Iolanthe Tennyson has had a very bad year—due in part to the very bad men in her life. So she's accepted her cousin's invitation to spend the summer in Austria to indulge her photography hobby. Rumors of a haunted forest there draw Iolanthe into the dark woods—and into the 18th century....
Nikola Czerny is a cursed man, forced by his half brothers to live forever as a Dark One. But his miserable existence takes an intriguing turn when a strange, babbling woman is thrown in his path. Iolanthe claims to know Nikola's daughter—300 years in the future. She also knows what fate—in the form of his murderous half brothers—has in store for him. If only she knew the consequences of changing the past to save one good, impossibly sexy vampire....

Say something about yourself!
i luv the katie macalister series. the dark ones. the father was too sexy and the fact he and the female were from two different eras was very funny. her attraction to him drove her mad and had me in stitches. luv the the story and sex both a plus for me.
"I just cannot finish this book!!!"
I love this author but this vampire series is lacking. I just cannot make myself listen anymore. Even when I had nothing new in my library, I had to re-listen to old favorites. I felt the narrator just could not construct the humor in the blueprint of this book. Therefore, I just could not appreciate the tone of the characters. I thought perhaps I was not in the right mood for it at the first listen, so I paused to listen to another. Every time I returned to the book I felt like it was just wasting my time.
Other series by this author are fantastic. This vampire shtik just doesn't work.Im too disappointed to try another by this author and narrator. I cannot recommend this book!
Tell us about yourself! What can I say I love Books, All kinds of Books, especially Historical, Scottish Highlander, Paranormal, Romance.
"Great Entertainment !!!!!!"
I Loved this Story!! I was laughing through it all.!!!
A Terrific sense of humor and great written story!!!
The Narrator Nicole Poole was absolutely the best I have lissen to.
She just got the caractors right and because of that she made me laugh.
needless to say I am going to see about other books from Katie MacAlister
and hope for Nicole Poole to be the Narrator !!!
"If they can't do the accent ..."
then they shouldn't narrate the book. The bizarre Austrian accent was just too strange and made it impossible to enjoy this book. The story idea sounded good, but the narration just killed it. I'll have to add Nicole Poole to my list of narrators to avoid. I wouldn't recomend this recording.

He's not going anywhere and will be back next season.
Comment on Living Legends: Where are they now?
Glad to see Duce becoming a quality coach in the NFL.
I've questioned Haney's logic in some of his articles in the past and his thinking that Spurrier is on near the top of the list is just plain absurd. I don't see Spurrier leaving Columbia for anything other than a daily tee time here at Augusta National.
Agree with Chris here. You can say "max protect" all you want but if poorly executed (we are talking about a team whose offensive linemen blocked each other not once but twice in the last two years), a blocked punt and block FG are going to happen.
You could clearly see that Hargreaves was set to dive forward on Mike Davis, then Davis made a cut and went to his right, causing Hargreaves to look like he was shoved.
I'll be happy to have him as the DC in Columbia. Ward will get to finish his season at Carolina but he won't be back.
Several times during the game it looked like Spurrier was abandoning the run game but would switch back, thankfully.

Amazing story Luttrell has, great read and great movie. CGD missed the chance to have Kyle Carpenter as the guest picker while in Columbia earlier this year.
Agree. Can't leave the guy who holds the record for most wins in school history out of a top 5 discussion.
It took 9 played games in the season for these adjustments to be made...

We changed up the contest this year. We had sessions on three obstacles: the bump-to-flat bar, the pyramid and the stairs.
The flat bar sesh was intense! A few of the tricks that went down were: Kickflip front lip, bs noseblunt, front crook, nosegrind 180, fs blunt, bs tail, kickflip bs lip and noseblunt.
After the flat bar, we turned around to watch pure chaos on the pyramid. People were hauling from both directions to the same structure. I think everyone who skated, perfected the art of threading the needle.

