Johnson and Scofield celebrate 25 years of surveying
David Johnson and Alan Scofield have worked together for the last 36 years.
"My wife calls Al my other wife," Johnson joked.
The pair first started working in 1970, when Scofield joined Johnson as they worked under Johnson's dad, Harry S., at his land surveying business in Bloomington, Minn. Two years later, they opened a branch in Red Wing and, by 1981, bought the business from Harry S. and made the Red Wing location the new headquarters.

I abhor this novel more than words can express. Florentino is a major stinko, and I was unimpressed when this self-aggrandizing pedophile threw himself at the feet of Fermina after his underaged ward/latest conquest KILLED HERSELF. Good lord. Why did Oprah think this is a romantic book? Why does anyone? I would rather walk on hot coals than read this again.

Why did Oprah think this is a romantic book? Why does anyone? I would rather walk on hot coals than read this again.
Talvez a minha grande desilusão do ano.
Sendo o Cem anos de solidão o meu livro favorito e, querendo marcar a morte deste grande autor com a leitura de um dos seus livros, este O Amor nos Tempos de Cólera revelou-se uma leitura sofrível, que se arrastou por vários meses, por vezes deixando-me a pensar porque é que continuava a lê-lo.
Não gostar do protagonista é, para mim, meio caminho andado para desistir do mesmo e, Florentino Ariza é, provavelmente, um dos mais errados e desinteressantes heróis românticos que já li. Talvez na cabeça de Márquez, a ideia de um indivíduo feio e mulherengo com alma de poeta e perfil de stalker fosse glamorosa o suficiente para daí escrever um livro em que o amor vence, mesmo quando a mulher passa mais de 50 anos a dizer que não. Na minha cabeça não é não, não é amor.
Além disso, a característica que mais gosto da sua escrita, o realismo mágico, pouco ou nada surgiu. Ficam como pontos positivos a sua escrita maravilhosa e um retrato interessante das caraíbas do virar do século XX.
tumultuous and romantic, and filled with gorgeous language
To be fair, the only time I have attempted this book was back in high school Spanish, where we had to read it in its original language. Perhaps it might deserve better than two stars if I was to try again or grab a translated copy.
Suppose, then, it were possible, not only to swear love ''forever,'' but actually to follow through on it - to live a long, full and authentic life based on such a vow, to put one's alloted stake of precious time where one's heart is? This is the extraordinary premise of Gabriel Garcia Marquez's new novel ''Love in the Time of Cholera,'' one on which he delivers, and triumphantly.

Shayanna Jenkins, Aaron Hernandez Fiancee, Granted Immunity in Murder Trial
Aaron Hernandez's fiancee Shayanna Jenkins has been granted immunity to testify in the former NFL star's murder trial, according to multiple reports.
Aaron Hernandez's fiancee Shayanna Jenkins has been granted immunity to testify in the former NFL star's murder trial, according to multiple reports.
In the midst of DeflateGate (or BallGhazi, if you prefer) you might have forgotten about the far more scandalous story that's taken some of the sheen off the Patriots' dominant season.
The murder trial of Aaron Hernandez began this week just days after his former team left Foxborough for Super Bowl XLIX.
Bill Belichick has bigger things to worry about than Tom Brady's balls or how to stop Marshawn Lynch from going full-on Beast Mode on him Sunday.
The New England Patriots head coach is reportedly expected to be called as a key witness in former star Aaron Hernandez's murder trial.
Jury selection continued this week in the murder trial of former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez.
Hernandez was arrested in June of 2013 in connection with the shooting death of Odin Lloyd. In the 18 months since, more damaging information has emerged regarding the hot-tempered 25-year-old's violent past.
Aaron Hernandez was already in prison awaiting trial for the murder of Odin Lloyd when investigators linked the former New England Patriots tight end to two other killings.
Hernandez was indicted today in Massachusetts where the DA's office presented its case that Hernandez committed two murders a year before he allegedly shot Odin execution style.
Former NFL star Aaron Hernandez has just been indicted for murder.
No, this isn't us reporting old news. He is being charged with two unrelated killings stemming from a 2012 drive-by shooting in addition to the murder of Odin Lloyd.
Former New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez was involved in a jailhouse fight with another inmate last night, and it could result in more charges.
Bristol County (Mass.) Sheriff Thomas Hodgson says an investigation is underway.
Former NFL star Aaron Hernandez and his fiancee Shayanna Jenkins had what you might call a "don't ask, don't tell" policy when it came to his shady dealings.
So when he called her to tell her it was "important" for her to get rid of a box "right away" in the days after his friend found executed, she did so with no hesitation.

AWESOME GAMEIf you are like WW2 games then this is the best. The graphics are amazing on 1080i HD. Multiplayer mode is amazing and campaign is hard and challenging. According to me its better than modern warfare. The split screen multiplayer is fun and online is even better. A must buy!!

Excellent game for single playerA very good game..infact a must buy for all COD fans.. i can keep playing back to back games over n over again.. Drawback : The zombie mission is very short just in one room...should have more gameplay for Zombie mission...The guys are quite good and easy to handle for a WW2 game. Story line is not impressive but a nice one to add as a collectible item.

Call of duty rocks !!!I have played many COD games and i must tell you this is a bit mature than your other COD games you can't just go in guns blazing you will get killed. For completing each objective there are 2 ways and that is in every mission. The campaign in the pacific is the best you will face determined enemy like never before they will come at you they won't fear death they will Banzai Charge you. You should definitely get this one guys and for first time ever you actually feel something for your Brothers in arms or your fellow squad.

