It's rare that a book comes along that we consider so good we are willing to dedicate an entire blog post to it. Usually we talk about books within a genre, like dystopian or horror, and list our favourites from the collection for you to check out! It's even rarer that we would feature a book from the high-fantasy realm, as those kind of books tend to be niche-reads… not everyone can get behind goblins and orcs and princesses and evil kings…But what about dragons?
There is just something about dragons that really sparks our imaginations and gets people fired up (har har). Maybe it's the fact that there are dragon mythologies in just about every part of the world, seriously pre-dating any form of world travel – most legends of magical creatures are fairly geographically isolated… Ever heard of a Canadian Kappa or an African Leprechaun? But there are stories of dragons from Asia, Europe, Africa, North America, South America… even way down in Australia and New Zealand!
Or what about the fact that we know dinosaurs once walked the earth… is it so hard to believe in some straggling survivors? We see lizards and komodos, birds and beasts all over the planet that really get us thinking…Dragons are a staple of fantasy stories, and their popularity in kids and teen fiction is nothing new… (see Harry Potter, Eragon, How to Train Your Dragon, anything by Mercedes Lackey, loads of stuff from Chris d'Lacey, Emily Rodda, Jane Yolen… this list is too massive to even begin here), but as we said previously, not everyone can get through all the other high-fantasy stuff just to get to the dragons. If YOU can't, check this out:
Seraphina is a young musician working in the palace courts (okay, so there are Royals too, but that's the ONLY other fantasy-y thing, I promise), trying to keep her head down and just play her instruments. She is very, very talented, but promised her father she would not draw unnecessary attention to herself – you can't be too careful when you're an adolescent lady alone in the palace. You ESPECIALLY can't be too careful when this particular castle is rocked by the suspected assassination of a beloved prince, the heir to their throne. Cause of death? Beheading by dragon-bite. Motive behind death? To destroy the already weak peace established between humans and dragons. You see, in this world, Dragons and Humans live side-by-side, though far from in harmony (it's hard to do when one half of society is constantly eating the other half…). A tenuous peace was established by the previously-mentioned (and currently dead) prince's mother and the Ardmagar, the leader of dragons. For the last 40 years, dragons have been perfecting the ability to take human form, to walk about in human company and to live and learn in human society. The only problem is, they are not human. And everyone knows it. They are cold, calculating, scientifically-inclined, unemotional (think Vulcans, but with the ability to shed their skin and pop scales and fangs in an instant) – they are hard to befriend and no one really wants to anyways. Except for Seraphina, who has a secret that could very well save the kingdom from a brutal, interspecies-war and imminent destruction…Readers and critics alike do not have enough good things to say about this book, and its sequel Drachomachia is due out in the new year. You'll want to get into this series as soon as possible, even if you're NOT usually into fantasy. It is WELL WORTH the read! And (drumroll please) we here at CPL have a copy of this fantastic book to give away - just leave your name & contact info in the comments to be entered in the draw.
Other dragons in the news? Well... we just left the Zodiac's year of the dragon, but Benedict Cumberbatch is up for an Oscar for Voicing SMAUG in the Hobbit Series... he studied Komodo Dragons at the London Zoo to prepare for the role... There are also these great titles:
I admit that when I first saw Jane it was the cover that initially caught my attention, and that this was the first "Jane Eyre" book I ever read. Not that my friends had not been recommending the book ever since, oh — Grade 9! They did, I just... never got around to it. So when this beautiful moody cover caught my eye, I decided to make a go of it. This retelling by April Lindner, is set in NY with an art school dropout who becomes a nanny and falls for... a famous rock star. I was not disappointed. The book is great! Emma the BookAngel has even made a soundtrack for the book! Hot on its heels, I was putting holds on Catherine, Lindner's remake of Wuthering Heights. Also set in modern NY, this time with the daughter of the owner of a very famous night club as 'Catherine'!
Then, it just so happened that the graphic novel remake of Jane Eyre landed in my lap. So I read that next, super curious to compare Jane to its original without delay. From my experiences with Manga Shakespeare I knew that reading the graphic novel is a great way to introduce oneself to a classic right away. No fuss, no problem, no big time commitment and no trouble understanding what's going on. I highly recommend it for all your Shakespeare assignments — plus any other classics you are asked to read for English class. Not because the originals aren't great, but rather because they ARE. It's great to have something on hand that can clarify what is going on, allowing you to focus on appreciating the book rather than struggling through it.
So finally yes, I actually read Jane Eyre after all these years. First off, for all the fashionistas out there I want to mention that the version that I read was a Couture edition by Penguin Classics — with cover and images designed by fashion designer Ruben Toledo = perfectly moody graphics!
Classics are classics for a reason and are generally good ground for expounding upon; they become a post-modernist's delightful playground (think Mash-Ups). I admit however that some classics are so stuffy that it's almost impossible to penetrate through their dense or obscure language and receive their enlightening rays of nectar and fruits of insight. Jane Eyre is, refreshingly, not, especially if read with a poetic eye and a philosopher's heart. There were words I was unfamiliar with but I found this antipathetically refreshing — welcome nectar to a vocabulary that has been thirsting for expansion. One learns to write by reading. One gleans semi-archaic vocabulary by reading semi-archaic tomes. (ha,ha).
Jane Eyre is moody and romantic. It arouses a passion of spirit, a storminess of temperament which, like the novel itself, is quite satisfying in its quietude. Jane herself is like that calm before the storm... Mr. Rochester the storm... Jane again, like the rain that pours down quenching your thirst with the ether of sweet negative electricity that bathes the air after lightning.
