I've had every damn bottle carbing problem under the sun. I doubt that your problem is entirely due to scalding the yeast. After the initial shock, the dilution in the beer would have brought the temp down to a reasonable (non-yeast-killing) temp within the first 1/5th of the beer being racked. The rest of the yeast, then, would be fine. I've found that adding some rehydrated dry yeast at bottling really helps as an insurance policy. I'd also get your bottles warmer than 65ºf...use a space heater (that's what I do) if you have one. Lastly, I've saved a few batches by opening up the cases once a day for a week and shaking each bottle so as to rouse any yeast that have decided to flocculate. This took my Destroyer of Worlds IIPA from flat to perfectly carbonated in about a week's time. I highly recommend this for any non-carbing or under-carbing batches.
Thanks everyone, I'll be trying some combination of this tonight. I do have an extra closet, but it's got silly things like my wife's wedding dress in it so I'm thinking a space heater might be problematic. I do have plenty of extra blankets though, and the bottles are in thick cardboard boxes, so I'll see if I can think of a way to heat them up.

The rest of the yeast, then, would be fine. [QUOTE] +1 on this. I never cool the priming solution & everthing is usually fine.
i'm eaves dropping here, trying to figure out why my last several batches have been flat. not all, but most of the bottles. i've had years of great brewing experinces, never a flat one. all the sudden,no head, got me quite frustrated. anyway, maybe the time thing, but some have set a month or more and are flat. but some have set in fridge after 2 or 3 weeks, so could be temp, bottles are stored in warm area prior to that. no issue with sugar, use 5oz, boil and cool before adding to wert. real carefull about sanitation and all, no contaminations. even tried the "give it a twirl" thing, to no avail. I'm thinking maybe didn't give it enough "warm time" to cure, do you think perhaps i should remove bottles from fridge and let them set awhile longer in 70ish area?
Definitely. Don't chill them until they are fully carbed- you'll be the yeast to sleep when you chill them. 70 degrees for three to four weeks is best, usually.
okay, so i screwed up with that, figured maybe. you said put the yeast to sleep, so i'm assuming i didn't "kill" it, anyway, do you think it will work out if i 'unchill' them and wait another 3 or so weeks?
Yes. Take them out of the fridge, and then swirl the bottles around to resuspend the dormant yeast.
okay gonna try that. thanks and i'll let ya know in about 3 weeks if it worked!
As other posters have said, temperature is everything. If your used the proper amount of priming sugar and your bottles were not toxic to the yeast (unrinsed bleach for example), and your OG wasn't more than the yeast can handle, then the only variable left is temperature. However from what you said about the cider you might be drowning the yeast in its own piss. After all, ale yeast will only tolerate alcohol between 8 and 12 percent, depending on the strain. Currently I've got an IPA that is having problems because I made a change to my procedure that gave me a much higher yield from the grain than I expected, and as a result the yeast isn't acting as expected. Keep your temps above 68, closer to 72 if possible when conditioning, and be aware that your yeast will die if you expect too much from it.

The male-dominated Marine Corps announced on Monday that it will allow women to train in Quantico, Virginia at its infantry officer school. Women will also be allowed to participate in ground combat battalions. Marine Corps commandant General James F. Amos announced these new rules in an All Marine Message (ALMAR).
According to General Amos, 40 women will be assigned to 19 battalions over the next couple of months. This will allow the Marine Corps to study women's performance in these units. Women are still restricted from joining infantry battalions. As the data is examined, roles for women in the Marine Corps may expand. General Amos wrote in the ALMAR, "I will consider the results and impact of the exception to the ground assignment policy, the quantitative research, and the total force survey as we make future recommendations regarding the potential assignment of women to ground combat element units."
This summer, women will be allowed to attend the three month long infantry course, but will not graduate as infantry officers. Instead, they will fill jobs currently open to women. Women are still prohibited from serving combat roles, but more than 140 women have been killed while fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq. Women make up 7 percent of the Marine Corps.

