"good for Stones fans"
It was fascinating! If you have always loved The Rolling Stones and rock and roll and have a lot of nostalgia about the 60's... then I think you'd find Keith Richards memoir fascinating, too. It is long, but most of the time, well, I was just blown away hearing about all the stuff Keith Richards did. He has a great conversational style; listening was fun - kind of like sitting in the living room hearing him tell about his life (with help from Johnny Depp and one other reader.) What really shines through is his absolute love of music as well as his totally undisciplined and wild, wild life style. I liked it toward the end when he tells about how Tony Blair wrote him a get well letter (after an accident) and said, "Dear Keith, You've always been one of my heroes..." Then Keith says, "England's in the hands of someone I'm the hero of? That's frightening." I also liked the ending when he sits on the end of his dying mom's bed and plays Malaguena for her. That was one of the first songs he learned at the beginning of the book, so it seemed to be a good frame for the ending... and kind of touching.
"Caught Between Genres"
I have to admire the detailed research that went in to writing Behind the Beautiful Forevers. Katherine Boo shadowed so many people in the Annawadi slum of Mumbai for THREE YEARS. She does an amazing job of portraying their lives in all of their complexity. Her research didn't end there, either. She evidently did much more intense document research as well. Her whole career has been spent examining disadvantaged communities in America and now India. She really opens up the eyes of the reader to what daily life is like and what the major issues are in Annawadi. Her website give a great overall look at how the book was written; I wish I had checked out the site before reading the book, actually. I think it deepened my appreciation for the task she undertook.
What I came away with is the sense that in the Annawadi slums, as in all or most of India it seems, corruption is practically bred into people's lives. For the poorest people who live in these slums, a corrupt life is the only way most of them can eek out a means of survival. The majority of these people don't even feel bothered by their own total lack of ethics and morals; they are too poor and too overwhelmed with trying to simply survive. The widespread corruption gives the people a sense that they have lost control over their lives. The ground is always shifting under them due to the forces of corruption everywhere.
The problem with the book for me is that it seems caught between two genres, creative non-fiction and the novel. I thought it would have been more interesting if Boo had just simply written a novel about the main characters in the book. Plenty of the factual info about their lives could have come across this way. As it was, the non-fiction tone and structure of the book got in the way of any enjoyment for me in the reading of it. It read like a catalogue of horrors and stories of corruption without enough glue to hold them together. Just when I finally learned the names of those that would become the main characters, the author would go off on a tangent to describe other characters and issues. The names became too many and after a while I didn't really care. Luckily, the main characters finally came back into focus and the story carried on for a while, only to be derailed with more tangents which could illustrate more of the horrible issues going on in the Annawadi slums.
So, my review is based on my enjoyment of the book, which was almost non-existent at most points. If I were to rate it based on value and importance of the message, then I'd give it a top rating.
The opening of the book was lush and held out much promise for an engrossing southern novel. However, the characters and the story didn't live up to this beginning. I did enjoy the descriptions of a "living" plantation, Belle Vie, in this day and age. That part was fascinating. The main character, Caren, however, seemed unlikeable and I just didn't care much about her. She makes some really stupid decisions. The relationship she has with her ex –husband just doesn't ring true to me. In fact, all her relationships seem washed out or bland.
In the end, the solution to the mystery just seems to pop up out of nowhere. Or did I miss something?
Overall, I was underwhelmed.
"All the Right Elements"
This book had all the right elements for a great read: it was a good story that had many levels, the writing was good, there were lessons about history, as well as philosophical or ethical questions to ponder.
I loved the way there were 3 different stories going on at once. First there is the story of Sage and her struggle with how to interact with Joseph Weber and her meeting Leo. Then there is Minka's story of the Upior, based on an old Polish fairy tale. This was interesting as a parallel and a metaphor for many of the actions and horrors that occurred in the book. The third and, to me, the most dramatic story was that of Minka herself and her path into and finally out of two different German concentration camps. The author very skillfully weaves these 3 story lines together in such a way that each story line adds to and helps to develop the other.
Spoiler alert here: I had trouble putting the book down! If I have any criticism, it's with the ending. I'm not sure that the big switch in the character of Joseph Weber at the end was necessary or very well explained. Also, the idea that Sage pulls off her final act but seems to have no intention of sharing it or talking about it with Leo seems unrealistic. OR perhaps I'm unconvinced that she really could or would pull off this final decision. I feel like this final section was, perhaps, rushed or underdeveloped in relation to all that had come before. However, this didn't spoil my enjoyment of the book overall.
I highly recommend it.
"Doesn't live up to the reviews"
This book didn't live up to all of its 4 and 5 star reviews. Although the story of the orphan trains itself is interesting, I found the book to be stereotyped and shallow.
One example is the foster mother of Molly. The author threw in so many stereotypes which she obviously found to be "evil" but which don't necessarily ring true to me as definitive markers of an evil person: she listens to conservative talk radio, she is NOT a vegetarian, she has an anti-abortion bumper sticker, etc etc. SO, the author is definitely prejudiced against conservatives, BUT I think there could have been a more skillful way to portray a person who is supposed to be as judgmental and uncaring as the foster mom. This author took a short cut, but it didn't work.
The book seemed like it should be categorized as a young adult novel. It was too oversimplified and moralistic for me. The ending packs a big emotional wallop, and did make me cry. I believe that is why it ended up getting such good reviews. As a whole, it is really not worth it.
"I like spending time with Harry B."
