H.E. Ato Hailemariam DesalegnPrime Minister (a.i.) and Minister of Foreign AffairsMinistry of Foreign AffairsFederal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia
Your Excellency,
I have learned with profound sadness of the passing of Prime Minister Meles Zenawi after a period of illness. I would like to take this opportunity to convey my most sincere sympathy and commiseration to the government and people of Ethiopia for the tragic loss of a great leader.
Prime Minister Meles Zenawi's will always be remembered for his significant contributions to development and prosperity in Ethiopia. Under his leadership, Ethiopia embarked on a great number of energy and infrastructure projects, while the number of hospitals and schools throughout the country has surged tenfold and economic growth has been strong for the last seven years.
With the Prime Minister's strong leadership and commitment to reducing the burden of the three diseases, HIV, TB and Malaria, Ethiopia has made great progress in stabilizing and decreasing national prevalence rates. We express immense gratitude for the late Prime Minister's active support for the Global Fund and for the increased engagement of the government of Ethiopia with the Global Fund and with other partners on health issues generally. Having been a student of Medicine himself, the Prime Minister's personal devotion to health issues in the country has been internationally recognized.
On behalf of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria; and on my own behalf, allow me to offer our deepest sympathies and most sincere condolences for this tragic loss to Ethiopia and the family of the late Prime Minister Meles Zenawi.
Please accept, Your Excellency, the assurances of my highest consideration.
Gabriel Jaramillo, General Manager of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria
The Global Fund is committed to the highest standards of accountability and responsibility. If you have heard of any instance of inappropriate use of money related to the Global Fund, please report it immediately, here: Report Fraud and Abuse

Women Swept at CSS
last modified 2012-04-21 05:15 PM
DULUTH, Minn. - The MLC women's tennis team was unable to generate a point against conference-leading St. Scholastica in a 9-0 loss Saturday.
The Knights were swept in doubles by the scores of 8-4, 8-1 and 8-1, and then lost all six singles matches in straight sets.
The closest MLC player to taking a set was Michelle Hintz, who lost her number five singles match 6-0 and 6-4.
With the loss, MLC dropped to 2-7 overall and 2-3 in the UMAC, while CSS improved to 14-6 on the season and 8-0 in league play.
MLC will return to action on Monday, April 23, when it travels to UM-Morris for a match scheduled to begin at 3 p.m.

Who are the "victims" of our national Lebanese pageants? And how sure are you that you know them all by name?
We did some research, and we came up with about 17 gorgeous women who were doomed to fail due to pageant rigging, and outside interference.
This weekend we will reveal them to you one by one.
PS: This is not to discourage anyone from participating in Miss Lebanon as the contest will be closely supervised by the Ministry of Tourism from now on. It is just a reminder of the unforgettable "crimes" committed by the old organizers, and it is also an homage to women who could have done much better than the chosen winners in international pageants, so stay tuned!

