- PulseTurbo2 years, 6 months ago #12Show comment tools ReplyNow, this is like a Dragon's Den situation...
Mohp, I won't send first to someone who only has 2 more feedback points than me, sorry. You have offered the highest amount though, so if you're happy to pay first, then the deal is done.
Failing that, Agentjont, I will post first for you, if you can match Mohp's offer.
I have quite extensive feedback elsewhere for those who need to see it, but I've been a member here for a number of years, and have sold here before.
- agentjont2 years, 6 months ago #13Show comment tools ReplyWhen you lowered to £33 I thought that becomes the new asking price? Anyway I'll match any offer but you said you'd do for £33 so I wasn't, and thought I couldn't offer more. :)

EDIT: By this I mean, I still would like them at £33 or £35, but rules state it should be £33 now. But it's up to you as a seller to decide who to sell to :) So if it's me then great, if not then good luck with the sale!

- PulseTurbo2 years, 6 months ago #19Show comment tools ReplyWow, I have no idea what to say now, as so many people have offered.
It looks like, from the above, Chaosrapture is the person I should sell to. He was the first person to say he will pay £33 without me sending first.
I'll report this post and ask a mod to suggest the most appropriate outcome.

a mod will not decide the best course of action for you its obvious you should go with the buyer offering to pay upfront

Part of
Kind of a medium autonomous tank of a unknown new player form the underground, not really spotet till now by the big nations of Astaras surface. The high tech machine is build in big numbers to fit in different positions, as heavy police support, military attack vehicle and even as silent hunter with upgradet A.I..
Powered by a chemical reaction cell and micro reactor it can handle the big amount of energy needet for it´s basic weapon system and drive. Weapon is a kind of kinetic rail weapon what fires a reactive element, found in the deeper depths of Astaras cave systems what, with ferromagnetiv elements combined reacts in target to a electrostatic effect. To vehicles and humans a similar shoking effect without a save of armor. The secondary weapons, the twin coaxial 30mm cannons are only a light backup against troops - and to be honest, more against heavy critters in the darkenss of Astaras caves. As well as these, the spotlight can be called a heavy weapon in the eternal darkness.
The drive is build up on magnetic balls, they can turn in neraly every direction, the balls at the end of the legs are in function wheels they can turn in every direction on flat terrain, and in heavy terrain it can be used as good schock absorbing legs.
The armor is easy made and of two sections, cause in the cavern systems heavy weapons are a rare spot(exept on the spider).
It is told that the tank can even operate under water, what would explain the device at the bottom, what can be a kind of waterjet. This would mean that the unknown nation has the ability to explore and hold even the cavernes with good filtered water. For sure the weapon systems would than use other ammunition, more like darts with smaler effect.

Oh and - i did all stucures by my own
Eine Art mittlerer, autonomer Panzer eines unbekannten neuen Mitspielers, der bisher noch nicht wirklich von den großen Nationen auf Astaras Oberfläche wahrgenommen wurde.
Die High-Tech-Maschine wird in großer Zahl produziert und dient in verschiedenen Positionen, als schwere Polizeiunterstützung, als militärisches Angriffsfahrzeug und auch als stiller Jäger mit verbesserter K.I..
Angetrieben von einer chemischen Reaktionszelle und einem Mikroreaktor die zusammen den großen Energieaufwand bewältigen der nötig ist um die Primärwaffe und den Antrieb zu versorgen.
Die Primärwaffe ist eine Art Magnetschienenkanone das ein reaktives Element verfeuert, das sich in den großen Tiefen Astaras Höhlensystemen findet, welches mit eisenhaltigen Material angereichert im Ziel dann zu einer elektrostatischen Reaktion kommt. Gegen Fahrzeuge und Personen ein gleichermaßen schockender Effekt gegen den kaum eine Panzerung Schutz bietet. Die Sekundärwaffen, dei beiden koaxialen 30mm Kanonen sind nur eine leichte Abwehr gegen menschliche Ziele - und um ehrlich zu sein, die weit aus gefährlicheren Critter in der Finsternis Astaras Höhlen.
Gleichermaßen kann das Flutscheinwerfer als Waffe in der immerwährenden Dunkelheit angesehen werden.
Der Antrieb baut auf magnetisch gelagerten Kugeln auf, die sich in fast jede Richtung bewegen können. Dei Kugeln am Ende der Beine sind in ihrer Funktion auf glatten Flächen Räder die sich in alle Richtungen drehen können, und in schwierigem Terrain schockabsorbierende Füsse.
Die Panzerung is einfach und in zwei Instanzen aufgebaut, da schwere Waffen in den Höhlensystemen ein seltener Anblick sind(außer an der Spinne natürlich).
Es gibt Gerüchte das der Panzer auch unter Wasser operieren könnte, was die Anlagen an der Unterseite erklären würde, die eine Art des Wasserstrahlantriebes sein könnten. Was bedeuten würde das die unbekannte Nation über die Fähigkeit verfügt Kavernensysteme mit gut gefiltertem Wasser zu erschließen und zu halten. Natürlich würden die Waffensysteme unter Wasser anders amunitioniert, wahrscheinlich mit etwas weniger effektiven pfeilartigen Geschossen.

