If you haven't satiated your thirst for all things Capitol, it's time to gather 'round because we've got exclusive interviews with all of the most fashionable fellows involved in this year's Games. From Caesar Flickerman's fabulous fashion tips (think alabaster pocket squares!) to what Seneca Crane does to keep his skin Games-ready (that luscious salt scrub sounds divine!). To see what makes the gentleman of the Games tick, read on!
Signature Look: Most of our moded men have one signature item that sets them a part from all Capitol imitators, and Seneca is no exception. His heavenly hirsuteness culminates in a superbly sculpted beard, the envy of stylish men everywhere.
Favorite Trend: "While I love the flourish of a polished accessory, there's a reason for the saying, 'Clothes make the man.' I like to think that my sartorial sense conveys the same passion and creativity I'm bringing to the Games this year - so consider my wardrobe an exclusive preview of what you'll see in the Arena!"
Best Dressed Woman: "I don't think it will come as a surprise that Effie Trinket has wowed the Capitol and beyond with her baroque-chic aesthetic - from her powder-pale face to her gilded heels, she epitomizes what our glorious city is all about."
Prep: Our newest Head Gamemaker is unmitigatedly devoted to the art of gourmet skincare, and tells us, "If you've never had a diamond salt scrub crafted from pure ground District 4 sea salt and District 1 gems, you haven't lived."
What to Expect: While Seneca absolutely refuses to share a shred of detail regarding the challenges of the 74th Annual Hunger Games, he cheekily hints that he has some fun things in store. "None of the Tributes should ever feel too comfortable," he says with a smile.
Style Tips: "Grooming is integral in making an impression - my beard isn't just decoration, it tells people who I am before I even enter the room. President Snow has his mane of white hair, Claudius has his teased coif - what do you want your hair to say?"
Hot for Next Year: Seneca is a huge fan of fur-soled moccasins around the house - and he thinks they'll soon make the jump to the streets. "What could be more luxurious than walking on tangerine-tinted ocelot fur 24/7?" he asks.
Inspiration: "From the opulent jewels of District 1 to the inky smoke of District 12, I take a little something from all of Panem to create my signature style - though most of my ideas come from right here in our Capitol, where the fashion volume is turned all the way up!"
Signature Look: Flickerman's known to completely change his look every year, right down to the eyebrow tint. For the 74th Hunger Games, he has been eschewing last year's crimson hue for a softer powder blue — surely set to the Tributes at ease during their interviews.
Every Capitol Man should own: "A pristine, alabaster pocket square woven from genuine White Caper butterfly silk. No matter what color you're wearing or what tint your skin is dyed, it will radiate a simple glow, sure to complement every outfit."
Best-Dressed Citizen: "Can I vote for myself?" he laughs. "Just kidding! I'd have say it's a tie between the terribly interesting simplicity of Cinna and the classic severity of President Snow. When is a lapel rose not in style?
Worst Fashion Memory: "Do you remember the 60th Hunger Games? The one year I didn't wear my signature midnight blue suit? Back then draped equine silk was all the rage - I looked like I was wearing pajamas! Never again!"
Fashion Pet Peeve: While Flickerman is welcoming of most trends, the one thing that truly disappoints him are those who don't try. "I just think there can be so much beauty in the world," he sighs. "Why not express it on the outside?"
Favorite Tribute: "You know I can't answer that," he smiled coyly. "I will say that this year's competition has been truly illuminating."
Catch Phrase: "May the odds be ever in your favor - people quote it to me on the street all the time. Darlings, I'm not the one in the arena! But I appreciate how enthusiastic they are about my role in the Games."
Personal Style: Claudius considers himself the Capitol's very own Beau Brummel - a verified dandy. "Tall heels and taller hair is what I always say," he chuckles.
Worst Dressed: "Not even a question! Those outlandish get-ups of Haymitch Abernathy! I mean, who taught that man to tie a cravat?!"
Voice Care: Claudius swears by his own concoction: a veritable brew of honey, green tea and a pinch of powdered rhinoceros horn, harvested with silk gloves from one of the rarest creatures of District 10. "It does wonders to create that booming tenor you know and love," he swears.
Designer to Watch For: Though he admires new star Cinna's creations, Claudius defers to his personal Stylist - whom he refuses to name. "I can't have all of the Capitol clamoring for him or I'd never get my gold-flecked, tessellated blazer in time for the Games!"
Define the Capitol's Style: "I really don't know much about the dress sense of the Districts, but the Capitol style is all about an eclectic, adventurous spirit mixed with a healthy dose of madcap spunk, finished up with enough sparkle and color to put the entire rainbow out of business! Does that answer your question?"
Your Coiffure: Claudius is known across the furthest reaches of Panem for his signature hair - angelic blond curls softly teased into a cotton candy confection. "I'll never tell," he winks, in response to pleas for how he does it. "I've given up enough secrets today!"

The government shutdown impacted people across the nation directly while others in more subtle ways.For Staff Sgt. Randy Branum, it meant he would not get to return from a year-long unaccompanied tour in Korea on schedule.Wife Amanda and their two children – son Kale, 7, and daughter Kiley, 3 – had been prepared to meet Branum at the airport on Thurs., Oct. 17, but earlier that week she heard her husband would not return then because of the shutdown."We were very disappointed," Amanda said.Branum said he took the news more easily since he had to be used to accepting schedule changes in the Army, even if he didn't appreciate it."I wasn't happy about it," Branum said.But after a few days delay and about 50 hours of travel from Korea, Branum made it back home to Brock on Oct. 21.While Amanda took Kale to school as normal at Brock Elementary, Branum's father picked him up at the airport. Upon reaching home, Branum surprised his young daughter."She was so excited," Amanda said.They then went to the school to surprise Kale, who also had no idea when his father would come home.The faculty called an assembly for the entire school and then chose three children – one of them Kale – as volunteers to welcome a surprise guest. But while they watched one door, Branum entered through a different door and surprised his son from behind.While students and teachers cheered and then sang God Bless America, Kale embraced his father."I'm so happy my dad got to come home," Kale later said.Kale said he was surprised by his father's arrival although he had suspected his mother was keeping a secret from him. Now he understood why his mother asked him to wear his Army shirt to school that day, Kale said."It feels good," Branum said of finally being home. "It's good seeing my kids and my wife."Branum left on his third tour October of 2012, but had three weeks back with his family in June.His first two tours as part of communications were in Iraq. He will not have to leave again for at least three years.

