BOOK REVIEW / Little Frog hops about in a fake world: Jasmine Nights; S P Somtow; Hamish Hamilton, pounds 9.99
The real world impinges on his life when he meets Virgil, a black boy whose father is fighting in Vietnam. Little Frog is forced to confront his family's, and his community's, racism. Little Frog, Virgil and Piak, the gardener's son, form an alliance and the three set out to discover sex and Shakespeare, torment and transformation, mysticism and migrations.
We are in post-modern territory. A number of different worlds clash and implode; dream sequences merge into real Sixties history; books talk to books; and Little Frog learns the importance of bourgeois liberalism and discovers the redemptive power of Western art.
In its Thai form, post-modern culture is essentially a culture of fakes. It takes Western consumer and cultural products and duplicates them exactly, complete with a certificate of authenticity. Indeed, an astonishing 20 per cent of the Thai economy is based on the manufacture of fake goods, everything from watches and designer clothes to genuine fake antiques. True to this tradition, Somtow gives us a fake novel. In Jasmine Nights Thai landscape is artificially manufactured, its erudition is quite pretentious and its post-modern concerns forced.
We learn that there is something profoundly wrong early on. Somtow went to Eton, is a relative of King Rama VI of Siam and makes horror films in his spare time. Not surprisingly, his Bangkok seems to come straight out of a cheap guide book. The city Little Frog discovers in a couple of excursions has nothing to offer except massage parlours where prostitutes perform incredible feats of sexual gymnastics and Buddhist shrines where fake gurus conjur up phii, good and bad spirits.
Little Frog himself is quite unbelievable. Even before his teens he has mastered Homer, Virgil and Ovid's Metamorphoses, read an annotated edition of Othello and is a connoisseur of Hollywood films. When Piak's father changes his gender and becomes a stunningly beautiful woman, Little Frog can see through his 'simulacrum'. He thinks like a wise scholar, behaves like a spoilt American teenager and talks like a trendy philosopher. 'Is it you,' he asks Jessica, Virgil's sister, 'who will lift me up from the slough of poetic despond, from the quagmire of my subliterate maunderings?'
Little Frog's encounters with race, class and Bangkok teach him that truth is 'plastic' and that salvation lies in fiction. He discovers that humanity has been telling itself the same story over and over: the narrative of Spartacus is the same as that of the black slaves in the American South; the likay, Thai operas with their babies swapped at birth, the woman of noble birth accidentally brought up by peasants and the dashing prince searching for his lost beloved, are essentially versions of adventures from Orpheus in the Underworld.
In the end Little Frog decides to write his own play, moving Orpheus and Eurydice to the American Civil War with lots of contemporary references. The play, performed at school with whites acting the parts of blacks and blacks playing whites, does the trick. Racism disappears, the poor are enriched, the self-perpetuating cycle of injustice evaporates. It is a fake and unpalatable Thai dish. Art triumphs over bigotry, and Little Frog moves on to Eton.

I have a 2002 sebring 2.7 I change the thermostat also boiling over in the reservoir now I notice the driver side of the radiator is blowing cool air and the other side is blowing hot air any ideas
2 Answers
The water pump or a blocked radiator are suspect. Check the radiator inlet and outlet hoses for pressure and temperature. The radiator interior should not have any corrosion, if it does some of the fins may be blocked. Check also that the electric cooling fan is operating normally, turning on and off as coolant warms. It should run continuously when the a/c is turned on.
+1 on the clogged radiator theory. Flush it thoroughly with clean water and run it again.

text: A Slave's New Life Lezana had never owned a slave before. Being vampiric, it was customary for her race to keep a few pets around for feeding; But as far as she was concerned it was a barbaric practice. She wouldn't ever own one and wouldn't ever help them escape. She just wanted to ignore the problem and stay out of it, but something happened when she walked past the vendor that day. One of the slaves caught her eye as she passed. A young Vulpren, cleaned up and ready for sale like the others, but unlike the others she had an inordinate number of scars and the collar around her neck seemed far bulkier than would be needed for a tracking device. She asked the vendor about her only to discover the Vulpren was a born slave, not one of the majority that came through that Bazaar who were enslaved as punishment for a past misdeed. It took some probing and even a threat before she got the rest of the story out of him; the Vulpren was previously owned by a Kaimere.

