Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

CUSOM is committed to selecting applicants who will be an asset to the profession of osteopathic medicine. The goals of the admissions process are to:
- Understand each applicant as a whole person.
- Evaluate the potential for success in the Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.) Degree Program.
- Assess the candidate's commitment and aptitude as a future practicing osteopathic physician.
- Consider the applicant's interest in serving rural and underserved populations.
CUSOM Applications Procedure
Individuals interested in applying to the CUSOM must complete an online application through the American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine Application Service (AACOMAS) and a CUSOM Supplemental Application. All applicants must complete the AACOMAS application in order to access the CUSOM Supplemental Application.
AACOMAS Application
CUSOM participates in a centralized application service, the American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine Application Service (AACOMAS), for the collection of application information. All interested applicants must complete a web-based application. The AACOMAS service collates materials, computes grades and transmits standardized information to the applicant as well as to CUSOM. AACOMAS takes no part in the evaluation, selection or rejection of applicants. Individuals interested in applying to CUSOM should begin the application process by applying to the AACOMAS online application at https://aacomas.aacom.org/. Additional information about AACOMAS and the AACOMAS online application can be obtained by contacting:
5550 Friendship Boulevard, Suite 310
Chevy Chase, MD 20815-7231
or call, (301) 968-4100.
CUSOM Supplemental Application
CUSOM requires all applicants to submit a CUSOM Supplemental Application. Once CUSOM receives the AACOMAS application, qualified applicants will receive an e-mail message providing information and instructions regarding how to complete the Supplemental Application. The e-mail message will include a username and password to access the secure CUSOM Candidate Portal to complete the Supplemental Application and submit the $50 non-refundable application fee. Payment of the $50 application fee is required at the time you submit your application. The CUSOM Supplemental Application is very brief, and CUSOM encourages you to complete it as soon as possible.
The deadline date for submitting the CUSOM Supplemental Application is April 1, 2015.
The secondary application process consists of the CUSOM Secondary Application, a non-refundable processing fee, waiver/non-waiver statement, and two required letters of recommendation. Letters of recommendation may not be written by a relative either by blood or through marriage.
The first letter must be from either an osteopathic physician (D.O.) or an allopathic physician (M.D.). Although a letter from an osteopathic physician is not required, it is strongly recommended. The other letter must be from a premedical advisory committee or science faculty member familiar with the academic work of the applicant.
CUSOM welcomes additional letters of support or recommendation from those who are acquainted with the student's academic or professional ability. All letters of recommendation must be originals on professional or college/university letterhead, signed by the evaluator and mailed directly to the Office of Admissions.
Applicants are encouraged to complete their applications as early as possible to receive early consideration for an interview. Applicants selected for a personal on-campus interview will be notified in writing from the Office of Admissions. Applicant interviews will be conducted throughout the application cycle. The college uses a rolling admission cycle. As candidates are interviewed, notifications of acceptance are mailed to selected applicants.

SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic – Dominican counter-narcotics authorities seized 767 kilograms (1,690 pounds) of cocaine off a speedboat, arrested four suspected narco-traffickers and killed a fifth, marking the second major maritime bust in less than two weeks.
The raid, carried out at 1:30 a.m. local time on July 3, concluded a weeks-long investigation in which Dominican and international authorities tracked the drug shipment from Colombia. Authorities said the cocaine was bound for the Dominican Republic, where it would be routed to the United States and Europe.
"The decommission of these 722 packets of cocaine with a multimillion dollar value on the street is the result of the coordinated work by our agencies against this criminal activity," said Gen. Rolando Rosado Mateo, chief of the Dominican National Directorate for Drug Control (DNCD), the lead Dominican counter-narcotics agency.
The shipment was transferred from an ocean liner to two speedboats off the Dominican coast. Numerous agencies, including the Dominican National Police, Dominican and U.S. Coast Guards, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and U.S. Customs and Border Protection, worked together to track the boats to an area south of San Pedro de Macorís in southeastern Dominican Republic.
Authorities chased one of the boats to land where a firefight broke out between alleged narco-traffickers and authorities.
DNCD officials said the boat's driver, Raúl Pérez Cuevas, opened fire at a helicopter pursuing the boat. Authorities returned fire, wounding Pérez. He later died at the hospital, authorities said.
Four other men – Miguel Zapata de la Rosa, Roberto Octavio Peña Cordero, Julio César Madrigal García and Ruddy de Jesús Gálvez – were arrested and transferred to the prosecutor's office in San Pedro, where they were to be questioned and arraigned.
The second boat, also suspected to be carrying drugs, escaped, the DNCD said in a statement.
Rosado said the suspects are part of a powerful nexus of narco-traffickers, made up of Colombians, Venezuelans and Dominicans, who have been moving South American drugs through eastern Dominican Republic.
It was the second major narcotics shipment seized off the Dominican coast in less than two weeks. On June 23, the DNCD and U.S. agencies intercepted a 35-foot speedboat about 90 miles south of the country's Caribbean coast and seized 1,000 bricks of cocaine weighing about 900 kilograms (1,984 pounds).
The shipment, estimated to be worth more than US$26 million, was transferred to Port Canaveral, Fla., to be held as evidence. Three men aboard the boat were arrested, authorities said.
The Dominican Republic and neighboring Haiti, which together make up the island of Hispaniola, are major Caribbean transshipment points.
The maritime seizures reflect a shift in tactics employed by narco-trafficking organizations. Traffickers had long utilized small planes, flying low, to drop illicit drug shipments on farmland and other rural areas, from where they would be moved by boat.
After employing fighter planes to deter drug flights, authorities said traffickers have increasingly used maritime routes and the country's container ports to transport narcotics.
Dominican authorities have been working closely with U.S. agencies to monitor international waters and the country's coastline. Within the Dominican Republic, officials have had their aerial, land and maritime agencies work closer together to intercept drug shipments.
The two recent seizures were among the largest this year, according to the DNCD.

