Maureen Verdon, long-time resident of Glen Cove, and a friend to many, sadly passed away last week after a serious, although mercifully short-lived illness. Many in Glen Cove knew Maureen; her lilting British accent, hearty laugh and wise-cracking good humor were unmistakable. Born and raised in London to Irish parents, she spent most of her life in Glen Cove. Some remember her from the Powers Chemco company, others knew her as the sassy waitress at the old Delicious Pizza on Forest Ave., where she waitressed for 14 years. She delighted in the innocence of children, and although childless herself, she happily watched generations of Glen Cove families as they grew up. She ingratiated herself to people of all ages, because she possessed high energy, a "can do" attitude and a youthful exuberance. Maureen also had a definite sense of right and wrong, and she was always ready to fight for anyone who had been somehow treated unjustly. One would always be glad to have Maureen on one's side.

Six Feet Over It by Jennifer Longo
Leigh sells graves for her family-owned cemetery because her father is too lazy to look farther than the dinner table when searching for employees. Working the literal graveyard shift, she meets two kinds of customers:
Pre-Need: They know what's up. They bought their graves a long time ago, before they needed them.
At Need: They are in shock, mourning a loved one's unexpected death. Leigh avoids sponging their agony by focusing on things like guessing the headstone choice (mostly granite).
Sarcastic and smart, Leigh should be able to stand up to her family and quit. But her world's been turned upside down by the sudden loss of her best friend and the appearance of Dario, the slightly-too-old-for-her grave digger. Surrounded by death, can Leigh move on, if moving on means it's time to get a life?
Into the Grey by Celine Kiernan
Set in Ireland in the early 1970s, this story stars twin brothers Patrick and Dom Finnerty, who have their world turned upside down when their house and all they possess is burned to the ground. Displaced, the family moves into their summer seaside cottage. Now in the middle of winter, the cottage seems dull, bleak, and quite eerie. Suffering from horrible nightmares, the boys' bond of brotherly love is put to the test when they discover that the "goblin-boy" is not just a dream. When Patrick tries to rid them of the ghostly creature, it takes possession of Dom instead. Patrick realizes that in order to save his brother's life he must befriend this ghost and figure out what it wants and why before time runs out. The protagonist's journey of self-discovery uncovers numerous family secrets, forges unlikely allies, and proves that the power of friendship, loyalty, and love are far stronger than he ever imagined.

County leaders address taxpayers' questions
Date: June 11, 2009
by: Robin Roy | City Editor
Sarasota County leaders held a live town hall meeting on the budget June 8, in an effort to become more open and transparent.
It was called a "virtual" town hall meeting, because it was broadcast on TV and streamed live on the Internet, allowing viewers to call or e-mail questions about next year's county budget.
Ken Jefferson, former local news anchor, hosted the program; answering taxpayers' questions were County Commission Chairman Jon Thaxton, County Administrator Jim Ley and County Budget Director Steve Botelho.
Many of the questions centered on the possible loss of services next year, as the county struggles with lower property-tax- and sales-tax revenues — services such as libraries.
County department heads were on hand to answer such questions.
Library Director Sarabeth Kalajian said she planned to cut hours slightly, which would save some money, but would also make library hours more consistent across all county libraries and all days of the week.
Jefferson, a 23-year news veteran, then pressed for answers on libraries, asking: "Is the county getting out of the library business?" and "Is there any chance they'll close?"
Kalajian said the county is exploring the possibility of hiring an outside contractor to run its libraries, but she doesn't anticipate the libraries closing.
Thaxton and Ley spent a considerable amount of time explaining how little discretion they had in how tax dollars were used.
"Last year, the County Commission had total control over 17.5% of property taxes," Thaxton said. "Most people think we have control over it all."
A major percentage of property taxes is dedicated to things, such as the school system, and cannot be reallocated.
The county's communications department will receive the numbers at the end of the week on how many people viewed the meeting over the Internet. Depending on what those numbers reveal, the county may organize more virtual town hall meetings in the future.
On the night of the town hall meeting, Sarasota County debuted a new feature on its Web site — a budget calculator. The calculator allows taxpayers to prioritize various county expenses, such as parks-and-recreation activities. Once those expenses are ranked, the calculator displays the money needed to pay for that expense and how much can be saved by cutting those services. To use the calculator, go to www.scgov.net/communityconnections/survey/survey.html.

