Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. This book's concept was executed remarkably subtly for the time period in which it was written. The author seems more curious than ideological. Finding female authors in the science fiction genre can be a challenge (which is highly unfortunate since some of the best science fiction I've read has been by women) but for some reason it took me a while to actually pick up an Ursula Le Guin book despite how much I had heard about her. After reading this book, I kind of fell in love. I always appreciate those science fiction novels that also have something highly important to say about today's world. Despite the fact that the settings are in different times and often different planets, the parallels are still drawn and are often simultaneously enlightening and terrifying. The Left Hand of Darkness is no exception to this. Le Guin manages to both set up a whole new world in enough detail that we can really see this world as existing while at the same time making comparisons to the world we live in today. Not only do we see similarities between Winter (the planet in the novel) and Earth, but the differences are striking enough to raise questions about how our society works as well, especially on questions of gender identity. On Winter, everyone is male, until they reach a stage called 'kemmer' in which one partner basically grows the necessary parts in order to reproduce. Basically, they become female for the duration of 'kemmer' and pregnancy. This in itself was interesting, but what I found was the best part was how Genly, the envoy from Earth, reacted to this phenomenon. Not only was he fascinated at how differently sexuality played into this society than our own, but it also becomes evident that Genly has his own biases and stereotypes that he attached to the female sex, despite the fact that he is from our future (or at least that is assumed). Conversely, the Gethenians find his ideas of sex and sexuality strangely perverted and don't understand how he could possibly live his life in perpetual 'kemmer'. (Gethenians only feel sexual desire during 'kemmer' and it is often a cause of great stress.) Their ideas of monogamy are also quite different from our (American) societiy in that monogamous couples are quite rare and sometimes looked down on. Genly constantly struggles with navigating in a world so vastly different from his own not only in customs but in ideas of sexuality. This is a fairly constant theme throughout the book and it is fascinating how Le Guin's often subtle examinations of these differences can be so impactful. Overall, this book was not only a great look into a whole new imagined world, but an insightful and thought-provoking look into our own. I applaud Le Guin on this marvelous achievement and am looking forward to reading so much more of her work. Memorable Quotes "The only thing the makes life possible is permanent, intolerable uncertainty: not knowing what comes next." "He was after something surer, the sure, quick, and lasting way to make people into a nation: war. His ideas concerning it could not have been too precise, but they were quite sound. The only other means of mobilizing people rapidly and entirely is with a new religion; none was handy; he would make do with war." "He was a hard shrewd jovial politician, whose acts of kindness served his interest and whose interest was himself. His type is panhuman. I had met him on Earth, and on Hain and on Ollul. I expect to meet him in Hell." This is an interesting book. It seeks to explore the concept of a genderless society. One has to remember that it was published in 1969, a time when things were changing for women. It is described as a work of feminist science fiction but as a women reading it today it didn't feel as such. It is about a man who visits a planet of hermaphrodites who are mostly referred to using masculine pronouns. The lack of women in the book made it almost impossible for me to think of it as feminist. However at the time when it was published society was very different and the concepts being explored must have been controversial. The Gethenians, as neuters, are not a male dominated society and war is non-existent. Le Guin ponders the effects of gender on relationships, war, patriotism, raising children, sex and even suicide. I loved the way the book was structured as one story told by accounts of different characters interlaced with stories and legends of the different cultures of the planet. It was a creative yet efficient way of explaining and exploring the cultures of the planet and the motives behind the actions of the characters.I would definitely recommended this book. Genly Ai, an ambassador of sorts to the planet Winter (locally known as Gethen), has been assigned to entreat the country of Karhide to join an inter-galactic confederacy called the Ekumen. Winter is a frigid planet whose human(ish) inhabitants are neither male nor female, but whose bodies temporarily transform into one gender or the other only when in kemmer, the physical state in which mating is possible. After two years, he finally succeeds in gaining an audience with the king, but his offer is refused, and the king's primary advisor, Estraven, is banished from the kingdom as part of the debacle. With nothing left to pursue in the city, Genly travels first to a remote part of the country to question soothsayers about the future, and then to the neighboring country of Orgoreyn where, to his surprise, he again meets the estranged advisor Estraven. My tastes lean a bit more toward fantasy than science fiction, primarily because sci-fi that deals with spaceship technology and "star wars" scenarios are kind of a turn off, so although The Left Hand of Darkness had been on my to-read list for some time I was feeling a little skeptical when first cracking it open. Although Genly Ai arrives via spaceship (obviously), this story is more about his perceptions of and experiences on Winter. And although the Gethenians are technically aliens to some extent, they're human-like enough that the author doesn't go down the dreaded road of tentacles and fifth eyes. I particularly enjoyed the second half, which was more like a survival/adventure tale. This book was my first taste of Ursula K. Le Guin, and I will definitely pick up another. I've tried to read this several times over the years. While I loved her Earth Sea trilogy, [b:The Lathe of Heaven|59924|The Lathe of Heaven|Ursula K. Le Guin|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1386920883s/59924.jpg|425872] & several other books including 2 earlier ones in this