Need Refrigerator Recommendation - Old one is dying
I have a Montgomery Wards refrigerator that is on it's last leg. Every time the compressor shuts off it make a horrible sound. I'm going to remodel the kitchen, but unfortunately I don't think it will last that long.
What would you recommend? It's only me in the house and I don't entertain and usually the Fridge/Freezer is pretty empty. When I go shopping, I usually buy enough food for a week or two.
Any suggestion would be appreciated.
ABT recommended either a Kitchen Aid or GE, but I'm not sure.
I've always had good luck with KA fridges and am happy with my current one. They are a well-respected brand for fridges over in Appliances.
Sorry yours is giving out! I wish I could tell you that your new one will last as long as your old MW unit, but it won't. Sad.
I've thought pretty well of KA refrigerators, but have not had one. We were looking at buying one for our remodel until we had terrible experiences with KA customer service on a washer and dryer. If you get a good one, I'm sure you'll be fine, but if you need help, I'm sorry.
Our plans changed and we wound up getting a built-in fridge. We later replaced our utility room fridge and went with an LG bottom freezer. I really like it -- as well or better than any freestanding fridge I'd had before. At least when we were looking, LG also made nearly the same model as a Kenmore. I would recommend them for a bottom freezer.
I would advise against GE. We just bought a new Samsung to replace our only 6 year old GE. The GE was a complete lemon. We had to repair it so many times over the years. I will never buy GE again. So far I love the Samsung, but we bought the largest one on the market so probably not the one for you. I cannot attest to the durability since we've only had it for a month now. The salesperson at the appliance store was saying KA is a reliable brand - easy to get parts. I had a KA before and we had one necessary repair in 5 years.
We are about to move into our custom built house in the very near future. The appliances my husband selected have been installed, and a couple days ago I discovered that the refrigerator Tweets. Yes. Tweets. If there is wifi in the house, the refrigerator can find you recipes, the weather, or take you to Twitter. I can see leaving the frig display set on current local temp, but for the life of me can not fathom who would need to Tweet from their refrigerator. (I don't Tweet from my computer or phone, so I'm clearly not the market.) All this to say: modern refrigerators can be tricked out to excess. Think of how you will use it and buy accordingly. Something the shopper in our house clearly did not do.
I loved my counter depth KA french door fridge in my old cottage. The house I live in now is running a 25 yo GE side by side, so as far as longevity goes, GE is probably fine. Check out the appliances forum. They're pretty clever over there.
"The refrigerator Tweets"
I knew some had TV like screens and read outs on them, but tweeting?? I don't tweet, but I can imagine an out of control fridge tweeting "Breezy must think the lavender ice cream is great. Two bowls?" Or however tweets are worded. Please. Spare me.
Are 22 year olds really buying expensive new fridges these days?
Thanks to the recommendations and feedback.
I thought of a temporary fix would be a mini refrigerator/freezer. I've seen them listed for under $200. This was I can buy all the appliances when I remodel the kitchen.
Buying a little guy and replacing it with the Real Thing later makes more sense to me. Unless you know now exactly what size space you'll have in the new kitchen, it would be hard to buy the "right" refrigerator now.
In CA many local energy companies will pay you to haul away your old refrigerator as long as it's still working at all. We got $35 rebate for ours last year, with the bonus of they come get it. You might check to see if something like that is available in your area and unload the old one before it gives up the ghost entirely.
A2gemini - you "live" your fridge? LOL, I can't tell you how many times I've texted DH that I "live" him. :)
We have a GE that's 2 yrs old. I bought it based on looks and layout. It's counter depth. It freezes any lettuce that is closer to the back of the fridge than the front. Ditto for celery.
However, I look like a super healthy person because now I keep all spinach, lettuce, etc in the doors (where normal ppl put ketchup, mayo, and salad dressing). I won't put the fridge temp over 37/38 deg F, so this is my compromise or work-around.
I also had problems with my old side by side freezing lettuce if it got too close to the dividing wall (between fridge and freezer compartment). So maybe it's me. But the standard depth LG French door fridge we left in NC never froze produce, so I think it's the counter depth or side-by-side that causes the problem (or my refusal to risk warm milk).
If you can have a std depth fridge, go for it. The PO here remodeled the kitchen and the island (that I love and never would have thought to put in) left not enough room for a std depth fridge.
We bought a side by side KA fridge this year when our 10 year old GE died (or rather was going to cost over 50% of the cost of new one in repairs) and we've been happy with it. For what it's worth the refrigerator repair person said that I should only count on this one lasting 10 years too - that the computers are the most common thing to break in fridges (that's what happened to my GE, and the repair person told me that he could tell by the installation that the computer in there was not original to the fridge - we moved in when the fridge was 3 years old) and most people just get new ones because the repairs are so pricey.
Had a surprise when I arrived home last night to put a gallon of milk in the fridge, it was warm and everything in the freezer was warm to. I guess I can't wait any longer now.
I went last night to look at the mini refrigerators which I thought would be a temporary fix, but unfortunately they are too small. Also, the salesman that I deal with at Abt Electronics was gone for the day and won't be back till Thursday. So I have a day to decide on what I'm getting. Any suggestions?
Well that sucks. Last year we bought a Whirlpool Gold fridge, bottom freezer, single door. Ours is on the smaller side as we have a smaller space for it. We've really liked it. Our out-of-area grown daughter even asked recently what it was because she wanted to recommend it to a friend. This line comes in many sizes and configurations AND abt carries at least some of them. We bought ours on sale at Sears for around $1200, which was an excellent deal on this model.
If you're still looking for a temp fridge, there are many options in the "rental fridge" category for under $1000. A friend of mine who lives on a miniscule budget just had the same "uh oh" moment you did (also following a couple of weeks of signs of imminent failure) and acquired one of those. It does the job. Her old one still functioned enough that she got the gas & electric company rebate and haul away deal.
Here is a link that might be useful: Whirlpool Gold site
Bit the bullet on 11/15/2012 and bought a kitchenaid ksf26c4xyy for $1,487 after a $100 instant rebate from Abt Electronics. It had a suggested list price of $1,899.
It's sitting in my foyer currently since it won't fit in the current fridge opening. I guess this will give me more incentive to finalize a kitchen layout and order cabinets.
I know that it won't last as long as my old fridge, but didn't spend a arm and a leg on it either.

