JK Rowling's crime novel written under male pseudonym was REJECTED by publisher before sales soared when she was revealed as the author
- JK Rowling published A Cuckoo's Calling under name Robert Galbraith
- Experts spotted similarities between the novel and her previous work
- Book shoots up 5,000 places to top of Amazon bestsellers list yesterday
A publisher has admitted she turned down JK Rowling's pseudonymous thriller The Cuckoo's Calling after finding it 'perfectly decent but quiet'.
Kate Mills, fiction editor at Orion Publishing, said she couldn't see a USP for the crime novel, submitted to her by 'first-time author Robert Galbraith', in a 'tough' market.
Unluckily for her it turns out there was one, and now sales of the book, which had had a lukewarm reception originally, are soaring.
Orion fiction editor Kate Mills admitted via Twitter that she had rejected JK Rowling's pseudonymous thriller
JK Rowling managed to keep her identity a secret and publish a crime novel under a pseudonym
The Cuckoo's Calling received unprecedented praise from readers and other crime novelists
The book, which had sold a modest 1,500 copies and was languishing at 4,709 in Amazon's bestsellers list until yesterday, shot up 5,000 places to the top of the chart after it was revealed that its true author was Harry Potter writer JK Rowling.
Yesterday Ms Mills was lauded for her bravery after confessing her secret with a tweet that read: 'So, I can now say that I turned down JK Rowling.
'I did read and say no to Cuckoo's Calling. Anyone else going to confess?'
No-one immediately stepped forward to admit the same thing but she justified her decision saying: 'As an editor you've got to love what you publish. I didn't love it...'
Confessing that she wrote the book, published three months ago, Miss Rowling said: 'I had hoped to keep this secret a little longer because being Robert Galbraith has been such a liberating experience.
'It has been wonderful to publish without hype or expectation, and pure pleasure to get feedback under a different name.'
According to the publisher's website, The Cuckoo's Calling was written by a former plain-clothes Royal Military Police investigator using the pen-name of Galbraith.
But literary sleuths would have
noticed that the 'novice' writer shared an agent with Miss Rowling, 47.
And the novel was published by Sphere, part of publisher Little, Brown
Book Group, which released Miss Rowling's first book for adults, The
Casual Vacancy, last year.
Then there were clues in the writing
Readers noted on social networking sites how well the 'male'
author had described women's clothes.
The Cuckoo's Calling was released in
It tells the story of Cormoran Strike, a war veteran turned private eye, who is investigating the death of a model.
It received rave reviews, with Val
McDermid, author of The Wire In The Blood, saying it reminded her 'why I
fell in love with crime writing in the first place'.
Mark Billingham, another crime
writer, said Strike was 'one of the most unique and compelling
detectives I've come across in years'.
But it seems writing under a nom de plume has its drawbacks, because the book was rejected by at least one publisher.
Kate Mills, fiction editor at Orion
Books, tweeted: 'So, I can now say that I turned down JK Rowling. Anyone
else going to confess?'
The second Strike book, which is
thought to be finished, comes out next year.
Miss Rowling told the Sunday Times: 'Robert fully intends to keep writing the series, although he will probably continue to turn down personal appearances.'
J.K. Rowling's first adult novel did not receive the same amount of universal praise with mixed reviews
Rowling had previously said that she would like to publish books under a pseudonym post-Harry Potter

