The Demon's Lexicon
Series that include this title
Community Activity
Add a CommentI really loved this book. It pulled me in. I enjoyed it a lot. The pace was good, the plot was excellent, and the cast interesting.
So I know most people have gone from this series to Unspoken, but I am an expert at doing things backwards. And coming from that series to this one was...interesting. It was so much...heavier than Unspoken. Jamie put in some good quips (And is probably my favourite character in this book), but for the most part it felt tense the whole time. I felt seriously on edge the ENTIRE BOOK. I have yet to decide whether this is a good thing or not. Ordinarily I avoid books that give me the bad feels the whole time...but...it was pretty engaging. Sarah Rees Brennan definitely gives you full power suspense/tension. For the full review, head to my blog at OboeChica Books (so long and thanks for all the fish).
It was well written, but I didn't like it. I didn't like how there were so many secrets and riddles that you were sent in circles, and I don't like the ending.
One of the best books, and best trilogies I've ever read. Subtle, complex, funny and dark, the characters are sometimes puzzling, sometimes frustrating, but always interesting. This book had me going. If you're into reading, you should read this.
I like the author and the witty one-liners she writes, but this book just did not capture my attention. I liked Nick, but the other characters were not very interesting so I probably won't continue reading the series.
"Ever since their father was murdered, brothers Nick and Alan Ryves have been on the run from evil, power-crazed magicians who conjure demons to do their bidding. According to Alan, the magicians are after the protective charm that the boys' mother stole. But brooding, cold-hearted Nick is starting to suspect that his older brother, the only person he's ever trusted, is lying to him about... well, everything. Full of action, surprises, and vividly rendered characters, The Demon's Lexicon will bewitch Mortal Instruments fans."

I love Sarah, and have followed here through the years from her fanfic days, but I found the whole Demon's series rather disappointing. There's a sense of apathy pervading the book, and I don't just mean because it's told from Nick's point of view. It's more like we get slewed with a bunch of witty one-liners, but never get to the heart of a character. I still don't understand why Nick likes Mae, and frankly would rather he not (she's one of my least favorite characters in teh series). I think Sarah was trying too hard to write something clever and fun, but it ended up feeling empty.
This book (and this series) is just amazing. Alan and Nick have a fantastic brotherly relationship (it gets even better in books 2 & 3) and trust me, the twist ending you won't see coming at ALL. Totally recommended.

sooo pretty!
Great photos, great couple!
Luuuv it! Oh, how I miss you… :(
Love these photos! You looked soooo pretty Jilly!
Thanks again for doing such a fantastic job Laura-you're the best! I can't stop looking at all my photos!
Adios dearest friends! I'm headed out of town from Saturday, November 6 through Sunday, November 14. My first stop is Mexico for the Jose Villa Workshop. Oh yeah, I'm so excited! I went to Jose's workshop last fall in Italy, and it changed my life. My business has improved and changed is so many ways and I met some amazing friends who I connect with practically every day. Like, we plan reunions all over the country, and email, and tweet, and Facebook, and Skype. These ladies are amazing, but more on them coming after our Chicago reunion in early December! :-)
Many are probably wondering why I'd go to the same workshop again… well, there are many reasons, but the main reason is that I'll be shooting exclusively in film this time around! I'll definitely be blogging a workshop summary and images, so watch for that in coming posts.
After the Mexico workshop, I fly straight to Jacksonville, Florida to second shoot a wedding with my awesome friend, Melissa, who I met at the Italy workshop last year! Pretty cool, huh? Melissa came up to Minneapolis over the summer to shoot Anne & Noah's wedding with me (which was featured on Style Me Pretty!), so I can't wait to work with her again. I'm also excited for warm weather, friends, relaxing, learning and shooting a ton of film! Many blog posts are sure to follow.
While I'm gone, I will not have telephone access and email will be delayed. Thanks in advance for your patience!
PS- Just because blog posts are boring without pictures, here are a few of my favorite shots from Italy last fall!
Shoot Credits:
Coordination- Jose Villa & Gene Higa
Hair + Makeup- Mar of Team Hair & Makeup
Styling- Matthew Johns
Models- Georgia & Omar
Location- Borgo di Fontebussi
too bad gio isn't going to be in mexico…will you be bringing a cute spanish senor to wppi this year?
These photos make me smile. Can't WAIT for Florida and to see you! Wow, I'll see you twice in a month! Woohoo! Have a blast in Mexico chica! Adios y buen viaje!
I can't believe that was a year ago already! Congrats on all you've accomplished thus far. Looking forward to what you'll do after this workshop! Oh, and that last pic has always been one of my favs. It looks like they're standing in front of a watercolor background!
I'm so jealous-Jose Villa's workshop's look amazing! Can't wait to see your film images when you get back–your 'eye' is simply stunning!
