural continuity in Greece, or significantly greater continuity than anywhere else, over 2500 years is laughable and wrong.
in the comment below I can not take the time to make a comment:

I believe is only the second time that someone is calling Greek art treasury or Hellenic that is the real word : grecian....that doesnt exist in any vocabulary in the world (it is a version of armen- ian?)
education matters and this is the second time after george bush that i hear that....
anterracon probably is american...?
We are talking here for the Sculptures of Parthenon, they are not just marbles and they're not elgin's.
If anybody after reading this Melina's speech still insists that the sculptures should remain in Britain, is just an idiot.
This is a perfect article. A very intelligent technocrat perhaps wrote it. The author calculated everything according with his educational backround. However seems to me very simplistic. The simplistic logic of transaction can be found everywhere. This is not bad at all. However there is a big difference. Simplistic ideas cannot support the philosophical and historical gravity which that marbles represent. You forgot many variables outside from your econometric example.
Come on, people! Do you really want to empty the British Museum?
Can't you find it in your heart to make a gift to a country with little artistic ability?
exaggerating and then oversimplifying is a good old Economist's trick but it won't do any good here. But let it be: according to your opinion then, the Nazi-looted art should never be returned to the Jewish owners:
Let me remind you that the countries where the works of art where removed from where under Nazi official governance and the looting was done with the blessings of the local authorities and Hitler himself. I am pretty sure there's also documentation and receipts the whole story.
In that case dear Con (or Antera?) you are an anti-semitist. I am sure you also deny the Holocaust and claim it was just a bonfire for the camps. I'm afraid this attitude will get you in trouble if you want to go in and out of Britain...
Forget the flame. It won't be much of an Olympics anyway. If that little taster in Beijing was a hint of things to come, London's will be "The most Boring games ever." Real sleepers.
1. Nobody agrees with anything, this is how you interpret what you read - again. The claims that the marbles are better off in the British Museum is the same as if I steal your car from the street, put it in my garage and when you ask it back I tell you that it's mine now, because you had nowhere to put it and it would get rusty outside...
2. Pretending not to understand the point is an insult to your own intelligence. However I will repeat it here for completeness of the argumentation. The Elgin marbles are not actually just marbles, stones, that having some here or there does not make a big difference. If you think of them that way, there is no reason to discuss any further. The Elgin marbles are fragments of a work of art. The work of art is left incomplete and mutilated.
Let me give you some hints on how this fact touches some sensitive chords for Greeks:
1. The British Museum has an arrogant attitude regarding the snatching and denies any malpractice, which is infuriating.
2. The work of art is incomplete. Would it make sense to you to go to Louvre and see Mona Lisa's right half only? I doubt it.
3. The situation resembles the Solomonian Judgment, most Greeks would feel their arguments less strong, should Elgin had stolen the whole thing.
In reality the only reasonable argument of the British Museum is that it does not want to let go its assets.
I must admin that Angelo Bosini wrote the very best comment!!!
Bravo Angelo!!!
I must admit i didn't expect anything else from you. First, it's not "Elgin marbles", it's Parthenon marbles. Second, in this way anybody that has occupied (in a hostile way) another country can steal their caltural treasures in the name of the internationalism? Give us a break. Our country has been robbed MANY times in the past. At least let us take some of our pride back. Unless you don't want it ...
So when does the Government of Greece intend to launch a suite against the Government of Italy for reparations?
The Romans brutally "collected" Grecian art treasures, in ways and in numbers that the 18th and 19th century enlightenment could only dream of.
Since the argument is that cultural continuity in a location gives the right of ownership over all cultural materials ever produced in that region, surely there is a cultural culpability for actions done against those materials?
If the government of Greece claims the right over the entire artistic patrimony for all time, then surely their efforts should focus on the Riace bronzes or perhaps all those stautes, bronzes,ceramics,paintings and other works in the Vatican museum and scattered throughout Italy.
It seems to me that is far more clear cut case, as we have documentary evidence showing the romans looting Greece, no bills of sale and greece was nominally independent( unlike under the Ottomans). Success in that would surely press the British museum....
Let's face it: the world's great imperial museum collections were created largely by theft, by individuals and by State policy, be it Elgin, Napoleon, Hitler or Stalin. Pity the countries that have been stripped of their cultural artifacts, largely to the financial benefit of the countries which have the resources to maintain and display the stolen goods.
No marbles, no flame
In my opinion this is an extremely biased article.
It is simple to understand the reason. Most of the arguments presented are weak and surprisingly the author, as an expert in Arts, avoid in purpose to intend that the Parthenon marbles' case is unique.