Peace, E. A. and Lea, P. J. and Darrall, N. M. (1995) The effect of open-air fumigation with SO2 and O3 on carbohydrate metabolism in Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) and Norway spruce (Picea abies). Plant, Cell and Environment, 18 (3). pp. 277-283. ISSN 1365-3040
Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
The carbohydrate metabolism of the needles of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) and Norway spruce (Picea abies) has been examined in trees that were exposed to SO2, and O3, in an open-air fumigation experiment located in the Liphook forest in southern England. Two-year-old seedlings were planted in 1985 in seven experimental plots. Five plots received fumigation treatments of SO2, O3 or a combination of these gases to give a 2 × 3 factorial design with one additional ambient plot Fumigation with SO2, occurred from May 1987 to December 1990 and O3, fumigation occurred from March to December 1988, May to December 1989 and February to December 1990. Five samples of needles for investigation of carbohydrate metabolism were taken between February and July 1989. The concentrations of soluble carbohydrates (including sucrose and hexoses) were greatly reduced in the needles taken from Scots pine growing in the treated plots, and were also reduced, but to a lesser extent, in the needles taken from Norway spruce. Little variation in the concentration of starch in the needles of either species was detected. The activities of the two final enzymes of sucrose synthesis, sucrose phosphate synthase and sucrose 6-phos-phate phosphatase, were greatly reduced in the needles of Scots pine and were also reduced, but to a lesser extent, in the needles of Norway spruce in the fumigated plots. These reductions could be correlated with decreases in rates of photosynthetic CO2 assimilation determined by independent groups of researchers working on the Liphook site.

BATON ROUGE - The LSU softball team lost 4-3 to Mississippi State on Sunday, but the Tigers should have had at least one more run in their game at Tiger Park.
In the bottom of the second inning, with a runner on first, Tammy Wray hit a ball over the left field wall, but the would-be home run turned into a run-scoring single with an out as Wray ran past Allison Falcon on the basepath.
Although Falcon's run still counted, Wray was ruled out at first.
LSU had one final chance to tie or take the lead in the bottom of the 7th, but with the bases loaded and just one out, the Tigers struck out twice to end the game.

Del. pharmacist Costa gets 20 years in oxycodone scheme
- Jeff Blumenthal
- Reporter- Philadelphia Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+ | LinkedIn
A local pharmacist was sentenced to 20 years in prison for unlawfully distributing about 45,000 oxycodone pills, federal prosecutors in Philadelphia said Thursday.
Bruce E. Costa Jr., 37, of Thornton, Pa., a former pharmacist and pharmacy owner, grossed hundreds of thousands of dollars in illegal proceeds from the scheme, prosecutors said. In addition to the prison term, U.S. District Court Judge Leonard P. Stark ordered Costa to forfeit $2.28 million, plus the pharmacy property, and pay a fine of $100,000.
In 2008 and 2009, prosecutors said Costa operated Renaissance Family Pharmacy in Claymont, Del. Prosecutors said Costa used the pharmacy to order 100-count bottles of oxycodone 80 milligram pills — the strongest available dosage at the time — from drug wholesalers. He then unlawfully sold the pills to drug dealers for more than $1,000 per bottle. The government estimates he made more than $750,000 from the illegal drug enterprise.
Prosecutors said Costa's scheme came to an end in September 2009, shortly after the Delaware State Police and the FBI conducted surveillance on a drug dealer who met with Costa at the pharmacy. A federal jury in Wilmington, Del., found Costa guilty of all counts in 2011.

Sixteen-year-old Morgan lives in a hick town in the middle of Nebraska. College is two years away. Her mom was killed in a car accident when she was three, her dad drinks, and her stepmom is a non-entity. Her boyfriend Derek is boring and her coworker Rob has a very cute butt that she can't stop staring at. Then there's the kiss she shared with her classmate Tessa...
But when Morgan discovers that the one person in the world she trusted most has kept a devastating secret from her, Morgan must redefine her life and herself.
Praise for The Sky Always Hears Me:
"Written with candor and splashes of humor...this provocative story captures the essence of adolescent ennui and uncertainty through an uncensored first-person narrative. Stubborn, quick-witted and determined to make her dreams come true, Morgan will draw sympathy from readers."
—Publishers Weekly
"Morgan is a well-drawn character and her funny, frank, profane-but-literate first-person voice rings true and strong-teens might find it liberating to meet a character who can take on life's messiness and forgive it."—Kirkus Reviews
"Cronn-Mills does a great job of getting into the head of a teenager. The dialog fits and the drama is clearly evident.—Midwest Mix