I thoroughly enjoyed Trunk Music and would have given it my highest rating EXCEPT that the ending seemed so contrived and phony that I had to knock it down just a little. It seemed just wrong to have Victoria Aliso blurt out as she died to, "… save my daughter." What daughter? That's the first we hear of it. And really? Her daughter turns out to be Layla, the Las Vegas dancer that Victoria's HUSBAND is having an affair with? As if that weren't enough, THEN Bosch and Eleanor run across Layla when they leave L.A. and Vegas and begin their honeymoon in Hawaii on the very last page. That coincidence seems just way too contrived. If there had been a plot of some dimension about Victoria, Layla, and their histories, then fine. However, to just throw these two facts in at the very end does NOT work to make the book and the plot seem believable.
Other than that, I found the book very readable and compelling, as with most of the Harry Bosch books. I'll keep on reading about Harry Bosch. I wondered about the title "Trunk Music," and found what it means: "...a wise guy saying outta Chicago.. when they whack some poor slob they say, "Oh, Tony Don't worry about Tony. He's trunk music now. You won't see him no more. "
A very engrossing book! It's a really good story, but the build up is a bit too long. I like the way the reader has a lot of sympathy for Werner. He is basically trapped his whole life, but he undergoes a transformation that is extremely heartwarming at the end, and the build up here makes the extra length of the book worthwhile.
It seemed like the author is trying to show the reader how it feels to be blind, like the main character, young Marie Laure. This is admirable, however, I found all the minute descriptions from the mind of the blind girl to be too detailed. It was hard for me to appreciate them. Just like I didn't enjoy reading a book where the narrator supposedly had Asperger syndrome, I didn't really like seeing the world through the eyes of Marie Laure.
Also, the chapters skip around chronologically, which I found somewhat disorienting, since I was listening to the book. This technique is a good one, but at some points it seemed to be over-used.
I was fascinated by this book. Setting is big; it swept me away to another world, the world of New Guinea in the 1930's. It wasn't until after I finished reading Euphoria that I found out it was based on the life of Margaret Mead. (Ok, DUH :) As I was reading, I kept thinking that there had to be a real person like this. Sometimes an author's research just comes through or seems obvious, and then the reader can tell that there WAS someone who did it like this. The same thing happened in "The Invention of Wings." As I read along and saw so many specifics about various characters, I figured that it must be about someone REAL. (That was another DUH, since it's on the back of the book! Hey, I listened to both of them :)
Now that I read that Euphoria is based on Margaret Mead and a particular time in her life, I want to know more. There really was a love triangle (according to a review I read – see below) ! How juicy and exciting, AND it was exciting in the book, too. The author did such a good job of building up all the tension and revealing the facts of the situation slowly and in a somewhat mysterious way. I loved that about the book. The last 1/3 or so of it was the most exciting as all the pieces fell in to place. The ending obviously veers off from the life of Margaret Mead; I'd like to find out in what other areas the fictional character is different.
"Eye Opening!"
Wow! I think Scientology has to be one of the most messed up, horrible organizations I've ever heard of. I won't call it a religion; that would be a sham. The book was fascinating in that it opened my eyes to the reality and the inner workings of Scientology. At the same time, it was pretty boring in its details and the reality which seemed to go on and on. I've heard some bad things about Scientology, BUT now my eyes have been opened to the extent of the rottenness.
As I was reading about the constant "auditing" (questioning sessions with an e-meter designed to elicit a certain result from the person being audited) and "sec-checks"(confessional given on an e-meter) , it made me think of North Korea in Orphan Master's Son! Seriously, that is how BAD it was. Well, they didn't hook the person up to a pain machine, BUT they did use constant belittling, questioning, humiliating, separation, isolation, and on and on to elicit the response they wanted. I also feel like this girl's parents were partly to blame for allowing her to be taken from them and to be separated from them and sucked into this horror. Of course, she was/is from a 3rd generation Scientology family, so they were ALL brainwashed, I guess.
The book talks about how the celebrity Scientologists are treated differently, and the world never sees that horrible stuff that goes on in the background. The hypocrisy of Scientology is stunning in its breadth and depth.
I've got to give this girl credit for getting out and exposing all this to the world.
"Room for Miracles"
I loved reading this book! It appealed to me because of its compelling plot, but I also appreciated the spiritual aspects of the book. It took a look at how science and a love of the natural world interact with the aspects of life that can't be explained scientifically, such as kindness, compassion, altruism, and self-sacrifice. Several of the characters in the book believe, "There is a supreme intelligence in the world that longs for a union with us and that nothing short of a divine being could have created the human mind." The name of the book relates to this theme. "The Signature of All Things" means basically that "all the natural world is a divine code, containing proof of our Creator's love." This is why so many medicinal plants, according to this theory, resemble the diseases they were meant to cure, or the organs they were able to treat. For example, walnuts, shaped like brains, were supposed to be helpful for headaches. At one point Ambrose put it like this:
"…and yet Boehme said that God had PRESSED Himself into the world, and had left markers there for us to discover."
The book is an exploration, through the life story of Alma Whittaker , of scientific values that still leave a sliver of room for miracles.
I loved the sex parts, too ☺ That binding closet was a kick! And the scene with Tomorrow Morning was great!
"Reaching His Stride"
Yes! With this #3 book in the Harry Hole series, Jo Nesbo has reached his stride and has written a tense and exciting thriller/crime novel. I particularly liked this book because the reader gets to see how Harry Hole meets Raquel (the woman he is so in love with in later books) and find out Raquel's "interesting" background. Having started with some of the later Harry Hole books, I was disappointed when I went back to the beginning with the #1 and #2 books (The Bat and The Cockroaches), but having enjoyed this book so much, I'm now ready to continue on to #4, Nemesis.