What does the CCRM control on a 4.6L V8?
I replaced it because it failed and caused my Engine Cooling fan to burn out and the cooling fan only worked when the air conditioner was on. After replacing it, the cooling fan now comes on when the engine gets warm, without having to turn on the A/C.
My wife and I think the car is riding smoother now also, can that be true?
Before replacing the CCRM, the car would shake whenever you hit the smallest of bumps in the road, but now, it feels like you don't feel the bumps anywhere near as much.
Does the CCRM have any control over the supension?
1 Answer
I don't think the CCRM has any control over the suspension, but it seems that whatever you did the car is running more in sync now than it was before. Whatever you did, you did it well!

Korea's fish special: a delicate mix of outhouse and ammonia
Even some South Koreans who are otherwise fiercely proud of their fiery, often odoriferous foods admit to being repelled by the fermented skate fish known as hongeo, and baffled by its rising popularity. "It's like licking a urinal," says one American who blogs about Korean food.
The New York Times
HEUKSAN ISLAND, South Korea — South Korea has a generous list of foods some find hard to swallow, among them boiled silkworm pupae and live baby octopuses, which have been known to attach their suction cups to the roofs of diners' mouths in what appear to be desperate bids to escape.
But fermented skate from this southern island tops them all. By far South Korea's smelliest food, the fish, called hongeo, is described by lovers and detractors alike as releasing odors reminiscent of an outhouse. Served most often as chewy pink slabs of sashimi, hongeo is prized by enthusiasts for the ammonia fumes it releases, sometimes so strong they cause people's mouths to peel.
"I used to think that people could not possibly eat this stuff unless they were crazy," said Park Jae-Hee, a 48-year-old marketing executive. "But like smelly blue cheese, it has no replacement once you fall in love with it."
It is easy, of course, to poke fun at other nations' cuisines. But some South Koreans who are otherwise fiercely proud of their fiery, often odoriferous foods, like kimchi, admit to being repelled by hongeo and baffled by its rising popularity.
"I can't understand who in the world would pay to eat a rotten fish in a restaurant that smells like an uncleaned public restroom," said Park's closest friend, Huh Eun.
Even those who swoon over its exotic taste cheerily admit their passion comes with some social costs. A subway ride after a meal of hongeo can be isolating, with fellow riders sometimes casting furtive glances and sidling away. Owners of restaurants that specialize in hongeo advise customers to seal their jackets in plastic bags before the meal and offer to spray them with deodorant afterward.
"I've eaten dog, durian and bugs, but this is still the most challenging food I've ever eaten," said Joe McPherson, the American founder of the Korean food blog ZenKimchi, who has become a self-appointed ambassador for Korean cuisine. "It's like licking a urinal."
The lowly fish, once just a regional specialty in the southwest provinces of North and South Jeolla, followed the migration of rural workers during South Korea's industrial boom in the 20th century, with restaurants specializing in hongeo opening to serve growing populations of scattered Jeolla natives.
Still, it took a while to catch on, thwarted not only by its formidable odor and limited supply, but also by the regional prejudices that have dogged Jeolla, where Heuksan Island is. During decades of military dictatorships, the country's elites, often from rival Gyeongsang province, were accused of ostracizing Jeolla and fomented a bias that has outlived authoritarian rule.
Then, about 10 years ago, a free-trade agreement with Chile helped wear down resistance to Jeolla's signature fish dish, flooding the market with relatively cheap Chilean hongeo and inspiring new restaurants to open.
Among the legions of the fish's fans, the velvety texture of frozen hongeo liver melting on the tongue with a pinch of salt and red pepper has been compared to foie gras. The smell, to their minds, is most of the appeal, coupled with a tingling in the mouth that accompanies the hit of ammonia. Gourmets say a proper hongeo dinner must end with hongeo soup, steaming with the smell of boiling ammonia.
Despite the dish's newfound popularity, the center of hongeo worship remains here on Heuksan Island, off the country's southwestern tip. The bottom-feeding fish has long been the foundation of the island's economy, and fishing boats head out several times a month to nearby waters where hongeo feed and lay eggs.
Islanders say the fish first gained a following here because of a quirk of biology. In the days before refrigeration, the fishermen's forebears learned that hongeo was the only fish they could ship to the mainland 60 miles away without salting. The hongeo, lacking a bladder, excretes uric acid through its skin. As it ferments, it oozes ammonia that keeps it from going bad.
"Hongeo can't pee, and that's where the miracle begins," said Kim Young-Chang, 77, the owner of a hongeo restaurant here. A true believer in the fish's power, Kim rattled off a list of health benefits he believes come from eating it. "I have never seen anyone having stomach trouble after eating hongeo," he proclaimed.
Among Heuksan residents and their neighbors across the water in mainland Jeolla, hongeo has long been an integral part of local tradition and lore. Wedding parties are considered incomplete if hongeo is not served. And natives point out that the dissident-turned-president Kim Dae-jung, perhaps Jeolla's most famous son, was so homesick for the fish that politicians made sure to bring him fresh stocks during the years of military rule when he was in exile.
The fish has also helped rejuvenate this island of 2,200, once a major port. The town had declined in recent decades, as boats with refrigerated storage could bring their catch farther and found less use for the island as an offshore trading post.
But with hongeo's growing popularity, residents began pitching the island as a tourist attraction where people could sample authentic "Heuksan-do hongeo."