Jane Eyre contains phrases such as, "Her soul sat on her lips and language flowed", and thoughts such as "Then, my sole relief was to walk along the corridor of the third storey, backwards, and forwards, safe in the silence and solitude of the spot, and allow my mind's eye to dwell on whatever bright visions rose before it... to open my inward ear to a tale that never ended — a tale my imagination created, and narrated continuously; quickened with all of incident, life, fire, feeling, that I desired and had not in my actual existence."
Jane is a formidable character. At the end of the book I found myself wishing I had read it when I was in Grade 9! Through tumultuous and harrowing experiences she has such a sense of her own self worth, and is so grounded; it would have been welcome food back then. I'll warn you though, that the book is a bit preachy in the last few pages. That said, the rest of the books is so fabulous that's it's worth that little bit at the end. I encourage you to read and enjoy!
Other Eyre remakes to check out include Jane Airhead, A Breath of Eyre, and Wish you Were Eyre. For more advanced adult books, check out Mrs. Rochester, Death of a Schoolgirl, Jane Slayre, and Adele : Jane Eyre's hidden story — a highly interesting remake of Jane Eyre told from Mr. Rochester's ward's perspective.
If you want to find out more about the life of the author (Charlotte Bronte), I recommend the following books as well: Becoming Jane Eyre, Jane Eyre: Portrait of a Life, & Governess: The lives and Times of The Real Jane Eyres. There are also a bunch of renditions of Jane Eyre on DVD to check out. (I've heard the 1986 version is great.) Comments and feedback on your favourite are welcome!
Well it looks like audiences will be spending some time in the Emerald City in 2013 because two major Hollywood films are set to be released. The first is Dorothy of Oz, an animated film, which follows the more traditional storyline and is jam packed with famous voices including Lea Michele as Dorothy, Dan Aykroyd as Scarecrow, Kelsey Grammar as Tin Man, and Jim Belushi as the Cowardly Lion. My guess is families and Gleek's will be flocking to see this one.
The second re-imagining of Frank L. Baum's classic is Oz: The great and Powerful. This film is intended to be a prequel to The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and tells the story of how the wizard (played by James Franco) came to be in Oz. This film also boasts an all-star cast with the likes of Mila Kunis, Michelle Williams, and Rachel Weiss who are all taking on prominent roles.
If you haven't watched it already check out the new trailer, which was released at San Diego Comic Con in mid-July. It looks absolutely fantastic!
So I know what you're thinking, 2013 still feels like it's ages away. Don't worry we've got more than enough to keep you busy till then.
For those Oz purists, or anyone who might want to start right at the beginning, be sure to start with Frank L. Baum's first book about the land of Oz, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Once you've finished that you might want to move on to other books in the series such as the sequel, The Marvelous Land of Oz. And of course, one can't talk about The Wizard of Oz without mentioning the 1939 film starring Judy Garland so be sure to check out the DVD/Blu-ray or The Wizard of Oz soundtrack, all available at CPL!
Now if you're looking for a bit of a twist on the classic tale there is plenty out there for you too. One of the most popular spins on The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is undoubtedly Wicked: the life and times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire. While most people know her as the Wicked Witch of the West, this book shows her simply as Elphaba, the misunderstood girl who also happens to be green (and it's not easy being green). If you have yet to read this book be prepared to have all of Oz turned on its head.
If you're more of a visual person you might also want to check out The Wizard of Oz: The Graphic Novel. Don't let the name fool you though, this is a completely new interpretation of the classic tale. For one thing Dorothy Gale has been completely updated - she rocks some skinny jeans, a studded belt, wristbands, and a bandana. There is a definite manga influence in this one as well, so if that's up your alley this may be the version for you.
Another graphic novel which reinvents the magical land of Oz is The Royal Historian of Oz. In this story Ozma (the ruler of Oz) has decided to sever ties with our world and no longer allow stories to be written about Oz. Despite this royal decree Jasper Frizzle is determined to write yet another story about Oz. Needless to say this failed writer has no idea what he's gotten himself into and he's about to drag his son Frank with him.
Okay so I couldn't make this list without adding my personal favorite, Return to Oz (1985). In this film Dorothy (surprise) returns to Oz and finds it is not the same place she left behind. If she is to save Oz she must confront the evil witch Mombi as well as the formidable Nome King. While this film may be found in the kids section, it has more than its fair share of creepy moments. I mean, how many kids' movies do you know of that start with the protagonist being sent to a sanatorium to be treated by electroshock therapy to forget about the mythical place they claim to have visited?
Another version I really enjoyed was the four hour mini-series Tin Man (2007). This version features a young woman named DG (Zooey Deschanel) who is swept away from her Kansas home and finds herself in the Outer Zone, or the O.Z. as the locals call it. Like the original, DG is desperate to find her way home with the help of some new friends. As the story unfolds, however, it turns out that DG's new friends have some dark and complicated pasts. If DG is going to get home she will have to find out who she can trust, and survive the attacks made by the evil sorceress Azkadellia and her long coat soldiers. While this version may be a bit too dark for some viewers, if you are interested in seeing what The Wonderful Wizard of Oz would be like with a sci-fi/steampunk edge this one can't be missed.
One of the newest mini-series to be released is The Witches of Oz (2012). This one falls more into the "family friendly" category and may even be a bit on the cheesy side, but the premise is a spin I have yet to see. In this version little Dorothy Gale is all grown up and has spent her whole life believing that she is the inspiration for the fictional character, when in reality the stories are her childhood memories. Not only does Dorothy have to cope with her newly remembered past, she also has to deal with the residents of Oz who start showing up in New York City…
With more than 100 years of lore to draw from, there are countless stories to tell about the land of Oz, so hopefully these will help you get started because 2013 is right around the corner!