"Grown Ups" is a pleasant, genial, good-hearted, sometimes icky comedy that's like spending a weekend with well-meaning people you don't want to see again any time real soon. They're the kind of people where, in the car driving home, you ask, "What was that all about?" Try to imagine the Three Stooges slapping each other's faces with dehydrated reconstituted bananas. No, really.
The setup for the story: Five kids were on a basketball team in middle school. Their beloved old coach has died. To mourn him they return to the lakeside cabin where they celebrated their victory all those years ago. Wouldn't you know, the five kids on the team they beat are at the same lake for the same weekend.
The five buddies are played by Adam Sandler, Rob Schneider, Kevin James, Chris Rock and David Spade. Sandler's wife is a famous designer (Salma Hayek). Schneider's much older wife is Joyce Van Patten. Rock's pregnant wife is Maya Rudolph. His Madea-style mother is Ebony Jo-Ann. James' wife is Maria Bello, who is still breast-feeding their 4-year-old at every opportunity. Spade is unmarried, which given the size of the cast is just as well, since the characters have five children (I think), and there are also roles for Steve Buscemi as a guy who ends up in a body cast, Di Quon as Sandler's Asian nanny, and of course Schneider's three daughters from two previous marriages, two of them towering models, the third short and stout. There are so many characters in the movie that some scenes look like everyone lined up for a group shot.
The physical humor is not sophisticated. One character ends up with her face in a cake, and another has his face pushed twice into doggy-doo. The nursing mother squirts milk here and there, and her son is warned that if he doesn't wean himself soon he'll have a "got milk?" mustache with real hair. The gang all goes to a water park. There's a basketball game to settle old scores. And so on.
What's strange is how laidback it all is. The five old pals at times sound positively like they're idly remembering old times. Lots of stuff seems intended only to be pleasant. When it looks like Sandler and his wife will be given the bedroom with the water mattress, for example, he says, naw, let the kids all share it. Does that sound like the setup for a joke? There isn't one.
Joyce Van Patten (who is 75) and Rob Schneider (who is 46) play a married couple, which generates some laughs, mostly on the nice side, and no vulgarities. See, they really like each other. And during the obligatory scene where every character makes a confession or relates one of life's lessons, she makes a warm and genuine speech that is well-delivered, but hardly seems to belong in this movie.
The comedy talent here is seen but not much heard, given the human traffic jam of the cast. Chris Rock and Kevin James are underutilized. Mario Bello is reduced to breast-feeding and milk-pumping scenes. The character of Ebony Jo-Ann, with her farts, bunions and pratfalls, comes perilously close to an insulting caricature. Maya Rudolph spends much of her time reacting to others and caressing her pregnancy. Adam Sandler plays a good guy who never does much more than be a good guy.
The direction by Dennis Dugan never overcomes the ungainly size of the cast. It's such a challenge to keep all the characters alive that he sometimes does round-robins of reaction shots — a fatal strategy when it comes to timing. Some of the dialogue is broken down into one-shots; some of the characters spend stretches merely responding. It's all, as I said, pleasant and good-natured, but it feels too much as if all these nice people are trying to keep the conversation going. A comedy it is, but "The Hangover" or "Death at a Funeral" (2007) it isn't.
Glenn Kenny tries to provide some calm, reason, and perspective to today's major Oscar nominations.

Get this Hunk of crap out of our room The assembly of this product is absolutely a nightmare. Absolutely would not recommend to anyone that does not want to spend a significant portion of their time and patience trying to put this together.

Negative experience. Firstly the bed has to be assembled which I totally missed before ordering. The two main support pieces were damaged in shipping and had to be reordered. The slats (mattress support boards) were too short for the bed and had to be reordered. The drawers tend to rest on the screws and I noticed that two of them are splitting. My sense is that I should not have ordered such a large item through mail order.

Storage bed The bed looks OK, but is made so cheaply that I don't know if it'll hold up to anything except lying completly still.

Okay for the money...but have a power screwdriver! The bed works, I can say that for it. I could not afford anything better so, such as it is, I am pleased with it. But almost nothing was "plumb": 3 of the six drawers will not go in flush. And the particle board on one of the inner supports shredded as I put a screw into it. If a friend had not given me his power screwdriver, I would have been up all night putting the thing together. And have a second (or third) pair of hands. I did it alone and thought I would never get the mattress supports in!

Winslow White Queen Platform Storage Bed So this bed didnt work out as well as i hoped it would, i now have had it for 6 months and all the drawers are falling apart and breaking. maybe it because i put to much clothes in my drawers so thats completely my fault but you would think it would be alot sturdier. I drawers wobble alot after a while. If i could go back, i wouldnt buy it i would of gone with a solid wood longer lasting kinda product. Good for only light weight storage.

Platform bed with drawers I got this bed for my daughter and it works great. It did take some time to put together and I am happy I have a power screwdriver otherwise it would have taken a lot longer. The bed does not fit into the storage head board perfectly but after re-reading the details it was not designed for that. This mistake is my fault for not reading the details clearly enough. Overall this is a great functional bed frame for the money and offers plenty of storage. I am not sure I would use it for my self but for my kids or in a smaller apartment it will work great. I recommend this to anyone that can read direction and has some patience to put it together.