Good advice Rachna. Number Two is a tough call--assuming that many readers will pick up Book 2 or 3 and need to know some but not too much background.
- November 29, 2011 at 6:37 AM
- Madeleine said...
Excellent pointers. I was thinking about the very topic myself yesterday and how clever authors are to keep a story flowing over several books.
- November 29, 2011 at 7:31 AM
- Elizabeth Varadan aka Mrs. Seraphina said...
I don't have any tips, but I certainly like the tips you shared with us, Rachna. Thanks. I have two different series on the back burner, so I definitely will keep those pointers in mind when I get back to them.
- November 29, 2011 at 7:35 AM
- Rachna Chhabria said...
@ Rahul..it needs lot of planning as so far I have only written standalone books.
@ Sogyel...thanks for your wishes.
@ Slamdunk...I agree that No. 2 is indeed a tough call. I feel that I have to control the urge to overdo on backstory for fear of boring the readers.
@ Madeleine..I envy writers who have the ability to write series.
@ Elizabeth..I am trying to get as much help as I can to help me write and plot the trilogy. Am just sharing what I came across.

You are going to have to repeat yourself, so don't worry about that too much. You will have to remind people of the conflicts and characters of the previous books. I hated having to remind people about the abilities and history of some of my characters in my second novel. But as my editor said. It may be a day, or it may be several years before someone who reads the first, reads the second.
It can be hard to keep track of everything. I outline like crazy to keep it all going in the direction I want. As you create, it will take on a life of its own so you need to be able to keep the work pointed in the right direction.
Starting a series as stand alone books is good, but eventually your fans will read them in order and you can develop larger complex story arcs that span multiple books. TV shows do this a lot. Look at Star Trek or Stargate. Each season has its 'entry point' episodes. Monster of the week is what we call them. The overall story doesn't advance much but it allows new fans to jump into the series.
Characters are kinda easy. Flesh them out on the side. You don't have to use all of the information, but it comes in handy when you get stuck or just need a prod to keep things going. For example, take a character. How old are they? What town were they born in? What was the name of their first grade teacher? Did they ever break a bone playing too rough, or chip a tooth? Who was their best friend? Did they go to collage or not?
Is all this important to the reader or the story? It doesn't matter. But now you know why he doesn't want to take his date to the bowling alley. Because from second grade to ninth grade he was the state bowling champion and no matter how hard he tries. He won't be able to let her win.

I'm about to write the second book in a middle grade trilogy! This was some very good timing on some really great information! Thank you.

- Lynda R Young said...
Yes, my YA fantasy is a standalone but it has series potential. I've plotted out book 2 and have conflicts and events in mind for book 3. It does take some extra work.
- November 29, 2011 at 1:34 PM
- The Golden Eagle said...
Recently, the projects I've started have been standalones--but my first novel I split up into a trilogy. Keeping track of all the information was one of the hardest parts for me.
- November 29, 2011 at 4:07 PM
- Victoria Dixon said...
Great stuff, Rachna. Thanks for sharing. The only way I like trilogies any more is if they're written as one giant story (think LOTR). Too many trilogies/series are just the same darn story told over and over. Even Harry Potter suffered from that a bit. She just did a great job of world and character building and mystery additions.
- November 29, 2011 at 7:25 PM
- Robyn Campbell said...
Not doing a trilogy, but I am writing another novel that has my same characters in it. But my writing partner is doing a trilogy. The second one hits bookshelves in January. So I know something about this subject. I wish you luck with yours, Rachna. And she didn't plan her trilogy. It started with one book. It was after she sold the first one that the trilogy was born. So one never knows. *waving*

Fascinating stuff. Not directly applicable to me, but I found it absorbing.
- November 30, 2011 at 3:16 AM
- Laura Marcella said...
When I was in high school I started planning a trilogy (I wrote the first book but not the others). I just kept notebooks for each book with my information organized. You can get 3 or 5-subject notebooks for each book. One subject can be for the characters in that book, another section for the major plot points, another section for world building, another section to keep track of the details important for all three books, etc.
Good luck, Rachna, and have fun with it!!