This year's red carpet featured some surprising bright spots that really raised the bar on music award red carpet fashion. More
The women on the list of influential fashion icons we hear about over and over again are on that list for a reason. More
The MTV Movie Awards had the most red carpet disasters of 2014, so weeding out the best dressed is a very zen lesson in learning to take small victories where we can, like on Shailene Woodley, Lupita Nyong'o, and Nicki Minaj. More
In excellent news for all the pervs out there, Nicki Minaj posted naked shower pictures on her Instagram last night. She's refreshingly makeup-free and costume-less, and she looks undeniably gorgeous. More
Is Nicki Minaj an innocent wig enthusiast, or is she Shia Labeoufing us? More
In preparation of Sunday's festivities, we decided to go through old Grammy pictures and find the worst Grammy fashion disasters since 2000. The last 14 years have been an embarrassment of riches when it comes to fashion disasters, and I had to be especially selective as to keep this post within a reasonable length. More
It's rather fascinating how ESPN didn't think anybody would notice them changing somebody's actual head. More
She's the reigning queen of pop culture positivity, that's why she can openly announce that she would totally get plastic surgery without making anyone feel bad. More
Earlier this week, we admitted that we didn't despise neon as much as we once did–because its popularity has petered out in a big since its peak ubiquity in 2012.
…But, while searching for examples of successful neon looks–many of which we found!–we also came across all the ones that made us fear and loath it in the first place. Fergie, Katy Perry, Nicki Minaj, Ke$ha and more ahead. More
The world was recently gifted a new accidentally disturbing celebrity cake: the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton, has been immortalized in frosting and fondant and… the results were predictably creepy. As these things often are.
This got us thinking: what other fashion icons have been made into cakes? And how creepy were the results?
The answer: many and very. More
There are even accessories involved! More
Celebrities love fashion week. Not just because they get wined and dined, sit front row, skip all the lines and leave loaded down with freebies–but because they get press, for the simple act of wearing clothes. Their outfits don't have to be inventive, interesting or even stylish–if they're famous and anywhere within a stone's throw of Linc Center or Milk, they'll get photographed. For dayz.
And we'll contribute to the problem! More
This weekend, Heidi Klum Instagrammed a naked photo of herself–her most recent in a string of partially nude photos the model shares across her various social media accounts. This inspired us to go in search of some of Instagram's other famous exhibitionists–after sifting through the accounts of dozens of celebrities on the photo sharing app (and irreparably torching many brain cells), we learned some startling truths–Audrina Patridge's feed isn't remotely the bikini extravaganza you'd expect–and some less startling ones, like who belongs at the top of the list… More
She does not. More

In suburbs across America, traditional townhouses and developments come standard. But let's say your taste swings more contemporary, or your house dates to the '80s, is brass-infused and needs an update. One of the best places to start redecorating is the foyer. "I think an entry should set the tone of the house," says designer Raji Radhakrishnan of Raji RM & Associates in the District. You want it to "hint at what's to come inside."
If your entry hints that you're boring and tired, don't despair. D.C. designer Regan Billingsley offers this advice: "Updating an entry can be as simple as painting or changing light fixtures, rugs and accessories." Radhakrishnan and Billingsley, who are each working on foyer projects, offered us a few ideas for inspiring awe upon arrival.

Giant French Plantain Keeps Falling Early
grungeelJune 14, 2013
I have a few mats of the Giant French Plantain in my farm. The problem with them is that they keep breaking the pseudo stems before the bunch is ready to be harvested. The plants are 12 feet on average, and the bunches are 100 pounds plus. How do I solve the problem of premature harvesting for my giants?

LMU graduate given alumni award
Chris Caldwell of Corryton was given Lincoln Memorial University's R. Martin Peters Young Alumnus of the Year Award. The award is named after Dr. Martin Peters, an LMU graduate who became a supporter and ambassador of his alma mater. The recipient is a person who embodies those same qualities for which Peters was known.
Caldwell currently serves as the finance director for Knox County, assisting the Knox County Mayor in overseeing a $680 million annual spending plan. He also handles the finance, purchasing and community development departments.
Caldwell graduated magna cum laude from LMU in 2002, earning a Bachelor of Business Administration in accounting.

The international contest will help scientists find a new name for asteroid 1996 RQ36. To enter, kids should have their parents or teachers fill out a form with the name suggestion and an explanation of why the name would be fitting. The entry deadline is Dec. 2.
Emery and other scientists working on the OSIRIS-REx mission have built a robotic spacecraft to send to asteroid 1996 RQ36 to collect samples for analysis. The goal of the mission is to learn what conditions were like early in the solar system's development.