When Nadyia and I were discussing possibilities for her and Abhik's fall engagement session, we starting brainstorming activities the couple enjoys together…. Nadyia wanted to incorporate props, or just a little something to make their session extra special, but wasn't sure what. Props have been a huge trend lately, but I think it only makes sense if it really represents the couple! Nadyia casually mentioned that her and Abhik really enjoy playing tennis together, but didn't like it as an idea for actual engagement photos. I, however, was instantly inspired! The starting score of love-love in tennis is so fitting for an engagement session!
well you know i love this
Props are a trend but the tennis theme was subtle and very cute- I heart when clients incorporate their lives and personalities in their session
THIS IS SOOOOOOOOO beautiful!!!!
What a stunning couple. I am pretty sure Nadyia went my my HS-such a gorgrous girl. I love the tennis theme too. You never let me down laura, always loving your cute and fun sessions.
They are a gorgeous couple! I LOVE her ring. :) Another great job by an amazing photographer! :)
Very cool — I love when couples do something fun with their e-sessions. Looks like you made the most of it.
YES!!! Tennis? Best, most natural prop ever. Love it.
I LOVE these!!!
Meet Nadyia & Abhik. They are as sweet as they are gorgeous! I 'met' Nadyia online years ago, so I was surprised and flattered when she remembered me and emailed to let me know that she was engaged! We finally met in person, and N&A decided to hire me as their photographer! I can't wait to shoot their multi-day Hindu/Indian wedding next summer. It's going to be amazing!
Beautiful couple! Hindu weddings are stunning!
WOW Laura! I think this is my favorite engagement session ever of yours…they are so cute! Can't wait to see part 2. :)
Very subliminal Laura! Love the pictures and you're the best!
Laura, they keep getting better and better! Very excited to see the rest!!! We are totally gonna "LOVE" them ;-)
sooooo, beautiful and such a nice work LI!!!!
These are so so beautiful. Love them.
I love how bright and crisp and clean all these are — really amazing work, Laura. (and what a beautiful couple too!)
Wowzers! I see some beautiful children in their future! :D
Oh, this looks truly magical! Love MN Fall! Awesome job!
Reminds me of Alice in Wonderland. Beautiful and very warm! I love autumn! Where and when were these pics taken? The colors were PERFECT! My favorite is the last pic – looks like the trees are on fire.
Gorgeous. My kinds of colours x
Amazing! Just another reason to love fall- all the beautiful colors! :)
I just LOVE the colors!
Oh my gosh these are INCREDIBLE!! Those colors and the light! Just gorgeous Laura :)

I've implemented something similar (90 comments)
I've implemented a similar solution for one of my web apps.
It encrypts the data in the client with a password that they provide before it gets sent to the server. The client also decrypts the value when it receives it from the server.
The password is kept in LocalStorage (a feature of HTML5) so that it is never transmitted to the server.
Assuming the client application is not compromised, this is a great way to keep data secret even from the service operator.
Unfortunately, you won't see this scheme implemented in many apps because almost everyone's business model these days is all about scraping your data for use by advertisers.

He needs to do something like a Kickstarter campaign or just accept donations. It's not difficult to setup a not-for-profit in Canada such that your tax implications would be negligible (if anything). The whole thing is considered an R&D expense, anyway, if he wanted to go the for-profit route. If anything, he'd receive a tax credit for it if he booked it on his personal or small business expenses.

A woman pushes her grocery cart through the snowy store parking lot on Monday, in Butler County, in western Pennsylvania.
(Undated) -- The midstate appears to have fared well after two different storms blasted Pennsylvania.
A winter weather advisory remains in effect until seven this morning for Adams, Cumberland, Franklin, Juniata, Mifflin, Perry, Snyder, Union and York counties.
Governor Tom Wolf has declared a state of emergency in the commonwealth.
"The proclamation is important because it actually authorizes state agencies to work together to actually bring people in that they might not ordinarily bring in," he says. "It also allows them to avoid some of the time-consuming bid procedures."
The National Guard activated 150 guardsmen and women.
Governor Wolf outlines the state's response to the winter storms at a press conference At PEMA Headquarters in Dauphin County.
Wolf says the eastern part of the state looks to be the hardest hit.
"We have plenty of equipment (and) plenty of salt, for what we have to do here," he says. "PennDOT is also ready to deploy trucks to areas of need like the Lehigh Valley and the Philadelphia are, if that's necessary."
The Pennsylvania Turnpike says all roads into New Jersey, New York Metro area, and Connecticut are closed. Alternate routes northbound include Interstate 81.
Philadelphia International Airport says most flights scheduled for today have been canceled but there were no plans to close the airport.
Spokeswoman Diana Gerace says pillows, blankets, bottled water, snacks and kits containing personal care items will be distributed to stranded passengers and there will be some cots available in designated sleeping zones.
Amtrak has suspended rail service in the New England region and modifed service between New York and Washington due to snowy conditions.