We've finally started really making progress on the new nursery. I don't think I've ever shared a single picture of this room, because it was just our spare 3rd bedroom. We knew that it would most likely remain a spare room for junk and the occasional family guests, unless we unexpectedly got pregnant. Basically, with all the other crazy projects we've had on the docket for this house, this spare room was rock-bottom on the priority list. Except that all the sudden it got skyrocketed to the top! Here are a couple before photos though:
Definitely a blank slate.
I shared a little peak of one corner of the room a few weeks ago where you could see the new pink paint job. Here's that photo again to refresh your memory:
Well, turns out that innocent little pink paint caused quite the chain reaction. You see when we painted the walls pink, suddenly the ceiling paint looked awful. It looked dirty and dingy, and a really unappealing greige color. No problem, we just took our happy selves to Lowe's and picked up a can of the Olympic no VOC ceiling paint and came home and painted the ceiling. Problem solved, right?
I forgot to take a picture before we painted the ceiling, but in this pic you can see the dingy line that's the old ceiling color. yikes!
Wrong. The walls looked great. The ceiling looked great, but the trim then looked like this:
More dingy beige.
Thankfully after a coat of Kilz Premium (it's no VOC) and a coat of the leftover paint we used on the living room ceiling, the trim is looking a LOT better!
Now we just need to cover up that pesky line where you can see the old ceiling color with some crown moulding! We actually got the crown last Friday night, and had planned to install it last weekend, but my car decided it wanted to act up, so car repairs kind of took precedence. The trim is still hanging out in the sunroom safely away from the toddler, ready to be painted and installed this weekend. ;)
While husband has been busy painting the room, I've been working on a few sewing projects. The only one I have complete is a little blanket I made from scraps for another project I hope to finish soon:
But I still have a BIG long list of sewing projects that need to be completed, including making a bed skirt from these three pink fabrics:
In the meantime, this little corner is kind of my sanity and preview of things to come:
It's still not finished or perfect, (those curtains are the old ones from H's room and will be replaced, more stuff will be on the walls, add in some pillows, etc.), but I've loved that "For Like Ever" poster for years, and I love seeing it hanging in there. Even at 9 months pregnant, I still can't believe we're having another baby or that we're having a baby girl!
Hope you all have an amazing weekend!

Tony King
Cincinnati, OH
Tony is the best. Not only does he do careful and beautiful work, but he is a kind and funny person who puts a stressed-out bride (and mother of the bride, as needed) at ease. There is no reason to go anywhere else.

Tony King is amazing! If you are lucky enough to get in before he is booked do it!! My dress looked absolutely amazing- he attached a custom trim for me that I found in NYC and it looked like it was part of the dress all along- super original! He does alterations on all types of couture gowns but always made me feel wonderful about my Maggie Sottero! Seriously I can't say enough great things- thank you Tony!

Timothy did an excellent job. Very artistic eye and very professional. I trusted him with my dress and would definitely use him in the future for bridesmaid dresses etc.

I loved Tony! He did a wonderful job and I enjoyed going to my fittings. I personally asked about his other dresses. He came highly recommened to me and in turn I highly recommend him to you.

DO NOT USE him!!! All he will do while fitting you, is brag about the other, more expensive gowns he is working on! I lost about 5 pounds from when I originally met and got measured with him, and he REFUSED to take my dress in anymore! He told me I needed to eat more!! I ended up having to find another seamstress (which THANK GOD I did) the week of my wedding to have it fixed! WHAT a waste of money he is!!

Well after reading all of your comments about Tony, I was excited to meet with him. I don't know anything about altering a wedding gown, so this is a new and intimidating time for me! I also was recommeded to Tony via a wedding shop. I called and made an appointment with him to do a quote on what he would need to do to my gown and what it would cost.
The appointment was decided but then he started telling me how I would need to bring half the deposit and all this stuff to pay him. I asked again if this could be a quote just to see what he would charge me. Well then he said "I do that over the phone. What do you need done to the gown?" Last time I checked, I wasn't a seamtress and I had no idea what to tell him about what needed done. Yes, I had a general idea, but how in the world was I to know if there was something else that needed to be done that he couldn't see since he wasn't looking at my gown on me?!
So I was disappointed in that and did not keep the appointment. I have been able to meet with other seamstresses for FREE in order for them to see the dress on me and give me a ballpark quote and not do it over the phone.

Tony is FABULOUS. I wouldn't have trusted anyone else in Cincinnati with my Pnina. His prices were reasonable, his work was fantastic,and his personality was great. :)
My only problem (and this is probably my fault for waiting to so long to contact him) was that I was playing phone tag with him the week before my wedding - which was a bit nervewracking.

I found Tony on a recommendation from a dress shop in Cincinnati. I purchased a high end gown (an all lace sheath Monique Lhuillier with key hole back) that I knew would be difficult to alter and was nervous about finding someone to do alterations in Ohio. Tony put me at ease right away. He was very confident and knew exactly what needed to be done to the dress to make it fit right (things I didn't even notice, apparently one of my shoulders is higher than the other, etc). I went in for 3 fittings for my dress, and it was always so nice/fun to go. Tony is hilarious and very peasant to work with.
My mom also took her outfit to him for alterations, and she was not very confident about it before going. Tony made her feel great about it and told her what a good choice it was. (I believe he said it was what Jackie O would have worn). He made it fit her very well and I would have thought it would have been on the difficult side (beaded top and charmeuse skirt).
Our flower girl lives in Wisconsin but her dress needed major alterations. Tony told her mom how to pin it on her and was able to make it fit without ever having her come into his shop.
All these alterations were EXTREMELY reasonably priced. I have heard alterations can cost $400 or $500 of dollars easily, especially at bridal dress shops. The alterations Tony did for my dress were only $110, my mom's outfit was maybe $50 and the flower girls dress was only $25 or so. I thought it was a steal for such great service.
Bottom line, Tony is great at what he does, will put you at ease, is reasonably priced, and you will love being 'one of his girls.'

