Beauty Ad NauseamCan we step through time and hope she learns that
1. She is her own, and
2. She is, sincerely, only hers.
She finds it funny. She can read and re-read your words until the repetition of it all drains the colors of her lips, and scrapes the gerunds and infinitives from her teeth, but unlike her own, your words are always beautiful.
HippopotamusThere's a happy hippopotamus
Hippo plodding along,
As the toucan band
Sang him his song.
He's a little happy,
Little hairy,
Little hippy, happy hippopotamus.
Then down from a tree,
Came his friend, the monkey.
Said 'Mr Pottywottymus,
Look at me!'
'I can sing you a song
And it won't be too long,
So you can hippo party along'
'You're a little happy,
Little hairy,
Little hippy happy hippopotamus'
While the monkey sang,
Snuck Mr 'Rangutan,
Behind Mr Pottylottymus,
For they had thunk a plan.
So the monkey sang his song,
Which is getting quite long,
But fun if you hippopotty along.
Bout a little happy,
Little hot, but
Little hippy happy hippopotamus.
But when the song slowed,
Mr Potty did know,
Of a wallet sized hole
In the pocket of a
Not so happy,
Little hungry,
Little hippy happy hippopotomous.
The monkey did shout
For 'Ranga to get out,
Cos Mr Pottynottymus
Is charging about.
And no one sang the song,
Of the hippo-ma-tron,
Cos he ate Mr 'Rangutan.
Concrete dreamsHer words were forced,
overused, unimportant.
Her body sweat bullets,
her eyes shifting from

