If your looking to have your skis or snowboard serviced then you are in the right place.
I'm based in Woodford, North East London, I provide a hand tunning service for both skis and snowboard bases and edges, meaning less wear than you would get by having a machine service, which is what most shops would offer, the base doesn't need to be ground every time.
You can choose to have your edges set to the manufactures recommended angles or to your own specification.
Turnaround time is really based on how much work has come in and what your requirements are, its usually two weeks.
My aim is to provide a personal service, you can drop your skis or snowboard off or if you can get to Canary Wharf I'm happy to collect and deliver when I'm visiting at no extra cost.

As presented by David Theroux, well known as president of the Independent Institute, but lesser known as president of the C.S. Lewis Society of California. For what it's worth, here's my favorite Lewis quote:
9:33 am on March 21, 2012 Email Laurence M. Vance
Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Geeky Languages From Movies and TV
14 Geeky Languages to Learn With Your Love
Love may be a universal language, but we're not sure that phrase includes the sci-fi alien races and fantastical creatures that rule the far depths of the galaxy, who express love in words beyond our human comprehension. When you're thinking of a unique way to woo your valentine this year, plan a tutorial to learn together one of these 14 geeky languages. While several of these Trekkie, Tolkien, or computer gaming-inspired languages have enough depth to warrant a university level class, many are not fully realized, so have fun discovering select words and phrases to bring to future geeky date outings.
- Wookie — Made up of three dialects, the main Wookie language is Shyriiwook. As you'd expect it consists of lots of barks and grunts, but don't you dare say that to Chewbacca. The Star Wars Christmas Special has detailed examples of this mystifying tongue.
- Klingon — The language of Klingons, the sometimes ally of the Federation, is arguably the best known of the imagined star languages. Described by its Hollywood creators as gutteral in tone, dedicated Trekkies maintain the Klingon Language Institue, preserving the galaxy's "fastest growing language."
- Vulcan — Known as the language of Spock, one version of Vulcan looks like musical notes. Much of the language is available online today as Gene Roddenberry was insistent when making Star Trek: The Motion Picture that the Vulcans receive their own linguistic treatment.
- Romulan — As biological cousins of the Vulcans, the Romulan language is difficult to differentiate from Vulcan to the untrained ear. The Central Institute of the Romulan Language ensures you get the right training to one day know the difference.
- Cardassian — Residents of the Alpha Quadrant, Cardassians are a fearsome foe of the Federation. Little is known of their language, maybe because of its rectangular-shaped letters and script.
- Andorian — The blue-skinned moon species from Andora appeared throughout the Star Trek series and would of course show up in the directory of a PADD.
- Elvish — With a background in linguistics study from Oxford, Tolkien did not take the creation of the Lord of the Rings languages lightly. Based on Welsh and English, you can study Liv Tyler's Arwen in the film trilogy for pronunciation and read the many online Elvish resources, including an English to Elvish dictionary.
- Dwarvish — Also called Khuzdul, Tolkien is said to have drawn inspiration for the secret language of the Dwarves from Hebrew, reflecting many of the same sounds and structure. As many Lord of the Rings languages, it's been almost fully realized and you can study up with the Dwarvish dictionary.
Check out even more languages to geek out over after the jump.
- Simlish — The official language of SimNation is said to be just made up nonsense, but play the game long enough and you'll see linguistic trends. Look for the times the Sim people slip in a few words of English.
- Dothraki — Game of Thrones fans may have already picked up a few key words of the nomadic Dothraki people's language on the show, but with over 3,000 words it extends quite further than seen in episodes. Developed by a linguist for the show after the books were written, the fan-created Learn Dothraki website can get you up to speed.
- CSS or HTML or Java — Whatever your career, becoming fluent in these computer languages can only enhance your resume. Take time to grow your skill set and learn how to use these programming tools while also finally building a personal website or blog.
- Parseltongue — Learn the language of the serpents by holding a Harry Potter marathon. Try out the Parseltongue translator, though it sounds an awful lot like wind blowing through the halls of Hogwarts.
- Gelfling — The Gelfling people made a brief but memorable appearance in The Dark Crystal. Only male Gelflings can read their ancient language.
- Na'vi — The language of the planet Pandora residents, the Na'vi people, in Avatar was methodically created by a University of Southern California professor. A free iPhone app and website can teach you the language's syntax rules and pronunciation, which the film's actors also learned.

