- Just Go!jtlc512Dined on 10/18/2014My wife and I absolutely loved this place! It totally felt like we weren't in Austin, and yet was funky and eclectic like Austin used to be. A series of small group rooms plus a couple of big dining rooms filled with Russian knick knacks and antiques gave the place a nice ambiance. I wish we still drank (not really) as their homemade organic infused vodkas looked phenomenal. Loved the food and extensive menu and they had a live jazz (ish) band while we were there too. The service was probably the weakest area, but she was fairly attentive and polite and did check back in on us. She was just a tad on the impersonal side and didn't have a lot to say beyond taking our order; could be a cultural thing. Just go!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- романтика diningyngwie35Dined on 10/14/2014The food was delicious. Though it was my first time to visit, I found the staff to be quite inviting, and was made to feel at ease -- free to browse all the interesting items sprinkled throughout the restaurant. I was invited to dine by an ethnic Russian native - through their guidance, I thoroughly enjoyed the items ordered, and will be visiting again soon.Special Features:
- Super simple foodsFoodieDined on 10/4/2014We love Nordic foods (beets, cabbage, herring, lamb, vodka) but had never tried Russian food. The food was delicious and simple and the price was fantastic! We will be back. (P.s. Great for gluten free and dairy free eaters)Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- A fun experienceDrewTerminatorDined on 9/25/2014As its name suggests, the place is wonderfully authentic. Food is quite tasty, and having vodka with the meal throughout was quite enjoyable. Go check it out, comrade!Special Features:
- Not what you expectsusanDined on 9/18/2014when we walked into the restaurant it was like stepping back in time to a dark back alley speak easy in Russia. Just glad we didn't judge the book by the cover. After a round at the bar, we were lead into the main dining room which was bright and clean. The food was authentic. It was served nice and hot. The waitress was very polite.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- We really enjoyed The Russian HouseoenophileVIPDined on 9/16/2014There are not many Russian/East European restaurants in Austin, and The Russian House does a great job. The food was delicious, and there are some choices you just won't find elsewhere. The wine list has some interesting Georgian wines, for those willing to experiment a bit. And our server Vika was great!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food, great serviceMeFoodTalkGoodDined on 9/13/2014Had never tried Russian cuisine before now. It was so good I'm now a Communist. Highly recommend the Pelmeni (veal). This was an incredible experience, comrades. If it's your first time, make sure to tell the wait staff-- very knowledgeable and will walk you through the menu.Special Features:
- Otlichno!okhotnikDined on 9/11/2014This was our first visit to Russian House but it won't be our last. The beef stroganoff and the lamb in special sauce were both great and the Ukranian borscht was equally tasty. I don't think I've ever seen quite the extensive array of Vodka offerings anywhere before. I tried the Oligarch - smooth as silk. Our waitress Natalia was helpful and attentive. (Spasibo vam bolshoya) And let me tell you about the Napoleon we ahd for dessert - a lovely treat. Yes - I'll be back!Special Features:
- Real Russian HospitalityJayegDined on 9/5/2014Where else can you sample dozens of infused vodkas, eat cabbage in various forms, and enjoy a jazz combo with jazz balalaika being strummed? The service was friendly and welcoming. Loved the salad of pickled carrots and beets. And the egg with red caviar? Yes! This isn't a place for light dining, this is food that sticks to your ribs. It was an enjoyable evening.Special Features:
- Great girlfriend date spotnotafoodienotawriterDined on 9/4/2014My girlfriend and I always celebrate our bdays together and she suggested we try Russian House this year for our bday dinner. The place feels like someone's house, which makes it very inviting. You're given a chilled vodka shot when you are seated. We ordered one speciality cocktail, Stalin's something or other and it was quite tasty. We also ordered a jasmine and honey vodka to taste which was also very good. For food we went with beef stroganoff and the stuffed cabbage. I was hesitant about the cabbage but it was delicious. I loved how everything tasted and felt like I was at someone's grandma's house being served homemade dinner. I'll be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best kept secretaustinjazzfanDined on 8/29/2014Unique and delicious appetizers and entrees and the MOST reasonable price you will find downtown. Fabulous music in the bar on weekends, and more varieties of unusual infused vodka shots than I could count. My fav: a citrus elderflower infusion....WOW! The bartenders and waitresses are very freindly and attentive. Overall, this is a great place to spend the evening - bar before, dinner, and back to the bar after diessert!Special Features:
- Great experience!AustinFoodieDined on 8/20/2014Incredibly authentic tasty food with a very Russian ambiance. I look forward to my next meal here!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great placeJimR616Dined on 8/15/2014The Russian House is one of my favorite places in Austin. The ambiance is straight from St. Petersburg, and the food and service are great. I will come back again and again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- UnexpectedTravelingtodineDined on 7/29/2014We were looking for something different and we found it. It was my husbands birthday and the succulent elk pelmeni and the decadent Napoleon made him very happy. Our friends split the hunters plate and said it was delishSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- USSR Flashback... in a good wayMadisonDined on 7/26/2014what a fun & funky place-a mashup of Russian Ukrainian Czech Polish Lithuanian Uzbekistanian food & culture. literally dozens of freshly infused vodkas to choose from; very modest meals (peasant rolls) to very extravagant (champagne & Beluga caviar). Great live music after 8:30-private rooms for large parties and a large dining room for quaint cozy intimate seating. the food was quite good but the atmosphere was the best. there are "loaner" coats & hats for each customer to feel like they are back in old USSR... in a good, nostalgic way. service so good & everyone so nice & accommodating. staff very eager to explain each dish and very patiently answer all questions. parking an issue but Eddie Vs @ the corner allows valet until 12aSpecial Features:
- Very nice russian night!AcantalDined on 7/25/2014We happened to book the Russian House for dinner during a party night (Black & White Hollywood night), expecting it would be quite noisy, but didn't find it that bad (on the noise aspect), quite the opposite, nice piano music and attentive service. The food was overall very good (we had 4 different dishes and the blinis to start, excellent, must try!), the only little problem being that the waitress waited too long to let us know they were out of one of the orders...too late to choose another one (as the other orders were almost ready), so we we're "pushed" towards the chef special, which was our least favorite dish...and it came a little cold. Despite of that, the service compensates for the mishaps and we will most likely be back!I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great real Russian FoodOpenTable Diner Since 2001Dined on 7/22/2014Great authentic food from former Soviet Union at a reasonable price.Special Features:
- I don't always eat Russian food...FantasticVIPDined on 7/19/2014But when I do, I will go to this restaurant! Really neat building, cool bar up front with a ton of infused vodkas, live music. Free shot of vodka and appetizer was nice. The owner came by and gave some good recommendations for first-time guests. We had never eaten caviar so we had the egg with red caviar. It was different, fishy, but we like trying new foods. I recommend squeezing the lime over it with a little dill (included). The Pelmeni was described to us as a type of soup but came in a bowl with a lid and only had the meat dumplings in them. We chose the veal which was a little gamy but good. The Golubtsy was fantastic. Great sauce, fresh herbs, I highly recommend it! Kiev cake was delicious. Worth a visit, real homey atmosphere.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Different from anything aroundFrancescaVIPDined on 7/19/2014The food was good, great service, nice ambiance. I would suggest it if you want to try something differentSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fabulous DinnerJulesDined on 7/11/2014Wait staff was very helpful, dinner was delicious, vodka selection which they are known for was very fun, and the place had a great decor. I don't know if this is 'authentic' Russian food but it is very good. A bit pricey but worth it. The restaurant portion was also quiet which I loved! It connects to a fun bar but there is a door that separates them so while eating I could actually talk quietly with my dinner companion.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Russian House AustinfoodforfunDined on 6/14/2014Russian House was a good find for a quirky place to try and expand horizons. The bar in the front, restaraunt in the back had a very Eastern European feel. The service was good. The food we had was pretty good, the appetizer came with vodka shots always a good choice. The main courses were tasty but not necessarily an oh my thats awesome plate. The menu in my opinion had too many choices versus here are a few great Russian dishes one must try. Same for the cavair and vodka selections. Russian house has potential and overall would recommend to others. Go try it, good prices for a lot of food.I would recommend this to a friend.