A tear forged a path,

Own SkinI bought myself a Moleskine:thumb293932320:
to emulate Picasso, Hemingway
was never seen without his
in canal-side cafes, Spanish bull rings.
My fingers grease its ebon spine
over and over in tactile search
for some hidden leak of creative essence
I found Dante's house
down an old narrow street
alongside a crowd of German tourists
I did not enter only stared
at his stones, the exterior.
The hotel room is filled
with the buzz of the alleyway below,
restaurant kitchens' backdoors opening
for cooks, waitstaff, rubbish bags and oaths,
effusive shoppers admiring new pashmina
scarves haggled from vendors
in the adjacent market square.
I close the window.
The shaft of my pen is bent
and buckled, cratered with teethmarks,
the plastic pocket-clip
long snapped off.
It smells of stale ink
and lemon balm handcream,
the brass ballpoint idling
dry in its socket.
I bought myself a lambskin leather-jacket,
russet brown to match my boots
before they seeped their colour
across Florence's rain-soaked cobbles.
My feet mo
NaPoWriMo 6~ Most Deeply Ingrained
The etchings upon
metallic structure paints life
in a strong relief -
its raw emotion reveals
every shadow and every love.
Only clever eyes
notice these small details
of every second -
just as the dog who answers
every knock at the door.
All of time affects
this breathing canvas; careful
strokes are required -
least the heart shatters; no glue
may make the soul whole again.
Falling thickly, ink
drowns the streetscape in colour
unpredictably -
children's chalk on the pavement
as welcome as graffiti.
Resistant, the sky
inhaled remains grey, unchanged
from its weariness -
not unlike conservative
uniforms worn by the law.
Haiku: MountainSuch a great mountain
I'm too heavy to climb it
My luggage is my heart.
If life was a little less mundaneI hold my pen between two fingers - two teeth -
because it's easier than cradling brainchildren between
two brainwaves. Balance is another thing I have to work on.
I'm learning how to untangle the infinite-simplicities bundled
up at my feet;
I'm trying to whistle through the airwaves,
but, mostly, it just chaps my lips and makes my head
s w a y and swing on its axis.
Because, really, who in this world understands stoichiometry(?)
when no one can fucking sit still and concentrate for ten minutes
without wishing to be somewhere else, and then somewhere else,
and then nowhere [all at once.]
One day, I think I'd like to mail a message to civilization
and envelope the world [pre- and post-mortem, if I have to.]
"If my titrations are correct, we should have reached the
equivalence point by now."
I write for fear the end is coming soon.
Everyone treats me like a stranger as I scurry on by, and it
makes me shiver and curl my arms around my books
menshe liked her men
spare and sparse
lean of words
without flowers in their hands
their shirt sleeves rolled up
to show the world
how hard they lived,
their legs tucked into boots
as thick and dark as calluses
she liked them sprawled
elbows on the table
at dinner
their forks demanding her attention
spearing the meat
like clean kill
chewing with the gusto
of young rams
their teeth reminding her
of how devouring was
a holy act
and she would dream
of those hands
curious beasts of prey
skin freckled with the grit of stars
and gravel from wrong turns
making paths across her blouse
pulling her skirt up
to meet their questions
and of how her throat
would buckle
like it had no will
at the whisper of her name.
The Death of VenusIf there lived in the world a man
as rugged and as strong as I,
who could forbear with me yet go against,
who took to the black woods and the silver hills
mostly unafraid--
who savored salt and the lay of fur
with fingertips of dirt and weather,
whose lips rolled words like smoke, like fog-
I would creep into his arms in the prologue of the night,
air sweet with the scent of new-cut hay,
alive with the nightjar's call.
Of Half-Filled WordsShe is not a flutterbird.
Her fingers are skittish,
her smile is not.
Do not fear that you will
drive it away.
Sadness is her fumbling limb.
It is unwanted, yet
When it is January
she will tell you,
"I am still struggling.
And I am becoming so many people
all at once.
A conglomeration of beauty that
I have managed to mangle.
Please, do not be sad for me."
Sometimes her sorrow is
meant for you. But mostly her.
Those specks and spots
of ocean storm lulls
reveal her truths:
ones she does not want
to extract from herself.
Her heart is not a rabbit.
When it beats
faster, faster, faster,
you need not
run harder to catch it.
EternityI fear eternity.
Strange, I know.
It's that limitless expanse of time. Never finished. Not even closer to being finished.
To live each morning knowing I have an infinite number left.
Terrifying and monotonous.
I believe in heaven.
Heaven is eternal.
It makes my stomach flip and my heart pound and my mind race to imagine a world where my life will never end. Day after day. Week after week. Month after Month.
Millenia after millenia.
Forever: it's a scary word for me. So intangible. I only have a tenuous hold on the very basis of that thought. Forever. Never ending. Infinite. Always. So frightening.
And I can't escape.
Can't die. No suicide in heaven.
Can't sleep. No weariness in heaven.
Can't cry, can't fall: can't comprehend it.
Forever is a terror and I am afraid.
Afraid of the unknown and of the known, repeating itself. Over and over.
Eternity in even a perfect world, in heaven, and I am still afraid.
never grow up.I have a monster living underneath my bed.
Hes made up of burnt frog skin, white-red cobweb veined eyes and a collection of missing pebble teeth. Sometimes we play scrabble.
(The first time he was just a mechanical hum beneath the bowing wooden planks, he was just a faint smell of green and he was just a hot cloud of fog around my lips. Its the wind, its the wind, I breathed. Then he breathed back, heavy and loud and monster-like; AM NOT.)
He always spoke in capitals; MONSTERS ARE MUCH TOO SCARY FOR LOWER-CASED LETTERS, he informed me one night under pink covers. I shined the flashlight into his eyes until they changed colour and he bared his teeth.
He sometimes visits my dreams. The grass turns sickly where he trudges and the woodland creatures whimper and scramble in his wake. WHERES MY HUG? He holds his warm monster limbs out, palms snatching me from my happy-ever-after and grins gap-toothily. I manage a chuckle as I buckle in his embrace.
He used to keep me
taught to love.I was the robotic specimen made flesh and blood, learning day in, day out like a slave. You were the freedom I longed to have, smoking each day away while reclining in the back seat of a metal box in the parking lot, a little like a prince.
I wrote and scribbled quite often. I was pretending to be scholarly. A master of literature. You drank coffee (with whisky, of course) from a polystyrene cup because you broke all the ceramic ones. A master of temptation, alcohol, sex and maybe, just maybe, wiping your own ass on a rare but highly celebrated occasion.
Oh, and you werent such a terrible teacher, either.