Excellent decor, very well maintained. Quality fixtures and fittings. Excellent helpful staff. Beautiful quiet room.
Tiny TV in room. Bar only food and extremely small portions of food ( Vegetarian 'Wellington' was size of a small sausage roll!!) No car park at Hotel
Quiet room at back of hotel. Food good.
Restaurant service poor. No hotel information in bedroom.
The downstairs toilets off the main bar were a disgrace on the night I stayed and again the following morning.i know there was a match on that day and the hotel was busy but that's no excuse.
Area, restaurant
Room was dusty & unclean. The sink would not drain away, blocked. Could not regulate shower temp. Will need better IF stay again!!
friendly staff
opposite our room , some guests had food by room service and plates were left outside room for 12 hours or more , it stunk hallway out
Breakfast not good value service very slow. No one actually came to take my order as i joined my husband a little late so eventually i just left restaurant.
Friendly staff, grand facilities
Menu not as good as previous visits. Mistakes at the time of placing food order.
Location is easy to find and car park is only a short walk away - £6 for overnight which is reasonable. Receptionist was lovely on arrival and rooms were spacious with lovely bathing facilities. Hotel bar was reasonably priced, nice atmosphere and great service from Cory and Raoul. Breakfast was lovely with a great selection and service again was fab! Hotel very accommodating - we had a late check out for no extra charge. Cleaners knocked on the door 15 minutes before check out to make sure you was up, which I thought was good. Overall a good stay with a great night sleep. Would definitely recommend and have already booked to stay again!
locality,bar within the hotel served lovely food, staff did try to sort out the few problems we had.
Catch on the window didn't work couldn't shut it very noisy throughout the night. lamp didn't work, room very cold but staff did sort that out.
Just being wiv my boyfriend
They said I never paid when I was checking out
it's really close to the station.
it was so noisy when we stayed there. there was a party lasting for several hours, people sang really loudly, I could hear everything clearly from my room. it didnt stop until 11:30.
The staff on the Reception desk were extremely efficient, friendly and helpful, especially when recommending great places to eat. We hope to return!
Excellent staff
Freezing cold room - small heater switched completely off on arrival, bathroom no heating at all - tiled floor freezing. Grout all over the bathroom walls - not finished properly
The lady who welcomed us to the hotel was fantastic! Great customer service!
Paying £95 for a sub standard room. I wish I had stayed in a Premier Inn as It would of been better value for money and a comfier bed.
Staff were friendly and helpful, food was very reasonably priced and portioned. The room was spacious and comfortable. The hotel is very well situated in the centre of swansea.
Car parking was expensive. Other hotels i've been to, for example premier inn on wine street; who also dont have free parking, offer a discount on the multi-storey car park. The only other thing that was dissappointing was that there was no cocktail menu in the bar.
The hotel was run down and in need of a coat of paint. The room we got was apparently for a family. The room was shabby and dirty. You could stick to the bathroom floor. The so called double bed were two singles pushed together. The bedding was dirty and and holes in it. Once we got our room changed, we were in a very small double room. However it was cleaner. The bathroom had rust Staines and around the windows were mould. Not worth the money. I would not go back!
The staff were friendly and the bathroom was new and clean
The bed and the room itself are like a shoe box! Awful smell in the corridors, complained but nothing was done. Iron was covered in black burnt marks, (luckily checked just before ironing my white top!) room service didn't really exist, had to go downstairs to order, menu different (completely!) to the one in the room. Food distinctly average and expensive at £89 for a 1 night stay.
good service, fast check in and check out good breakfast
bar food in the evening was OK, not great
The staff were great, the breakfast was superb!
The high noise levels from the street
location near train station
breaksast too expensive,no choice of prices

