Exhibition Rewrites the History of Han Civilization in China
CAMBRIDGE, ENGLAND — "The Search for Immortality: Tomb Treasures of Han China" on view at the Fitzwilliam Museum through Nov. 11 is one of those landmark shows that shed new light on a crucial historical period in one of the world's great civilizations.
The discoveries made in the past three decades by Chinese archaeologists have yielded so much datable evidence that books dealing with Han China must be rewritten.
The tour de force achieved by the curator of the show, James Lin, with the backing of the director of the museum, Timothy Potts, is to have brought to the West some of the art treasures that lay the foundations on which our understanding rests of the Han age in the second and first centuries B.C....

Great story, bit confusing in parts, a few grammars errors, but overall, I thouroghly enjoyed it
Thanks :)
Is the last line a quote from Casablanca?
Well I liked it. A lot of things seemed less real and too rushed. Such as Lupin and Kate. Then, I like it when people stick too the books, but you know. So this whole baby thing, but thats just me. I know I haven't given te best reviews in te past but I really did like th story. I would go to bed at night and wonder what was going to happen next :)
I'm sorry these people don't even know eachother and they are in love? I want to read more about Lilly and James!
I loved this chapter
I. Hate. Her. She is too cold for a good story.
I love your stories they make ME cry, and I'm a BOY!!!
I love fluff
did a chapter get missed? or did you not write how they escaped from malfoy in the forest? or is my computer broken? :) it goes right from the smoke, to talking about the gossip at hogwarts
This wasn't Peters' intentions, so i'm very sad that Peter ended up being the cause of James' death. All Peter wanted was to make new friends. This actually raises my view of Peter. This chapter had many unanswered questions, answered. For instance; why Peter betrayed James, why Peter was with Ron, and why Peter is such and unrespected death eater. This chapter nearly made me cry just how "The Prince's Tale" made me cry in the "Deathly Hollows." This is a very well written chapter.
I like where this is going, but in the real Harry Potter, Lilly has more of a relationship with Snape. I don't really think James sold himself to Lilly enough for her to even think that she loves him too.
wowwwwww!! this story is really good. it is by far the best lily and james fanfiction i have ever read!!! the first time i read it i actually thought you were j.k. rowling yourself, but then there are some unrealistic scenes there....nonetheless are really love your version of the lily and james love story.
my favorite character is, of course, lily evans. my favorite scene would be when james gave lily the gold necklace that had their intialls written in the back.
i have no idea what to expect in the sequel..... suprise me!!!!
I really do hate Cole...
What was your favorite quote in L/J: Their Story of Love? (GO DIGGING!)
"I meant, we made it," James whispered, kissing her passionately.
Who was your favorite JKR created character? (ex. Sirius, Lily, James, Remus) Lily
Who was your favorite OC? (ex. Katy, Halle) Halle
Which villain did you hate the most? (ex. Venus, Cole, Voldemort, Peter?) Cole HOW DARE HE TRY AND DEFY THE LOVE OF LILY AND JAMES!!! LOL :)
What was your favorite part and/or chapter in this fic? (GO DIGGING!) Chapter 60
What do you wish to see in the next fic?
Fluff! ( No, just kidding um....let's see, I don't care what you put!)
Who was your favorite couple? I liked them all. But...Sirius/Halle because they were really devoted to eachother.
Is there anything you didn't like story-related? (I'm not speaking of grammar.)
YES!! Ugh, no offense but they proclaim their love to eachother too much. "I love you" in my opinion, should only be used at neccessary times and if there are too many of those just put in a passionate kiss instead.
Thanks for listenin' ;)
"The L-BOMB? You dropped the L-BOMB on Lily Evans?" Sirius asked.
Chapter 59: The Big News
More cute fluff
I HATE Venus Adams.
By the way, that was amazing. I wont usually read stories this long, but it was well worth it.
That was a great story. My favorite quote was " I love you James Potter!" The first time Lily said it.
I can't choose a favorite character I like them all.
same as above.
When Halle found out she was pregnant.
How Lily and James get married and have Harry.
Its a toss up between L/J and H/S I can't choose.
The was James is thinking and the way she talks I think she's evil.
1.Well, let's just say I feel that Lily Evans deserves this honor. Before my days at Hogwarts, I didn't like people like Lily Evans. She was Muggle born and in my family, that wasn't good enough. A Black was above the rest, purest of blood. I then met someone who changed my whole perception; James Potter. We met on the train and I learned that it didn't matter who you were. All that mattered was what's in your heart. When it came time to be sorted, I wished and prayed that Slytherin was not in my future. My whole family belonged in Slytherin, but I, I wanted to go somewhere different. I wanted to be with people of noble hearts. The hat heard my pleas and listened. My family was outraged. From then on, I've had to prove myself to them. I've tried to gain their respect but have yet to prevail. Now, after seven years at Hogwarts, I feel that Lily Evans deserves to be here more than any of the scum people with the name Black. She did something for me that no one has done. She filled the void in my friend James' heart. She gave him the love he yearned for, for so long. And now, I've found love as well. Halle Douglas was a girl who changed my life forever. She helped me through my last year at Hogwarts. Without her, I would go insane. When I almost lost her, I knew I would never let her go again. So now, I wish to reveal to you all something I feel is important. The most important thing in my life. I married Halle Douglas and we're going to have a baby.
3.I liked Halle
4. Bellatrix, always hated her to begin with a.k.a that bitch killed sirius
5.hmmm.. Serious with Sirius. The name alone says it all!
6. I want to see more of Sirius and Halle and more of Katy and Lupin
7. I did not like Cole and his arrogance!