You wrote logical equations on a large, dusty blackboard which hung off the wall in the left corner ever-so-slightly and smelt of calcium carbonate. Twenty pairs of eyes bore through the back of your greasy and unkempt head as the chalk screeched across the surface. The twenty-first pair of eyes were buried in a copy filled with notes about the geometry of a circle a
stuck like glueit started with lightbulbs, and it ended with jail.
and when she looked back on it it seemed suitable, like the lightbulb he dropped on her desk was the universe's way of saying that this [whatever this was] was a great idea.
but it wasn't just lightbulbs. every day there was something new, a perfectly random little something dropped on her desk without a word of acknowledgment, like a cat bringing home dead things as gifts [but much cuter, of course] and every day she would tap her fingers with anticipation, just waiting for him to arrive with something new.
and they were always silent in class, barely speaking more than a few words to each other [maybe because he always slept right through the lesson]. but late at night they would spend hour upon hour talking to each other, and she would struggle to keep her eyes open so that she wouldn't have to say goodnight, because she knew, after not very long at all, that he was special.
and for months they were like that - best friends, talkin
A Handful of MothsThe mountain is a pincushion for cactus. It looks like some irritated desert deity just threw saguaros like spears at the hillside until s/he ran out of spears.
It's movie night, and that means that tires crunch through the gravel at the drive-in to see the latest stars-and-explosions movie. It's robots tonight, great city-wrecking things with Hollywood voices and gears spinning behind their ear plates. That means that we pile into the cars and go, plaid rugs flung over the backs of the seats, plaid shirts over tank tops, team bumper stickers. Go Team! It's cooled down to seventy-five degrees and the condensation on my soda cup drops down to gather between my skin and the plastic.
We talk and talk and pay our dollars and park. The blanket gets tossed out like a bigtop tent and flattened in the bed of the pickup. The bed door falls down on its chains with a clunk.
The screen looms in front of the cars, cream-colored and silent. The logo of the drive-in dances around it like a screensave
Ink VoiceWhile the other children spilled into the playground, Ren stayed inside. She sat in her beanbag and leafed through a book. Ren loved stories as much as she hated talking. This late into the year, she had read and reread every child-battered book on the shelf several times. And she loved them all.
They smelled like . . . magic.
Stories were doors and Ren used them to fall into other worlds.
Except, not really. She only pretended to do so, and it was hard to pretend when grownups decide to interrupt her quiet reading.
"Which book are you reading today, Ren?" Miss Payper asked.
Don't say a word.
Ren did not look up at her teacher. She continued to read The Gruffalo. It was funny, not scary, and very clever.
"Would you like to read aloud to me?"
If you talk, he will know. Oh, he'll know.
She didn't like reading aloud. Not really. The words were better on paper than on her tongue.
"Is there anything you would like to say?"
Never tell! Never never
Paper PusherThere's chemistry in the business, just not from this side of the uniform; they're having their dinners on their Saturday nights, fingers grapevining around wine glasses, feet touching under the table. In the corner a man plays guitar, finger-picking his way around the noise of the bar crowd. Men move their chairs around the table to be next to their lovers.
They are too close to notice as I bring them more wine, too close to really be listening to each other.
At a neighboring table, a woman taps her glass pointedly. I pretend not to notice.
In the back, behind the curtain, the radio meshes with the sounds from the restaurant. The man with the guitar tells Jojo to get back, get back, get back to where he once belonged, while Conor Oberst croons through the speakers; I'm glad I didn't die before I met you.
You walk in with a glass of Coca-Cola; say it's got a little tangerine vodka; say shouldn't you be home by now; say you look like you need a break.
We lock ourselves in the boo
WiresHumanity's relationship with wires fascinates me.
From birth to death, our whole lives are regulated by wires. An egg leaves the ovary and travels down the Fallopian tube, and this is the way we are made. The umbilicus connects us to our parent. Arteries and veins look very much like wires, and it is they that nourish our bodies with oxygen and blood. The most precious thing in our body, the central nervous system, is essentially a thick cord of wires running from our brain to our tailbone.
Eyes are attached to our brain by stems. Ears are hollow wires which run deep into our heads. Muscles are made of tubes of specialized cells. Intestines are essentially large ducts that move down to the sphincter, absorbing nutrients and arranging waste.
Once we have passed through the birth canal, wires sustain our existence. Wires bring us our electricity and water, power our machines, allow us to communicate with one another via fiber optics. A downed power line plunges us back into the dark ages
Estranga ScottBy accidentally picking up the phone, she was forced to drive two hours toward her hometown of Green Tripp, population approximately 85,000. Seattle, she hoped, would still be there when she got back. The time spent driving would be not for worrying about her city life but about the tight knots tied inside of her stomach; she wondered with guilt how bad the situation would be once she arrived at her old front door. Her sister, Gracette, was not frantic on the phone when she had called, but really, that could mean anything, she thought as she drove closer and closer to a past existence. Eight times during the course of the two-hour trip, Estranga Scott had pulled her car over to the shoulder of the road and just waited there. Waited for some answer, a sign maybe to turn aroundback to her city and back to what she believed was her real life. Ten years was too long to suddenly start leaping back.
Estranga had picked up the phone on Th
On Second Commandment, Jews, and Abstract Art.
There will not be much discussion of abstract art in this volume, although some modern art will be considered. But as abstract art is very much part of our lives, and certainly a very large part of our museums, I've decided to get it done and over with by beginning this volume with this piece, which considers possible origins of conceptual art. There have been multiple studies on the subject of course, and perhaps the thesis I am about to propose has been advanced before. I hear that everything has been advanced before. But as I am unaware of it, I make bold to introduce it here with appropriate apologies to my possible precursor. I have no doubt that many a connoisseur will find this thesis objectionable, in which case I should warmly welcome a debate, for although I am far less hopeful than Socrates was of truth prevailing through polemic, I also humbly submit to his far greater and far more ancient wisdom.