Professor Hall, Head of Anaesthetics and Intensive Care at the School of Medicine also won the Woman in the Community category. Professor Hall's win recognises her work as founder of Mothers of Africa, an educational charity set up in response to maternal mortality figures in Sub-Saharan Africa.
The charity is supported by the medical community in Wales with teams of educationalists, teachers and clinicians from the School of Medicine and NHS Wales traveling to deliver teaching in Benin, Togo and Ethiopia. Earlier this year anaesthetists from the School of Medicine and Cardiff and Vale NHS Trust traveled to Liberia to deliver education about resuscitation and safe anaesthesia.
Speaking after the ceremony, Professor Hall dedicated her success to all those involved in Mothers of Africa, noting in particular the charity's remarkable and tireless fundraisers and trustees.
She said: "There are many others that make this possible. If I didn't have a remarkable department of teachers and researchers in Anaesthetics and Intensive Care Medicine, then I wouldn't have the energy left for Mothers of Africa. Also important is the concrete support of the School of Medicine, in Research, Teaching and Development.
"Cardiff University's support for Africa in its 125th anniversary year was a really important thing to do and the University's support for me personally has been unstinting. Finally, without my many true friends and husband Simon, Mothers of Africa simply wouldn't have happened."
This year, a record number of talented University staff members were shortlisted for awards over three categories. Dr Emma Kidd and Professor Meena Upadhyaya, of the Welsh School of Pharmacy and the Institute of Medical Genetics respectively, were both nominated for Woman in Science and Technology. Dr Isabelle Durance, a researcher in the School of Biosciences, was also shortlisted for the Most Effective Returner to the Workplace category.
Professor Hall is the third University winner of Welsh Woman of the Year, following Mrs Ann Taylor (1999) also based in the School of Medicine's Department of Anaesthetics & Intensive Care Medicine and Professor the Baroness Ilora Finlay of Llandaff, an honorary professor and former Vice Dean of the University's School of Medicine (1994).
The Western Mail Welsh Woman of the Year Awards is an annual event aiming to promote the role of women in the workplace and in every sector of society.
The awards aim to promote the role women have in the workplace and in every sector of society. The awards scheme not only raises awareness, but also reflects and reinforces the changing role of women over the last fifteen years by celebrating their achievements and the value of their contributions to the stability of Wales.

I happen to have an old copy of the Dragon Fist rules and I had a few questions regarding the game as I am preparing to run a campaign with my group.
(1) The creator Chris Pramas stated he created an additional Secret Society, which was printed in Polyhedron magazine. Does anyone know of the issue it was in? I imagine this was the Demon Slayers secret society, as it was mentioned in the game but not shown.
(2) Does anyone know, or have tried, to expand the game to levels 11-20. How was this done, in regards to martial arts maneuvers, spells, etc.
(3) Has there been any fan expansions out there on the net? Adventures, rules, new maneuvers, etc?
Thanks in advance.