I called Tony King in a PANIC! Pat's Alterations refused to correct my dress one week before I was due to move out of state, wedding soon to follow.
Yes, getting to his loft was tricky. My mother and I climbed half way up a rickety staircase after seeing how shabby the elevator was! The only thing that kept me climbing those deathly stairs was my too-large wedding gown that I clutched closely to me!
Upon arrival, Tony's loft was great! He was patient, experienced! I believe he said he got his start in the Sear's Tower 25-ish years ago! He had my gown ready for me in time! I thought his pricing to be VERY reasonable!
WARNING BRIDES: Don't waste your money or time at Pat's Alterations!

Tony did alterations for my dress, my 4 sisters' bridesmaids dresses and my mom's dress, and we were really happy with his work. It was on the pricey side, but we felt like it was worth it for the individual attention that he paid us, as well as the fact that he accommodated us into his schedule for a variety of last-minute appointments. You can tell he takes a lot of pride in his work and that he really wants each person to look their very best. He also has a lot of other creative ideas for weddings!
More recently, he altered my dress for my sister's wedding, which was a more difficult task, since I'm pregnant. He pinned the dress and everything but waited until the week of the wedding to actually make any changes, which scared me at first. It turned out for the best though - in the 2 weeks since I'd seen him, my belly had grown so much that he had to drop 4 inches at the hem - good thing he hadn't sewn it yet. He said he'd had to re-make too many dresses for pregnant bridesmaids. It's his experiences like this that give me great confidence in Tony.

Tony made my wedding dress after a sketch. It came out great and at a good price (he even considered that I was on a student budget at that time - tx). He was flexible adjusting along the way to my suggestions. I highly recommend him.

Retailers scramble to boost holiday shopping excitement as experts predict weak shopping season
Consumers concerned about another recession
INDIANAPOLIS - The country's largest retailer Wal-Mart has unveiled its Black Friday deals that begin Thanksgiving Day.
Some local experts say the early timing is an attempt to counter predictions of a weak shopping season.
Dr. Rachel Smith, an associate professor of finance at University of Indianapolis, said she expects to see a small 4.1 percent increase in holiday sales this year from last, which is more sluggish than retailers might want.
"Retailers are going to be doing a lot more cost cutting," Smith said. "I think it's continued concern about the future of the economy. We have a lot of uncertainty still that's out there."
Other local experts agree.
Shoppers are generally concerned this season with thoughts of another recession, possible tax increases and national worries about the country running off a looming fiscal cliff.
"That spells a fairly weak holiday season relative to what it should be if we were in an environment of growing incomes," said Ball State University economist Michael Hicks.
One hope for retailers could be this year's extended holiday shopping season.
Black Friday comes early on Nov. 23, and the good sales could continue through much of the holiday shopping season.
"They are going to try to spread it out more, rather than just making it one central time," Smith said.
Local experts also expect to see an effort among retailers to match in-store deals with those offered online.