series, I could never get into this one, so I decided to listen to it. Never loved it, barely got through it, still I gave it 3 stars because it finally gets around to making a decent story. Really it's more of a 2.5 star read, though. I think this is the correct edition, although I downloaded it from the library, it sounds like it was copied off old tapes. The reader doesn't do much for me. She has a fairly high voice which can be a bit grating & the quality of the recording wanders. It's not horrible, but certainly doesn't add anything to the story. I most often hear this book held out as one of the cornerstones of SF due to the sexual ambiguity of the civilization, but this point is lost among all the other factors LeGuin has tossed in. Too much is different about their world. It was a let down because of all the talk about how great it is. It's a pretty good SF novel, but more for all the different ideas, not because it made any of them particularly well save for those about true patriotism & love that transcends sex, even species. Both of these have been done well elsewhere in stories I liked reading better. The whole "humanity seeded by an elder race" bit wasn't handled as well as I would have liked. No other genetic modifications are mentioned for the other 83 worlds & yet she hints that the old race wasn't above it, but not why. That's probably because I'm reading this as a stand alone novel, but it is 4th in a series & it's been decades since I read any of the others. Not sure I ever read the first, but do recall liking the 2d & 3d. Unfortunately, the details are lost to me. -- Warning, possible spoilers below -- She does mention Winter's folks figured out evolution even though they obviously didn't evolve there. Not sure I buy that one. Given the trouble so many people have with it today, it makes them far too astute, but they also figured out the universe is expanding without much astronomical ability. The lack of herd animals, birds, or any flying insects is a huge difference. First, this has caused them not to attempt any sort of flight, not even balloons or rockets, which didn't sit all that well given their level of tech, especially when compared to them picking up on evolution. But this lack also makes a huge impact on their civilization since herding is one of the oldest skills that ours was built on. Meat is a far more efficient way to get calories than plants & herding takes far less energy than hunting. It's one of the early reasons tribes raided each other & fought over grazing lands. She doesn't mention this, but it's a good, if subtle, point. Their population is quite low. Part of this is explained by the harsh conditions of the world, but not fully. Their tech is high in both medicine & mechanics. While people seem to father up to a half dozen kids, they seem to only have one or two of their own, at least from the examples we're given. So this makes sense & helps explain the static nature of their civilization, since it removes population pressure from the reasons to war. The lack of war & this new tension leading to one doesn't make a great deal of sense to me. They have developed a council-ruled, totalitarian government in one place & a despotic monarchy bordering it. Both are similar to ours, yet they've never had a war developing them? I don't buy it, even though they are fairly well separated by natural obstacles. The psi powers are interesting, but haven't added anything to the story, IMO. More of a distraction. The much lauded ansible, at least in this book, is nothing more than a typewriter paired with another through a magical spell of simultaneity. It's reminiscent of Doc Smith's tech mixed with Voodoo. Again, perhaps this is due to where I'm coming into the series & high expectations. Of course, the heater/stove/light was pretty darn magical too, especially given their use of fireplaces. I didn't understand them in the cities at all.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0441478123, Mass Market Paperback)Genly Ai is an emissary from the human galaxy to Winter, a lost, stray world. His mission is to bring the planet back into the fold of an evolving galactic civilization, but to do so he must bridge the gulf between his own culture and prejudices and those that he encounters. On a planet where people are of no gender--or both--this is a broad gulf indeed. The inventiveness and delicacy with which Le Guin portrays her alien world are not only unusual and inspiring, they are fundamental to almost all decent science fiction that has been written since. In fact, reading Le Guin again may cause the eye to narrow somewhat disapprovingly at the younger generation: what new ground are they breaking that is not already explored here with greater skill and acumen? It cannot be said, however, that this is a rollicking good story. Le Guin takes a lot of time to explore her characters, the world of her creation, and the philosophical themes that arise.If there were a canon of classic science fiction, The Left Hand of Darkness would be included without debate. Certainly, no science fiction bookshelf may be said to be complete without it. But the real question: is it fun to read? It is science fiction of an earlier time, a time that has not worn particularly well in the genre. The Left Hand of Darkness was a groundbreaking book in 1969, a time when, like the rest of the arts, science fiction was awakening to new dimensions in both society and literature. But the first excursions out of the pulp tradition are sometimes difficult to reread with much enjoyment. Rereading The Left Hand of Darkness, decades after its publication, one feels that those who chose it for the Hugo and Nebula awards were right to do so, for it truly does stand out as one of the great books of that era. It is immensely rich in timeless wisdom and insight. The Left Hand of Darkness is science fiction for the thinking reader, and should be read attentively in order to properly savor the depth of insight and the subtleties of plot and character. It is one of those pleasures that requires a little investment at the beginning, but pays back tenfold with the joy of raw imagination that resonates through the subsequent 30 years of science fiction storytelling. Not only is the bookshelf incomplete without owning it, so is the reader without having read it. --L. Blunt Jackson (retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:33:58 -0400) A human emissary sent to the world of Winter to bring it into a galactic civilization must find a way to bridge the gulf between his outlook and that of the natives, who can change gender at will.