Petkovic's Winning Comeback, No.1 Next
STUTTGART, Germany - After more than three months out of the game due to a low back injury, German No.1 Andrea Petkovic made a winning return to the WTA during Tuesday's night session at the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix.
Petkovic went into the Australian season as the No.10 player in the world, but a stress fracture in her back caused her withdrawal from the Australian Open and subsequent pull-outs from Paris, Doha, Dubai, Indian Wells and Miami. The absence didn't hurt her ranking too much - she is now No.12 - but could coming back at such a stacked Premier-level tournament be too much?
"It has always been my goal to compete at the top level," Petkovic said. "I always told myself, if you're not good enough to compete with the best, don't play tennis at all. So when I was planning on coming back I was conscious of coming back here, where all the Top 8 are playing, and I'm not seeded so I could play any of them in the first round. I believe to throw somebody into the cold water is better than dipping and seeing how cold it might get."
Having played two matches in Fed Cup over the weekend - losing in singles but winning in doubles - Petkovic made a winning return to WTA-level competition in Stuttgart, beating fellow German Kristina Barrois first round, 61 64.
"I'm actually surprised it went so well today," Petkovic said. "It was a tough challenge playing Stosur in Fed Cup on the weekend, playing the No.5 player in the world right after three and a half months off. I was in my rhythm tonight and played quite solid. I was very stable emotionally and mentally out there."
The level will step up in a big way for Petkovic in the next match, as she faces top-ranked, top-seeded Victoria Azarenka in the second round. Azarenka beat Petkovic in their only previous meeting, which was back in 2010.
"I didn't watch a lot of tennis while I was out but I saw her winning streak and rise to No.1," Petkovic said. "I really think she's the best right now. She deserves to be No.1, and as a character and personality she's a proper No.1.
"It's a tough challenge, but as I said, this is why I play tennis."

