No current Talk conversations about this book.
Cunningham is maybe the only author I can think of where his prose is so stunningly beautiful that the plot and character development do not have much of an impact on my enjoyment of the book.
I liked this book much more than I expected to. And definitely more than the first 100 pages would suggest. In the beginning it seemed like this blah blah book about a sophisticated rich gallery owner in New York with a mild sense of existential unease in an otherwise happy enough life...who cares...anyway, this had my guard down and so when it got to the meat of the story I was bowled over and completely shocked. And it carries right through to the end. I couldn't stop reading it, wanted to sneak in a few pages at my desk at work. I loved how the book ended, it is a surprisingly good insight. A book for adults. I wish I could have a beer with Michael Cunningham.
I've read a few reviews of By Nightfall, and I must admit its critics are not altogether wrong. Some say it is pretentious, and yes, Michael Cunningham is inclined to deploy words like 'infelicitous' or 'corpuscular' at regular intervals. Others say it lacks dramatic tension, and yes, protagonist Peter Harris' stable, upper-middle class life as a Manhattan art dealer is never really threatened by the arrival of his wayward brother-in-law. It is hard to sympathise with such privileged neuroticism. Yet Cunningham's writing remains compelling.
Jeanette Winterson's admiring review in the New York Times was unsurprising, given that Cunningham's economy with words and ability to construct beautiful, writerly sentences recall Winterson at her best. Cunningham chooses his words with same meticulous care that Peter Harris selects artworks for his gallery. When a friend tells Peter, "You've always been in love with beauty itself. You're funny that way", she might have been speaking of the author. By Nightfall is indeed a celebration of beauty itself.
Michael Cunningham is an excellent writer. Unfortunately, just didn't meet this book at the right time. I enjoyed what I read, but realized I had moved on when I went to dust it off.
This was an effortless read including art-world elements, erotic undertones, & the ludicrous and seductive appeal of a burgeoning infatuation with an addict - his wife's brother. For anyone who has desired someone so entirely 'off-limits', this story will grab you and pull you in.
The main character's primary relationships were not with his wife or estranged daughter - but were of his love for beauty, art and his never-ending search for the potential presence of genius. Using Starbucks to keep him on track during the work-day and 'blue pills' washed down with vodka to help him sleep at night, this metro-sexual insomniac's internal chatter was amusingly familiar.
I never expected this novel to end with the possibility of redemption, but I appreciated greatly how the author inter-wove the New York scene-scape into the story, transporting the reader effortlessly into a middle-aged man's life that was desperate to find something meaningful in his life.
A sentimentalist's book, this one plucks at the ordinary heart-strings of our modern lives. I recommend for a contemplative type who can appreciate the range of an infatuated, middle-aged, man drowning inside himself one privileged moment after the next.
Cunningham writes so well, and with such an economy of language, that he can call up the poet's exact match. His dialogue is deft and fast. The pace of the writing is skilled — stretched or contracted at just the right time. And if some of the interventions on art are too long — well, too long for whom? For what? Good novels are novels that provoke us to argue with the writer, not just novels that make us feel magically, mysteriously at home. A novel in which everything is perfect is a waxwork. A novel that is alive is never perfect.
This is a pensive, elegant novel whose emotional reserves draw on the steady accretion of detail, cerebral rumination, and finely observed scenes plucked from the quotidian. But there's an air of implausibility to the machination and pacing of its thin plot, rescued only by Cunningham's crystalline prose and the novel's thematic precision and reach, which articulates the allure of beauty and its special power to make fools of us all.
Cunningham's novel is a homage to Thomas Mann's Death in Venice. Mann's protagonist, Gustav Von Aschenbach, is a renowned literary theorist and author. Like Peter Harris, Aschenbach is heterosexual, has been married for a long time and is also in the clutches of paralyzing doubt about his life's achievement...With By Nightfall, Cunningham deliberately glances back toward Mann's stylistic austerity and subject matter to evoke a kind of autumnal despair. Here is decay, mortality, the longing for youth and beauty; here is what happens when one denies passion, goes quietly into that good nightfall. Here is what happens when one acquiesces to old age, rather than raging against it. But Cunningham also allows for another very real truth: It is absurd to rail against it. The impressive feat of his novel is that it convincingly holds both positions at once.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0374299080, Hardcover)
Peter and Rebecca Harris: mid-forties denizens of Manhattan's SoHo, nearing the apogee of committed careers in the arts—he a dealer, she an editor. With a spacious loft, a college-age daughter in Boston, and lively friends, they are admirable, enviable contemporary urbanites with every reason, it seems, to be happy. Then Rebecca's much younger look-alike brother, Ethan (known in thefamily as Mizzy, "the mistake"), shows up for a visit. A beautiful, beguiling twenty-three-year-old with a history of drug problems, Mizzy is wayward, at loose ends, looking for direction. And in his presence, Peter finds himself questioning his artists, their work, his career—the entire world he has so carefully constructed.