Anyone know about Maryville's FNP program? - page 22
I am writing to see if anyone has attended or heard good things about Maryville University's FNP program? They are starting a new online FNP program next year, but am kind of leery because I am not able to find much about the... Read More
- 0Oct 31, '12 by diva31Hi everyone. I am new to the Forum, but have been reading through all the pots ad comments and it is awesome.I just received my acceptance letter today for the NP program at Maryville..So excited but nervous. Nursegirl2001 and everyone else who has already began the program, any tips I should know and whats next after the acceptance letter? How do I join the Facebook page? Thanks guys. I think this is awesome.God bless.
- 0Oct 31, '12 by nursegirl2001Diva31:
Hooray and congrats on your acceptance at MVU (Maryville University). It is challenging but doable. I just started my second class and it is a literature review class of evidence-based practice information. We have group assignments, reading assignments, and individual assignments every week. The information is very, very interesting. The first few classes are research courses but we have to have them. You have to know how to write in APA format. If you can do that as well as understanding the content, you're good. Don't be afraid to ask the instructor questions about the assignment. After your acceptance letter you will be sent a form to formally accept your position in the program so be on the lookout for that. Get your financial aid all together so that you are ready to go come enrollment !!! Order your books before classes. The program is intense but it is not impossible. Just manage your time and get the work done promptly. I am elated to be in the program. It can be frustrating at times, but thank God and keep right on pushing and be prayerful more than anything. I ask God to cover me all of the time because I need it. Go to Facebook and go Maryville NP class of 2014...... I believe that is correct.... Every week we have a discussion question to answer and group assignments with articles to use to answer the questions. That is about all that I can tell you. I do not start clinicals until January of 2014 but I have already found clinical sites. Find your clinical sites as soon as you can so that you're not scrambling to do so at the last minute. Be proactive. This is your education so take it seriously and you will be rewarded. I hope that this helps.....Oh and celebrate your acceptance !!!!!!!!!
- 0Nov 1, '12 by davidtwells10First of all I just want to say congrats to all of you that have been accepted to Maryville's NP program. This is a little bit off subject but I thought everyone in this forum would be the best to answer my question. I am looking at applying to Maryville's NP program but am concerned on which program to choose. There is the FNP and the AGNP. I work in a cath lab right now and really like cardiac. I think I want to stay with cardiac and work with adults. I like the AGNP for that reason, however I have read that it is sometimes better to get your FNP because you are "more marketable" and have opportunity for more jobs as a FNP vs a AGNP. I do not think I ever want to work with pediatrics, but would it still be better to get my FNP for more job options or should I get my AGNP. Any information would be appreciated. I am planning on applying to start in 2013. Thanks, David
- 0Nov 9, '12 by KevbotHi David, I was thinking the same about the marketability of the FNP vs Acute care (Adult) and I have several friends who started as fnp then were able to get a post masters cert in acute care. Not sure if that helps, but they're able to go anywhere they want with those credentials. Best of luck in your career!
- 0Nov 11, '12 by diva31Thanks a lot Nursegirl2001 for a ll the good information ad tips. That has really helped. Now I do kind of have a idea on what to expect. Any you are so right, prayers are of most importance during this time.As far as clinical sites... are you using different clinical sites;example, different hospitals,clinics,etc. I am doing the AGNP..and I was already talking to some Physicians and Nps in my area (San Antonio)..mostly at my hospital.What do you think?Again thank you.I would like to get my books already but I do not know what book I need as of yet. I do know I will begin with NUR 600 tho..Do you know what book I need for that course?Best of luck to you and everyone else in the program or planning to attend.
- 0Nov 18, '12 by LandDRN2007I have read through every post here and have gotten some excellent info from everyone! I have just begun the process, and am getting a second call tomorrow from my advisor to let her know if I want to go through with this. It sounds like it'll be hard work, but it's nice to get feedback on people actually going through the program to shed light on things. I work 3 nights a week and have 2 young children at home, so that was one concern- my other concern, was the cost. Think I will look into loan forgiveness options- does anyone have any good advice on this topic? For those in the program: how many hours per week do you actually spend studying? Thanks everyone, glad I found this thread!
- 0Nov 18, '12 by mrvlegovLandDRN2007 if you email me we can chat.
- 0Nov 20, '12 by flamingopark2I was informed today that they got my last recommendation letter and my package is completed. I am hoping to start in May. I hope that Financial aid covers for the summer as well.
- 0Dec 1, '12 by mrvlegovTo all those who were wondering about the program. It has so many glitches and the assignments are pretty unclear, teachers expect somethng different but its not specified, the first class was alright, second class terrible. I'm going to switch to another school at this point as I got accepted into a different school. The program hopefully will improve as time goes on, but at this time I think the general consensus is not very positive at this time from our class. Good luck and maybe it will have improved by the time you all start!

|They DO have it at Michaels! All this time I've looked and searched and even asked and no dice. Then I find out from the poly clay e group that Michaels keeps it in the kids' area, right by the Faster Plaster! Hah!
I can hardly wait to try it. I've just been too under the weather since I found it.
Follow-Up Postings:
|Seems like I have seen it there. It has many applications although I haven't used it much. It was one of those "had to have it" things.
Been sick?
|I found it today at Michael's right where you said it would be. On the lable it says Bakable transfer and color medium and says make transfers from black & white color photos, color laser prints,colored pencil drawings.
I found my box of clays and promise to start doing something soon.
Michael's also had a big bin with books and phamplets reduced to $1 and up
|Minnie, I didn't know that about the transfers. I bought it mainly so I could attach two clay pieces and rebake, using the LS as a glue. I wasn't sure I wanted to try it with plain old glue.
Of course I want to try some more creative applications, too. Looks like I need to look over the insert that came with it again. I scanned over the Sculpey site but they don't seem to have many projects for it.
I'll be looking for ideas with a more open mind now that I have some.
(Oh, Rosie, thanks for asking; I had a nasty cold --well, aren't they all...? I couldn't do any paper crafts 'cause I would have huffed, and puffed, and sneezed the paper away. :-/ Glad to be on the mend!)
|I'm reading from the back of the insert
Add non toxic oil paints to make a bakable painting and surface medium
Add dry pignments to create glazes and color washes
Create stained glass effect suncatchers and window clings
Use with polymer clays for
a bakable adhesive
grout for mosaics
creating faux enameling
A translucent glaxzing and polishing medium
Hope that helps
|Thanks Minnie!
I finally found my insert. Yay!
I've tried the LS as glue a couple times now and had good results. Well, I didn't expect otherwise, but just thought I'd report. :-)

