Audie Award Nominee, Short Stories/Collections, 2013
Universally acclaimed from the time it was first published in 1968, Slouching Towards Bethlehem has been admired for decades as a stylistic masterpiece. Academy Award-winning actress Diane Keaton (Annie Hall, The Family Stone) performs these classic essays, including the title piece, which will transport the listener back to a unique time and place: the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco during the neighborhood's heyday as a countercultural center.
This is Joan Didion's first work of nonfiction, offering an incisive look at the mood of 1960s America and providing an essential portrait of the Californian counterculture. She explores the influences of John Wayne and Howard Hughes, and offers ruminations on the nature of good and evil in a Death Valley motel room. Taking its title from W.B. Yeats' poem "The Second Coming", the essays in Slouching Towards Bethlehem all reflect, in one way or another, that "the center cannot hold."
Slouching Towards Bethlehem is part of Audible's A-List Collection, featuring the world's most celebrated actors narrating distinguished works of literature that each star had a hand in selecting. For more great books performed by Hollywood's finest, click here.
©1968 Joan Didion (P)2012 Audible, Inc.
"Diane Keaton does an outstanding job of conveying an era and a place. Her narration is clear, well timed, and wonderfully consistent with the author's voice. Her ability to convey Didion's musings and gentle skepticism add much. Didion's style remains extraordinary." (AudioFile)
"Didion deserves better."
Joan Didion's writing is fabulous, insightful, spare. She deserves much better treatment than she gets from Diane Keaton, whom I love as an actress, but who is NOT a good reader. Her mispronunciations are legion, and it is painfully obvious that she is doing this reading cold. But frankly, I blame Audible's obvious desire to whip through these recordings rather than taking the time to produce something flawless--which both the author and the reader deserve. Would it kill them to go back and dub a few mistakes? Didion deserves better.
Still worth a listen, though, because even though Keaton's not so hot, Didion is that good.
"Diane Keaton takes California out of Joan Didion"
Book: absolutely. Audiobook: not at ALL.
Didion's amazing ability to describe time, place, characters.
Let me count the ways! San Bernardino (first story's setting, mentioned in the second sentence and about a dozen times after that) has never been called "San Bern-dino." Merced is not "MURSE-ed." Sausalito is not "Souse-alito." These are real towns, important to the script (if you will). Correct pronunciation should not be optional!
Diane Keaton isn't the first I've heard pronounce Washington "Warshington," but ... really? In a professional production? Was no one directing? Editing? Audible should be embarrassed.
This recording needs to be corrected if Audible continues to sell it. I have bought and listened to dozens of audiobooks; none has been this bad. As another reviewer noted, Didion deserved better. So do Audible's customers. I had to stop listening and go buy the paperback book before Diane Keaton completely ruined it for me.
"Buy the book. Avoid the audio."
I had to stop listening after about 5 minutes. I've never been to California - I've lived in Missouri my whole life. But I know that "San Bernardino" is not pronounced: "San Berdino." I suppose it's possible Keaton knows something I don't about the way the locals pronounce things in casual conversation. But at *best* this performance would be something like replacing "you" with "ya'll." It's grating. Language matters to Didion:"I am still committed to the idea that the ability to think for one's self depends upon one's mastery of the language, and I am not optimistic about children who will settle for saying, to indicate that their mother and father do not live together, that they come from 'a broken home.'"Her language is, in my view, butchered here. Shame on Audible for publishing the audiobook in this state. Buy the book - the prose is excellent. I'm getting my money back for the audio version.
"This just doesn't seem to work as an audiobook."
I really like Diane Keaton as an actress, and I think that made my disappointment in this audiobook more difficult to swallow. I really wanted to enjoy it, but it just never pulled me in. I have a long commute; however, when I have a good book to listen to, I look forward to the drive. I never looked forward to my ride and finally gave up on the book.
I'm a 60 yr old former English major and grad student. It's been fascinating revisiting the books I studied in my 20s, read aloud to me.
"Who'd have guessed Diane Keaton can't read?"
Wonderfully wrought essays took me back to the 60's, thanks to Didion's sharp eyed portraits and ear for dialogue. However, what is Diane Keaton's excuse?? She mispronounces so many words so consistently it's as if she has a speech impediment (maybe she does). She omits any interior syllable with an "er" sound: "San Berdino;" "vetinarian." This happened so often it was distracting. I actually had to check to see if all these years I had misread San Bernardino CA and it really didn't have that interior "nar" syllable. I have recently read Didion's essays about the deaths of her husband and daughter, and reading her first collection after her latest was an interesting juxtaposition. For all the dystopia she noticed and chronicled in the 60's, she has nevertheless been able to live a good, productive and creative life. She is a treasure.
"personal journalism...reporter of the self"
i've always found 'personal journalism' something of a contradiction...hunter thompson, joan didion, tom wolfe, etc., and often can't find the bright line between it and fiction... that being said, a few of the 'stories' in this collection are golden reflections of our time, but most are simply the personal insights into how this writer receives the world...ms keaton's reading is entirely sympathetic and a pleasure to listen to...what puzzles me is whether she's ever met a foreign word (non-English) that has been adopted by our vernacular that she can pronounce with something that resembles its source language.
"slouching towards bethlehem highly recommended"
Having grown up in California in the 50's and 60's this was a wonderful walk down memory lane. Joan style and content was totally engaging and true to the time. Highly recommend!
I haven't heard any other audio books narrated by Diane Keaton, but I must say, I would listen again and again, just because she did a wonderful job. Her speach was clear and, unlike some narrators, she wasn't overly dramatic. Her tone is clear and easy to listen to.
"Still a classic"
This new production brings the book to life in a fresh and relate-able way. Diane Keaton's performance is dead on (although she does get some place names wrong, which is odd for someone who has spent so much time in California.)
A collection of published and personal pieces about life in America during the 60's (it has nothing to do with the Middle East) the book still offers valid insights for a modern reader. She simultaneously provides a time capsule view into the past while reminding us that certain complaints are perennial as the seasons. I found the piece responding to complaints about how Hollywood doesn't make movies like they used to particularly funny.
Diane Keaton's reading captures the thoughtful prose and inflects a very slight condescension which I think represents the material very accurately.
"Brilliant Writing"
Yes. Didion's writing is unmatched in its clarity, detail and wittiness. The subject matter is sometimes mundane and dated (Joan Baez, Las Vegas weddings, etc). However, the text is still engaging due to the excellence of Didion's prose. This is an especially good read for a writer who wants to see what can be done with everyday life using exceptional prose.
Any collection of essays by E.B. White, including classics such as "Once More to the Lake." Both writers are exceptional in capturing the details of everyday life and relating them to important ideas about human nature and our culture.
I love Diane's voice and reading style. She's great on screen or via audio.