In conjunction with the Detroit Auto Show introduction of the Chevrolet Volt concept, General Motors is also unveiling an entirely new vehicle architecture that they've dubbed "E-Flex". As the name implies E-Flex is a platform for electrically driven vehicles. The key to this platform, though, is the inherent flexibility they've designed in. During the presentation of E-Flex Beth Lowery, GM Vice-President Energy and Environment talked about the future of energy supplies. GM sees diversity as one of the keys to energy independence.
General Motors has basically bifurcated their alternative fuel vehicles into two groups, those that have wheels driven by internal combustion engines and those that don't. The first group includes the hybrids like the mild hybrids sold today in the Saturn Vue and Aura. It also includes the upcoming two-mode hybrids in the 2008 Chevy Tahoe and other vehicles. The second group comprises vehicles that have no ICE mechanically connected to the wheels. E-Flex falls into the latter category. Find out lots more about E-Flex and see more images after the jump.
(Click here to see AutoblogGreen's high-resolution image gallery of the Chevy Volt and read all about the car here.)
[Source: General Motors]
The basic framework of the E-Flex platform
The E-Flex platform was designed to be adaptable to a variety of vehicle types and sizes in a way that can be built profitably and work in a world with wide energy diversity. General Motors doesn't believe that there will be any one silver bullet to the energy problem. Instead, the future energy supply will be more regionally diversified and decentralized. Energy sources will be based on what is available locally, such as solar, wind, biomass, geothermal etc. Some future vehicles will be driven by hydrogen, some by batteries, and still others for the foreseeable future will be internal combustion. E-Flex allows GM to tailor vehicles to the energy infrastructure vehicles of a given market, such as biodiesel made from wood chips in Sweden or sugar-cane ethanol in Brazil.
The lowest common denominator of E-Flex, the framework with the electric motor in place.
The first E-flex iteration, as implemented in the Volt, is a front wheel drive vehicle with a compact AC electric motor mounted low between the front wheels. A new-generation electronics package that combines the controls, charging and inverter into a single unit mounted on the motor. There are two charging ports going out to each front fender, allowing batteries to be charged at home without an external charger. This much is common to all E-Flex variants.
The lithium ion battery is mounted in the center tunnel
The version shown in Detroit and built into the Volt has a high capacity lithium ion battery pack, mounted longitudinally in the center tunnel of the car. This configuration concentrates the mass of the battery low in the center of the car, in order optimize the vehicle dynamics. It also gives the maximum impact protection to the battery, which is important for a LiIon battery.
The generator is mounted above the motor
The current configuration also has an internal combustion engine, combined with a generator that GM calls an EV range extender. The 1.0L turbocharged three cylinder is flex-fuel capable and optimized to run at constant speed. The 53 kW engine combined with the 53 kW generator can maintain and charge the battery pack. One advantage of this is that the Volt can avoid a common EV phenomenon known as "turtling". On battery-only EVs, when the charge level gets low, the output drops and the car is unable to accelerate or even maintain speed on a grade. With the E-flex range extension, the engine automatically starts when battery charge drops to a certain level and shuts off when the battery is charged. The compact engine/generator combination sits on top of the electric motor. The 12 gallon fuel tank sits in the normal location under the rear seat. This could easily be replaced by versions that run on diesel, E100, natural gas, or hydrogen based on market requirements.
The ICE is mounted between the electric motor and firewall
E-Flex also allows for other fuel systems to be used instead of the ICE range extender/battery. If battery technology reaches an adequate level of development, a battery only plug-in variant could easily be produced.
A variant of E-Flex equipped with a next generation General Motors designed fuel cell
The biggest complaint from EV1 customers was "I was tired of planning my life around my next charge". With the range extending capability of this platform, this complaint is no longer an issue. A biodiesel variant of this application might even close in a thousand mile range on a tank of fuel.
The Chevy Volt Concept built on the E-Flex platform