Public Health News Roundup: September 27
Researchers to Study Yosemite Hantavirus Strain
Public health officials and researchers are using the recent hantavirus outbreak at Yosemite National Park to conduct further study into areas such as how it's transmitted and why it is seems to be more likely to affect certain people. At least nine people were infected and three died because of the outbreak. Their efforts include whole-genome sequencing of the particular strain and voluntary screenings of more than 2,500 Yosemite employees. Read more on infectious diseases.
Study: Harmful "Social Bullying" Common on Kids' Shows
A new study in the Journal of Communication shows that "social bullying" is common in television programs targeting children ages 2-11. Researchers found 92 percent of 150 episodes analyzed included mean behavior, insults or other forms of non-physical bullying. The popular shows included "Hannah Montana," "Suite Life of Zack & Cody," and "SpongeBob SquarePants." "Lots of attention has been paid to exposure to nudity and violence in the media, and rightfully so," said Nicole Martins, the study's lead author and an assistant professor in the department of telecommunications at Indiana University. "But parents are largely unaware that programs could be teaching children to be cruel and mean to each other as well. Just because a show is low on physical violence doesn't mean it's harmless." Read more on bullying and violence.
Doctors Reporting Dangerous Drivers Cuts Crashes Dramatically
A new study in The New England Journal of Medicine found that reporting by doctors of drivers with alcoholism, epilepsy or uncontrolled high blood pressure helped cut the risk of automobile collisions by 45 percent. The study looked at the risks associated with 100,075 people who were told by their doctor not to drive. "It isn't just that it can save your patient's life, not just that (not reporting) imposes risks on others in the community as well," said Donald Redelmeier, MD, of the Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre in Toronto and the study's lead researcher. "It's also that crashes are such a widespread cause of property damage that everybody pays, either through insurance premiums, or congested roadways, or the price of consumer goods." However, the study did note that reporting patients might make them less likely to return to their doctors. Read more on prevention.

TORONTO, March 12, 2012 — On VIA Rail's Skeena train, which travels 684 miles from Prince Rupert in Northern British Columbia to Jasper, Alberta, we fully expect the scenery to be stunning. And it is. From the lush coastal rainforest with towering moss-covered red woods and the interior forests to the climax of snow-capped Mount Robson, the highest peak of the Rocky Mountains, the views out of the windows make us grateful we no longer have to buy film.
Equally captivating are the stories we encounter of the small communities we pass through and the people who inhabit them. We meet Steve, a self-described gold-miner and part-time hobo, who lives in the bush with only his dog for company. He chats happily about his chosen life of treacherous climbs, hard physical labor and a rough cabin with no modern conveniences.
It's not a poor one, though. "I average about $200 a day, and if I'm lucky I can make $1000, he says as he pulls out a small mustard-colored nugget that looks nothing like our gold jewelry. Independent and self-sufficient, it's clear that Steve is rich in more ways than one.
"If it got any better, it would be too good," he declares. Before long, the train stops and Steve disappears into the bush.
The train picks anyone up anyone who flags it down along the route, providing an important service to the remote communities of the region.
"We're always happy to see Steve," says Tracy Maclean, the service coordinator onboard. "He depends on us and we depend on him for entertainment value."
All the communities along the way have their tales. There's Penny, which has a small wooden post office and claims to be the only place in Canada that still gets its mail delivered by train, and small logging and missionary settlements like McBride and Cedar Vale. The latter turns out to have a personal connection to the train's service manager, which he shares with the passengers in the panoramic lounge.
"My great-grandmother grew up in the three-room cabin we'll be passing by soon," he tells us and then recounts anecdotes of his relatives as school children rushing across tracks to arrive at school before the freight trains passed and as young adults walking long distances along the same tracks dressed in their best to attend dances in neighboring towns.
When the train passes his relative's homestead, now owned by a recluse, passengers rush to the windows to snap pictures of a scene that probably would have gone by unnoticed if we hadn't known about its history.
"The stories give it a more human touch," says Moira Graham, a passenger from Glasgow.

When South Korea announced its "green new deal" early in 2009, it shook the world. The United Nations hailed it as an answer to the world's woes. Korea would teach us all that low-carbon businesses could create employment.
But the UN had failed to understand Korean politics and propaganda. Two years on – more than half-way through the project – confusion reigns. Government departments are no longer collating the data needed to know whether the plan is working.

We review and recommend products from other brands because we are dedicated to helping you find the best products for your skin, whether they're from Paula's Choice or other lines.