Top five bargain destinations for spring 2011
Whether you've got your sights set on Europe, Australia or somewhere closer to home, now is the time to start planning spring travel. The lower prices of spring are the calm before the summer storm of high travel costs and big crowds. This spring, hit an undiscovered wine trail in Europe, find your own Outback, or dine your way through a closer-to-home slice of France, all for less than usual.
Sponsored Links
I've monitored trends, industry news, and sale patterns to point you in the direction of places that offer the best bargain values for the coming season. Below you'll find examples of deals presently available for spring trips. Like all deals, these are sure to expire; however, a little research on your part can yield similar results when you're ready to book.
In true Canadian style, travelers can say both hello and bonjour to bargains in Montreal this spring. More booking options and city-wide hotel deals put North America's taste of France within easy reach of travelers on a budget.
Delta Air Lines and Canadian low-cost carrier WestJet just launched an interline agreement that gives Delta passengers greater access to Canadian destinations—including Montreal—on a single ticket. On May 2, WestJet will also launch additional service between Toronto and Montreal with a unique guarantee: Passengers with flights delayed more than 30 minutes will receive 50% off their next flight on the route.
Tourisme Montreal's current Sweet Deal promotion, which runs through May 31, delivers 50% off a second night's stay, with rates from $115 USD a night at participating hotels. The deal includes free breakfast, high-speed Internet access, and room upgrades, plus extras such as gift certificates, bath products, and wine tastings. The For Foodies packages, with rates from $109 USD per night, come with free metro tickets, discounts on food tours, and exclusive treats at restaurants.
Sure, the cheapest way to visit Australia is to get Oprah to cover it, but even travelers paying their own way can find plenty of ways to vacation Down Under for less this spring. In fact, a major sale sponsored by Tourism Australia brings together many discount options from airlines, tour companies, and vacation package providers.
Travelers looking for flights should check out Qantas' current sale fares to Sydney, starting at $968 (before taxes and fees) from Los Angeles for travel in May. For more specials on airfare, vacation packages, and even guided tours, the Great Aussie Sale is the place to start your search. Here, you'll find deals like round-trip airfare between Los Angeles and two stops in Australia, plus eight nights' accommodations (four nights each in Sydney and Cairns) plus tours from Liberty Travel starting at $1,979 (before taxes and fees) per person; or discounts on guided tours around Australia from Brendan Vacations, Swain Tours, and other companies.
Santa Fe
Affordable activities and hotel discounts make this spring a great time to visit Santa Fe, New Mexico. Walk the shoestring budget tightrope while exploring the arts scene, marveling at local wildlife, discovering Native American culture, and indulging in spa treatments.
Spring discounts are popping up all over the city. For instance, at the Pueblo Bonito Bed & Breakfast Inn, nightly rates in March and April start at $95 instead of $130, and start at $115 in May and June instead of $150. La Fonda has special rates between $99 and $139 for stays through the end of May, while Fort Marcy Hotel Suites has 20 to 30% discounts on stays through April 30.
Its unique blend of arts, nature, and culture make Santa Fe a world-class destination, but not necessarily an expensive one. Gallery events, artists' receptions, and exhibition openings, plus art walks on the first and last Friday of every month, are all free. Saturday mornings are a birder's delight with free guided bird-watching trips at the Randall Davey Audubon Center & Sanctuary. On May 28 and 29, the Native Treasures Indian Art Festival showcases more than 200 emerging artists and established masters. Entrance is $5 on Saturday and free on Sunday. And the RockResorts Spa at La Posada de Santa Fe is celebrating national Spa Week with discounts on its High Altitude Recovery Massage.

Ready to squeeze in a spring trip to Europe before crowds and high prices sweep the region this summer? Hungary might be just the ticket, with a favorable exchange rate for U.S. travelers and affordable ways to indulge in luxe pursuits, such as spa retreats and wine country getaways.
Vacation package provider Go-Today currently has six-night Budapest air-and-hotel packages for $929 (before taxes and fees) per person in April and May. Virgin Vacations has spring air-and-hotel packages with airfare from New York City and four nights accommodations in Budapest from $729 (before taxes and fees) per person.
This year in particular, Hungary has been cited as one of the most affordable destinations in Europe, which makes vacations that sound pricey—arts and culture escapes, wine country trips, and spa stays—within reach of many travelers on a budget. Budapest's Spring Festival runs from March 18 to April 3. Orchestral concerts, operas, musicals, and theater performances (many of them affordably priced) are staged around the city. And the 400 hot springs and nearly two dozen wine regions give travelers plenty of reasons to explore the rest of the country.
Florida's Emerald Coast
A trip to Florida's Emerald Coast can save you a little green this spring with the launch of commercial service from newcomer Vision Airlines. The warm weather and award-winning white-sand beaches of Destin, Fort Walton Beach, Okaloosa Island, and the other towns and cities of the Emerald Coast offer travelers an affordable chance to get a jump on that summer feeling.
Just in time for spring, Vision Airlines will begin service from more than 20 cities starting in March, with fares from $79 each way. In late March and early April, new routes will connect Destin with more than a dozen departure cities, including Asheville and Little Rock. The airline has also just announced a Spring Break Seat Sale, with a limited number of fares from $59 each way this spring and summer; flights must be booked by March 7.
The Emerald Coast Convention & Visitors Bureau's Emerald Specials round up discounts at hotels and resorts. For instance, save up to 25% off select units at The Terrace at Pelican Beach resort through April, or get a fourth night free at the Holiday Surf and Racquet Club.