Family Time
We are so thankful that we were able to be home with family and friends for Christmas. We were also able see a few of our ministry partners during the months of January and February. It was too short of a trip though. We arrived back in Brazil on February 26th. Shortly before coming to the U.S. we had moved, and the new house did not have any kitchen cabinets or storage space. So it took us a few days to put some cabinets in and unpack a bunch of boxes from our move and our trip, before we really felt settled in again. Also, the kids had been off of school for most of January and February so as soon as we unpacked they went back to school, which they were not too thrilled about. Thanks to all of our friends and ministry partners who made our short trip home possible.
Oasis of Hope
Our goal this year is to launch to the Oasis of Hope Children's ministry through our local church. To do so we are aiming at building a 1800 square ft addition on our church property that will house the Oasis of Hope ministry activities. Our goal was to raise $20,000 by the end of March, and we are $5,000 shy of reaching that goal. Most of the structure is complete, all that is lacking are some basic furnishings and equipment to make it functional. We hope to be able to put this new space to use by June – just in time for "winter break" and the FIFA World Cup.
The Cidade Tiradentes Church-Plant
In April, the new church-plant, which started a little more than a year ago, takes an important step as it will have an organizational service and be legally recognized as a "church" before the government. For the church members, the legal aspect of the whole thing is not a big deal, but it is a moment in which they take greater "ownership" in the vision and ministry of the church.
Pray for the church to grow in the Word, in their relationship with Jesus Christ, and in their service through the Church. We have faced a tremendous amount of difficulty with this church-plant, but we believe God has led us here and that He has a plan for these people in this place. Pray that we will remain faithful through the daily grind of life and ministry in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Home for Christmas
This is the 3rd time in 9 years that that we have been able to be home for Christmas. It was great to worship the Lord together with our home church in Nashville, TN, and to see family and friends that we had not seen in years.
We will remain in the U.S. for a short furlough until the end of February. We'll take much of January and February to report so some partnering churches in the region.
Robbed and Broken
In the month we have been in the U.S. our church in Brazil has been robbed 4 times. The robberies have resulted in significant property damage to doors, windows, gates, etc…, and substantial property loss. The thieves even managed to steal the church's refrigerator/freezer in the most recent robbery. Our estimated loss to date is around $3,000.
The church is located in a notoriously dangerous part of the city so we are used to being robbed every once in a while, but this is worst than anything we have experienced before. This is a spiritual attack on the church. The church has only been meeting for a year, and it is largely made up of new Christians. These new Christians have worked and given towards much of what has been destroyed or stolen. They are discouraged, but they are pressing on. They will spend much of their New Year's Day at the church installing temporary lighting so that they can have lights for Sunday worship.
This turn of events is also discouraging to us because we were hoping to raise funds during our time in the U.S. for a new project, but much of what we probably raise will be designated to simply put doors and windows back on our building. Pray for the church to shine during this difficult time – God is in control!
Ever since I began serving as a missionary in Brazil, I felt the Brazilian church could do more in missions than what they were doing. For the most part, the churches get the Biblical foundations of missions, and they understand that missions is their responsibility, yet their is a huge gap in between understanding missions and engaging the world with the Gospel. Don't get me wrong, churches support missionary projects, many churches are very missional, and some even have local church-planting projects. The church's primary missions focus has been the home front – Brazil, and the other Portuguese speaking countries in the World. Latin American countries have been a secondary focus, and much of the rest of the world has yet to become a missions priority.
Everything the Brazilian church has done has been great. Start where they are and move out from there into the farthest corners of the world. And it is there, the farthest corners of the world, where God began working in my heart as to what I could do to mobilize the Brazilian church towards Asia. Back in 2010, I had the opportunity to take a trip to Asia where I was introduced to a people and a culture much different than the Brazilian culture I am accustomed to. God used this exposure to create a desire in my heart to be a vehicle, a mechanism, a conduit through which the Brazilian church could engage this corner of the world. I went back to the U.S. and began talking to some friends about what could be done. To make a long story short, I took a hard look at the various mission agencies in the U.S. that partner with national missionaries and pastors in closed countries within the 10/40 window, and I formed a partnership with one of these agencies. I came back to Brazil and started creating partnership with key pastors and church leaders. I wanted Brazilians to be involved in the whole project from the onset. They bought into the vision and the plan, and we set the whole thing in motion in 2013. Today we have a partnership with Faith International Partners, a mission organization whose focus is to partner with, train, and mobilize national missionaries and pastors in the Asian countries within the 10/40 window. We offer Brazilian churches an opportunity to partner with church-planting projects in Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, and India.
What do you think of when you hear the word "oasis"? I think of a character out of an Indiana Jones movie, or a cowboy out of an old western wearily traveling through a desert. As the traveler's strength evaporates into thin air from the intense heat of the sun and the blistering sand and stones, he looks into the distance to see an island of palm trees circling a spring-filled pond. The traveler's hope is renewed and his life restored. Merriam-Webster defines oasis as "a fertile or green area in an arid region (as a desert), or something that provides refuge, relief, or pleasant contrast." To paraphrase that definition we could say that an oasis is "a source of life in the middle of a deadly desert."
Our current church-plant decided on "Oasis Church" for a name because they wanted the church to be the life of Christ lived out in the midst of the spiritually dead world. The world is spiritually dead. Some places apear to be "deader" than others, but to understand the significance of the church name to these people you need to understand a little about where they live.
Oasis Church is inserted in one of the most notoriously dangerous districts in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Sao Paulo, Brazil boasts a greater regional population of nearly 30 million people, and within this region, the East Zone of the city is the most populous, and clear out on the edge of the East Zone is a group of notoriously bad districts, the worst of which is Cidade Tiradentes (CT). CT is nowhere as bad today as it once was, but the socio-cultural stigma of fear and hopelessness remains.