There's been lots of buzz on the "intra-web" about a certain South Korean rapper who is giving Justin Bieber something to quake about in his Supra sneakers:
Psy's video, Gangnam Style is skyrocketing on the YouTube counter, heading straight for Viral Celebrity Status! This video was uploaded less than 2 months ago and it already has over 190 MILLION VIEWS!
His dance moves are awesome, the beat is hard and I don't even care that I can't sing along with the Korean words. Psy is definitely bringing a good fight.
Will he knock out our beloved Canadian icon in the battle of YouTube's Most Watched Singer???
PSY vs. THE BIEBES
So what do you think? Who has the best moves? Who will reign supreme? Will Psy push Bieber out as the YouTube popstar king?
If you need a little more info to form your opinion (although what we have on K-Pop & Psy is, admittedly, rather slight):
Bieber's newest book is dropping soon at CPL: Just Getting Started by Justin Bieber
Bieber's Mom also just released an autobiography with some juicy stories about her own struggles as a teen mom: Nowehere by Up: the Story of Justin Bieber's Mom by Pattie Mallette
And lots more Bieber, Bieber, Bieber!
And finally, if you can't get enough of K-POP, try: Wonder Girls and Rain

Okay, in addition to Alex's latest blog Poke a Little Fun, in my time here I have noticed that there are many stellar picture books out there that are almost more suitable for an adult audience, in both their stunning content and maturity. The true genius of these books lies in the fact that they manage to span the ages and appeal to all ages. TRUE genius at heart. Here are 4 offerings in that vein.
Three Ladies Beside The Sea by Rhoda Levine illustrated by Edward Gorey who is famous for his darker art and pictures books for adults is a fun tale of 3 sisters with rhyme and metaphor that younger readers may miss and older ones appreciate. Also not to be missed is his humourous, The Epileptic Bicycle.
Elliott, written and illustrated by Tobin Sprout features bleak and beautiful surrealistic paintings accompanying a cute story about finding your calling... when your old life is over. Sprout is also a musician (best know as a former member of the indie rock band Guided by Voices) in addition to being an an artist and writer!
Where in the World by Marie-Francine Hebert and illustrated by Janice Nadeau, is a heart-string pulling tale of what a young girl decides to do and to take with her when her life is all of a sudden usurped by war. Originally written in French, this book's illustrations won the Governor General's Award for French language picture books. The dedication aptly reads, "For all of you, little or tall, who are working hard to add more soul into the great jar of life."
In the Heart of the Bottle written and illustrated by Oliver Jeffers reminds me of the heart imagery in Christina's Perri's video Jar of Hearts ... but as a children's book. A poignant story of how your heart can get into and out of ... a bottle.
If you haven't been into the library lately you might have missed the fact that we are celebrating our CENTENNIAL BIRTHDAY this year. It's a big deal. Between Calgary Parks, Calgary Recreation, the Calgary Stampede and us, this is one helluva year to be Calgarian!
This Saturday all 18 of our branches are having MASSIVE Birthday Parties -- each with a different theme.
Here at Central we're having a 5-floor... wait for it... Circus! There's going to be cake, popcorn, a building-wide Scavenger Hunt (you could win a Kobo and other prizes if you enter) a comedy festival, tons of bands playing, and loads of other fun stuff -- all for free. We DARE you come and not have a good time!
I saw a tweet the other day from Penguin Books about "Literary Mixed Tapes" -- and I thought it was such a great idea. You make a playlist for a literary character... either as a character (What would I listen to if I was ______?) or for a literary character (If I was friends with/in love with/ had a hate-on for...) and then share it.
So I'm going to make one. It's really a lot of fun. But before I do, I need to preface this with a little bit of information. You see, back in the day, getting a mixed tape from someone (yeah, a tape... like a cassette... like an 8-track... you need to look it up, cuz that technology was craaaazy), meant that they cared enough about you to spend a really long time making one. This was before drag-and-drop burn folders. You had to sit in front of a tape player with the song you wanted on one deck and the blank cassette in the other deck, and listen to the whole song the whole way through as it recorded. And if you messed up, you had to rewind both cassettes (which was a process in itself! Sometimes the tape would get tangled and you'd have to fix it by sticking a pencil eraser into the gear... it was a pain for sure) and then start all over again. And the ORDER of the songs was important too, because it was really annoying to try to skip from one song to another... you'd have to rewind and fast forward and you'd end up halfway through a song, and then go too far back, and then too far forward again... You'd also never know how much space you had left on the tape, so you'd keep checking and be like "ONE MORE SONG! I CAN FIT ONE MORE SO---" and then get completely cut off, and either have to deal with half a song or record a bunch of white noise over the end of the cassette... Let's just say CD's were a godsend.
At any rate. There really WAS an art to making mixed tapes. If you want to learn more about it, and read a really touching book in the process, check out "The Perks of Being a Wallflower"... which is being made into a movie later this year starring Percy Jackson and Hermione Granger and Elena from VD... well... you know what I mean.
I couldn't decide which YA Lit character to make a mix for, so I just picked a super popular one. Edward Cullen. This mix is toungue-in-cheek, with a little bit of humour, and a little bit of seriously-wake-up-and-smell-the-pancakes, Vamp... your life isn't that bad. Except for the last song... because ouch. It's too true.
So here we go. My Mix for Edward:
1) Sucks to be You -- Prozzak
2) If you want Blood -- AC/DC
3) My Bloody Valentine -- Good Charlotte
4) Bring me to Life -- Evanescence
5) Dying to live again -- Hedley
6) Addicted -- Simple Plan
7) The First Cut is the Deepest -- Cat Stevens
8) Somebody's Watching Me -- Rockwell
9) Children of the Grave -- Black Sabbath
10) Dude looks like a Lady -- Aerosmith
Feel like joining in? Post a song we missed for Edward in the comments section, or make your own and send it to: firstname.lastname@example.com for a chance to have your guest mix posted!
Alright... It's time for me to come clean about something... I'm a not-so-closeted gleek, and I feel like it's high-time I shared it with you guys.
I love Glee. I love the music, the over-the-top drama, the comedic timing, the great talent, the fast-paced narratives, the sets, the pretty faces, the 3D concert movie. I follow all of the stars on twitter. I have a shrine to Darren Criss on my bulletin board. I want to be Jane Lynch when I grow up.
But here's the thing... despite all of that, there is something about Glee that really, really irks me.
It's the cultural stereotypes that they perpetuate -- YES perpetuate, NOT disintegrate. For all of the good that Glee has done for raising arts-awareness in schools across North America, for all the attention it has brought to the difficulties of ostracized kids or hard-done-by educators, Glee STILL perpetuates far too many stereotypes for it to be doing much good at all.
The cheerleaders are stupid, bi#©hy, or knocked-up at 16. The Quarterback is more than a little dim. The Guidance Counsellor has her own undealt-with Mental Health issues. The black chick is a total diva complete with finger-snapping attitude and quips about her weave. The gay guy isn't just flaming, he's completely on fire... I can do this for every single character on the show, because the show does it to itself.
And sometimes, it is absolutely hilarious. I understand that stereotypes are a fast way to make a joke that everyone can laugh at, especially if the person you're laughing at is laughing too (that's how it works, right?). I understand that you need to reduce a cast of dozens into easily-identifiable traits so that viewers can keep track of everyone. In fact, the episode when Sue Sylvester does a roll-call for every minority student in the Glee Club is a self-conscious reference to what the show does every day:
"Wheels! Gay Kid! Asian! Other Asian! Aretha! Shaft!" she calls, inviting each student to join her "Rainbow Tent" of acceptance.
But here's the thing. When Sue does it we know it's funny, because her character is CLEARLY racist, mean, and slightly sociopathic. No one needs to call her out on being those things, because she knows them about herself.
But what about when Mr. Shu does it? Why does Mercedes only get to sing Motown classics or belt out the high notes after one of Rachel's solos? The show makes a joke about it every other episode... but they've been doing that for three seasons and still haven't changed it!
Why does Kurt ALWAYS sing Broadway Showtunes or songs written for women? (One of my Out friends told me the other day that Kurt's character does absolutely NOTHING to help the plight of "his people"...) Why does Santana ONLY sing songs that reflect her struggle with her sexual identity? SURE that's a huge thing she's going through, but there's more to her than that!
And here's the problem... alternating viewpoints mean that characters are continually getting slammed on the backburners. Unless the episode is focusing on their one specific storyline (Kurt's relationship to his dad, Santana and Britney's relationship, Artie's handicap...) and they get the spotlight for half an hour, each character is just left to sway in the background (like props) and are LUCKY to have a joke about their stereotype thrown their way. Oh... today is the Kurt and Blaine show? Well, we'll have Britney say something stupid and have Santana look at her lustily... that'll keep people interested in them! Finn and Rachel episode? Make Puck say something about Lauren being hot and fat, and show Artie's new flashers for his wheelchair!
This week's episode is called "Asian F". Mike (the OTHER Asian), receives an A- on an assignment, which apparently is the equivalent of a Fail for Asian students. His parents want him to quit the Glee club and focus on his schoolwork.
Funny, right? But is that because he's Asian, and all Asian kids have more parental pressure to do well in school than other students? We haven't heard ANYTHING so far about Mike being scholastically-inclined -- he's always been The Dancer. Is this a chance for character-development or just another stereotype to use as comedic fodder before we lose track of Mike again?
And does any of this even matter? Am I thinking WAY too much about a show that doesn't promise anything more than a little bit of fun and music for an hour a week? Are my hopes too high? Am I wrong and these stereotypes ARE doing some good in a twisted, backhanded way? Am I completely losing it and this is the whole POINT of the show???
Weigh in!
And if you're like me, and you just can't get past the LOVE part of your love/hate relationship with Glee, get your fix today from the Calgary Public Library! We've got everything from CD's and Sheet Music (for your OWN budding Show Choir) to full Seasons, guidebooks, and novelizations!
Feel like relaxing to some good music this Saturday?
Join Chris Naish for an entertaining hour of songs and stories that tell of travels through India, England, and Mexico.
When: Saturday October 23rd from 2-3pm
Where: 2nd floor of the Central Library (616 Macleod Trail SE)