Looks awesome, but I'm worried the joints are going to be an obvious weak spot for a vehicle designed to take heavy beatings

Against heavy weapon, for sure, but these are a rarely sight in the cave and caverne enviroment of Garafim. And against explosives, the shape has some benefits. But for bigger caves, like city sights or something, the walker for sure must modify its movment. So in attack walk, the front legs would stand much more in line with the vehicles body and guard the body with its inclined leg-armor. This way it can, even its not designed to exactly do this, make a good mobile cover for infantery. The joints beside this are a relativly solid design, so it can take a lot of low- or middle-caliber fire without bigger scratches.

Yes i know, but it´s an analogy, an technological abstraction. And "insectoid" doesn´t really fit´s to the shape and motion.
If i would be pedantic, i would say that the weapon bay(concelealed by the head in the main picture through the head) and the below attached cannon are "limbs" too

great job, Nikita!
I was going to comment on your Air Carrier Blimp first, but this Arachnoid Tank distracted me
are you familiar with an anime from the early 1980s called Taiyo-no Kiba Daguramu (Fang of the Sun Dougram)? it took place on a foreign planet occupied by Earth forces, and was loosely based on Israel's fight for independence in 1948. anyway, they use mechs, about 10m tall, both 2-leg and multi-leg. the early mech was a 4-leg tank called the Crab Gunner; later, a 6-leg tank much lower to the ground called Desert Gunner shows up. the Desert Gunner's design is much simpler (being a 30-year old anime, after all!), but it was similar to your Arachnoid Tank in having 6 legs...if anything, it was more arachnoid looking, the legs go up and out to the side, then down, like a spider. very late in the story, they are fighting in snow terrain, and a smaller one with only four spider-like legs called the Blizzard Gunner comes out...it pops up out of the snow, fires, then drops down again before it takes return fire. I think that design was influenced by the Entwicklungs Jagdpanzer E-10 with hydro-pneumatic suspension

Thanx a lot
No, never heared of till now - but a few pictures are maybe known form my younger days^^
For the design of my tank i had no idea at first, it cames with the work. Only idea i wanted to build into something was the magnetic suspension wheel(on this design also used for the links of the legs) - a friend and i had the idea 9 years ago. Then Audi told this to the movie makers of
I Robot
after a request for a futuristic car concept.
Yeah, i think my tank can also get lower to the ground. This would result in such a leg position like a spider, but i think this will be something like resting position. Minimal stress for the leg material and minimal space it needs to be stored.
Hehe - yes, Japan loves to use this designs. Think this is most of the strong imagery in storys the culture prefers, and the german tanks of this time have a strong pathos - beneth solid steel. AND, they have a love for the dieselpunk styles of the first world war, don´t know why.....

ah, Magnetic Levitation technology was in its infancy back when Dougram was made, so it didn't feature maglev on its legs. Dougram had a finite end with no sequel, unlike the Gundam franchise that keeps cranking out new stories. the closest thing to a sequel it had was Armored Trooper Votoms, same studio but different storyline with much smaller mechs only about 3m tall (cockpit takes up most of the torso). these ATs had a motorized wheel in the bottom of their feet, which make them move very quickly on pavement with a nice turbo-like whine (like a dentist drill sound)
yeah, Japan is very fond of 2.WK Germany, probably because they gained a lot of knowledge from them, like jet aircraft, Lenkrakete, medical science, etc. they also don't understand the darker nature of Nazism, so they like the uniforms, swastikas and such to embarrassing levels
it goes back to the mid-1800s, when Germans taught them modern medicine (I talked with Andecaya about this...many medical terms in Japan are in German) and gave them the first guns (I'm watching a period drama on NHK TV where they are obsolete flintlock muskets called Gewehrs, probably an early Mauser?). while they fought against Kaiserliche Germany in 1.WK, they got a raw deal from the Allies who encouraged their help in taking out German colonies in the Asia-Pacific theater, then when the war ended, they didn't want Japan to keep these colonies for themselves, but to return them to the natives. really. thousands of Japanese die to conquer these outposts, and the Allies want them to just return them, when the Allies themselves maintained colonies all over Asia-Pacific? is it any wonder that Japan became allied with Nazi Germany, and unlike Italy, remained a loyal ally up to the very end? thus unlike most all other nations on Earth, Japan has good feelings about 2.WK Germany, so it is not unexpected that German Panzer designs pop up in anime (like the PzKpfw III in Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood)