Escape the city with this exclusive tour of the rustic retreats built in upstate New York by J.P. Morgan, the Vanderbilts and others.
They were the wilderness retreats of America's wealthiest families, sprawling log palaces hidden within 9,000 square miles of rugged peaks, deep valleys and pure mountain lakes. For those who vacationed in these spectacular compounds, "roughing it" meant plush railway cars, private bowling alleys and legions of servants.
America's Castles invites you to explore the grand Adirondack camps. Meet the visionary railroad heir William West Durant, whose ruggedly elegant Pine Knot sparked a taste for rustic style among the "Newport Crowd" and gave birth to a uniquely American architecture. Visit J.P. Morgan's Camp Uncas, where the fireplace is large enough to waltz in. And get a coveted invitation to spend Christmas at the Vanerbilt's grand Sagamore, a sportsman's paradise that was more technologically advanced than many New York City townhouses.
It's an exclusive tour of the most remarkable private lodges ever built.

SAAC team prepares to influence students
South Adams student Maddie Graber is much more aware these days of the effects of drug and alcohol usage on the lives and health of those around her.
"It's really sad the way that drugs and alcohol affect people," Graber said in connection with a conference she attended at the McMillen Center for Health Education in Fort Wayne.
Fourteen members of the South Adams Substance Abuse Awareness team attended a three-hour alcohol, drug and tobacco prevention training seminar at the health education center.
Training focused on how bodies work, how using alcohol, drugs or tobacco affects bodies in the short term and the long term effects of their use.
Those topics covered included your body and alcohol, hangovers, binge drinking versus daily drinking, women and alcohol, long-term effects of alcohol abuse, the effects of drugs and alcohol on health and fetal alcohol syndrome.
Graber said the information will be helpful in starting a middle school SAAC team and in helping working with young students in understanding the dangers of drug, alcohol and tobacco usage.
"I learned things I didn't know," said Klayton Hinshaw. "I learned how women suffer more from drinking. I learned how drinking can affect your liver. I didn't realize how bad that drinking could destroy your liver.
Women who drink have a greater chance of developing liver damage, brain damage, heart disease and breast cancer.
"Alcohol affects women differently than men," said Hinshaw. "Women will suffer damage sooner than me; damage to a woman's body will be more severe than to a man's body."
"It gave me more knowledge about what to say to people when I talk to them about alcohol and drinking," continued Hinshaw.
Hinshaw was impressed with the effect of drinking on the brain, especially the way it can start causing brain damage in heavy drinkers at age 18.
In addition, alcohol immediately affects the brain's ability to control behavior and body functions.
Other topics discussed included the fact that about 160,000 people a year die from lung cancer, which is more than the number of deaths from colon and rectal, breast and prostate cancer combined.
Those teaching the seminar emphasized the harmfulness of smoking to pregnancies such as damage to the baby's body, due to the fact that nicotine can reduce the baby's supply of oxygen.
Smoking more than doubles the risk of stillbirth, premature delivery, low weight birth, heart defects and learning disabilities. In addition, drinking can contribute to fetal alcohol syndrome.
"I mainly don't drink or use drugs because I care about my health and I care about my family," said Graber. "We are close as a family; I am happy with the family that I came from. This is one of the things I stand for and I want to be a role model to those around me."

Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama scored an easy victory Tuesday in the District of Columbia, gaining three electoral votes from the city where he's lived for the past four years.
With all precincts reporting, Obama carried 91 percent of the vote. That's one percentage point less than he received in 2008, when his margin was the largest for a presidential candidate in the city's history.
Democrats outnumber Republicans 11 to 1 in the nation's capital, and the Democratic candidate has carried the district in every presidential election since 1964, the first year the city's residents voted for president.
Although the city is no longer majority-black, African-Americans still outnumber any other ethnic group. Four years ago, residents partied all night on the streets to celebrate the election of the nation's first black president. Late Tuesday night, after Obama won his second term, crowds gathered to celebrate outside the White House and on U Street Northwest, once the cultural hub of black Washington.
Turnout was 50.6 percent, including more than 50,000 residents who voted early.
Andrea Carr, a 40-year-old stay-at-home mom who voted for Obama, said she didn't think Romney's policies would benefit her.
"I think that if Romney gets into office, he is only going to represent people of a higher class," she said.
Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton, a Democrat who has represented the district in Congress since 1991, easily won an 11th term.
Among the races for local office, only one was competitive: the race for an at- large seat on the D.C. Council reserved for minority parties. Challenger David Grosso defeated incumbent and fellow independent Michael A. Brown, who was seeking a second term.
D.C. Council Chairman Phil Mendelson, a Democrat, took over for Kwame Brown in June after Brown pleaded guilty to bank fraud and resigned. He defeated frequent candidate Calvin Gurley in a special election to fill out the remainder of Brown's term.
Councilmember Marion Barry, 76, a former four-term mayor, won his third consecutive term representing the poorest of the city's wards. Councilmember Yvette Alexander defeated Republican Ronald Moten, and councilmembers Muriel Bowser and Jack Evans were unopposed.
Democratic Councilmember Vincent Orange held onto the other at-large seat being contested Tuesday.
For Michael Brown, it was a nightmarish campaign season. His personal financial difficulties were heavily scrutinized, and in September, he revealed that more than $113,000 had gone missing from his campaign account earlier in the summer _ the entire balance at the time. Brown said he was a victim of theft and fired his treasurer, but no charges have been filed.
The missing money left Grosso with a major financial advantage, and the reform- minded candidate tallied a series of influential endorsements. Still, Brown _ the son of the late former Commerce Secretary Ronald Brown _ is well-liked by many district voters and ran as a champion of the disadvantaged.
Paul Malvey, 66, a retired financial economist, voted for Grosso because he believes the council needs an overhaul. He called it "so embarrassing" that Barry, who was convicted of a drug charge while serving as mayor, was still on the council.
"I think Grosso is better because he's not the other two," Malvey said, referring to Brown and Orange. "He seems like he has his head on his shoulders, legally."

The biblical saga of the Earth-cleansing deluge is one of the most well-known and symbolic stories in Western tradition. Could this legend be based on real events?
- MEGA DISASTERS explores the worst of what could happen.
- Stunning computer graphics and actual footage combine to create convincing pictures of the risks faced by U.S. cities.
- Explore the true events that may have inspired the biblical Flood.
It has happened before, and it could happen again. What makes storms, earthquakes and other events into natural disasters is not how they occur, but where they strike. MEGA DISASTERS asks the what ifs? no one ever wants to face. A masterful blend of actual footage, computer graphics and interviews with leading scientists and public safety experts explores the outer limits of what could happen if everything went wrong.
Could the biblical story of Noah be true? Did real disasters inspire the story of Earth's 40-day submersion, the ultimate "do-over?" Recent core sample discoveries point to a series of events that could have lead to climactic conditions that washed out entire land masses, even destroying complete civilizations.
MEGA DISASTERS examines one such cataclysm in great detail: 8000 years ago the Mediterranean Sea, pushed by rising sea levels worldwide, exploded through the Bosporus Strait with devastating results. This ancient inundation may have been the greatest natural disaster in the history of humankind. MEGA DISASTERS reconstructs this massive flood, which claimed an area twice the size of Ireland, and utilizes vivid 3D animation to plunge viewers deep into the experience of this epic catastrophe.
NOAH'S GREAT FLOOD, whether apocryphal or literal, is the ultimate tale of man vs. nature (and God, for that matter), and MEGA DISASTERS shows how it may have really happened!