The Acela Express and Northeast Regional service between New York and Boston will be suspended today.
Other rail lines running between New York City and Albany, New York; Brunswick, Maine and Boston; Washington and St. Albans, Vermont; and New Haven, Connecticut and Springfield, Massachusetts are also suspended.
Rail service between New York and Washington will be modified, and passengers should expect reduced frequency in service.
(State College) -- A state court has blocked a bid by a Penn State alumnus to gain access to email exchanges between the state attorney general's office and an independent group that was investigating the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse case at the university.
The ruling came Monday on the correspondence between state prosecutors and investigators hired by trustees and led by former FBI Director Louis Freeh.
The three-judge Commonwealth Court panel said the material falls under "investigative exceptions'' in Pennsylvania laws governing transparency.
Ryan Bagwell, a 2002 Penn State graduate, said he disagrees with the decision but an appeal is unlikely.
He earlier won an appeals court decision that he's entitled to see communications between Penn State's board of trustees and a member who was state secretary of education at the time.
The 98th Farm Show offers unparalleled agri-tainment and culinary delights. But it also has a distinct smell. You know it as soon as you walk through the doors. WITF's Mary Wilson went to find out how the cause of that omnipresent smell is disposed of throughout the week.
Sure, the Farm Show is known for decadent milkshakes, for the unbearable cuteness that is the duck cam watching ducklings line up for a water slide, and for the thousands of farm animals that call the indoor complex home for some part of the eight-day affair.
Let's take that again: thousands of animals. Eating, moving, sleeping...
"We also have to deal with what comes out the other end. That's all part of taking care of animals." (layer underneath next line)
Meet Jim Sharp, Farm Show manager. He handles everything from ordering ribbons to organizing the largest outflow of – ahem -- animal excrement in Harrisburg every year.
"This is my 11th Farm Show....You kind of get thrown into the deep end and with manure it can get pretty deep, pretty fast."
At the Farm Show, the process of getting rid of all *it* resembles the postal system more than a simple bag and toss move.
"We try to keep some of it separate, actually. The difference is the type of bedding these animals use."
Manure is filed and sorted before being sent. There are three types of bedding – mulch, pine wood shavings, and straw.
Mulch is used by beef cattle.
"If they're using pine shavings... that'll go into a separate pile....dairy cattle also on a lot of shavings. Poultry, rabbits, they use a lot of shavings. Some horse owners use shavings."
And then there's straw.
"Overall, straw is horses, swine, sheep, goats, are the main users of straw."
Straw has the unique distinction of being the one kind of animal bedding that, once soiled, is so useful to someone else that it gets hauled away without costing the Farm Show a dime.
"The straw actually goes to mushroom growers, down in the southeast part of the state. That is truly recycled quite nicely."
But that's outside the building. Inside, there are still thousands of Farm Show visitors milling around between stalls, and thousands of animals doing what's only natural on their way to and from the various show arenas.
.".. ideally, if an animal is walking to a show ring or they're going to the washrack, if the animal does its business, it's really the exhibitor's responsibility to clean that up. Some people are better at that than others and sometimes there's some piles left behind and aren't taken care of. In those situations, our staff will jump on that."
"I'm sure if we talked to those guys, there'd probably be a little undercurrent of really folks, relaly? You missed that? You didn't see that happening?"
(horse room sound)
"In the tack room, honey."
Sam Howell, wearing a fleece embroidered with the word "Pappy," stood watching over his young grandchildren as they groomed miniature horses the day of the mini-horse pull. (layer sound)
"Where's your yellow bucket? It's probably in the wagon, honey."
A small pile appeared where mini-horses named Spanky and Sweet Pea had been standing. Howell directed his granddaughter, seven years old, to go get the pitchfork.
"They'll probably put it in the wheelbarrow and I'll take it out for them."
(mooing sound)
In the cattle room, Lewis Hilbert, from Adams County, cleaned up bedding around oblivious cows. (layer sound)
"There's a committee that comes by and makes sure everything's tidied up and so forth."
That committee, as Hilbert refers to it, is Sharp's team. He marshals them to take care of manure heaps throughout the Farm Show Complex.
"I just got a call, Jim, just a reminder, remember about this pile."
Sharp says he doesn't mind that the teams of scoopers are among the unsung heroes of the week.
"The truth of the matter is, you know, we all all deal with it every day. You have to deal with the crap, and so we do."
Dodge ye obstacles where ye must, Farm Show visitors, and, as Sharp says, if you don't succeed – kick it off in the parking lot. Preferably not in the wrong pile.
Mary Wilson, WITF News, at the Farm Show.

(Harrisburg) -- A section of Interstate 81 in Dauphin County has been reopened after a tractor-trailer jack-knifed and a truck filled with cases of beer crashed into the median.
PennDOT says northbound lanes were closed between Exit 77 and Exit 80 after the crash in West Hanover Township around 2:00 a.m. today.