Writing HTML with m4
Unfortunately, m4 needs some taming. A little time spent on familiarisation will pay dividends. Definitive documentation is available (for example, in the Emacs info documentation system) but, without being a complete tutorial, here are a few tips based on my experiences.
m4's quotation characters are the grave accent ` which starts the quote, and the acute accent ' which ends it. It may help to put all arguments to macros in quotes, for example:
_HEAD1(`This is a heading')
The main reason for using quotes is to prevent confusion if commas are contained in an argument to a macro, since m4 uses commas to separate macro parameters. For example, the line _CODE(foo, bar) would put the foo in the HTML output but not the bar. Use quotes in the line _CODE(`foo, bar'), and it works properly.
The biggest problem with m4 is that some versions of it swallow key words that it recognises, such as include, format, divert, file, gnu, line, regexp, shift, unix, builtin and define. You can protect these words by putting them in single quotes, for example:
Smart people `include' Linux in their list of computer essentials.
The trouble is, this is both inconvenient and easy to forget.
A safer way to protect keywords (my preference) is to invoke m4 with the -P or --prefix-builtins option. Then all built-in macro names are modified so that they all begin with the prefix m4_ and ordinary words are left as is. For example, using this option, one would write m4_define instead of define (as shown in the examples in this article). One hitch is that not all versions of m4 support this option—most notably some PC versions under MS-DOS.
Comment lines in m4 begin with the # character—everything from the # to the end of the line is ignored and output unchanged. If you want to use # in the HTML page, you must quote it like this: `#'. Another option (my preference) is to change the m4 comment character to something exotic with a line like this:
and not have to worry about # symbols in your text.
If you want to use comments in the m4 file but not have them appear in the final HTML file, use the macro m4_dnl (dnl = Delete to New Line). This macro suppresses everything until the next newline character.
m4_define(_NEWMACRO, `foo bar') m4_dnl This is a comment
Yet another way to have source code ignored is the m4_divert command. The main purpose of m4_divert is to save text in a temporary buffer for inclusion in the file later—for example, in building a table of contents or index. However, if you divert to "-1", it just goes to limbo-land. This option is useful for getting rid of the whitespace generated by the m4_define command. For example:
m4_divert(-1) diversion on m4_define(this ...) m4_define(that ...) m4_divert diversion turned off
Another tip for when things go wrong is to increase the number of error diagnostics that m4 outputs. The easiest way to do this is to add the following to your m4 file as debugging commands:
m4_debugmode(e) m4_traceon ... buggy lines ... m4_traceoff
It should be noted that HTML 3.0 does have an include statement that looks like this:
<!--#include file="junk.html" -->
However, the HTML include has the following limitations:
The work of including and interpreting the include is done on the server-side before downloading and adds overhead as the server has to scan files for include statements.
Most servers (especially public ISPs) deactivate this feature because of the large overhead.
Include is all you get—no macro substitution, no parameters to macros, no ifdef, etc., as with m4.
There are several other features of m4 that I have not yet exploited in my HTML ramblings so far, such as regular expressions. It might be interesting to create a "standard" stdlib.m4 for general use with nice macros for general text processing and HTML functions. By all means download my version of stdlib.m4 as a base for your own hacking. I would be interested in hearing of useful macros, and if there is enough interest, maybe a Mini-HOWTO could evolve from this article.
There are many additional advantages to using Linux to develop HTML pages, far beyond the simple assistance given by the typical typing aids and WYSIWYG tools. Certainly, I will go on using m4 until HTML catches up—I will then do my last make and drop back to using pure HTML. I hope you enjoy these little tricks and encourage you to contribute your own.
Bob Hepple has been hacking at Unix since 1981 under a variety of excuses and has somehow been paid for it at least some of the time. It's allowed him to pursue another interest—living in warm, exotic countries including Hong Kong, Australia, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Lesotho and (presently) Singapore. His initial aversion to the cold was learned in the UK. Ambition—to stop working for the credit card company and tax man and to get a real job. Bob can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Incredible sunrise view. Facilities were all very nice.
Bathroom was very small.
Quiet, clean, and comfortable. Close to my job site.
Spotty WiFi.
Friendly staff clean room And close to St. Augustine.
great view, nice an quiet, staff were excellent. will be back soon
didnt like bathroom tub was dirty, towels were not the cleanist, need a better selection of the breakfast. same breakfast everyday.
Located in the river front
As we enter into the room it was smelling bad. Found cockroaches in bathroom and blood dots on the bed probably for to bed bugs. Overall it was not upto the mark for the star rating
Cleaness, room size, zero noise in the room, confortable bed and excellent breakfast.
An extra charge for $15.00 above the invoice. The receptionist told me that this amount is charged in advance in any case i use .., and this amount will be credited to my card . I think this is not good and unnecessary.
This hotel was an unexpected surprise! It is a beautiful property with an exceptional staff. If I travel to this area again I will definitely stay here.

We're not the seller At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time? Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.