andre1969 Posts: 22,165if that '53-54 Packard influenced GM in any way? I know GM was considered a styling leader in the 50's for the most part, but that rear look like it could have been an inspiration for Pontiac in later years, and those taillights are definitely late 50's Cadillac-ish. In fact, I was having trouble identifying the car, because to me it looked like a cross between a Pontiac and Cadillac!
I don't think anyone was paying much attention to Packard in 1954. It was already dying. They sold very few cars annually, (calender years sales were only 27,593 cars TOTAL) so as an automaker, it wouldn't have been a tempting role model.

Greetings -- I recently came across a picture taken in 1927. It shows my parents and two friends standing beside a car. Only the back part of the car is visible. Can anyone identify it? The image is on my web site:
FYI: Safari or Firefox work better than Internet Explorer with this site.
Thanks very much...
there's hardly anything visually to go on here...all I can say about it is that it is a car made earlier than 1927, perhaps even 10 years earlier, that it is a "phaeton" or "touring" style, and that it is not an expensive car. It has no windows, only side curtains, and wooden artillery wheels, which place it around early 1920s, late teens IMO.
MODERATOR --Need help with anything? Click on my name!
Yeah, virtually impossible to tell, but I can tell it a less expensive car probably from 1920-25. The last couple years of Model T production had a curved cowl like that, and it could have been fitted with those artillery wheels, and the car looks pretty small...so it could be a T. The curved area between the body and running board is also very Model T-ish.
I didn't originally see it, but I right clicked and now I see it. Here's the URL for anyone else: http://www.skyranchdanes.com/Old_car.jpg
I am pretty certain it is not a Chevrolet, it is a larger car for the period - the hood and cowl are fairly long. That hubcap logo seems familiar, but I can't put my finger on it. But now I can see the body, I am fairly sure it is from 1922-24.
It might be an Essex---there were very very few closed cars in the early 20s, and Essex was one of the first in the "closed coupe" style--unless that's a 4-door.
I was wondering if that fancy chromework on the running board might give a clue. The hubcab insignia does look like either a triangle or a Lion's head maybe???
MODERATOR --Need help with anything? Click on my name!
texases Posts: 5,698No, I think it's a 2 door, and could well be an Essex. The handle you're seeing is for the front door, there's no handle or door outline for a rear door.
Here's a pic of a '26 Essex, looks lots like the mystery car, especially the headlights, although I know they're not unique:
Ah youre right on the door, and the two tone drum headlights are the same, but as you say, not unique at the time.
The Essex logo was a six sided shape from what I can find, the one on the hubcap here appears to be a triangle. Hmmm
Although the Essex connection gives me a thought - a Hudson of the same vintage. Same corporate family. This 1922 Hudson appears to share some traits
You will find very few 2D closed cars with artillery wheels---this configuration and vintage does narrow the field.
Of course, there *were* over 2000 separate makes of car in the USA, and when you come up with a regional assembled car, that was made for 3 years in only one city---it gets tough unless you're doing this as a curator or hobbyist 24/7.

Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson wins 2012 NFL MVP award
Published On: Feb 02 2013 09:02:47 PM EST
Updated On: Feb 03 2013 03:12:45 PM EST

Running back Adrian Peterson of the Minnesota Vikings was named the AP 2012 NFL Most Valuable Player. The award was announced Saturday night at "NFL Honors."
Peterson's highly successful season following major knee surgery has earned him The Associated Press 2012 NFL Most Valuable Player Award, beating out Peyton Manning for the honor. Manning's return from four neck surgeries netted him Comeback Player of the Year, reports ESPN.
In addition to MVP, Peterson also took home Offensive Player of the Year on Saturday.
Peterson finished with 2,097 yards, a mere 9 yards short of breaking Eric Dickerson's rushing record.