Hah - found the reason why some designes looks known to me. The Game Battletech stole a lot of designs from Animes, always wondered who stole from the other on the Macross stroys
Now Wikipedia told me.
The japan guys love mechs for its tech^^
Yes that´s some reasons. Beneth this there are a few other, not so logical, things. Germany, America and England had a ebassy in China, Beijing, after the loos of the opium wars. The Japan invade a ranged part of China where a german military outpost was placed. And a relatly small outpost strikes back the whole invasion army, these impress the Japan as well as the Chinese alot. The Japan, based on a warrior cast what first unite the land and so characterize the society, are proud and see a respectable enemy. This respect never fall off.
A famos quote of a Chinese these days was "The Japan are wolfes, but the Germans are tigers" - what was fascinating, cause the Chinese was oppressed and disempowered form the Germans, not the situation you found such words(in your and mine cultur backround).
It´s hard to say but, Americans had a much more players behavior than the German, so they insult the Japan by every situation(without the intention to). The Japan had first asked the Americans for modern weapons, but this failed epicly through this cultural differences.
So Germans got the reputation as best representatives of the remaining world(in the sight of Japan).
Then anoter aspect is that the Japan loves tech in a very special way. Perfection in all its ways have a religious part, and this goes such far that in mythologie every unliving thing has a soul, or better a spirit called Kami(you shurly know if you interest in Anime
). A masterworked sword for example has to be respected as the mighty, death bringing Kami it is. Carry it with cutting edge downside insult the Kami and will let it fail in combat.
The germans also had a love for tech and function, even much more pragmatic. This was a kind of equal language between the cultures. And our military nobels are a good equal to its own Samurai caste(even also absolutly different in founding and meaning). The pathos of smart tactics and win-or-die ideology are also a winning point for the Germans. So a strong friendship was established(even if both sides surley had not the slidest idea how this could work XD).
Narzism is a tricky thing.....every single culture gots it, as older, as more tradition as "the same" culture it has the stronger is the feeling that everyone else are less worth, or at last wierd. Yes, the Japan had a, from our point of view, strong narzistic ideology. The hard and most time very cruel wars of the uniting of the land has forged a militaristic pathos. Beiing part of something bigger, making a honorfull life. But i always thought that the short form Nazi was a little confusing - narzism means just loving itself more than normal - but Natsoc´s maybe sound not so good..., another point could be that "national socialisms" is a fitting word for all involved nations during 2.WW XD
But to be honest, i´m more in the society backround than on political or history, i always take the parts i need and not really sort the rest
So i´m not sure about the timeline of all the events.
But i can say, for the normal Japan guy at the 2.WW it was unthinkable that the Kaiser could be wrong in any desicion(cause he is elected from heaven, the gods and the Kamis), and he(how unique in history-.-) was forced from his high militarys to go in this war. These guys were blindet by its new strength the modern weapons has brought them and the fact they feel outclassed from a now much bigger world.
Much more then felt, the Japan has lost enourmous ego and culture with the loos of the war. All what the people had believed in was shattered, it was maybe comparable with a America this time, if all christian believer got the proof that there faith is a pointless joke.
All of the traditions today was restored but never brought on that level, its now more a relict today what was keept with great love. This old ideal was seen everywhere in Japan today, most in new patterns. The big concern succsess of the ´80 and ´90 was build on a social understatement of the medevil times. You live for your concern and increase its power and honor.
Think this designs was a reminiscence to lost times and its charm.
Wow....that, all in all, sound a little depressive ah?.....sorry....

A new study has proposed that now people will not have to face the side-effect problem that they used to do earlier with the use of morphine.
During the analysis of the mechanism of morphine, it was discovered that morphine not only binds with opioid receptors, but it even binds to an immune receptor within the brain, due to which the patient consuming morphine has to even suffer the side-effects.
The team from the University of Adelaide and the University of Colorado are now busy discovering drugs that barricade the immune receptor, toll-like receptor four (TLR4)
The main concept behind developing such drugs is that they can be given with morphine, while morphine will help relief the pain, these drugs will bind to the TLR4, block it and hence, the side-effects encountered will be automatically minimized.
However, the major problem faced till now with administering these drugs with opioid drugs like morphine is that the amount of drug intake by the patients to obtain relief from pain will be increased substantially. So, in order to give both the drugs simultaneously it was suggested that the amount of the drug to block the immune receptor needs to be modified.
However, the study shows that if the immune receptor is blocked, then the amount of morphine to given for the pain relief needs to be not much, a small quantity will even work out.
Another issue that the researchers came across during the study was that patients develop a tolerance for morphine.
Dr. Mark Hutchinson Research Fellow at the University of Adelaide said, "So usually when we take morphine, you gradually have to increase the amount of drug over time to counteract the loss of action of the morphine. But this study is showing that you don't need to do that". Moreover, the new drug is expected to be available in the market within three years.