Getting Hands On Experience While Serving the Tanzanian Community
I studied abroad in Africa during the summer of 2014. My program took place in Arusha, Tanzania for nine weeks and was a community service based program through the Global Service Corps, which was offered at SUNY Albany for nine credits, and consisted of HIV/AIDS prevention and nutrition education along with agricultural sustainability education. My decision to do a study abroad program became definite after I spoke with a friend who was also doing a study abroad program in Brazil for the summer as well. I knew this program fit me well being that it wasn't a typical study abroad where you would learn material in a classroom, like we do here in America, but rather a more hands on experience where you would actually help people in the community while at the same time be able to experience the culture first hand. After committing to the program, I already knew that my only regret was not deciding to do it sooner so that I could have done it for a full semester rather than nine weeks, which is still my only regret to this day. >>

Frank Le, a senior at the University at Albany, decided to study abroad in Japan at Kansai Gaidi University in the spring of 2013.

Erica Miller- In My Own Words
Universidad del Salvador (USAL), Buenos Aires, Argentina
I studied abroad at the Universidad del Salvador in Buenos Aires, Argentina during the 2012-2013 academic year. As a Spanish major, I went hoping to improve my fluency in Spanish, but in the end, I got so much more out of it. I found myself in an amazing, colorful, chaotic city that never ceased to fascinate me, even after being there for almost a year. Buenos Aires is a blend of Europe and South America and the whole country is a place rich in history and culture. It is a place that is politically charged, caught between a recent turbulent past and their future. I was inspired by how passionate and involved all young people were in politics and government. Through my classes, talking with friends, witnessing strikes and protests over government, economics and class struggle, I learned to really educate myself on current events and politics, and formed my own political opinions, things that we don't always encourage young people to do in the US. >>

Emmerline Francesca Nelson - In My Own Words
United States International University, Kenya, Africa
I studied abroad in the beautiful city of Nairobi, Kenya located in East Africa in the spring of 2013. I have always desired to study abroad but I believed that I lacked funding to do so. However, I put all of my doubts and negative thoughts aside and decided to visit the study abroad fair during the Fall semester of 2012. I learned about KEI (Knowledge Exchange Institute) in partnership with SUNY Albany's study abroad program offered at the United States International University (USIU) in Nairobi, Kenya. At that moment I promised myself that I would do anything in my power to participate in the program. Although I became excited and eager after being accepted into the program, on the plane I became sad and felt alone. It hit me that I would be living in a foreign country without any family or friends for three months. I was scared. However, upon arrival I realized that I was not alone. >>

Smiley Rojas-Nunez - In My Own Words
Spanish Language & Chilean Culture at ECELA, Santiago, Chile
Warm weather, blue skies and the bright shining sun. This is not the scenery I am used to seeing on December 30th, but this is the beautiful sight I was able to see when I touched down in Santiago, Chile for my study abroad trip this past wintersession. After getting to know the other students who were traveling abroad with me at the airport, we all loaded up into a taxi and then I was dropped off at my host family's house. Coming from living in a dorm, it was strange to be in such a beautiful home, and it took a while to get used to the fact that that's where I would be living for the next three weeks. I was first greeted by the father of the house, who took the time to explain to me what life was like in Chile. He could speak both English and Spanish, but as a native Spanish speaker, I was ready and willing to improve my Spanish. >>

HP Labs looking for a few good university researchers
The R&D arm of Hewlett-Packard lays out a new plan for its research projects.
Following its massive overhaul earlier this year, HP Labs will begin a more formal and focused program doing collaborative research with universities.
Beginning Wednesday, the research and development arm of Hewlett-Packard will begin accepting proposals from university researchers anywhere in the world.
Proposals will be accepted until mid-June, then judged and awarded in the fall. The winners will receive a grant ranging from $50,000 to $75,000, which is enough for each professor who wins to hire at least one graduate student, according to HP's Office of Open Innovation.
"In the past, we did a lot of collaboration with universities, but it didn't have the same kind of sharp focus," said Rich Friedrich, director of HP's Open Innovation Office.
The new focus at HP Labs, announced in March , is aligned around a smaller number of subset "labs" and five main areas of research, including information management, cloud computing, transforming analog content to digital, intelligent infrastructures, and sustainability.