Red Bull team principal Christian Horner has admitted that the race to replace Mark Webber is "probably" a straight fight between Daniel Ricciardo and Kimi Raikkonen.
Webber will quit Formula One at the end of the season and Red Bull initially revealed that the trio of Ricciardo, Raikkonen and Jean-Eric Vergne were on the shortlist to replace the Australian.
Asked by Sky Sports News if the battle for succession was now a straight race between Raikkonen and Ricciardo, Horner replied: "Essentially, probably."
Former World Champion Raikkonen remains the firm favourite to become Sebastian Vettel's team-mate next season, but Ricciardo's stock has risen quite a bit in recent weeks and Red Bull have even added him to their line-up for the Young Driver Test at Silverstone.
Horner, though, admits Raikkonen is in a different class.
"Kimi's track record speaks for itself and he's a Championship contender as we speak," he added. "We're in a fortunate position in that not only are we attracting fantastic drivers like Kimi but we've also got the opportunity to look at the drivers we have been nurturing in the likes of Daniel.
"We get paid based on where we are in the Constructors' Championship so therefore we want the fastest and best drivers we can get in the car. We'll take our time to make sure that whoever fills Mark's shoes - and they are big shoes to fill - is the right choice for the team."
Ricciardo will get his "big audition" for the Red Bull seat on Thursday afternoon when he samples the new Pirelli tyres in the RB9.
"We're very keen to have a look at Daniel as a prospect for next year," Horner said. "Obviously there is a great deal of interest in the seat, but it's an opportunity to have a look at Daniel and for him to do some of our tyre-testing work in our RBR car. It's a great opportunity for him."

Toodledo Dark
Score: 0
This is really the continuation of some thoughts from another thread which may have been in "questions", but I'm not sure, can't find it, and it probably fits better here anyway.
It was mentioned that a dark background for Toodledo would be nice to have for tired eyes, as well as battery savings. The Inky theme is nice, but not truly a dark theme. I found a Firefox addon-based solution that I have been using for some time, but hesitated to post since it has one major drawback, but I have been unable find anything better. You can achieve a similar look simply through Firefox's "fonts and colors" settings, but I cannot find a way for them to be page-specific.
What I am using is a Firefox addon called "Invert Colors". It is listed as experimental, but I have had no glitches with it. The one problem is that addons are not allowed to run while a page is loading, so your wonderfull dark screen will brighten up to normal for a second every time it reloads. However, it is better than nothing IMO.
There are a number of different ways of setting it up with different default Toodledo themes, but here is what I am doing:
Account settings:
1)Set the Toodledo theme to Inky.
Invert Colors settings
2)Set the Toodledo page to "Always Invert Colors" so you don't even have to have the addon turned on, and can use it just for Toodledo for example.
3)Set the Toodledo page to "Never hide background images" so you don't lose check boxes, etc.
That's it. You can actually turn Invert Colors off now if you don't want to use it for other sites.
I would be interested to know if anyone uses Stylish, and if so, knows of any good downloadable dark styles that work well on Toodledo. However, I wonder if, as another addon, Stylish will also cease to function during reloads.
I would also be interested to know if anyone has any other tricks for achieving a "Toodledo Dark", Firefox-based or otherwise. I wish the guys who make "Google Redesigned" would do a style for Toodledo.
Edit: BTW, here is the developer's site: http://shadowlord13.googlepages.com/invertColors.html
And of course you can also find it on the official addons page.

Cool! Thanks for the tip. Another extension that might be helpful is "Stylish". You can create custom stylesheets for individual pages.
I don't mind the light theme too bad, but it would be nice to have a dark option available natively.
Score: 0
Thanks Vin. I actually mentioned Stylish toward the end of my above post, but it is a very long post so I understand your overlooking it. I just have no experience creating style sheets, and went for the simpler solution, but Stylish may be even better.
Also, I think a native dark theme would be awesome. It was mentioned in the other thread from which this stuff came, but I can't find. I think it just has to be very low on Toodledo's priority list because it is purely cosmetic, and they seem like "function" people.

Great post Anders, got me thinking.
You can override colors within Firefox.
Options -> Content -> Colors. Uncheck 'Allow pages to use their own colors'
The default is cream on black. Perfect, and quick to switch back. I believe this is also possible on IE & Opera as well.
Score: 1
As for the battery savings part, I believe it's the other way around.
LCD uses electricity to tint/darken the light emitted from the backlight.
So if you were to create a battery-saving theme, it would be whitish all over (Actually, Sony did so for one of their new laptops)
Though I'd still opt for the easy-on-the-eyes, don't be surprised if all the dark-theming ends up in a shortened battery life.