New Braunfels River Condo Rentals(14)

Recent New Braunfels Reviews
Great location - great owner
We stayed in this condo in mid-October. We loved the river-front location with nice green space and proximity to town. I imagine it's very busy in the high season but we had the place to ourselves. The condo is well equipped and comfortable. The washer/dryer was not working while we were there and we had a problem with the air conditioning that was quickly rectified by Sharon. After fighting traffic through San Antonio and Austin we were extra happy to be in less busy location but still central to everything (~40 minutes to the Alamo, ~50 minutes to downtown Austin, ~30 minutes to hill country, ~5 minutes to Gruene). We really enjoyed the Cave Without a Name at Boerne and the lovely Gristmill in Gruene. But mostly, we loved swimming in the crystal clear river, then warming up in the pool and hot tub. We'd stay here again!
Family weekend
Rating Details: I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. I was very happy with the location. The vacation rental was spotless. The property manager was very helpful. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great place! Will be going back next year.
Great Place!!! Lots of fun!!
Inverness is a great property with very easy access to everything (River, Schlitterbahn and all of New Braunfels). But you really don't have to leave Inverness to have a great time, everything you need is there. As for the condo, it has to be the best at Inverness! We had friends staying in another condo at Inverness. They had a great view of the river that we didn't have but our condo was 100 times nicer. The owners had everything we needed in the condo. We plan to make this a yearly trip!!

People can read traditional printed books a good bit faster than eBooks on tablet computers, a new study has found.
The study tested peoples' pace of reading on two popular e-reader tablets – Apple's iPad and Amazon's Kindle 2 – as well as a standard PC monitor and a plain ol' regular book.
The test used some Hemingway stories, which took on average more than 17 minutes to read.
To make sure people did not just skim the stories, the participants were given a reading comprehension tests afterward.
Overall, the study revealed that people read text 6.2 percent slower on an iPad than on the printed page. With the Kindle, reading was 10.7 percent slower.
Nielsen noted that this difference between the e-readers was not statistically significant, however, so in the end the only fair statement is that "tablets still haven't beaten the printed book," Nielsen wrote.

Apple airs new iPod touch 4G commercial
Apple has started to air a new commercial for the fourth-generation iPod touch. Entitled "Share the Fun," the 30-second spot shows a number of middle- and high-school aged kids using the device to text each other over iMessage, video chat over FaceTime, play online multiplayer games using Game Center, update Twitter, listen to music, and record video, while the song "Tongue Tied" by Grouplove plays in the background. Notably, given the lack of new iPod touch hardware this year, the commercial emphasizes features added in iOS 5. The new ad is available for viewing now on YouTube or in embedded form below.