President Obama in his efforts to win support for bombing Syria used an argument that is especially bad, even among the many poor arguments in his various statements. He claimed that the stockpile of nerve gas of the Syrian government poses a direct threat to the United States. If these gases got into the hands of terrorists, the gases might be used in attacks against America. Obama said: "When you start talking about chemical weapons, in a country that has the largest stockpile of chemical weapons in the world, where over time their control of chemical weapons may erode, where they're allied to known terrorist organizations, that in the past have targeted the United States, then there is a prospect, a possibility in which chemical weapons, that can have devastating effects, could be directed at us and we want to make sure that that does not happen."
In response to this danger, he proposes military measures to punish the Assad regime for what he alleges to be its use of nerve gas. These measures, if successful, would show the Syrian government that using nerve gas has a severe cost. Suppose, which I do not for a moment believe, that an American strike at Syria did have the intended effect on the Syrian government. That would not in the slightest reduce the threat to Americans from terrorist acquisition of parts or all of the Syrian government's stock of nerve gas. That threat, to the extent it is present, comes from terrorists' possession of stocks of nerve gas, not from the use of the gas by the Syrian regime in attacks. The military measures proposed would not get rid of nerve gas: they aim, rather, to deprive the Syrian government of the military advantage it is supposed to have gained from its use of gas. If there is a threat to us from nerve gas, bombing Syria would not relieve it. Indeed, it would increase the threat, by increasing the chances that terrorist elements could seize stocks of the gas from a weakened government and by inflaming that government against us. ( I need hardly add that I do not assume that the Administration's account of responsibility for the use of gas in Syria is correct. )

21 Year Old Me
How I did it: This is actually the second time I completed this goal because I added it in April 2010 and completed for my year of college 2009-2010 and now I've just completed it again for 2010-2011. :D
- Went to college everyday unless I was really ill or couldn't go in because of the snow.
- 2009-2010 I was very independent and happy and then had Colette start March 2010 and we became good friends.
- I also started dating Nick April 2010 and being in love made the time happier and went by faster :D
- At first the time seemed to be going by very very slow......ly... and I had a lot of time off because a boy at the college was *always* harassing me :(
- I started coming in more often in May and decided not to let him get in the way of me getting a education.
- In June I started talking to Sidra and hanging around with her again at dinner and last breaks.
- Around the middle of June I started noticing 'Stuart' again. (splitting image of Nick) and he also helped make the time go faster :P
- Me and Sam always arrive a little later than everybody else because of our transport. Our group plus the other group were both in out tutor room with not many spare chairs and I didn't know where to sit so Sue said to sit in a spare chair which happened to be next to Stuart :P + I sat there(of course!) and me, Graham, Stuart and Chris all played Family Fortunes :) Bonus is that I noticed him kind of checking me out and kind of touching his penis xD (surely boys don't have itchy balls that often(every 30 seconds to 1 minute??)
- Then it was break then the leavers party which was quite boring. We got out certificates(I was first called out of everybody(3 different colleges) and then we had food. Then 1 hour of boredom then some people did karaoke(well 1 staff member and Nik.
- Came back from the party. Saw Sidra, she bought me a bracelet and some nail varnishes :) Then we went around the college and she also bought me a bag :) Saw Stuart wandering around.

INTERVIEW: James Gunn Talks About TRANSCENDENTAL, The History of Science Fiction, and How It Can Save The World
James Gunn is a Grand Master of Science Fiction, one of its best historians and proponents, and is a gentleman and a scholar. He's been writing science fiction for 64 years, and has been a science fiction scholar for 54 years. I only spoke with him a couple of times briefly at Worldcon, but he was gracious and very forthcoming. At 90 years of age, Jim was energetic, articulate, polite and had time for everyone. And his memory and clarity of mind rivals the sharpest.
Jim started reading pulps like Doc Savage magazine (who doesn't like Doc?), and a set of Tarzan novels found in the back of his parents' closet. He absorbed all the magazines he could at Andy's used magazine store. He has memories of his Uncle John taking him (at 14 years old) and his brother to see H.G. Wells speak; Jim doesn't recall what Wells talked about, but recalls that he was "short and dumpy, and spoke in a high voice." He and his brother tried to get close enough to touch and talk to his hero, but were unable to.
His first science fiction story was called "Paradox" – it was rejected by Astounding (John Campbell) and Amazing but eventually sold to Thrilling Wonder Stories for $80. The late Frederik Pohl was Gunn's agent; they first met in person at the 10th Worldcon in Chicago in 1952. Gunn sold nine of his first ten stories, but he took two years. With his wartime savings running out, he turned to Kansas University.
As a science fiction scholar, Professor Gunn founded the Center for the Study of Science Fiction as Kansas University. His scholarly works include the series of six Road to Science Fiction anthologies and Isaac Asimov: The Foundations of Science Fiction (for which he won the Hugo for Best Non-Fiction Book in 1983). He also wrote a book of science fiction criticism, Alternate Worlds: The Illustrated History Of Science Fiction, which won a special award from the 1976 World SF Convention (there were no Hugos for non-fiction at that time). He is the only person to be president of both the Science Fiction Writers Association (1971-1972) and the Science Fiction Research Association.
James Gunn was recognized with the Damon Knight Memorial Grand Master Award for lifetime achievement in 2007.
His latest novel, Transcendental, is as ambitious and optimistic as his novels from decades ago. In this interview (partially in person, mostly via email), Professor Gunn discusses his past, science fiction's past, his new novel, and how Science Fiction can save the world.
(There is a link below to also skip over the parts about Transcendental, for those who wish to read the interview but want to avoid any spoilers.)
[GUEST POST] Christopher J. Garcia's Conversations at the Bottom of the Escalator
Christopher J. Garcia is a writer, historian, fanzine editor (editor of The Drink Tank and co-editor (with James Bacon) of Journey Planet), and filmmaker from Santa Clara, California. He's lost 16 Hugos in three categories, but managed to win Best Fanzine in 2011. He's a Curator at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, CA. He is also working on a fannish documentary series called 5 Cons.
Dear John,
First off, congrats! You've got your second Hugo which can now be used as bookends! That's the best thing about getting your second, so I've been told, and as long as one of the books between them is All Our Yesterdays by Harry Warner, I'll never complain about comin' in second to ya on both of 'em!