- Love Russian food..whodathought?justMHODined on 5/18/2014We went for a birthday celebration for something unique and all three were surprised that we loved each dish. Had the Julliene Classic mushroom dish, borscht soup, beef stroganoff, stuffed cabbage and of course the infused vodkas. Each one was perfect! The service was also excellent and it was quiet on a Sunday evening with no band. We had read in reviews that sometimes it's loud with the bar noise or band. All in all, I will not wait for another 'special occasion' so go back for more.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Dining Gem in Austin!GourmetVeggieSleuthDined on 5/15/2014I was very pleasantly surprised at how much i enjoyed The Russian House during a Girls Night Out with a friend. It was different from the other fine restaurants in Austin. The evening starts out with a complimentary vodka shot on the house! I was initially skeptical as I was a vegetarian. I thought I might have very few food options. Our waitress pulled out a full vegetarian menu for me!! I plan to go back there with my entire family soon for a unique, delicious dining experience. The cocktails, wine and vodka selections were off the charts too! There was a Russian musician playing the piano and singing outside the dining area at the Bar. Oh and patient, polite service all night! It makes for a fantastic night out!Special Features:
- Tasty & Unique ExperienceOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 5/13/2014Russian House is a completely unique experience.... from the front it doesn't look like much until you walk through the large wooden door in the back and you are transported to cosy Russian "home" setting. The food is simple and delicious in a kitsch environment. The hand infused vodkas are a fun addition to any meal. They offer a wide variety of gluten free options as well. Wait staff was engaged and made the night even more memorable. Great experience! Eggplant rolls are a must!Special Features:
- MagicalfoodiegaloreDined on 5/12/2014A very neat social scene, worth the trip. Where else can you get your fill of vodka from what seemed to be 50+ jars of infussed drinks.Special Features:
- Delicious!thannerDined on 5/11/2014Our first time trying Russian food- will absolutely be back! Traditional and more modern Russian dishes, very wide variety. We had the borscht, vinaigrette salad, stroganoff, homemade dumplings, blinis and the classic julienne. We ended up sharing everything, because it was all delicious. The classic julienne was my favorite...wild mushrooms in a baked sour cream sauce. The food was rather heavy though, you definitely won't leave hungry!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Off-night in the kitchenOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 5/11/2014Our meal on Sunday was truly awful. Something was seriously wrong in the kitchen that night. My chicken tabaka with marinated vegetables was so shot through with salt that it was inedible and had to be sent back. Another's sturgeon shaslik, the same thing and the fish itself had such a strong, unpleasant fishy taste and was so undercooked as to be worrisome. He should have sent it back but felt bad doing that as we'd just had to send back my chicken dish. The cold borscht which I've had before and loved was not good that night, the predominant taste being that of horseradish, which really did not work in a beet borscht. The only thing that was good of all the things we tried was the eggplant caviar.
- Da!SuperdomeDined on 5/11/2014Brought my Ukraine born wife for Mother's Day. What better compliment can a Russian restaurant have than her feeling that she had been transported back in time at least 30 years to her small town of Lenin with her late mother and all of her friends cooking for a holiday meal!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- za tva-jó zda-ró-vyeAmbianceDined on 5/11/2014'To Your Health': The service, food and ambiance at this Russian Jewel on 6t street in Austin was amazing. Definitely a change of pace from your routine restaurant. Well worth the drive!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Awesome & Vegan FriendlyRyanDined on 5/8/2014In town for a conference I was looking for something a bit different, yet delicious. My hotel room looked down into the roof of this place, which is painted with the name if the restaurant, so I checked it out. I'm glad that I did! Ambiance made me feel I was in an 80's spy movie. Meal started with a complimentary vodka shot with some fresh veggies. I had the beet & tomato salad, the potatoes and onions, and the halva for dessert. My waitress helped me to decide on all an said that they would all go well together. It was all delicious. Being vegan there were plenty of options for me to choose from, which was pretty great and a welcome change to so many other joints in Austin. The honey ginger infused vodka was awesome as well!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Thank you to The Russian House!erinbrooks6Dined on 4/20/2014My husband and I had a blast trying out new foods at the Easter brunch. We're obviously not Russian, and we've never experienced a cultural experience quite like it since we've never been to Russia either. The Russian decor and atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable. Everyone was very friendly and answered any questions we had. The food was fantastic and I enjoyed hearing the other patrons speaking Russian. I would love to visit again someday!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Already planning on return trip.AmyEatsDined on 4/19/2014An original. You don't have to be familiar with Russian to love this place and recognize great food when you've been served it. There are so many infused vodkas and signature cocktails you could easily come back 50 times and try something different. I love that diversity. We also had the borsch and the beef roll - both fantastic. Can't wait to come back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