Horace McCoy: They Shoot Horses, Don't They?
Regular readers need no introduction to my weakness for any imprint with 'Classics' in its name. Why is this? Something to do with my belief that there are more fine forgotten books out there than great new ones being published; and that someone somewhere must have had a strong belief in it to bother reissuing a title that's going to forego the usual publicity opportunities. New in such series, and very interesting, is Serpent's Tail Classics, which has issued eight titles so far, including books by Fernando Pessoa, George Pelecanos, Elfriede Jelinek and Walter Mosley. Some of the range are books I'd always been vaguely aware of, but never had any interest in: like Chester Himes' If He Hollers Let Him Go, and this one.
They Shoot Horses, Don't They? (1935) hadn't interested me before because I thought it was some sentimental nonsense about horses. I knew there was a film adaptation and – …reflecting on it, I am slightly embarrassed to admit that I think I confused it with National Velvet. So, there are no horses in this book. Rather, it's a skinny and brutal account of existence at the edge of Depression America.
My normal policy with reviews is to avoid all spoilers, but it's hard to do that here because the outcome is revealed to us at the beginning. Yet the fact that the book treads a line between deceptively simple and just plain simple, and my nagging suspicion that there's not much more to it than what we see on the surface (interesting though that is), raises doubts as to whether I should discuss the plot completely, or not at all. So caveat lector.
The book opens with words delivered in court as Robert Syverten, our narrator, is sentenced to death for the murder of Gloria Beatty. If this is a crime novel, its journey is not to show who did it, but how he got there. As it turns out, there's no mystery here either: from the start, we know that Robert murdered Gloria as a favour to her. "She did not die in agony," he tells us. "She was relaxed and comfortable and she was smiling. It was the first time I had ever seen her smile." But that doesn't matter to the court.
They are going to kill me. I know exactly what that judge is going to say. I can tell by the look of him that he is going to be glad to say it and I can tell by the feel of the people behind me that they are going to be glad to hear him say it.
They might be glad to hear him say it so that they don't have to think about people like Gloria any more. She is someone for whom life has no meaning. "It's peculiar to me," she says, "that people pay so much attention to living and so little to dying. Why are these high-powered scientists always screwing around trying to prolong life instead of finding pleasant ways to end it?" And elsewhere: "More and more and more I wish I was dead."
If the book gives us not much impetus to find out how Gloria ends up dead, nor does it give any journey for the reader to discover why she is the way she is. (The book is neither whodunit nor whywantit.) We have some background information on her troubled childhood, but otherwise nothing. She just is. Simone de Beauvoir described They Shoot Horses, Don't They? as "the first existentialist novel to have appeared in America." Another handy label for Gloria might be 'nihilistic', but it would be unfair to suggest that the book leaves it at that. We get a microcosm of the society which may have helped create Gloria in the dance marathon event which she and Robert enter shortly after meeting. "Free food and a free bed as long as you last." The dance marathon is as symbolic as you might expect: held in a dancehall on the end of a pier – at the end of the world – with nothing but the sea beneath. "Through the balls of my feet," Robert tells us, "I could feel the ocean surging against the pilings below."
The marathon goes on for weeks – well, it's a marathon – and the relentless grind of it, pleasure turning to punishment, is a not too heavily disguised analogue for Gloria's experience of life.
Past a certain point you kept moving automatically, without actually being conscious of moving. One minute you would be travelling at top speed and the next moment you started falling.
The organisers pass up no opportunity to promote the event, through public marriage ceremonies between the contestants, representing, I suppose, the cynicism of corporate America exploiting the little man who is already suffering. Subtlety is not much present here, and you can see in the book its origins as an unproduced screenplay. Nonetheless, the singleminded power of the book holds through to the end, and even if it's one to read but not to reread, it's certainly worth one walk through, which won't take long anyway. This Serpent's Tail Classics edition comes with an introduction by John Harvey, and a valuable essay on McCoy by William Marling. Among other things, we learn that McCoy sold a screenplay in 1951 for $100,000 (how much would that be now?), and died so penniless four years later that his widow had to sell his books and jazz records to pay for his funeral.