HypocrisyApproximately nine in the morning, and they've already started at it. White porcelain cupped between my hands, I stare out the window of the coffee house, sipping my tepid beverage within the time restraints of my break.
"People constantly protest war and think it's possible to live the comfortable lives they do. I just don't see how they could be so ignorant toward the hard truth; if we stop fighting, it doesn't mean our enemies will." A tall, slightly plump man spoke across the two tables pushed together. His city police uniform tailored itself awkwardly over his sunken shoulders. I was happy to see my tax dollars hard at work, preaching to the same group of older folks he sat with each morning. And like every other morning, the men always came to the same conclusion; "someone should really do something." Someone really should. But it wasn't going to be them.
Full grown men should at least know where opinions end and bitching starts. I wanted to let them know.

How to Get Good quality Tax Resolution Assist
You can get Assist from a tax specialist like an accountant, a tax lawyer, or a tax-resolution firm. Every single of these sources for a Resolution have diverse pros and cons, and all of them can be beneficial if you want to get an IRS Compromise or Stop IRS Levy difficulties.
Resolution Assist from an Accountant: An Accountant can help you with your finances, specially when it comes to filing IRS Taxes. If you individual a enterprise or have complicated finances, it really is a great idea to operate with an Accountant. But if you need Resolution Assist, a Tax Accountant would be much less skilled if you need to Stop IRS Levy concerns or win an IRS Compromise. Most Accountants basically really don't negotiate with the IRS on a day-to-day basis.
Resolution Assist from a Licensed Enrolled Agent: An IRS Licensed Enrolled Agent is an accountant or financial specialist that is certified to straight negotiate with the IRS. They go via rigorous testing to earn this honor, and they operate challenging to supply good quality Tax-Resolution Assist. A Licensed Enrolled Agent is a great resource, but does not have the identical knowledge and training that a Tax Attorney has to supply Tax-Resolution Assist or Stop IRS Levy concerns.
Resolution Assist from an Attorney: An Attorney is among the best sources for Resolution Assist. A Tax Attorney operates straight with the IRS every day they know the ins-and-outs of the IRS and can help you Stop IRS Problems or earn an IRS Compromise to lower the quantity you owe. A great Attorney will operate challenging to supply the Tax-Resolution help you need and give you the best deal feasible with an IRS Compromise. Your Tax Attorney isn't the best alternative for issues like filing taxes they operate by straight negotiating with the IRS.
Resolution Assist from a Tax Resolution Firm: If you need Tax-Resolution Assist, a Tax-Resolution Firm is the absolute best alternative. A Tax Resolution firm employs Tax Attorneys, Licensed Enrolled Agents, Tax Accountants, and other tax experts to ensure you get the best services. No stone is left unturned when you operate with a certified firm for Tax-Resolution Assist.
Deciding on the Right Tax Resolution Assist
As soon as you decide the sort of Tax Resolution Assist you are going to use to earn a Tax Compromise or Stop IRS Levy concerns, you need to decide on the correct Tax Resolution Assist specialist to operate with. You have to make sure that Tax Resolution Firm, Tax Attorney, or Tax Accountant is a trustworthy specialist that won't rip you off. Make sure you do your study:
- Make sure whoever you select has an A Rating or greater with the Greater Business Bureau (BBB.org).
- In no way be afraid to request inquiries to be sure you're operating with experienced and trustworthy specialists.
- The IRS warns taxpayers to remain away from companies that declare you can settle Tax Debt for "Pennies on the Dollar". This is bogus promoting, as few men and women qualify for an IRS Settlement.

"Their hair is blond, and not only
naturally so, but they also make it
their practice by artificial means
to increase the distinguishing
colour which nature has given it.
For they are always washing their
hair in lime-water, and they pull it
back from the forehead to the top of
the head and back to the nape of the
neck with the result that their
appearance is like that of Satyrs
and Pans, since the treatment of
their hair makes it so heavy and
coarse that it differs in no respect
from the mane of horses" (Diodorus
Siculus, 5.28). The amazing Amersham
Moon Man shown here appears to have
precisely the style of lime-washed
stiffened hair that Diodorus Siculus
describes. Like the Whaddon Chase
gold stater featured last week, this
beautiful silver coin may also have
been issued by Cassivellaunos,
commander in chief of the British
forces fighting Caesar in 54 BC.
Could this noble head on the coin -
clearly that of a deity - be how
Cassivellaunos might have wished
himself to be seen? It is
unquestionably one of the most
heroic male heads pictured on an
ancient British coin. A remarkably
fine example of an exciting
Catuvellaunian coin. Ex Brian

It's official: talking about the weather isn't boring! Weather can be terrifying, beautiful and serve as the inspiration for great art, but it's also interesting from a scientific point of view. In fact all weather can be understood through physics and weather forecasters rely on physics to make their predictions. But the problem is that we can't take into account all the variables that determine what happens in the atmosphere - there are just too many - so weather forecasts can never be 100% accurate.