Famed collaborators David Almond and Dave McKean once again unite their respective authorial and illustrative talents to bring to life a haunting and subtle creation fable in Mouse Bird Snake Wolf. Harry, Sue and Little Ben live in a wonderful world, much like our own. It is filled with the most marvelous places and creations that the gods could imagine. There are forests, rivers and mountains, elephants and camels, and yet stranger creatures like the zowet and the brant. It is a safe world and a calm one and the gods who fashioned it are well pleased with everything in it. In fact, the gods are so pleased with their creations that they have stopped making anything else. Instead now they alternately nap, have tea and cake and admire all that they have made.
As a result, this is also a world of curious gaps; empty spaces and unfinished endings that interrupt the landscape. Such gaps are all too easily filled by the imagination of curious children. Little Ben is the first to imagine something out of the nothing when he brings into the world a strange new creature: the mouse. Sue and Harry swiftly follow, creating yet more peculiar creatures. Soon it seems that the children's beautiful creations might rival the gods'...except some of them are also becoming a little, well, scary....
Gently, the story alternately examines both the children's and the gods' actions, hinting at the dangers of overconfident ambition and the foolishness of leaving work half-done. With undertones of myth and traditional just-so storytelling, Mouse Bird Snake Wolf will easily appeal to readers who enjoy children's fables. The sublime illustrations offer a thoroughly modern visual foil for the storyline, thereby rendering this a likely choice for graphic novels enthusiasts as well.
The underworld stinks! Ten year-old Hades is on a quest through the smelly underworld with his companions, Zeus and Poseidon; fighting Titans, dodging monsters and avoiding licks from a three-headed dragon dog. Hades seems to like it there, though. It smells great to him and the groan-inducing jokes of the ferryman, Captain Charon, crack him up. Hades and the Helm of Darkness, by Joan Holub and Suzanne Williams, is a lighthearted, fun read and a great introduction to the Greek myths. The third in the Heroes in Training series, Hades and the Helm of Darkness continues the saga of the Olympians' rise to power which began with Zeus and the Thunderbolt of Lightning and continued with Poseidon and the Sea of Fury. Following the fuzzy prophecies of the Oracle of Delphi, who, unfortunately, has foggy eyeglasses, the heroes in training must find and use their powers in order to save the world from the Titans. Next up in the series will be Hyperion and the Great Balls of Fire.
Holub and Williams also co-author the Goddess Girls series. These books send the Greek goddesses to an ancient middle school with Zeus as the principal. The classic myths are retold in a middle school setting complete with teenage drama and angst. Start with Athena the Brain. Twelve-year-old Athena finds out she is the daughter of Zeus and is summoned to Mount Olympus Academy, where she comes up against mean girl Medusa (and manipulates some mortals as a class assignment). The eleventh book in the series, Persephone the Daring, is due out in August. Fans of the Monster High and Dork Diaries series are likely to enjoy Goddess Girls.
From the imagination of Liesl Shurtliff comes a fractured fairytale without equal. Many are the authors who have drawn upon the fairy and folk tales of their youth to inspire new and unusual retellings. Perhaps because of our shared experience of the originals, these "fractured" fairytales have a way of resonating with readers, filling in gaps and answering the myriad questions left in the wake of so many beloved ̶ yet characteristically brief ̶ stories. In Rump: the True Story of Rumpelstiltskin, Shurtliff casts her discerning eye and powers of imagination over a most unlikely hero.
On The Mountain where he is born, your name is your destiny; as influential as the stars. When Rump is born early ̶ too early ̶ his mother has only enough strength left to whisper his name to him before dying. Though she strains to hear, his Gran can only make out "Rump" and so he is known. Though he has just marked his twelfth birthday, Rump hasn't grown an inch since he was eight years old. Life is not easy on The Mountain, especially for a diminutive boy whose name makes him the butt of more than a few jokes. Food rations are perennially scarce, and The Mountain's natural resource (gold!) seems scarcer still as time goes on. Yet when Rump chances on his mother's old spinning wheel he discovers an unexpected talent. Soon, Rump is spinning the finest strands of pure gold. However, magic comes at a price, and Rump's new talent has not gone unnoticed by the village's greediest inhabitant, the miller.
A series of increasingly tangled predicaments will lead Rump from his home on The Mountain all the way to The Kingdom, Yonder and Beyond. Alongside the trouble though, he'll discover friends, family and the truth behind his name and his destiny.
In Look Up: Bird-Watching in Your Own Backyard, Annette LeBlanc Cate uses witty text, hand-drawn lettering, and pleasant, approachable colored-pencil art to encourage readers to notice the birds that share our environment. The author/illustrator covers a bevy of concepts relating to our feathered friends, and describes how she became an avian enthusiast and the simple ways that anyone can become one, too. In a casual, friendly style, the author advises beginners to start with a simple list of the birds that they see in their own surroundings. She is also an advocate for sketching and journaling. Easy-to-follow tips for better bird-watching, including useful ideas such as looking in the margins of a line of sight, and searching at dawn and dusk, allows the novice to spot birds that may otherwise be missed.
Identifying birds is covered at length, but not in the same style as a general field guide (which she highly recommends using as well). Instead, common birds are separated by color palette, shape, detail, and song. Throughout the book, familiar birds are introduced, and each page builds upon the previous until more involved concepts such as habitat, migration and classification are touched upon. Cate also stresses the value of keeping a sketchbook and encourages those who don't believe they can draw to start with the basics and go from there. Even the endpapers are full of good information and funny quips. A useful bibliography and index, which also include bird commentary, completes the irreverent but highly informational package.
Before he was 'Babe', George Herman Ruth was a troubled boy growing up on the familiar streets of Baltimore. These formative years are documented by Matt Tavares in Becoming Babe Ruth, his richly illustrated and engaging homage to the "Sultan of Swat". Already uncontrollable at age seven, George was left at Saint Mary's Industrial School for Boys by his father. There George was forced to abide by the strict rules which were rigorously enforced. But, after all the chores and schoolwork were complete, Brother Matthias would let the boys play baseball. Under Brother Matthias' expert tutelage, George focused on fundamentals and perfected every aspect of his game. His hard work was rewarded when he was signed to a minor league contract with the Baltimore Orioles. It was here that George became Babe, and Tavares is careful to share the origin of the famous nickname with curious readers. From Baltimore, Ruth went to Boston and eventually ended up with the New York Yankees, with whom he had a long and storied career. Along the way, the Bambino achieved an unprecedented level of superstardom.
Tavaras does an outstanding job of outlining important moments in Babe's professional life, but also documents lesser known details of his life as a young boy in Baltimore. The realistic mixed-media illustrations bring Babe to life and readers get a real sense of his charm, his outsize personality, and his love of the game he played so well for so long. But even as Ruth became a household name, he never forgot where he came from. Tavares notes his repeated generosity and gratitude to St. Mary's and the men who shaped him. An author's note, statistics, and bibliography are appended and complete this uplifting story of the most famous baseball player in history and his connection to Charm City.
What would your dream house look like? If you're Andy and Terry, you live in The 13-Story Treehouse, a marvel of backyard architecture with limitless possibilities for fun. Besides the usual bedrooms, kitchen and bathrooms, it's got a game room, a theater, a bowling alley, a see-through swimming pool, a tank full of man-eating sharks, and for good measure, a secret underground laboratory. In other words, paradise. Penned by perennial favorite Andy Griffiths and liberally illustrated by his usual partner-in-laughs Terry Denton, this fast-paced slapstick book for middle graders marks the beginning of a hysterical new series.
The author and illustrator have made themselves the protagonists of the beyond-silly story. The action begins when Terry inexplicably paints the neighbor's cat with yellow paint and drops it over the edge of the deck. The feline sprouts wings and flies off, now transformed into a "catnary." Meanwhile, the pair has missed the deadline to send a new book to their publisher, Mr. Big Nose. How will they come up with something overnight, especially when Andy insists on beginning the story "Once UPOM a time"?
Middle grade readers, particularly boys, will find the combination of wacky plotlines and simple black and white cartoon drawings irresistible. Give The 13-Story Treehouse to fans of Dav Pilkey's Captain Underpants series and Dan Gutman's My Weird School First Chapter books.
Blue Balliett has created an unforgettable character in Early Pearl, the eleven-year-old heroine of Hold Fast. Early's life is happy despite a lack of money. Her parents, Dashiell and Summer, and her four-year-old brother Jubiliation form a tight-knit family that enjoys reading, words, and puzzles. Dash works as a shelver in the Chicago Public Library with a dream of one day becoming a librarian. Sum stays at home to take care of Jubie, but once he starts school, she wants to work with kids who need help. They all long for a home of their own someday, but until then are content in their cozy apartment on Chicago's South Side.
All that changes when Dash suddenly vanishes and the Pearl family is shattered. Forced to retreat to a shelter, Sum grows depressed, Jubie sick, and Early is anxious and determined to find out the truth about her father. Early becomes desperate to hold her family together and find her father. She realizes that he hasn't left without a trace, and with the help of her dad's former teacher, tracks down the patterns and rhythms of Dash's days prior to his disappearance.
Early is a wise and spunky young girl; Balliett infuses the story with the poetry and spirit of Langston Hughes, as evidenced by the book's title, which is from his poem "Dreams". This is also an interesting glimpse into life as a shelter kid and offers an honest look at homelessness. The mystery will keep readers engaged, especially with the public library at the center of an international crime ring. Enjoy getting to know this most special Pearl family, which is blissfully reunited despite great obstacles, thanks to the persistently clever Early who followed her heart and held fast to her dreams.
Blending engaging, energetic illustrations with an accessible plot and appealing characters, acclaimed cartoonist Michael Fry offers a refreshing new take on some timeless issues in middle school in The Odd Squad: Bully Bait. Nick has got to be THE shortest twelve-year old on the planet. Well, at least the shortest in Emily Dickinson Middle School. Being short isn't always bad...at least when the school bully Roy stuffs Nick in his locker, it's a roomy fit. But then being short isn't Nick's only problem.
Nick's mom and dad have split up. Roy regularly terrorizes him at school. He doesn't really fit in anywhere, not even with the Unsociables. Worst of all, Becky, his would-be girlfriend has begun hanging out with the abominable Roy! Not everything is rotten though, like Mr. Dupree, the seriously weird janitor who quotes Shakespeare and tells strange truths disguised as lies. Then there's his mom and Memaw who love him. Best of all, Nick has a cool virtual alter-ego, Max. Max gets to torment Roy through texts and is Becky's virtual BFF. Nick's school counselor, Dr. Daniels, has had enough of the bullying. She's recruited Nick and two other misfits, Molly and Karl to join the lamest club ever - Safety Patrol. Molly, the tallest girl in school, and Karl, the weirdest, aren't prime friend material as far as Nick is concerned. They have a common cause, though, and together the three devise a plan to stand up to Roy. In the process, Nick learns some surprising information about Roy – and about himself.
Fry takes on a potentially problematic combination of delicate issues in Bully Bait, including both physical and virtual bullying, "peer allergies", challenging family situations and more. What he delivers is a story that is humorous and light, without sacrificing realism or a powerful underlying message. Look for the second installment in The Odd Squad series in September.
In One Gorilla: A Counting Book, illustrator Anthony Browne takes the reader through a bevy of primates. A one-time Children's Laureate of the United Kingdom, Browne draws on his lifelong fascination with gorillas and apes of all sizes. Using his signature strokes and employing the technique of varying dry and wet brushes, each page becomes a lifelike, head-on portrait of the featured creatures. Generous white space keeps the focus on the intense, breathtaking images of monkeys, chimps, and orangutans, among others. Browne reminds us of our own relationship to this group of animals with an arresting self-portrait, followed by a double-paged spread of diverse humans: "All primates. All one family."
Two-time Caldecott medalist Chris Raschka takes a familiar childhood rite of passage and infuses it with his trademark watercolors in Everyone Can Learn to Ride a Bicycle. Raschka has said that when formulating ideas for his books, he is very influenced by events that took place in his own childhood. In this case, a young girl and her father first go to choose a bike. Then, she haltingly goes through the stages of becoming a proficient rider, helped along with words of encouragement. Readers are urged on by the fluid illustrations that mimic the forward energy of a bike in motion. A final parenthetical grace note after she has finally mastered the skill will bring a smile to every adult reader's face.
Pluto's Secret, an Icy World's Tale of Discovery by Margaret A. Weitekamp with David DeVorkin lets the cat out of the bag. Dancing around with its moon and other small worlds on the outer edges of the solar system, it watches as the people on Earth try to figure it out. Discovered in 1930 after years of searching, astronomers thought they had found the ninth planet around the sun. Pluto plays in its orbit, laughing at the astronomers. As more powerful telescopes are developed, scientists realize that Pluto is not only different than the other planets; it's also not alone in its orbit. In 2006, this discovery led astronomers to vote on a definition of a planet, something which had never been done before. Pluto's secret is revealed. It is not a planet, but the "first example of something new" --and it's not the only one. Scientists have discovered an entire band of icy worlds around the sun (called the Kuiper Belt), as well as around other stars. As technology evolves, so does our ability to learn more about the Universe.
This children's book, put out in association with the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, does an extraordinary job of piquing the reader's interest in the solar system. Children will enjoy learning that an 11-year-old girl suggested the name for Pluto. Coupled with Diane Kidd's charming illustrations, the story will entertain readers of all ages. Facts and photographs follow the story and gives those interested more resources. In 2006 NASA launched the New Horizons spacecraft to conduct a flyby study of Pluto and its moon, Charon. It's halfway there, and should reach Pluto in 2015. Follow its progress here!