- Medeia Sharif said...
Thank you for sharing. It does take a lot to keep track of sequel books and ensure that material is fresh. My current WIP is a standalone, unlike my last WIP, so I don't have to worry about this currently, but I will keep all of these points in mind.

I'm finding No. 2 becomes easier with time, and I suppose, with experience.
Most of my epic fantasy novels are part of a broad series that will eventually include between 40 to 50 novels and an untold number of short stories. I've currently finished four novels, four novellas and a half dozen or so short stories in the series, and am currently working on the next novel.
I've gotten to the point where I don't feel I have to bring up a bunch of stuff from earlier books and stories. As mentioned, it's just part of the characters' histories, so I only include what's relevant in each novel. Heck, sometimes whole characters and earlier plot lines go unmentioned because they aren't relevant.
- December 1, 2011 at 8:55 PM
For anyone planning a series for kids, I can't think of a better resource than the thousands of interviews with J.K. Rowling on Accio Quote! By going through them (in no particular order) it's possible to discover J.K. Rowling's process, how she planned Harry Potter, and what she believes are the two most important things a writer can do.
- December 11, 2011 at 3:13 PM
- Shaun said...
This is why in my opinion Harry Potter is so successful. There are new characters in each book. New spells. New creatures. etc. It keeps things fresh.

Nightbane is a Dark Fantasy Tabletop Role-Playing Game and setting created by C. J. Carella and published in 1995 by Palladium Books. Originally published under the title "Nightspawn", the game's name was changed after legal threats from the lawyers of Todd Mc Farlane, creator of the Spawn comic book.The setting is this: On March 6, 2000, the entire planet was shrouded in unnatural darkness. This was due to The Nightlords, a secret cabal of supernatural beings from another dimension, and their shapeshifting minions, who then quietly seized control of the world's governments and corporate powers. It was also during this darkness that thousands of people learned that they had become inhuman monsters. These shapechanging beings are called the Nightbane, for it was at night that they become monsters. It is now up to the Nightbane to save the Earth from the Nightlords with the rest of humanity unaware of their secret war.The game uses Palladium's "Megaversal" system, which is also used by the multi-genre game Rifts and the horror game Beyond The Supernatural, among others. Players don't have to be just Nightbane, however, they can also be human, vampires and even mysterious angelic beings known as The Guardians.There are several factions that the players can encounter, or even join: The Resistance, made of up Nightbane who oppose the Nightlords; The Underground Railroad, who just wants Nightbane to keep hiding from humanity; The Warlords, Nightbane who used their powers to take over gangs and organized crime; The Nocturne, an alliance of supernatural beings (including vampires, whom most Nightbane do not trust); The Seekers, a group (mainly of humans) who investigate magic and the supernatural; The Spook Squad, an organization made up of (former) government agents who survived the Nightlord takeover and are trying to retake control (but are underpowered and barely understand what's going on); and The Lightbringers, all-around do-gooders led by The Guardians.

Florida officials encourage lionfish harvests
State wildlife officials want to permanently change rules that will make it easier to catch lionfish in Florida waters.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission discussed the rule change Wednesday.
The FWC put a temporary rule in place last August that waived the recreational fishing license requirement when targeting lionfish with pole spears, handheld nets, Hawaiian slings or other devices specifically designed for catching lionfish. This temporary rule change also removed any bag limits. Before the change, recreational anglers could not catch more than 100 pounds of lionfish without a commercial license.
Removing the waiver will make it easier to increase harvesting opportunities.
Commissioners will finalize the changes at their June meeting in Lakeland.
Lionfish have no natural reef predators and compete for food and habitat against domestic species such as grouper and snapper. The fish belong in the Indian and Pacific oceans.
According to wildlife officials, lionfish off the southeast United States, Bahamas and the Caribbean harm indigenous fish because they eat important juvenile reef species, such as grouper and snapper.
Spearing or using hand-held nets are the most effective method of removing lionfish from Florida waters.
Lionfish have venomous spines but they are edible. When properly cleaned, lionfish yield a white meat that is considered a delicacy.

