"Hard to follow audio might be a better read"
I read The Passage and was engrossed. I bought the audio sequel the day it was released at audible. I had a difficult time following the story line. It jumps from past to future and back like a game of ping pong. If you lose attention for a minute you find yourself entirely confused. In a print version you can flip back to find the time transition. In audio format it's difficult.
Although I love Scott Brick, the story is just too complex with too many characters. I expect the print version would be better format to consume this book. Normally I almost always like audio more than print. After 12 hours of listening I just put aside for a later date. Maybe when I am sitting on a beach with nothing else to do I will pick it up again.
"Magician theme and best in series"
This book did an excellent job of working in the theme of a master magician and his need for revenge. There are plenty plot twists and the pace is always fast. The narration is excellent. Its mostly plausible, but at some point you say it is way too complicated a scheme based on what the villain's objective is. It reminded me a little of the Silence of the Lambs where "bad guy" is quite adept at escaping from incarceration. He is a magician and a student of Houdini who made a living escaping from handcuffs, prisons and locked trunks.
My only complaint is that there is too many "plot twists" and book could have ended 30 pages earlier.
"Plan to be depressed"
First, the narration of this book is fabulous. Second the story is too "strange" The residents of a 40 story apartment building in central London go from "normal" lives to living in a building where raids on other apartments result in murders, cannibalism, and dog eating. All the while in buildings 400 yards away from where normal life go on. The book starts out well with tensions escalating between the tenants living in penthouse apartments and those living in garden level apartments quickly escalating. It goes from rudeness to murder pretty quickly.
The basic premise is that heart man is a savage and will return to barbarity without modern technology. I found it depressing and it is one the few books I could honestly say I wished I never listened to.
"Equal to a Dan Brown Novel"
I wasn't sure about this book, but I enjoyed it. It is a decent thriller that combines history, science and a little science fiction. For all of these types of books, you have to suspend a little belief, but this has a somewhat plausible themes. I won't describe it since it would give away the ending.
You have some history, the Vatican, the inquisition, some decent explanation of geology, and some thrills, so it's not too bad. There is some romance as well. If you like Dan Brown books you will like this. I actually think it was better than last Dan Brown book to be honest.
So if you like a little "learning" combined with thrills its quite decent.
"Decent Thriller set in Texas"
I have listened to the author's Joseph O'laughlin and have enjoyed them. They are set in England while this is set in Texas. The main character Audie, is serving time in prison for a crime he did not commit. He escaped the day before he is to be released, and the question throughout the book is why. I won't tell you here. The characters are all really good and the criminals are actually much better then the police. It is a good listen and worth the credit.
My only issue is with the narration. It is sometimes choppy with the narrator taking big pauses between sentences. His handling of women's voices is rather weak as well with weird accents and things like lisps. Although this does not detract too much from book since most of the narration is male voices.
If you like the genre of ' " good guy on the run" aka the Jack REacher series you will like this as well.
"One book too many in series"
I typically get hooked into series and at some point I realize enough is enough. This book was the enough. I love the setting of Northern Ireland, the narration by Gerard Doyle, but the basic material in this book is rather weak. I suppose that is just typical when you write a series of books eventually you run out of material, just look at the Harry Potter series.
I would highly recommend any of the earlier books in this series. This one, no.
"Not his best. Tedious at End."
I typically love Erik Larson books. I have listened to or read them all. I loved Devil in the White City because it combined a novel with basically a history book on the great Chicago Expedition. Although this book does introduce characters, there are really no central ones. It's basically short bios on the passengers on the Lusitania as well as Woodrow Wilson and his girlfriend.
It starts off good talking about the setting of WW1, history of the Cunard line, and German submarines, but by the end of the book it's more like reading obituaries of the passengers. Also the sinking takes too long. The boat sunk in 18 minutes but the narration of the sinking goes on for almost 2 hours.
At the end, I am not sure this was a good topic for Erik Larson. There is no real central character to focus on. The book therefore turns into recitation of lots of facts a figures.
"Better than All the Light you Cannot See"
I liked this book much better than the other. Both are good but this one is much better describing the chaos of WWII France. There Is very little "war" as in battle scenes. Instead it describes a country where neighbor turned against neighbor and the Nazis were only one of the evils.
Superbly written and narrated this book is a must listen. I would recommend it to young adults, especially girls. The heros or I guess it would be heroines are all women, including the Nightingale.
"Leaped before I looked. Happy I did."
I love the author's inspector Q series. I thought this was another in series. It is not. It is better. Highly plausible innovative theme that keeps you listening. With over 1000 books in my library I rarely find something that I would classify as innovative. This book is. Kudos to the author.
"Great Narration. Excellent WWII Spy Novel"
This book combines some good history (although characters are fictional basic story is true) and a spy thriller. You have your British MI agents, evil nazi spies, and even Hitler and Winston Churchill making an appearance in this book. The pace is pretty fast and you won't want to stop listening once you get into story. The basic theme is how the British fooled the Nazis into believing the plans for the invasion was at the major port of Calais versus at Normandy. The Nazis believed the ruse because they held their forces back expecting the real attack near the Dutch border. It never came and by the time they realized they had been fooled it was too late. The combined forces of England and America had a firm foothold in France. The book focuses on the building of hugh concrete piers that were towed to Normandy and sunk to create a man-made harbor. By the third day of the invasion troops and material were being driven ashore from ships in the Bay of Normandy.
This book has been out there for awhile, but if you like WWII books you will enjoy it. It is very similar to Ken Follet's Eye of the Needle.
The narration is quite excellent with single narrator having to do both Hitler and Churchill.
"For science fans good listen"
I enjoyed this book because I like the topic. It traces the evolution of cosmology from ancient greek times to modern times. Much of the book covers the three most famous scientist of their times. Galileo, Kepler and Newton. It does a great job explaining how the world evolved from a theory of the earth at the center of the universe to the universe as we now know it. The earth centric view was destroyed as soon as Galileo discovered the moons of Jupiter. The Earth could no longer be the center of the universe since those moons orbited Jupiter. The book also covers how Newton proved that the planets travel in an elliptical orbit about the sun.
This book is probably not for everyone, but if you like the subject of the history of science it is worth the listen.