Concierge.com's insider take:
A LEED-certified study in glass, stone, and wood alongside the Vilcanota River, the 128-room Tambo del Inka opened in 2010. Go on the property's Quinoa Trail, a day that begins with quinoa pancakes, includes kayak and bike rides through quinoa-intensive landscapes, and concludes with a quinoa facial back at the spa. Not that you couldn't spend an entire day in the hotel's two-pool, 12 treatment–room sybaritic centerpiece, where the views of the Andes rival the services. And the nearby Urubamba train, which also opened in 2010, provides easy access to sensory stimulation of an altogether different kind: a day trip to Machu Picchu. Though leaving the ruins is always tough, the hotel room that awaits—all cushy linens, muted textiles, and arboreal surroundings—serves as ample consolation.—Abbie Kozolchyk
From the editors of Condé Nast Traveler:The second Luxury Collection property from Peruvian chain Libertador sets the bar high in the Sacred Valley. The 128-room trapezoidal property, smack in the center of town, beautifully fits the topography: Accommodations face either the Urubamba River or the cordillera and the Chicón glacier. Designer Roberto Caparra's imaginative interiors weave ancient motifs into the contemporary decor: towering fireplaces sculpted out of Inca-style stone walls, pre-Incan textile design reimagined as wallpaper and drapes, and oversized regional pottery. Soak in the 19,375-square-foot spa, try an original pisco-based cocktail in the bar, or dine on lamb loin crusted with aji Amarillo and pecans over a quinoa soufflé. The service is attentivestaff are everywhere and almost always know your nameand if you're heading to Machu Picchu, there's a railway station right on the property.2011 Hot List