Phoenix Suns
Miami Heat's LeBron James puts on dunk display after practice in Phoenix
The Miami Heat practiced in Phoenix Monday in preparation for a matchup with the Suns Tuesday, and after they were done it was time for the LeBron James show.
Tickets were not required.
The 10-time All-Star, nine-time All-NBA team member, four-time league MVP, two-time NBA champion and three-time Olympic gold medalist threw down one impressive dunk after another, much to the delight of all who were in attendance.
Of course, it took some prodding from Heat coach Erik Spoelstra to get the attention on King James' dunkathon.
"Well you guys are missing a show, are you sure you want to interview me while this is going on," he asked.
Point taken.
"We had a great practice," James said when asked what prompted him to do it. "It just felt good."

Nike Mag Halloween Costume Replicas Officially Licensed by Universal Studios by Brendan Dunne 132 Comments
September 26, 2011 BY John Kim / 51
All 1,500 pairs of the Nike Mag 2011 have begun to appear on door-steps, and just last week we showed you the 'unboxing' experience of the Mag 2011 as well as the instruction booklet that accompanied with the shoes. We've already shown you Kanye West and Brian Wilson wear their pairs outdoors, but pint-sized sneaker fiend Franalations had put a video of the Nike Mag 2011 on feet, just to give you a look at how they appear when worn out in public. Of course, the shoes will definitely turn heads with the 'wow' factor alone, but no matter how cool the shoe really looks, only Michael J. Fox can really pull them off. Check out the full video below and let us know what you think, and if you're bummed that you missed out on a pair, remember that some pairs have been re-listed on eBay.