An agency spokesman says crews had removed the jack-knifed truck and were unloading the beer truck. Cases of Bud Light were strewn about the snow-covered median.
Speed restrictions are in place on Interstate 81 from Hazleton to Scranton and Interstate 80 from State College to the Poconos.
]]>(Undated) -- Snow is falling across the midstate, which is making for a tricky morning commute and leading schools to delay the start of classes or close for the day.
PennDOT has hundreds of trucks out salting the roads and plowing.
The entire region is under a winter weather advisory, except in Berks County where a winter weather advisory goes into effect at 12:00 p.m. today through 3:00 p.m. tomorrow.
PennDOT Supervisors Mike Keiser and Dave Rock show Governor Tom Wolf (right) road salt at the Yocumtown stockpile off Interstate 83 in York County,
Governor Tom Wolf says he's been talking with the PennDOT, the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency and the National Guard.
"We don't know how big of a deal this is going to be, but I want to make sure we are prepared," he says. "We have plenty of salt, plenty of trucks and back-ups. So, we're ready."
Wolf says if you don't need to travel today, you should stay off the roadways so PennDOT can keep them clear.
"If you see some of these big pieces of equipment out there plowing or putting down brine or salt, give them a wide berth," he says.
Some airlines have already announced plans to cancel flights in preparation for tonight's storm.
According to the National Weather Service in State College, snow fall totals through tonight could range from:
Two to four inches in Columbia, Lancaster and Schuylkill counties
Three to six inches in Adams, Dauphin, Juniata, Lebanon, Northumberland, Perry, Snyder, Union and York counties
Rour to eight inches in Berks, Cumberland, Franklin and Mifflin counties.
A state court will soon decide if more natural gas leasing can occur in Pennsylvania's public forests. So far, much of the debate has focused on impacts to plants and animals. But as WITF's StateImpact Pennsylvania reporter Marie Cusick details, some gas companies have been blocking people from accessing public roads and forests.
The 2014 Pennsylvania gubernatorial election was historic, breaking trends in gubernatorial politics going back decades as Democratic challenger Tom Wolf bested incumbent Republican Governor Tom Corbett in November. Since a 1968 change to the state constitution allowing second terms, no incumbent governor had lost his reelection bid -- until this year.
Over the course of the year, WITF's team of reporters put together a series of reports highlighting the key issues facing the state in the run-up to primary and general elections -- such as the lack of dialogue on how to help the commonwealth's struggling cities, the debate over enacting a severance tax on the natural gas industry and what to do about the state's ailing pension systems.
This entry is 30 minutes and has been edited for time.
1. Communities across Pennsylvania are facing increasing pressure to stay solvent. Yet, gubernatorial candidates in both parties have been largely silent on how they'd deal with state laws that complicate efforts to address the financial strains on many cities, townships and boroughs. WITF's Keystone Crossroads reporter Emily Previt takes a look at why areas where half of the commonwealth's population lives are being left out of the discussion.
2. The race for governor is bringing back to life an old debate about whether the state should tax the natural gas industry. It's also raising questions about how much of the state should be open for drilling. To explain where the candidates stand on these issues, let's turn now to our StateImpact Pennsylvania reporters -- WHYY'S Katie Colaneri and Marie Cusick from WITF in Harrisburg.
3. The four Democratic gubernatorial candidates have talked about their personal stories, their support for greater education funding, and finding ways to generate revenue. But judging by the warnings from credit rating agencies, the largest financial headache facing the commonwealth is what it owes in future pension payouts to state and school retirees.WITF's Mary Wilson reports from the state Capitol, when it comes to paying off that debt, the candidates aren't exactly bubbling over with ideas.
4: Outside of a passing mention of Medicaid expansion or an alternative known as Healthy Pennsylvania, health care doesn't get attention as Governor Corbett and Tom Wolf stump from campaign rally to campaign rally. But the state has a say over many things, from hospital licensing to screening for disorders in newborns to prescription drug dispensing guidelines. As part of Transforming Health, WITF's Ben Allen looks at where the two stand, and whether the issue matters to voters.
5.Voter turnout for Pennsylvania's gubernatorial elections has dropped 12 percent during the past two decades. The decline is more drastic in urban centers, particularly in the Commonwealth's distressed municipalities. But when WITF's Keystone Crossroads reporter Emily Previti crunched the numbers, she found some communities are bucking those trends.
6. Republican Governor Tom Corbett staked his first campaign on fiscal discipline and a no-tax pledge. Now, more voters than ever before are saying they're concerned schools got the short end of the stick during his tenure. Pollsters say Corbett could become the first Pennsylvania governor to lose re-election since second terms were legalized in 1968. WITF's Mary Wilson reports on his efforts to stage a comeback and make history November fourth.