This is the kind of book that right-wingers hate. I read it years ago and loved it, glad you're drawing attention to it, John, and I'm glad it's being re-issued.
Chester Himes: it's a funny one, that. I bought a collection of three of his novels years ago, tried it, admired it but felt no urge to return to any of the work. I don't know why that is, still.
I am a right-winger, but enjoyed this book. What I do hate, however, is an idiot who is obsessed with conservatives and always makes generalizations about them.
The 1969 film, starring Jane Fonda, and directed by Sidney Pollack, was very very good. Burned in my memory. I didn't know it was based on a novel.
I saw the film as a teenager and it's brutal portrayal of the jobless in the Depression made a big impression on me politically.
I suppose it's an assumption of mine that drawing attention to such an uncomfortable truth, rather than them mulling it, right-wingers, Tories, in my experience, tend to disproportionately shirk stuff like the 'nihilism' and the scenario that unfolds in the book. It's stuff to brush under the carpet for some people. That's my experience.
OH. MY. GOD. NotLOL – I did not mean to put that apostrophe in its. It is not a contraction, it's a possessive. Fucking predictive text, go to hell.
I couldn't resist the question and have discovered that $100k in 1951 would be approximately $860k today.
This title seems to have caused a few mix-ups (Lee and Linda excepted): I knew it was a film starring Jane Fonda but for some reason I thought it was about either the Civil War or Vietnam or possibly a Civil War based allegory of Vietnam. Hmmm.
And I've used 'experience' once too many times there – I could pretend it was for emphasis but it was just ill-thought scribbling to blame.
$860k – not bad but I bet the meerkat got way more for his memoir.
Lee, the right-wing reaction you describe strikes me as analogous to the reaction provoked in anyone left of Mussolini by Ayn Rand (and now, Glenn Beck [shudder]).
Totally. As for Glenn Beck and his 'An Incovenient Tour' one-man show thingy…
A friend of mine who'd spent the first thirty years of his life avoiding reading once asked me to recommend a 'proper book' that wouldn't be 'too boring or too long'.
I couldn't think of anything that fitted the bill better than They shoot horses.
It may be somewhat simplistic, but I still think it have tremendous power and the kind of focus and directness that's sadly lacking in much modern writing, where 130 pages can pass without a great deal happening.
For all its failings, I'd be surprised if many people read it and felt unmoved by it.
There is an inflation calculator online. It says this: What cost $100000 in 1951 would cost $816977.20 in 2009.
The film was great – with Jane Fonda I think. I read the book after seeing the film and I think I got more interested in the sociological bits than the narrative but it was an awfully long time ago. There's an interesting acount of the 30's dance marathons in the autobiography of June Havoc who was Gypsy Rose Lee's sister. It's called Cry Havoc and is also an account of growing up as a child star in vaudeville with a monstrously pushy mother .
Haven't read Horace McCoy: They Shoot Horses, Don't They? but i did Excerpt-Read Carson McCullers' The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter, which also has one of these catchy 1960's novel titles, like Ken Kesey's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1962), Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird (1960), Maya Angelou's I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings. Some 1960's films have them as well: Tony Richardson's The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner (1962), for example.. So much so that you'll rightly feel that you've already read them, or seen them, before you've actually laid a hand on them..
Great review. Makes you think if Robert Smith had read this before The Stranger we might have ended up with Killing a Dancer.
As a result of my posting here, Serpents Tail sent me a copy. Thank you.
It's been about 4 years since the last comment, it seems. I wonder if you will read this. Maybe I will remember to return and see.
So anyway, it's all mine today I guess. I remember seeing this film on TV some moody Saturday or Sunday afternoon when I was young and it firmly established something that was not in my youthful frame of reference – until then – that life could be "not worth living" AND you can end it. Whew! What a thing to realize for a kid who is just, you know, living and eating cereal… and as far as kids are concerned that could go on forever! (As long as there's Christmas and birthdays – that's a pretty good deal.) Anyway, I don't think your review was as dismissive of the book as you might feel. the story is a simple premise, journey and conclusion and not one to revisit for entertainment purposes. I don't know why Michael Sarrazin andt his film crossed my mind today, but I found your review and thought I'd chime in.

Tyrone Finally Defeated In Zoning Lawsuit
In 2004 the worst government in the history of Tyrone passed new zoning that took away property rights and caused a property owner to sue in 2007. After 3 years of fighting in State & Federal Courts over condemnation and being fought to a standstill the government finally gave up upon advisement of their lawyers and agreed to recognize vested rights by grandfathering in all those property uses that were taken illegally.
In a May 3rd 2010 letter to the Plaintiff's lawyers, Tyrone Lawyer Dennis Davenport said, "that the Town of Tyrone would not deny any requests by your client to continue a non-conforming use or make any decisions which would impact the vested rights. The town stands ready to issue appropriate permits to your client".
It will be left up to the Superior Court of Fayette County to decide on the damages for this unconstitutional taking without just compensation.

The boys who are enjoying curvy girl cam sex chat session will get crazy because of the curves on this brunette naughty bitch are amazing. She has the body of a real woman and those big and magnificent jugs are ready to bounce when she gets banged from behind by your hard cock. She is a sexy lady who is not afraid to have thrilling and kinky public action, just like in this picture in which she got naked in the mall's parking lot and suck a little bit of cock in the middle of the day. Her wide ties are shaking whenever she gets fucked in the ass from behind and her delicious cunt has just a little bit of sexy hair on top of the clitoris. This kinky brunette babe is ready to make you feel like you are in heaven and if she puts her meaty leg around your neck while you have your head buried in her wet pussy, she will surely cum right into your mouth while you lick her pink and delicious hole. You can have this babe for a naughty live sex cam show right now.
The couple who is having amazing and naughty sex on a bench from a park in this picture is super kinky. They love to have naughty experiences like this and as you can see, that skinny babe with blonde hair has a very tight pussy and that lucky dude has an amazing cock, so you can imagine that their adventures are not exactly quiet. If you want to watch some xxx porn videos with this couple, you are making the right decision, because their amateur porn clips will make you cum like professional movies can't and your cock will be so grateful.
The magnificent ass of a horny Russian MILF
This super horny and hung transsexual babe is ready to play with her cock in front of the webcam just for you. If you ever wanted to have some shemale camsex with a busty bitch like this one, but you never had the chance, means that you never tried this babe, who is ready to play naughty for you in front of the cam and move her sexy ass around until you shoot all the sperm out of your balls for you. She is ready to make you cum like no woman will ever be. Her big boobs will look absolutely amazing when she will cum all over them while she will jerk off with her ass in the air and with a dildo jammed in it. The look in her eyes is telling us that she can't wait to taste her own jizz, but she will only cum when you will let her too. She will ask you if she can cum while you will have your first orgasm and her naughty voice will make it way more intense. Even if you have tried transexuals live cams before, this babe is still able to amaze you.
White girl is trying to suck and fuck with this big cock
I have to say that this girl is really trying her best to make this big black cock jizz in this porno from 4tube.com. She's doing her best and to be honest, she's doing a great job. from the first to the last moment of this entire video this slut is trying to get all that cock inside her mouth and pussy. Just hit the play button to see how hard this girl is trying to swallow his cock and deepthroat it… she can't but she's still trying. That dick is getting squeezed by this girl in all her holes but who doesn't like that? The best sex you can have is with a chick that has tight holes. Even though this guy find every hole tight, we all still want to have these things. Anyway, back to the porn video, after this girl is done cock sucking this black stud, she then leans on her back and spreads her legs so she can get fucked… damn… I just love the way her pussy can barely swallow that dick and she's squeezing it so nicely. Don't these sort of things make you jealous?
I know that you've probably heard it before but I just wanted to make sure that you understand why these big tits girls like big cocks so much. It's obvious that they need a lot more to chew on whenever they get naked with a guy but the main reason why these girls like big cocks is because they wanna have something to squeeze and rub in between their titties. You can see it in her eyes that GeorgianaGee is a busty girl with big naked tits who just loves it when a guy and his big cock wanna get in between her big boobs.