I may be moving to Raleigh NC in the near future for work purposes. What is the craft beer scene like? I was in Raleigh last week and had dinner at Natty Green's Brew Pub and watched the Giants/Niners game at the Bust Bee Cafe. I really like both places. I had tried all the seasonal beers at Natty Greens and really liked the Beligian IPA. My wife really enjoyed the Hef. Also enjoyed the habenaro infused smoked porter. Busy Bee had a good selection of beers and a pretty cool atmosphere. Didn't eat there (ate at a BBQ place called The Pit). I saw there is a homebrew club called the Carboy Club. Any memebers in this forum?
I went to a few Carboy meetings back in 2009...good club, I just don't have the time with classes and work to go. I think the beer scene in Raleigh is excellent. Check out Lonerider, Big Boss, etc. There are breweries in Durham, Winston-Salem, Chapel Hill, etc that are great. The brewing scene in the area has really taken off since I moved here in 2008. Natty Greens is newer and is one of my go to spots. Welcome to the Triangle!
Forgot to add, Boylan Bridge Brewpub is a great place to take someone if they're new to the area. Check it out, the views of downtown are really amazing and the food is alright. The beer, not so much. All their different styles taste exactly the same - same heavy yeast flavor. Cool place though.

If you dig songs with twang, Here's to Taking It Easy is as tuneful and affecting a set of them as you're likely to come across.
Here's to Taking It Easy is a great record, but I feel like Houck's best is still in him-- the one where the deep roots of tradition will finally be inextricably fused with his own weird, shambling soul.
It's a rootsy album that is delivered faithfully and respectfully, but one where the strong, clear voice of its author cuts through powerfully.
Houck can finally take it easy with the knowledge that he's made his best record. [Spring 2010, p.65]
Here's to Taking It Easy is a fine debut of sorts for Phosphorescent as a band. To Willie was the preamble to this, the band's new direction. And good as Houck was as a singer-songwriter, "band leader" is a role that suits him just as well.
Yet his voice still ambles all around the beat, and the production is calculatedly bleary, with horns, guitars and piano all entangled, as if two or three bands are playing the same song. Phosphorescent's perpetually woozy aesthetic is intact.
Forsaking subtly Southern melancholy in favor of jangling, twanging hillbilly heartbreak, Here's to Taking It Easy misplaces amplified country fever instead of channeling it.

I strongly believe that working for ECPR gave me the first-hand experience I needed to succeed in the public relations industry. The staff truly cared about giving the interns real work instead of "grunt work". Because of the projects I worked on, I was able to hone in on my writing and pitching skills, as well as get a good feel for local media.
I would encourage any young communications major to look strongly at ECPR for a hands on internship that will leave them with real-world experience.

oh great I'm self quoting myself after watching it. Flit why you. You appear to be a caring grand father but your already molding Kio to become the best pilot. Heck Kio was a natural x-rounder!!!! Though it looks like a teaching in disguise of being a good grandpa. kio leave in a great environment because he became a kind kid and unlike his twisted grandpa. And the hell VAGAN got gundam but here's the stupid clue. Asemu didn't die just went missing and vagan got a gundam oh great the war will indeed end on this era

it's just a big rifle but it doesn't look like it spins at all. Just super powered beam cannon at all and not riffle.
Maybe Mars was just at too apart for them to send troops. If they will be sending troops then they will also go to hibernation like what Vagan's do and they need base in between as stops or a relay station. Which with their development recently. They don't have that time or technology yet. Vagan still holds superior in terms of technology.

That was intense. Very fitting OP and ED songs for the final chapter.
Indeed, Kio is an X-rounder. Will he meet the moe vegan who is suggested to be using the Farsia? To the Ezelcant's credit, even after the purge, he still managed to smuggle and create UE cells ("barn hiding") ensuring the almost complete domination of the EFF in the critical early stages of the invasion. I wonder how many crew members are stationed at the Big Ring that welcomed the noble vegan party. Plus the initial EFF and civilians casualties on earth on this final vegan "dialogue". The new Clanche/Clamche units seems very capable and had a better debut than the Adele. On the other hand, the dragon vegan impression was soured by that smashing-the-building scene.