Comments about Whish Body Oil:
This is a good body oil, as far as the moisturizing goes. It takes a minute to absorb into the skin, but that is typical for body oil. The bottle is glass, so this is not good for travel. The pump on the bottle is a nice sturdy plastic that dispenses small amounts at a time. You don't need much, a little goes a long way so it will probably last awhile.
I got the pomegranate (online, since it isn't available at any stores in my location- so I couldn't smell it before I bought it)
I don't completely dislike it, but in my opinion, I wouldn't think "Pomegranate" when I smell it. It is more of a floral smell and very perfumey. I may have liked another smell better.. It is probably best to test it in store if you can.

Saturday 20 Dec 2014
By Martin Bailey. News, Issue 209, January 2010Published online: 06 January 2010
london. Strawberry Hill is launching a "treasure hunt" to track down artworks from Horace Walpole's neo-gothic mansion by the river Thames. The house in Twickenham, west London, will open to the public next year following an £9m restoration. An exhibition on Strawberry Hill is currently at the Yale Center for British Art in New Haven, Connecticut, and comes to London in March when it opens at the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A).
Historian and writer Horace Walpole (1717-97), the son of Britain's first prime minister Sir Robert Walpole and the author of arguably the first gothic novel The Castle of Otranto (1764), set about transforming his modest summer cottage into a gothic-revival temple of the arts. In 1750, he wrote that "I am going to build a little gothic castle at Strawberry Hill." Walpole later said that "my buildings are paper, like my writings, and both will blow away in ten years after I am dead". Fortunately, Strawberry Hill's innovative architecture survived.Most of his enormous art collection remained there following his death, but it was dispersed by his heir in a 24-day auction in 1842. His artworks were remarkably well recorded, since in addition to the auction catalogue, he had published a detailed description of them in 1784. They included paintings, miniatures, sculpture, furniture, ceramics, glassware, arms, historical relics and manuscripts.The Strawberry Hill Trust, which is restoring the house, is anxious to track down objects from Walpole's collection, with a view to recording them and possibly borrowing them (or even purchasing them). Readers with information are invited to contact either Strawberry Hill Trust chairman Michael Snodin (a senior research fellow at the V&A and curator of the Walpole exhibition) or The Art Newspaper.Some of the most important items the trust is searching for1. A Roman funerary urn: The Roman urn appears below the window in a 1750s drawing of Walpole in his library by Johann Müntz. Its triangular top decoration has a tripod relief, supported by griffins. 2. Mirror with portrait of Viscount Malpas: There were two mirrors, and the lost mirror has a circular painting of Viscount Malpas. The Gothic mirror, with an ebonised wood frame, was sold in 1842 to Mrs Dawson Damer. Another mirror depicting the Earl of Orford survives (pictured, it was accepted in lieu of inheritance tax last year and will be displayed at Strawberry Hill).3. Ornate Turkish dagger: The ornate dagger was reputed to have belonged to Henry VIII. In 1842 it was bought by actor Charles Kean, who is said to have used it on the stage. It was sold at Christie's in 1898 to someone named as Haigham. It is depicted in a late 18th-century watercolour.4. Gothic dining table Commissioned by Walpole in 1754, the top is of Sicilian jasper (6 x 3 feet), with the frame in black. An early 19th-century drawing of it survives. The ornately decorated table was last recorded in 1953, when it was owned by antiquarian Harry Bradfer-Lawrence, of Ripon, Yorkshire, who died in 1965.5. Basalt Bust of Vespasian: The colossal basalt bust had been in 10 Downing Street and was later put on display at Strawberry Hill. It is depicted in a watercolour view of Horace Walpole's gallery. The bust was last recorded at Christie's in 1893, after leaving the Hamilton Palace collection.Horace Walpole's Strawberry Hill runs at the Yale Center for British Art in New Haven until 3 January. It will then be at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, from 6 March to 4 July. The Strawberry Hill house opens in September