Sports and Trouble
20 Sep, 2012
Sports are one of the biggest phenomena to grace our finest television screens across the country. They started out as the majority of programming as far back as the 1940s and '50s, when the target audience of TV sellers was generally male. Now, the biggest single television event of the year is the Super Bowl. Some of the richest and most successful people in the country are professional athletes. But what makes sports an even more entertaining and provocative medium is that they are filled with people who, believe it or not, are just like you and me in that they are just as susceptible to doing some pretty stupid stuff from time to time. It's the sense of realism that we get by seeing these larger-than-life superstars in less than desirable situations that almost makes the entire idea of sports one big reality TV show where everyone's the star and no one's really happy.
Firstly, there is the ever-popular issue of the replacement referees in the NFL. If you were unaware of the plight of the ref to this point, allow me to quickly fill you in. Refs work part-time, and most of them have other jobs than making awkward signals at crowds of thousands of people every Sunday. Apparently, just like the players in the NFL, refs too can go on strike to demand more money and better rights.
Any idiot who's ever seen a football game can tell you that being a ref isn't that hard of a position, and would readily step up to take the place of someone who greedily wants more money to do it. And, not to put it so harshly, the NFL has hired from below the level of refereeing talent than they normally would have due to the lockout and contractual obligations of referees at the college level. I'm not saying that they aren't fit to do the job, but I will say that making the jump from the Lingerie Football League to the National Football League obviously poses some challenges.
And while the bad is to be expected – the games throughout the first two weeks of the regular season are on average several minutes longer – there are also some bright spots to be talked about, like the week one challenge rate being upheld at its highest ever percentage even amongst regular referees. You could also say something about Shannon Eastin, the first female referee in the NFL. Is this groundbreaking event caused by problems reaching a collective bargaining agreement really just affirmative action? I'd say it's at least a step in the right direction, especially since now Ed "Biceps" Hochuli won't be the only one wearing a really tight shirt anymore.
There's also a lot of negative scrutiny that gets placed on the individuals in this spotlight. In some cases, the actions of one person can be enough to drag an entire organization through the dirt. Most recently, as of this Monday, there have been a few notable incidents. Hours after helping the Atlanta Falcons to a Monday Night Football victory, 9-year veteran running back Michael Turner was arrested on DUI charges after being stopped for reportedly going 97 mph in a 65 mph zone.
Turner is not the first, nor do I expect him to be the last, athlete to be arrested for drinking and driving. The NFL's current policy on such incidents is to wait until all official court proceedings have been completed, so Turner, along with numerous other offenders, likely will not see punishment handed down from commissioner Roger Goodell until after the season is over.
The MLB, however, is often times much swifter in issuing justice in the cases of players acting out. The most recent noteworthy event involved Toronto Blue Jays' shortstop Yunel Escobar wearing what is being perceived as a homophobic slur during a game on Monday. The phrase, "Tu ere maricon," was written on the black eye-strips that players commonly wear to shield their eyes from sunlight. The MLB has been known to suspend players multiple games for less than questionable actions both on and off the field.
Players with trouble controlling themselves are just an interesting facet of the subplot that keeps the wide world of sports one of the nation's leading television programming options. The narrative can very easily encompass the majority of the focus of the viewer nowadays. This aspect is just one of many that draws much publicity to sporting events as a show. Publicity often comes from the provocative nature of the show, and sports are no exception. If you ever start to think that a sport can become dull, just remember that the people involved are real people, and winning really just isn't everything, all things considered.