North, South fight for history on Cedar Creek battlefield
By Joe Beck
Puffs of white smoke and crackling gunfire filled the air as about 2,500 Civil War reenactors gathered on the Cedar Creek Battlefield in Middletown on Saturday to replay the Battle of Rutherford's Farm.
Confederates representing Maj. Gen. Stephen Ramseur's division tangled with Union forces led by Brig. Gen. William Averell for about an hour in front of a crowd organizers estimated at about 2,500 to 3,000.
The battlefield reenactment was the most dramatic of a range of activities conducted on or around the battlefield as part of the 21st annual Cedar Creek weekend. Tim Stowe, president of the battlefield foundation that organized the event, said reenactments send a sobering message to modern audiences as they watch the sacrifices of earlier generations.
"It's important to keep in mind what happened to our country in the 1860s, so it doesn't happen again," Stowe said.
Stepping back in time has its limits, despite the pageantry of period costumes, music from 19th century musical instruments and hundreds of white tents that formed the backdrop to the battle reenactment.
They don't make Civil War battles like they used to nor would anyone want to do so. The original Battle of Rutherford's farm was fought miles to the north near Winchester.
Spectators and reenactors at Saturday's event took considerable comfort in the absence of live ammunition inflicting gruesome wounds on the participants.
The passage of 148 years since the first battle meant the dead lying on the ground were back on their feet in blooming good health after the Union troops had completed their rout of the Confederates. It also meant that the black men serving up cheese steak sandwiches at a concession stand were working because they chose to be there as free citizens, not as slaves.
Those in uniform included real life lawyers, teachers, truck drivers, students, and retirees, some of whom traveled long distances to play their parts. But few, if any of them, came from as far away as Hagen Derra, a printer from Germany who lined up on the battlefield with Company C of the Second Virginia Cavalry.
Derra said the event marked the consecutive year he has come to Middletown to participate in the Cedar Creek Weekend. The story of how someone born, raised and still living in Germany plugged into American Civil War history begins with his marriage to a woman from Salem, Derra said.
During a visit to the United States, her father introduced him to some reenactors. Derra, who was already a military history buff, said he came away enthralled when he learned about their activities.
"I thought it was outstanding," Derra said. "I thought this is a dream. I didn't think it was possible."
Historians estimate 216,000 German immigrants fought in the Civil War with Union forces and a few thousand more with the Confederates. Derra said fighting as a Southerner appeals to him because the demise of the Confederacy carries some lessons for today's Germans.
Germany's tormented history in the first half of the 20th century left the country struggling to come to grips with the military's prominence in German society and the devastation of two world wars, Derra said. Germans, like Southerners, found themselves faced with tens of millions of lives lost and profound suffering caused by leaders who sought to murder and enslave other humans.
As a result, Derra said, traumatized Germans have lost their appetite for displays of patriotism and celebrations of military valor and sacrifice since the end of World War II.
"They don't want you to show patriotism," Derra said of his countrymen. "They don't want you to wave a flag except at sporting events."
He said his grandfather earned an Iron Cross in recognition of bravery while fighting Soviet forces in Russia during World War II, but hid the medal in a cupboard.
Derra said cavalrymen have had a long and distinguished history in the German military going back to the reign of Frederick the Great in the 1700s. He had yearned to get a taste of what life was like in a cavalry unit but had given up hope of doing so until he discovered Civil War reenactments in the United States.
At last, he found an outlet for his passion in a completely unexpected place.
"I felt more at home coming here than I did at home, Derra said.
"I spend all my resources doing this," he added. "It's very worthwhile. I know of no other place in the world I can do this."

Listened and watched from a long distance at the Oranda property today. Watched this several times from there. The south always seems to start out good but the northerners always seem to come back! The whole reenacting thing is silly to me but from that high point of Oranda it sure hits home that if I stood there at that same place and watched that 148 years ago it was all for real.

St. Athanasius Academy of Orthodox Theology
Latest from the Academy:
April 2013 Newsletter
Dear friend of St. Athanasius Academy:
The Spirit of the Fast and Loving Kindness
A prisoner-student asks: Prison makes keeping the tradition of the fast, difficult, especially during Great Lent. Does this mean I am less Orthodox?
Our response: Fasting is a righteous act of the Church, helping us fulfill the words of Scripture, "...build ourselves upon our most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, to keep ourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life." Jude 1:20-21
Truly, fasting helps us stay in the love of God the Word, Jesus our Christ. For He is our Creator and the foundation of our faith, Who gifts us the mercy of His blessings and promises each, eternal life.

March 2013 Newsletter
Dear friend of St. Athanasius Academy:
At St. Athanasius Academy, we have been serving the spiritual needs of prisoner-students since 1994. We offer 16 study courses from our expanding correspondence division – The Apostles Peter and Paul Prisoner Education / Scholarship Program. We offer Certificates of Completion and a Diploma. Of our many hundreds of students, only one to our knowledge, has returned to prison. Most prisoners complete our core courses before being paroled. Our work is changing hearts and transforming lives. Thank you for your help!
Our Correspondence Program continues to be strong, as we put particular emphasis on the laity of His Church, both in the United States and Canada. Our study program begins in helping prepare the hearts and minds of our students, as they draw nearer the Word of God, and become ever more in union with Jesus, He Who is our Christ. We then move to our core studies, which focus on the Apostolic Fathers, History of the Church, and the Incarnation. Throughout we come to discover our dignity is being in His image and of His likeness and what it means to live in the realities of His promises and the hope of faith. Our studies have expanded to include both e-mail and Web-cam studies. Email us for a catalog.

February 2013 Newsletter
Dear friend of St. Athanasius Academy:
...that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Jn. 3:16
Let us be patient in the midst of sorrow, while yet seeking the Lord's Peace, reminding ourselves of; His Baptism in the River Jordan by John, the promise of His Father, and the comforting presence of the Holy Spirit. For in this is our invitation to live our lives – this day – in the words of hope given the Repentant thief. This on the very day our Lord and Savior, laid aside His human flesh on His Cross.
In this mystery, let us find the joy able to overcome grief, transform hearts, and bring a spirit of thankfulness, giving all glory to Him. For in this, is the gift of participating in the intimacy of His love; a love evermore intricately interwoven as one harmonic expression of our being clothed in His Grace.

January 2013 Newsletter
Dear friend of St. Athanasius Academy:
This Season of our Lord – His Birth and Baptism – is a season of fond memories for those who came together to form the Academy. They came seeking the gift of great hope and renewed promise of His Incarnation. And this, not for themselves, but for anyone seeking the gold placed within by the Lord.
I am thankful for the opportunity to have known, met, and worked with them. Few have shown such dedication in seeking this great faith; of diligently contemplating, confirming, and keeping the Word of the Lord – His Holy Scriptures, oral traditions, and Seven Ecumenical Councils. Such great grace and compassion, with a willingness to struggle for the sake of the Lord's own, are virtues we can strive to imitate.