"A Great Start of a New Series"
Attention grabbing, a lot of action, mystery, questions.
Yes, because it grabbed your attention and drags you into the characters. It is a situation inside of a mystery that leads into a bigger story. The story ends perfectly with just enough questions to make you look forward to the next book in the series, the Cainville Series or Chronicles would be a good name. A mystery that makes you question motives, intentions with revelations that ask more questions, but not in an irritating way, in a "I can't wait to hear this story" kind of way. Highly recommend anyone who likes book series and dealing with old unknown and forgotten forces that humankind has either forgot or demonized.
No, this is the first time I have heard the two together.
Neither, I felt very drawn in almost immediately.
I have read and listened to Kelley Armstrong's books before, and I am not so much interested in book series. However, she is an excellent writer and does know how to peek your interest in her novels without confusing the reader. I loved the way this one came together and I love how the story involves several areas, but is grounded in a small town that is welcoming and a little mysterious in a good way. I cannot wait for the next one.
""Out of hell leads up to light" Merchant of Venice"
It is not always the case that you have a story with a certain genre and the details that were in this story that actually is well written. I really liked the true knowledge and honesty about a belief system that has been viewed in a negative way. I loved the characters in that none of them were "bad" and I really liked the portrayal of black men as not being violent, maladjusted or stereotypical but in a way that resembles my friends. The story is as if a part of history that needs to be remembered and not talked about or forgotten. I may be politicizing it and it is not a political story, but it does make a statement of social issues and in a more positive way
It had the suspense/thriller that I like with paranormal type of stories and a mystery that needs to be solved. Tananarive Due does a brilliant job of combining all these things together and weave them, and it does give you the feeling that it is woven like a tapestry.
I am not sure about books so much as other authors in the same or similar genre. Stephen King writes his stories in a similar way so that all questions are answered at the completion of the story. John Saul is another good story teller with most of his books and both make a social statement in the present or "that was then, this is now, but we still have things to work on."
Robin Miles is an excellent reader and there needs to be more of her caliber reading stories. She did all the voices so well that you knew who was speaking or thinking. Some other readers can do this, but I really loved and was very impressed with the way she was able to get the New Orleans French Creole accent and if I had to pick a favorite character that she portrayed it would have to be Marie.
I am not certain about extreme, but I would say it was interesting from a historical and even a bit of theoretical given it was an honest look at Vodou (Haitian), Vodun (West African) but many know as Voodoo and that was impressive. I would imagine if I read it I would say it is a page turner. It is the kind of story that makes you want to look up some of the subject matter to find out more about things and learn some thing new.
I would recommend this audiobook to anyone. The story was great, the narration was perfect and it kept your attention.
"Men are so stupid, this is why women are smarter"
Yes, it is not a bad story if you like stories that delve into myths and legends, which I do, but it may not be everyone's cup of tea. It was not a horror book so much as a mixture of a couple different things, ancient myths, the modern day, mystery, some action and drama. The story was not bad until the end. I did not like the way it ended thus the headline.
Not sure.
Bill, he was the funny one and sarcastic and added some lightheartedness to it that I felt made the book more fun to listen to.
Yes because if you don't you will miss some important things as there are two time lines in the story but it is done in a way that does not make it confusing. At first you are a little, but then it dawns on you quickly that there are two different stories being told and what ties the stories together.
I didn't think the narrators was too bad. I have heard a lot worse. Her voice is soothing and relaxing and as she goes on telling the story she becomes more animated. She does the voices rather well. It is a pretty good story, the plot was not full of holes or was so confusing that you couldn't understand it without using Cliffnotes. There are some things that are typical but maybe not in the way you think of. Hence the headline comment. The main character behaved in a typical fashion for most of the book but he did break out of the type a couple of times. Wish it had a bett4er ending but I can see where that could have been more difficult to do.
"Hearing a man whine reminded me of being married."
The constant whining about his lost love, made me want to slap the crap out of him.
The broken and damaged man telling the story. He went on and on about how he found the perfect woman and much she broke his heart. I have not heard someone whine this much since I got a midnight drunken call from an ex boyfriend. Who has time for it.
I have heard him narrate other books and he is ok. I am not sure if he was trying to set the stage or mood of a story about a whiny many you want to hit or if he just was having a very bad day or something.
Annoyance, feeling like I was babysitting and not getting paid.
Some say women do this, but I find more often than not that men are just as bad when it comes to broken hearts. If you enjoy listening to someone constantly talk about their broken heart after so many years and not have one friend of their's tell them they need professional help, this is the story for you. It is like dealing with some obsessive freak and everyone else reacts like it is normal when you feel like you are taking crazy pills.
"Preachy, people with religious problems"
Can't say, could only stand about 40 minutes of it. Too preachy. Felt like I was at a fundamental service. Some things bothered me, like a bit of xenophobia or problems with any one who is not white, and I am a white person.
Not this. But, if you are the type that likes to take about how religious you are and how much better you are to other people, this is the book for you. The background story was ok, but show me a kid who doesn't rebel and I'll show you a person who more than likely never be respected in life.
As well as one could.
No. I felt like I was watching the 700 club, Pat Robertson or any other religious nut job. I don't care what people want to believe, but I felt as if it was trying to convert me and I hear enough about this crap from the right-wing nut Congress.
While I do not believe it is bad to have a belief system, I kept getting the feeling that it was a bit elitist in it's talk about religiousness. I have my own faith, but I do not like anything that is preachy and I don't go around talking about my spiritual belief and how my way is the only way and that any one who does not think like me is wrong. Also, I was in the Army Intel and it is not like the guys states, it is probably one of the most corrupt of the areas to go into with the upper enlisted and officers just as messed up, backwards and without morals than the worst kind of anti religious person one can meet. Maybe he was an ok guy, but I really do not like to listen to an Army officer who has no idea about being enlisted. Plus, it is not as if his rebellion was a satanic thing, it is more of a privileged of youth.
"One you will want to listen to several times"
It deals with an interesting subject and consequences of it.
The idea of reincarnation and being with particular people over and over again in different lives, about traveling in a place where many humans fear to go and about the relationships of those that can exist sometimes with our conscious and/or unconscious minds. It was a very intriguing story of two souls who have been together in various types of relationships but always together in all their past lives and how they decided how to be together in the present one as brother and sister. However, due to a delivery problem, one soul is born and the other soul is displaced and must find another body so they can be born together. The births of both occur during a astronomical and astrological alignment that makes them special. As they grow older, they are connected not as twins as we know it but as spiritual twins. There is a lot of detail in the story but you may not catch all of in one reading. It is one of those stories that when you listen to it again, you learn something new. It also illustrates very well not only the closeness of the two involved, but of more sinister and insidious powers that would use this power for their own gain and rise to power. It is a remarkable story of the journey of thees two young teenagers and the adults around them and the danger that one is in when he no longer acts accordingly.
Very detailed and well written. It was probably one of the first really good stories regarding psychic ability and what can happen as a result of powers that be infuriate one of them.
This is the first book I have listened to that he has done, but I really liked his narration. His voice is soft and soothing but he makes clear, as well as the way John Farris wrote the different personalities, to know who was who. I am sure if he were to do it over, he might add some things to it like amplifying the different personalities, but I think he did a great job.
Because the actual "damage" or harming has to do with the strong emotion of anger in some situations but not all, it would be difficult to find another title. You begin to understand just what the fury is and what can bring it about. I thought maybe something along the lines of "The Twin Souls" or "Spiritual Twins" but it sounds like a metaphysical type book.
It took a second listen to understand that the two main characters were always connected to each other, then one forgets while the other doesn't until much later. Gillian is from a very wealthy and power family however, they do not make her a snob or have a feeling of entitlement and she is a very compassionate and empathetic girl of privilege, but in no way spoiled or self centered. It shows how uncommonly kind some in her "crowd" are. Robin is not a child of privilege but it happy nonetheless because of his relationship with his father. It was also good that these kids were not just two stupid, naive kids but had an understanding of who and what they are in a way that most of us do not understand. I liked the loyalty the essentially have to each other though one of them becomes so traumatized that it literally drives his insane and in his insanity, he begins to do cruel things to his "twin" and how the other twin desperately tries to find the other in the hopes that they will be revived and become rehabilitated. I also thought the idea of government or private entities using kids like these and discard them after they are finished with them leaving them forever in an unstable state, twisted and burned out.
The relationship between the kid and their "parents" is not one of non concern or pawning them off on other people except in the situation where one is a single parent and needs someone to care for his son while he is "working." In fact, there is a genuine love and concern by the parents towards their children.
One theme I thought was very interesting is that a couple of times in the story either states or infers that instead of seeing kids like this as special, there is no way to assimilate into their society as opposed to more primitive cultures are and yet we think our culture is superior. The basic inference is that people will destroy things it can not understand and I think that describes the more "advanced" societies.
"Good for those who like Fox News and Tea Party"
Less nonsense about being "holy" or religious enough, less judgmental of others, no elitism that makes you feel as if you are at some bulls**t tent revival or having to listen to these fire and brimstone ministers that pop up wanting people's month. I felt it cheapened any spirituality and replaced it with a lot of dogma, highly edited versions of the way powers that be want. I felt as if I was listening to the idiots of Fox news, the religions right and the idiotic people we have running the country. I does make Americans sound like a bunch of ignoramuses who believe all kind of crap that they have been told and cannot think for themselves. Do yourself a favor, unless you really like the "Rapture people" and their version of things, DO NOT BOTHER.