It's the loneliest feeling in the world to find yourself standing up when everyone else is sitting down. To have everybody look at you and say "what's the matter with him?" I know what it feels like. Walking down an empty street covered with snow, listening to the sound of your own footsteps. Shutters closed, blinds drawn, doors locked against you. And you aren't sure whether you're walking toward something, or if you're just walking away.

Why has mankind had such a craving to be imposed upon? Why this lust after impossing creeds, deeds, buildings, laungage, and works of art ? The thing becomes an imposition and a weariness at last.

To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter; to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird's nest or a wildflower in spring - these are some of the rewards of the simple life. ~John Burroughs

The fifth annual fundraising bike ride in aid of the 'Keep It Up' campaign began in the early hours of Wednesday 23 April, when Siddall & Hilton's sales director Neil Sutcliffe and his fellow cyclists travelled down to Arsenal's Emirates Stadium ready to start the 250 mile ride. After collecting their bikes, they were on their way to Cambridge, the first of three overnight stops.
Day Two saw the cyclists pedal 70 miles to Leicester in glorious weather, some making a short detour to have photos outside the King Power Stadium. Bad weather hit on Day Three of the ride though, which was rainy and drizzly all along the 80 mile route with some challenging (and very muddy) cycle paths on the way to Doncaster.
On Day Four the cyclists had a 40 mile journey into Huddersfield stopping at PPG Canalside where they were greeted by their friends and family and heard speeches from Huddersfield Town Commercial Director Sean Jarvis, YAA Head of Fundraising Paul Gowland and Chairman Dean Hoyle, thanking all those who took part.
Neil, who has completed 2 Pedal for Pounds bike ride, said: "To get 300 people doing it for the fourth year on the trot is a credit to everybody. I am aching but it's been good. It was an excellent ride, superbly organised and a decent route, and the Guiness on route was superb!"
Siddall & Hilton, their customers and suppliers made kind donations, Neil raised over £1500 and would like to thank everybody who contributed. Neil also fund raises for Yorkshire Air Ambulance.

|What all is involved in installing a drip rail along the roof of a trailer house? What size is recommended? Does anyone know of a place online with illustrated instructions? I want to make sure it's done right, and need to know what is all needed. How is it sealed so that the water goes INTO it and not down the wall, causing leakage and wall/siding problems???
Follow-Up Postings:
|Are you talking about rain gutters, or something else?
|Yes, rain gutters.
|I don't honestly know specifically, but is there even an inch or so of overhang that the inside edge of the gutters can sit under so water won't get between them and the place? Can you post a picture of your house or at least the interface area of the roof and sides?
|There is about an inch of overhang there. Would it be better to use a drip rail or put gutters on?
If this link doesn't work, there's one under "Desperately Needing Opinions" in this forum as well.
Here is a link that might be useful: Our Mobile Home
|Well, I have no idea what a drip rail is, so can't comment, but that is a pretty tiny overhang. You may want to ask different dealers what they suggest.

Im so sick of all this back and forth nonsense with Johan Santana. The Yankees will be fine with or without him. Im not about to sit here and tremble in the corner if Boston gets him. Good for them. We need to become a better team as a whole, not just this one pitcher was going to come and save the empire. The talent is there, we will just have to wait and see how it shapes up. So I think everyone needs to stop whining about him going to Boston.
Peace out suckas,