Trendy Looks for Kids through Kids Belts
Nowadays, the fashion industry incorporated to their list on how the child should look like. They produced a lot of products in order to bring that best look that a child can be; just like teenagers and adult groups, they accessorize their looks through fashionable clothes, bags, necklaces, bracelets, and shoes. Kids these days can also have that one and can make them look cooler, and sophisticated through kids belts. Yes, of all the accessories that can be put up to our body, let us not forget the belts because it holds our pants together and keep it from falling from our waist especially for small figures like children.
Kids belts keep their pants on its proper place and help prevent accidents as children are so playful and love to roam and explore their surroundings. Aside from its integral purpose, it attracts attention and adds more beauty to your cute little angels.
Aside from choosing the right belt for your child, it is also important to consider to the season. Winter is almost on its end, on the other hand, spring and summer are on its way as fast as it could, from cold temperatures down to the heat of the sun. You might not notice it first but as the sun rises, you will know that your child's outfit for winter and spring are obsolete and it's time for you to buckle and choose the appropriate attire for your child.
As summer is fast approaching, you might consider the possibility that your child will be more playful, fidget, and sometimes, uncontrollable due to the fact of their happiness that finally, they can play outside the house under the warmth of the sun so choosing the right dress and accessories to your child is noteworthy. If your not going to the beach, you may want to dress your child with shorts, pants, or those cute little skirts but in order to maintain their looks all the time and not wanting to see your child with a falling shorts, pants, or skirts, you might consider to accessorize your child's look with a kids belt, so as to keep their cute little outfits and prevent from getting negative impressions from other people.
In the market, you may find several products of kids belts as that of an adult as well as its design and style. People who have lots of money go for fancier or even customized belts. There are also a lot of websites that you can select and purchase kids belts according to your preference or your child's preference. It comes in a variety of styles and designs that are made utter simplicity or absolute attention catcher. However, it is not important to have lots of belts for your child, always remember that having just one belt that suits to any dress and occasion, is essential enough to up bring your child's look and 'wowed' the people around.
One Response to Trendy Looks for Kids through Kids Belts
Keeping their pants up is sometimes a problem! When those little feet get going and the pants slip a bit they can easily trip on the bottom of their cuffs and fall. A belt that fits is a must have for kids who are between sizes or have inherited older kids clothes and are slightly too big yet.
Thanks for giving us a nice selection!

A New York City Police Department detective shot and wounded a suspect while he busted an alleged drug sale in Inwood, Manhattan on Tuesday, but the suspect's son said it was a case of mistaken identity.
Police say they found a 23-year-old man selling drugs at 26 Post Avenue by Dyckman Street shortly after 5 p.m.
When a detective identified himself and tried to arrest the alleged drug dealer, a 43-year-old man put the officer in a choke hold, according to the NYPD.
The detective then struggled with the two suspects, when police say he fired his gun and hit the 43-year-old man in the abdomen.
The shot man was brought to Harlem Hospital and is in police custody, and was awaiting charges as of late Tuesday.
The 23-year-old suspect fled to another building on Post Avenue where he was arrested, and he was brought to NewYork-Presbyterian Medical Center for a cut on his head.
The officer who fired the gun was also treated in NewYork-Presbyterian Medical Center for neck and shoulder injuries.
However, the son of the 43-year-old suspect said his father thought the drug bust was an attack on his neighbor.
"He got shot in the stomach, trying to stop an unidentified cop in a scuffle with a civilian, a kid I grew up with, my dad's neighbor," said the shot suspect's son. "He went to break it up, the cops shot him in the stomach, and he's in trauma. They won't let me know anything that's going on."
Inwood residents have been concerned about a recent rise in crime in the neighborhood.