The Paula's Choice team could barely help laughing out loud when we saw the name and claims for this product. Of course, our laughter always stops when we realize there are lots of women who buy this kind of snake oil marketing and waste their money. Full Body Lift cannot lift even a millimeter of skin anywhere on your body. It is about as close to being a "girdle in a bottle" as a skateboard is to being a Cadillac.
Lemon water is the main ingredient in Full Body Lift, which isn't best for anyone's skin. However, it's preferred to pure lemon oil in terms of the amount of irritation it causes; anyone who has gotten lemon on a ragged cuticle knows how unpleasant that is for skin. The peptides and plant extracts in this body moisturizer (Skinn refers to it as a serum) cannot firm skin or diminish stretch marks, which seems to be this product's big selling point.
The only information indicating that the peptide/plant extract blend (known as Regestril) can do anything comes from the company that sells Regestril. Even the manner in which Regestril is described to work is far removed from how stretch marks are formed. (Hint: It's not because of "protelytic enzymes," which are proteins that help you digest food. What that has to do with stretch marks is anyone's guess.) At best, this provides some helpful ingredients so skin can repair a damaged barrier and behave in a healthier manner. Those with dry skin will find it not moisturizing enough, while others should be aware that similar beneficial ingredients are available in body lotions that cost less (in some cases much less). You can find such options by visiting the Best Products section of Beautypedia.
This exquisite serum was developed specifically to work with the needs of the skin on your body. This superior formulation combines pure plant extracts with advanced peptide technology in a deep penetrating delivery system. It will diminish stretch marks while firming and toning the skin around your hips, thighs, midriff, neck and décolleté.
Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Fruit Water, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf, Regestril™ [Palmitoyl Oligopeptide, Rutin, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, Phaseolus Lunatus (Green Bean) Extract, Water, Butylene Glycol, Cetyl Hydroxyethylcellulose], Algae Extract, Yeast Extract, Sodium PCA (Natural Moisturizing Factor), Bisabolol, Wild Yam Extract, Glycosaminoglycans, Sodium Hyaluronate, Milk Thistle, Sugar Cane Extract, Rosa Canina (Rose Hips) Fruit Extract, Tussilago Farfara (Coltsfoot) Flower Extract, Green Tea Extract, Tocopheryl (Vitamin E) Acetate, Copper PCA, Vegetable Glycerin, Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) Leaf Glutathione, N-Acetylcystine, Dmae, Chlorphenesin, Benzoic Acid, Phenoxyethanol
Dimitri James is a makeup artist, hair stylist, and fashion consultant who spent two decades working for some of the biggest cosmetics companies in the world. After stints with brands such as Estee Lauder and Revlon, he decided, as so many others have before him, to launch his own products. Apparently, he was disenchanted with the business model most large cosmetics companies follow. According to James, the formula was always the same: "make a cheap product, put it in a fancy jar with a nice box and charge as much as possible." His cynical summation is definitely appreciated by those of us on the Cosmetics Cop team. Ironically, however, for the most part, Skinn's business model mimics the business model of many large and small cosmetics companies; that is, his products come in fancy jars, make inane unsupported claims, and are absurdly overpriced. Adding to that insanity, many of his products are poorly formulated.
Aside from the glaring same old, same old mix of disenchantment, those hoping for some good news about Skinn products will be pleased to know that this line does have some products worth considering. That doesn't mean the claims are accurate or that they outperform excellent products from many other lines. Overlooking the omission of reliable sunscreen from this line, the handful of good formulas are capable of getting as close as possible to keeping skin looking youthful and healthy. They won't replace cosmetic corrective procedures, but no skin-care routine will do that. Please refer to the list of strengths for products worth your attention; any products not on that list you can skip, unless you want to set yourself up for disappointment, and you will be disappointed if you expect the farfetched claims to come true.
Skinn's promises for their makeup—that they will make you a picture of airbrushed perfection—are beyond reality. Today's best makeup products can go a long way toward making a beautiful finish to your appearance and they're easier to apply than ever before. Just keep in mind that technique still plays a major role, so don't expect any makeup product to be the final answer. Skinn's color line has just as many misses as hits, so shop carefully. In this case, the foundations and concealer are not worth considering over countless others, but there are some great powder blushes and eyeshadows, a fantastic eye pencil, and mascaras that perform beautifully; but again, these are easily replaced with less expensive options. Those intrigued by makeup palettes may find some good options here, too.
All told, the Skinn line has a handful of impressive products, but it's not remotely "the revolution in cosmetics" Dimitri James makes it out to be. For more information about Skinn by Dimitri James, call (866) 346-4874 or visit www.skinn.com.
Note: This line is sold primarily on home shopping channels.

Prevent disease at feeders
(I'll be the first to admit I'm often derelict about cleaning my feeding station, but if I'm going to entice birds to visit them, it really is my responsibility to at least keep my feeders clean to prevent the spread of disease. Photo by Bob Marcotte.)
What should you do if you see a bird with eye disease, or any other disease, for that matter, at your feeders?
I go straight to the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology's Project FeederWatch website as the definitive source of answers to questions like this, specifically this link: http://www.birds.cornell.edu/pfw/AboutBirdsandFeeding/abtbirds_index.html
Here's what the site has to say on this subject:
"Only veterinarians or federally licensed wildlife rehabilitators can legally treat wild birds. If you see a bird that appears to be compromised in some way, perhaps due to sickness or injury, do not try to care for the bird yourself. It is illegal for you to possess most wild birds unless you are under the direction of someone licensed for their care.
"If a sick bird comes to your feeder, minimize the risk of infecting other birds by cleaning your feeder area thoroughly. If you see several sick birds, take down all your feeders for at least a week to give the birds a chance to disperse. Remember that prevention is the key to avoiding the spread of disease. Regularly clean your feeders even when there are no signs of disease.
"Birds can become ill from leftover bits of seeds and hulls that become moldy, as well as from bird droppings that accumulate on feeder trays. Therefore, you should clean your feeders about once every two weeks, more often during times of heavy use. For best results wash your feeder thoroughly in soapy water, then soak or rinse it in a solution of one part bleach to nine parts water. Dry the feeder thoroughly before refilling. Hummingbird feeders should be cleaned everytime you refill the nectar, which should be every three to five days.
"Also remember to rake the ground below your feeder to prevent accumulation of waste. Moldy or spoiled food is unhealthy not only for birds but for your outside pets. Bird food scattered on the ground also can attract rodents. Consider moving your feeders periodically to limit the accumulation of waste."