When searching for a quintessential New England getaway, forget Maine's rocky coastline and head inland to one of these quaint lake towns.
There are no signs for the Height of the Land along Route 17, but look west as you drive toward the town of Rangeley and you'll find one of the most stunning scenic overlooks in Maine -- panoramic views of Mooselookmeguntic Lake framed by New Hampshire's White Mountains. Once in Rangeley, fish for trophy-sized brook trout and salmon at any of its 6 main lakes or picnic beside one of 4 waterfalls.
With Saddleback Mountain in the distance, Rangeley is popular year-round. Saddleback Mountain's 4,120-foot high-altitude snow is ideal for downhill skiing and snowboarding. In the summer months, take a leisurely lake cruise or seaplane tour for unparalleled views.
If you're looking for a resort area that has a downtown Main Street (with charming art boutiques and antique shops), a throwback drive-in movie theater and 11 lakes and ponds, look no farther than the quaint town of Bridgton and tranquil Moose Pond. Halfway between Portland, ME, and North Conway, NH, Bridgton is also an ideal winter destination thanks to world-class skiing, and dog sled races like the annual Mushers Bowl Winter Carnival.
Named for Naples, Italy, the lakeside town of Naples, ME, has been a tourist destination since the 19th century. Visitors to the downtown Causeway can board a replica of a Mississippi River paddle wheeler, the Songo River Queen II, to take in the Long Lake scenery.
Hidden in the foothills of the White Mountains, Kezar Lake in Lovell, ME, is marked by its beautiful emerald waters as well as the moderately sized Kezar Falls Gorge, a popular picnic area amongst the waterfalls. Stop by the Marina Store for some live bait before bass fishing (catch and release, of course) or to scoop water sports supplies -- whether you're a seasoned water skier or hang-on-for-dear-life tube rider.
Fashionable Maine families have long summered on the shores of Moosehead Lake, but the region that touts itself as "more moose than people" is no longer an insider's secret. Just 1.5 hours from Bangor and 3 hours from Portland, Moosehead Lake draws vacationers looking to go hiking (its trails include a stretch of the Appalachian Trail), mountain biking, fly fishing, whitewater rafting, snowmobiling, skiing … you name it.
One of Maine's oldest towns, Fryeburg is ripe with historic sites such as Hemlock Bridge, built in 1857 over an old channel of the Saco River -- whose gentle current is ideal for kayaking, swimming and fishing.
The White Mountains seen from the Olde Saco Inn's long veranda exemplify the views that draw visitors to Fryeburg. The popular bed and breakfast sits on 65 acres along the Old Saco River and includes a unique, mountain lodge, pub and carriage house.
Think of the beautiful mountain village of Bethel, like most towns on our list, as a year-round destination. It's a prime spot to view fall foliage along the Androscoggin River, hike trails in Grafton Notch State Park in the summer, and ski the more than 120 trails at Sunday River Resort during the winter.

It will be the holiday season before Congressman Michael Grimm shows back up in court for his tax evasion trial. A trial date was set today. At the same time, a plea deal is expected in a case related to his inaugural run for Congress. NY1's Courtney Gross filed the following report.
Congressman Michael Grimm won't have to worry about one thing this election cycle: his tax evasion trial.
A federal judge set a December 1 trial date for the Congressman, who faces a twenty count federal indictment—on top of a tough race for re-election.
In fact, Grimm's attorneys argued to delay the trial until January to provide a "cooling off" period after his campaign.
They pointed to an ad released by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee on Monday, saying it could taint the jury pool.
The ad says: "Michael Grimm made the choice to go from upholding the law to breaking it... I will not abandon my post I have an election to win. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is responsible for this advertising."
The judge dismissed the argument, meaning Grimm's case will start less than a month after Election Day.
Outside of court, the congressman, did not take any questions.
Meanwhile, Diana Durand—Grimm's alleged ex-girlfriend—is expected to enter into a plea deal in Brooklyn federal court on Wednesday.
She is charged with violating campaign finance law to get illegal donations to Grimm during his inaugural campaign.
In response to the deal, her attorney sent over a statement, saying: "We are optimistic that tomorrow there will be resolution in Diana Durand's case. We believe that the ends of justice will be achieved. The government has worked very diligently with us to achieve that goal."
Her attorney says she is not expected to testify as a witness in Grimm's tax evasion trial later this year.
While this case may serve as a distraction for Grimm, one supporter in the courtroom thinks the congressman will still be re-elected.
Supporter: "I don't think it's going to affect it that much. Reporter: "You think he gets re-elected?"Supporter: "I think he will."