Jemma Rix has been playing Elphaba in Wicked since 2008. That's six years of defying gravity, covered in green make-up. When Jemma spoke to Neil Litchfield, he began by asking how she keeps her performance fresh after so long, and how she copes with the make up.

November 28, 2014
May 26, 2009
(Mike Griffith, GoVolsXtra.com) -- Basketball prospect Aaron Craft isn't ready to volunteer his services to Tennessee, after all.
Craft, a 6-foot-1 point guard from Liberty Benton High School in Findlay, Ohio, announced Tuesday that he is re-opening his recruitment.
Craft made a verbal commitment to play for the Vols on Sept. 3, 2008, but much has changed since then.
For starters, his recruiting ranking, and thus, the level of interest from other marquee programs.
Craft, who will graduate in the Class of 2010, wasn't listed in the top 150 of the Rivals ranking at the time of his commitment and was relatively anonymous among most all recruiting services.
Craft has since risen to No. 70 in the Rivals 150, ranking 18th among point guards in the Class of 2010.
The Vols have commitments from two others guards in the Class of 2010, Josh Selby and Jordan McRae.
Selby, from DeMatha High School in Hyattsville, MD., is the No. 15 player in the Class of 2010 according to Rivals and the No. 3 point guard. The 6-1 Selby made a verbal commitment to attend UT on Sept. 20, 2008.
McRae, a 6-foot-6 shooting guard from Liberty County (Ga.) High School Also committed that same day. McRae is the No. 37 player in the Class of 2010 and ranked No. 9 among shooting guards.
The Vols signed junior college point guard Melvin Goins, of Mount San Jacinto (Calif.) to their most recent signing class on April 15, and Grainger County's Skylar McBee pledged his services on May 7.
McBee, a 6-2 combo-guard, turned down scholarship offers from Marshall and Santa Clara to join UT as a walk-on this summer with hopes of earning a scholarship after his freshman year.

Automotive Hall of Fame to induct Volkswagen's Ferdinand Piech
Images courtesy Volkswagen, Porsche and Audi
Later this year, Dr. Ferdinand K. Piëch will join fellow 2014 inductees Tucker designer Alex Tremulis, customer satisfaction firm founder J.D. "Dave" Power III and automotive media pioneer Keith Crain in entering America's Automotive Hall of Fame.
Grandson of engineer Professor Ferdinand Porsche, the 76-year-old Dr. Piëch has enjoyed a long and illustrious career working at his family-tied firms of Porsche, Audi and Volkswagen. After earning a degree from Zurich's Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, he began as a test engine specialist at Dr. Ing. h. c. F Porsche in 1963, and worked his way up to the head of technical development in 1968, where he contributed to the 911 and led development of the Le Mans-winning 917.
Ferdinand Piëch (left) and Helmuth Bott (right) with the Porsche Type 917 in Works 1 in 1969.
Piëch began at Volkswagen subsidiary Audi in 1972, under the title of Main Division manager for Special Tasks, Technical Development, Audi NSU Auto Union AG. In three years, was in charge of the automaker's technical development division. It was there that he fostered Audi's technical reputation by encouraging the creation of Audi's groundbreaking quattro Coupe and the pioneering aerodynamic C3-generation 100/5000. He was appointed chairman of the Audi AG board of management in 1988.
He took over as Volkswagen's CEO and chairman of the management board in 1993, when Germany's largest automaker was in serious trouble. Dr. Piëch soon green-lighted the development of sales successes like the fourth-generation Passat and the New Beetle. As part of expanding Volkswagen's holdings, he allowed the purchase of Lamborghini, Bentley and Bugatti in 1998, leading to cars like the Gallardo, Continental GT and the record-breaking Veyron 16.4. He retired the CEO position to become chairman of the Volkswagen AG supervisory board in 2002, a title he still holds today.
The induction ceremony will take place July 24 at the Inn at St. John's in Plymouth, Michigan. For more information, visit AutomotiveHallofFame.org.
Import Carlisle 2011, a Hemmings Perspective
Another year has come and gone for the Northeast's largest multi-marque import specialty show, the Carlisle Import and Kit Nationals, which were held from Friday, May 20 through Sunday the 22nd. The featured country for 2011 was France, so there was an excellent turn-out of French delicacies, both on the show field and in Building Y's Invitational Display. While the bulk of French cars attending were Citroëns, Peugeots and Renaults, there were some real rarities to see.
Hemmings Find of the Day – 1989 Audi 200
What I wouldn't give to spend a couple hours (days/weeks) studying this 1989 Audi 200 Quattro Trans-Am car. Really, it's the same reason I'd love to study any race car – everything has a function and a purpose – but this car in particular actually succeeded in its purpose, which makes it all the more inspiring. From the seller's description:
1989 Audi 200 Quattro Trans Am race car ID# 44JA000013. This car was purchased directly from Audi Sport in Ingolstadt, Germany. The car was built for the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) Trans Am Championship. This is the vehicle that won the championship, driven by Hurley Haywood.