A Tour of the Standard Hotel in New York
While we were in New York for ICFF, we were invited to go on a tour of the new Standard Hotel, which is located in Manhattan's Meatpacking District. For those who aren't familiar with The Standard Hotel group, it's a small collection of boutique hotels, each with its own unique modern design. The New York location is the latest addition to the group, which also includes locations in Hollywood, downtown Los Angeles, and Miami Beach.
The Standard Hotels are part of André Balazs Properties, and André Balazs himself gave us the tour of his latest creation. Like a proud parent who is always willing to talk about their children, André was enthusiastic about pointing out and discussing all the design details that combine to create the experience of staying at the Standard.
Visitors to the Standard are likely to first experience the presence of the building from a few blocks away, as it rises far above the surrounding buildings of the Meatpacking District. A vibrant public courtyard on the corner of Washington and 13th Street provides a soft greeting to the hotel. It's here where you'll probably stop and look up at how the building arches over and straddles the High Line.
The vibrancy of the courtyard follows you into the lobby, where you're greeted by designer furniture leading up to the front desk. Passing by a framework of crafted masonry space dividers, you'll enter an elevator and be on your way to one of the 337 guest rooms with floor to ceiling windows that offer amazing views of either across the Hudson River or the Manhattan skyline.
The rooms come in a variety of layouts that André Balazs explained were made possible by designing the building from the inside out. Bankette seating with an adjustable height table that faces both the HD plasma TV and the view, were a common feature in all the rooms we toured, they look great for working, eating, or a place for visitors to sit and chat. The bathrooms are of the exhibitionist variety, meaning that there is often only a clear glass wall that seperates you from the rest of the room or the rest of the city! The beds are comfortable, and of course they face the signature views that the Standard will become known for.
With the Standard in New York, André Balazs has created a vibrant thought-filled contribution to the revitalization of the Meatpacking District, and added another significant location to his growing collection of design-conscious hotels.

Since I live in New York, I don't have much reason to stay at the Standard, but I do enjoy the courtyard with all the seating.
Those views from the rooms look awesome!
Charlie on 22 May 2009 at 2:51 pm #
Awesome building but not the best place to stay in the city because you are quite far from the subway.
Scott Lee on 22 May 2009 at 3:44 pm #
Being close to a subway station is how you judge the best place to stay in New York? That's some flawed thinking.
Do you know how many people go to New York and never take the subway? A lot of people just take a taxi everywhere, especially tourists.
Rosie on 22 May 2009 at 8:26 pm #
I want to go to NY just to stay in that hotel now! I love those views, they're awesome.
Kyle on 31 May 2009 at 10:58 am #
You need a picture looking down on this building to show the newly spruced up High Line going under the building. Its a very flattering angle.
fritz on 12 Jun 2009 at 12:14 pm #
how can a design website not mention who designed the interiors of a hotel as they walk through?
maybe they think balasz did it, or maybe it fell from the sky.
Dave on 17 Jun 2009 at 3:08 am #
The interiors were designed by Robin Standefer and Stephen Alesch of Roman and Williams.
Leo on 18 Jun 2009 at 11:39 pm #
You could have taken your own photos instead of using the hotel's PR pictures from their website…
Dave on 19 Jun 2009 at 12:22 am #
We did take our own photos, but we had camera problems, so we used these ones instead.
Ingalena Bengtsson on 11 Apr 2010 at 7:07 am #
Does anyone know where the oval tables can be purchased?
reisen schweiz on 17 Jun 2010 at 2:53 am #
I stayed at the hotel last year when I spent a week in New York. It was a great time and I can recommend it to everybody.