"Superb sci-fi couched in the poem of the Iliad."
The book mixes futuristic sci-fi with the events that occurred in Homer's poem The Iliad. It does so in such an excellent manner as to make me want to read/study the Iliad again! This audio book also seems to take pieces from Dan Simmon's other excellent works in the Hyperion Cantos. I found myself thinking back to Hyperion many times while listening to this book.
The narrator is solid as well imparting the perfect cynical tone to the main character.
"Rambling Road Trip"
Just as my review headline states, this books seemed to be more of a rambling road trip than any profound statement on how gods exist in our minds and our belief. Many times during the book I simply zoned out and had no idea where the story had gone or even what the current narrative was - probably similar to zoning out while traveling in a car over longs distances and not paying much attention to the what is around you - a road trip. The plot would have benefited greatly from more cohesion and a main story thread to keep the listener interested. While the narrators were quite talented, the story simply didn't provide me with much to care about.
I'm surprised at how high this book is rated. It makes me wonder if the 12000 words the author added into this edition would have been better left out.
"Non-stop thrill ride!"
A very exciting tale of one man's effort for survival while stranded on Mars. Absolutely brilliant. Funny, cynical, and rich with space technology/science. There were some points in the book where it just simply became too much to be believed, thus the less-than-five star rating, but overall a great, fun listen.
"Interesting, yet circular."
A very fascinating discussion by Stephen Hawking on his theory of time, black holes, relativity, etc. One of the few drawbacks is that his rational/reasoning begins to sound and become circular - which I suppose perfectly describes the theory of time and the universe - how it contracts/expands - unending.
"Half full/Half empty"
The first half of this book was very engrossing and captivating. The second half - not so much. The story works well when its about the main character: Vergil. You're interested in his plight and his fate. Once that is determined, the story meanders about to various other characters that I just couldn't really care about.
The narrator also does not speak clearly into the microphone at a few points in the book making you have to turn up the audio very high just to hear him. In his defense, this was recorded many, many years ago when audiobook recording was not at the best. The narrator does not have a vast range of voices either: alternating from gruff, gravely to a high-pitched attempt at female voices which just doesn't work.
An interesting premise and great first half of the book, but not one that I could recommend.
"Wow! Wow! Wow!"
This is easily one of the best audio books I have listened to in a long time. The story of a young 16 year old girl who is dying of cancer and yet finds joyous love in all the misery and heartache she has endured. Incredibly emotional. You will laugh out loud. You will cry.
The narrator is exquisite and perfect to bring about the voice and personality of Hazel. I cannot say enough great things about this book. Just get it and listen to it. Period.
An absolute must-listen. A truly inspiring story that has made me have a new love for running; and certainly convinced me that humans are "born to run". Everyone needs to listen to this book and then take its advice: running and eating healthy. I truly believe it would reduce the obesity and unhealthiness in the American population.
Very humorous at times, wonderful and interesting characters, a fantastic finish.
"Everyone wants this!"
Everyone wishes they could have done something over again in their life to correct a mistake or make the right choice, or even to see if another choice would have led down a better path in life. Ursula gets that ability in this excellent novel. Ursula is a young girl who gets to do life over and over again until she gets it exactly right. Of course, the ultimate point of the story is whether or not it's possible to get it exactly right or if you are doomed to infinite repetition.
Very powerful, very emotional.
Highly recommended!
"Disappointment after Ilium ;("
After listening to the excellent book of Ilium, my expectation were high for this sequel. Perhaps too high. The book drags on into meaningless detail. One wonders if an editor was too scared to tell the author what to cut out from the book. It also falters from a lack of a clear distict voice which was the main character in Ilium. Instead, it goes into multiple third-person perspectives to the point at which one starts to not care where the overall stroy is going. The only redeeming part of the book was the area that dealt with the Trojans, the Greeks, Achilles, Zeus, etc. The rest I could have fast forwarded through and not been any wiser as far as plot development.
I recommended the first book: Ilium. I'd recommend stopping there.
"Truly immersive horror!"
Excellent listen! Dan Simmons captures the essence and atmosphere of Calcutta expertly. A truly horrific story that seems more truth than fiction. The fate of a particular character seems pre-ordained simply that that character's inclusion into the story which is my only criticism of the plot.
The narrator is absolutely superb going from American Mid-West, American-New York, to Indian accents with ease.
A definite recommended listen.