Definitely nothing along these story lines. Maybe debauchery and orgies and a lot of drugs.
Ed Hunter is a good narrator, but I could not finish the book. He did all of them that I heard very well.
It ended.
Do not get this book. What seemed like something that might be interesting, it was so similar to the crap we seem to hear everyday from Sarah Palin, Ted Cruz and the other over religious morons who have some how have taken over the US. I do not know why authors that seem to have some talent want to continuously want to write a book that has been written before the same as the right wingers' books are because they are all about the same thing. This book is complete and utter crap and very disappointing.
"Expanding plot"
Yes, for any one who loves mythology, especially Celtic, Welsh mythology this is the book for you.
Hard to say, there were a lot of moments that were good and makes you guess what is coming next. For those who read the first book, they know that the center of both books is the small town of Cainsville, an odd little town with a variety of characters, quite literally. Olivia Taylor-Jones aka Eden Larsen, a young woman with a psst that even she does not fully know, searches more about who she is. She is aided by her birth mother's attorney, Gabriel Walsh. Both of their roots are in Cainsville and some of the best parts and the theme that comes into play is the dynamic between these two people. It is not a sexual or love interest but one of true allies. There are times when Liv gets angry with Gabriel but it is short lived as they become closer regarding what they have come to understand about Cainsville and their heritage. Both of their goal is to investigate the murders Liv's birth parents are accused of committing and how it may involve the citizens of Cainsville. It poses many questions and answers some from Omens but you find yourself completely enthralled into the lives of these two characters in particular as they discover that they are pawns in a bigger picture.
Yes, they were excellent. I like the way Carine Montbertrand is the primary narrator for Liv from her point of view and how Mozhan Marno narrates for other people's thoughts, feelings and intentions. It works quite well because the reader knows what else was going on around the main character by using one and knowing what else is going on around by using another. It works quite well.
I would have to say that it was not one particular moment so much as a theme that went throughout the story. Even though Gabriel is usually the one who messes it up, Liv comes to understand that and backs off from him as she gets to know him. I liked the way the bond between the two becomes strong as they become very loyal to each other and have each others' backs throughout the story. I do not know what is in store for the two characters, but they make a great team throughout the story to the point of a best friend type of kinship as they both come to understand what was done to both of them and how their bond deepens.
It is hard to write any type of review because I really do not want to give the story away. It did not focus on the investigation of the murders so much as it is investigating a murder of someone who has ties to Cainsville and what they are able to find out about the people who live there and the effect that the citizens have had not only on Liv and Gabriel's life but others as well as the two discover their importance or role and how the plans of the townspeople is revealed and how others become interested in the two.
This is a story that will want to make you talk about to others who have read it to come up with what you think will happen next. There is so many aspects that I found interesting in the series so far that I am wondering how Kelley Armstrong is going to tied it all together in just one more book. I think it would be interesting to have side stories as some authors have done with their books. The Cainsville series so far is a great story that leaves you with a sense of fulfillment and also keeps you wondering what is going to happen in the next book.
"A different type of "horror" novel"
This was a very different sort of novel in that it includes just about every genre in order to create the world in which all of this takes place and is very unique. My understanding is that this takes place in the very distant future where humanity goes through a lot and presently is in a world where demons or demon like creatures rule the lives of the people. There are three POV characters that are followed from early adolescents, or in Rojer's case a young child, to adulthood and what makes them who they are. There are many things I love about this story and it is told in a way that you recognize certain elements that occur in modern day and back in history. There are two societies, Krasia, which is similar to the Eastern cultures but not one in particular, and Anjeers (don't know the spelling as I did not read it but listened to it? based on Western cultures and not one in particular. The world of the Western has become a similar to a Feudal Lord type of society in which the three main characters grow up in. The warded man ventures to Krasia and become involved with a different mindset than the area he comes from. I would say this is more of a drama, fantasy and horror.
I liked the way Peter Brett creates these two societies in such a way that is not prejudice or saying one is better than another but explains them and does not judge them. Though many may be more comfortable with the Western world, the Krasians are very interesting people and the culture was talked about more in the next one in the series. He delves deep in the three POV characters showing their honorable qualities while at the same time showing their flaws and vulnerabilities. All three grow up to have an special skill that make the story very enjoyable. I like the way Peter Brett brings the three characters together in their meeting and their similar convictions of not only survival but of inspiring others. There were so many things that I loved about this book that is it hard to just pick one or two things.
Some of my favorite scenes include a secondary character from Leesha's life, Bruna, the aged herb gatherer or the village healer. I found her wisdom and influence in Leesha's life to be very solid. I liked how she spoke her mind and would smack people with her staff when they acted a fool. One group of scenes is when Arlen at such a young age goes off on his own and how it shows his courage with being such a young boy and how he develops further and decides that he the master of his destiny. Roojer's life of how his parents died and he had to see it was a bit heartbreaking as is when Arlen is betrayed by his best friend who is like a brother to them. It will be a theme that is probably carried through the series as the main dynamic.
Definitely. It captures you and sucks you into it and you begin to care about the characters and go through what they go through both happy and sad. The characters are not real, but they have the same qualities that we admire in the world while at the same time show their frailties as well. I felt this story, though not real, reflect a lot in society about what we can learn from each other and what we are finally realizing out load as a society. Heroes are not perfect but are still worthy of our admiration.
I was very take in from the very beginning, which starts in tragedy and shows the three characters and the things they go through, both good and bad, that make them such strong characters. The idea of understanding and learning from each other and of different places is of great interest to me as it just shows that all of us have commonality and are not so different. I do not know if that is what the author intended but that is my perspective.
"Good atmosphere for creepy, Steven Weber makes it"
I would have to say that the story was a bit original and the narrator is the one that made if fun to listen to especially when he talks about the POV characters with an exactness that some narrators are not as capable to do. I am not a huge fan of Dean Koontz but he does have some good stories and there are times you want to yell a some of the characters telling them to do or not to do something. It delivered the atmosphere of mystery, suspense, creepiness. All in all it was rather good for a horror book.
I would recommend this to people who like Dean Koontz or would like to read their first Dean Koontz novel. Since I did like this particular story, I would probably recommend it to anyone interested in "getting their feet wet" with a horror, suspense book.
I thought he was great the way he captures the characters themselves. He does an excellent job with the thoughts and feelings of the characters and I know that is not the easiest thing to do. I especially liked the way he did the two sisters because he nailed it because that is how siblings act and react to each other. It gave me a chuckle which is what I think he intended to do. Excellent reader.
The part that made me laugh was the dueling sisters. I think all books that have a lot of mystery/suspense in them need a bit of comic relief. I am beginning to think that what makes a good "horror" novel is not the gore scenes if any, but the amount of mystery it has and thriller element that I believe are essential. It does build up slowly but it is worth the wait.
I like Dean Koontz, but I am not a huge fan and I hate to say that because he is a good writer and it seems that he tries to make statements not so much about how horrible the situation is, but the "horror" that led up to that point or situation to begin with. It is always good when you get some background on the characters of how and why they are the way they are. Not all horror writers can do that and I think Dean Koontz does that very well. I have liked what they have done to the movie versions of his novels and he does write about interesting subjects. All in all, I will continue to read his books.
"A very unique and fun short story"
Because it has different elements, suspense, comedy, and a curse.
Hard to say, the spirits were great each having their own unique personality which the reader captures perfectly from the first, the old crone to the newer ones. It showed the personalities as being very personable and will remind you of people you know. It is not spoken in old way of speaking, but more modern as they have been there for a long time and picked up on the current vernacular which makes it even better. The living characters are fun too with situations most people may recognize as their own from a time in their own lives. I would have to say the Old Crone who sat there through the years listening in.
I liked the spirits listening in on the young couple and placing bets as to what would happen, that was funny; I liked the flashbacks as to the origin of the "curse" and the simplicity of breaking it and I like the squabbling between two of the spirits, like an old married couple and I liked that a curse was broken by the simplest of deeds. It is hard to pick just one part because it was a combination of all of it that made it a good story.
Marty, because I have a cousin named Marty but in this case it was used as a not so friendly way and every time someone would call him Marty, he would say "don't call me Marty." They were all special in their own way, but I still chuckle at Marty because it reminds me of Barb Wire when she kept telling people "Don't call me babe!"
I like short stories because it is something you can read or listen to and it tells a pretty descent story most of the time many of which are significant in long term ways such as Nathaniel Hawthorn's Young Goodman Brown, but this was one that had a beginning and and ending and was simple because of the curse placed upon a family and it shows that the smallest of things is all that is needed to be forgiven for something wrong that was done generations ago. It did show some hypocrisy and the staunch belief and takeover of a reasonably peaceful path by those who are in it for their own good. It had a good ending and there were parts that were funny in a cute way. I think a lot of people would really like this story regardless of age, education background and spiritual preference. It is a good story and I hope others will agree with me.