Jeff Carter headlines DET-PHI injury report
Apr 4, 2010, 10:50 AM EDT
We've spoken a ton about how goaltending is one of the main stories for the Red Wings and Flyers, but perhaps injuries are the real bullet point to look at. After all, Detroit is mysteriously on fire now that the team is mostly healthy while Philadelphia is in disarray because of some crucial missing pieces.
Abel 2 Yzerman's preview included a nice rundown of the two team's injury situations, including expected return dates for the wounded players.
Dan Cleary (LW/RW) Groin (Day to day)
Kirk Maltby (RW/LW) Shoulder surgery (Early April)
Mike Rathje (D) Groin (Remainder of season)
Michael Leighton (G) Left ankle injury (Remainder of season)
Ray Emery (G) Groin (Remainder of season)
Jeff Carter (C) Left foot injury (Mid-April)
Daniel Carcillo (LW/RW) Suspended ()
Johan Backlund (G) Groin (Early April)
Say what you want about the Flyers' lack of moves in net, it's pretty hard to prepare for three goalie injuries (two of which were season ending). Of course, it's also not very easy to deal with injuries to star players like Jeff Carter either.

The staff is definitely amazing, the hotel itself is not as good as you would think from the price, but service makes up for some of that
Absolutely delicious Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes. Internet is awful
My tip of good service only applies for Mon to Wed, Thursday on, is packed and hostess and waiters alike are rude and careless

County Championship round-up: Chris Rogers hits his stride
Sunday 05 May 2013
Ashes watch: The selection of 35-year-old Chris Rogers for Australia's Ashes squad has been interpreted as both a sign of desperation on the tourists' part and a decision that reflects the wisdom of the selectors. Either way, the Middlesex batsman will want to prove that his solitary Test cap so far, won five years ago, has been woefully insufficient recognition of his talent. His form this English season, from an Australian point of view, looks reassuringly strong. He completed the 59th first-class hundred of his career against Surrey at Lord's yesterday as Middlesex made nonsense of their first-innings dismissal for 166. Rogers and opening partner Sam Robson each posted three-figure scores in an opening stand of 259.
India spring squad surprises
Extras India have sprung some surprises in their 15-man squad for the Champions Trophy, omitting experienced batsmen Gautam Gambhir and Yuvraj Singh but including left-handed opener Shikhar Dhawan, who last played a 50-over match for India in June 2011. Wicketkeeper batsman Dinesh Karthik was also recalled after almost three years. Opener Murali Vijay, similarly without a ODI appearance since 2011, was another unexpected pick. The dropping of opener Gambhir comes after his long-time partner Virender Sehwag was not included even in the 30-member provisional list. In Gambhir's absence, Dhawan and Vijay are likely to be the opening combination, though Karthik could also be an option. Yuvraj, who made a comeback last year after battling a rare form of lung cancer, has struggled for form of late and the selectors chose Rohit Sharma ahead of him.
Centuries don't run in the family
Batsman of the day Josh Cobb's father, Russell, made almost 150 senior appearances for Leicestershire, many as an opener, yet never made a century. Cobb Jnr, captaining their 40-over team, hit 107 off 95 balls against Gloucestershire at Grace Road, his fourth hundred so far.
Warks Brown in pitch bitch
Gripe of the day The return of the heavy roller has prompted complaints about lifeless pitches. After the rain-hit match between Sussex and Warwickshire ended in a draw with not two innings played, the latter's director of cricket, Dougie Brown, asked: "Is that a first-class pitch? I would doubt it."

The Global Furfural Market is expected to reach USD 1,200.9 million by 2020, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc.

BWW Reviews: 'Can't Take Your Eyes Off' JERSEY BOYS at Hershey Theatre
by Marakay Rogers - Jan 29, 2015
When is a jukebox musical not a 'jukebox musical'? If anything, it's when the musical is by its subjects, when they're an integral part of putting the show together. If JERSEY BOYS were any less a jukebox musical, it would be the original band on stage talking about their story and giving a concert themselves. With music by band member and composer Bob Gaudio, lyrics by 'Fifth Season' Bob Crewe -- in short, with the music and lyrics by the band's songwriters, one of whom was a band member, and book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice, JERSEY BOYS isn't as much a jukebox musical as it is a musical documentary of a hair-raising story that wasn't in the news at the time.