Robot-operated jeans store Hointer expands to Pacific Place
Under a temporary deal, Hointer will open a store in a portion of Restoration Hardware's old space this June and remain there through December.
Seattle Times business reporter
Local high-tech jeans store Hointer soon will expand from a single location in Wallingford to a new store at Pacific Place in downtown Seattle.
Hointer, which uses robotics and a smartphone app to sell designer jeans, will take a portion of the ground-floor space formerly occupied by Restoration Hardware.
Under the temporary deal. Hointer will open a 3,070-square-foot store off Olive Way and Seventh Avenue in early June and remain there until year's end, said Pacific Place General Manager Lynn Beck.
"It's being referred to as the store of the future," Beck said. "To be a part of that is a great opportunity for us. Our goal is to always offer something new and exciting."
Former Amazon.com executive Nadia Shouraboura opened Hointer's original store last fall at the base of an apartment building near Interstate 5 in Wallingford. She said she'll keep it open as a testing ground for technology upgrades.
Hointer displays only one of each style of jeans and puts the bulk of its merchandise in an automated stockroom. Shoppers use smartphones to scan the styles they'd like to try on and tap a button to select their sizes.
The store's app sends a message to the stockroom, where an automated system finds the desired items and delivers them to the shopper's dressing room.
Shouraboura, who oversaw order-fulfillment technologies during an eight-year tenure at Amazon, promotes Hointer as a faster and easier way to shop for clothes.
She said she also has signed a lease for a new store at Stanford Shopping Center in Palo Alto, Calif.

Robin Hoods Bay targets Lingfield prize
Last Updated: 07/01/14 10:48am
Robin Hoods Bay: Saturday option
Robin Hoods Bay is among 19 entries for the £19,000 Ladbrokes Conditions Stakes over a mile at Lingfield Park on Saturday, the second of three Fast-Track Qualifiers for the £150,000 Ladbrokes Mile over the same course and distance on All-Weather Championships Finals Day.
The Ed Vaughan-trained six-year-old enjoyed a fruitful 2013, winning twice on Polytrack before chasing home Farraaj in the 10-furlong, Group Three Winter Derby at Lingfield Park in March.
He also captured a valuable handicap at Haydock Park over the same trip in August, but has not been seen since finishing a respectable sixth to Prince Bishop in the Group Three September Stakes on Polytrack at Kempton Park in September.
Vaughan revealed: "I would imagine Robin Hoods Bay will run at Lingfield on Saturday. He has had a little niggle since his last run and I would be anxious to run him because I think he needs to get a run under his belt.
"A mile will probably be a little bit on the sharp side but it looks like the right race to start him off. He goes well fresh and is a horse who really comes on from one bit of work to another.
"I haven't been able to get the amount of work into him that I normally would, but we will be aiming him at the Winter Derby and Finals Day, so it will be good to get him back up to race speed."
The entries also include South American Group One runner-up Edu Querido and Grey Mirrage (both trained by Marco Botti), recent course and distance winner Galician (Mark Johnston), placed in three Listed contests during the All-Weather Championships, and Royal Hunt Cup fourth Don't Call Me (David Nicholls).
Other notable entries include the consistent Chookie Royale (Keith Dalgleish) and seven-time Southwell victor Dubai Hills (Bryan Smart).