What is Oxytocin?
Oxytocin is a hormone produced mainly by the hypothalamus (an almond sized region of the brain) and is released either directly into the blood via the pituitary gland, or to other parts of the brain and spinal cord. Best known for its role in childbirth, oxytocin plays a vital role in triggering uterine contractions. Many times if contractions are not powerful enough to complete delivery the mother will be give oxytocin to help the labor process and contractions.
Oxytocin – A real love drug
Oxytocin can be prescribed to help treat Female Orgasmic Disorder, Female Arousal Disorder or for those women who just desire a more powerful or multiple orgasms.
Recent research has shown that oxytocin may have many other far-reaching effects particularly when it comes to relationships and emotional involvement. Oxytocin is the reason why we form all sorts of deep connections not only with our children, but with our partners, friends and even our pets and is often called the "bonding hormone". Oxytocin also plays a huge role in the non-procreative aspects of sex.
Research has shown that for women, not only is oxytocin released during orgasm, it appears to be responsible for causing orgasms in the first place. Research indicates that oxytocin causes the nerves in the genitals to fire spontaneously, and this leads to powerful orgasms. In women, during orgasm, oxytocin levels become stratospheric. During peak sexual arousal, if a woman's brain is flooded with oxytocin, she may indeed be capable of multiple orgasms.
Sometimes called "the cuddle hormone", oxytocin is released in response to a variety of environmental stimuli including skin-to-skin contact and cervical stimulation experienced during sex. At normal levels oxytocin encourages a mild desire to be kissed and cuddled by your lover. Being touched (anywhere on the body) leads to a rise in oxytocin levels. This causes a cascade of reactions within the body, including the release of endorphins which results in both biological and psychological arousal.
The nerves in erogenous zones such as the earlobes, neck and genitals become sensitized by the effects ofoxytocin. It promotes a bond of intimacy, closeness and desire which increases sexual receptiveness and the desire to be touched further – being touched further causes even more oxytocin to be released and so desire and arousal is heightened even more. Given its ability to generate deep and profound emotional connections, and its ability to fuel feelings of sexual intimacy and desire culminating in powerful orgasms, oxytocin really is the nearest thing to a love drug.
Oxytocin for Postpartum Depression
A new study has shown pregnant women who have lower levels of the hormone Oxytocin, may be at greater risk to develop postpartum depression. Oxytocin has been called the "cuddle hormone" or "hormone of love" for its ability to foster feelings of bonding and also to produce more frequent , powerful orgasms in women.
Oxytocin has also been linked to parenting behaviors.The new study, performed by researchers at the University of Basel in Switzerland, explores the relationship between oxytocin levels during pregnancy and postpartum depression, which effects as many as 20% of women. Gunther Meinlschmidt, PhD, was the lead researcher on this study at the University.
The study measured the oxytocin levels of 73 healthy, pregnant women, during the third trimester of pregnancy. The women were given written tests during pregnancy and again, two weeks after giving birth, to determine their risk of postpartum depression. Based on their test scores, 14 women were found to be at risk of postpartum depression. Lower oxytocin levels prior to giving birth were also associated with the 14 women.
While this study is very new, it may be a breakthrough in treating postpartum depression. Oxytocin nasal spray, such as Vitocin may help relieve some symptoms of postpartum depression.
Symptoms of Postpartum Depression
Experiencing stress or moodiness after giving birth is normal. However, if these feelings last for more than a few weeks, it's important to seek help, as these symptoms not only effect the mother, but also the child.
Postpartum depression can include negative feelings toward the baby, lack of motivation, mood swings, appetite and weight changes and even thoughts of suicide.
Treatment Options
Olympia Pharmacy currently compounds Oxytocin in a proprietary, prescription only formulation, called Vitocin. Vitocin is currently available as a nasal/topical spray. A prescription is needed from a licensed physician for Vitocin.
Dosage:The dosage of Vitocin varies based on the indication that is being treated.