OAK BROOK, ILL. — The Waffle Taco hasn't wavered McDonald's Corp.'s confidence in its own breakfast platform. Despite a heated marketing battle with Taco Bell following the Mexican fast-food chain's March roll-out of the morning meal, McDonald's said it has seen no impact on its sales since the launch.
"We have had some of our major competitors that have made runs at breakfast, and it seems every year there is someone new that is making a run and none of them have really stopped their focus on breakfast," said Don Thompson, president and chief executive officer, during an April 22 call with financial analysts to discuss first-quarter earnings. "We have not seen an impact relative to the most recent competitors that entered the space. One of the things that happens at breakfast if anyone enters, customers will try the breakfast, that it is new, it will be something that they have not seen in the marketplace, so we expect customers to try it. But what we are also confident in is our ability to execute our breakfast…"
New entrants into the market attract attention to breakfast, which, he said, in many cases benefits McDonald's.
"Our breakfast continues to be a positive driver in our business in the U.S. and actually sometimes when these entrants come in, it causes us, it forces us, to focus even more on being aggressive relative to breakfast," he said.
Part of that push included a free coffee offer McDonald's launched shortly after Taco Bell's breakfast debut. McDonald's also stands behind its strengths in the day part, which include prepared products and quick assembly.
"We cook in our restaurants; it is not a microwave deal," Mr. Thompson said. "We have grills and fryers and ovens, and so that is the reason that we are able to prepare breakfast. The other thing is our breakfast model is also focused on how we serve up that breakfast quickly to customers that are on the go. And so, we continue to focus on those areas of strength that we have. We have been serving breakfast now for over 30 years. And it is our strongest, one of our strongest day parts clearly."
Value represents another focus in McDonald's menu plans. Last year, the chain introduced the Dollar Menu & More, a revamp of its previous dollar menu with more variety and higher price points. The new value platform has performed to expectations, but Mr. Thompson said the chain hasn't seen "any dramatic change to the usage" of the new dollar menu.
"Dollar Menu & More, as a per cent of total day sales, seems to be relatively in line with our historical averages," he said.
Balancing value, core offerings and limited-time items is a priority of McDonald's in its U.S. restaurants, which posted a comparable sales decline of 1.7% during the quarter. The chain also is initiating a "reset" in its U.S. stores, which will include an emphasis on proper staffing, scheduling and positioning of employees to build restaurant capacity in peak hours.