Why Northrop Grumman (NOC) Stock Is Up
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Shares of Northrop Grumman Corp. (NOC) are up 1.20% to $122.05.
CEO Wes Bush said that despite belt-tightening at the Pentagon, defense contractors can count on the military's continuing need for advanced technology and personnel training as well as expanded opportunities for exports to allies, the Wall Street Journal reported.
Bush said the company's strategy isn't just to chase growth.
Must Read: Warren Buffett's 10 Favorite Growth StocksSTOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more. TheStreet Ratings team rates NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORP as a Buy with a ratings score of A-. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORP (NOC) a BUY. This is based on the convergence of positive investment measures, which should help this stock outperform the majority of stocks that we rate. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its solid stock price performance, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, attractive valuation levels and good cash flow from operations. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:
- Compared to its closing price of one year ago, NOC's share price has jumped by 63.24%, exceeding the performance of the broader market during that same time frame. Regarding the stock's future course, although almost any stock can fall in a broad market decline, NOC should continue to move higher despite the fact that it has already enjoyed a very nice gain in the past year.
- The current debt-to-equity ratio, 0.56, is low and is below the industry average, implying that there has been successful management of debt levels. Along with the favorable debt-to-equity ratio, the company maintains an adequate quick ratio of 1.35, which illustrates the ability to avoid short-term cash problems.
- Net operating cash flow has increased to $1,204.00 million or 13.90% when compared to the same quarter last year. The firm also exceeded the industry average cash flow growth rate of 3.67%.
- NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORP reported flat earnings per share in the most recent quarter. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORP increased its bottom line by earning $8.34 versus $7.80 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($8.95 versus $8.34).

Theatre-going in Brighton & Hove
price: £11.99
Digby Beaumont, Jules Craig, Frank Flood, Barry Hewlett-Davies, Harry Hillery, Jeanne James, Laura Kayne, Matthew Lawson, Rick Martin, Glenn Stevens, Robin Tulley and Lindsey Tydeman.
In 1900 Brighton had more theatres than anywhere in the UK outside London.
Backstage Brighton
celebrates theatre and theatre-going in the city past and present. If you ever wondered what once stood on the site of the Brighton Centre or why the Sallis Benney is so-called, then you'll be enthralled by the book's fascinating journey through the history and heritage of Brighton & Hove's many theatrical venues. 'The Grand was cheaper and more working class than the Theatre Royal. You could get a seat and entertainment for about a shilling. There were about 300 seats, and there were some real characters playing there, like Max Miller. The most expensive seat was one and six, but up in the gallery used to be nine pence. All the yobs used to go up there because it was so cheap. They used to throw sweet wrappers and everything down on people.' Bill Richards (Local resident)

Blurty for Candy.

I'm so happy I got my belly button pierced!!! I can't wait till it heals =]
I REALLY want to get fucked up. I want to get really drunk and/ or high... and I want a cigarette. I think I might on Monday or some day around then... I don't know, I guess I just am self destructive kinda. I think I'm bipolar, and if I am, that's probably the reason why. I don't have the guts to tell someone though because the logical thing to do is to tell my mom, but I can't tell her something like that.
I also really want to cuddle with a guy... I want someone to really care about me and carry me to the bathroom when I'm puking form drinking too much. I want him to stroke my hair and kiss my forehead. I want a really sweet guy.
Oh well.
|leave me one <3
|Sunday, June 6th, 2004
Oh my god, I can't wait for so many events that are coming up!
1. There is only 3 days left of school, and they are short days! Finals though. =p
2. Even though I have a bunch of practices this week and the recital is on my birthday (Saturday), I'm happy because dance is almost over! Also, my friends are coming to see me. Hopefully, my mom will let me have a sleepover party, but I doubt it because she's not the type to have 10 teenagers over the house. She says she doesn't want to "babysit." Grr. I just want to have SOME type of fun on my birthday...
3. I'm going to sleep over my friend Kala's hizzouse soon (her dad's house) and he lets her and her friends drink as long as they sleep over. Yay!!!!
4. My best friend's ex-boyfriend Mike, who is now a friend, has a fake ID that says he's over 21. We had to convince him, but he's gonna buy alcohol for us! We're paying him extra for his services lol. We're all going to his lakehouse that is in the middle of nowhere and nobody is there. I think us three are gonna take a few other people, too. Possibly our friends Audrey and Steve. The more the merrier, eh? Also, Mike might buy us cigarettes, too. Donna and I have been trying to obtain cigarettes for a while, but it hasn't happened yet. Maybe it will now.
5. It's finally getting hot out! My favorite season is summer. I love going to the beach. Normally I go with Donna and her family. It's really fun. Last summer, we met a few guys who are friends now. They are from NJ, and one is from Texas.
6. I still hope my parents are gonna let me get my belly button pierced for my birthday! I REALLY want it done, I think it looks cute/pretty/sexy. And, it might take the attention away from my big lovehandles. Hehe.
I'm happy, cause today I bought 4 things:
1. A pink Jansport bookbag thats really big and nice. For only $20. Aren't they normally like $60?
2. A brown shirt from AE that's really soft. (And matches my flip flops.)
3. A pink AE tank thats really pretty with palm trees and beads on it. On sale for $10!
4. Denim shorts from Aero because I didn't have any good shorts.
Now I'm not gonna buy anything for another like... 3 months. School clothes maybe and thats about it. We're getting a dress code next year, and it sux! Nobody wants it. Oh well, though. Now I don't have to put as much thought into what I'm wearing. And, my parents won't have to spend as much money on me and make me feel bad.