Tender Morsels
by Margo Lanagan
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This one is a mind bender for sure, but if you have the patience and enjoy fantasy, it's a very worthwhile read. I ended up really enjoying it, but I know a lot of people don't like it.
I was really excited to read this book because I love fairy tale retellings. This is a fairy tale retelling of Snow White and Rose Red. I have heard mixed things about this novel and after reading it I can understand why. Some parts are beautifully written and some are incredibly boring.
Liga has had a horrible childhood and preteen existence. At fifteen she has a small child (who is her father's) and is pregnant with another (from rape by town boys) when a magical being grants her life in her personal heaven. In this peaceful place, that is Liga's ideal world, she raises her two daughters Branza (Snow White) and Urdda (Rose Red). Urdda is especially eager to seek out adventure and when a very manlike bear shows up, Urdda decides there must be a way out of this world. As the two worlds start to collide things begin to unravel.
Okay let's get the controversial issues out of the way. Yes there is a lot of uncomfortable material in this book. Liga is raped by her father many, many times and abused by him after her mother dies. Her father forces abortion on her more than once. These scenes aren't explicit but you know what is going on. At first Liga doesn't think much of it, just that she doesn't like what her dad does in a kind of ambiguous way, but as she grows older she realizes how wrong it was. Is it pretty and fun to read about? No. This is however written about is a tasteful way that comes off more as sad than as sensationalist. I don't think it's a bad thing for young adults to read about rape and abuse, it helps them know when things are wrong and what types of situations to avoid.
Liga is then raped by a bunch of town boys one of which is colored. There has been a lot of uproar about the fact one of the rapists is colored. This confuses me because she is raped by multiple boys. Most of them are white and one is colored. She happens to get pregnant with the colored rapist's child. This child ends up being Urdda who is "red-skinned" and wild and causes a lot of trouble. Many people see this as racist for some reason, but I think they need to consider the original fairy tale. Snow White (Branza) is always portrayed as the rule follower and is always as white as snow in hair and face. Rose Red (Urdda) is always portrayed as having some sort of red feature (hair, skin color, whatever) and is the wild rule breaker. I saw this whole issue as more of Lanagan being true to the fairy tale that she was retelling than really isolating a certain skin color of person. Also most of the rapists and evil people in this story are white...so how is that racist? Anyway, that's just my take on it.
Okay, now we have most of the controversial issues out of the way. Let's talk about the story. Liga is a victim, she was raised that way and she has trouble choosing for herself. Liga, likes having someone to tell her what to do. When bad things happen to her she deals with them and moves on, it is practical and very sad all at once. She is definitely used to no one caring if she is in pain. She tries to raise her daughters differently, but trapped in her personal Heaven there isn't a lot of conflict around to teach them how to deal with real life.
Branza and Urdda end up both being strong characters in their own ways and I enjoyed them a lot. Both of them are a bit rebellious and learn different ways of coping when they are forced to leave Heaven and make their way through the conflict that is the real world.
I liked how there was a time difference between the two worlds, this difference in time flow added a lot of interesting aspects to the story. I liked how the two worlds were tied together by certain commonalities.
The beginning of this book is beautifully written and wonderfully paced. However for me things started to fall apart in the middle of the story. We start to jump around willy nilly between different points of view. Sometimes we hear from Branza, Liga or Urdda...then we also start to hear from the Dwarf and the boys who dress up as Bears.
This is where things start getting a bit weird. The boys who dress up as Bears for Bear Day in the real world turn into real bears when they fall into Heaven. There one of the bears befriend the three women. This gets weird because Liga kind of falls in love with Bear. The women do not know these Bears are men. Then second Bear comes to Heaven and he likes to grope Branza with his bear paws and mess around with the female bears in the forest. Not only is some of this kind of odd and disturbing...it just gets plain old boring. I mean really we could have cut 200 pages out of the middle of this book and been just fine; the pacing was just completely off.
Well, I have already written a book about this book...so I am not going to say much more. It's kind of a shame the middle was so bogged down because some of this book is beautifully written and there are some really neat ideas in here.
Overall some parts were beautiful, some parts were downright weird, and some were just plain old boring. I love some of the ideas here, but the story just lags at points. This was one of those books by the time I got to the end I was just absolutely relieved to be done with it...it felt like it went on forever. I wish I could recommend this, but I just don't think it is a book most people will enjoy.
Beautiful, but very difficult to get through.
I am left feeling disturbed and sad. I'm not sure which of these emotions is stronger.
How many times must poor little Liga get her heart shattered, Ms. Lanagan?! How many times must her very soul be shattered before our eyes?! How many?!
Tender Morsels takes place in two very different worlds. The real world and Liga Longwood's dream world.
In Liga's dream world all the people that wronged her or judged her are gone. Everyone here is happy, healthy, and peaceful. And why shouldn't they be? This is the place of her heart's desire, is it not? There is no alcohol, money, violence, or anything that would frighten or hurt her and her 2 daughters, Branza and Urdda.
Everything bad was left behind in the real world. The world she escaped, with the help of a "moon-babby", after a horrible deed was committed on her when she was 15.
Liga knows what it's like outside of this world. She doesn't want to return.
Her youngest daughter Urdda, however, knows nothing of the outside world. She was born in this safe place. All she knows of the other world are stories her mother tells her.
This other place fascinates Urdda.
Her hopes of going to the other world are further sparked when she sees a "littlee-man" disappear in the river. She tells herself that next time she sees him, she will follow him, for surely he knows how to navigate both worlds.
Just remember, little Urdda, curiosity killed the cat.
If this dream place were somehow taken from these ladies, would they be able to survive out in the real world? Where neighbors can't be trusted and people don't always have the best intentions, no matter how nice they seem? Or will the cruel ways of this world destroy them?
Tender Morsels is a retelling of Snow White and Rose Red.
Incest, rape, bestiality.
If those 3 words make you queasy this book isn't for you. At all.
I can't believe it is considered a YA book...
Like I said before, this book left me both disturbed and sad.
I was either thinking of ways to scrub my brain clean of certain things I had just read or trying not to cry. One of the main characters in this book, Liga, goes through so much just in the first few chapters that I didn't think she would survive it all. I began to question if I was going to be able to make it through this book. Seeing as how it is... extremely "dark".
I was fully prepared to rate this 3.5 stars until I read a paragraph narrated by wild-child Urdda as she passed by her mother's old cottage and it made me tear up. Even now as I'm remembering it it's bringing tears to my eyes... If the ending didn't damn near break my heart I would be giving this book 5 big ol' stars right now. But, sadly, I'm not. I can only take so much sadness in a book, you know.
My heart is breaking for Liga. She was nothing but an innocent and beautiful child who had to endure nightmares since a very young age.
I truly believe life is not fair. And I have never believed it more.
Fifteen-year-old Liga has suffered terrible abuse, sexual and otherwise, at the hands of her father. When he dies, she experiences a brief period of relief, only to find herself subjected to still more suffering in the form of a brutal rape by five young men who regard a girl alone as an easy target. Hurt and full of despair, she goes into the woods with the intention of committing suicide, only to encounter an unexpected magic that sends her into another world, a world free of danger, fear, and unkindness, where she can raise the two daughters who resulted from her abuse in peace. But that world is not exactly real, and it is not possible to stay there forever.
Although you wouldn't guess it from that description, this is based on the fairy tale "Snow White and Rose Red." (Not to be confused with "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," which is an entirely different story, featuring six more dwarfs than this one.) It's an odd fairy tale, really, and it perhaps makes for a bit of an odd novel, but it's an absorbing one. It's very well written, with compelling characters and a subtle sense of fairy tale enchantment, and by the end I found it rather emotionally affecting. But it's also a disturbing story, full of distressing events. Needless to say, those who find descriptions of sexual assault and related horrors unbearable to read should stay away. Those scenes generally aren't exactly graphically depicted, but, man, they don't need to be. And the novel's constant depiction of men -- of most men -- as dangerous sexual predators is deeply depressing, and, for me, at least, almost got to be a little too much.
[N]othing in the world of adult summer reading can compare with the revolutionary content of a novel you are likely to find in the young adult section of your local bookshop. Tender Morsels ... is funny, tragic, wise, tender and beautifully written. It also left me gasping with shock.
Drawing alternate worlds that blur the line between wonder and horror, and characters who traverse the nature of human and beast, this challenging, unforgettable work explores the ramifications of denying the most essential and often savage aspects of life. It isn't easy, but this book is nevertheless a marvel to read and will only further solidify Lanagan's place at the very razor's edge of YA speculative fiction.