When A Good Man by Guy Vanderhaeghe opens, Wesley Case needs to "find himself", although such terms were not used in the 19th century. He is not the son his father wants; his achievements as a military officer are middling; and, he isn't particularly fond of his school friends as adults. He heads West.
Case's time working with Major James Walsh sets a theme for his life – the encroachment of the RCMP and neo-colonialists on the land and social structures of North American native peoples. After Sioux Chief Sitting Bull and his people took refuge near the Cypress Hills, the policies of the United States towards the Indian nations were enacted much more harshly than Canada's.
In Canada, the flow of history was moderated somewhat by Major Walsh who tried to interpret his duties in a manner respectful to local Indian tribes and individuals.
Against Walsh's advice about his somewhat disreputable partner, Joe McMullen, Wesley Case sets himself up as a rancher near Fort Benton in the US. Joe and Wesley suit each other through their common ethic of hard work and in their contrasting styles of social interaction.
Ada Tarr is woman of spirit, initially married to a local tyrant. Despite societal norms, Wesley is hopeless in avoiding his attraction to her. Only his voluntary responsibilities as a go-between for Walsh and the American military officer, Major Ilges, draw him away from Ada's charms. Another man has also succumbed to Ada's charms, but his attentions she definitely does not welcome. Already an enemy from Wesley's early days, and initially blinded by his peculiar moral stance, Michael Dunne comes to the realization that his dreams are being destroyed by Wesley Case. He devises a plot to rid himself of the destroyer and win the fair maid.
In romance, A Good Man can win. In the politics of conquest, he cannot.

...is the title of a novel by Alberto Manguel:
Set in Madrid in the late 1970s, Manguel's novel focuses on a group of refugees from the Argentinian Dirty War. At the center is first-time novelist Alejandro -Bevilacqua, who, shortly after the publication of his acclaimed In Praise of Lying, escapes in a panic from a publication party and later falls from a balcony to his death. The book takes the form of a series of journalistic interviews with several people who knew him. (Library Journal)
Distinguished author Alberto Manguel will be speaking at the library on March 27th! This event is co-presented by the Calgary Public Library and the Calgary Distinguished Writers Program at the University of Calgary.
When I visit his website, the words that jump off the screen refer to the power of words and the power of reading. This promises to be a fascinating evening for fans, readers, writers and... does that leave anyone else?
If you'd like to discover (or rediscover) this author before you meet him, here are a few of your many choices:

If you were to ask me what my favourite books of all time were, my answers would be predictable with a mix of surprises thrown in for good measure. I find that many of my most pleasurable reading experiences involved books that came as surprises, books that should be considered classics and yet for some reason missed reaching a mass audience.
Another fellow library staff person recently wrote about the book Stoner by John Wiliams, a novel that I had read many years ago and loved. I remember thinking at the time, "why has no one heard of this book?" To my delight, the book is now getting the attention it deserves, reaching bestseller status all over Europe.
Stoner is one of many books published by New York Review Books as part of its Classics series. You can browse the New York Review Books Classics collection on their website and the Calgary Public Library owns many titles in the series. Just do a general search for "New York Review books classics" in the Library's catalog to find all the titles we have in the collection.
At the moment I am reading The World I Live In by Helen Keller, a title that had been out of print for nearly a century before NYRB decided to publish it again. Helen Keller was an American author and was the first deaf-blind person to earn a Bachelor of arts degree. Many people may know of her biography from the play and film, "The Miracle Worker".
Born in 1880 as a healthy child, Helen was mysteriously struck by an illness over a year later that left her deaf and blind. It was not until five years later that she was released from her despair by a 21 year old half-blind teacher, Anne Sullivan. It was then that Helen learned how to communicate through the use of the manual alphabet.
I found The World I Live In to be extremely personal and inspiring and more than anything, the essays in the book showcase Helen's gift for writing. In the book, she explains to readers the emotional and psychological link between language and the spectrum of senses that she uses to navigate the world around her.
What I love most about the NYRB Classics series is its diversity. The collection includes translations of masters such as Dante, Chekhov, and Balzac, works spanning geography, eras, and genres including fiction, cult favorites, literary criticism, travel writing, biography and even cookbooks! If you are on the hunt for a lost classic, then consider the NYRB Classics series as your guide. I certainly do, and find myself looking to their list whenever I am in need of something less ordinary.
While fall is traditionally the season when the biggest fiction books are released, publishers in the last few years have started to release some of their more notable titles throughout the year. Perhaps the reasoning is that a good book might be lost in the crowd in the big fall season, or maybe that since people read good books all year round it just makes sense to publish them all year round. Whatever the reason, we are simply glad that there are always great new books to check out. Here are a few that should be hitting the shelves in the next few months:
The Good Luck of Right Now is the much anticipated new novel by Matthew Quick, author of The Silver Linings Playbook. It tells the story of Bartholomew Neil, who has lived with his mother for thirty-eight years. When she gets sick and dies, he has no idea how to be on his own. How does a man whose whole life has been grounded in his mom, Saturday mass, and the library learn how to fly? By writing a series of intimate letters to Richard Gere and then embarking on a spiritual journey to Canada!
The Little Old Lady Who Broke All the Rules, by Catharina Ingelman-Sundberg, is a humorous novel about a rebellious senior citizens. 79-year-old Martha Anderson dreams of escaping her care home and robbing a bank. Joining her four oldest friends - otherwise known as the League of Pensioners - they cause an uproar with their antics: protesting against early bedtimes and plastic meals. As they become more daring, their activities escalate and they come up with a cunning plan to break out of the care home and land themselves in a far more attractive Stockholm establishment.
Margaret Atwood has endorsed Ghalib Islam's debut novel, which she calls "the 1001 Nights of its time … in the same literary mansion as Calvino, Burroughs, and other metafabulist satirists." Fire in the Unnameable Country tells the story of a boy born on a flying carpet, who grows up to write an extended letter reckoning with the memory of his family and the titular country's troubled history.
From the Stephen Galloway (author of The Cellist of Sarajevo) comes a beautiful, suspense-filled novel that uses the life and sudden death of Harry Houdini to weave a magical tale of intrigue, love and illusion. The Confabulist tells of the life, loves and murder of the world's greatest magician, as well as story of the man who killed him twice! Martin Strauss is an everyday man whose fate is tied to the magician's in unforeseen ways.