7. The Democratic candidate for governor launched his political campaign with a television ad blitz and is ahead in the polls in the race against incumbent Republican Tom Corbett. Tom Wolf has been knocked as a tax-and-spend liberal with ill-defined policy plans, but the biggest question is how he'll work with a Legislature likely to remain in GOP control. WITF's Mary Wilson reports, the York County businessman points to his experience serving his community in the midstate for clues.

(Philadelphia) -- People across the midstate are being warned to prepare for snow, which will be followed by heavier snow and cold temperatures.
The National Weather Service in State College says a winter weather advisory will go into effect from 6:00 p.m. this evening until 7:00 p.m. tomorrow for the entire region. A winter storm watch will also kick-in for Lancaster, Lebanon and York tomorrow afternoon until Tuesday morning.
Forecasters say two to four inches could fall in Columbia and Schuylkill counties, two to six inches in Berks, Dauphin, Lancaster, Lebanon, Northumberland, Union and York counties, and three to seven in Adams, Cumberland, Franklin, Juniata, Mifflin, Perry and Snyder counties through tomorrow afternoon
A major coastal storm tomorrow night into Tuesday is expected
Forecasters warn the storm could have "a major impact on commerce and travel.''
As meteorologist Dean Iovino of the National Weather Service puts it: "Winter's here. It's finally arrived.''
Attorney General Kathleen Kane arrives at a news conference Wednesday, January 21, in Philadelphia.
(Harrisburg) --The unusual, court-ordered probe into whether Pennsylvania's attorney general's office illegally shared secret investigative material with a newspaper keeps mystifying the state's legal community.
Now there are questions about the intentions of last week's Supreme Court order.
It told Montgomery County's district attorney to halt, at least temporarily, any prosecution "stemming from'' a grand jury presentment that recommended criminal charges be filed against Attorney General Kathleen Kane.
Prosecutors and former prosecutors now disagree over whether the court wants to stop Montgomery County District Attorney Risa Ferman from investigating Kane, even if she conducts her own investigation.
Ferman and the court aren't commenting.
Meanwhile, the high court plans to review the legality of a judge's appointment of a hand-picked lawyer to act as a special prosecutor to investigate Kane's office.
Penn State students Jackie Jones, left, of Pittsburgh, and Jacqueline Browne, center, from South River, NJ., man a bake sale table in front of the Penn State Student Bookstore in State College, January 16. As part of the NCAA sanctions against Penn State in the wake of the Jerry Sandusky child abuse scandal, 112 of Paterno's 409 wins were vacated. The NCAA has restored the 112 wins as part of a settlement with the school before a scheduled trial on the legality of the 2012 consent decree it will replace.
(Harrisburg) -- Two state officials are asking a judge to dismiss a lawsuit against Penn State and the NCAA over the penalties related to the Jerry Sandusky child abuse case.
Senate Majority Leader Jake Corman and state Treasurer Rob McCord have asked a Commonwealth Court judge to mark the case as settled.
A letter between Penn State and the treasury department calls for the university to send the state $36 million within 10 days of the dismissal order and another $12 million by July.
The money will fund child-abuse prevention efforts.
The parties reached a deal last week to restore 112 wins to Penn State, ending punitive sanctions imposed after Sandusky's 2012 conviction on child molestation charges.
Sandusky was Penn State's assistant football coach and also the founder of the Second Mile nonprofit for disadvantaged children. He's serving a lengthy prison sentence but maintains he's innocent.
(Wilkes Barre) -- One of the main figures in a northeastern Pennsylvania juvenile justice scandal has been disbarred from the practice of law in the commonwealth.
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has imposed the penalty on 55-year-old Robert Powell, the former co-owner of two for-profit youth detention centers.
Powell pleaded guilty in 2009 to concealing a felony and an accessory charge in a kickback scheme that led the state Supreme Court to vacate the convictions of thousands of juveniles who appeared before a now-jailed state judge in Luzerne County.
He was sentenced to 18 months in federal prison and was released in 2013.
Powell was temporarily suspended from the state bar in 2009, and the latest action makes that suspension permanent.
]]>(Harrisburg) -- Pennsylvania's unemployment rate fell below the five percent mark for the first time since 2008, dropping by three-tenths of a percentage point in December for the third straight month.
The state Department of Labor and Industry says the seasonally adjusted rate in December was 4.8 percent, Pennsylvania's post-recession low.
That's down from 5.1 percent in November and 5.7 percent in September.
The national rate is currently 5.6 percent.
In a survey of households, the department estimates that the labor force, or the number of people working or looking for work, fell by 1,000 to remain below its 2012 peak.
Employment rose by 13,000, climbing closer to 6.1 million, while unemployment fell by 14,000 to 309,000.
A separate survey of employers found non-farm payrolls grew by about 8,000.
At just above 5.8 million, payrolls remain below pre-recession
File Photo
(Harrisburg) -- The man who calls himself the executive director of Pennsylvania's Office of Open Records is on the job and so is the agency's acting executive director.