curb appeal--a portico ???
HELLO ..We are looking for some input. We own a small cottage apprx 37 ft long..just a straight typical 60's ranch...we've added siding and all new windows but there's no architectural appeal at all. We are thinking about a portico..any ideas are appreciated.....the house is 37 ft long..the entry is dead centered on the house and 60''x 120'' windows are centered in each quarter...bboring..how about a double "a" portico with round columns? any input is appreciated steve and linda
Sorry if you know this already, but the photo needs to be somewhere online, not on your computer. If you haven't already, upload it to your webpage or an online photo album like Flickr (any will do). All the online photo albums have different instructions how to link to a shot. Follow yours.
we had a similar type home, only larger, but we put a porch over our doorway area..8x12..with railings and trim..after we had it for a while we eventually closed it in with plexiglass and a 15 light door so that it is totally enclosed (Michigan) for the winter weather..
we matched the siding on the peak of the roof to the siding on the house and matched the shingles..so it looked like it had always been there..i love it..
we added a small porch to the front of our small house, it is 8 x 10, since we have enclosed it with glass..still need to paint the trim aroun the glass as we got it done in cold temps..this year we also put a door on the front..so it is now enclosed..still needs work
ronbre Your house is lovely. I would love to enclose our front porch. We have the roof already. I am afraid it might trap too much heat in the summer. Do your glass panels come down for the summer or open in any way?
When I spoke of our 8 by 10 deck/porch on one house we built and complaining the door was centered to the deck. You did it the right way giving yourself space for seating with out having to walk through it.
All this porch chatter makes me want to go out and clean up our porch. We are storming here today but I think this project is going to the top of my list. I can not garden yet. I can clean up the porch.