"Day Trip From Paris?... Look No Further!"
It's a first hand account of the author's travels through France, most sights and destinations are within a 90-minute radius from Paris, all accessible either by metro or train (regional train or fast train / TGV). The destinations are set up in chronological order in an attempt to educate the reader a bit about French History – it works! It's a wonderful guidebook – although not the type you'd carry around with you.
Perhaps it's because I am planning a trip to Paris for next spring and I am all ears when it comes to suggestions that I was so enamoured by this book, but I think anyone could benefit from the ideas presented.
You can be sure this book will be a resource for every trip to France I ever make! The entire thing was interesting, but I really perked up when it covered places I'd already visited (most of Paris, Versailles, Fontainebleau, Chartres and Rouen) or the parts that cover things I plan to see and do on my next trip (more of Paris, Tours and Lyon).
It was a great book, and excellent idea, and a lot of fun to read! Can't wait to get over there and follow in her footsteps!
"I just didn't get it"
Was it me? Am I missing something obvious? Based on the pedigree of the author, I am more inclined to think I am overlooking something as opposed to this just being a really boring story.
I feel that high-brow people feel obligated to say intelligent things about the book because Margaret Atwood is so renowned … whereas I just think it sucked.
"Not My Favourite Instalment"
I didn't like this one as much as the others, but it doesn't matter. I'm still enjoying the series very much, and although I found there was something lacking in this instalment I am still a big Molly Murphy fan.
"A Long Stand-Up Routine"
I picked up this book after seeing a funny segment on The Tonight Show where Jim Gaffigan was plugging it. I got a few giggles watching him and Jimmy Fallon joke around, and thought his book might be enjoyable.
It was, however it's like 7 hours of stand-up on the same topic; funny but a little too long. I didn't laugh out loud, but I smiled and chuckled a lot - it was entertaining but I can't really say I'd recommend it.
"Immensely Entertaining"
As per usual, RJS has me riveted to every word!
His stories are always intensely interesting, deeply thought-provoking, and immensely entertaining.
I've said it before and it's still true: I can't get enough!
"I Learned Something New!"
Great story! Interesting and suspenseful the entire way through.
It was hard for me to follow the various story lines at first since I have trouble keeping track of names, but that didn't last long and I soon got swept up by the plot.
I also loved learning about the Pan Am Clipper!! I knew nothing about it prior to this book; a fascinating little bit of history.
"Total Fail"
Wow – I did NOT enjoy this book!
I was in a Paris mood, looking for something "scenic" that would recall memories of past visits to Paris - instead I got drippy, insipid, BORING drivel.
The characters were flat and unbelievable, the plot was uninteresting, the flashbacks were unexciting, the story uninspired… so why did I read on? Because I kept hoping things would improve; how much worse could they get since the book started off on such a low?
The narration was a farce. The French accents were so extremely comically bad, to me it felt like what Americans think French people should sound like (when they are making fun of them!) It was over the top absurdly bad – everyone was a cliché of Clouseau. "Ziss iz zee best place to ave crrrrrroisant! Come ma belle, let us enjoy zee sun. It tiz a bootifool afternoon,non"
ugh, I can't even fake it.
"I am thoroughly enjoying this author!"
This was my 3rd Liane Moriarty book and so far I just loved them all! This author is now a default hit for me, meaning I'll read more of her books without reading the synopsis first, confident they'll all be as terrific as the last 3 I've read (The Husband's Secret / Little Big Lies / What Alice Forgot)
'What Alice Forgot' is yet another example of a book with an original plot, where the ending doesn't matter. Wrap it up, don't wrap it up - who cares, it's all about the ride.
The characters are all so interesting, real, complicated, relatable, that you just get reeled in by the events and enjoy the journey.
I can't wait to read more books by this author, I am hooked!
"I love, love, loved it!!!"
What a great story!
Just like the last book I read by Liane Moriarty (The Husband's Secret – which I also loved) I was completely swept up by the characters. There were a lot of them in this book, which is usually very difficult for me as I have a lot of trouble remembering who is who, but the characters were all so dynamic and interesting that it was it pretty easy this time... although not effortless, I did get mixed up occasionally!
The story is like a mystery in reverse - you know there has been a murder but you don't know anything about it, like: who dunnit? Why? How? Who died? Then rewind 6 months and let the build up begin; like circling down around a drain, closer and closer to the last day – the day it all happened.
The storylines are all interconnected, and as the story moves along you discover just how much. I don't think anyone could have guessed the ending ahead of time, but all the red herrings certainly made it fun to try!
I am downloading What Alice Forgot right away!!!!
"Very interesting, but way too graphic for me."
I always knew about the deplorable living conditions that the poorest of the poor in London had to endure in the late 19th and early 20th century, but never have I read a book that describes it all so vividly!
I can't fathom what it must have been like to live through it; it was hard to keep reading because I was so disgusted. It's all so appalling!! The scum and rot and pestilence surrounding people every day, putrefying scraps of food, decaying body odours, filthy surroundings; what a sad existence.
The stories are fascinating yet tragic, I don't think I will be reading the rest of the series; I can't take it.
"THIS IS NOT BOOK 8.5!!! it's book 0.5"
I downloaded this book without reading the synopsis thinking it really was book 8.5 in the series. Thank goodness it was free because I quickly realised I had already read it!
It's not book 8.5 as Audible labelled it, but rather book 0.5 - the prequel to the series.
Here is my review from when I read this book 6 months ago. I love this series, but I was underwhelmed by the plot:
I like this series a lot, but this prequel perplexed me? What was the point???? Although it's tagged as book 0.5 in the series it was written before Book 6, so perhaps I'll understand the purpose of it when I read that instalment. If it DOES have a direct link with the developments in Book 6, since this book is less 50 pages long why not just include it all in the book??? Is there a page limit per book?