When Zach Braff took to Kickstarter to fund his new movie, "Wish I Was Here," he explained to fans where their money would go: It would ensure his creative control, allow him to cast the actors he wanted, and enable him to shoot in Los Angeles, rather than someplace cheaper.
We can argue about whether these were worthy reasons to ask for $2 million (in fact, fans ultimately gave Braff more than $3 million, after which he also got traditional financing.) Certainly there was controversy — maybe not deserved — over whether a wealthy actor should be seeking money on Kickstarter. (If people are willing to pay, isn't it up to them?)
But here's a more urgent question: Why didn't Braff use this money to make a better film?
For all the brouhaha, "Wish I Was Here," which Braff directed, stars in and wrote (along with brother Adam), is so much less interesting than the circumstances of its making — not terrible, just frustratingly mediocre, and also corny, overly broad, meandering, not so funny where it intends to be, and not so sad where it intends to be, either.
And that's a shame, because it's taken Braff 10 years to get a follow-up to his debut, "Garden State," into theaters. Fans of that film — presumably, they're the ones who ponied up cash — deserved something better.
Braff plays Aidan Bloom, a struggling actor in LA in his mid-30s, who's far luckier in the family department than he deserves: He has two nice kids and a gorgeous, generous wife, Sarah (a very solid Kate Hudson, who also deserved a better film.)
Because Braff is cute and charming, we are, apparently, supposed to find Aidan cute and charming — which he might have been, 10 years younger. But there's little cute or charming about the way he stubbornly eschews a decent career to pursue his "dream" — auditioning for bit parts in sci-fi movies that he doesn't even get.

The Cleveland Browns haven't won two games in a row since the second and third weeks of last season, but they can change that with a victory over the Oakland Raiders on Sunday. At 3-8, the Browns are far out of the playoff race, but with new ownership taking over the team this season, both coaches and players are competing for jobs next season.
The good news for the Browns is that the Raiders have been unimpressive so far this season, entering the game with a 3-8 record as well. That said, the Raiders haven't won in over a month -- their last victory came on the road over the Kansas City Chiefs on Oct. 28. Since then, Oakland has lost four straight games to teams -- Tampa, Baltimore, New Orleans and Cincinnati -- that are in the thick of the playoff race.
The Browns, meanwhile, have been competitive over the last month -- beating Pittsburgh and Cleveland while narrowly losing to Indianapolis, Baltimore and Dallas. They'll look to keep that momentum rolling on Sunday when they head to the Bay Area.

Stingaree Review
One could argue that Stingaree was the Gaslamp's first megaclub and, almost a decade later, it's still going strong. Guests can enjoy electro and Top 40 in the main nightclub, a smashing three-story space with translucent "floating" staircases and floor-to-ceiling water walls. Dress nicely. The air of exclusivity at this hangout is palpable, and to reinforce the point, the drink prices are steep.

Rome Clientel - Free
Artist: Rome Clientel
Producer: ATG
Album: The Empire 2: The Battlegrounds EP
Avg Rating: 3.7 ( 7 total votes )
Elmira, New York emcee Rome Clientel may be new to our pages, but that doesn't mean the DJBooth rookie isn't putting in work. The upstate lyricist, who has worked with the likes of Skyzoo and Just Blaze, is currently preparing for the fall release of his The Empire: The Battlegrounds EP, and his latest song release, titled Free, serves as an accurate sample of what listeners should expect on the project. Described as a "potent rallying cry," Free touches on a series of critical topics which mostly relate to the United States' unstable economy. Backing the spitter on the production end is ATG, who adds a nice dose of soul to the record thanks to his use of sampling. A specific release date for Clientel's The Empire: The Battlegrounds EP has yet to be revealed, but the project is due out sometime between late October and early November.