Check out this shot of KCAL at the US Festival! Thanks to KCAL rocker Sean Syfers for finding this picture and sharing it with us for Throwback Thursday. You Rock, Sean! Now, do you wanna really trip out? We recently got a message from a listener asking if we wanted an old banner of ours back. He said his uncle and some friends had had stolen it from the US Festival on a dare, and it has been moving around garages of the IE for 30 something years ever since. Sadly, the uncle is in failing health and wanted to clear his conscience before he passed away, so he told his nephew to return the banner. The nephew (who wanted to remain anonymous, but is a really good guy) dropped it off:

Last Saturday I had the pleasure of doing photos at what many considered the most stacked fight card in kickboxing history. The Forum was the location for Glory 17 – Last Man Standing. First of all, I have to give props to Glory for choosing LA as the spot for such a great event. The night started with five undercard fights, and then was simulcast on Spike TV for the Glory 17 portion of the night. After that, it switched to PPV for the Last Man Standing 8 man tournament. That tournament was crazy. Three fights in one night to win it, and these guys brought it!
The undercard was great. A number of the fighters have also fought locally for Dennis Warner's WCK, and to watch them on this kind of stage was exciting…

AUBURN, Ala. (AP) - Auburn coach Gene Chizik says he feels confident he can turn the football program around.
The Tigers have slipped from a national title team two years ago to 2-8 and winless in the Southeastern Conference after Saturday night's 38-0 shellacking by No. 5 Georgia.
Chizik said Sunday the way this season has gone "prompts you to really go back and start all over and evaluate" every aspect of the program.
He says that's what he would do. Asked if that means he's confident he can turn the program around, Chizik responded: "That's very accurate."
Auburn hosts FCS Alabama A&M on Saturday before visiting No. 4 Alabama.
The Tigers have been outscored 101-21 in their past two SEC games against No. 9 Texas A&M and the Bulldogs.

Mizzou Women's Basketball
WNIT First Round
Mizzou 58, Eastern Illinois 60
Postgame Notes
- Tonight's first round matchup against Eastern Illinois represented the Tigers fifth trip to the WNIT in school history. The Tigers are now 3-5 in WNIT tournament play.
- Tonight's game marked the first postseason appearance for the Tigers under Head Coach Robin Pingeton (3rd season) and the first for the program since the 2006-2007 season in which the Tigers were eventually knocked out in the second round of the WNIT against Wyoming.
- The last postseason home victory for the Tigers came during the 2003 season in which the Tigers ousted Ball State in a second round WNIT matchup at the Hearnes Center.
- Tonight's 60-58 loss marks the 10th meeting in school history between these two teams. The Tigers are now 8-2 against the Panthers of Eastern Illinois. As the Tigers continue to show progress under Head Coach Robin Pingeton, Mizzou concludes the season with the most wins (17) in a season since the 2006-2007 season and the most under Pingeton, now in her third season.
- Center Liz Smith continued her strong senior campaign with a team high eight rebounds. She also had an impressive offensive performance (nine points on 4-of-11 shooting).
- SEC Co-Sixth Woman of the Year, Morgan Eye (first recipient in school history) knocked down another 3 three-pointer, finishing the game with 9 points. The sharp-shooting sophomore finished with 112 treys on the season - both a Mizzou and SEC record.
- The Tigers finish the season with a team total of 263 three-pointers, extending their SEC record for most treys in a season over previous holders South Carolina (248).
- All-SEC second teamer, Bri Kulas had another strong performance, finishing with 12 points and 7 rebounds.
- Sydney Crafton also had 12 points (on 6-of-9 shooting). The 5-10 senior guard finishes her career with Tigers with a strong senior campaign, finishing with 306 points on the season.
- Mizzou benefited from some very strong bench play, which has been a staple for the Tigers all season. The Tigers bench outscored their Eastern Illinois counterparts 10-5, just under their season average.
- The Tigers played strong in the paint, out rebounding Eastern Illinois 35 to 29 as well as just edging the Panthers in points in the paint (20-18). The Tigers were led in rebounding by Liz Smith, who controlled the low-block.