December 2012 Newsletter
Dear friend of St. Athanasius Academy:
The birth of Jesus, He being our true Christ, begins the fulfillment of Isaiah (OSB-Is. 9:5). His nativity opens the door to us; to the restoration of our fallen relationships with our Lord, between men and women, and with all of His creation.
Let us marvel in a virgin giving birth to a son. Let us be amazed – this Child, the Word of God Incarnate. Let us be filled with awe, knowing that what Jesus assumed to Himself, is being healed, as we are being reconciled to Him. Let us rejoice in the significance of women being restored and healed, through this young virgin called Mary – the second Eve - who gave birth to God the Word in the flesh.

In her latest collection of short stories, Fountain of Age: Stories, author Nancy Kress offers her readers nine glimpses into futures fantastic, paired with human impulses as old as time.
In "End Game" an extraordinarily gifted seventh-grade boy named Allen is carried screaming from math class. He has come to a revelation that will alter the focus of his world and the world of those around him, half a lifetime in the future. In "Images of Anna" photographer Ben is increasingly flummoxed when the glamor portrait shots he takes of his latest client turn out to be anything (and anyone) other than he'd expected. In "Laws of Survival" Jill, a shattered survivor of The War, finds the most unlikely means of healing while trapped aboard an extraterrestrial outpost with 19 dogs. In "By Fools Like Me" Hope's grandmother grapples with the morality of relinquishing a cache of sinful Pre-Crash artifacts to her society, which is hobbled as much by its ignorance of history as by its fear of repeating it.
Kress works in the media of human emotions upon the surfaces of extraordinary situations with the subtlety and skill that Andrew Wyeth once applied egg tempera to panel. The stories contained with Fountain of Age are provocative, mildly disturbing, and at times oddly wistful. They represent a curious blend of styles, at one turn reminiscent of O. Henry, at another, Shirley Jackson, yet in every respect distinctly Kress' own.
Kress is recommended for readers who are short on time but crave well-crafted situational tales capable of fully absorbing the imagination. Those who have already read and enjoyed Fountain of Age may also enjoy Orson Scott Card's Shadow Puppets.
Whether graduating from high school or from college, the future is an exciting adventure waiting to be discovered. Amelia Anne is Dead and Gone, by Kat Rosenfield, permits readers to share in both of these experiences through its main characters. At the start of the story, Becca has graduated with honors from high school. She has waited her entire life for this moment, when she can finally cut the strings to her small, backward town and move on to a bigger and better life. She only has a few months of summer to endure before starting college in the fall. In alternating chapters, the reader simultaneously experiences the story of Amelia, who has just graduated from college. Amelia is eager and excited about the prospects of graduate school and an acting career beyond that. Both young women are filled with hope and expectations; however one of their stories will be tragically cut short.
As stated in the title, Amelia Anne dies, a victim of violent crime. Her beaten body is discovered on an isolated road, not far from where Becca lives. The murder of this young woman traumatizes Becca and suddenly the world seems too frightening to venture out into. Rosenfield has crafted a unique story that is part character study and part mystery, which explores the nuances of small town life, relationships, and the blackness that can dwell in the heart of men. This is a haunting tale that will keep readers spellbound as the story of these two girls culminates in an amazing and unexpected conclusion.
Author Ron Rash hails from the hills of North Carolina and is the chair of Appalachian studies at Western Carolina University so it is no surprise that his novels are steeped in the culture of the Smoky Mountains. Rash's star is on the rise; an earlier book, Serena, is being made into a movie starring Jennifer Lawrence and his latest book, The Cove, made the NYT bestsellers list.
In The Cove, Laurel Shelton and her brother Hank live in a gloomy cove outside rural Mars Hill, North Carolina. Their homestead is considered cursed after the untimely deaths of their parents and Laurel, born with a purple birthmark covering her shoulder, is marked as a witch and shunned by the superstitious townspeople. Laurel hopes Hank takes a wife, as a sister-in-law will ease her loneliness. Instead, Laurel finds an injured mute flutist named Walter in the woods and as the Sheltons shelter Walter, a relationship blossoms between the two. At the same time, the Mars Hill residents are infected by the prevailing anti-German sentiment generated by WWI and the hysteria threatens to spill over into the cove even as Laurel begins to suspect Walter of harboring a dangerous secret.
Rash's intimate knowledge of the Appalachian people shines through in this book and he often weaves fact and fiction together. Mars Hill and its college are real, as were the Vaterland cruise ship and the beautiful but hunted to extinction Carolina parakeet. The narrative is rich with colloquial speech, the main characters are well-developed with Laurel especially written well, and the story unfolds in Southern Gothic tradition as a stonecutter quoting Gray's Elegy says "the paths of glory lead but to the grave." Readers who appreciate books set in the mountains of the American south might also enjoy author Sharyn McCrumb.
Take two single parents, two teenagers, add a European vacation, and some misplaced luggage and you have a delightfully dreamy story: In the Bag by Kate Klise.
Daisy is a successful chef who just quit another restaurant. She travels to Paris to clear her head and brings along her daughter, Coco, who is getting ready to graduate from high school. Andrew is on the same flight in order to get to Madrid to oversee the installation of an art exhibit. His teenage son Webb joins him on the trip. Andrew spots Daisy on the flight and is instantly attracted to her. He slips a flirty note in her purse, gives her his email, and asks for a date. Daisy is distinctly unimpressed and fires off a scathing email rejecting Andrew's offer.
Meanwhile, Webb and Coco pick up each other's bag at the end of the flight. They find each other's contact information and start an email dalliance. This digital friendship progresses so much that the two arrange for Webb to travel to Paris to pick up his bag and meet Coco in person. Andrew and Daisy are also set to meet the same evening when Daisy is called in as a last-minute caterer for the grand opening of Andrew's exhibit.
The story unfolds from the unique viewpoints of the four main characters and readers see just how differently men, women, parents, and children think. While working for People magazine, Klise herself was the recipient of a secret admirer note in her carry-on which gave her the spark for this fun trading places story. As a bestselling children and teen author, Klise's adult debut is a fast-paced, humorous, and romantic gem which will leave readers waiting for a follow-up.
Have you ever wondered how your email travels all the way from your computer to your mother's laptop half way across the country in a few milliseconds? Or how a sports fan with a smartphone in LA can know the outcome of the World Cup in Spain moments before the live TV broadcast? Andrew Blum, author of Tubes: a Journey to the Center of the Internet, explores how the Internet works as a physical system, full of buried connections, rivers of wires, humming servers, and fiber optic transoceanic cables.
Blum journeys on a pilgrimage to the Internet's most important data centers and information hubs in an effort to find 'pieces of the Internet', and to view the Internet as both a virtual and physical place. Along the way, he meets with many of the Internet's unsung heroes and follows his nose to ferret out just where all our data goes when we press 'send'. Through his surprisingly personal trek across the world in search of the Internet, Blum grapples with conflicting definitions and perceptions of the Internet that in the end help illuminate its many facets. With the emergence of cloud storage and wireless everything, it's refreshing and relieving to realize that even something as amorphous as the Internet is grounded in the physical, real world.