The Angels (42-44) need to sweep this weekend to avoid taking a losing record into the All-Star break. They'll get the three-game series at Seattle started with Jerome Williams facing former Angel lefty Joe Saunders at 7.
Williams has struggled in his past two starts, allowing 11 earned runs in 4 2/3 innings. And the Angels haven't fared well against lefties. On Tuesday they had trouble with Cubs lefty Travis Wood.
And it doesn't get any easier the rest of the weekend, with the Mariners starting Felix Hernandez and Hisashi Iwakuma. Even though the Angels have had better results than most teams against Hernandez, he's still one of the best pitchers in the majors.
As they try to get the series started with a win, here's the Angels lineup...
Erick Aybar SS
Mike Trout CF
Albert Pujols DH
Howie Kendrick 2B
Josh Hamilton LF
Mark Trumbo 1B
Alberto Callaspo 3B
Chris Iannetta C
Collin Cowgill RF
And the Mariners...

Finding Minnesota: Mankato's Million Lights
Get Breaking News First
MANKATO (WCCO) – If you're into huge holiday lights displays, there's a new one in Minnesota that's worth a road trip. It's already one of the brightest in the state in just its second year.
The Kiwanis Holiday Lights display is in Mankato's Sibley Park. It features more than a million LED lights and a skating rink along with Santa and four reindeer. It's free to walk or drive through it.
Scott Wojcik, a self-described "Christmas fanatic," came up with the idea a few years ago when he saw a giant holiday lights display in his hometown of Marshfield, Wisconsin.
At the time, Wojcik was president of the Mankato Kiwanis Club.
"With my volunteer group, I said 'you know what, guys, I think we can pull this off,'" he said. "We've got the drive and the commitment. And sure enough, it's a reality now."
It's an example of what can happen when opportunity meets up with generosity.
"We had over 100,000 people come through Sibley Park last year," Wojcik said, "and that's during the winter time where it's normally very quiet around Mankato.
"The walking tunnel and the driving tunnel are all synchronized to lights and to music so you can either walk and listen to it outside or you can be in your car and tune into a radio station that plays the music," Wojcik added.
The Kiwanis Holiday Lights display happens because of big donations from local companies and a big turnout from volunteers.
People from 72 nonprofits keep things running each night. The groups, in turn, benefit when visitors donate food or money at the gate.
There's still room in the park for expansion, assuming they can keep lining up volunteers and the miles of extension cords.
"Last year, we figured it was about six miles and this year we're probably closer to eight," said Kyle Mrozek, treasurer of Kiwanis Holiday Lights.
It's the power of light and the power of community that promise to make this a long-lasting gift to the area.
"But it's also to put Mankato on the map as a regional center," Mrozek said, "and to help draw people in."
In its first year last year, Kiwanis Holiday Lights collected 13 tons of food for local food shelves, and netted $36,000 in donations for local charities.
It runs every night through New Year's Eve.