The Daily Show did a hilarious story on the extremely hot women behind the male candidates in the 2008 presidential election…while, of course, poking fun at the male news anchors who will not shut up about their hotness. For the record, if we voted based on the hotness of the potential first lady, we'd go for Kucinich and that spicy ginger-haired wife of his, without question. Likewise, if voting for president was a beauty contest, Obama and Edwards would have to enter the striptease runoff for our affections. [The Daily Show] Keep reading »

"Utilising both expermemtation and improvisation to create something unique is a tough task in today's world. Zoid seems to have utilised both and has created something that will be tough to top in its field." – We Are Noise
"This album is a real joy. The odd time signatures add a pleasingly unsteady organic quality that complements the crisp artificial beats." – ContactLight / Michael Noble
"Plenty of really enjoyable stuff going on here." – Louder Than War / Philip Neeson
ZoiD – Selected ZoiDworks 05-12
Selected ZoiDworks 05-12, from ZoiD, the electronica alias of Dublin musician Daniel Jacobson and the latest addition to the genre-warping series of album releases from net label Invisible Agent.
Available now on BandCamp, Amazon, iTunes, Emusic, Google Play, LastFM, and over 30 other stores.
While the title alone is a clear nod to the groundbreaking AFX releases of Richard D. James, and those looking for squelchy breaks and glitchy beats with the occasional old school acid overtone will not be disappointed, Selected ZoiDworks 05-12 is so much more than a frenetic exercise in ambient electronica.
Jacobson is a classically trained jazz musician, and from the opening bars of Aerosoul to the asynchronous beats of Particle Dither you are transported to the smoke-filled club of an improvising trio, though the free jazz notes they play were midwifed by a 303. Acid Leaves (with Bruce Morley) builds up to an acid rise and then subverts the expected break with a segue into a classical guitar riff that would not sound out of place on The Deer Hunter soundtrack, a theme continued on the soft yet driven Obelisk.
The ambient East Morning Pier, the darker Bluesqueek and pulsing Cember, and the 8-bit exercise in glitchy thumps Munch would reject any attempt to classify them as jazz, but even here its tempo, breaks and styling continue as a noticeable undercurrent, though one evolved almost beyond recognition.
The jazz/electronica path is one that is not well worn, perhaps because the cut-and-paste rhythmic regularity of a 4/4 laptop beat rarely plays well with the improvised fast-and-loose clashes of an off-tempo noodler. Where Brad Mehldau has drawn on Radiohead for his fusions, Jacobson has created something new and original, organically splicing the two with his own compositions, sometimes seamlessly, sometimes with a jarring dissonance, but always stronger than the sum of their separate traditions.
A difficult task, but done with apparent ease.

About ZoiD
"This album is dedicated to the memory of Bruce Morley, who passed away on 22nd November 2012. An inspirational person who I'm fortunate to have met. In a short space of time he taught me an incredible amount about music and life." – Daniel Jacobson
ZoiD is one of the many projects of Daniel Jacobson, a Dublin-based musician and producer.
He began using this particular moniker while living in New Zealand in 2005, and it's been his main outlet for jazz-tinged electronica ever since.
In 2006 he was a participant at the Red Bull Music Academy in Melbourne where he attended workshops and seminars with Soundmurderer, Mu-Ziq, Mark Pritchard, Cut Chemist, Derrick May and others.
His first album, "ZoiD Versus the Jazz Musicians of Ireland Vol 1″ (2007, Diatribe) was a battle between ZoiD's electronics and six prominent Irish jazz musicians – "this is either the future of jazz, or the end of jazz as we know it" Cormac Larkin, Sunday Tribune. "wonderful future-bop realms" Jim Carroll, Irish Times.
After taking a three year hiatus for world travelling and meditation, he returned in 2011 with "Sundillion EP" by zoiBand. According to Harmless Noise, this was "…a mesmerising, singular release that melds the spirit of jazz with the ghosts of future sounds".
zoid thanks: lisa, matthew, mum and dad, warren, aoife mooney, robin fuller, dorota konczewska, dennis macnulty, alan o'boyle, eomac, nick and olesya, pawel wysota for the bass notes on jwrong, roger doyle, derek, alan dobbyn, chris o'connore, drew mcmillan

3 slain Ohio students remembered at graduation
Three 2013 class members killed by a teenage gunman at their northeast Ohio high school will be remembered at graduation ceremonies.
Vases of flowers will be displayed at Saturday's Chardon High School graduation for the three victims, Daniel Parmertor, Russell King Jr. and Demetrius Hewlin.
Two students wounded on Feb. 27, 2012, will graduate with their class. A third wounded student graduated last year.
Gov. John Kasich planned to deliver the commencement address. The ceremony was held at the bigger Mentor fine arts center.
T.J. Lane has been sentenced to life in prison for the shooting rampage. He was at Chardon waiting for a bus to the alternative school he attended.