StaticI can never leave.
Go on ahead.
Tell me what you see.
No lights, no air, no care.
All the reasons now escape me.
Insidious, enveloping.
Purposeless pain, decayed and failing.
My senses are abandoned now.
There is a dull ache in my head.
It does not speak, only mumbles.
Loud and inaudible.
It gives no orders, just leaves me stagnant.
Stagnant and static.
PitySleep town. Overwhelmed by all the empty and the nothing that i have to do.
Lies are an every day occurrence.
Your claims of purity have been exaggerated.
Too pitiful to ask for pity.
You contradict yourself with the way you breathe.
Judgment only sits well with the saintly.
You seem so full of shit lately.
The cracks are showing in your facade.
The pursuit of happiness is best left to those with nothing better to do.
InfatuatedI speak and you listen.
Still you cannot see.
You are enclosed, your secrets only to yourself.
Our private jokes, I want them more than poems can tell.
I can sense you around me,
When you are not here,
Your name and scent ring around my head,
I want to tell you everything, but I stop myself,
Forever the fool.
We talk daily,
For hours it seems,
All tension and no movement.
If I could pull up the courage,
I'd tell you how you make me so abnormal.
Thank you for reminding me that I still exist.
The Godess' GospelIt's hard when your lover is a writer who
uses beautiful words and broken imagery;
always striving to be beloved in her eyes,
and praying that she won't immortalize me
as broken as I see myself. She can beat
me with her words and slay me with the
truth as long as the abuse stays our secret.
I am a masochist, enjoying the strangulation
of a free verse or the bludgeoning of her
prose. When she is through my battered
soul hides within the facade of my skin and
never feels as exposed as when she is near.
Her delicate digits play scribe to my life on
the pages of her commandments, and I bow
down because when I kiss her I taste ambrosia
on her lips only proving that she is divine.
I Wish It Would RainI wish it would rain
That it would wash you away
Out of my skin
I wish the clouds would part
Shine light on realization
What I could be
I wish there was a rainbow
An arc of brilliant colors
A sign to give me hope
The Betrayal yet to be Forgave.Do you wish to live or wish to die
the choice is yours and not mine.
Why destroy such a beautiful thing,
just for pointless self-hatred?
To loathers looking to despise,
from lost lovers
to the sudden outburst of cries.
The heartfelt plea
is now stubborn
but not pleasantly surprised
by your betrayal,
now the pale kiss
because you was unfaithful in my eyes.
Its an uphill struggle
trying to scrape through unscathed
knowing i was broken.
Now you ask me what is wrong
then you ask me why i speak so grave,
the fact is you don't know the truth
behind, the betrayal yet to be forgave.
Beautiful.They say I'm beautiful
Because of the way my crystalline heart reflects light off its fractured surface
Well, that isn't a reflection
It's rejection of the light because it's all too much to handle
Throw myself away into the dark without even a candle
'Cause I don't want to recognize all the pain I'm in
Or realize the truth behind what I am or who I've been
And I tried to make things right but I just keep on making wrong
I never listened to the angel on my shoulder when she called
I count my tears like they're experience
And my scars like they're mysterious
And that's a feeling I'll remember –
Watching as you left
Watching as you ended what was meant to be forever
And I can see it in their eyes; everyone can empathize
So they say that I'm beautiful because they don't know what else to say.
But if being broken is beautiful, then it's the ugliest way...
Pearl When your heart is broken
Don't believe those liars.
The ones who say,
"There's other fish in the sea"
Why bother with a smelly, common fish,
When you can find a pearl?
And my darling…
You are a pearl to me.
Indecisive suicidePlunged into gloomy darkness
Snared there for eternity
Without an ounce of light inside me.
Farewell, all my former friends.
It wrecked and tore me inside,
I can't even walk anymore
I can't live no more
My fate is awfully decided.
My heart is pounding.
My hands are shaking.
Still, why is it so hard?
To end my life.
MonstersThese monsters lay within us,
in the cracks and folds of our memories.
Where girls have skulls for hearts as they see,
too much death that shall harden and kill their souls.
And boys with ghosts in their lungs,
wisps and swirls of being exposed to fires they cannot say.
People with shadows folded into their scars,
where wars with themselves are marked as military graves.
Threads hold your bones into your body and brain,
a system of nerves too twisted and strong to let you feel anymore.
Where ears ring a repetition of words, barbed wire,
whispered into your ear to cloud your vision, taint your paradise.
We battle them as water and fire but,
we are merely two halves of one soul,
so when the pain returns,
it's like welcoming an old friend home.
BlindImagine your life, like a light,
Having a parent with no sight,
And at a young age, you'll know your own way home.
To guide and to see,
Your life would soon be,
And your life getting less and less bright.
Friends making jokes,
About the non-seeing folks,
And you sit in your seat, in tears.
Trying to lend you a hand,
They just don't understand,
That the pain comes from words they spoke.
Though instead, think of whose life must suffer,
Images growing much rougher,
And they can't see their child's own face.
With bumped and bruised knees,
From such, normally, avoidable injuries,
Their skin and bones simply tougher.
The colors of anything, even the color of your eye,
Or maybe those boring old birds in the sky,
Your parent can't experience at all.
While you partially hope the trait isn't genetic,
Your heart is feeling quite sympathetic,
For the one you love, who suffers, never having hurt a fly.
And then....that's when you ask, why?
OneI can remember exactly when i first met you.
The slight crease in your face as you smiled.
If one thing could say something, then that did.
I can remember everything.
You shaped me. Made me.
We grew into each other. We fell apart with each other.
I cannot remember anything without you.
I can remember exactly when we first kissed.
The way your lips felt soft and curious, against mine.
If one thing could say something, then that did.
I'd live a million miles away.
Another life and world away, with you.
If I know what love is, it is because of you.