Erik Arneson, a former state Senate aide appointed director by Republican Governor Tom Corbett in his final days in office, showed up for work today, one day after being fired by Democratic Governor Tom Wolf.
Arneson, who's not being paid and has been stripped of his keys and parking permit, and Nathan Byerly, the deputy whom Wolf named as acting director, are operating under an unusual power-sharing agreement.
"The law is very clear that it is a six-year term," he tells the statewide program Radio PA Roundtable. "If the intent of that were to allow the governor to allow to willy-nilly to replace the executive director of this office, the phrase 'six-year' term would be meaningless and absurd. It's just as plain as the words on the page."
Wolf says he doesn't like the fact the former GOP state Senate aide was named head of the Office of Open Records less than two weeks before inauguration day.
Arneson says he anticipates litigation over the conflicting actions, but no lawsuits have been filed yet.
"That's what this fight is about. Will the Office of Open Records be independent from the governor's office?....whichs what was intended and which is absolutely necessary for the office to function properly," he says.
Byerly says he's overseeing the agency's staff and its busy workload, while Arneson is focusing on protecting the agency's independence.
]]>File Photo: In this photo taken with a fisheye lens, Jeff Reinbold of the National Park Service, left, walks with Gordon Felt, who lost his brother Edward Felt on Flight 93, on September 10, 2014
(Shanksville) -- The superintendent of the Flight 93 National Memorial in Somerset County has been promoted to a job with the National Park Service in Washington, D.C.
Jeff Reinbold worked in Washington when he was sent to be project manager of the memorial project in January 2003.
He was eventually promoted to superintendent of National Parks in Western Pennsylvania in 2011, which also included oversight of the Johnstown National Flood Memorial and other sites.
The memorial in Stonycreek Township is located where the hijacked United Airlines flight crashed during the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, killing all 40 passengers and crew.
Reinbold is returning to Washington in March as the service's assistant director for partnerships and civic engagement.
Stephen Clark, a 29-year veteran employee, is replacing Reinbold in Pennsylvania.
(State College) -- The midstate could be in for some nasty weather this weekend.
A winter weather advisory goes into effect for Adams, Cumberland, Franklin, Dauphin, Juniata, Lancaster, Lebanon, Mifflin, Perry, Schuylkill and York counties from 7:00 p.m. tonight through 1:00 p.m. tomorrow. In Berks County, it will go into effect at 10:00 p.m. tonight through 1:00 p.m. tomorrow.
The National Weather Service in State College says a storm tonight and tomorrow morning could drop four to six inches of snow.
Areas to the north, such as Northumberland, Union and Snyder counties, will see lighter snowfall totals of around one to three inches.
Meteorologist Barry Lambert says the NWS is keeping a close watch on another weather system Sunday night that could produce accumulations of up to several inches across the commonwealth.

Davis Cemetery
The reason I named it Davis rather than Matt Davis is because the person who was cutting the grass in the Davis cemetery enclosed with chain link fence referred to this cemetery as the Old Davis Cemetery and told me how to get to it (its behind the one
enclosed with chain link fence, difficult to see from Rt 158). He further indicated his wife was a Davis and related to people buried in both cemeteries.

Get AccessAbstract
The magnetoencephalography (MEG) signal was recorded while subjects watched a video containing separate blocks of affective and cognitive advertisements and recalled slides extracted from the video a day later. An earlier behavioural study using the same video material showed that the affective advertisements were better recalled and that administration of propranolol (a beta-adrenergic blocker) abolished this effect. Magnetic field tomography (MFT) was used to extract tomographic estimates of activity millisecond by millisecond from the continuous MEG signal. Statistically significant differences between affective and cognitive blocks were identified in posterior and prefrontal areas. Cognitive blocks produced stronger activity in posterior parietal areas and superior prefrontal cortex in all three subjects. Affective blocks modulated activity in orbitofrontal and retrosplenial cortex, amygdala and brainstem. Individual contributions to the statistical maps were traced in real time from milliseconds to many seconds. Time-locked responses from the recall session were used to compare average and single trial MFT solutions and to combine activations from all subjects into a common anatomical space. The last step produced statistically significant increases in occipital and inferior ventral cortex between 100 and 200 ms compared to a prestimulus baseline.

I had to leave
The night staff were very pleasant
The line to leave in the morning 11am was horrendous
The rooms are clean and beds are comfortable it's a good location for me
The reception staff are unfriendly never smile. I booked an executive room which was supposed to have TV on demand with film channels which was not working and comes as an extra with executive suite safe was not working cleaning staff let their self in my room in morning when I was sleeping in bed
Atmosphere, location, access to the city,local access,Transport and the overall cleanliness of the hotel.
I can't think of any dislike.