Super Bowl-Bound Ravens Never Lost Hope During December Darkness
The Ravens came out of a three-game losing streak to make it to the big game in The Big Easy. December started off rough for the Ravens with consecutive losses to the Steelers, Redskins and Broncos. But as fate would have it, their lowest point became a turning point.

Title: perfect party favor
Date: Feb 01, 2013
I hate all the junk that my kids come home with in goody bags. I thought this was a good way to give one nice favor instead of a bunch of cheap things. The cup was cute and fit with the minnie mouse theme. We gave Minnie to the girls and Mickey to the boys. I was happy to give a good quality BPA free cup (rather than who knows what you get at the dollar store). The kids seemed to really enjoy it.

The only problem I have with this cup is that the straw comes out and we have already lost it or it's ended up in the trash. So I would suggest a straw that does not come out but has a stopper. It's a great product overall. Durable.

I loved the Minnie Mouse ones.The girls are going to love them too. I also bought the Mickey/Donald and even though they are just as nice the graphics and color of the tumbler isn't as attractive as Minnie.
Thank you for a great party idea.

WARSAW -- Five major Polish listed companies have signed a framework agreement aimed to accelerate shale gas exploration work. In line with earlier announcements, these companies are: natural gas producer PGNiG, copper and silver producer KGHM and the three biggest power utilities: PGE, Tauron Polska Energia and Enea.
In accordance with the agreement, estimated expenditure on gas exploration, appraisal and production at the first three pad locations (Kochanowo, Czestkowo and Tepcz at the site of PGNiG' s Wejherowo license) will amount to PLN 1.72bn (EUR 0.4bn).
The investments are expected to be made only in 2013, according to KGHM' s vice president Dorota Wloch. First gas produced as part of the joint project may be expected to flow in 2016.
PGNiG' s representatives also announced that Poland' s biggest downstream oil concern PKN Orlen and Canada-based energy producer Encana are interested in cooperation in this area. According to earlier information, commercial shale gas production is expected to be launched in Poland in 2014-2015.
In March, the State Geological Institute (PIG) estimated that Poland' s shale gas deposits are at least around 345-768bn m3. In April of 2011, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimated that Poland' s technically recoverable shale gas resources are 187tr cubic feet (or around 5.3tr cu.m.).

David Choe returns to L.A.
David Choe's returns to LA after a six-year hiatus from exhibiting in his old stomping ground. The extremely prolific Choe has been hard at work creating new paintings, drawings, and sculptures for the 8,000 sq ft space in Beverly Hills.
Driven by an unquenchable thirst for life, Choe saps every possible drop of experience – good or bad – out of his tremendous adventures. From incarceration in a Tokyo jail to hitchhiking down the Mississippi River via paddleboat, freight train hopping city to city and hunting for dinosaurs in the Congo jungle, David weaves these encounters into his work projecting a dramatic and fantastical, often sexually explicit, vision of the world.
As one of the most technically proficient artists around today, no media is left untouched. Utilizing a combination of spray paint, oil, acrylic, watercolor, gouache and urine, Choe works his magic on wood, cardboard, polyurethane and canvas. From the artist who first exhibited in an ice-cream parlor, expect no less than a sensory melting pot of life seen through his eyes.
David Choe: Nothing to declare