Potential patrons in search of stars at the Adler Planetarium have been out of luck for the last couple days, as the "American Idol" entourage took over the museum in search of their own kind of star.
The show has previously discovered finalists like Jennifer Hudson and Crystal Bowersox in Chicago, and based on judges' comments at a Wednesday press conference, the group likes its chances to find another phenom from the city. Randy Jackson, Nicki Minaj, Mariah Carey, Keith Urban and Ryan Seacrest were all on hand for the conference, sitting pretty in a glass-cased wing of the building, overlooking a view of the skyline that Seacrest called "incredible."
The new judges said the stories that the contestants offered struck them as much as most of the voices that sang their way across the stage. Both Carey and Urban said performers had left them in tears.
"I was literally in tears today. I think it's been a pretty emotional couple of days. The stories are beyond belief, and there are some amazing voices," Carey said. "So it's not just like oh, stories, great, and then you can't sing."
Urban said he became very emotional when a 20-something performer brought his parents in the room to hear him sing for the first time. Since he said his parents always supported him, it was "beautiful to see his parents watching him sing."
Minaj agreed that "Chicago brought their A-game," but Jackson pressed her for an odder, autographical anecdote.
"Nicki has signed a lot of autographs today," he said, before Minaj elaborated on her encounter with one woman and her breast autograph request.
"Tat's not the first boob I've signed. I sign lots of boobs," she said. "I sign left and right boobs, and that one was a really nice boob."
That was TMI for Randy, who let out a "whoa!" as Minaj continued. When the conversation veered back toward the city, the judges had a pretty simple reason for returning to Chicago.
Jackson said, "The deep-dish pizza."