Title: Propagation and transplanting of Vernonia lindheimeri
Answered by: Nan Hampton and Sean Watson
QUESTION:I have located a wooly ironweed plant and have taken some seeds to start. This is the only ironweed I have seen. Any suggestions on how to start the seed? Also, if development of the property appears to destroy the plant, what is the best time of year to transplant it?
Mr. Smarty Plants asked Sean Watson, our Propagation Specialist here at the Wildflower Center, about the propagation of Vernonia lindheimeri (woolly ironweed). Here is what he said:
"The germination of Vernonia species is typically low. I usually sow the seed thickly. It is usually winter sowing, either indoors or in a cold frame, that takes twelve weeks for the seedlings to develop to a size for permanent planting. This time can be cut in half by sowing stored seed (stored at 40 degrees for ~ 12 weeks) in May-July when soil temps are consistently warm. They tend to grow faster/germinate better in warmer temps."
The best time to transplant ironweed is when it is winter dormant (mid-December to early-February). However, if you see that the development that will destroy the plant is about to occur, then you should transplant it then no matter what time of year it happens to be.

Drug approvals
FDA panel votes against Astex leukemia drug
An advisory panel did not recommend Thursday that the Food and Drug Administration approve a leukemia-fighting drug from Astex Pharmaceuticals Inc. and partner Eisai Co. Ltd.
The FDA's oncology advisory committee voted 10-3 against recommending that Dacogen be approved for elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia. One member abstained.
The recommendation is not binding, but the FDA typically follows a panel's decision.
The FDA is scheduled to make its final decision March 6.
Officials with Dublin-based Astex (NASDAQ: ASTX) — formed with the merger of SuperGen Inc. and Astex Therapeutics Ltd. Of the United Kingdom — did not make a statement in a press release following the vote.
Dacogen, which is licensed to Japan-based Eisai, already is approved in about 30 countries for treatment of myelodysplastic syndrome, which is a stem cell disorder in the bone marrow. MDS has been known as "pre-leukemia."
Eisai's application to the FDA to extend Dacogen's use to elderly patients with AML was supported by a 485-patient Phase III trial. But in a report leading up the advisory panel's meeting, FDA staff said Dacogen "failed to demonstrate benefit based on statistical interpretation" in elderly AML.
Astex stock, which had fallen 21.5 percent from Friday's close to Tuesday's close, was down another 12 percent, to $1.92 per share, in late-afternoon trading Thursday.

To despair at the international community's apparent impotence in the face of the violence that has claimed an estimated 7,500 lives in Syria would be easy.
The efforts of Kofi Annan are a case in point. The former UN Secretary General was in Damascus on behalf of the UN and the Arab League, to try to broker an end to the slaughter. But, at the conclusion of his two-day visit yesterday, Mr Annan could only talk weakly of proposals put to Bashar al-Assad, not of them being accepted, or even considered.
In fact, the murderous President Assad refuses to discuss a political solution to Syria's problems at all, claiming he must first rid the country of the "terrorist groups" he blames for the bloodshed. Mr Annan says: "We have to have hope." But it is difficult to see why.
Neither has Baroness Amos, the UN's aid chief, proved much more effective. Lady Amos concluded her visit to Syria at the weekend with a claim of "limited progress". Limited indeed. After a year of fighting, parts of the city of Homs have been reduced to rubble and thousands are facing a humanitarian crisis. Still the Assad regime says it needs more time to assess the request for full access for relief efforts. Stalling is not acceptable. It is up to the UN – including Syria's key ally, Russia – to make the point more effectively, not least by pursuing the legal implications in the International Criminal Court.
Even worse, President Assad's indifference to international pressure comes against the backdrop of ever-escalating brutality. While Mr Annan was talking of hope yesterday, there were reports of helicopter gunships in action against the rebel stronghold in Idlib and the shelling of Homs continued unabated.
For all the rebels' requests, international military intervention cannot be an option. But efforts to broker talks need greater urgency. Even allowing for the rules of diplomacy, Mr Annan and Lady Amos have been less than muscular in their condemnation of the dreadful violence in Syria. Political pressure is the only route open to us. To have a hope of success, it must be pursued with vigour. So far, President Assad is still calling the shots.

Are you guys going to write about the passing of Bill Green, who won the 1980 Olympic trials in the 400 and won CCS for Cubberley?

I agree with you. Bill Green should have a story written about him. He was the real deal, back in the day. He was cheated out of an Olympic bid, 1980, due to politics, but he was the USA top candidate for a medal in the 400m.
Same thing happended to Harold Davis, another local kid (Morgan Hill), in 1940. He was the favorite to win the 100m and 200m dashes. WWII cancelled him out.
Both of them were chariots of fire.