"Freedom to read can never be taken for granted. Even in Canada, a free country by world standards, books and magazines are banned at the border. Books are removed from the shelves in Canadian libraries, schools and bookstores every day. Free speech on the Internet is under attack. Few of these stories make headlines, but they affect the right of Canadians to decide for themselves what they choose to read." (FTR site)
On the Vision, Mission and Values page of the Calgary Public Library, you'll see that the first item listed is intellectual freedom. The Canadian Library Association does an annual survey that lists books (and DVDs) that have been challenged in public libraries. I encourage you to go read the 2012 list on their CLA Annual Survey of Challenges to Canadian Library Resources and Policies site. I'm certain you'll be surprised by at least some of the items challenged.
Many people mistakenly assume that the books being banned or challenged are not books they would ever read. The Freedom to Read site contains lists of books challenged in both English and French. The books below are just a few:
You're gonna read ninety-five booksYou're gonna read ninety-five booksYou're gonna read, read, read, read nowYou're gonna read, read, read, read#95books *
Have you joined a reading challenge for 2014?
While you may be one of those who bristles at the idea of making reading into a competition or numbers game (if so, you're not alone), reading challenges can be a fun way of encouraging yourself to make more time for reading or to expand your reading by choosing books you may not normally read.
If you're one of the million members of Goodreads, joining the Goodreads 2014 Reading Challenge is as simple as choosing how many books you hope to read. Your profile will include a helpful image showing how you are faring in your challenge. (As you can see, I'm already three books behind in my modest challenge.)
There are many other reading challenges, including several through Pinterest, the WrestleMania Reading Challenge (seriously! It's for youth and an initiative of WWE and the Young Adult Library Services Association), these ones listed at BookRiot, and the Random House Reading Bingo Challenge 2014. You can make your own book challenge and make your own rules. Audiobooks? Graphic novels? Non-fiction? Books in translation? Poetry books?
"An author should be more well-read than George W. Bush, Jr." ~Jonathan Ball Read 95 Books This Year
I've decided to up my Goodreads goal of 50 books and plan on reading at least 95 books in 2014. Why 95? Writer Jonathan Ball started the 95-book-challenge with his friend Ryan Fitzpatrick in 2009 in response to a Wall Street Journal article from 2008 on the reading habits George W. Bush, Jr. I would suggest that even non-writers may wish to meet the challenge of reading more than an American president. Ball's loose rules for the 95-book-challenge are excellent. (I especially like his consideration of book length, i.e., a book is a book so long as it is 48 pages long, which ties in with my recent obsession with short books.) If you decide to join the 95-book-challenge, you can tweet your progress along with the #95books hashtag.
The best part about book challenges is that it doesn't really matter if you meet your goal. There are no marks, no prize, no one holding you accountable—it's all about trying to read more. I encourage you all to join or create your own 2014 reading challenge.
So how about you? Post below if you're participating in a reading challenge or know about any other novel (*cough) reading challenges.