It seems like every time I walk into a bookstore or library, there is a new flavor-of-the-month political book or memoir on display (like David Plouffe's The Audacity to Win or Sarah From Alaska, both out today). Although I enjoyed Dreams From My Father (and this behind-the-book blog post about how it got published), I'll admit that books by or about politicians are usually not my thing.
Since today is Election Day, however, I thought I'd post about a couple political books from our archives that have caught my interest. Please add your own suggestions in the comments. (Anyone pre-ordered Going Rogue. . . or Going Rouge?)
Clinton and Me by Mark Katz
"Humor in political discourse is a more potent weapon than spite. Mark Katz, who held the unusual position of presidential joke writer in the Clinton administration, proves this point decisively and with great fun in Clinton and Me: A Real Life Political Comedy. Katz begins his story in early 1995, when he tried to convince an unamused President Clinton to use an egg timer as the centerpiece of his speech before a group of Washington insiders known as the Alfalfa Club. The egg timer would serve as a comic device, allowing the president to make fun of himself for delivering an overly long State of the Union address. Clinton rejected the idea and went on to give a speech filled with spiteful, personal invectives; the evening was judged a disaster for the president."
The Conviction of Richard Nixon by James Reston Jr.
"Three years after his resignation, Nixon negotiated a large fee to do a series of interviews with British TV personality David Frost. In preparing for the encounter, Frost hired a team of researchers to supply him questions and background facts. One of that team was James Reston Jr. He chronicles the event in The Conviction of Richard Nixon."
John Updike once said in an interview that he wrote every day because "the pleasures of not writing are so great that if you ever start indulging them you will never write again."
In the spirit of diving into creative output (and not indulging the pleasures of procrastination), over 100,00 people will spend November pounding out nearly 2,000 words a day in order to complete their own 50,000-word (175-page) novels.
Chris Baty, a freelance writer from San Francisco, named November National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) in 1999. There were 21 participants. Since then, NaNoWriMo has exploded. Last year, over 119,000 people signed up, and 21,720 writers completed 50,000 words by 11:59:59 p.m. on Nov. 30, 2008.
In 2004, Baty published a book called No Plot? No Problem!: A Low-Stress, High-Velocity Guide to Writing a Novel in 30 Days. The first chapter explains the reasoning behind marathon writing:
What you need to write a novel, of course, is a deadline. . . Deadlines bring focus, forcing us to make time for the achievement we would otherwise postpone, encouraging us to reach beyond our conservative estimates of what we think possible, helping us to wrench victory from the jaws of sleep.
Since Nov. 1, I have enjoyed reading Twitter updates from hundreds of frenzied writers (search #NaNo for by-the-second tweets). As you might expect, some of them are flying (one woman posted that she's finished 6,672 out of 50,000 words). Others are suffering from pesky distractions (one participant tweeted: "I have to stop getting distracted by facebook and twitter! If you see me, tell me to get back to writing!"). In the Stanford Department of English, students are writing for a grade; this school year, National Novel Writing Month is an official seminar.
Are any of you in the midst of writing a novel for NaNoWriMo? If so, will you share plot details? To play devil's advocate: Anyone wary of the month's mission, which emphasizes quantity of prose over quality?
The publication earlier this month of The Red Book, Carl Jung's famous, near-mythic journal that has, until now, been seen by only a few dozen people, is a publishing coup, an incredibly valuable revelation for Jung's followers and a hugely important addition to the history of modern psychology and psychoanalysis. The book itself is remarkable, big (12" x 15 ¾"), heavy (8.8 lbs!) and printed on thick, ivory coated stock. It's an exact facsimile of the original that Jung worked on for 16 years, between 1914 and 1930. (The book is also expensive, with a suggested retail price of $195.)
A uniquely created, modern illuminated manuscript, each of the 205 pages is covered in exquisite calligraphy, with ornaments and drawings in the margins and borders and elaborately adorned initials. Full-page, tempura paintings of dreamscapes, mystical figures and creatures are interspersed throughout the text, featuring amazing detail and stylized graphic designs and mandalas in lush colors. The complete text was scanned one-tenth of a millimeter at a time with a 10,200-pixel scanner by technicians from DigitalFusion.
The journal describes his intense interior journey to refind his soul by breaking down the barriers between the conscious and unconscious that started in 1913 when Jung was visited by disturbing visions and inner voices. What began as a life-crisis (Jung himself said that he worried that he might be "doing a schizophrenia"), became a way for Jung to know and understand his spirit and to renew it. He went on to induce these hallucinations or "active imaginations," as he called them, for years (just think what a little LSD might have done). The Red Book was never published, though there's reason to think that Jung wanted it to be. It was kept in a closet in his Zurich home and ultimately, years after his death in 1961, secreted in an underground bank vault.
It took years of persuading to get the Jung family to agree to share The Red Book with the world. Now, edited and introduced by Sonu Shamdasani and translated from the German by Mark Kyburz, John Peck and Sonu Shamdasani, it can seen and studied by all. It has been called "possibly the most influential hitherto unpublished work in the history of psychology" and will surely shed new light on Jung's life and work for his followers and his critics.