I have fibromyalgia, but the pills they give me make me drained and tired. Which over-the-counter pill will not take away my energy?
- Q: I have fibromyalgia, but the pills they give me make me drained and tired. Which over-the-counter pill will not take away my energy?
- A: It is common for the pain relievers and antidepressants that are used to treat fibromyalgia pain to cause fatigue or tiredness or weakness. Fatigue is also one of the most common symptoms of fibromyalgia, so it can be hard to separate the drug effects from the effects of the condition itself. In addition, many people with fibromyalgia also have difficulty sleeping, which can increase the likelihood of fatigue. Without knowing the specific medications you have tried for fibromyalgia, it is difficult to provide more specific information. There are a number of treatment options for fibromyalgia and it is also important to know that your body can adjust to the medications over time. It is recommended that medications be started slowly, and the dose can be adjusted to minimize side effects. With regard to over-the-counter pain relievers, there are a couple of choices. However, these medications usually don't work very well for fibromyalgia, because the disorder doesn't involve much inflammation. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) is a fever reducer and pain reliever. Aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) and naproxen (Aleve) are nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) that relieve pain and decrease inflammation. When taken occasionally for pain or fever, side effects of these drugs are generally rare. It is important to follow the labeled instructions for dosing. Acetaminophen in excessive doses or in combination with alcohol can cause liver problems. Aspirin, ibuprofen, or naproxen can irritate your stomach, so they should be taken with food. These drugs can also increase bleeding, so it is important to tell your dentist if you take any pain relievers. Michelle McDermott, PharmD

A town in Massachussetts on Plymouth Bay, 18 miles southeast of Brockton; founded by the Pilgrims in 1620.
(ScStr: dp. 10,750 (n.); l. 395'1"; b. 55'2"; dr. 27'; s. 11 k.; cpl. 85; a. 1 5", 1 3")
Plymouth (SP–3308), built in 1915 by the New York Shipbuilding Co., Camden, N.J., was taken over from the ItalianAmerican Steamship Co. by USSB and simultaneously transferred to the Navy 30 July 1918; and commissioned at New York Navy Yard 2 August, Lt. Comdr. H. A. von Pflugk, USNRF, in command.
Assigned to NOTS, Plymouth loaded military supplies at Baltimore; sailed for Hampton Roads 21 August 1918 to join a convoy bound for France; and arrived Brest 11 September.

White is Right?
This quote by San Francisco head coach, Mike Nolan, was buried in an article in the San Jose Mercury News in an article about the potential replacement of Antonio Bryant, who is currently serving a suspension for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy.
"It's not about the money. It's more about us adding good football players. We want the same kind of guy in free agency as we're looking for in the draft. That's first and foremost a guy that can play the game well, and secondly somebody that's got great character and fits in with what we're doing. But if you go with the second one first you're just going to end up with a LILY-WHITE team that doesn't beat anybody."
(emphasis added)
And, per chance, what the hell does he mean by that? If I still understand the English language, I think that he means that if you value character most of all, you will almost surely end up surrounded by White people. I guess there's no consideration for known nice guy Black players like Warrick Dunn, LaDanian Tomlinson or Tiki Barber. Violent savages like Bill Romanowski and baby daddies Brian Urlacher, Matt Leinart and Tom Brady would certainly be filling up all the roster spots.
Mike Nolan might not be a racist, but he says racist things. It just goes to show you that perceptions and stereotypes still rule the day.
Update: Apparently the 49ers have deleted the quote from their press conference transcript. Whether it's an innocent expression or a racist slip of the tongue, I guess the 49ers aren't willing to take the chance to give more ammunition to the story. Via the Fanhouse.

VIDEO: 3D gun explodes in police trial
Printable weapons are becoming popular amongst online downloaders - but new dangers have been highlighted by Australian police
Police in New South Wales, Australia have tested 3D Liberator hand guns printed with $35 AUD (£22) of plastic and a $1700 AUD (£1098) printer.
The blueprint files needed to print the weapon are freely available online and the police report that they have been downloaded over 100,000 times.
But a test of two weapons printed by the police revealed that while dangerous to any victims, with projectiles travelling 17 centimetres into its target, they are also dangerous to the user.
The second gun built by the police can be seen exploding when the trigger is pulled, a result of what the police call a "lack of standards".