2013 LoneStarCon3/WorldCon Trip Report
I'm still flying high after LonestarCon3/Worldcon 2013. What a blast it was. Even though I arrived relatively late to the con, the people there instantly made me feel right at home.
Convention panels are fun, but for me the real pleasure in attending conventions is hanging out with like-minded book-lovers. Many people made this con a memorable lifetime experience for me — too many to name-drop without leaving someone out, but they know who they are — and they were not only the fellow attendees with whom I shared laughs with, but also the convention runners who put on a great con. Well done! My only regret is that I didn't have more time to spend with fellow con-goers, and some fiends I missed seeing completely. Next time!
This convention had the largest-ever attendance by regular SF Signal contributors. I finally got to meet some of them for the first time in person. It was like a family gathering, only without the arguments and guilt. (Even so: I'm the crotchety old uncle.)
Speaking of gatherings, the SF Signal Meetup was a smashing success. Lots of fans and authors showed up for a relaxed get-together and some fun schmoozing. It ran long, but only because it was so much fun. Thanks to everyone who attended!

The SF Signal Podcast (Episode 165): WorldCon Interview with Douglas Hulick
In episode 165 of the SF Signal Podcast, Patrick Hester chats at WorldCon with Douglas Hulick, author of Among Thieves.
About Douglas Hulick: Douglas Hulick was born in Fargo, ND, but spent much of his life moving about the Midwest. Somehow, he kept ending up in the vicinity of Chicago, IL, which helps explain his abiding love of deep-dish pizza, Ferris Bueller, and Goose Island beer. Somewhere along the way, a copy of A Dictionary of the Underworld by Eric Partridge fell into Douglas's hands. Having sold a few fantasy short stories, Douglas thought a book that defined historical thieves cant (criminal jargon) and described some of the practices of that world might come in handy at some point. Little did he know. Among Thieves, his first novel, grew out of this unlikely seed over the course of a decade. It was acquired by Roc/Penguin U.S.A. on Douglas's 44th birthday in 2009. Douglas lives with his wife and two sons in Minnesota. When not writing or chasing after his kids, he likes to practice and teach 17th century Italian rapier combat (in the tradition of Ridolfo Capoferro), cook, read, and hang out in coffee shops.

Album Cover: Drake – 'Nothing Was the Same'
Started as a baby, now he's here. Drake illustrates his evolution from childhood to manhood on the cover art for his third album Nothing Was the Same. He revealed the two covers on his website OVOSound.com and confirmed the new September 24 release date.
The illustrated artwork was designed by artist Kadir Nelson, who designed the cover for Michael Jackson's posthumous album Michael. One cover shows a profile of the Toronto MC as a baby with an Afro pick in his hair, while the other image depicts a grown-up Drizzy against the same sky blue backdrop.
The follow-up to 2011's Take Care features the singles "Started From the Bottom" and "Hold On, We're Going Home," with contributions from Jay Z, Lil Wayne, and Hudson Mohawke.

What Happens When You Publicize Your Passion?
This is the blog post to accompany the roundtable discussion on this topic at the Mom 2.0 Conference in New Orleans on April 13, 2011.
Your passion is the thing that gets your pulse going. The thing that you could work on – if you wanted to call it work – all day without tiring of it. The thing that, when you speak of it to others, you find your words tumbling out over one another because you have so much you want to say. Perhaps thinking about it gets you jazzed, pumped up, ready to burst; perhaps it puts you in a calm, beautiful state of mind. Perhaps it does something completely different. The point is, you know what your passion is. And now, you want to start sharing it with others. Maybe you're starting a blog. Maybe you're starting a business. What might happen, once you start publicizing your passion? Here's a few of the things I encountered when I started publicizing mine.
You're putting your baby out in to the real world.
Your passion is very often the act or practice or belief or person that is closest to your heart. You have spent significant time thinking about it, talking about it, evangelizing it, defending it, developing it. Sharing that passion with others can be daunting, because it feels like you're putting your own vulnerable child out there in the big bad world. How will the world respond? Will it cherish and treat it gently and passionately as you do, or will the world be tough and mean and callous? Worry not. Most of the time, the world is a lovely and welcoming place. And even when you encounter the tough or the mean or the callous, approach it with an open heart: take constructive criticism for what it's worth – feedback to spur your growth and development of your passion – and discard anything that obviously comes from a place of cruelty or unkindness. (You'll be able to tell the difference.)
You're putting a piece of yourself on display.
Publicizing something that is your passion may be one of the truest forms of self-expression there is. While many people may feel passionate about the same subject as you do, only you have your unique view on it, your unique lens. Remember that only you see the world through your eyes. There is vulnerability in this, but also ringing, clear beauty.
You're pouring your heart and soul in to your Something, growing it from a seed in to a reality.
I saw a quote on a Starbucks cup once. The quote, paraphrased, said: It is a terrible fate to be good at the wrong thing. If you're good at the wrong thing, the combination of praise and rewards can trap you in it for life. And perhaps this is true for too many of us: we pursued paths that didn't light us on fire, but that promised a career path, a paycheque, stability, a day we maybe didn't hate but that we didn't love either. Our jobs were jobs: Work. By taking your passion and exposing it to others, does that turn your passion in to work? Certainly, you may be creating commitments for yourself around your passion – but if it's your passion that you're working on, can you classify it as work?
You're pushing yourself and pushing others. You're showing feelings and experiences you may not have expected – that nobody expected. You're pushing borders and boundaries inside of you and everyone else. You are showing real life.
Passion isn't clean. It isn't obedient. It doesn't follow paths or procedures. It doesn't get submitted for review or ask for signoff. The real world might want everything to fit in to neat, orderly lines, but your passion doesn't do that. You may have to take risks. You may have to take precautions. You will have to constantly evaluate and re-evaluate your boundaries. You may have to apologize. You may have to reassess whether you want to be doing this at all. And then you will keep doing it.
You're creating a record of your passions at one moment in time or across a span of months or years.
When I was a little girl, my mother always tried to get me to start a diary. I was never very good at it; I spent most of my time crafting long, flowery passages in my head rather than penning the everyday on to paper. When you start to publicize your passion, it leaves a record of that reflection of your personality at a point in time: One moment, or ten thousand moments. Imagine in a year or twenty years, being able to go back and see the expression of what was burning in your gut every day. The gift is priceless, not only to yourself but for so many others. It's a record of how far you've come, how far you've grown.
You're finding a community of people with whom you will share your passion and your heart, with whom you will grow and learn.
Just as you probably have seen the sites or books or other embodiments of people's passions, so too will people find yours. And when this happens, when you create or join a community based around your passion, you learn from each other and spur each other on and find out new things and explore new avenues you may never have seen.
You're realizing you need to ask for help.
You may know your passion inside out, but you don't know how to build a website, or how to set up an online store, or what SEO even means. That's OK. Because out there, there is someone whose passion is just that. Reach out to your community or other resources and get the help you need, if you need it, so that you can focus on doing what you do best, what you care about most.
You're finding an idol. And becoming one.
What is your passion? If you're here, you probably already know that. But if you don't, or if you want to hone it, there's an excellent guide at zenhabits.net called The Short But Powerful Guide To Finding Your Passion.There's also an excellent section on Meaning and Passion on the TinyBuddha.com website.