I don't have to all of a sudden now become fucking Marilyn Manson if I'm gonna define it as goth," says Yonnas Abraham of the music his band BLKHRTS is making. "I just gotta...be obsessed with romance, obsessed with death, and obsessed with the color black.
"Sex, drugs, violence, money, death, romance and the color black — those are the seven things I could specify my songs are about," he notes. "These are the things in life that are easy to learn and take forever to master. These are the things that can potentially destroy you. They're the only interesting things to talk about."
Clearly, Abraham enjoys playing with fire. If our overbearing parents are the old gods, then he is Prometheus. If the straight and narrow path is a fresh, undying and ultimately very boring garden, then Eve, flirting with the demon serpent, is a BLKHRT. "People talk about demons, and I think it's like impulses," says Abraham. "Sexuality's an impulse. The majority of human beings feel it like an impulse.... We do have the natural urge to try things, so once you try one of these things, once you taste that, then it's in you and you may never turn back."
Before Abraham's heart turned black, his main focus was fronting one of Denver's most well-regarded acts, The Pirate Signal. BLKHRTS, in fact, began as a side project, a supergroup of sorts featuring Abraham and two of the scene's most ferocious rhymers, Karma and King FOE. "There was this sample from this band called Witchcraft — or, no, it was a Pentagram song," recalls Abraham of what first brought the outfit together, "and I was like, 'I'm gonna make a beat out of this.' And they heard the sample — it doesn't really sound like something you can make a beat out of — and they're like, 'Uh, okay.' And then they came back a week later, and [we] had 'Bloodlines of That Gangster Shit,' which is like the first BLKHRTS song. We still play it to this day."
From the start of BLKHRTS, "there was something that made it seem like this is important," he recalls, "that made me care enough to do it for two years and keep trying at it. People just kept telling me, 'This is where it's at. You should keep doing this.'" Thus BLKHRTS moved into the foreground.
"When I think about it," Abraham muses, "the thing The Pirate Signal lacked was distinct identity. Nobody knew what it was, who was in it, what it looked like, what kind of music we made. Every fucking song sounded different.... Nothing in my career happened until I was able to put it in a fucking box. So I was super-stoked when I found a fucking box.... That seemed like a lot more of a pure way to make music, to start out wanting to do everything until you find what it is not only that you really like, but what you really are."
BLKHRTS is one of the few bands that has taken a label given to them by critics and run with it: "Goth-rap" is how many described the act's sound early on. The term "goth" itself is loaded, and often comes with a stigma. The perception is that goth is made up of white kids wearing whiter make-up, whining about their first-world problems — not exactly an aesthetic you'd instantly associate with hip-hop.
Before it was given a name, BLKHRTS had long been wading in these relatively uncharted waters, the depths of which are now being explored by iconoclasts like Kanye West, who has ventured into that territory. And while, granted, even before that, horrorcore flirted with goth for a long time, nobody has really fully embraced the handle by its four-letter name until now. For Abraham, there is no stigma attached to the designation.
"I don't go to goth clubs," he points out. "I don't hang out with people who have been thirty years claiming goth and painting their face white — and I don't fucking feel like I have to — because I'm just gonna write songs, and I'm just gonna listen to the music, and I'm gonna be fucking me."
That resolute outlook, combined with the act's ferocious style, both live and on record, is likely what convinced Dave Sitek to want to work with BLKHRTS; the TV on the Radio guitarist has signed on to produce some of the group's new music. Listening to BLKHRTS, it's clear that the MCs are first and foremost rappers who have immense respect for the power of the word. The three of them speak fast and loud, and sometimes it sounds like they're screaming at you incoherently — and it's exactly this unadulterated goth-swag that makes them so goddamned fun to listen to.
It'll be a little bit longer before the rest of the world gets to experience this phenomenon, however. JZBL JNKNS, the group's full-length, was originally planned for release this year, but it has been pushed back for now. "There are things we need to take care of," Abraham explains. "I feel like we need to get a little bit bigger. We need to grow into ourselves and really master our fan base and really control our industry.... So it's this unique opportunity to take what we're working on and our growth and measure it, so that when I make that song, it'll be ready to go."