Theatrical Design
Francisco Rizi was a painter of Italian descent who trained in the workshop of Vicente Carducho. In 1637 he began to work for King Philip IV of Spain, who appointed him the royal painter in 1656. His most productive period coincided with the reign of Philip, for whom he worked both on decorations of a mythological character for the Alcázar de Toledo and on the design and construction of theater sets from 1657 on. This drawing probably was made for a theatrical presentation at the Buen Retiro Palace, Madrid. It ...

It is considered the central document of the cult of the Virgin of Guadalupe, which is part of the fundamental identity of Mexicans. Luis Lasso de la Vega, its author, was the vicar of the shrine to the Virgin. The report may be based upon a ...

twilight in Montmartre,Paris
Firstly I am not sure what your point is with regards to Bavaria? Bavaria is not a country, also Adolf Hitler never invaded Bavaria, that is a big WTF right there, Bavaria was a state of Germany when Hitler came to power so there was obviously no need to "invade" it. The other WTF part is that Bavaria was/is not in East Germany and was never administered by Russians so how this all relates to BMW is a bit of a head scratcher.

Washington, DC (AP) -- Breaking a parliamentary roadblock, the Senate voted Wednesday to begin its first formal debate on the Iraq war since Democrats took control of Congress in January.
The 89-9 vote paved the way for consideration of a Democratic measure that calls for - but does not require - President Bush to pull U.S. combat troops out of Iraq by the end of March 2008. The vote came after many Republicans abandoned the tactic they had used twice earlier this year to prevent the Senate from considering legislation aimed at forcing an end to the war.
Despite the vote, most Republicans opposed the Democratic bill and it was expected to eventually fall short of the 60 votes it will need to pass. Even so, the debate would give Democrats a chance to put Republicans on record as opposing a timetable on the war at a time when most American voters oppose.
"This is the message the American people delivered to Congress on Nov. 7, 2006, and this is the message we must send to President Bush," said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., referring to an election day in which Democrats captured both chambers.
The Senate breakthrough came after Republicans abandoned demands for assurances that a debate on the war include consideration of various GOP proposals, including a resolution vowing to protect funding for troops. Fearful such a measure would undercut the anti-war message Democrats wanted, Senate Democrats had refused.

Should we watch Withnail & I (or something…I'm up for suggestions) next weekend?
Friday seemed to work for the Paper mask watch-along, but I know some people couldn't make it. So it's up for discussion as well.
It's just an idea, but I figure with a week to figure it out we could all work out something.
yessss let's do this! I'm in PDT (GMT-7) and Fridays/Saturdays are best for me.