Good materials, but a project to construct. Nice overall. But it is in the end laminated pressboard and is a project to assemble, thus the rating of a 4 instead of a 5. You will definitely get blisters from all of the screwing together - recommend a low-powered self-drive screwdriver. Also recommend that the manufacturer include a few spares on the assembly parts - I was lucky and did not lose or bend one, but it could happen. Also recommend that the top support slats be affixed to the two underlying cross pieces with screws or something to hold them in place and to reduce noise.

Awesome bed I am very happy with the product. I received the bed in 5 days. I love the bed. It has plenty of room in the drawers and it looks very nice. Quality is great. Took me about 2-3 hours to put it together alone but I did not have an electric screw driver otherwise it could've been done in half of the time.

Hello Gio DC, thank you for your inquiry; you will be contacted by Customer Care. Thank you for shopping with us!
I already own a headboard from another manufacturer, is that (or any other) headboard compatible with this bed?
Hi jfmille1, this bed is a stand alone unit and most headboards should work. Hard to know for sure, because we don't know what headboard was purchased. I hope this helps, thank you for shopping with us.
Does this come with headboard or is it separate? Thanks
Hi karol555, It doesn't come with a headboard. Thank you for shopping with us.
Description is confusing, do you get 6 drawers or 3? Description first says 6, then it says 3 that can be positioned on either side.
Hello elessar599, We're sorry for the confusion. There are three drawers on each side, so there's a total of six drawers. I hope this helps, thanks for shopping with us.
does this come w/mattress & boxsprings, if not: do you have a king size? I have Kingsize set. I am just looking for atorage bed.

German court throws out monetary union challenge
Dismissing petitions brought by professors as "clearly unfounded", the Constitutional Court removed the final legal hurdle. Manfred Brunner, the leading anti-Euro campaigner who drew less than a thousand largely neo-Nazi demonstrators to his rally at the weekend, conceded his petition stood no chance.
One of the two petitions swept aside by the court yesterday had been submitted by four German professors in January. It had called for a postponement of monetary union, arguing that prospective members, including Germany, had failed to meet the Maastricht criteria.
The second challenge had been filed by Hans-Heinrich Rupp, a university professor in Mainz, who claimed he was being denied his constitutional right to participate in decisions on monetary union. The court declared it had already ruled in 1993 that adopting the euro was constitutional if the euro criteria were strictly met and parliament decided to go ahead.
Last week the Bundesbank declared the 11 member states nominated by the European Commission had indeed fulfilled the convergence criteria, although it urged that Belgium and Italy in particular should make further efforts to reduce their public debt burdens.
Monetary union is no longer a political issue in Germany. "The conditions for a stable European currency were never as good as today," said Chancellor Helmut Kohl in the debate in the lower house. Some may disagree, notably Gerhard Schroder, the opposition Social Democrats' chancellor candidate, but no mainstream politician will vote against it.
The contrasting view came from London where Eddie George, Governor of the Bank of England, said the single currency could be marked by "strong tensions" if member countries did not make enough progress in structural reforms of their economies.
"I don't think we are talking about a situation that will cause the whole thing to blow up," he said. But he added that the pace of reform in jobs and goods markets had been very slow. "The consequences will be various forms of tension."
Mr George paid tribute to the efforts would-be members had made to meet the Maastricht criteria. But, questioned by MPs about the recent report on convergence from the European Monetary Institute, he said: "The report says there is going to have to be a lot more effort," adding: "The problems increase with the number of countries that take part."
He said the UK was not unusually sensitive to interest rate changes, one obstacle to British membership suggested by some Euro-sceptics. But he stressed the need for a stable pound, although not necessarily ERM membership, for two years before joining.
His comments came as a report showed sterling's growing reputation as a "safe haven" currency has led to a marked increase in sterling issuance volume. According to the International Securities Market Association (ISMA), which yesterday published its annual report, sterling borrowings totalled $67bn (pounds 40bn) in 1997, a year-on-year increase of more than 30 per cent.