Audi quattro: Feiern 30 Jahre!
You remember that all-wheel drive sedan that you parked next to at the supermarket yesterday? Perhaps the all-wheel drive "crossovers," minivans and sporty coupes that surrounded you on the highway on the way into work this morning? Yes, yes, what's the point, you ask. Well, what do these cars all have in common? Audi's quattro, that's what.
While the 1966-1971 Jensen Interceptor FF takes the credit for being the first high-performance four-wheel drive GT (and with anti-lock brakes to boot!), a mere 320 of them were built, making them more of a historic curiosity than a game changer. It was Audi who developed the first practical continuously engaged four-wheel drive system for high performance road cars, and they called the system "quattro."
Developed on Audi's 80 (4000 in the USA) platform and powered by the longitudinally-mounted turbocharged 2,144cc five-cylinder and five-speed manual gearbox of the 200 (5000 Turbo over here), the production Quattro Coupe was first shown to a stunned media and public at the 1980 Geneva motor show, and it underlined the company's slogan, Vorsprung durch Technik, or Advancement through Technology.
Happy 100th Birthday, Audi!
July 16, 2009, marks the 100th anniversary of the day that August Horch founded August Horch Automobilwerke GmbH in Zwickau, Germany, after leaving his Horch & Cie. Motorwagen Werke due to a dispute with his supervisory board. Within a short period, he renamed the company after a variation of his last name – Horch means "Hark," or listen, which translates to "Audi" in Latin - making it Audi Automobilwerke.
Early cars like the 1919 Type C were conventional for the day:
But Audi became known as a trend-setter early in its history with the introduction of Germany's first left-hand drive car, the 1921 Audi 14/50 hp Type K.
Audiwerke AG became part of the DKW family in 1928, and Audi developed a small front-wheel drive DKW car for 1931. DKW would also be known for their motorcycles, like this 1939 250 SS racer:
Audi Celebrates a Quarter-Century of Quattro
To celebrate a quarter-century of Quattro technology, Audi will produce 250 special edition S4 models to be called the S4 25quattro. All these special S4s will have an Avus Silver exterior with front and rear bumpers trimmed with carbon fiber on the front bumper edge and the rear spoiler.
As with all S4s, power is provided by a 4.2-liter V-8 engine producing 340hp at 7,000 rpm with a peak torque of 302-lbs. ft. at 3,500 rpm. Audi claims that the S4 sedan does 0-60 mph in just 5.3 seconds with a six-speed manual transmission and a specially tuned exhaust. All 250 S4 25quattro editions
will be equipped with the six-speed manual as standard.
The S4 25quattro lists for $60,250. Want to drive one for free? Audi is offering a two-year lease of an S4 25quattro as the grand prize in an online sweepstakes beginning August 18. For a chance to win, visit www.audiusa.com/25quattro (full contest details appear online).
If you go to www.25quattro.comyou can relive 25 years of Quattro promotional stunts, including Harald Demuth's memorable 1986 run up a 37.9-degree ski jump in Finland.