A little bit history, a little bit philosophy, a little bit spiritual, Tubes is great for readers who are curious about the behind the scenes action of the largest connected interface in the world. Fans of James Gleick's The Information: a History, a Theory, a Flood and Tim Wu's The Master Switch will certainly enjoy this thought-provoking new title.
Bestselling Canadian author Catherine McKenzie's second novel, Arranged, is now available in the US, and it's one that chick lit readers will not want to miss.
Anne Shirley Blythe is named after the character from Anne of Green Gables because her mother is obsessed with the series. Anne reasons that because she is named after a romantic heroine, it's only natural that she would want her own happily ever after. She has a lot of great things going for her. She has good friends and a loving family. She's a successful writer who is about to have her first book published. Unfortunately, Anne has a history of disastrous relationships. She keeps getting involved with the wrong men, and she begins to see that they are a lot alike.
After another failed relationship, Anne finds a business card for Blythe & Company, which she thinks is a dating service. The card simply says "arrangements made." When her best friend gets engaged, Anne makes a momentous decision and calls the number on the card. That's when she learns that Blythe & Company is not a dating service as she had imagined. It's an arranged marriage service. Anne finds herself going through the process and is soon on her way to a resort in Mexico to marry a man named Jack who she will meet the day before their wedding. That's just the beginning of the story, though.
What follows is a story about learning the difference between what you think you want and what you truly need. McKenzie has a real talent for creating characters with depth. Arranged is by turns funny, honest, and heartbreaking. Just when you think you know where the story is going, a plot twist changes everything!
If you like American short stories, chances are you've read Flannery O'Connor, whose biting sense of humor, peculiar characters, and hauntingly redemptive tales have made her one of America's most celebrated writers. But did you know that before she wrote fiction, O'Connor had originally set out to be a cartoonist? The new book Flannery O'Connor: The Cartoons explores this iconic author's lesser-known talent and brings her illustrations together for the very first time.
O'Connor began drawing at the early age of five and went on to make cartoons for her high school and college newspapers. These cartoons, with their quirky, almost grotesque style and spot-on commentary about student life in the early 1940s, made O'Connor something of a local celebrity at her Georgia college. Those who have read O'Connor's classic short story collection A Good Man Is Hard to Find or her 1962 novel Wise Blood will love seeing her trademark humor on display in these early drawings. In one cartoon, two students dance joyfully hand-in-hand while the caption below reads, "These two express the universal feeling of heart-brokenness over school closing." In another, a lone bespectacled young woman (clearly meant to be the author herself) watches her popular classmates dance at a college social and says to the reader, "Oh well, I can always be a Ph.D." These speak to O'Connor's knack for carefully observing the world around her, a process she once described as the habit of art.
In addition to a handsomely presented gallery, Flannery O'Connor: The Cartoons also features an essay delving into the author's life and eventual transition to writing fiction. This interesting book has great appeal for O'Connor fans and anyone who enjoys satirical cartoons.
As the summer games in London heat up, gymnastics is on center stage. For fans yearning to learn more, this popular sport is brought to life in three new children's books perfect for gold medal dreamers.
One girl who achieved her gold medal dream was Dominique Moceanu, the youngest member of USA's 1996 winning team. She trades the balance beam for a pen with a delightful new series of books for young readers. The Go-for-Gold Gymnasts, co-written by Alicia Thompson, follows teammates on the competitive Texas Twisters. In Balancing Act, Noelle must learn to juggle family, friends, and boys with the time and training required to make it as a star gymnast. Brittany is the focus of Winning Team, following her move to Texas to train with the best. But her teammates aren't so fond of her, and her coaches are less than impressed. Brittany must learn quickly the true meaning of teamwork. To date, there are four books in the series (the others are Unexpected Twist and Reaching High) and each has storylines familiar to all twelve year olds, combined with the behind-the-scenes rigors of elite gymnastics.
Fourteen-year-old Joey is also an aspiring gold medalist and desperately wants to win at this summer's regional championship. Her hopes and dreams are at the heart of Gold Medal Summer by Donna Freitas. Joey loves gymnastics, but loses some of her focus when events in her life spiral out of control. She gets her first kiss from a very cute boy, her best friend threatens to quit gymnastics, and her parents aren't supportive. Drawing on her experience as a competitive gymnast, Freitas delivers both a terrific gymnastics story and a classic novel about bending the rules and vaulting to success.
In Yuck's Amazing Underpants and Yuck's Scary Spider, by Matt and Dave, Yuck is a boy determined to harass his sister, Polly Princess. In the first story of the two-title collection, he has cleverly cultivated the mold and germs that are growing in his underpants by wearing them every day for 6 weeks without washing them. When his amazing underpants come to life, he trains them to mess up the house after Polly Princess cleans. The entire story is filled with gross details of his madcap adventure to aggravate his sister.
The second story has Yuck adopting a friendly, hairy arachnid who is promptly caught by the school principal. Yuck hatches a plan that involves training spiders to crawl into his sister's mouth while she is sleeping. He does this in order to sneak them into school to help rescue his new pet, while incriminating his sister in the process. With characters named Tom Butts and Fartin' Martin, this is not a read-aloud but rather one to give to young readers who enjoy lowbrow humor. Resist the temptation to ask why they are giggling uncontrollably.
Yuck has been popular in the UK for a few years, and is just now being published in the United States. Perfect for fans of the Captain Underpants series, it will leave your young reader in stitches. Be sure to also check out Yuck's Slime Monster and Yuck's Gross Party.
An ordinary girl. A mysterious boy. A horrific accident. A countdown to…the end? The truth is indeed out there, and Janelle Tenner is determined to discover it at all costs in Elizabeth Norris' debut novel Unraveling.
Upon leaving the beach where she works as a lifeguard, Janelle is hit by a pickup truck and dies. So why is she still thinking, breathing, and feeling? Because of Ben, a "stoner" boy who Janelle barely notices until he is standing over her, whispering in her ear and laying his hands on her broken spine. He runs off as the ambulance arrives, and Janelle is convinced that he has brought her back to life.
The mystery of Ben is just one part of the puzzle for Janelle. The man who hit her was covered in radiation burns and, according to her father's files (he is an FBI agent), the man was dead before he struck Janelle. She secretly begins her own investigation to discover the truth of the accident, including the numbers on her father's files that seem to be a countdown.
In the glut of paranormal and dystopian teen fiction, Unraveling is a refreshing change. Janelle is a fully-drawn character, a girl dealing with family issues as well as her own unexplained return from death. Fans of FBI dramas like The X-Files or young amateur investigators like Veronica Mars will enjoy undertaking this Unraveling.