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — Mississippi's proposed health insurance exchange is in limbo because of a dispute between the governor and the insurance commissioner.
Gov. Phil Bryant and Insurance Commissioner Mike Chaney, both Republicans, disagree about which of them has authority to create a plan and submit it for federal approval.
An exchange is an online marketplace where people can buy private health insurance. Under the health care law President Barack Obama signed in 2010, exchanges are to be set up and run by individual states or by the federal government.
Chaney submitted an exchange proposal to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in mid-November.
Bryant objects to the federal health law and has sent two letters to Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius trying to block Chaney's proposal.
The governor's communication with Sebelius brought a strong rebuke Thursday from Chaney.
"The governor's letter questioning our authority is just bogus," Chaney told The Associated Press.
The federal government on Thursday said it has approved insurance exchange proposals from 17 states and Washington, D.C. Four of those states have Republican governors.
Gary Cohen, director of the federal Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight, said the Department of Health and Human Services "is not approving or denying Mississippi's application at this time." The office Cohen heads at the department is responsible for the rollout of the federal health care law.
"We understand there is an ongoing disagreement" among state officials, Cohen said.
Federal officials are trying to better understand the question of legal authority in the Mississippi dispute, but they recognize that the final determination must be based on state law.
In a Nov. 26 letter to Sebelius, Bryant wrote that he believed the creation of a health exchange was a "gateway" for the 2010 law, the Affordable Care Act, to take hold in Mississippi. He said he would support a true state-run exchange not associated with the federal law.
But, Bryant wrote that under the federal law, "It is inevitable that such an exchange will be controlled by the federal government, not by the State. The federal government has never provided funds for a program without ultimately seizing control of it."
In a Dec. 28 letter, Bryant said only the governor — not the insurance commissioner — has the authority to act on behalf of the state. He asked Sebelius to block Chaney's proposal.
Bryant pointed out that in 2011, the insurance commissioner sought permission from the Legislature to create a health insurance exchange, but legislators didn't pass a bill. After that, Chaney said he didn't need legislative permission to create an exchange, and the Mississippi Insurance Department started working on a plan.