Comfortable room although we had to pay for the upgrade. Good breakfast. We appreciated being able to control the temperature and being able to open windows . Friendly staff. Robert
The hotel debited the payment on the first day of our stay instead of the final day. The coffee is of a poor quality. If you want you have to pay for it. Since the charge for breakfast is over £13 each it should be within the budget to give a different coffee to guests. NO free morning papers
The staff were friendly, and the room was clean and quiet enough. The bar stayed open till 4am and the room service for certain items was the same.
There were a lot of very drunk people at the bar (the downside of being so close to Shoreditch I suppose), and occasionally very noisy. The car park was £20 overnight, and you had to get a staff member to let you in EVERY time, so if you are coming and going a lot, this becomes rather a pain.
Well-designed room, well fitted. Good services in room Very polite service. Everything we needed.
Despite the TV and radio services being generally good, couldn't access radio in the mornings and would have appreciated BBC 24 Hour news service on TV and/or BBC World Service on radio.
The comfort of the beds were unbelievable. Also the cleanliness of the room was excellent.
Location. A complete change from the norm of London. If you walked about 5mimuits you come to Broadmoor Market. Really liked the authenticity of the restaurants etc. a taxi will take you at not a great cast to central places. The hotel staff were 100% helpful, super clean. Food a little expensive but "Hay" it's London. Will stay there again.
Bar staff were really friendly and always smiling! The bar and room service was also open till 4am. The free wifi was reliable and there is also robes,slippers and decent toiletries in the bathroom.
Good reception, very friendly staff, clean rooms, good service. Good price!
A bit cold in the room, slow check-out because of a queue in front of us. It is not Shoreditch but Hackney.
Relative quiet and good comfort
Location is only fair .
staff available
1>when the 100 pounds of two reservation come back??!! 2>air conditioning don't working, bad cleaning of the rooms 3>payment was to be made not at the time of booking but at the checkout as promised...
Nice rooms, very clean, convenient to the flower market, and short walk from several cool restaurants
Staff was not especially friendly, food at the restaurant was not all that exceptional
Executive room was spacious had all everything we needed. comfortable bed clean room pay per view channels it was a pleasant stay and would book again
reception staff were a little un welcoming and there were a few things missing from our room apon arrival ie wifi password dressing gown, safe was locked
staff location hotel taxi service free wifi power shower local nightlife cleanliness
expensive breakfast rooms great for 1 or 2 night stay small car parking facility
Clean room Cool Barman Bus stop close to the hotel
Tiny bath
Location was nice room services was nice
Overstaying charge is too expensive
We've used the hotel several times before so chose it due to location and it having it's own car park.
The window in 411 would not close properly and in London an open window means there is no quiet due to traffic noises. I am not a good sleeper and attend sleep clinic at hospital in an attempt to help me with this, so this was a real problem for me.
Pillows were poor quality, so much has so it gave me a crick neck for which I had to take pain killers and a remedial shoulder massage. Other than that hotel was very nice. I would like to use the hotel again but I am concerned the Pillows might cause me problems again.
I booked this hotel through Booking as a gift to my son. The hotel refused admission without the card that had been used to book, as the payment had been made through you it is important that you advise this requirement to save the type of embarrassment that was caused to him and his companion.
The reception and bar staff were brilliant! Very fair, looked after me and my friends. Respect was mutual
The beds!

so are all coffee grinders bad for grain milling??? are there any that have a variety of settings that works well for grain?? thanks for the help
Offhand, I'd say the motor in your average coffee grinder isn't up to the task of grinding 10+ pounds of grain at a go. If one were to work, it would be a burr grinder (which works like a motorized millstone), and a seriously robust one at that. Burr grinders allow for a variety of settings with relative precision; we french press devotees love the coarse grind, and espresso folk like it ground to dust. Unfortunately, a serious burr grinder with a big motor costs as much as a grain mill. A blade grinder doesn't give you very precise control over the grind, and doesn't hold enough grain to be useful.
I used a blade grinder once for an extract batch. It did the job, but I can't reccommend it for and all-grain batch. Let me also say I made sure I did not turn the grain into flour and only hit the pulse a few times.
it's two different machines for two different purposes. coffee grinders, both blade and burr do their job by cutting, so malt going thru both will have the husk chopped to crap, not good for sparging as you need intact husk to make a good filter bed. grain mills work by crushing, so the soft husk stays intact and the hard kernel gets broken. for small batches of specialty grains, you could use a coffee grinder, but for all grain, it's not a good idea.
Turn up the good, turn down the suck! -Deaner
I had seen pictures where some brew club had taken a commercial burr grinder (like the 3 foot tall one you see at the grocery store) and modified it to grind even courser than it originally could. It's probably not as cost effective as a corona mill and really is using the same method to grind but it is do able.