We don't actually understand why bikes stay upright as they move, writes physicist Michael Brooks at The New Statesman. A 2011 paper, published in the journal Science, poked big holes in the old theories about gyroscopic effects, and nobody has come along with anything to fill them yet.
The mysterious physics of bicycles
From our forums
Hi Maggie, look, I saw this article published a few years ago on Ars and, frankly, I was appalled. I posted there at the time, but I'd like to set the situation straight, here, again. People DO know how bikes 'right' themselves. Its not magic, its physics. Specifically, its friction. Why does a car 'right' itself? FRICTION! Its the same concept. The interface between the tires and the road cause the phenomenon. It literally takes MORE ENERGY to turn a wheel then keep driving along the same vector. Likewise, if you blow a tire in your car, it will vear off to that direction. A first year Engineering student can impart these basic facts. The real scandal here is that these people were allowed to graduate.
So, Maggie, feel free to post this response to Boing Boing on my behalf. Together we could blow the top off Bikey-Stay-Uppy-And-Go-Straighty Phenomenon!

Unseen World War I photos: German Trenches
The following photos were taken from 1914-1918 by my great-grandfather Lt. Walter Koessler during his time as a German officer in the first World War. They're part of a collection of over a thousand photos, stereographs and their negatives that my family has been saving for a century. This is an unusually large and complete collection, and I've taken on the task of preserving it and sharing it with you as I believe it deserves.
These photos have never been published before.

The first major federal nutritional overhaul of school meals in more than 15 years will have little effect on meals served to students in Inland schools, directors said Wednesday.
They are already serving students lunches and breakfasts with less sodium and more whole grains, fruits and vegetables, said Betsy Adams, director of child nutrition services at Corona-Norco Unified School District, the largest in Riverside County.
She said school nutrition directors in Riverside County already have salad bars offering more fruits and vegetables. As food manufacturers make more whole-grain burritos, crackers, pizza crusts and other products available, school districts serve them to students, who are adapting, she said.
Melodee R. Lopez works with school districts in San Bernardino County as operations manager and project coordinator for a Network for a Healthy California. She said the state is ahead of most on the nutrition regulations announced.
âMost districts I work with are not going to have to make a whole lot of changes,â Lopez said.
The state restricted vending machine sales to ban sugary soft drinks and other high-calorie snacks several years ago, Adams said.
The new national rules mean most offerings, including popular pizza, will be healthier. First lady Michelle Obama and Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced the overhaul.
The new rules aren't as aggressive as the Obama administration had hoped. Congress last year blocked the Agriculture Department from making some of the desired changes, including limiting french fries and pizzas.
A bill passed in November would require the department to allow tomato paste on pizzas to be counted as a vegetable, as it is now.

Home / Undergraduate / Why Screen Arts & Cultures? /
Eugene Jehl
Eugene Jehl is a junior who comes to the University of Michigan as a transfer student from Oakland Community College, where he studied Psychology, English, and Cinema Studies. Here at Michigan, he is a dual major in both Screen Arts and Cultures and English.
Hailing from Wolverine Lake, MI, Eugene has aspirations to be a writer. Screenwriter, novelist, maybe direct a little, as long as he is able to create original, emotional, and exciting stories for audiences to enjoy.
Currently, Eugene is working through every writing course the University of Michigan offers and filling out his schedule with film and literature studies classes. Outside of class, Eugene also works in the Donald Hall Collection, is one of the presidents of the Writers' Community, and is the treasurer of the Film Video Student Association. He also is working on producing enough writing material to enter (and hopefully win) every category in the prestigious Hopwood awards.
Despite his passion for writing, this does not limit his approach to film. He has worked on sets playing any role necessary, doing tech, directing, acting, editing, even being a personal assistant.
"At the end of the day I know that there is no other job I could ever have but a creative one. It took me a long time to figure that out, but once I finally learned that lesson I did my research and knew the University of Michigan was the place for me. The opportunities here are limitless and there is no place I would rather be."