Bed room and bath room are well designed, giving relaxing atmosphere. Quiet. Comfortable bed. Free wifi at all times. Nice staff.
No views from the windows.
Charmingly restored vintage hotel room with a small dressing room and dressing table, sitting area and kitchen, very comfortable bed, all perfectly appointed with modern facilities. Great dinner of seared salmon over arugula salad plus an excellent martini. I couldn't have asked for more!
Bartenders at Bar, The Porters especially Keith and the overall hospitality and service
All staff were welcoming and helpful. Accommodation great! Would book at the Hotel Lombardy again if returning to Washington.
A hotel with comfort, charm and character. Very nice ambiance and a good alternative to the sterile feel of chain hotels
The ventilation system was quite noisy but not intrusive
Dinner was superb at a very reasonable price.
Bath tub was slow draining which made for a very slippery shower.
Room was beside supply closet and one of the days the room was not cleaned.
location - a 2 blocks to metro, staff very friendly and hotel provided good value with bar and meal services
our room had some early morning noise due to rear lane dumpster collection
The location was so convenient, room spacious, bed and pillows very comfortable and staff attentive.
The courteous service from staff and the location, very good breakfast and cleanliness of room
Price a bit high, internet signal at times was not very strong
I liked the staff, the small size, the room and decorations in the room, the bathroom and fixtures in the bathroom, the style and location of the hotel
The air conditioning was difficult to operate and did not work properly, and there were no vegan or vegetarian choices on the room service menu
Location, the front office staff, the wonderful room and comfortable bed.
The housekeeping personnel came in around 4 pm as I was cleaning up after my marathon. Way too late.
Our suite at The Hotel Lombardy for an overnight stay was immediately next to and across the hall from rooms used by a wedding party. Apparently, after the evening reception, the entire wedding party and other wedding guests retreated to our neighboring rooms for late, loud continued celebration. Their fun lasted to wee hours, and our nearly sleepless night left us infuriated and exhausted. The hotel's front desk was unhelpful as we were informed that the hotel was sold out and "guests use the hotel for a variety of reasons."
5 min walk to the White house
location food staff would come back because it is close to my grandson at GWU
did not like there was not a lobby to sit in. move reception down the hall a bit and open up that area to the very small entrance which is below
Cleanliness. Bed was comfortable. Location very goid.
Air conditioning was very noisy.
Very nice staffs, nice location, very close to White House and the other sites.
Very elegant, classy & 1920s scenery in the bar- theatrical atmosphere!
Location, kitchen. Friendliness of staff
Nothing. Everything was great
colonial style albeit a little dated convenience to tourist sights
parking at $36 plus tax per night expensive very poor wifi in room
Lots of TV stations, quiet, staff very accommodating and helpful, dimmers on light switch.
No safety bars in bathroom
Great location. Restaurant meal was delicious with great service. Bed was comfortable but the pillows were hard.
The lights in bathroon and vanity were very dim, the coffee maker leaked all over and so did the refridgerator. They knocked in the afternoon and then came right in before you could get to the door, twice ( very annoying). I felt the 35 per day parking charge was excessive.
the Lombardy is well located to walk to The White House, monuments, parks, the Metro and great places to eat. The room was very attractive and comfortable, and the staff was friendly and helpful. I would stay at Hotel Lombardy for my next trip to DC.
Good bed, clean and friendly
My room was at the back and VERY early in the morning, each morning I was awoken to the sound of metal on metal as bins were emptied. Not good!
Staff so friendly Location so good, near the White House, two metro stations very near by, a very short walk to Georgetown (recommend going there). Room cleaned everyday Free Wi-Fi There is a free safe in the room Whole Foods right around the corner I slept well every night I think that if people are saying there is something wrong with this hotel, there is probably just some personal stuff going on. Tip top hotel!
AC is loud, but I guess they usually are Pillows are a bit too thick