I use a commercial grinder as described in the previous post. I found if you set it very coarse, it seems to do an adequate job for large (10 + gal.) all grain batches. Not perfect, as some of the husks are chewed up, which I believe is having an effect on my efficiency. The grinding head itself looks VERY much like a more aggressive corona grinding head. My company works a lot with a local coffee company, which is where we got the machine, for free, which is why I am using it. I have recently found out that they have a couple extra grinding heads for the unit, so I am gonna attempt to grind down the more aggressive teeth to something akin to the corona shape. Definitely makes quick work of large grain bills!
I use an old Bunn machine too. Probably a 1 HP motor. Works good on big batches, but needs to be adjusted just right. The RPM is fast, gets the grain warm. Good idea to modify the burrs, maybe I'll do some R&D.
zombie, zombie, zombie
We use a burr grinder for our coffee. The instructions specifically state NOT to use it to grind more than one pot of coffee without letting it cool a while. This would make this home model completely unsuitable for crushing 10-16 pounds of grain. Now, if you could get your hands on one of those grocery store monster coffee mills, that would probably be a different story.....

Market technician John Roque has, for quite some time now, not believed the Fed would be pausing anytime soon. His chart below shows the year/year % change in the CPI. What is significant about it is that four of the prior five times this indicator has moved above the average (3.85%) it has worked to, at least, the 6% area. Inflation doesn't usually peak until the 12-month moving average (darker line) rolls over. That hasn't happened yet, implying inflation has more to run.

I frequently discuss Microsoft, and for many many reasons: They are a tech bellwether, a huge part of the S&P and Nasdaq 100 (and a smaller part of the Dow). They have also been a thorn in the side of new technology development and innovation, but now that so much of it has moved to the web, its gotten away from them.
This is a good thing.
One of the commenters said some time ago that I was "irrational in my hatred for Microsoft." That's hardly the case; Microsoft has put a lot of cash in my pocket, so at worst, I should be grateful to them for the windfall.
However, I am still an objective observer, and I believe that Mister Softee is not what most investors think it is: They are hardly innovators; rather, they copy other people's work relentlessly, until by default they own the standard. Their products are kludgy, bloated and anti-instinctive; They are hardly the elegant, easy to use software first dreampt up by science fiction writers decades ago.
From an investing standpoint, their fastest growth days are behind
them, yet they are hardly a value stock — yet. (Cody and I have disagreed about this for some time). The leaders of the last bull Market are rarely the leaders of the next. Despite this, Wall Street still loves
them, with 28 of 32 analysts rating them a "Buy" or "Strong Buy." (BR: That was 2 months ago; Its now down to 21 "Buy" or "Strong Buy," 10 "Hold," and 2 "Sell" or "Strong Sell." ) They
are widely owned by active mutual fund managers and closet Indexers.
Many people think of them as this well run money machine; In reality, they are very poorly managed by a group of techno-nerds with very little in the way of management skills. Even their vaunted money making abilities are profoundly misunderstood: Its primarily their monopolies in Operating Systems (Windows) and Productivity Software (Office) that generates the vast majority of their revenue and profits. Their Server software and SQL Database make money, but hardly the big bucks of Windows or Office. MSN is a loser, MSNBC is a dud, their Windows CE is hardly a barn burner — even X-Box has cost them billions more than it is likely to generate in profits over the next 5 years.
Lest you think its just me who thinks this way, consider no less an authority than Robert X. Cringely. He is the author of the best-selling book Accidental Empires (How the Boys of Silicon Valley Make Their Millions, Battle Foreign Competition, and Still Can't Get a Date). He has starred in several PBS specials, including Triumph of the Nerds: A history of the PC industry.
After Gates resignation, Cringely wrote this:
"Microsoft is in crisis, and crises sometimes demand bold action. The company is demoralized, and most assuredly HAS seen its best days in terms of market
dominance. In short, being Microsoft isn't fun anymore, which probably means that being Bill Gates isn't fun anymore, either. But that, alone, is not reason enough for Gates to leave. Whether he instigated the change or someone else did, Gates had no choice but to take this action to support the value of his own Microsoft shares.Let me explain through an illustration. Here's how Jeff Angus described Microsoft in an earlier age in his brilliant business book, Managing by Baseball:
"When I worked for a few years at Microsoft Corporation in the early '80s, the company had no decision-making rules whatsoever. Almost none of its managers had management training, and few had even a shred of management aptitude. When it came to what looked like less important decisions, most just guessed. When it came to the more important ones, they typically tried to model their choices on powerful people above them in the hierarchy. Almost nothing operational was written down…The tragedy wasn't that so many poor decisions got made — as a functional monopoly, Microsoft had the cash flow to insulate itself from the most severe consequences — but that no one cared to track and codify past failures as a way to help managers create guidelines of paths to follow and avoid."
Fine, you say, but that was Microsoft more than 20 years ago. How about today?
Nothing has changed except that the company is 10 times bigger, which means it is 10 times more screwed-up.