The Clean Water Act has been one of the pillars of environmental protection since its enactment in 1972. Its directive to "restore the physical, chemical and biological integrity of our nation's waters" has given the Environmental Protection Agency and the Army Corps of Engineers a clear mandate to restore water quality, prevent the destruction of wetlands, and ensure that our country's water resources are safe for drinking, recreation, and wildlife.
The Clean Water Act has been under assault by industry forces for more than the past decade, and Supreme Court decisions in 2001 and 2006 that limited agencies' oversight to "navigable waters" have left our waterways in greater danger than at any time since the 1960s – before this landmark law was put into place. These cases have resulted in vital protections being removed from 50 percent of the nation's streams and 20 million acres of wetlands, and studies show that the drinking water of 110 million Americans is at risk of contamination. Our government has little to no ability to prevent the pollution of these waters under current law.
LCV is committed to restoring the scope of the Clean Water Act to ensure that all of America's waterways are protected. We have long supported legislation to accomplish this goal. Until such legislation passes, we are working with the Obama Administration to use the full scope of its existing regulatory authority to protect our nation's water resources.
In an effort to mine coal in the cheapest way possible, mining companies in Appalachia have turned to mountaintop removal mining. These companies use massive amounts of dynamite to blow off the tops of mountains to unearth thin seams of coal. They then dump the leftover waste, full of toxic chemicals, into surrounding streams, destroying fish habitats and poisoning drinking water. To date, more than 500 mountains have been flattened and 2,000 miles of streams have been buried in waste. LCV urges the Administration and Congress to end mountaintop removal mining and ensure clean drinking water for Appalachian communities, primarily those areas of Virginia, West Virginia, Tennessee and Kentucky.
Coal ash is a toxic byproduct produced from the burning of coal. The U.S. currently produces over 140 million tons of coal ash annually. Due to unsafe disposal, this waste can leach into ground water, threatening public health and the environment. Coal ash, which contains hexavalent chromium, lead, mercury, and other deadly heavy metals, is the second largest industrial waste stream in the U.S. and disproportionately affects low income communities. The EPA has the authority to regulate the disposal of coal ash, however, has not used that authority as of yet. In 2010, the EPA released a draft proposal for regulation of coal ash disposal; however, three years later the rule still has not been finalized. LCV works with our coalition partners to encourage the finalization of EPA's proposed rule and defend against attacks in Congress to strip the EPA of its ability to regulate this harmful pollution.

BROOKVILLE — The Jefferson County Commission recently received word that it will likely not be responsible for debt in excess of $1.5 million.
Elk County has agreed to purchase a Ridgway building that Jefferson County was partly responsible for. Elk County plans to use the facility as its 911 headquarters, and the purchase will eliminate Jefferson County's liability for a bond issued to purchase that building.
BIG RUN — Police are releasing further details about a Wednesday incident in which a home was damaged along Main Street in Big Run.
Punxsutawney-based Pennsylvania State Police said the incident occurred at 9:03 a.m. along East Main Street.
Police said William G. Dixon, 59, Indiana, was negotiating a left curve in the road traveling north when his 1999 Western Star tri-axle truck traveled off the right side of the road, striking a PennDOT sign.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — Down 11-4 in the seventh inning, having suffered through four 1-2-3 innings and not scoring since the second inning, the Punxsy baseball team seemed destined to lose its first game of the season to State College Tuesday.
Not these Chucks.
For the second-straight year, the Chucks (3-0) erased a seven-plus run deficit at Rich Kuntz Memorial Field by scoring eight runs in their final inning Tuesday to shock the Little Lions, 12-11.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — Punxsy senior Shawnna Crago wasn't going to let the Lady Chucks softball team lose to St. Marys Thursday afternoon.
Her optimism kept the team going. While it trailed early, she smacked a triple that gave Punxsy a jump start on offense, and her pitching sealed the game.
Crago struck out nine Lady Dutch batters and scored a run to lead the Lady Chucks to a 4-3 win.
Timothy Huntley King (also known as Timothy MacIsaac), 63, died of cancer Wednesday, April 6, 2011, at his home in Creekside.
He was born Feb. 11, 1948, in Syracuse, N.Y., a son of the late Hamilton and Bettye King, both of whom were trained as teachers at Oswego State College. Mr. King's mother taught in the North Syracuse School System until she and her two sons moved to Rochester Mills in 1960, with her second husband, Don MacIsaac, who survives, of Rochester Mills.
Ryan H. Fraser, 28, Clearfield, died Tuesday, April 5, 2011, at his residence.
He was born Jan. 3, 1983, a son of Barbara (Matzie) Irwin, who survives, of Rossiter.
Mr. Fraser attended the Philipsburg-Osceola Area High School and had been employed in retail sales.
He was Christian by faith.
In addition to his mother, surviving relatives include a son, Titan D. Fraser of Clearfield; a sister, Danielle Peace and husband Justin of Punxsutawney; two brothers, Adam Fraser and wife Ashley of Houtzdale, and Justin Neal of Rossiter; three nephews; and a niece.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — Punxsutawney senior Kody Young and Jenna Reitz have had similar high school winter sports careers.
Young, a wrestler, was coached by his father, Buddy Young. He was also one of the top wrestlers on the team since he was a freshman.
Reitz, a basketball player, also had her father, Randy Reitz, as a coach. Midway through her freshman season, she was the starting point guard. She then started at that position for the next 3 1/2-years.
Stanley E. Piekielek, 79, Punxsutawney, died Monday, April 4, 2011, at Punxsutawney Area Hospital.
He was born May 20, 1931, in DeLancey, a son of the late Anthony and Josephine (Pogwizd) Piekielek.
July 14, 1979, he married Shirley Edmondson, who survives.
Mr. Piekielek was a member of St. Adrian Roman Catholic Church, where he was an usher. He also delivered Meals on Wheels.
He was retired from North American Carbon Company.
Marjorie Dickson Staikides, 80, West Chester, died Monday, Feb. 14, 2011, at Paoli Memorial Hospital.
She was born in New Castle, a daughter of William Campbell and Isabel C. (Cutler) Dickson.
Mrs. Staikides grew up in Punxsutawney and attended Grove City College. She was the wife of the late John James Staikides, also of Punxsutawney, who was a respected artist and art teacher in the Kennett Consolidated School District.
After marrying, the couple moved to southern Chester County, where they happily raised their family together.
BIG RUN — A fully loaded tri-axle coal truck caused severe damage to a home when the driver lost control while traveling north on Route 119 (East Main Street) around 9 a.m. Wednesday in Big Run.
Todd Peace, chief of the Big Run Area Volunteer Fire Company, said the driver of the truck said he was cut off by another driver in a gray vehicle while traveling north on Route 119, which caused the truck driver to swerve, leave the road and strike the porch of a house located at 222 East Main St. and cause damage to the sidewalk in front of several other homes.