Sexual Enhancement:
Oxytocin has long been known as "The Cuddle Hormone" for promoting feelings of intimacy and bonding between couples and also parents and their children. As a sexual aid, Oxytocin is thought to help a woman achieve powerful orgasms more often and more easily. In sexual relations, oxytocin has a dual effect in making the user more relaxed and open mentally as well as promoting sensitivity and more powerful contractions physically.
Postpartum Depression:
Recent studies have linked postpartum depression to having low levels of the oxytocin hormone. These studies are being heralded as a breakthrough in the understanding and treatment of postpartum depression.
**Oxytocin should NOT be prescribed to women who are pregnant or who have been pregnant in the past 30 days.
The dosage of Vitocin varies based on the indication that is being treated.

Oxytocin – Studies
Sexual Response Study:
To determine the psychophysiological correlates of hormonal response during sexual activity, systolic blood pressure (SBP), anal electromyography (EMG), and anal photoplethysmography (APG) were monitored continuously throughout testing in 13 women and 10 men. Each subject completed two or more tests of self-stimulation to 5 min beyond orgasm. Blood samples were obtained continuously for measurement of oxytocin (OT) levels. In both men and women, very high positive correlations were observed between the percentage change in levels from baseline through orgasm of: OT and SBP; OT and EMG intensity prior to and during orgasm; APG and EMG. The number of anal contractions and duration of orgasm were also highly correlated. Two patterns of orgasm were defined by the presence or absence of a quiescent period between orgasmic contractions. EMG and APG amplitudes correlated with the pattern of orgasm. Subjective orgasm intensity correlated significantly with increased levels of OT in multiorgasmic women only. The positive correlations between measures are consistent with a possible functional role for OT in human sexual response.

Oxytocin in Postpartum Depression
Researchers at the University of Basel, Switzerland, measured oxytocin levels in 73 healthy pregnant women. Sixteen reported previous episodes of major depression that had ended at least two years before they joined the study.
Blood samples to measure oxytocin were taken during the third trimester of pregnancy. The women were given written screening tests to assess their risk of depression during pregnancy and again within two weeks of giving birth.
Overall, 14 women were determined to be at risk for postpartum depression based on their test scores. The risk of depression was not different between mothers who were breastfeeding and those who were not. Lower oxytocin levels before birth were associated with a greater risk of postpartum depression.

What Are Past Lives? Many people believe that the soul, upon death of the body, comes back again in another body or form. Lives that you experienced before this life are referred to as your 'past lives'. The concept of past lives comes from spiritual teachings that the soul is on a perpetual journey through existence to more
I recently had the good fortune to go on an adventure to the Isle of Lewis in the Western Isles of Scotland. It was an incredible experience, not least because when I arrived, I immediately felt a strong connection and instant familiarity with the place. How many of you have had this experience?