In Vintage We Trust turns another year older today. We say four years young, others say four years strong. Thank you to anyone who has bought, liked, followed or conversed with us about vintage, we're all in this together.
The last time the Chargers played a playoff game in Cincinnati they almost froze to death, seriously! 32 years ago this week the Chargers and Bengals played in -38 Celsius weather, making it one of the coldest outdoor football games ever played. This game is commonly known as "The Freezer Bowl". Almost 2000 miles from sunny San Diego the Chargers fell to the Bengals 27-7. Esiason, Munoz and the rest of the black and orange would go on to lose to Montana and the upstart 49ers in the Super Bowl that year.
1. Vintage 40s WW2 German M-44 Dot Camouflage Mountain Snow Parka
The minute variations in camouflage coloration, pocket alignment, and stitch count can mean the world of difference between a reproduction and an original garment. Although vintage American militaria has been written about aggressively over the last 20 years, the same cannot be said about its European counterpart. When we sourced this German M-44 dot mountain snow parka, it took a lot of in depth research to figure out what exactly we had unearthed. With the German army constantly adjusting its combat plans and fighting in different climates, terrains, and topography; several different versions of their dot camouflage garments were created. This particular M-44 dot pattern was the last version manufactured before the end of the war. With only about 10 months of production to its credit, it is widely regarded as the "white whale" of European WW2 camouflage. Historically speaking, this jacket was worn during famous late war confrontations like the Battle of the Bulge. The jacket itself is quite a sight with its reversible herringbone twill, unique slant pocket detail, and a double sided waist belt. It was by far our most impressive vintage military garment of 2012.
The holidays are just around the corner; luckily the newly minted Annex Flea has you covered. Come join us this Sunday, December 8th at the Holiday Edition of the Annex Flea. You will find a great selection of local artists and designers selling furniture, house wares, jewelry, beauty products, food, and of course vintage clothing. We will be at the Centre For Social Innovation from 10am to 5pm. Show some support and shop local. Looking forward to seeing you all there!
The explosion of hand-drawn typography in today's marketplace has pushed several key artists to the forefront. One of those artists is Jon Contino, a native New Yorker who pays his bills designing hand-lettering and unique illustrations. In case he wasn't busy enough creating work for Nike, The Brooklyn Nets, and Alpha Industries, he is also the creative force behind CXXVI, a menswear line which draws inspiration from militaria, work wear, and pre-1960 American pop culture. CXXVI perfectly melds heritage, street wear, and premium soft goods into an aesthetically pleasing package. Like the city he calls home, Contino appears to never sleep with projects constantly on the go. His most recent capsule collection with Ebbets Field is gaining traction in the blogosphere. His series of single v printed sweats have all the characteristics of being both designed by a vintage aficionado and produced by a company that respects the lineage of clothing and sport in America.

2. Vintage 20s Carhartt Change Button Denim Railroad Chore Jacket
With over 120 years of history behind them, it's no secret that Carhartt is one of the most trusted names in the work wear industry. Founded in 1889 by Hamilton Carhartt, he set out to create durable, long lasting work wear apparel. His first garment was the bib overall which was created specifically for railroad workers, a first of its kind. Heavy duty fabrics, reinforced rivets, and durable thread have become the basis of Carhartt's work wear program for the last century. Carhartt's goal was to produce garments that would stand the test of time. This motto has proven true as brands like Ralph Lauren and Engineered Garments have also rifled through Carhartt's extensive catalogue for design inspiration. When we sourced this exceptional early 1920′s Carhartt denim chore jacket, we were more than elated. 10 oz denim, triple stitched seam work, and their iconic heart shaped buttons make this jacket a head turner. Although dating a vintage garment can be a daunting task, the patent date of the back of these buttons is 1918, which in turn creates a framework for noting the age of this particular garment. Any work wear aficionado or denim historian would be hard pressed to find a nicer example of an early 20th century work wear garment.
Join us this weekend as we partake in Souvenir Toronto's holiday sale located in the heart of Little Portugal. The event will be featuring over 30 local designers, artists, and makers.

3. Vintage 70s Game Used Montreal Expos Rusty Staub Wilson Flannel Uniform
If Daniel 'Rusty' Staub isn't at the top of a snubbed Hall Of Fame list, show us who's above him. Rusty dressed for 5 straight all star games from 1967-1971, which included 3 as a member of the 'Spos. Although Montreal's love affair with baseball lives on, the Expos moved south in 2004. With that being said, Rusty still remains as one of the most beloved ball players in Montreal's 30 plus year history. Any seasoned baseball fan of that era and media personnel would be the first to tell you that Rusty didn't have the warmest persona and sometimes his off field comments made him an easy target. Regardless, its hard for any baseball historian to look past his stats; 2700 hits, a .280 career hitter, and 6 all star game appearances. As a member of the Mets in 1973, he smoked three long balls and drove in 5 RBI's in the NLCS against The Big Red Machine. We were very excited to have sourced his 1972 powder blue wool flannel uniform. This uni was used by Rusty in spring training days before he became a Met, a trade that still baffles Expos fans to this day. This could possibly have been the last flannel jersey Staub wore as a member of the 'Spos. Rusty would dress one last time for the Expos in the late 1970′s, but he was a different player by then as his prowess and finesse were all but gone. Unfortunately father time had caught up to one of the game's most passionate players.
We were very honoured to offer our archival stock of athletic goods to our friends at Over the Rainbow for their exclusive event to launch menswear designer Todd Snyder's Champion collaboration this past Thursday night. It was fantastic to see Snyder's vision of re-imagined Champion pieces next to our original era specific garments. His attention to detail through tagging, fleece weight, and stitch count all add up to a phenomenal product. None of this would have been possible without the tireless work of both the Over the Rainbow staff and the merchandising genius over at Pygmalion. If you missed the event our vintage installation will on display until Sunday, September 22nd.
The removal of aboriginal nicknames from sports has continued to be a double edged sword. The vindication of local elders reclaiming tribal names and keeping them away from the Americanization and continual bastardization of sacred symbols has been praised by indigenous tribes the continent over. Sometimes teams losing their lineage and historical significance associated with its past monikers have meant that century old programs have been essentially erased from history. A school like Stanford, once known as the 'Indians' now are nationally regarded as the only college program to have a tree as a mascot. One can only imagine the fear and despair that a foam plant would usurp in another team during a raucous game day. A case can be made that the closest battle combatant archetype ever to live in North America was the aboriginal warrior, and any usage associated with this image is from a place of strength, valor, and might. Regardless of which side of the fence you sit on, the uniforms and garments manufactured during the first 75 years of the 20th century embossed with aboriginal iconography produced some of the most attractive and compelling items in the sports memorabilia and vintage clothing industry.