It appears you are correct. Scientific American
I had heard of the 2002 paper, but should have figured technology changes very quickly.
However the easy-on-the-eyes aspect of it is more important to me anyway, and at least that article I linked, the difference between black and white is not very significant, so I don't think I would be likely to see any worthwile benifit from a light theme.
Anyway, thanks for setting me straight.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt
My name is Taylor!
Facts about Taylor
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Black & White Or Tuxedo
- Age: Young
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
Taylor's Info...
I am already spayed and up to date with shots.
Young and very playful.
Other Pets at Project PURR Animal Rescue, Inc.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Taylor, a Mobile Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Mobile, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Mobile.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Mobile already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Mobile breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Mobile paves the way for another one to be saved.

ler looked upon Manuel with commiseration, and handed him a chair to sit down on. The poor oakley half wire sunglasses sale fellow was excited and fatigued, for he had eaten nothing that day, and been treated more like a brute than a human being from the time, he left the ship until he arrived at the jail. He readily accepted the kind offer, and commenced to tell the story of his treatment.
You need' not tell me,--I know too much of that man already. It has long been a mystery to me why he is retained in office.--
Here Dunn interrupted. Sure it's yer master I'd obey and not yerself, an' I'd do what I'd plase with prisoners, and, it's his business and not yeers. If ye had yer way, sure you'd be makin' white men of every nigger that ye turned a key upon.
Give me none of your insolence, said the jailer. You have no authority beyond my door. Your brutal treatment to prisoners has caused me an immense deal of trouble-more than my paltry pay would induce me to stay for. Suppose you were indicted for these outrages? What would be the result? asked the jailer.
Sure it's meself could answer for the sheriff, without yer bothering yerself. I'd not work for yer, but for him; and he's yer master anyhow, and knows all about it. Give me the receipt, and that's all I'd ax yer. When a nigger don't mind me, I just makes him feel the delight of a hickory stick.
Yes, if you had the shame of a man in you, you'd not make oakley frogskins sunglasses sale a beast of yourself with liquor, and treat these poor stewards as if they were dogs, said the jailer.
Indeed, ye might learn a thing or two if ye was a politician like meself, and belonged to the secession party. An' if his honor the sheriff-for he's a dacent man-knew ye'd be preachin' in that shape, ye wouldn't keep the jail f'nent the morning. Be letting me out, and make much of the nigger; ye have him there.
The jailer unlocked the door and allowed him to pass out, with a pertinent rebuke. This was but a trifling affair in Dunn's ear, for he knew his master's feelings too well, and was backed by him in his most intolerable proceedings. Returning oakley scalpel sunglasses to the office, he looked at the commitment, and then again at Manuel. This is a 'contrary to law' case, I see, Mr. Manuel; you are a likely fellow too, to come within that, said he.
Yes. If I understand him right, he's a shipwrecked sailor, belonging to a foreign vessel that was driven in
tinctive, universal distrust of the press. 'I never believe anything I read in the papers.' Of course, that is both false and silly. But the feeling is there; and it has to be reckoned with one day. From this arises an injustice, that the few papers which are really upright, honest, and faithful to their own standards, are tainted in the public mind with the double-dealing of the others. Such as The Patriot.
You use The Patriot for your purposes, Io pointed out.
When it stands for what I believe right. I only wish I could trust it.
Then you _really_ feel that you can't trust Mr. Banneker?
Ah; we're back to that! thought Enderby with uneasiness. Aloud he said: It's a very pretty problem whether a writer who shares the profits of a hypocritical and dishonest policy can maintain his own professional independence and virtue. I gravely doubt it.
I don't, said Io, and there was pride in her avowal.
My dear, said the Judge gravely, what does it all mean? Are you letting yourself become interested in Errol Banneker?
Io raised clear and steady eyes to the concerned regard of her old friend. If I ever marry again, I shall marry him.
You're not going to divorce poor Delavan? asked the other quickly.
No. I shall play the game through, was the quiet reply.
For a space Willis Enderby sat thinking. Does Banneker know your--your intentions?
You mustn't let him, Io.
He won't know the intention. He may know the--the feeling back of it. A slow and glorious flush rose in her face, making her eyes starry. I don't know oakley frogskins sunglasses sale that I can keep it from him, Cousin Billy. I don't even know that I want to. I'm an honest sort of idiot, you know.
God grant that he may prove as honest! he half whispered.
Presently Banneker, bearing a glass of discount oakley pit boss sunglasses champagne and some pate sandwiches for Io, supplanted the lawyer.
Are you the devotee of toil that common report believes, Ban? she asked him lazily. They say that you write editorials with one hand and welcome your guests with the other.
Not quite that, he answered. To-night I'm not thinking of oakley scalpel sunglasses work. I'm not thinking of anything but you. It's very wonderful, your being here.
But I want you to think of work. I want to see you in the very act. Won't you write an editorial for me?
He shook his head. This late? That would be cruelty to my secretary.
I'll take it down for you. I'm f