Variety announced recently that Philipp Meyer's critically acclaimed fiction debut, American Rust, will be adapted for film by Walter Salles and Jose Rivera. That's the same writer/director duo who worked on The Motorcycle Diaries and are just finishing up work on the film version of The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao (read our review of Oscar Wao here).
Scott Stuber, whose most recent project was the Vince Vaughn movie Couples Retreat (about the furthest thing from American Rust we can imagine!) bought the rights and will produce.
Book-to-film is always a risky transition, but the quiet, compelling American Rust, which follos two friends who both long to escape their dying Pennsylvania mining town, might make the jump better than most. If you've read the book, what do you think?
Halloween is tomorrow. In an attempt to forget that I still do not have my costume ready (might have to take our winning, and brilliant, "Charlotte's Web" idea!), I'm posting some of my favorite spooky reading selections.
Mo Hayder's The Devil of Nanking is more about the horrors that people do to one another rather than anything supernatural—but that just makes it all the more terrifying. The story of a troubled British woman who goes to Japan in pursuit of a rare film clip from the 1937 Nanking massacre finds herself on the wrong side of the Japanese yazuka. In his review, Bruce Tierney warned readers that "this is a disturbing book . . . that resonates long after the last page has been turned" and we couldn't agree more.
If it's a ghost story you're looking for, look no further than Australian writer John Harwood's The Ghost Writer. Unsettling, sleep-with-the-lights-on suspense is combined with a nod to the Victorian ghost story as a young Australian man goes to England to investigate his mother's mysterious past. I reviewed this book for BookPage back in 2004 and said it was "more than a literary thriller," if you read it, let me know if you agree!
It was hard to choose one Stephen King book, but for me, Skeleton Crew is the most nightmare-inducing of his works. Possibly because of the terrifying cannibalism story, possibly because of the creepy monkey on the cover, drawn from one of the collection's most frightening tales, possibly because I read it first at the tender age of 12 and couldn't go to sleep while the book was in the room with me...I could go on, but read it yourself and you'll find plenty of reasons to shiver (it also contains the novella "The Mist").
Scott Smith's The Ruins is another spooky Halloween selection. Smith is a master at creating an atmosphere of dread—you just know nothing good is going to happen to the characters, but you can't stop reading. As he told us in an interview about the book, "When it came to choices, I would always opt to push it further, because I have an instinct that if I'm uncomfortable with it, I should do it."
But books that keep you up at night don't have to be thrillers—our editor, Lynn Green, says when she first read the galleys of The Lovely Bones, the description of Susie's murder was so chilling she had second thoughts about assigning it for review . . . though we did end up covering it.
Do you have a favorite Halloween read? Tell us in the comments. And don't forget to check out our haunting Halloween selections on BookPage.com.
The verdict's in after our literary-themed costume contest. . .
Fans of Nancy Holder and Debbie Viguié's New York Times bestselling Wicked series got a huge surprise on Monday. DreamWorks Studios (known for other book adaptations such as The Kite Runner and forthcoming The Lovely Bones ) bought the movie rights to the five-book saga, which tells the story of Holly Cathers, a descendent of a coven of witches (who falls for a guy from their rival House).
Since we know that a call from DreamWorks is a dream-come-true for an author hoping for a movie deal, we had to contact Holder and Viguié for their reactions to the news.
"Once we hit the New York Times bestseller list, the nibbles we'd had on our books became more serious," said Holder in an e-mail interview. "Then about three months ago, our literary agent, Howard Morhaim, and our film agent, Michael Prevett of Gotham Group, started preparing us that serious negotiations were about to begin, but I kept a lid on my hopes. Once we were in negotiations with DreamWorks, it dawned on me that we'd been writing about the reality of magic for seven years, and something magical was happening to us. I really took a look at the name of the studio...dream/works. A place that creates dreams. And makes them come true. I think every writer daydreams about selling a novel to a place like DreamWorks, but in our case, we stand to sell them five."
What Wicked scene do you most want to see on the big screen?
Nancy Holder: Well, avoiding any spoilers, I would love to see one of the big battles. I want to see Holly face down Michael Deveraux. And I would really love to see the scene with the birds in the skies of London. A certain song based on a ballad that we used would be lovely to hear on the soundtrack.
Debbie Viguié: Is it cheating if I say "all of them"? Seriously, from the second book, I'd love to see the scene where Nicole meets up with the Spanish coven in Europe.
Are there any actresses you envision as Holly, Amanda or Nicole?
NH: There have been some great fan YouTubes suggesting various actresses. I loved talking to the casting director(s) at "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" about how the show was cast. So much more goes into it than simply figuring out who would make a great Holly or a wonderful Nicole. The actors have to have chemistry with each other as well. Here are some actresses I would hope could have some sort of role in Wicked: Danielle Panabaker, Emily Browning, Zoe Saldana, Bryce Dallas Howard, Eva Green, Emily Blunt, Evan Rachel Wood, Keira Knightley, Scarlett Johansson and Natalie Portman. I would love it if Adrien Brody could have a part. BTW, Richard Dean Anderson is my guilty pleasure. I usually watch between five and ten episodes of "Stargate SG-1" a week.
DV: "Who would you cast?" is one of the favorite games my husband and I play. I've got ideas for several of the older parts, and I also love all the fan suggestions. I'd love to see Molly C. Quinn as either Nicole or Amanda, Jensen Ackles as Eli and Jackie Earle Haley as Uncle Richard.
What project are you working on right now?
NH: I'm so happy that Debbie and I are still working together! We're just about to turn in Crusade: Converted, the first book in a new series for Simon and Schuster. It's similiar in style and tone to Wicked, but it concerns a band of vampire hunters based in Salamanca, Spain, after the "Cursed Ones" have declared war on the human race. I'm in love with it.
It's that time of year when my weekly TV consumption increases by about 200% and the first newspaper section I read in the morning is sports. . . The World Series!
I'm not a huge baseball fanatic during the regular season, but when the post-season rolls around, I can't help but get caught in the fever. In the spirit of this year's Phillies v. Yankees showdown, I asked our Twitter followers for baseball book suggestions. We got a great variety of answers: from Wait Til Next Year, Doris Kearns Goodwin's memoir about bonding with her family through their love of the Brooklyn Dodgers, to Sliding into Home, Joanne Rock's new Harlequin anthology of baseball-themed steamy short stories.
At the start of the season in April, sports blogger Martin Brady wrote a baseball roundup for BookPage. He recommended Matt McCarthy's Odd Man Out: A Year on the Mound with a Minor League Misfit, a memoir of a minor league player in Provo, Utah; Straw: Finding My Way, about former Mets outfielder Darryl Strawberry; and others. If you're intrigued by the lives of umpires (I am – do they ever get hate mail?), you'll love Bruce Weber's As They See 'Em: A Fan's Travels in the Land of Umpires, in which the author "charts umpiring history, profiles some of the legendary practitioners, explains recent labor disputes and attempts to clarify some famous on-the-field incidents."
So, in honor of the World Series, here's a question to think about as you wait for tonight's first pitch: What book best captures baseball?
The title that immediately comes to my mind is Bette Bao Lord's now classic In the Year of the Boar and Jackie Robinson. My teacher read it to our class in the third grade, and I believe I got scolded for sneaking peeks at the book under my desk during math time (then went out an slugged a homer at my softball game after school.)
In this new weekly series, we'll excerpt a memorable passage from a book we're currently reading.
The Privileges by Jonathan Dee
January 2010 from Random House
She looked at him as if he were a little mad, but then she caught something exciting in his eyes and threw up her hands and said, "Why not?" That was it: everything was open to them. What was life's object if not that?
When I sat down to interview Jessica Verday at Davis-Kidd bookstore in Nashville, I hoped to hear juicy details about how she came to write a paranormal teen romance inspired by The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Well, I got that info (which you can read about here), plus an unexpected gift: perfume inspired by her book.
Abbey Browning, the main character in Verday's novel, The Hollow, loves to create scents with various herbs and oils. (Perfume-making provides a distraction while she's falling in love with Caspian, a mysterious guy she met at the Sleepy Hollow cemetery. . . )
Now, there are now real-life perfumes based on Abbey, Caspian and Kristen, Abbey's best friend.
Product description from Verday's blog:
Abbey: Clove, blood orange, honey, and red apples dance among a base of sandalwood and incense. Intoxicating. Lovely. Layered. Just like our heroine.
Kristen: Grapefruit, ginger, vanilla, and myrrh swirl together to create a sweetheart of a scent. What else could be a better fit for a best friend?
Caspian: Pumpkin pie, fall leaves, vanilla, and bonfire smoke make up this mysterious and luscious blend. Careful, too much will only leave you wanting more.
To win the perfume, read the profile and answer this question: What is the tentative title of book two in Verday's trilogy? The first person to e-mail me (eliza at bookpage dot com) with the correct answer gets the perfume (which, from the box, smells great!).