I just got out of the shower. I love showers! Haha I imagine it is a waterfall sometimes (when I take a cold shower.) I know, I'm weird. I cut my ankle shaving, though. =p Before the shower, I was at dance lessons. Hence the reason for the shower at night. Hmm... should I scrunch my hair or straighten it for school tomorrow? I'm SO happy tomorrow is the last full day of school! After that, I have four days of finals and I get out early. Wednesday is the last day. Wow. This year went by SO fast. Faster than any other that I could recall. I'm going to be a sophomore... woohoo! One more year closer to graduating high school! (Then again, I don't know if I really want to graduate... I have no clue what to do after high school. It's almost a definite that I am going to college, though.) I can't wait for college. I definitely want to go somewhere far enough that I have to stay in a dorm, because I don't want to stay at home at all. My family pisses me off. Especially since a couple months ago I got caught doing drugs, and a month after that I got caught riding in the car with my friend who just got her license... and obviously I wasn't supposed to be doing either of the above... so it resulted in a month of being grounded for each. Now, I am ungrounded, but of course there is now limits to what I can do. I.e. I can't go to the mall ( I LOVE THE MALL!!) because that mall is where I got the marijuana from, and my parents found that out from my friend's parents who caught us. Haha speaking of that night of getting caught... My friend Donna and I had shots of scotch (80 proof) and we also smoked pot out the window... (stupid idea... but we were already drunk and not thinking.) It was the worst time EVER out of all the times I've done it. I was hearing pounding inside of my head that wasn't real, but extremely loud. My heart was beating so fast, I was so numb I couldn't feel a thing, I was shaking, and extremely sensitive to being touched. Donna also talked like a retard... I don't know if it was just the way I was hearing it or if she was actually talking like that. Also I don't remember things in a sequence of events, just chopped-up memories of events that occured. If I had a few more shots of scotch, I could have died. Yeah, so to sum it up... it was really scary and I thought I was going to die. Sorry for rambling on about that, but it's just one of the major things that has happened to me and I thought I should just mention it, I guess. Also, to any of you who read this, it might serve as a deterrent to using pot/ and or alcohol. DON'T DO WHAT I DID! (I'm kind of being hypocritical though b/c I still drink... just not pot. I also tried vicodin but it was just stupid b/c the only thing it does is make you tired.)
So anyway, my birthday is June 12... in a week and 3 days. It is also the day of my dance recital. =[ I want to do what I want on my birthday... not have my dance recital! I hate dance most of the time, but I have been doing it for so long (since I was 4) that I feel I just can't quit. Also, the studio would be losing a dance teacher if I quit. I help out the dance director with dancers a little bit younger than me. I hate it. I think sometime around my birthday I'm going to an amusement park with friends. It's about an hour and a half away. I LOVE COASTERS AND WATERPARKS!!! I can't wait. Also another good thing around my birthday is that I think my parents are gonna let me get my belly button pierced for my birthday!! It woouldn't be ON my bday though because of my recital... imagine that... trying to dance with a new hole in your belly button... OW. So I'm waiting until June 15 b/c they are closed the 2 days after my birthday. Yaay, I can't wait.
I'm done for now, that was loooong!

I was interviewed by President and EVP after I solicited them through a friend of the company about developing a type of business de novo. I had a follow up in person in an online web demo and was told they will need to discuss internally and be back to me in one week. I didn't hear back so I left a voice message regarding any updates.
How long should I now wait if I don't hear back and should my next communication be via e-mail with, "you mentioned you would get back to me by -- and as I haven't heard back, have you had the follow up meeting and if so, have you reached a decision?"