light from within, she looked steadily out of the window. All without was bright, moncler men christmas edition down jacket in black and cold, and beautiful. White fleecy clouds drifted about the heavens, like so many phantom barks upon the deep blue sea.
It's cold without and cold within, she muttered, and then, as if startled by some sudden resolve, she turned from the window back to a small escritoire, saying:
Yes, I'll delay no longer. I must answer Lizzie's letter and tell her all. My duties for the coming week will be pressing, allowing me no opportunity for writing, equal to that of the present.
Then she wrote: QUEEN CITY, January 20, 185-.
MY OWN CHERISHED FRIEND: To-night from my casement I looked out upon the cold, bright world, wrapped in moonlight, and as I gazed at the far-off misty horizon, the distance called to mind my far-off friend at Melrose--recalled to mind, too, the fact that your last welcome letter has for an unwonted length of time remained unanswered. Your letter that came on the new year, came as the flowers of spring, always fresh uk moncler jackets and beautiful. It has been neglected from the inevitable press of circumstances by which I have been surrounded, which neglect, I feel assured, you will appreciate and moncler women pop star down coat light red forgive, when I have detailed the following facts.
My sister Sarah is to be married in a week. This approaching event has been the cause of my restricted time, pressing out of sight, and even out of memory, all letter-writing.
Yes, dear Lizzie, the long-expected nuptials are actually about to be celebrated, and all our household, except myself, are in a fever of excitement and delight.
My step-mother is ecstatic over the success of her scheming, and even condescends to be kind to me,-to me, Lizzie, whom she has so long and so faithfully despised.
My father, too, seems happy over this alliance, knowing Mark's excellent character and business qualifications, and appreciating the connection with the rabbi's family. Mark himself appears happy in the hope of securing Sarah for his wife. But as to Sarah, I can scarcely divine her feelings; she is too young and light-hearted fully to comprehend the step before her. She seems delighted with the occasion that bestows upon her so many handsome presents; and beyond this I think she sc

Howdy, Stranger!
It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
It's Time to Play "WHO AM I"?
You are half right. I am from the '50s. I should mention that calling me an 'intermediate' may be somewhat misleading, since that term was not widely used at the time. However, it is true that I had both a smaller and a larger sibling.
2009 BMW 335i, 2003 Corvette cnv, 2001 Jaguar XK cnv, 1985 MB 380SE (the best of the lot)
You get the latest gold star, Andre. I am indeed the 1957 Nash Rambler Rebel. As you said, I was considered a compact at the time, but I had a big brother (the Nash Ambassador) and a little brother (OK class, who can be the first to name my little brother?)
2009 BMW 335i, 2003 Corvette cnv, 2001 Jaguar XK cnv, 1985 MB 380SE (the best of the lot)
Despite being a mere repaint of an existing wagon, with a few very minor changes to the suspension and tires, I singlehandedly turned my brand around, from heading for the grave to solidly prosperous for most of 15 years. I also spawned a little brother that quickly became the most popular trim in his own model line for many years.
Shucks, aint it funny what people will fall for with good marketing? Who am I?
2013 Civic SI, 2009 Outback Sport 5-spd (stick)
When I debuted in 1948 my maker thought I might sell a few hundred copies, but in fact I created a world sensation. I was a winning combination of styling, value and performance, and was, in fact, the fastest production car in the world, for a price that any middle class man could afford. I set the automotive world on its ear.
I am valuable today but nothing like a vintage Ferrari or a rare muscle car. I guess this is because i was made in rather large numbers for the type of car I was.
Some find me a bit of a bear to drive, but I am still considered one of the world's most attractive cars.
MODERATOR --Need help with anything? Click on my name!
My model was sold for more than 30 years in the U.S., but isn't any more. I was built in my model's most popular year, when the truck engine under my hood was fuel injected for the first time and around the time I got an edgy new body style. A few years after I was built my model line went FWD, and it was never the same after that.
Who am I?
2013 Civic SI, 2009 Outback Sport 5-spd (stick)
My first guess would be a Chevy Impala? Originally sold from 1958-85, revived in FWD form for 2000. The truck engine was the 348, later enlarged to 409. I think the Impala's most popular year was 1965? I have a feeling I'm off base though, as I don't remember the 348/409 ever being fuel injected.
As for the Deville? Believe it or not, that name's been around close to 60 years! It first came out in 1949, as the name for Cadillac's first pillarless hardtop coupe. For 1950, all Cadillac coupes went hardtop, and the Coupe DeVille became a higher trim level. For 1956, they added a Sedan Deville hardtop sedan, and for 1959, DeVille became a whole model line. I forget now when they phased the DeVille name out, but by 2007 it was called DTS.
Okay then, I'm gonna guess a 1982 Celica?
Okay, as soon as I typed that, something else popped into my mind...what about the 1984 Corolla SR-5 coupe? The Corolla went FWD for the most part in 1984, but the coupe stayed RWD, through 1987 I think. I don't know much about Toyota's engines, but maybe they pulled the SR-5's out of their pickup truck line?