Denis loved the young ones, the pretty ones, the ones who didn't have enough self-esteem to cross a busy street without worrying they'd get hit by cars. Denis cruised them easily in the clubs. He looked for the 'one' who was alone which meant he was alone in life where no one would ever miss him if he disappeared off the face of the earth.
So the night he left me, he went to someone else and that easy. There were so many of these young, pretty men that Denis drooled like a sick baby over them. And when he found one, a shy college kid with a slim waist and deep brown eyes, Denis knew he had to be fast and quick.
Denis's car was a newer BMW. Every rich gay had one and the young, pretty college student was intrigued. In the back, a quick handjob, and Denis easily circled his big hands around the pretty student's neck and pressed hard and hard and harder until the pretty student stopped breathing. Denis covered his big body over the still warm body of the non-moving kid. Denis kissed and stroked the young man all through the fifty miles or so east of Los Angeles, and dumped the now cold body into a gully. And when the rains fell a few hours later, the rush of the cold water washed any trace of Denis who hummed and giggled as he drove south back to San Diego. He wanted to come back again. He wanted to come back for me.
But when he did come back I wouldn't open the door and Denis waited and tapped his expensive leather Gucci shoes on the worn wood of the front porch. With a quick wack, Susan brought him down with one blow of a piece of wood she found in my backyard. She looked over his broken head, the blood slowly and thickly coming out, as I peered through the front window. She nodded her head and I opened the door and we both dragged him into the living him.
Denis was still alive but barely and Susan and I stood over him. "Man, that was good." I smiled but Susan didn't. She never changed. She didn't like me, but she hated Denis more. I never knew for a long time until that morning. I worred if Susan was going to get me. But she never did. I helped her mother when she tried to run away from Joe. Neither of us understood her parent's relationship. It was volatile, crazy, stupid, and made no sense at all.
Susan dropped the heavy wood next to Denis who snorted and woke up and began yelling. She picked up the wood again and Denis stopped when he saw it and me. He rolled over onto his back and said, "Why didn't you kill me?"
I shrugged my shoulders, staring at his face and how much I wanted to kiss it. But Susan read my mind. "I might later on. Or I'll have him do it," and Susan pointed to me. I wasn't shocked, but I wasn't sure if I was able to kill someone I loved. I realized, though, I was one of those young and pretty kids Denis loved so much. He love them so much he wanted me dead.
So it was either Denis or me, and Susan was going to decide. But Kat and Joe pushed the first stone. Denis came to live with me, Joe died, Susan became my "friend," and I stared at a defient Denis who would've gladly cut my throat.

Hey Guys,
Been reading up on a lot of different tire/wheel information and it's a lot to take in.
I know the difference between hub centric and lug centric, however when I'm shopping for wheels I don't know which will result in which when I put it on my truck.
I'm hoping someone that has more experience can help me out.
Looking at picking up a set of the dick cepek DC-2's for my first gen.
Here is the fitment guide:
I'm not sure how to read it though, is this suggesting on my truck it would be a hub centric setup?

The Transat Jacques Fabre seems to confirm his feeling: the first Pogo S2 Groupe Picoty will only be able to battle for the 4th place if nothing bad happens to the leading trio.
And although the Pogo S2 Campagne de France is now 2nd in the Class 40 ranking, this will probably change when the results of this Transat are taken into account.
So things are moving fast in the Class 40 scene, as does the brand new Pogo 40 S3:
Pogo 40S3-go to Lorient on Vimeo
I don't think they will be making a cruising version of that one
Best regards,
Yes Eric, that is how fast things go when racing is made at top level with racers and designers working hard to improve performance. We didn't yet come as far as in top car racing where on the top category (F1) the last year's car is an old car and without any chances to win but things come in that direction and this is good because it only means that advancements in design are coming faster.
Of course I am not talking about amateur or semi-amateur sail racing but about top professional racing.
Even so at the point we are, 3 years is already a considerable period of time in what regards hull development at the present state of the art and the same happens with the IMOCA boats (Open 60) where 2007 boats are considered old boats. From the four that were disputing the leadership of this year Transat all where 2010/2011 boats with exception of Marc's boat that sails one from 2007 that is still competitive, but not as much as the top ones. Maybe its titanium keel helps to make that difference smaller helped by Marc's talent. Anyway on the next vendee all these would be "old boats" without any chance of winning against the future new boats that will be built soon.
Regarding the Pogo S2 you are right, the boat is not competitive at top level anymore and it is not by the best place to be 4th on this transat but from the distance the 4th is from the first: more than 280nm is a huge difference.
It is a pity they had not the boat ready and tested for this transat but certainly we will have several on the Route du Rhum that is even a bigger classic than this one.
We have talked already about the Pogo s3 that is a very beautiful boat and that I bet it will be faster than the S2. Pogo needed it to be at the head of the transats again.
Pogo 40S3-go to Lorient
For the cruising Pogo, your boat, the 12.50, I don't think the difference in performance between the two hulls would be meaningful. I guess that from now on the cruising version will be built on the older version of the racing boat hull but, who knows, the owner of Pogo shipyards is a perfectionists and may decide that fast cruisers deserve the same kind of development racers want in their boats in what regards performance