Spokane County Superior Court Judge Kathleen O'Connor had choice words Thursday for attorneys on both sides of the Jay Mehring civil case.
The wrongful termination and defamation lawsuit filed by the Spokane police detective against the city of Spokane and police Chief Anne Kirkpatrick is set to go to a jury trial Oct. 17, and O'Connor says she's lost her patience with the problems that keep arising.
She ordered attorneys Bob Dunn and Ellen O'Hara to appear before her this afternoon "no matter what" with an agreed upon statement in the case and a list of issues that are in dispute and issues that aren't.
She threatened to hold the lawyers in contempt if they weren't able to do so "because I am sick of this."
The judge also warned that she would have no time to look at motions for reconsideration, "so assume that they're all going to be denied."
At one point, Dunn stood up, but only for a moment. "Counsel, I'm not done. Sit down," O'Connor said.
The judge also picked up a report she said had been submitted that morning in violation of a previous order.
"See this? The one I got today? In the waste basket!" she said, holding up the waste basket and tossing the report inside. "Do you understand how dysfunctional this trial is?"
"Do you understand I never have these types of problems in any other cases?" she continued. "I've just lost my patience with all of you."
O'Connor's criticism came at the end of a hearing in which she ordered the City of Spokane to produce emails regarding its contract with a police department psychologist who's part of a witness tampering allegation by Mehring against Kirkpatrick and city attorneys.
They contend the city didn't renew Deanette Palmer's contract because she had ruled he was fit to return to duty. Ellen O'Hara, an assistant attorney for the City of Spokane, blasted the witness tampering claim in court Thursday, calling it baseless and "literally defaming."
O'Hara said the city has always planned to renew Palmer's contract. City Attorney Rocky Treppiedi "is a very busy man," O'Hara said. "This is a minor $10,000 to $15,000 contract. It was not on top of his list and he didn't get to it. And he even apologized to Dr. Palmer.
O'Hara continued, "What this really is is an attempt by the plaintiff to smear Chief Kirkpatrick and the city" and to use the media to taint the jury pool by building on "all the smearing" from the Otto Zehm-Karl Thompson case.
She called the allegations "an absurd sideshow - one of many that are gong to be attempted to be presented din this case."
"Dr. Palmer is not saying that the city obstructed her. She fell between a rock and a hard place," O'Hara said. "It's clear to Dr. Palmer and the city that the chief wants the contract renewed."
O'Hara also said, "This is beyond unbelievable to me that this is happening," prompting O'Connor to say, "Well, I gather that. Why don't you sit down now."
Dunn emphasized that when asked in deposition if she felt her work with Mehring had adversely affected her contract with the city, Palmer responded, "definitely." But Palmer also said she didn't feel Kirkpatrick did anything unfair regarding her testifying in the criminal trial and that she didn't ahve "beef" with the chief.
"I said clearly that the issue was with the City Attorney's office," Palmer said. (Read the entire transcript of Palmer's deposition here.)
O'Connor said the issue could be discussed during the civil trial, and emails outlining the issue could be entered as evidence. She denied Dunn's request for Palmer's emails but ordered the City to hand over the copies.
"The issue of its relevancy goes to whether or not there's any bias on the part of Dr. Palmer or any attempt to have Dr. Palmer changer her position or testify differently at trial," O'Connor said. "If such an email exists - and I'm not suggesting that it does - that would certainly be relevant."
Mehring, 43, has been on paid leave since Sept. 9, 2010, after Kirkpatrick said he was unfit for duty based on claims he'd made in his lawsuit.
Mehring filed the lawsuit after a jury acquitted him of charges that he'd threatened to kill his wife. Kirkpatrick had put him unpaid leave but reinstated him with back pay and a demotion.