Intra-space technology might not have been advanced enough to warrant a successful full-scale invasion of Mars. I mean the same cannot be said for the Vagans, because they made their stronghold in space and after decades of meticulous planning they would have planted enough resource stations in space to provide ammunition for their invasion of Earth. It doesn't seem like uprooting the Federation in its entirety worked in eradicating that sense of complacency among the Feddie ranks. Civilians are to be evacuated, yes that's very clear Mr. Feddie officer. But they are kids and without Kio they would still be stuck on the debris, mind showing some urgency and compassion? And this also brings up the question: how come with the corrupt bloc purged, the Vagans were able to not only retain but worse, consolidate their grip on Earth's soil? Interestingly, Flit's retirement from the Feddies might have been because he became disillusioned with them. So he found more time with his family and to guide Kio's growth.

Thing is vagan and earthlings are the same in appearance, so it isn't difficult to sneak people to earth or into civilian positions, but into the federation or government is probably a bit more difficult, after the clean up. |

Sometimes it's hard not to secretly root for Flit to wipe out the Vagans when the Vagans keeps declaring war by indiscriminately murdering civilians EVERY SINGLE TIME.
So I guess instead of a Judo Kio is more like Usso, I just hope he's got better luck than Usso.....

Perhaps the most impressive 1st episode of all 3 arcs.( 1st arc 1st episode was very good as well though). OP & ED are awesome. Clanche looks awesome, i guess Gen 3 has the most awesome looking EFF grunt suits. Initially i was worried about Kio's appearance ; he looks too innocent and normal looking. But i found a liking to him in this episode, i guess i liked his laid back attitude.
EDIT: I'm surprised its gundam vs Zeheart this early in a new arc. I guess the director really wants to make things really intense. Ghiraga looks awesome as well, though i'm surprised by its choice of weapons, maybe it will have a beam rifle in the future.

Anyway, great start - somehow this seems like the kind of atmosphere the show should have achieved since the beginning, much flashier and kid-friendly, and chances for tons of drama. AGE-3 does not disappoint. Its like a more agile version of Gundam ZZ with much better weapons. And the way they animate it was very super-robot like.

After watching the episode, this further reaffirms the fact that the third opening song is my favorite so far. I also think that the Age 3 has the most impressive debut of the three Gundams (the way it lifts the Defurse into the sky just show how much raw strength it has.)

I worked with a guy who was a MP in the latter part of Vietnam. He almost cried laughing about some new South Vietnamese soldiers training with a "thump gun". Apparently one of them was holding a loaded "thump gun" pointed straight up, while watching a demonstration of how to use it when he accidentally fired the weapon, straight up. My former coworker apparently felt the mad dashes for cover by everyone at the range were pretty comical, at least from a distance.

Read storyIs it possible to delay cord clamping and still collect cord blood? The answer is yes. The recommended time for delaying cord clamping given by the World Health Organization is 1-3 minutes. Even if clamping is delayed by 3 minutes, there will still be plenty of blood remaining in the placenta and umbilical cord to collect.