Senate Rejects Amendment Banning Military Detention of US Citizens in War on Terror
The Senate today rejected an amendment that would have limited the U.S. military from indefinitely detaining American citizens – within the United States or abroad – who are suspected of aiding terrorist organizations. The vote was 37-61, falling largely along party lines with Democrats opposing and the GOP in support.
The White House and the president's top defense, national security and law enforcement staff all opposed the expansion of domestic detention authority by the military, saying it would complicate anti-terror operations.
President Obama has threatened to veto the defense appropriate bill with the detention language. It remains to be seen if he will now do so.
In remarks on the Senate floor before the vote, Sen. Mark Udall, D-CO, explained why the bill's proposed language was a dramatic new expansion of military police powers that could deprive citizens of constitutional rights such as the right to be tried and convicted in an American court of law.
"The provisions authorize the indefinite military detention of American citizens who are suspected of involvement in terrorism, even those captured here in our own country, in the United States… These provisions could well represent a threat to our constitutional liberties," Udall said. "What is not clear is what we do with someone arrested in his home because of suspected terrorist ties. These detainee provisions would authorize that person's indefinite detention but it misses a critical point. How do we know that a citizen has committed these crimes unless they are tried and convicted? Do we really want to open the door to domestic military police powers and possibly deny U.S. citizens their due process rights?"
However, supporters of the bill, including Sen. Carl Levin, D-MI, who sits on the committee that drafted it, said the Supreme Court already has authorized the military to indefinitely detain citizens within the United States to combat terrorism.
"The Supreme Court has ruled that citizens can be held," Levin said moments before the vote on the Udall amendment. "We can and must deal with a Al Queda threat… The administration helped to draft almost all of this bill… This amendment would strike provisions that the administration helped to draft."
Other opponents of the bill's language to expans the military's power to detain US citizens included the American Civil Liberties Union, American Bar Association, American Legion and International Red Cross.

Ann Taylor loft on Clematis in West Palm closes its doors
- 7:02 pm Friday, January 8th, 2010 by Allison Ross
Ann Taylor Loft has closed its Clematis Street location in downtown West Palm Beach.
The closure was part of 117 planned store closures that Ann Taylor Stores Corp. announced at the beginning of 2008, according to a spokeswoman for the West Palm Beach Downtown Development Authority.
Jonathan Satter, a principal with WGCompass, said the store went dark between Christmas and the new year.
He said that Ann Taylor still has a lease for the space, and that the closure of the store has put them in violation of the lease. He said the landlord is evaluating its options.

"Muck Monster" materializes on downtown WPB menus
- 4:32 pm Friday, September 25th, 2009 by Allison Ross
The muck monster is slowly taking over.
After first being "spotted" in the Lake Worth lagoon, the mysterious muck monster has vaulted to fame, appearing on David Letterman's "Top Ten" segment and netting the Palm Beach County Convention and Visitors Bureau Web site millions of hits.
It was recently declared an official resident of West Palm Beach.
And now it's taking over the menus of downtown eateries on Clematis.
— Grease Burger Bar (213 Clematis St.) is offering a Muck Burger, which is a 10 oz. burger filled with homemade guacamole and pico de gallo.
Says executive chef Jason Fallmann, "The guacamole looks like something green, mysterious dark and earthy, but is full of flavor and intrigue, so we thought this works for paying tribute to the muck monster."
— Pistache (101 N. Clematis St.) has added a Muck Monster Martini to its menu. Sascha, the maitre d', says the martini is "a tribute to the famous monster. It's muddy, murky, with enough caffeine to keep you up and have a chance to catch a glimpse of the Intracoastal creature." It contains Van Gogh espresso vodka, Bailey's, cocoa liqueur and a touch of mint.
— Pizza Girls (114 Clematis St.) now has Muck Monster Pizza, complete with [More]
New window decor for vacant WPB downtown spaces; casual seafood restaurant in the works
- 3:48 pm Friday, February 27th, 2009 by Allison Ross
I had lunch at Clematis Social yesterday with Melissa Wohlust, the executive director of West Palm Beach's Downtown Development Authority.
As we walked along Olive Avenue after lunch, I got to ask her a question I've been wondering for a while: what's up with those weird window displays in some of the vacant buildings downtown?
I was speaking specifically about a window display at 115 S. Olive Ave., which features a straw hat hanging on a wall above a champagne bottle and two glasses, but there are a number of other strange or unfinished-looking displays along the street.