Can Cerazette cause hip pain?
- Q: I am 15 years old and I have just started taking Cerazette (the mini pill) for about a week. I have just started getting a strange uncomfortable pain on my hip, could it have anything to do with the pill?
- A: Cerazette (desogestrel) can cause muscle and skeletal weakness in over 10 percent of the population on it. Hip pain is not a specific side effect from it, but has been reported by some patients taking it. If you are not tolerating it or need to change to a different medication, you should ask your doctor what would be best for you.

Lagaan: Once Upon a Time in India
After a lot of hype and anticipation, Lagaan: Once Upon a Time in India, released in 2001. The movie, directed and written by Ashutosh Gowariker was his first commercial and critically acclaimed success.
Lagaan was the best and the highest grossing movie of 2001 winning 44 awards in various film award functions including awards for 'Best Director', 'Best Actor', 'Best Movie', 'Best Music Director', 'Best Actress in a New Comers Role' and 'Best Choreographer.' Lagaan was also nominated for the Oscars for 'Best Foreign Language Film.'
The movie has a runtime for 224 minutes. The movie's plot is about a small village in North India which is facing problems in farming due to the drought conditions. The villagers have to pay land taxes (lagaan) to Andrew Russell (Paul Blackthorne) who is a British Captain. The villagers thought they would be excused from the taxes this time because of no rains, but instead the Captain challenges them to a game of cricket which they must win if they want to be freed from taxes. If they lose then they must pay twice the normal tax.
The villagers are unaware of what cricket is and are petrified. Bhuvan (Amir Khan), a young villager accepts this challenge and assembles a team to play against the British after three months. Andrew's sister Elizabeth (Rachel Shelley) helps Bhuvan and his team understand the rules of cricket and how it must be played. At the time of the match, they face quite a few challenges but eventually win the game, which frees them off taxes.
The movie also shows a love triangle between Bhuvan, Elizabeth and his girlfriend Gauri (Gracy Singh.) Lagaan sends a message to viewers to never lose hope even in testing times, to stand up for one self and to fight against injustice.

Comments about G H G GHG Over-Size Mallard Shells, 12-Pack:
I own 4 dozen shells. They are best with flocked heads. The reason I rated them 4 instead of 5 is that the lugs on the heads have to be cleaned before they will go on the bodies. Be sure to check the head attachment before heading into the field. Otherwise, they work great and are very easy to use.