Help TigerDunes! Heat-Pump Replacement Needed?
I have taken on the task of researching new systems for my grandmother�s home. Her home was built about 35 years ago. Because the home is located in a rural area we do not have gas, so the systems upstairs & downstairs are heat-pumps which are pretty foreign to me. They are the original systems from when the home was built, Rheem heat-pumps. The systems have worked well all these years however they are extremely inefficient at this point. My grandma is 85 & has some pretty severe health problems so she runs the heat non-stop once it starts to get cold here in Northern California. The electricity bill in January last year was over 2K for the month. We have some other electrical consumers on the property (Well system, Pool, Electric water Heaters) but I have singled out the heat-pump with the help of a Kilowatt meter as the BIG culprit. It�s now time to do a complete replacement on the system downstairs, (She only lives downstairs now). I believe the investment will pay for itself over time perhaps in a season so I�m looking for the most efficient heat pump system that money can buy (especially in heat mode). Maximum HSPF needed. I love the American Standard Hvac line, just did a complete new system (Gas) at my mother�s home last month that you helped me with & we couldn�t be happier with it. Thank you so much for all your help (TigerDunes)! I have located a very good contractor to sell us the equipment & perform the install but I want to insure that I am getting a fair deal as well as getting the right system for our a application. I would really appreciate your opinions/expertise, Thank you in advance, this site is really great!
Home Details:
�2 Story Home in Northern California (Pretty mild Climate that we have)
�2,200 Square Feet of living space downstairs with a crawlspace (Downflow System, not sure yet if the duct work needs some attention)
�Ceilings are pretty low 9� at the highest.
�The home gets sun in the summer months most of the day.
�Insulation in the home is decent, Doors are air-tight.
�Windows have all been replaced 5 years ago with more efficient ones.
Here�s what I put together so far from the AHRI site:
3933754 Active Systems HERITAGE 16 AMERICAN STANDARD 4A6H6060E1 4TEE3C10A1 55000 12.00 16.00 51000 9.00 34200
It�s a 5-ton system; I think we need the additional BTU�s for heat to quickly & efficiently warm-up the house for her? Also, does this system need a heat-strip? If so what size they make several variations for these air handlers (I don�t understand the heat-strip thing)? What do you think?
God Bless America!
Several questions.
What is zip code for gmother's location? Describe typical winter climate.
What size is system you are considering replacing?
It is difficult to believe that a 5 ton is correct size if home has reasonable insulation qualities.
I have never particularly liked the Heritage 16 (Trane XL16i). Note the relatively poor BTU output in both cooling and heating for system you listed.
If money is no object, you might look at Carrier's new Greenspeed HP system. I am not advocating it, just informing you. It has high HSPF for an air source HP.
There are three reasons for needing a properly sized heat strip.
1. To temper supply air when HP is in defrost mode
2. To add supplemental heat on cold days where HP by itself can not maintain indoor thermostat setting
3. To provide emergency heat in case of mechanical breakdown of outside condenser.
What size is existing heat strip?
Here is my general spec sheet for new system.
both outside and inside units should be replaced to have a properly matched system.
best matching VS air handler
full BTUs in both cooling and heating for your rated size
R-410a refrigerant(same as Puron)
scroll compressor preferred
electronic demand defrost preferred
thermostat with "dehumidify on demand" feature
staged backup heat strips
new and correctly sized refrigerant lineset
10 yr warranty on parts and compressor
you want a thorough inspection of your ductwork system. size, overall condition, supply and return lines, insulation qualities, leak test, etc.
any hot/cold spot issues in your home should be addressed.
My personal recommendation is Trane/AmStd, Rudd/Rheem, and Carrier/Bryant.
Depending on your location, I would not purchase a new system that did not have electronic demand defrost.
Post back.
FYI - if you have an air source heatpump, you really shouldn't setback the t-stat. Heatpumps work best at maintaining temperatures. They are not good at bringing temperatures back up. When you do that the backup electric element is used which is 3 or 4X as expensive typically.
Get new highest efficiency single speed heatpumps and your electric bill should drop dramatically.
Hey Tiger,
Thank you for the quick response buddy. You have brought to light several issues. First off the zip is 95141. The typical winters get down into the high 20's at night & 40's during the day however because of her health issues she's always cold. She likes to keep the house about 80 degrees in the winter. I can't even go into the house when it's that hot. No cold spots, just large rooms. The room that she watches Tv & spends most of her time is 600sqft. I don't know for sure what the size of the current system is yet cause we can't find the nameplate with the serial#? I think it may be on the backside of the unit & we can't get back there without disconnecting the airhandler & moving it out of the way. I don't want to do that until install time of the new HP. Do you think the outside unit will have the info we need? She lives about an hour away from me. Regarding the 5-ton question: I would love to go down to a 3 or 4-ton but I want to be positive it's going to provide enough heat you know. Interesting that you mentioned the new Carrier GreenSpeed HP, I looked at it in depth a few days ago however I'm pretty sure it requires gas as well. Not totally electric? I think that's how they get 13 HSPF? I'm going to call them as soon as get done posting this back-up for you. I'm familar with Carrier, have a system in my own home. I have to admit I love American Standard though, but have no experience with their HP's? Thank you for the education about heat-strips, all of that makes good sense. Do you think we need the "Demand Defrost" Option? What HP system Mfg. would you buy for your home if HP was your only option? Thank you again for all your help...
Here is a snapshot of your location's climate. Keep in mind they are averages, not extremes either summer or winter days.
Climate averages for:� SAN JOSE, CA, 95141
Hot weather Cold weather
��Average days per year above 75: 0 ��Average days per year below 40: 0
��Average high temperature: 72.7 ��Average low
temperature: 49.4
Really there are two things that need to be accomplished before you make an equipment selection/purchase.
1. You need to find out size of existing system for downstairs
2. You need a load calculation performed by either a professional dealer or you could do it yourself.
Just for the record, Carrier's new GreenSpeed system is an all electric HP system.
I personally would not purchase a new HP system that did not have electronic demand defrost feature. This feature eliminates unnecessary, nuisance, and expensive defrost calls. San Jose though appears to have a moderate climate so demand defrost is less of a big deal than a location in a colder climate.
If you go back to my check sheet, you will see my recommendation on brands. And BTW, I do have a Trane DF system for my home. Not always the best numbers but certainly one of the best and reliable on the residential market.
Hey Tiger,
OK sounds like we are on the right path. I will dig for the the info on the current HP to see what the size of it is. I have a call into my Hvac guy to see if he can buy Carrier Products(He's a American Standard Dealer)so he can work up a firm quote on the GreenSpeed HP system. I'm going to take your advice & have him do a load Calculation, however I'm going to check his numbers against mine. I already have done the measurements in each room for total sq feet. Please teach me how to do the Load Calculation the way that you do it? Just so I know how much additional cost is the "Demand Defrost" option typically run on HP's? It makes sense to have it on a really cold morning for her.