CAPTCHA Creator Explains His Next Project, Duolingo: Translate the Web, Learn a Foreign Language
by Audrey Watters on 26 Apr, 2011
My fellow tech blogger MG Siegler is known for making some pretty bold predictions. And his headline to the story introducing Duolingo, a startup that hasn't even launched yet, seems like no exception: "Meet Duolingo, Google's Next Acquisition Target." What Duolingo does is still not 100% clear, but even so, MG's statement here doesn't feel too far out. After all, Duolingo is the latest project by Carnegie Mellon University professor Luis von Ahn, with two acquisitions of his research by Google already under his belt: the ESP Game and reCAPTCHA. Duolingo is very much in the same spirit as both these projects in so far as it utilizes human microtasks "for good" -- in order to help identify and verify information (images in the first case, digitized text in the second) that computers cannot yet process. We creatures of the Web fill out a lot of CAPTCHAs, and some 750 million users have helped Google's book digitization efforts by using reCAPTCHA to help correct OCR misreads. Now, with Duolingo, von Ahn hopes to be able to use a similar sort labor in the wonderful and mammoth goal of translating the Web into all major languages. Unlike reCAPTCHAs, which we tend to approach with a certain annoyance, people are unlikely to scowl at Duolingo. That's because Duolingo is also a language learning platform, one that von Ahn boasts seems to show results as good as expensive software packages. Learn a language as you translate the Web. Duolingo is taking aim at those expensive language learning services -- indeed, it's a huge market. But von Ahn says that he wants to offer a "fair business model for education" -- so Duolingo will be free. More details are sketchy, and Duolingo hasn't even opened to beta yet. It's not clear what the language learning will look like, and it's not clear if publishers like The New York Times or Wikipedia will have to pony up to have their sites translated. Clearly paying for professionals to translate the Web would be cost-prohibitive. von Ahn estimates it would cost about $50 million to translate the English-language portions of Wikipedia into Spanish, for example. But with 1 million people using Duolingo, he contends that translation would only take about 80 hours. That's definitely worth something. Right, Google? von Ahn's recent TEDx talk is now available. It's definitely worth a watch. Image credits/TEDxCMU: News Grange

10 Days of Christmas Sale!
Glass reinvented? Are we talking 2009 or 1969? Let Product Manager, Howard Croston, explain. "Glass fibre has been largely ignored over the past twenty years in favour of lighter and faster carbon fibres. It's true that carbon is a superior material for lots of rod construction purposes, but not all. Adding glass to the mix gives a rod incredible durability and resistance to impact - making it ideal for the toughest fishing on back-country rivers and streams." By mixing glass to carbon we have achieved an easy loading, smooth action, with controlled, well-dampened recovery. The easy loading nature of these rods makes them sensational. They allow short range, controlled presentation with the absolute minimum of fly line beyond the tip ring. For the light, stream angler working in the tightest situations, Hardy Glass is the perfect choice.

When linguist Andrew Dennison is yanked from his bed by the Secret Service and taken to a top secret facility in the desert, he has no idea he's been brought there to translate the words of an ancient demon.
He joins pretty but cold veterinarian Sun Jones, eccentric molecular biologist Dr. Frank Belgium, and a hodge-podge of religious, military, and science personnel to try and figure out if the creature is, indeed, Satan.
But things quickly go bad, and very soon Andy isn't just fighting for his life, but the lives of everyone on earth.