How common is it to gain weight on birth control?

How common is it to gain weight on birth control?
Monday, October 28, 2013
I think I had the flu last week; I had all the classic flu symptoms. What I am wondering is if having the flu will affect the effectiveness of my combination birth control pill? I never vomited or had diarrhea, which I know can affect the pill, but I believe I was running a fever. I didn't take any antibiotics, just some over-the-counter flu medications and ibuprofen.
Friday, September 27, 2013
I've heard that taking antibiotics while on the pill makes the birth control ineffective. Is this true? And if I use another form of contraception (not including a barrier) do antibiotics make those ineffective as well?
Thursday, September 12, 2013
Hi, I was looking into starting the pill to help regulate my periods and acne. If I were to start it would I have to have a pelvic exam?

I just started taking slim quick (diet pills) and I was wondering if it would interfere with my birth control (Lo Estrin 24)?

My Question is, Can i somehow get the Non-Cut Oats & get them steelcut locally, is it much of a big deal?
Besides, Can anyone plz describe the exact Nutrition value variation between Steel cut & other type's of oats available, Calories & carb's description would do alright

Gossip Girl Recap: Turns Out the Only Thing Ridiculous Is Me
Dan never intended to publish a novel that cruelly satirized his friends and family. Charlie was practically forced to assume the identity of an Upper East Side trust-funder. Serena didn't know that her high school reputation as a Champagne-swilling Lolita would haunt her into adulthood. The cast members of Gossip Girl may not make their own beds, but they nonetheless must lie in them, and in last night's episode, everyone was lying in bed alone.
As always, while the majority of our favorite Upper East Siders problems are unimaginable to the 99 percent, some things ring true. We parse them below in our patented reality index.
More Real Than the Blueprint Cleanse Making Another Appearance in a New York Office
• The Gossip Girl item announcing "Lonely Boy's Literary Luck" has a picture of Dan facing the table at last week's dinner with the publishing biggies at at Club A Steakhouse. Which means ... Gossip Girl is Jonathan Karp. Solved! Plus 5. We knew someone that bitchy and incisive had to be in media.
• Dan: "How big can my head get before it explodes?" We don't know, but he's sure testing the limits with that hairstyle. Hahahahahaha urgh sorry no points.
• Blair to Louis: "I don't want your family to think of me as the star of some reality show like Unmarried and Pregnant Princesses or Royally Screwed." Andy Cohen, once again, this show is doing your job for you. Plus 4
• "Every girl needs to get knocked off her pedestal a little," Serena says to Blair, whom she assumes Dan has made the villain of his novel, proving the teen-genre maxim that if a blonde gloats in the first act, she's going to go off in the third. Plus 4
• "Make it go away," says Serena's boss, when she offers her a script described as "American Psycho in Prep School." Ouch, that is cold. No points, just saying.
• Various hints throughout the episode indicate Chuck's character dies alone of autoerotic asphyxiation. (He's hanging in a closet, it was an accident, etc.) But although his tragic death leads him, in the end, to reconsider his life, he still has one very important quibble with the details: "I'd never use a belt," he tells Dan. "I'd use a shahtoosh scarf. It's much softer." Plus 10
• "What's conflated?" says Nate, the Columbia student and media company employee, when Chuck informs him that his character and Eric's have been combined to create "Derek." Plus 2 for that, and Plus 10 for the hilarious hissy fit he throws on the phone with Dan. "Derek? Really?" he yelps. "I can't believe I'm not important enough to merit my own character! I'm one of your best friends, Dan." Dan asks him to hold because Blair and Serena have arrived angry in his office. "Yeah, because they're more important and they got their own characters," Nate sniffs. He later tells Elizabeth Hurley that they're not even friends anymore. Seriously. He might even take him off Facebook.
• "Remind me never to start a juice fast the day you speak to Daniel Day-Lewis." The Gossip Girl version of, "I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue." Plus 5
• By the time Blair has awoken from her two-hour nap, Louis, a non-native English speaker, has already completed Inside. Plus 2
• "Do you even remember the girl you fell in love with?" Serena asks Dan. "Or just that she got so drunk on Thanksgiving that she got grazed by a cab, or that she got married in Barcelona, or slept with not one but two of her professors?" Don't forget the Ostroff Center, the affair with a married congressman, and the whole "killed a man" thing. Or did Dan cut those out because they were a little too-muchy? If so, he may have a better sense of pacing than the show's creators. Plus 6
• Lily is of course not at all upset about her daughter's portrayal, it's what she's been saying for years. Plus 6
• Rufus, on the other hand: "Has-been-turned trophy husband who married for money." Nothing hurts like the truth. Plus 4
• "Just the right amount of pathos," really is such a Times-ian phrase.
• Blair is waking up. Lily is drinking coffee. Serena is wearing a sequined miniskirt. Plus 2
Total: 58
Faker Than Anyone Ever Saying the Words "The Literary World Is Saying Yes to You"
• Good thing no one does anything during the day and therefore are all available to respond immediately to a text message asking them to assemble at the Humphrey's apartment at a moment's notice. Minus 2
• Hey, look, it's authoress Sloane Crosley being introduced to Lily and Rufus. But wait, where is she going, after her line? Doesn't she at least want to shake hands with the author's parents before heading to check out the snacks? What, uh, okay, see you ... Apparently too many book parties take a toll on a girl's manners. Minus 5. Rufus seemed especially disappointed.
• Alessandra the Agent's social skills are also questionable. "God, your character's story is so tragic, even before he dies," tells Chuck. "And the way he dies. All I can think is: How long were you hanging there, before anyone found you?" Minus only 4, because she could be some kind of plant hired to bum Chuck out so hard he actually kills himself. You never really know, with this show.
• Daniel Day-Lewis responds to a request written by Serena. Minus 5
• Daniel Day-Lewis cancels a meeting with a producer about a movie based on rumors about the characterization of her assistant in a novel written by said assistant's 20-year-old boyfriend. Minus 5
• At this point, Louis is like the Candyman. Blair can't even invoke his name without him stepping suddenly out of the shadows behind her. It was absurd when he stepped into the room just as Dan was denying sleeping with Blair, and took it as an admission of guilt, but we laughed out loud when Blair, talking to Serena, said, "I just wish Louis felt the same about me," and we heard his disembodied, "I do." If Louis really wants to have a more trusting relationship with Blair, his first act might be to stop sneaking up on her. Minus 8
• Wait, why did Elizabeth Hurley hire Charlie? Wouldn't she be much more useful to her as an undercover spy? Minus 5
• Dan's agent has to call to tell him the Amazon rankings. As if he wouldn't be checking obsessively on his own. Minus 3
• Also, "his reading at Union Square Barnes & Noble is filling up"? Is Barnes & Noble now taking reservations? Or does she just mean that cat ladies and people on disability have already staked out the prime seating? Minus 5
Total 42
Next week: It's Yom Kippur, the day of atonement. Chuck is once again on the path of redemption, Blair is once again on the path of destruction, and hurray, Wallace Shawn is back to make everything better!