tyler — I read this joke from a Fox News report today.
A comedic definition of bureaucracy goes like this: You have two cows. The government takes them both. They kill one cow. They milk the other, then pour the milk down the drain.
Funny huh?
This same thing has happened in the deep south.
I'll have to give you the condensed version.
Last spring there were killer tornadoes in Alabama, Mississippi and Georgia.
Schools were knocked down. Portable trailers for class rooms has to be brought in. Officials worried about what if they had more tornadoes and the kids were in portable buildings.
So, to its credit, the Federal Emergency Management Agency stepped in and paid 75 percent of the cost (using taxpayer dollars) of a hardened storm shelter on school property so students would have a safe place to go should a tornado take aim.
The school districts paid the rest.
The tornado shelters are considered "temporary." Federal law says when the schools are repaired, the storm shelters had to go. Or the schools can buy them.
Well, all of the schools are strapped for cash and can't afford to pay the rest of the money for the shelters.
They don't know how they could dismantle and move shelters that have been built as permanent structures tough enough to handle 250 mph winds.
So now, FEMA will tear down perfectly good storm shelters.
Don't believe me? Google FEMA tears down storm shelters.
That's my point of view, what's yours?

Charlotte apartments – Fashion trends in design of the bathroom
Posted on According to professional designers, to have a modern bathroom you should consider a number of things. The best Charlotte apartments for me and my friends provide all the necessary conditions for this.Modern bathroom should look both luxurious and simple. It can combine the different ideas, colors and configurations. The basic principle is it to be as functional and comfortable as possible. It is not necessary for the interior style of the bathroom to be in harmony with other rooms in the apartment. Minimalism is a leading style and is often used. The furniture is limited to the necessary items only to create a feeling of spaciousness and freedom. The bathroom will look unique if you combine properly the fashion trends with your own preferences. All colors in the neutral range are suitable. The sand shades never go out of fashion. Very often it is preferred to go with the combination of black and white. Of course, some bright color accents are allowed as well. Usually everything is retracted behind the doors of the bathroom cabinet. A good idea is to use a round, fluffy rug to the sink and multifunctional stand for the towels. Also you can use elements from the spa interior as scented candles. When selecting bathroom tiles, it?s good to pay attention to the color, size and shape. Instead of selecting one color tiles for every room, you can choose several shades that complement each other. You can create different combinations with them. The bathroom is a small space, but on the other hand is very important, because it gives a necessary relaxing environment. You could not go wrong, choosing interesting and unusual color pattern tiles. The wall tiles can be of different size or placed diagonally. One interesting idea is to make an original combination, adding small pieces of other materials – shells or imitation gems. Another suitable decoration item is transparent bowl full with pebbles. White ceramic, glass and tiles are the main materials used for the furniture of the modern bathroom. The presence of tub becomes increasingly relevant as a trend. But it is important that it should be a separate shelf at one end of the room to heighten the sense of privacy and serenity. Bathroom accessories must be aligned with the color of the room. Most of them are of silver and gold shade. Their appropriate use provides a stylish look to the space. The glass is also a preferred material in the bath interior. The mirror is a mandatory element in the design. Above all, it is good to have some source of light. If the bathroom is with square shape, the mirror must be positioned vertically on the wall. It is important to determine the height at which it is put. This largely depends on the overall appearance of the bathroom. In modern architecture bathroom is positioned adjacent to the bedroom. Another interesting feature is the presence of the window, and sometimes even the whole wall is turned into a window. Posted in Fashion Trends
Feng Shui tips for balancing energy in the apartment
Posted on The harmony and proper circulation of positive energy in the home is very important. The best Charlotte apartments for me and my friends suggest a great opportunity to create a pleasant living space. Feng Shui concept is based around the arrangement of different objects in the space in a proper manner. This will attract wealth, harmony, romance, professional success as well as wisdom at home and in the life. Placement of the objects must not be randomly done. There is a precise scheme, which takes balance between five natural elements into account – water, wood, fire, earth and metal. The water could be presented by ornamental fountains and aquariums. It is the symbol of professional success and wealth. The tree is represented through living plants which grow. It is stimulates personal development and creative thinking. The earth could be presented by pottery or stone and is a stable force which gives a feeling of security. The fire is regarded as most powerful element amongst all elements of Feng Shui. Represented through the red color, the candles and fireplace, it?s a symbol of passion. The metal attracts the energy. Furthermore, it helps for the concentration and motivation. According to the Feng Shui concept every room in the apartment should have a unique appearance and needs to be arranged in a way that it gives you a feeling of comfort. Each item should have an appropriate location, and any flaws of your room must be compensated. The corridor is the entrance of the positive energy. This is the first thing people see when they come in your home and the first room that you enter when you return. If you want a mirror in the hallway ensure to turn it to the inside of the apartment, so that positive energy is not lost when the door is opened. According to the Chinese tradition, bedroom is most important of all room in the home. It?s considered to be the energy