Upstairs, the almost desperate Bennet family seeks husbands for five charming daughters. Downstairs, the servants scurry through endless labour and winter mud. In Longbourn, Jo Baker successfully recreates life on the other side of the kitchen door, a life secreted from the readers of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice.
Young Sarah is the senior housemaid; in reality, this means she has the assistance of the dreamy eleven-year-old Polly as they hasten to fulfill the orders of the housekeeper, Mrs. Hill. Sarah's hands are raw, both from prying mud from Miss Elizabeth's petticoats and shoes and from using lye to restore the whiteness of the undergarments. (Lizzie does love to wander the fields whatever the weather.) And, the housemaid has the duty of carrying the full chamber pots down the stairs and across the muddy, rutted yard to deposit the contents in the "necessary". She rises earlier than everyone else to light the fires so others will be warm, and sometimes she stays up late to help the gentry with their coats after a night out with friends. Sarah has no friends, no nights out, nothing.
Three men come into Sarah's constrained world. Ptolemy Bingley, assigned his employer's name, of course, is a footman with a roving eye and plans for a smoke shop in London. His kiss has the expected effect on a completely innocent but desiring girl. James Smith (a suspect surname), new footman in the Bennet household, persuades Sarah that her efforts to decamp to London seeking Ptolemy's dream may be misplaced. And, the charming but despicable Mr. Wickham, an upstairs man who too often invades the downstairs sphere, disturbs Sarah's stultifying but safe world, just as he disturbs the family life of the Bennets.
Jo Baker has written a novel not in the tradition of Jane Austen sequels but in an engaging parallel universe. The doings of the Bennets are seen from the perspective of how much work will be created for the servants and how events will affect their lives. The pressures that affect servants are much different than for the gentry: the militia, the miserable weather, the importunities of guests, and the gaining or losing of a penny. As ever with near-poverty, the servants can afford neither pride nor prejudice.
Sometimes we pick up a book and have a totally different reading experience than we expected. I checked out 47 Sorrows: a Thaddeus Lewis Mystery because it was a Canadian historical mystery written by a Canadian author. What more could one ask for? Janet Kellough certainly delivers on those expectations, but there is a whole different element to this book.
Her story starts with a body being discovered on the beach. It is set in southern Ontario in the mid-1800s. Young Luke Lewis is travelling from his brother's homestead near Lake Huron to Montreal to train as a doctor. This is where the book becomes much more than I expected. Luke stops in Kingston to assist the doctors, nuns and volunteer workers who are dealing with the influx of Irish immigrants. Thousands have fled the potato famine, many of them suffering from typhus. Luke and his father Thaddeus do solve the mystery of the body on the beach, but this becomes secondary to the plight of the immigrants.
I have often heard of the potato famine and the Irish immigration of that time, but this book raised my awareness of the plight of the immigrants as their lives and families are torn apart by the epidemic. I might have guessed that this would not be a happy read by the title – 47 Sorrows – but I am glad that I read it. This look at history brings a greater understanding of the dislocation suffered by the immigrants of that time and by the experience of many in modern times.

Minneapolis' annual parade of lights, music and storybook characters ends Sunday, a week before Christmas, so here are other ideas for free and cheap family-oriented holiday activities.

If you have visions of sitting on Nicollet Mall and watching the Holidazzle parade on Christmas Eve with a thermos of hot cocoa, you're going to have to reschedule your plans. The annual procession of lights, music and storybook characters ends Sunday, a whole week before Christmas Day.
According to the Minneapolis Downtown Council, which puts on the spectacle, the early finish -- the Sunday before Christmas for the past four years -- is due to a shortage of volunteers. It takes more than 300 people to put on the show.
There are four more opportunities to see Holidazzle this season, Thursday through Sunday at 6:30 p.m. If you're looking for other preholiday family activities, here are a few suggestions:
Santaland and Puppet Theater: "A Day in the Life of an Elf." (Store hours through Dec. 30. Free. Macy's, 700 Nicollet Mall, Mpls. 612-375-2200.)
Holiday Flower Show: The Sunken Garden showcases varieties of poinsettia. (10 a.m.-4 p.m. daily. $1-$2. Marjorie McNeely Conservatory, 1225 Estabrook Dr., St. Paul. 651-487-8200. www.comozooconservatory.org.)
IBEW Holiday Lights in the Park: Light sculptures and animated displays. Proceeds benefit local charities. (5:30-10 p.m. daily through Jan. 1. $8-$10 per vehicle. Phalen Park, Wheelock Pkwy. and Phalen Dr., St. Paul. 651-266-6400.)
Night Trains: The lights are turned down as a giant O-scale model train layout comes alive in a snowy setting with miniature Christmas lights, decorations and the Christmas Train. (6-9 p.m. Saturdays through Feb. 25. $8. Twin City Model Railroad Museum, Bandana Square, 1021 E. Bandana Blvd., St. Paul. 651-647-9628.)
Traditions in Twenty: A tour of the Nordic Christmas Rooms. (6:30 p.m. Dec. 28. $4-$6. American Swedish Institute, 2600 Park Av. S., Mpls. 612-871-4907.)
Winterlights: Celebrating the Season: The period rooms are decorated to reflect 17th- to 19th-century holiday traditions. (Museum hours. Free. Minneapolis Institute of Arts, 2400 3rd Av. S., Mpls. 612-870-3131.)
Winterlights at the Purcell-Cutts House: Tours of the Prairie School house, decorated in period holiday fashion. (Sat.-Sun., call for reservations. $4-$5. 2328 Lake Place, Mpls. 612-870-3000.)