Of Didcot And the Demon
Anthony Gibson
Fairfield Books
4.5 Stars
By Martin Chandler
22 Feb 2010
Alan Gibson was a gifted intellectual with an engaging if flawed personality whose failure to utilise his enviable array of talents in the world of commerce was cricket's gain. He was a fine writer on the game and, for a time, broadcaster but his life was, sadly, worn down by depression, drink and the inevitable domestic difficulties that that combination brought with it.
"Of Didcot and the Demon" is really three books in one. It begins with the story of Alan's life up until 1967 when he became a regular cricket correspondent for The Times. Author Anthony Gibson, Alan's son from his first marriage, sets the scene beautifully. He sets out both his father's qualities and his failings objectively and concisely yet still with great affection.
In 1968 the format changes and there is then a chapter for each year up until 1986. The individual years begin with a seamless commentary which continues the biography and also contains a summary of how the English game took shape that year. That summary is, primarily, a setting and framework for the extracts from Alan's work that make up the bulk of each chapter, but it also represents a potted history of the County game over the period which reminds the reader just what a time of upheaval it was for cricket in England.
In 1985 Alan had a breakdown, physical and mental, and while 1986 brought a comeback of sorts that was his last year with "The Thunderer". The decline from then until his death in 1994 was a sad one and is recorded very briefly before the book closes with Alan's last published piece from "The Cricketer", a memoir of his former colleague John Arlott who died in 1991, and finally a poignant extract from "Growing up with Cricket", a book of reminiscences that he published in 1985.
The main part of the book is, of course, Alan's writings and the scene having been set by Anthony's commentary what might otherwise have been a disjointed collection of writings becomes almost a story in itself. That story is told, in the main, through extracts from Alan's match reports but there are also some excellent historical pieces and features as well as some book reviews which demonstrate very clearly the full range of Alan's talents and leave the reader in no doubt as to his deep love for and knowledge of cricket.
The difference in style between Alan Gibson and his contemporaries was marked enough but with today's writing there is no real room for comparison at all. In the 21st century cricket reporting is an exercise in analysis rather than the descriptive art form it was just a generation or so ago when Alan was at the peak of his powers. What sets him apart from his peers is the discursive elements to his writing which lead to many observations on extraneous matters, hence the reference in the title to Didcot railway station. The remaining half of the title, the Demon, is the shortened form of Alan's soubriquet for Somerset seamer Colin Dredge, "The Demon of Frome".
I could wax lyrical about Alan Gibson's writing for several paragraphs yet but that would be no substitute for first hand experience and author and publisher have kindly agreed to allow CricketWeb to publish
this extract
from the book. There is no reference in it to Didcot station or "The Demon of Frome", nor for that matter "The Shoreditch Sparrow" or "JJ", or the ladies "Phyl" and "GRIP" - if you want to meet them you will have to go out and spend your hard earned on this magnificent book but the star of the extract, "The Old Bald Blighter", is certainly my favourite Gibson character.

Dyson, a Malmesbury, England-based maker of the vacuum cleaners, is making its debut in America with the launch of DC07, the first vacuum cleaner that reportedly doesn't lose suction.
According to the manufacturer, the DC07 maintains constant suction due to Dyson's patented Root8Cyclone(TM) technology, which is said to create an extreme amount of centrifugal force to effectively remove dirt, dust, pet hair, dust mites, pollen, and other particles from both short- and long-pile carpets as well as bare floors. In fact, Dyson claims its DC07 has double the suction of other vacuums after picking up 10 oz of dust. Other vacuum cleaners rely on bags or filters to remove dirt -- both of which clog, obstructing airflow and causing diminished performance with each usage, the company says.
Industrial engineer and inventor James Dyson developed cyclone vacuum cleaner technology after his household vacuum cleaner failed to do its job.
"I was so frustrated with my vacuum cleaner -- the bag quickly clogged with dust, destroying the suction," explains James. "So I developed an entirely new type of vacuum cleaner to solve this problem: the first cyclonic bagless vacuum cleaner, which unlike others, doesn't lose suction."
In 1993, after building more than 5,000 prototypes, Mr. Dyson launched the patented Dyson Cyclone vacuum cleaner in the U.K. Today, Dyson reportedly has almost half of the vacuum cleaner market in the U.K. by dollar sales.
According to the company, its Root8Cyclone technology is unlike any other on the market. It reportedly causes high volumes of air to spin extremely fast through several individual cyclones, creating 100,000G of centrifugal force. Dirt and debris are subjected to this force and subsequently thrown to the outer edges of the plastic bin. Because the airflow is said to be unobstructed, there's nothing to clog, so suction power remains constant and the DC07 vacuum is able to remove even the finest dust particles.
In contrast to DC07, bag vacuums rely on the bag to hold back the dust, Dyson explains. When dust and dirt enter the bag, tiny pores on the bag inevitably become clogged, causing restricted airflow. So-called "bagless" vacuums also suffer from clogging: they rely on a filter to hold back dust, which clogs just like a bag.
"The truth with other vacuums is that the more you use them, the less they work," says Mr. Dyson. "In fact, tests conducted by independent laboratories indicate that DC07 has double the suction than other vacuums after picking up just 10 ounces of dust."
The company says a key benefit of the vacuum cleaner, especially for asthma and allergy sufferers, is its ability to remove even the highest level of microscopic dust particles and sinister allergens such as dust mites and pollen.
Unlike with other bagless vacuums that rely on filters to hold back dust, Dyson says the HEPA filter in DC07 does not ever need to be replaced. In addition, Dyson's Bactisafe(TM) screen reportedly traps and kills bacteria, mold, and other germs on contact. In fact, Dyson's vacuum cleaners have earned the British Allergy Foundation Seal of Approval.
Dyson expects DC07's patented technology and ergonomic design to be most appealing to Americans who want the latest technology, appreciate superior design, and struggle with dust and dirt in their homes.
All three models of Dyson's DC07 are available now exclusively at The Terence Conran Shop in New York City, NY, U.S. Models are also available for purchase on the company's web site, and Best Buy will start carrying one of the DC07 models in late October.