Good coverage. Recommend if looking for a High end concealer
I tried this recently for a tattoo. It didn't cover so I decided to try it for dark circles. I am really impressed with the result. Like others here, I agree it is a great consistency for under the eye. It does have a nice finish. I put it on one day when I didn't have to go out to see how it changed over the course of a long day. At the end of the night I was wowed at how lifted my face looked. It seems to work for my dark circles by erasing them. Maybe I'm easily impressed because I just wasn't aware of how bad I really looked. It did not oxidize or change color. It did not get darker or lighter and stayed true to tone. It still looked just applied 12 hours later. I used it alone and did not set it with anything. I imagine under powder or over moisturizer it would stun. Will be repurchasing : )
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I was disappointed. Coverage sucks if you're looking for maximum coverage. It's a shame because the shade "medium" matches my skin perfectly.this can be built up for medium-full coverage, but I feel like that's wasting a lot of product. Luckily, I got this on sale. Glad I didn't pay full price!!!
This isn't the best concealer out there, but its the best of the ones that I've tried. I like it because it will completely cover up my dark post-acne scars with the help of foundation and it doesn't break me out. I usually apply this under my foundation (Revlon Colorstay) and you can't see how horrid my skin really is. It stays put all day and doesn't make me oily.
It does the job and I do plan to repurchase a backup for when I run out.
I wasn't expecting a lot from this, but the more I use it the more I like it. Actually, I've been using this everyday for almost a year now, to cover dark acne marks and just random discoloration. Sometimes I just get really patchy spots and I end up spreading this out on a big chunk of my face, like a foundation!
It doesn't seem like anything special at first, but it's one of the few concealers that have not broken me out (Vichy Normaderm, I'm looking at you...) even when you wear it everyday. Also, it has decent staying power, though it wipes off pretty easily and can melt off at the end of the day. However, my face does get rather oily. Also, it doesn't oxidize, which is always a plus for me.
It's rather liquidy, but the tube lasts forever. I am just getting to the end of this tube and it has been about a year.
Overall, if I find that I get to the end of a tube of something and am perfectly happy with it, then I know I have something good. Have repurchased.
I have a tattoo on my wrist that I was interested in covering up sometimes, so I bought this. If that's what you intend to use this for, don't bother. However, I have used it frequently since then as a normal facial concealer, for which it works great. I have no blending problems with it and it provides pretty good (medium/full) coverage. It stays on very well and will last the entire day with no problems. It doesn't clog my pores or worsen a breakout if I have one. This little package has lasted me forever. You only need the smallest amount of it for ample coverage. I would definitely recommend it to use for blemishes or red areas on your face, but don't bother with it if you want to use it to cover tattoos.
I used to wear this concealer thinking it was legit.. I was so wrong. My aunt took a picture of me and you could tell I was wearing concealer. I was so embarrassed. NEVER AGAIN !
This is a good concealer, definitely not great. The coverage is medium to full, I don't think it's as full coverage as they make it out to be. It goes on smooth and is blendable and dries to a matte/velvet finish. I like it but still unsure if I'd repurchase.
Really not impressed by this at all. I have heard decent things about this line, but, unfortunately, the concealer did very little to conceal a tat on by upper, lower arm. I REALLY hate to recommend dermablend, but I'm going to in this case.
I was in Sephora, randomly looking at thick, full coverage concealers. I usually use organic, mostly natural, or minimal ingredient concealers and foundations. But seeing as how I use organic skin care, I've started to say "Screw it" about the makeup, and as long as it doesn't have petroleum, which my skin hates, I'll try it.
I grabbed Light 16 and tested it on my hand, and it blended perfectly. For some reason, the description claimed there were pink tones, but I didn't see any pink - and I am fair with neutral to slight yellow undertones. I've bought pricier concealers that had far less volume, so I wasn't worried about the price. This is over half an ounce and extremely full coverage!
I don't have any tattoos. But I do have plenty of scars, blemishes, dark undereye circles, redness, etc. I applied this concealer all over my moisturized face, and then walked around in various lighting with a mirror. And every time, I kept thinking, "Is this magic? Is Kat a witch? Because this is amazing. Where are my blemishes? Where is my redness? Heck, where did my pores go?" The shade was so very perfect, almost exactly like my MAC Studio Sculpt Foundation in NC15 or my Urban Decay Naked Skin Foundation in Shade 2.0 or my It Cosmetics Concealer in Light. My skin was smooth, soft, and honestly without flaws. I was floored. To be honest, I only knew who Kat Von D was from commercials for her tattoo show on TV, and occasionally from magazines. But I figured she would know what she was doing, creating makeup to cover tattoos.
Sooo... yeah. I. Love. This. Concealer. I might love it forever, I don't know. But it is right up there with It Cosmetics Bye Bye Concealer, which was created by cosmetic surgeons and dermatologists! Score one for the tattoo artist, then.

Westside voters said no to annexation Tuesday. Of 109 votes cast in two precincts, six voted yes and 103 voted no. For the referendum for Sunday package sales of alcohol, 298 Hinesville voters cast their votes, with 190 voting for the referendum and 108 voting no.
Hinesville's special-election referendums were reported in the Courier several times since July when the city held its annual workshop. At that time, several city councilmen said they supported the alcohol referendum because they had received so many requests from residents and business owners.
City Manager Billy Edwards said passing the referendum wouldn't automatically make alcohol package sales on Sunday legal in Hinesville. The city council first has to agree to write and pass a new city ordinance to govern alcohol sales. The consensus among council members at the workshop in July when the referendum was proposed was that they'd approve an ordinance governing Sunday sales of package alcohol.
Voter turnout was light for Tuesday's elections in Hinesville and Midway. By 1:30 p.m., Carolyn Lovins, poll manager for Hinesville's Referendum No. 2 (annexation of the city's west side), said voting had been slow since the polls opened at 7 a.m.
"It's been very slow all day," Lovins said. "We've seen 19 people so far. I'm not sure, but I don't think it was publicized enough. We have two areas we're dealing with — one near Gum Branch and one near Walthourville. We haven't had anyone from the Walthourville side all day."
A half hour later, Lovins said four more voters had come in.
Turnout for Hinesville's Referendum No. 1, Sunday sales of package alcohol, was slightly better. Poll manager LaFayne H. May, however, thought turnout still was light. By 1:45 p.m., they had seen 94 voters.
"It picked up a little during and right after lunch," May said. "Maybe it'll pick up again this afternoon as people get off work."
May, who said she's worked with the board of elections more years than she can remember, is retired from the Liberty County School System, where she taught second and third grade, then served as a principal.
"We've only had two people we've had to turn away," poll worker Retha Standard said. "I think a lot of it is because it wasn't advertised enough."

This is certainly not the first time that developers of all types of apps have faced sometimes confusing changes in rules, or their interpretation. It's a risk we all run in basing parts of our businesses on Apple. Here at Unity, we are working hard on getting good information, and working to understand whether – or how – the new changes could affect the developer community and others.On April 14, Helgason added:
Unity learned of these changes with the rest of you just last Thursday and today, there remains a great deal of uncertainty about these changes being final and what we may need to do to comply. We're meeting with Apple next week to discuss the matter, and our engineers have been discussing possible technical solutions as well...Though any uncertainly about Unity's future on this platform is unpleasant, our feeling is that we'll be okay.Adobe's decision to focus on Android is far more significant for the future of mobile content delivery, but it's Unity's situation that's more troubling. Apple, after all, has made no secret of its dislike for Flash—but if you look at Unity's upcoming Unity 3 engine, or read over company blog posts, it's very clear that iPlatform support was high on the developer's list of priorities. As recently as March 9, Helgason wrote that Unity would add support for the iPad and was currently engaged in porting core assets to the iPhone. This is the sort of enthusiastic developer you'd think Apple might warn before yanking out the rug.