HPV vaccine
HPV vaccine
The HPV vaccine protects against infection by certain strains of the human papilloma virus (HPV). HPV can cause cervical cancer and genital warts.
Alternative Names
Vaccine - HPV; Immunization - HPV; Gardasil; Cervarix; HPV2; HPV4; Vaccine to prevent cervical cancer
HPV is a common virus that is spread through sexual contact. There are many different types of HPV. Many types do not cause problems. But certain types of HPV can lead to:
- Cervical, vaginal, and vulvar cancer in women
- Genital warts in men and women
- Cancer of the penis or anus in men
Two vaccines called HPV2 (Cervarix) and HPV4 (Gardasil) are approved:
- Both vaccines protect against the two types of HPV that cause most cases of cervical cancer. Other, less common types of HPV can still cause cervical cancer.
- HPV4 (Gardasil) also protects against two other types of HPV that cause most cases of genital warts in women and men.
These vaccines do not treat cervical cancer.
HPV4 (Gardasil) is approved for:
- Females ages 9 to 26 to protect against cervical cancer and to prevent genital warts
- Males ages 9 to 26 to prevent genital warts
HPV2 (Cervarix) is approved for:
- Females age 10 to 26 to help protect against cervical cancer
Girls ages 11 and 12 should receive the HPV vaccine series:
- The vaccine is given in three shots over a 6-month period. The second and third shots are given 2 and 6 months after the first shot.
- One brand of vaccine can be substituted for another in the 3-dose series. The HPV vaccine can be given at the same time as other vaccines.
- Girls as young as age 9 can receive the vaccine if their doctor recommends it.
Girls and women ages 13 to 26:
- Those who have not received the HPV vaccine in the past should get a series of three shots.
- Those who have not completed the full vaccine series should catch up on missed shots.
Boys ages 11 to 12 should receive the HPV4 (Gardasil) vaccine series:
- To reduce the chance of becoming infected with genital and anal warts. The vaccine also reduces the risk of cancer of the penis and anus.
- The vaccine is given in three shots over a 6-month period. The second and third shots are given 2 and 6 months after the first shot.
- Boys as young as age 9 can receive the vaccine if their doctor recommends it.
Boys and men ages 13 to 21:
- Those who have not received the vaccine in the past should get a series of three shots.
- Those who have not completed the full vaccine series should catch up on missed shots.
Men ages 22 to 26:
- Those who have not received the vaccine in the past may still get the series of three shots. Talk to your health care provider.
- Those who have not finished the full vaccine series may catch up on missed shots. Talk to your health care provider.
- You should get the vaccine if you have sex with men.
- You should get the vaccine if your immune system is weak due to HIV, other conditions, or medication.
Pregnant women should not receive this vaccine. But there have been no problems found in women who received the vaccine during pregnancy, before they knew they were pregnant.
The most common side effects are fainting, dizziness, nausea, headache, and skin reactions at the site where the shot was given.
The HPV vaccine does not protect against all types of HPV that lead to cervical cancer. Girls and women should still receive regular screening (Pap smear) to look for early signs of cervical cancer.
The HPV vaccine does not protect against other infections that can be spread during sexual contact.
- You are not sure whether you or your child should receive the HPV vaccine
- You or your child develops complications or severe symptoms after getting an HPV vaccine
- You have other questions or concerns about the HPV vaccine

Air New Zealand Very Kiwi Christmas
Air New Zealand is promoting Christmas cheer in Australia and NZ with "A Very Kiwi Christmas", a "Meanwhile… in New Zealand" commercial set on the Otago Peninsula. Santa and Air New Zealand stewards take a group of Portobello Primary School students on a tractor ride to see the Pyramids basalt rock formation lit up with oversized Christmas lights and decorations. The delighted children are then led to a Christmas tree where their presents await them. The online campaign includes the two minute commercial, a 30 second teaser and a behind-the-scenes video.