weedmeister is correct.
Demand defrost feature on heat pumps really is not an option.
It is available on only a few brands. Those include Trane/AmdStd, Rheem/Rudd, York.
I have heard about an aftermarket DD kiit that is on the market but know
nothing about it's use, reliability, and effectiveness.
Why so few demand defrost HP condensers? Because time defrost is so cheap and most homeowners are not really educated about the difference.

Becca Ultimate Coverage Complexion Creme combines excellent full coverage in a very lightweight, breathable formula. I know lightweight and full coverage in the same sentence has to be an oxymoron of some sort but truly this formula provides excellent coverage in a formula I'm completely comfortable wearing.
I personally like sheerer coverage since I don't require full coverage but if all full coverage products were as weightless as this I'd have no issues switching to a fuller coverage foundation product.Read More...
I'm so not a mineral makeup lover or user. I don't care who tries to convince me but in my opinion minerals are for oily skin types or people with perfectly smooth skin. I also stay away from minerals due to Bismuth, a fairly common ingredient in mineral foundation that makes me itchy as hell. Feels like hundreds of tiny ants are crawling under my skin! Not fun!
Mind you, none of this sways me from trying to find the perfect mineral foundation. I'll try just about anything mineral because deep down inside I have a hidden hope that someday, some where, my mineral wishes will come true.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
|Influenza (Flu)
|See also
H5N2 is a subtype of the species Influenzavirus A (avian influenza virus or bird flu virus). The subtype infects a wide variety of birds, including chickens, ducks, turkeys, falcons, and ostriches. Affected birds usually do not appear ill, and the disease is often mild as avian influenza viral subtypes go. Some variants of the subtype are much more pathogenic than others, and outbreaks of "high-path" H5N2 result in the culling of thousands of birds in poultry farms from time to time. It appears that people who work with birds can be infected by the virus, but suffer hardly any noticeable health effects. Even people exposed to the highly pathogenic H5N2 variety that killed ostrich chicks in South Africa only seem to have developed conjunctivitis, or a perhaps a mild respiratory illness. There is no evidence of human-to-human spread of H5N2.
In China, inactivated H5N2 has been effectively used as a poultry vaccine for H5N1.[1]
Low pathogenic avian influenza H5N2 virus in poultry later gained accentuated virulence in the United States [2] and Mexico.[3] A highly pathogenic strain of H5N2 caused flu outbreaks with significant spread to numerous farms, resulting in great economic losses in 1983 in Pennsylvania, USA in chickens and turkeys, in 1994 in Mexico in chickens and a minor outbreak in 1997 in Italy in chickens.[4]
In Korea, ducks have been destroyed at the farm since quarantine officials detected the suspected low pathogenic H5N2 strain of avian influenza on December 1, 2004.[5]
In Japan, H5N2 virus was isolated or an anti-H5 antibody was identified from chickens in 40 chicken farms in Ibaraki Prefecture and in one chicken farm in Saitama Prefecture from June through December 2005. The strain was named as A/ chicken /Ibaraki/1/2005(H5N2).[6] About 5.7 million birds were destroyed in Ibaraki following the H5N2 outbreaks.
It was reported on November 12, 2005 that a falcon was found to have H5N2.[7]
In 2006, an H5N2 outbreak on a single farm in South Africa resulted in the destruction of all its sixty ostriches. The strain was similar to the one that caused outbreaks in South Africa 2004/2005.[8]
In 2007, a low-pathogenic strain of H5N2 was found in samples collected from 25,000 turkeys in West Virginia in a routine testing prior to their slaughter. The birds showed no sign of illness or mortality. Measures were taken to prevent the virus from mutating and spreading.[9]
In late 2007 (December 21), an H5N2 outbreak was found in the Dominican Republic. 15 roosters and 2 hens where eliminated even though they had no visible sign of infection.[10]
In May and June 2008, there were three outbreaks of low-pathogenic H5N2 avian flu in birds at three locations in the central, northern, and southern parts of Haiti.[11]
In Taiwan, outbreaks of H5N2 have been confirmed in December 2008.[12]
In Sri Lanka outbreak of H5N2 in Bingiriya have been confirmed by the Health Ministry in January 2012. Around 5000-6000 chicken were destroyed, after some of them were confirmed having infected with H5N2.[13] [14]
In 2012 a strain of highly pathogenic avian influenza is devastating the South African commercial ostrich industry with 41,000 birds already been reported culled. [15]
In March of 2012, the first documented occurrence in Taiwan of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N2 in was reported to the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE). The outbreak began in February 2012. [16]
Japan's Health Ministry said in January, 2006 that poultry farm workers in Ibaraki prefecture may have been exposed to H5N2 (which was not previously known to infect humans) in 2005.[17] Data were collected from 257 workers at 35 chicken farms by Ibaraki prefectural government. It was determined that their H5N2 antibody titers after the outbreak were significantly higher than those collected prior to the outbreak.[18]

Sweet potato vines edible?
I just read that sweet potato vines were edible. Has anyone ever eaten them?
Sweet potato leaves are very popular in Asian & Pacific Island cultures. The shoots are sometimes sold in bundles in Asian markets. The good thing about that is, you can pinch off the tip & tender leaves, throw the stems into a glass half full of water, and cook the leaves. If you like the flavor, the stems will root quickly, and you can plant them.
Not all sweet potato leaves taste the same. I've tried some that were horrible, with almost a chemical aftertaste. The ornamental varieties with colored leaves fall in that category, among others.
Filipinos have an edible-leaf variety called 'kamote', which is the one I usually grow. In hot weather, the leaf production can be astounding.
But for a hot weather green, I much prefer the closely related water spinach. It too is often sold in bunches in Asian markets, and the shoots root even more readily than sweet potatoes. Water spinach can also be grown from seed, but unfortunately, it has been declared a noxious weed in the U.S., so seed is hard to find.
You can find a lot more info on both vegetables in the Asian Vegetable Forum.
oh...My parents survived from famine by eating them. That's what they told me. Food shortage is no long a problem when I was raised. But my mother occasionally prepare those food by steaming sweet potato leaves mixed with corn powder and seasoned with peanut oil. They are absolutely delicious. But my father don't like them possibly he just ate too much. LOL