source for the members of the family. The bed must be solid and placed next to the wall rather than towards door of the room. The room needs to be with relaxing atmosphere, favorable to rest. The presence of electrical items can interrupt the energy cycle and will have a destroying effect on quality of the sleep. Brown, metallic shades and black have that calming effect. At the walls you could place different pictures and photographs. The living room should always look welcoming and warm. Let the soft furnishings and chairs to face the room?s entrance. Family photos at one of the walls will maintain the harmony. Correct solution is for the living room is an aquarium or a decorative fountain placed in one corner. Thus energy will be in motion on a constant basis. Most suited for this area, according to the Feng Shui concept, are soft and neutral colors. Cotton cushions or small velvet will bring a comfort. Posted in Tips for BalancingWhat it takes to decorate your new apartment?
Posted on Finding the best Charlotte apartments for me and my friends is one thing and decorating it is another. Having done with finding the best apartment for you, it?s now time for you to take some steps to give it a presentable look. People often find it hard and daunting to decorate their apartment to make it look presentable. Here are some things that you need to consider when you are decorating your apartment to give it a homey feel. Most importantly you should give proper attention to the scale. Apartments are usually small and you don?t have to deal with huge floor-through having fabulous views that can be enjoyed from each room. So you need to be cautious about the size of the furniture item and make sure that they are appropriate according to size of the rooms of your apartment. In case there is not much space in your living room, you should not be wasting your money on buying a huge TV screen which eats up most of available space. There is no point in investing some overstuffed, oversized ottoman and chair which can take up all the space and there is no space left for something else to be placed in the room. Instead, the small rooms can better be furnished with a couple of small leather-covered or upholstered furniture pieces and you can also think about contemporary chrome chairs or the traditional plain wood ones. You can also find sofas in different sizes and shapes nowadays and hence you shouldn?t overlook the armless version creating an illusion of the open space. You can even think about the ones with slight curves for lending shape for boxy apartment. The door dimensions should always be measured for making sure that all the furniture well fits in. Another thing to keep in mind is the size of elevator of the building. It is often tempting for people to browse through upscale shops and they end up with empty pockets just after a single purchase and the apartment stays empty for them. It is, however, a better idea to consider the antique malls, junk shops, flea markets and church bazaars. They can turn out to be the gold mines that are often treasure loaded especially for first-time decorators. Even only 500 dollars can worth a million when you are shopping at the flea markets. Mostly you can easily find unique stuff that can fill in a complete room for you. There are large number of home furnishings shops which can prove to be quite helpful for you in getting the most suitable items for your apartment without breaking your budget. Different accessories can be bought at these stores and can mostly be found in wonderful condition. All you need to do is to make a search and get to a store that provides you with all that you need. Posted in What it TakesHow you can decorate your first apartment
Posted on If you have already found the best Charlotte apartments for me and my friends, the next step would be to decorating your apartment. It can prove to be overwhelming and baffling at times to decorate an apartment for the very first time. The apartments are usually small, architecturally deprived and sterile. However, they can be transformed into something unique and personal with a little effort. If you are decorating for the first time, just don?t get confused at all and enjoy this adventure. Here are some of the important things that you need to do for transforming your apartment into something you can call home and which reflects your true personality. First of all a view point is necessary to be developed. The trick lies in creating a put-together, cohesive apartment by deciding the kind of appearance you want to give it. You can watch the shows on home decoration and can get different ideas from the magazines and it will be helpful in determining the style you want in your apartment like country French, modern and sleek, traditional, rustic, etc. As soon as you have found the preference of yours, it is necessary for you to stick to that theme for all the rooms. If there is same style applied to all the rooms then it can give you rhythm and flow giving balance and harmony to your interior. However, it should be kept in mind that it?s not some movie set that you are decorating and all the details should not really have to match perfectly. Using old accessories can provide some sort of personality to your place and can deliver reflection of the person living in the apartment, i.e. you. Make sure that you do not create a ?circus? like atmosphere through the integration of so many different styles, patterns and colors. If you carry your view point all through your space then it will allow the area to look larger as well. Next thing you can do is to select the color scheme for you. Selecting 3-4 colors, that are your favorites, can simply do it for you and you can use these colors throughout the apartment. If fabrics and objects are used wildly in all the rooms, you will end up making the space look choppy, visually distracting and broken up. If white and blue are your favorites then you can think about creating your living room which features walls in white, furniture with ivory slipcovers, white and blue porcelain accents and the shelves and tables in light-wood. Deeper blue can be used in the bedroom and you can use more of this through patterned bedspread, curtains and pillows. The theme can be given to your kitchen as well with the use of white and blue checked curtains and making yellow to be your accent color in the kitchen.