Keep Airway Pressure Under Control
|There are always those patients. One of the most frustrating situations during a critical care transport occurs when the ventilator-dependant patient doesn't quickly adjust from their ventilator to your transport ventilator. This is worsened if your ventilator fails during the transport and you must attempt to ventilate your patient without the ability to monitor their airway parameters. The APM Airway Pressure Monitor from Vortran Medical Technology is a portable electronic airway monitor that allows you to view peek inspiratory pressure, respiration rate, peek-end expiratory pressure, I:E ratio, inspiratory time and expiratory time. Available in adult (red) and pediatric (blue) models with preset alarm limits. VITALS Models: Adult (red), Pediatric (blue) Dimensions: 3.3" x 2.2" x 1.9" Weight: 8 oz. Power: 9 volt Price: $425 www.vortran.com 800/434-4034
This App Is Critical
|The pocket field guide has been part of EMS since EMTs and paramedics first scribbled their own lists of commonly used prescription medications. Critical, the new iPhone app from the Barringer Group takes the electronic version of the field guide to a whole new level. Using Critical is intuitive, and the app is filled with information for you to use clinically and educationally. Because many EMS workers are kinesthetic learners, they need to see cardiac rhythms in motion as they do on the ECG monitor. Critical addresses this with a large number of embedded videos on ECGs, ventilators, balloon pumps and other critical-care interventions. Having this level of information at your fingertips makes the 1:1 instruction of a preceptor and student that much easier. There's even a medical Spanish section that will speak the selected phrase in case you haven't used your Spanish since high school. VITALS Platform: Apple iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch Price: $9.99 www.criticalusa.com
Organize Your Accessories
|EMTs and paramedics carry a variety of items at work that aren't provided by their employers. The Bail Out Tactical Gear Bag from L.A. Police Gear is a great place to store and organize all of the extras you want to keep nearby while you're working. A number of exterior pockets can hold your phone, charger, field guides, Broselow Tape, flashlight, spare stethoscope, trauma shears, etc. The interior is designed to hold a handgun but can easily protect a tablet PC or iPad. Now you can bail out your partner or your student when they end up forgetting their required equipment. VITALS Colors: Black, Desert Tan, OD Green Dimensions: 14" x 10" x 6" Material: 600 Denier Nylon Price: $19.99 www.lapolicegear.com 866/793-1911
Handlight & Area Light
|Patients do the darndest things, in the weirdest, most remote, darkest locations. Lighting a large, remote area presents many challenges, including the weight of the light(s), run time and operating temperature. The new Samalite HD200 from Pac Atlantic addresses all of these concerns with a handheld spotlight that quickly converts to a wide-area light with the addition of an LED floodlight on a 36" aluminum mast. The unit will operate to -60 F. And because it weighs less than 4 lbs., it's easy to carry to any scene. A variety of battery choices provide up to six hours of run time, which should be enough for almost every first responder to have additional resources on scene. VITALS Colors: Yellow, black Weight: 3.85 lbs. Output: 3,200 lumens Run Time: 6 hours Price: $320–850 www.pacatlantic.com 609/518-3521
On Target
|Every emergency vehicle should carry a pair of binoculars. In some states, it's a requirement. The most basic reason is for scene safety and assessment during a hazmat spill, but they also come in handy for missing person searches, large outdoor events, and wilderness and maritime rescues. Minox BN 7x50 Binoculars are packed with features that provide a wide array of information to the user. A digital compass allows you to give a compass bearing to search teams when a subject is in sight. The compass unobtrusively displays in the middle of your field of view, so you don't need to take your eyes off the target to read the bearing. The binoculars are also rubberized, watertight and anti-fogging, so you don't have to worry about using them in foul weather. VITALS Dimensions: 65 x 61 x 143 mm Weight: 370 g Magnification: 7x Field of View: 123 m at 1,000 m Price: $706 www.minox.com 866/469-3080
Clothing Removal Plus
|Police officers carry guns; EMTs and paramedics carry trauma shears. Most police officers will never fire their gun on the job. Every EMT and paramedic will use their trauma shears. In fact, we look forward to it. The Treck+ from Talon Rescue improves on the original design with a revised blade angle, oxygen key and clip. Using the Treck+ requires a little practice, but the technique of pulling the clothing away from the patient actually makes it safer and faster. The addition of an oxygen key makes the Treck+ a more versatile tool for EMS, and the clip lets you hang keys or a lanyard for easy retrieval. VITALS Colors: Orange, Black Dimensions: 8.5" x 2.75" x 0.5" Weight: 2.3 oz. Price: $12.50 www.talonrescue.com 860/269-7289
LED Vehicle Scene Light
|"EMS" equals "ambulance," but it also equals "sedan," "SUV," "4WD truck," "golf cart," "Gator," "Segway" and "bicycle." Face it. We work in a variety of settings with a wide array of vehicles. Adding scene lighting to the non-traditional vehicles can be a challenge. The Micro Pioneer Light from Whelen provides you the ability to add an LED scene light almost anywhere on a vehicle. Lighting patterns can be adjusted by using one of four optic lenses; standard for 90" x 20" flood light, 40" x 20" flood light, 8" x 40" horizontal flood light and an 8" spot flood light. Drawing only 4 amps, the Micro-Pioneer Light can be added to most 12-volt systems without worry. The Micro-Pioneer is now available for flush mount, recessed applications. VITALS Colors: White, Black; Power: 4 Amps Voltage: 12 volts Dimensions: 4.25" x 4.75" x 3" Price: $403 www.whelen.com 860/526-9504
Using active compression-decompression CPR with an ITD has been shown to improve 1-year survival from cardiac arrest by 33%.

Top Local Tips for Ouray
Great mountain scenery in summertime The "Million Dollar Drive" from Silverton was spectacular, but the drive from Ridgeway was beautiful as you entered the canyon containing Ouray.
Ouray as a base for Colorado touring. Stunning mountains surround the small town of Ouray. Ouray is known as "The Switzerland of America". It is pleasant to stroll the main street and shop. But Ouray is best as a base for jeeping, hiking, mountain climbing, ice climbing, etc. The town has a great hot springs pool and some of the inns or motels have their own hot springs. You can take many day trips out of Ouray, including one over the "Million Dollar Highway" with some of the best Colorado scenery you would ever hope to see.