For Jack Reacher being invisible has become a habit. He spends his days digging swimming pools by hand and his nights as the bouncer in the local strip club in the Florida Keys. He doesn't want to be found.
But someone has sent a private detective to seek him out. Then Reacher finds the guy beaten to death with his fingertips sliced off.
It's time to head north and work out who is trying to find him and why.
©1999 Lee Child (P)2013 Isis Publishing Ltd, Random House Audiobooks
Seems the author has developed a set formula and sticks too it just making the bad guys more bizarre. Probably my last Reacher novel
"Very disappointing!"
Cut out all the endless description of every movement, room etc that added nothing to the story or characters.
These days we all own calculators, so endelss calculations of how many seconds how many metres etc were just waffle put in to stretch a poorly developed plot to a never ending story.
I am a fan of all the Reacher stories, but this one was the exception - it was just plain boring.
The reader made things worse, he would be more suited to reading cook books for old ladies.
Why, why would ask anyone else but Jeff Harding to read Reacher ??????
Definitely nothing read by Mr Hagon, sorry mate look for something else to do.
Not many Reacher books left on here, but you can't go wrong with Jeff Harding, he makes bad writers sound good and good writers sound better!
A complete re-write.
None, I would turn it into a first person novel.
"Jack Reacher.. Don't mess with this man"
Reacher novels have me hooked. I was not disappointed by this one and it kept me on the edge of my seat.
"Really poor production spoilt story"
I have to say that whilst we enjoy Jack Reacher stories (and will try another one) this was spoilt by the poor production quality. There was hardly a pause as the reader went from one story line to another making it confusing. There was a persistent hiss in the background and sound quality was poor. Couple this with a boring American drawl and you have poor production. And to cap it all off one of the story lines was left hanging by Lee Child. Damned annoying
I'm listening to The snow flower and the secret fan at the moment.
Certainly not
None, I'd just finish off what the hell happened to Chester Stone and his wife Maryline.
"Not what we expect from an all action hero"
Not sure, maybe
Too much "will they won't they" love interest and not enough action
Reasonable differentiation between characters
Certainly not - we couldn't finish this one
This is the third Jack Reacher audio we've listened to but we couldn't get past the first half. My wife and I both got really bored with his supposed love interest and gave up on it long before the half way point
usual quality for a Reacher story, though I found this one a little predictable, but maybe that was just my frame of mind.
"ok ish "
A bit obvious and lots of padding. Too much irrelevant details. Has written better books
"Fantastic story. Absolutely loved it."
I found it riveting. I enjoyed the way all the various pieces of the puzzle slowly came together. The pace was excellent..
"Good but not great"
The book was reasonable didn't get on with the narrator as well as the other books, I also guessed what the ending was going to be an that ruined it a little. The other books have been great though lee Childs is a good author
Great listen this was my second reacher outing started with first "killing floor" but then went out of sequence with this one but that's what is so good about lee childs creation you can pick up one any of them
"Terribly disapointing!"
Yes yes yes - they are amazing !!!!
Just awful voice - sorry! Really slow and dreary and oh, so irritating!I adore the Jack Reacher stories but simply had to give up on this one :(Have moved on to the next one. With the exception of Persuader which is read by Dick Hill who is a good narrator, all the rest of the Reacher stories are read by Jeff Harding. He reads brilliantly and by the time you have listened to two or three read by him, Jeff Harding is THE voice and no other will do! Thank goodness he has narrated all the rest!
Never got very far for reasons stated above
Nope! Please see above.
"A real page-turner"
I've only listened to a few, but it's a great story
It's as good as the other two Jack Reacher novels I've listened to
It's hard to say, and I don't want to spoil it for other readers,
Parts made me laugh and other parts meant I just had to keep listening.
Yes, one of the chapters turned up in the wrong place, about 2 hours 30 minutes before the end of the book. It was from earlier. Apart from that, it was great and well - read.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.

Picture of the day: Barmaids in Leicester in the early 1970s
Posted: March 07, 2014
|In April 1971, in a feature dripping with the casual sexism of the age, the Leicester Chronicle took itself off to the pubs of the city in search of a stereotype: the old-style barmaid.
Virtually every line the writer filed would be sufficient to generate a minor Twitter storm if they were published today.
"The buxom barmaid is banished," the paper announced, in a tone mixing Bernard Bresslaw and Terry-Thomas. "This was the discovery of the Leicester Chronicle when we went on safari through Leicester pubs, looking for the near mythical bird.
"The Jayne Mansfield-style barmaid is out of fashion, but the ladies who grace our bars are no less attractive.
"Today's ideal barmaid is "dolly" and practically professional even if she is only putting in the hours for extra pocket-money."
Have your toes curled yet? Oh they will, they will.
"In the Albert Hotel, Humberstone Road, we found several attractive lasses serving an admiring clientele with beer and cheer, coping with the rapid flow of orders.
"Customers were all experts on lovely ladies and one offered an explanation for the altered image. 'It was the introduction of the lounge bar and smart decor that finished the old-style barmaid'.
"The Bowling Green, Oxford Street, produced an all "dolly" staff. Says hot-panted Ann Powell: 'The old image was of a tarty girl, but now, barmaids are working girls, students and so on'.
"Says comrade-in-pants May Smyth: 'Customers are up to all sorts of tricks like asking for bottle beer on the bottom shelf so we have to bend, or getting us to reach up for glasses, so you can imagine the fuss when we wear midis instead of minis! We've compromised with hot pants for the time being and they're very popular'."
And so, gallingly, it continued, moving on to blithe, breezy reports of rampant bottom-pinching.
The Chronicle's conclusion? "It seems the barmaidery today is as demanding as such careers as modelling, acting or being a top-flight secretary.
"We did not find the old-style barmaid, but we're not complaining."
• Please address all righteous complaints to The Past, St George Street, Leicester.

Some slowness at times and overall good for 2009 not really for 2010 and not to mention 2010 and the need for more 3D power…