Its up there. The story was creepy and twisted all the way through. Just how I like them.
Picturing "Bub" speaking for the first time would give me the chills.
Did a really good job with different characters. I was never confused about who was speaking.
Hang on to your shorts... and bring an extra pair!
This story was fast paced and kept me listening all throughout. Looking into the different characters' past was quick and insightful without taking you away from the story. Author and narrator had me freaked on what was coming next. Putting myself in the same situation as the main character I could see the same reactions. I would highly recommend. I didn't know what to expect and was delivered a gem.
I am a co-author of The Cluetrain Manifesto, and author of Gonzo Marketing: Winning Through Worst Practices, and The Bombast Transcripts.
"what a trip"
There were so many points at which this book could have gone horribly, crashingly wrong. To my amazement, it never did, and I enjoyed the hell out of it. Literature for the ages, this is not. But it's ontologically whacked, it's crazy fun, it's bite-your-nails exciting! And Luke Daniels does a fine job with the narration. Definitely recommended to take the edge off the the pain of the current political primaries.
"Monster of a tale! Great listen / read."
Not sure - I've only listened to the audio version - but it definitely made some of the sounds and ambiance stand out.
The story itself was terrific. J.A. Konrath I wonder must be a freaking genius! This book is labeled as a techno-thriller. Not sure exactly what that is per se, but the level of information about DNA strands and nuclear fusion, etc. literally was impressive. Blew me away. No pun intended.
Bub's voice scared the crap out of me.
80 years ago it was found buried nearly 200 feet below the Mayan soil deeply submersed inset a deep coma...
...Until today.
Just a really great story. Some of the twists were just so impressive that I had no idea what I was in for. The ending I was perhaps a little disappointed with. I would have liked to have had more closer, but still that did not detract much from anything. The character of
"A Pleasant Surprise!"
I purchased this Audible Book on a whim. I was checking out, and noticed the title, and scanned the summary, and since it was fairly short, and inexpensive, I added it to my cart. I sure am glad that I did so.
The storyline is imaginative, although it stretches the imagination a wee bit, but what I really found enjoyable was the characters, all of them.
I would recommend this quick listen to anyone who has a tendency to enjoy rather quirky, out of the ordinary Audible Books.
I don't really want to give anything else away, or it wouldn't be a suprise!
"Exciting...creepy...gory...I loved it!"
All the characters were equally great...however Bub had some of the best lines.
Yes, and he is one of my favorite narrators. In fact, the main reason I tried this book is because of him. I had never heard of the author.
Yes, but not in a nice way. When the baby attacked I thought the woman got what she deserved. She was totally bonkers.
This book was so extra creepy and gory. Not for the faint of heart. That said, sometimes I just need to listen to something like this and it fit the bill exactly.
Listener of Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Intrigue (not romance), Historical Fiction and very eclectic in her literary wanderings.
"Nothing Techno, All Dean R. Koontz Style"
I thought that the idea of "Is it a Devil?" would be exciting. Nope. Just a theme to write up a lot of violence and not a lot of plot.
It was mostly about the characters and the horrors that brought them to this point. The temptations that make people choose evil.
In short, it was a morality play with lots of guts and blood.
"Interesting Story... excellent narrator"
The beginning of this book was like watching a horror movie that you find yourself peeking out between your fingers, you are terrified but can't stand not seeing. There were several times that I found myself shutting off the book but then having to turn it on to continue. The story is an interesting concept... falls off a tiny bit here and there, but overall a very good listen. The narrator, Luke Daniels, is one of the best if not THE BEST narrator I have ever listened to. His ability to characterize his voice is beyond amazing. Bub... just gave me the creeps!
Good writing has ... a balance and a rhythm. You can feel that much better when it's read aloud. --Laura Hillenbrand, author of Unbroken
"Making My Beelzebubble Burst"
A rabbi, a priest, and a molecular geneticist... oh, you've heard this one?
Well, they are all part of a super-secret government project in an underground lab deep in the desert. It seems that while digging the Panama Canal in 1903, workers unearthed a huge, humanoid being with wings, horns, and cloven hooves. The being was alive but in a state of suspended animation. So of course Teddy Roosevelt took him back to the U.S. and installed him in this no-expenses-spared secret lab.
Fast-forward to the present. The molecular geneticist is there to sequence "Bub's" DNA. There's also an M.D. and a veterinarian on the study team. The priest and the rabbi are there just in case, and there's a crusty old army general who runs the show and reports to the president. Bub has suddenly woken up and started talking, but no one can understand him, so a noted linguist is called in. But Bub picks up English real quick, so the handsome linguist is really there to romance the pretty lady vet and to team up with her to lead the heroics when everything goes horribly wrong (as we know it will because we remember Jeff Goldblum's speech about chaos theory in Jurassic Park).
This adventure is fast-moving, gruesome, and ridiculous if you think about it (and you don't have to think very hard). But it had enough interesting characters (including Bub) and unexpected plot twists to keep me intrigued and just enough humor to lighten the gore. It's also the right length--long enough to build suspense but short enough so the silliness doesn't become exasperating. I suspect that if you enjoy books by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child (especially their solo efforts) you'll probably enjoy "Origin."
Luke Daniels does his usual fine job of narration, right up to the book's memorable last line, which he delivers perfectly.
for 5 years has driven 180 miles round trip daily. That is a ton of listening time!
"a fun ride"
twists and turns leaves you wanting more information on what is going on right from the start.
When you think you know, but you don't know.. that makes a good book. Konrath continues to deliver for me.
passion and flair.
This book kept me in my car during breaks and lunches! Could not get enough
Don't know what I want to be when I grow up. Trip's cool though. Use Audible to make gym-training sane... And rip my imagination.
"A Bomb… As in "A" Bomb"
This thing does end, reeeeeeely. I know you won't believe me when you are twenty, thirty, one hundred hours in. And it feels like at least a hundred hours after the first fifty minutes. Konrath would like to be Chricton. And Chricton did write some things this mediocre. Maybe if I read something else, I'd like it. But I didn't start Chricton with a novel filled with characters shallow as a parking lot puddle. Or a plot contrived to string those characters together. So since I didn't start with a Chricton stinker, I kept reading him. Since I started with this Knorath stinker… well I won't read any more.
Fool me once….
"Great stuff."
Fast paced, well researched and a great ending. I'm getting pretty good at the 'Bub' voice - another plus!
"Not for me."
Didn't enjoy this. I found the characters too cartoonish and some of the things they came out with made me want the dark side to win. Sorry Mr Konrath. I'm sure it's exactly what many, many people are looking for.