It might be time for Bob Dylan to get a checkup at the Mayo Clinic. Last seen in his home state on the night of the presidential election in 2008 – the winner of which just awarded him the Medal of Freedom a couple weeks ago – the Hibbing/Duluth native will finally return with his band to perform in Rochester at the Mayo Civic Center's Taylor Arena on Aug. 21. Tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. through Ticketmaster for $49.50 (general admission) and $55 (reserved).
There is currently no word of a Twin Cities date or any other Minnesota shows being added. Looking at his itinerary, there is a one-day window between Rochester and his Aug. 19 date at Fargo's Civic Auditorium, and then he has three days to get to his next date in Fort Wayne, Ind. He also booked a show in Sioux Falls, S.D., on Aug. 18. Dylan played Rochester twice in the '00s on his tours of small ballparks, both very memorable shows, as was his haggard but somewhat historic November 2008 concert at Northrop Auditorium (on the U of M campus where he famously dropped out and headed for New York).
Bob's not the only one curiously playing a road-trip-worthy date on his fall tour. Eighties cult legend Morrissey has booked an Oct. 30 date at the Surf Ballroom in Clear Lake, Iowa, which will follow an Oct. 29 gig at the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis. Tickets to the Orpheum concert go on sale through Ticketmaster Saturday at noon for $75-$39.50. If this year's Orpheum show is anything like the former Smiths' singers 2009 gig at the neighboring State Theatre – his first here in almost a decade, wherein he tore off his shirt not once but twice – it should be a fun one.
But ol' Moz might really cut loose at the Surf Ballroom. The post-war dancehall is a somewhat kitschy but absolutely one-of-a-kind venue best-known, of course, as the place where Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper last performed before their plane crashed in 1959. Check back at Morrissey's website for ticket info to be announced.