How knowing your best performance in Chinese can help you improve
By Olle Linge On December 26, 2014 · Leave a Comment · In Advanced, Attitude and mentality, Beginner, Intermediate, Listening, Reading, Speaking, Writing
When learning Chinese, it's important to know how good your best performance is, because this determines the way you study. If your best performance is good enough, you mostly need high-volume practice, more of the same will get you there. But if your best performance isn't good enough, you need to change tactics and go for high-quality practice instead.
Learning how to ask for and receive directions in Chinese
By Olle Linge On November 5, 2014 · 9 Comments · In Beginner, Immersion and integration, Intermediate, Learning outside class, Listening, Speaking
Asking for and receiving directions in Chinese might look very easy, it's usually in the first part of a textbook series after all, but most students go through that chapter without actually learning the content. In this article, I discuss how to really learn this skill.
This is the last day of the extensive listening challenge that was started three weeks ago. It was the first official challenge on Hacking Chinese Challenges. In total, 138 people joined the challenge and listened to a total of 890 hours of audio. What did you think about the challenge?
This week's extensive listening challenge has been going for two weeks, but there's still time left to improve your listening ability. In this post, I share some thoughts about my own challenge and Hacking Chinese Challenges in general. I would also like to hear what you think!
This article lists the ten most popular free listening resource collections currently available on Hacking Chinese Resources. It's a great list containing most of my favourite listening sources! Each resource comes with a brief introduction as well as notes for which level it is appropriate. This list is for learners of all levels!
It's time for an extensive listening challenge! Enrol, set your goal and listen as much as you can before the end of October. This article contains more information about the challenge, some important things to keep in mind as well as some suggestions for what to listen to.
Change your attitude to enjoy life and learn more Chinese
By Olle Linge On September 16, 2014 · 3 Comments · In Advanced, Attitude and mentality, Beginner, Immersion and integration, Intermediate, Listening
Attitude is one of the key factors when learning a language as well as for life in general. This article is about how a change of perspective can turn negative situations into learning opportunities and become a happier person overall.
It's tempting to focus mostly on speaking when learning a foreign language. There's nothing wrong with speaking from day one, but you shouldn't allow that to overshadow your listening practice too much. Listening (and reading) accelerates your learning in a way that speaking (and writing) does not.

How and why to watch the world cup in Chinese
By Olle Linge On June 16, 2014 · 12 Comments · In Advanced, Beginner, Immersion and integration, Listening
If you're going to watch the world cup, do it in Chinese! Watching sports is an awesome way of learning a language, almost regardless of which level you're at. As a beginner, you can follow what's going on even if you don't understand much. At higher levels, you can pick up a lot of vocabulary and phrases while enjoying the game!