A nine-year-old Dunnville boy is dead after a game of "puppy" went tragically wrong.
Dustyn Drennan loved dogs. He'd been bugging his mom for a puppy for weeks.
On Wednesday, he was playing at his great aunt's dog grooming salon, run out of her Dunnville home — a place he, his brothers and cousins visited often.
They were allowed to watch her groom the pets, and pat them if they were friendly — but they were not allowed on the grooming table, his grandmother, Cheryl Murphy, said Friday.
"That was not permitted," said Murphy — whose sister Debbie owns the salon, Pampered Pooch.
But on Wednesday, the curious, dog-loving, nine-year-old boy decided to "play puppy" when no one was looking. He climbed up on the table with a leash on, and he slipped and fell.
Police were called to the home, around suppertime, when the young boy was discovered. Murphy said the family is distraught, but has been overwhelmed by the community's support.
"You couldn't get a better town, a community. Just watching these things … you know … that's what makes this easier for us, is just knowing how much everybody loved him," Murphy said.
Grief counsellors have been appointed at Thomson Creek Elementary School in Dunnville where Dustyn was a Grade 4 student.
The boy's dad, William Drennan, was at a Tim Hortons Wednesday when he saw emergency vehicles racing in the direction of the home. He followed, and was horrified when he arrived to hear they were racing toward his son.
"You can't watch every move they do … any parent, you know that … you cannot," he said Friday.
Dustyn was initially rushed to the Dunnville Hospital, and was then transferred to Hamilton General Hospital where he was pronounced dead at 12:58 a.m.
William Drennan described his son, who he'd nicknamed "Goose," as an active kid who loved biking and skateboarding:
"Dustyn was a very outside person. He was always on the go, very adventurous," he said.
More than anything, his family says, he loved dogs.
A dog will be etched into his headstone.
Dustyn leaves behind his parents, Christine and William Drennan, three brothers, Dakota, Dawson and Jayce, and two half-brothers, William Jr. and Brendan.
Visitation is Sunday night, 7-9 p.m., at the J.W. Hart Funeral Home in Dunnville. A funeral is at 11 a.m. Monday at the Calvary Pentecostal Church in Dunnville.

Megan Fox "I Smoke Weed"
The sexy Transformers star admits she would be the first in line if pot was legalised.
Transformers star Megan Fox has never been one to shy away from talking about her marijuana habits.
In an interview with British GQ Fox calls for the legalisation of marijuana saying "When they do, I'll be the first person in line to buy my pack of joints."
"I can't tell you how much bullshit I've been through because I will openly say that I smoke weed. People look at it like it's this crazy, hippy, fucked-up thing to do. And it's not. I hope they legalise it."
This is isn't the first time Fox has spoken openly about taking drugs. In an interview with Maxim in 2007 the star said "I've done drugs. I didn't enjoy anything other than marijuana - it should be legalised."

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Avid Alabama Hockey Fans
by Paul on 09/23/05 at 01:28 PM ET
Comments (0)
Chris Crenshaw remembers the moment he realized that ice hockey had made it big in Alabama. The director of the Huntsville Silver Sticks had taken some of his players to the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto. Since Alabama isn't known much for its hockey tradition, Crenshaw was somewhat stunned when he looked up and saw a puck with the logo of the University of Alabama-Huntsville, one of the few colleges in the South that plays Division I hockey. A few minutes later, at another display, he and his players saw a UAH jersey. It symbolized how important the game is in Alabama, a state that has never hosted an NHL game, but still is home to an avid hockey fan base.