text: ELSMERE, Del. (AP) - Changes to the National Flood Insurance Program are bringing significantly higher premiums for thousands of Delaware property owners. Records obtained by The Associated Press show that of the roughly 25,900 flood insurance policies in effect in Delaware as of December 2012, more than 3,600, or 14 percent, are subsidized by the government and facing rate increases. In an effort to put the debt-laden program on sounder financial footing in 2012, Congress enacted a law aimed at requiring policyholders whose premiums have been subsidized to start paying rates based on the true risk of flooding at their properties. Congress recently changed that law to cap the increases at 18 percent a year for primary residences and multifamily buildings, while premiums for vacation homes and businesses will increase 25 percent annually.(Copyright 2014 The Associated Press.

Friday is National Donut Day, and FOX29 was treated to a special surprise during "Good Day."
Dunkin' Donuts brought in some donuts and their new sandwhich.
It's made up of fried eggs and bacon, all in between a split glazed doughnut.
All of that sweet and savory action clocks in at around 360 calories.
Mike and Jenn try out some of KimbertonWhole Foods and Victory Brewpub's beer inspired ice cream.

England head towards Ashes whitewash in Sydney
England appeared to be heading towards an Ashes whitewash after another hapless batting display as they closed day two of the final Test 311 runs behind at the SCG.
The tourists subsided to 155 all out by tea, and then Chris Rogers (73no) guided Australia to 140 for four at stumps to keep the onus on England to buck all the trends of their hugely unsuccessful tour to avoid defeat number five here.
Only Ben Stokes provided an oasis of effective batting in an England innings which yet again fell well short of requirements.
They lost four wickets for 15 to stumble to 23 for five - and hard as Stokes battled, in stands of 39 with debutant Gary Ballance and 49 with Jonny Bairstow, it seemed England's miserable campaign was accelerating towards an apt conclusion.

I agree! ...Too much gray.

Rand seems permanently sucked into enemy territory. The excuse that he's not his father is used a lot. ...Of course he's not; he's Rand Paul! ...But he certainly does like to compromise.