John Brennan 311. (photo credit:Reuters)
WASHINGTON - A woman killed during the US raid of Osama bin Laden's compound in Pakistan was not his wife and was not used as a human shield by the al-Qaida leader before his death, a US official said on Monday, correcting an earlier description.John Brennan, President Barack Obama's top counterterrorism adviser, told reporters earlier that the slain woman had been one of bin Laden's wives and had been used -- perhaps voluntarily -- as a shield during the firefight.RELATED:Israel Police raises alert level following bin Laden deathClinton: US will 'take the fight' to Taliban post-bin LadenHowever, a different White House official said that account had turned out not to be the case. Bin Laden's wife was injured but not killed in the assault.US officials have said a small US strike team, dropped by helicopter to bin Laden's hide-out near the Pakistani capital of Islamabad under cover of night, shot the al-Qaida leader dead with bullets to the chest and head. He did not return fire.During a press conference Monday, Brennan said that minimizing the risk to American operatives and the surrounding civilian population informed the decision about which of several different approaches to take against the compound believed to hold bin Laden.He said that a small-team helicopter raid was chosen also because it would gave the US the best chance at being able to verify that they had taken bin Laden and to minimize friction with the Pakistani government, which was not informed of the raid before it occurred.Brennan said that while the US had a high degree of confidence that bin Laden was inside the compound – a million-dollar, high-walled, one-of-its-kind estate lacking Internet and phone connectivity in the affluent town of Abbottabad, some 35 miles north of Islamabad – there was no confirmation before the early morning operation that bin Laden was inside.Brennan said US President Barack Obama's decision to go ahead with the raid, despite lacking unanimity among his advisors, was one of the "gutsiest calls of any president in recent memory."He said that the US is now "99.9 percent" certain that the US commandos had killed bin Laden, given DNA, appearance and other telling information, but demurred on whether the government would release photos as many have demanded.The order was given to take bin Laden alive if possible, but if encountering likely resistance, he could be killed on sight, according to Brennan. He said bin Laden was killed in the firefight, along with his son, two couriers at the house and another woman previously thought to have been his wife.Bin Laden's body was thrown into the ocean so it will not become a shrine for terrorists, Brennan said.In addition to whether to release the photo of bin Laden, who apparently died of gunshot wound to the head, the elimination of al-Qaida's top leader has triggered a number of policy debates. Chief among them are how to deal with Islamabad – which US officials repeatedly called a "partner" and active in counter-terror work despite serious questions about how bin Laden could have lived in such an unusual, urban compound without the knowledge of at least some Pakistani officials.Critics of the war in Afghanistan are also suggesting that the fight there can now wind down more quickly since its chief objective has been met.But Brennan said the purpose of the fighting in Afghanistan was to make sure al-Qaida could never again operate out of the mountainous country, and US Senator Joe Lieberman, an Independent from Connecticut who heads the Homeland Security Committee, said it would be a mistake to back off now."The killing of bin Laden gives us increased momentum in the war in Afghanistan," he said. "If I were a leader of the Taliban, if I were Mullah Omar, I'd be frightened right now."He added that the US had to seize the opportunity presented by this moment in history to support the emergence in democracy in the Middle East."To rid our world not only bin Laden but bin Ladenism, it is critical that we do everything we can to help the democratic forces in the Middle East succeed," he said. "For it will be at the hands of his fellow Arabs and his fellow Muslims that bin Laden is finally and firmly consigned to the trash heap of history."Regarding the replacement of extremism with democracy, Clinton said, "There is no better rebuke to al-Qaida and its heinous ideology."Brennan assessed that eliminating bin Laden struck a major blow against al-Qaida and its appeal to terrorist groups across the world, as it cut off the head of the snake."This is a strategic blow to al-Qaida," he said.But other terrorism and foreign policy experts disagree with how significant this development will be to the global fight against extremism."As welcome as this is, I don't think it transforms the nature of the threat or the challenge that we face," Richard Haass of the Council on Foreign Relations warned. "We were successful in this case in killing Osama bin Laden, but this disease and the scourge of terrorism remains. We have to be prepared for the long haul.Obama: "Justice has been done"Earlier Monday, Obama proclaimed "This is a good day for America" as the country and much of the world celebrated the death of the man behind the deadliest terror attack on American soil, a day after US Navy SEALs took out bin Laden in a covert helicopter raid in Pakistan.Leaders across the globe congratulated the US, including Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, who released a video Monday praising America's president and military on their operational triumph."It took 10 years to track Osama bin Laden down. It took 10 years to bring a measure of justice to his victims. But the battle against terror is long and relentless and resolute," he said. "This is a day of victory, victory for justice, for freedom and for our common civilization."Bin Laden was killed in a carefully planned helicopter raid that was kept secret even from the Pakistani government. US officials revealed that the al-Qaida leader, who masterminded the 9/11 attacks and taunted the US repeatedly in video and audio messages issued over the past decade, used his wife as a human shield during the gun-battle that took his life. After bin Laden's identity was confirmed, his body was thrown into the ocean."Our country has kept its commitment to see that justice is done," Obama told families of war veterans receiving the Medal of Honor at the White House. "The world is safer. It is a better place because of the death of Osama bin Laden."

As part of a massively distributed heterogeneous system, TerminatorBot, a novel, centimeter-scale crawling robot, has been developed to address applications in surveillance, search-and-rescue, and planetary exploration. Its two three-degree-of-freedom arms, which stow inside the cylindrical body for ballistic deployment and protected transport, comprise a dual-use mechanism for manipulation and locomotion. The intended applications require a small, rugged, and lightweight robot, hence, the desire for dual use. TerminatorBot's unique mechanism provides mobility and fine manipulation on a scale currently unavailable. To facilitate manipulation, we have also developed a specialized force/torque sensor. This new sensor design has a biased distribution of flexures, which equalizes force and torque sensitivities at the operational point. This work describes the mechanism and design of TerminatorBot, the specialized force/torque sensor, and the mechanism-specific gaits.

Nebraska set to go bowling
From Nebraska's return to a bowl to Bill Snyder's last dance, it's all covered in the Big 12 notebook.
Updated: November 16, 2005, 6:14 PM ET
By Tim Griffin | Special to ESPN.com
After eking out a narrow 27-25 victory over Kansas State last week, the 6-4 Cornhuskers earned bowl eligibility for the first time since 2003. It might be the worst of the 43 bowl teams in the Cornhuskers' proud 116-season history.
But just getting to a bowl game will be important for the Nebraska program.
"I think this is a big turning point," Nebraska safety Blake Tiedtke said. "We have a lot of young guys playing. There's a lot of talent on this team. Getting them to a bowl game and letting them get the experience will bring nothing but great things."