How long can men thrive between walls of brick, walking on asphalt pavements, breathing the fumes of coal and of oil, growing, working, dying, with hardly a thought of wind, and sky, and fields of grain, seeing only machine-made beauty, the mineral-like quality of life. Charles Lindbergh - "Aviation, Geography, and Race" Reader's Digest (November 1939)
pjc on February 27 at 10:40 a.m.
Wow, I am astonished that you posted anything from this article. A good indication of the subject matter of the article is the title, "Aviation, Geography and Race."
Here is another quote from the same article:
We, the heirs of European culture, are on the verge of a disastrous war, a war within our own family of nations, a war which will reduce the strength and destroy the treasures of the White race, a war which may even lead to the end of our civilization. And while we stand poised for battle, Oriental guns are turning westward. Asia presses towards us on the Russian border, all foreign races stir restlessly. It is time to turn from our quarrels and to build our White ramparts again. This alliance with foreign races means nothing but death to us. It is our turn to guard our heritage from Mongol and Persian and Moor, before we become engulfed in a limitless foreign sea. Our civilization depends on a united strength among ourselves; on strength too great for foreign armies to challenge; on a Western Wall of race and arms which can hold back either a Genghis Khan or the infiltration of inferior blood; on an English fleet, a German air force, a French army, an American nation, standing together as guardians of our common heritage, sharing strength, dividing influence.
Jeez, why don't you just pull something from Mein Kampf?
Lindbergh was a great flyer but not much else. He flirted with racism, eugenics, and other nasty stuff.

"Not just for my Kids or my Youth"
I absolutely love the prose of Jack London. I wonder exactly how many people have died, pulled North to the Wild by the romantic pen of Jack London. I finished a while back (Dietz's version) and was crying as I listened to it with my kids.
I've recently become interested in listening to several classics by different readers. London was one of the first I've done this with, but it worked well so he won't be the last.
John Lee gives a very solid reading of this classic. I think this is probably the superior audio of White Fang. While I like Dietz (and haven't done anything but sampled Thomley), Lee's reading is straight forward and easily managed at hyper-audio speeds (2.5x or faster). The only downside of a narration by Lee, is it is sort of like watching a movie with Kevin Bacon. They guy is everywhere and it is weird to hear his voice in so many places.
An avid reader, I was concerned that audiobooks would be more like 3rd grade reading circle and less like a performance. I was wrong. I only wish I had started sooner!
"Top-rate story and storytelling"
I would consider it so, yes. the narrator really brings the words to life, in a way I didn't think possible.
The Call of the Wild. the stories, and the point of view from which they are told, is unique and fascinating.
The first meeting between White Fang and the "Love Master" - no spoilers here, though
I did. This is the first novel as a child that I ever read, and listening to it tok me back to third grade, and the wonder I felt as I realized that a story - jut words, mind you, no pictures - could, really could, take me to another place.
This is a must-have in every library, and every Audible collection.
"Great reading"
This is one of my favorite books of all time. I own a few audio versions and this is by far the best. Very well done.
"The fate of domesticated wolf that inducs pathos"
Courage to live
Weeden Scott, he has love for White Fang
All of them well performed by John Lee
When White Fang learned love.
I was encouraged by White Fang's way of vital living . He learned how to adjust his life with different masters and different circumstances.
"truly is a classic"
This audio has white fang and a couple other short stories. Jack London is a great writer, he picks up the story at the perfect spot and end it at the perfect spot.
When Buck first heard the "voices" from deep in the woods and you understood what the book was about. It really touched that spot in you that makes you want to get way and back to nature.
try listening to it at 1.5x the speed, I think it adds to the performance, it makes it more suspenseful and puts more an urge or eagerness in the characters to fulfill their destiny.
I'm a web developer based out of Sacramento, I listen to books while I work, and love audible.
"Good Viewpoint"
A good story about the life of a wolf/dog, from the viewpoint of the dog.
Faced with mindless duty, when an audio book player slips into a rear pocket and mini buds pop into ears, old is made new again.
"White Fang" is one of two famous works by Jack London. London writes an entertaining story about a mostly wild wolf that becomes a domesticate pet of an American geologist who visits Alaska and returns to California.
A criticism of the story is its similarity to "Call of the Wild" which involves an abused domesticate dog that is born in California, stolen by an abusive thief, and released in Alaska. London is an outstanding wordsmith that draws a reader into "White Fang"; despite its aura of a twice told tale. Both dogs in London's two tales grow to be ferocious fighters; adopted by abusive owners that use dogs in a fight-to-the-death betting' sport.
"White Fang" is a sweet adventure but not quite as emotion laden as "Call of the Wild". London offers a compelling description of Alaska's wild and its relationship with meat-trail winners and losers.
"Jack London's unique narrative style"
I love Jack London's unique narrative style. The principal character is a wolf, and you are able to live the history thru his eyes. Jack is able to "think" like a wolf would do. Also he transports you to foreign places. The history also is very good. Great time with this Audie.
In some ways. You can listen to an audio while working, driving etc and can't read during those times.
I suppose the other one I just listened to which was by Jack London, CALL OF THE WILD and they were both great, about animal, but opposite. One goes from wild to tame and the other goes from tame to wild.
The different character voices.
This book made me both cry and laugh, I think my fellow workers, wonder what I am listening to many times.
"Great story; fantastic performance."
The writing: London's narration renders the cognitive and and emotional processes propelling White Fang through his experience of the wild and captivity relatable—and even endearing—without over-anthropomorphizing the animal protagonist.
The performance: Lee's intonation and pacing seem to enhance the sense of wonder that pervades the writing. His impersonation of the story's human characters through their spoken dialogue was consistent and diverse, yet reserved and not jarringly campy.
I especially enjoyed White Fang's initial exploration beyond the walls of Kiche's den. The tactile description of the cub's introduction to the physical world—everything from gravity and momentum, to water, to the predator-prey dynamic—was imaginative, immersive and, at times, surprising in the novelty of its perspective.