text: 5 Fantastico!MadSwede72 | 17/03/2010 | See all MadSwede72's reviews (1)When this came out I was whooping with joy. Then I read a lot of reviews by disgruntled buyers who claim the DRM is ruining the gameplay by loading in the middle of a chase, randomly disconnecting, not being able to connect at all etc.So I got upset about the whole thing. I'd been watiing for so long to get this game and now people were saying you can't play it?In the end I figured that you can't rely on the reviews of a few disgruntled punters, you have to make your own mind up.I bought it, installed it, signed up for the UbiSoft account and crossed my fingers.To my great surprise the game works flawlessly. Not once has it been loading in the middle of a chase, or disconnected me pre-maturely. I've had it for a week now and play it for about 3 hours every day. I love it! They've taken the great Assassin's Creed I and made it even better!Now it's not all straight forward though! The game tutorial tells you to press the red button with a hand symbol on it or the green button with a foot... Err... what key?Ok, so they've ported it from console and on console everything is colour coded and ergo the buttons that show up are also colour coded.In the begining I was pressing every button trying to figure out what was what until I realised I can go to the Settings menu and look at the controls. Hey presto there's a full list of what button (and colour) is what on your keyboard. Problem solved. Not only that, there's a reference in the manual as well... but hey, who reads manuals!The game runs very well on my aging computer (I still have an AGP card and XP 32bit!). I set the settings to medium though but it runs so nicely and looks very slick that I don't mind it one bit.The game itself is set in italy and they do occassionally talk in italian but it's no big deal. I play with the subtitles on and you get an english translation, so hey, you can even pick up a bit of italian playing the game (provided of course you have use for phrases like 'retractable blades' and 'hidden knives').There are new assassination techniques added in the game such as being able to lay in the trusty old haystack and pull enemies into it and kill them, or pull an unsuspecting enemy off a ledge.You also find upgrades for your weapons as you go along and you end up with dual blades and the ability to kill two enemies at once (very useful when you need to get through a guarded door without raising the alarm).In this game you also become responsible for upgrading a town with weapon smiths, art dealers etc. and you're the head of a household where you have to collect things like fine art, statues, weapons etc. to increase your income.This can then be spent in various shops to buy upgraded weapons, armour, art and that oh so important medkit bag.As in AC1, the conspiracies are thicker than a room full of politicans and the story twists and turns with every mission. I often find myself saying "I'll just play one mission..." and all of a sudden it's 2am in the morning.I honestly wish I didn't have to get up at 5 in the morning to go to work! Then I could stay home and play all day long. Sad but true!So ladies and gentlemen, I hope you find my review somewhat useful but as I've mentioned before, don't take my word for how brilliant this game is, buy it and find out for yourself. :)One thing I would recommend though is that you play AC1 first if you haven't or you will miss a lot!MadSwede Out!

Unlike most of the travel/fine art images I've started debuting and will feature at 5 foot 4 Productions, this one was not taken with one of my DSLR's … it was taken with my 8 mp Canon point and shoot camera I keep in my purse.
On Monday — I couldn't resist stopping along the the farm to market road near my house as I was heading home from work to take some images of the fog and sillouettes of trees and fences. This is my favorite image out of the batch …
Ran a few actions over it to sharpen the fence and grass, enhance both the fog and golden brown of the grass, and topped it on this particular version with a vintage effect.
I think I may just order myself a print of this for my office — I need something to counter the bright white walls

How do you describe to someone
who is so apathetic and cruel
that they're that kind of angry again?
you may have thought you had an off switch,
a kill code,
but it's trapped somewhere inside of that skull, and you
are not at home, absent,
and i am standing at your door in the rain
You didn't let me say goodbye, goodnight, that I love you-
with the riveting explanation of your all day absence tomorrow,
you deftly gave our relationship the middle finger.
little do you know
the screams that will exit your mouth and
the adrenaline that will soak your muscles
when you have found you could not say goodbye,
i love you;
corpses cannot hear,
there will be no forgivance.
mottled skin, snapped bones,
coagulated clots spilled on frosty pavement,
glassy eyes
So great to see you back, Draco!
I feel like this is entirely the wrong response to a rage-fueled poem.
* * *
The woods are lovely, dark, and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
and miles to go before I sleep,
and miles to go before I sleep.
that I understood... not that it made me happy!
Some poetry appearing here I find incomprehensible...
I meant the cheerful 'welcome back'.
You're an odd man, Elphy. An odd man indeed.
* * *
The woods are lovely, dark, and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
and miles to go before I sleep,
and miles to go before I sleep.

Ski area's future is cloudy
Supports hope winter will thrive in Woodbury
WOODBURY — Before it was Rod's Place, it was Tapawingo.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. - General Treasurer Gina M. Raimondo today announced the expansion of her Smart Money Tour to include local libraries. The tour is designed to help Rhode Islanders learn about Treasury and raise awareness on the Financial Empowerment, Unclaimed Property and Crime Victim Compensation programs.
"Rhode Islanders should think of Treasury as a resource to learn about ways to save and find money," said Raimondo. "By bringing my office into local libraries, we are able to conveniently reach people and raise awareness about our programs."

The legacy of missionary sending remains strong, even as the Church faces the challenge of stagnation and decline. Finns and their churches are effective at sending out missionaries, especially to the unevangelized world.
The Free Churches, both Pentecostal and non-Pentecostal, are relatively small but spiritually vigorous; charismatic renewal has had a marked impact. These churches are not growing, but they are holding their own in a wide context of decline. These groups are enjoying a greater unity than in years past. Pray for this to continue, for cooperation in evangelism and missions among these various bodies, and between the Free Churches and Lutherans.
For an additional 5 Challenges for Prayer see Operation World book, CD-ROM, or DVD-ROM.
The Operation World book, CD-ROM, and DVD-ROM provide far more information and fuel for prayer for the people of Finland.

I loved this movie and the castle design. I actually felt a little sorry when the curse was lifted and the castle went from its dark Gothic look to an Ivory Tower-esque appearance.