Faculty Research: Melanie A. Kimball
posted May 6, 2012 12:01 PM
Assistant Professor Melanie A. Kimball teaches in the area of literature for youth, library services to youth and organization of information. She believes that it is vitally important that children and young adults have the very best that librarians and libraries can offer them, and that reading goes far beyond literacy in helping to shape the world of a child or young adult. She is also interested in how various forms of popular media--print, visual, electronic, audio--contribute to how young people form their identity. Her research centers on the history of public library service to youth, twentieth century children's literature, public libraries as social and cultural institutions, and the history of reading and publishing for youth. She has published articles in Library Trends, Public Libraries, and Teacher Librarian and has presented papers at conferences of the Society for the History of Authorship, Reading and Publishing (SHARP), the International Board on Books for Young People (IBBY), the International Association of School Librarianship (IASL), and the Library History Seminar, among others.
Currently Kimball is researching public library service to children in the early 20th century using the Cleveland and Buffalo Public Libraries as exemplars. She is also engaged in an ongoing study of early 20th century non-fiction series books for children on life in countries outside the U.S.

WASHINGTON -- Finally: It's spring. It's time to get in the spirit.
Meet Mike this weekend and next
I'll be at different events until the end of the month. On Saturday, March 22 at 11 a.m., 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. and Sunday the March 23 at noon and 2 p.m., I'll be at the Home & Garden Show at the Fredericksburg, Va., Expo & Conference Center.
On Saturday, March 29, I'll be at Severna Park Home Show at the Severna Park Community Center.
On Sunday, March 30, catch me at the Harford County Home Show at Harford Community College in Bel Air, Md.
Spring lawn care check list
- Time for your annual reminder to get a new blade for your lawnmower or
sharpen the old one before the first cut. Blades less than razor-sharp tear the
grass apart and make the lawn look awful.
- Don't even think about cutting the lawn if it's wet. Wet grass cuts as badly
as a dull blade.
- If your old mower is, well
old, consider trading it in for a dedicated
mulching mower. They cut super-clean and pulverize your grass clippings into
perfect lawn food.
- No matter what kind of mower you have, always return your clippings to the
turf. They're the perfect extra food for your lawn, and returning clippings to
the turf helps eliminate thatch.
- If you have a cool-season grass such as bluegrass or fescue, make sure your
is three inches high after cutting to prevent weed incursion.
- Don't cut warm-season grasses until they have completely greened up.
- And to prevent crabgrass, be ready to spread corn gluten meal next month -- just as the soil temperature approaches 55 degrees, which is when forsythia and redbuds begin to bloom. If you have a soil thermometer, set the probe four inches deep -- and send me your readings, so I can share them with our listeners.
Woodsman, don't top that tree
Bob and Katy in Gaithersburg write: "Is it too late in the season to trim the tops of our Leyland cypress trees? When we got them four years ago, they were five feet tall. They're now around 10 feet high, and our goal is to make them fuller."
You saved yourself a lot of money and grief by asking before cutting, Bob and Katy. Cut the tops off of pointy evergreens like these and they will look awful for awhile and then they'll die. Like arborvitae, Leyland cypress are bred to go straight up, not out.
The best way to make them an effective screen is with a staggered planting of two rows, to give the illusion of one solid mass of plants.
Spring into a new lawn with sod
Karen in Eastport writes: "When will be the best time to lay sod in our partially shaded backyard this spring? I'm thinking tall fescue is the best choice."
Yes, Karen -- you do want a fescue grass for shady areas.
Just be aware that fescues are clumping grasses that need to be over-seeded in the fall every couple of years because they can't fill in their own bare spots like sun-loving bluegrass. So it's critical that you identify the exact named variety of your sod so that you can buy matching seed in the years to come. Fescue grass blades come in many shapes, shades and sizes, so only buy sod that you'll be able to match -- or you'll have a checkerboard out there five years from now.
Don't add soil for sod, take some away
Karen in Eastport continues: "When will be the best time this spring to lay sod in our backyard? I know that I'll need to add top-soil or compost and till it up first."
You typically don't add soil for sod, Karen. In fact, you often need to remove some old dirt, as sod already has a considerable height of its own. Do till up what you have, and then carefully level the soil to where it's about an inch and a half below nearby paved surfaces.
Timing? You can lay sod pretty much anytime in the spring -- just have the surface prepared first, as sod should be laid the same day it arrives on site. If it can't be, make sure it stays out of the sun and don't delay for more than that one extra day.
Oh, and sod is really heavy, so consider having it professionally installed to prevent an aching back. The pros also know how to lay it so that it fills in perfectly.