What is on your kids' lists this holiday season? Without a "must have" toy at the stores, we want to hear what the young ones are asking for this year. Tell us on the WTOP Talkback line at 877-222-1035. Post a comment in this story, comment on WTOP's Facebook Page or use #WTOP on Twitter.
WASHINGTON - What's the hottest toy for the holidays this year? Well, there doesn't seem to be one.
A recent article from Fortune says retailers haven't had a "must have" toy on their shelves since the Furby hit stores in 1998, which raked in more than 40 million sales during its first three years.
Instead, toymakers are playing it safe and turning out revamped versions of the classics, such as Hasbro's Easy Bake Oven, My Little Pony and Mr. Potato Head.
The lack of new toys on the market shows. The article reports that toy sales is expected to have its worse year in more than 30 years.
This year, the closest thing to a "must have" is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles by Playmates Inc. and Doc McStuffins.

Best of 2012: #7 - FTL: Faster Than Light
by Alice O'Connor, shacknews.com, Jan 22, 2013 12:01PM PST
Space is pretty big, they say, and filled with stuff. No one is sure quite what that stuff is, but experts are cautiously optimistic that it's "pretty wild." FTL: Faster Than Light is ostensibly a game about voyaging across space, but the roguelike's real exploration is of systems closer to home: the many ways you are inept and ruin things. It's a game about accepting that you'll cock it up and kill your friends, but maybe just save the galaxy one day.
FTL tosses you in at the deep end: the galaxy is in peril, go save it. With a top-of-the-line space ship at your disposal and a highly-trained crew, you set out heroically. Five minutes later, they're all dead. You lingered too long near a flaring sun and underestimated how quickly you'd burn up. But it's okay, go again. And again. Over and over, learning quickly by failing and always having fun. You start planning: upgrades you'll develop; weapons you'd like to find; how you'll vent boarding parties into space; sectors of space to avoid; first contact protocols. You get cocky, and your dream crew asphyxiate when you choose the wrong battle to experiment with pulsing life support on and off to preserve power. But you start again.
After 25 hours, I finally beat FTL with a ship whose name I'm told I may not include in this story. [Ed's note: It was a cuss word!] I had become frustrated with losing--frustrated with myself, never the game--and had started furiously hammering in strings of obscenities as names when I raced to start over. The winning ship is too obscene, I'm told. It was a hard-earned victory, which I savoured for all of five minutes before cheerily naming and launching a glorious new flagship, the USS Sweary Mary. Predictably, the names grew cruder again as I started over and over to unlock more ships, explore more of the universe, try new and unconventional tactics, and stumble across new missions. It didn't matter, though. I'd won. I finally had a vague idea how to respond to the horrors of space. I'd overcome my proclivity to ruin everything.
One day, I may even beat Normal difficulty. I'll need to learn some new cuss words though.
The Shacknews Best of 2012 Awards were determined by ballot voting across the entire Shacknews staff. Garnett, Jeff, John, and Tyler voted for FTL, with Alice choosing it as her personal Game of the Year, earning it 220 points and the 7th place position on our list. The Shacknews Community chose the game as the PC Game of the Year. Stay tuned all week as we reveal all our winners.

Exceptional wine and customer service!!
By BAV
from Rochester, MN
I do not usually write reviews but felt compelled to this time. I have used this company in the past to send gifts and the recipients have always been thrilled. This time I had a gift of wine sent to a close friend and I inadvertently had it sent to the wrong address. The customer service representative was absolutely wonderful and immediately sent out a new basket to the correct address even though the error was on my part. Thank you so much for saving the day for me!! By the way the recipient absolutely loved it! You will definitely be my go to company for all future gift sending occasions.

For the price there should be 3 bottles instead of 2.

This basket was the perfect gift! It was a dark and stormy March night and this was the ideal gift for my sister-in-law and her guests to enjoy in front of their fireplace.