Report a Problem With A Review
of Burgh's Pizza and Wing Pub - Bridgeville, PA
Complete the form below to tell us about the problematic review for Burgh's Pizza and Wing Pub, which says:
"Excellent draft beer selection, inlcuding Kastell and karmeleit Tripel, and Cherish Rasberry which I have not seen before on tap. Had more common belgiums as well: Hoegarden, stella artois, and leffe. They claim 28 beers on tap but this includes michelob, michelob ultra, bud, bud light etc. The thin deck pizza was one of the best I have ever eaten.
The service was OK, but the beer knowledge of the waitstaff was abysmal. The board listed a victory and a stoudt's; the waitress didn't know which beer from that line was available. We finally figured out that the stoudt's was their scarlet lady. I asked what style of beer this was, and the answer came "I'm not sure. I like Bud. I bet it's a pale ale...we get lots of pale ales". No offer to taste a sample or any desire to find more information.
It's just disappointing becuase you want places to "be all they can be". I'd still go back. It's hard to top of the combination of belgiums and fine pizza there. "

|In Second Age Pamaltela in the standard Gloranthan Runequest setting, a Wizard decides to experiment and summon a demon to hold in the Psychic Zoo for study. Meanwhile in Sunnydale, Willow makes herself very noticeable across the multiverse when she raises the Temple and tries to destroy the world in "Grave". In her exhaustion afterwards, her defenses are weak, and the summoning captures her.
What happens when she awakens and talks with her captors? She could recover and wreck the place, but that would be boring. She could have hostile but not immediately violent talk with her captors. She could escape by herself, and have extreme difficulty dealing with the weird Bronze Age setting where everyone has a little magic, Gods exist and are noticeable, intelligent non-human species are common, Trolls eat _anything_, Elves have wood for bones, and Broos—let's not speak of them. One could make this an interesting travelogue.
She does want to get back to Sunnydale, however, and she learns of Heroquesting, where one follows the myths of the Gods in the Hero Plane to try to get Godly benefits. One might be the power to go home.
One could choose different times and destinations instead. She could end up at Third Age Pavis and the Puzzle Canal, the Eternal Battle in Prax, or a strange chaotic experiment by the mages supporting the Red Emperor.
Meanwhile, Buffy, Dawn, Xander, and Giles all want to recover Willow. Dawn, as the Key, actually has the power to open a connection to Glorantha; they could go there and try to track her down. And finally, Xander could learn some magic.
I don't see any crossovers with this particular RPG; it would deserve its own subcategory in the Fantasy Game section.