Yesterday I began a new sermon series. I will be taking a few weeks to define who we are, what we're going to do and why we're going to do it, and where we're going as a local church. I explained that our one new church is going to be organized into three parts: upreach (everything we do as a church when it comes to worship), inreach (everything we do as a church when it comes to discipleship), and outreach (everything we do as a church in service to the world locally, nationally, and internationally).
But, I made it very clear that all of our efforts in reaching up, reaching in, and reaching out are a response to-and fueled by-the fact that God, in Christ, has already reached down.
The gospel is the story of God in Christ reaching down to a sinful world and our tri-fold response to the gospel (or, the gospel-centered life) is a life lived reaching up, reaching in, and reaching out. God intends the reality and power of the gospel to mold and shape us at every point and in every way-defining the way we think, feel, and live as a local church.
My seminary friend Bob Thune (pastor of Coram Deo Church in Omaha, Nebraska) has written something to describe his church that I found very helpful to me as I describe our one new church. He explains that every church has a "DNA" - a set of deeply rooted values or characteristics that define it. As one new church committed to learn from the past, live in the present, and look to the future, we can describe Coral Ridge's DNA as "gospel-centered." So what does that mean, exactly?
As Bob rightly says, "Churches often obscure the glory of the gospel by reducing it to something less than it is. Some understand the gospel only as doctrinal content to be believed. Others diminish it to a personal, subjective experience of God's presence. Still others see it as a social cause to be championed. The gospel is none of these, and yet it is all of these. A truly gospel-centered church understands and embraces the fullness of the gospel as content, community, and cause."
The Gospel is a message that is to be preached or proclaimed (Mark 1:14; Acts 14:21; Rom 1:15; 1 Peter 1:12). It is the story of God's redemption of his fallen creation. It is the good news that God has acted in history to conquer evil and reconcile sinners to himself through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus (1 Cor 15:1-12). A gospel-centered church is one where the gospel is proclaimed clearly, consistently, and compellingly (1 Cor 9:16-23).
The gospel is not just a message to be believed, but a power to be experienced (Rom 1:16). The gospel shapes a new community as those who were formerly God's enemies are reconciled to Him (Rom 5:10) and adopted into his family (Gal 4:4-7). The church is not a place, but a people - a community that is continually being reformed and renewed by the transforming power of the gospel (Col. 1:6).
The gospel is a call to action - a declaration that "the kingdom of God is at hand" (Mark 1:15). God is not just interested in the salvation of humans, but in the restoration of all of creation to its original "good" (Gen 1:31; Rom 8:19-22). A gospel-centered church will be active in the work of mercy, justice, and cultural renewal, praying and working against the effects of sin so that God's will might be done "on earth as it is in heaven" (Matt 6:10).
Thanks Bob, for putting it so well-so biblically.

By Michael B. Gerrard, Andrew Sabin Professor of Professional Practice, director of the Center for Climate Change Law at Columbia Law School, and associate chair of the faculty of the Earth Institute. This is a cross-post from State of the Planet, a blog of the Earth Institute.
Though most attention last month focused on the Supreme Court ruling upholding federal reform of the health-care system, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia issued the most important judicial decision on climate change in five years. That decision upholds the Environmental Protection Agency's power to regulate greenhouse gases, and it is very good news for those who favor this approach.
In 2007 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled, in the landmark case of Massachusetts v. Environmental Protection Agency, that a statute enacted by Congress in 1970 — the Clean Air Act — authorizes EPA to regulate greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide. Not much happened for the balance of the Bush administration, but shortly after Barack Obama took office in January 2009, EPA issued an "endangerment finding" — a formal determination that greenhouse gases pose a danger to public health and welfare. That finding is a prerequisite to further regulation.
With that in hand, EPA proceeded to issue a set of major new rules. Among other things, it and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration issued new standards (the first in decades) for fuel economy of automobiles and light trucks. EPA also required major stationary sources of air pollution, such as power plants and factories, to obtain permits for their greenhouse-gas emissions.
Industries (led by the fossil fuel lobby) and states (led by Texas) that oppose such regulation reacted furiously. They filed more than 100 lawsuits against EPA. Some claimed that the "Climategate" e-mails and a handful of errors in reports of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change had cast doubt on the integrity of the climate science underlying the endangerment finding. They also took an opposite tack, and said EPA's regulations of stationary sources were too lax, because they regulated only the largest sources and not the millions of small sources that exceed certain statutory thresholds.

I-formation or four reciever spread offense...
I formation simplifies the running and four WR set simplifies the passing game and makes opposing denfenses a little more honest.
I coach rec football down here in louisiana for about 3 years now. I usally run a 3 back set. I'm thinking about changing my offense but remember it is 11 and 12 yr olds. Anyone have any sugestions?

No way 4 WR works unless you have a really special QB.
Go with a triple option wing T
Passing the Ball usually doesnt work with little kids....I suggest an I Formation and Run the Rock....and use that to set up a PA(play action) and throw. On Defence id probably run a 5-2.
Duh... He said 11-12 year olds... Hello!!!
I formation because you need a fullback in case linemen miss blocks(often). Offset him or teach the Qb to reverse pivot the pitch play, either measure simplifies the pitch because the lead back can get in the way.
If the line has big size, man up in the wing t. If the line is smaller, block down and kick out with a lead back in the I on downhill runs. Wing formations extend the outside rush distance to slow the blitz, I formations simply make it easier to create the crease a decent back needs to break the run or to get runners wide with a lead blocker to guide them.
The Tom Walsh system.
i do have a special qb. He can throw 30 yards acurate. 3 receivers that catches everything! my o-line averages about 180 pounds. One kid is 306 pounds and he is 11. My son weighs about 140 and he plays runningback. speed and loves to stiff arm. Reminds me of the late ironhead heyword.Originally Posted by KELLYISTHEMAN
damn... those are some big ass kids... you should get good a power running game going with the I formation and run a little play action with 3 wide...Originally Posted by airaider 2005
Wishbone usually is good for kids
I formation as always. It's the easiest to teach because it's primarilly a running offense.