As I had commented on the iPhone 4G article I see no point of releasing a 4G phone when your only partner will be the last cellular provider to the market. Then making developers have difficulties porting to your device, then of course the great statement if your looking for pron get an Android.
Then you consider that while the iPhone may have had the largest sales percentage of a commercial cellular device to aforesaid market things like this are heard. In many cases it reminds me of a pretty ancient time in Apples history when many of there statements were the same regarding personal computer's, but directed at IBM and the PC brethren (clone makers of the IBM platform).
In this scenario though Google would take the place of IBM, with just as it was then M$ playing second fiddle to them. In this case there are more players in the market than in that case. It looks like an almost direct comparison though. Not only did Apple (run by Steve Job's no less) do the exact same thing and almost go out of business. Mister Job's was also at that time told his services were no longer necessary (and he went and started or directed PowerPC).
The iPhone "4G" everyone is talking about is not using a 4G cell network (LTE) - that one won't be out until sometime next year at the earliest. People just started calling it the 4G because it's the 4th iPhone. The rumored name is iPhone HD (although I'm even less of a fan of that one. Of course, Apple could really get on my nerves and call it the iPhone Xtreme. :(
I'll take iPhone HD provided it comes with a scaled HD display. Calling it an iPhone 4G would invite a lot of confusion when actual 4G/LTE phones start using the moniker.
May be its the beginning of the death of the iPhone , thanks to more and more andriod powered options including those amazing looking phones from DELL. I think Apple is pushing the envelope little too much here.
Wonderful move, Apple. Now you've just made Flash support a selling feature exclusive to android every other tablet PC.
Hey, it's not like very many people play FarmVille or Cafe World, right? Oh wait, you're boned.
I'm wondering if Apple implodes. Oh, nice warm feeling in my belly with that thought.
Well it just seems that Mr Jobs always get's that higher than thou thing going on in his head. For some reason this also (from past evidence with both Apple and PowerPC) comes at just the right moment. Then he starts making brash statements about there superiority, and peoples levels of intelligence (specifically those who use there equipment), and therefore knocks them down again.
I still say the only reason Microsoft is where it is at least to a very great amount is due to this same thing. This is also not to mention Apple itself and everything else. I remember and will readily admit back in the day Apple (IE: Apple II,IIE) had the IBM PC beaten hands down. Yes there were many players in that, but basically brash thought, events, and statements by Mr. Job's played a very large part in it, not to mention decisions relating to his company.
Back when they were doing the II and IIE they still had the WAZ! Like I have said before he was the really driving force behind Apple. Jobs is just a glorified spokesman (srcsm). This type of behaviour might also be reminiscent of the reason Jobs got fired in the first place. He is a very good opportunist who happens to be at the right places at the right time.
They probably really fired him because he was so pretentious and egotistical back then, that he didn't want porn on the Macintosh when things were just getting started. I'm sure he feels just as entitled as Tiger did, yet instead of women he is going after peoples lives. That is also probably the reason behind them not being able to come to any kind of discussions with Adobe. Kinda ridiculous since Adobe is probably the biggest market for Apple computers.
Imagine if Adobe said OK, well we are no longer going to allow CS5 and other Adobe products to be supported on Apples!

Storey Gallery is the name of an organisation, not of a venue. We were based in the Storey Institute for 22 years, but we have moved out and are no longer running exhibitions in the gallery space. Events now taking place there are not organised by Storey Gallery.
We have shifted our focus to concentrate on projects in public spaces. To reflect this change in activity, we are now operating as StoreyG2.
Our first project is about landownership, focussed on a site on the edge of Lancaster known as Freeman's Wood. More details
We are currently seeking restoration of The Tasting Garden by Mark Dion. Information and link to petition here

Amantadine is a putative dopaminergic compound known to be
therapeutically effective in idiopathic and postencephalitic Parkinson's
disease. In a double-blind placebo-controlled crossover study of 39
psychiatric inpatients, amantadine and trihexyphenidyl were equally
effective in treating drug-induced parkinsonism, and amantadine produced
fewer and less severe side effects. The authors suggest that amantadine is
an effective alternative to atropine-like agents, with fewer implications
for long-term risk of tardive dyskinesia.

Measurement and Perception of Quality in Sound Systems
It is possible to measure the subjective quality of a sound system by straightforward objective techniques, but not those commonly used for this purpose. The reasons for this discrepancy will be revealed through an analysis of the primary subjective parameters and various means for measuring them. A set of measurement requirements will be developed, and specific techniques suggested.

Topics: Delivery of Care, Medicaid, States
Mar 22, 2011
Today's news about state budget deliberations includes reports from Florida, Connecticut, Minnesota, Washington and Maryland.
Health News Florida: $1B In Cuts In Senate HHS Budget When Sen. Joe Negron released a proposal Monday to cut at least $1 billion from health- and human-services programs, it was a first step in what likely will be a contentious budget process. The proposal immediately drew criticism for deep cuts to hospital funding, mental-health services and the Medically Needy program. And Tuesday, Negron's House counterpart will release a budget proposal that will differ on key issues. ... House Health Care Appropriations Chairman Matt Hudson, R-Naples, would not disclose details of his budget proposal in advance of releasing it Tuesday (Saunders, 3/22).
The Connecticut Mirror: In Hartford, Malloy Pressed To Tax The Wealthy And Expand Health Care Those who spoke out on the state budget Monday in one of Connecticut's poorest cities ... pressed Gov. Dannel P. Malloy to seek more in taxes from the state's wealthiest citizens and corporations. The crowd ... also included a half-dozen citizens who pushed for universal health care through the SustiNet model — a common theme at all eight regional budget hearings to date. ... Much of Monday's hearing also centered on the SustiNet health care model, a proposed state-backed health care plan. Malloy has said he wants to hold off implementation of the plan while the state's budget problems are being resolved (Phaneuf, 3/21).
Minnesota Public Radio: Dems Question GOP Numbers On Human Services Cuts Republicans in the House are proposing massive cuts to health and human services programs, to help erase the state's projected $5 billion budget deficit. ... The bill calls for removing 7,200 people from the MinnesotaCare health insurance program. It also would save $300 million by cutting payments to HMOs and doctors that provide the least efficient care. It would save another $300 million by asking the federal government to change how the state delivers Medicaid services to the poor, the elderly and the disabled. Democrats say the math doesn't add up (Scheck, 3/21).
The New York Times: A Panel Decides Washington State's Health Care CostsThe health care board was in session, and Deryk Lamb was pleading for them to continue paying for the spinal injections he receives to dull the pain from a workplace injury. ... Mr. Lamb was testifying on Friday before Washington State's Health Technology Assessment committee. The committee has authority under state law to determine which medical devices and procedures Washington will cover for state employees, Medicaid patients and injured workers, about 750,000 people in all (Pollack, 3/21).
The Washington Post: Leggett, Montgomery County Unions Spar Over Pension CostsMontgomery County's pension and retiree health accounts are facing a long-term shortfall of more than $4.8 billion, and officials repeatedly have pulled back from difficult decisions needed to close the gap (Laris, 3/21).