Ever since my endrocronologist increased my Levothroid dosage to .075 mcg six days a week, my family and I have noticed that my short term memory is real bad. She doesn't think it's from the Levothroid, but I think it's awfully coincidental.
Can Levothroid cause short term memory loss?

Levothroid (levothyroxine) side effects
Stop using levothyroxine and get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat. Call your doctor at once if you have any of these serious side effects:
sleep problems (insomnia);
nervous or irritable feeling;
fever, hot flashes, sweating;
changes in your menstrual periods;
appetite changes, weight changes;
Less serious side effects may include mild hair loss.
This is not a complete list of side effects and others may occur. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
This is what I found on the net. One thing I did read that other problems may occur. When you are on other prescribed drugs.
Thanks, but I didn't see anything listed about memory loss.
Now you need to look at the web page I suggested to se if there is a problem between some other medications you take with this medication.

Dever Appointed to Lead Academy for Leadership in Long-Term Care
Dr. Kathleen Dever, Assistant Professor in the Wegmans School of Nursing, was recently named the Executive Director of the newly formed Academy for Leadership in Long-Term Care, a collaborative initiative of the Rochester Senior Care Alliance (RSCA) and the Wegmans School of Nursing.
The Academy for Leadership in Long-Term Care provides leadership training for nurses in long-term care; the development of networking opportunities to share leadership best practices; and the creation of programs to support clinical experiences and summer internships for undergraduate nursing students in geriatrics and long-term care. The Academy is the result of a collaborative approach to address Rochester's urgent need to build a skilled, diverse, and committed nursing workforce in long-term care in preparation for the aging of the baby boomer generation.
"Given the projected shortage of nurses in the Rochester area, the aging of our local population, and the fact that a significant percentage of registered nurses are reaching retirement age, we recognize the urgency of addressing nursing workforce issues. The development of the Academy helps the community address issues in regional health care planning, namely long-term care nurse retention, recruitment, and best practices," said Dr. Marilyn Dollinger, Associate Dean of the Wegmans School of Nursing.
Dever, a Brighton resident, is a graduate of the Marquette University School of Nursing in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where she received an RN/BS in Nursing. She completed an M.S. in Nursing Administration at Fisher, and an Ed.D. in Executive Leadership from the College's Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. School of Education.
She serves as a board member for The Friendly Home, Rochester Presbyterian Home, and the Delta Sigma Chapter of Sigma Theta Tau International. Dever's current professional memberships include the American Nurses Association, the New York State Nurses Association, the Genesee Valley Nurses Association, and FLONE/NYONE (Finger Lakes Organization of Nurse Executives/ New York Organization of Nurse Executives).
Partners in the project include The Daisy Marquis Jones Foundation, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the Northwest Health Foundation, the Wegmans School of Nursing at St. John Fisher College, and RSCA. RSCA is a consortium of the five leading non-profit long-term care organizations in Monroe County: The Friendly Home, Episcopal SeniorLife Communities, Jewish Senior Life, St. Ann's Community, and St. John's Senior Communities.

Twisted Fate - got to try him out lately and he's really fun
Warwick - played him for awhile. he's getting kinda boring but he's really fun and strong on dom.
Lux - a little too squishy for me to play frequently, but i really like her skill set
AP Malphite, bot lane. Buy Sorcerer's Shoes, Abyssal Scepter, and Glacial Shroud, you can basically blow people up and walk away like nothing happened.
AP Soraka, does well in either lane, except in bot I have been against other champs that I could do almost nothing against. The global heal really is choice to have, it can easily turn the tide on a fight at top.

Phil Miller covered three seasons of Twins baseball, but that was at a different ballpark for a different newspaper. Now Miller returns to the baseball beat after joining the Star Tribune as the Gopher football writer in 2010, and he won't miss the dingy dome for a minute. In addition to the Twins and Gophers, Miller covered the Utah Jazz and the NBA for six years at The Salt Lake Tribune.
There were a lot of texts exchanged between the Twins and Pirates clubhouses last night, after Justin Morneau and Francisco Liriano celebrated Pittsburgh's playoff-clinching victory in Chicago. Brian Duensing and Joe Mauer both said they had been in touch with their former teammates, and Ron Gardenhire, too.
"That was nice. [Morneau] was excited," the Twins manager said. "I'm happy for him, to say the least. That's kind of what Terry [Ryan] and I envisioned that day when we talked to him and Terry was telling him, [the trade] is an opportunity to get in the playoffs. We were hoping that would work out for him, and he's getting that chance now. Because he really deserves it."
Torii Hunter is another former Twin who will get to celebrate soon, but last night's Twins rally means it's not quite as certain that the clincher will come here at Target Field. The Tigers' magic number is two, so a Detroit win and Cleveland loss could wrap up the Tigers' third straight A.L. Central title tonight, or it could come tomorrow. It's Doug Fister on the mound for the Tigers today, with Scott Diamond facing him for the Twins.
Joe Mauer is on the field as the Twins take batting practice, the first time he's done that since going on the disabled list last month.
Oswaldo Arcia is limping around after bruising his knee on the outfield wall during batting practice yesterday, so he's out of the lineup. Gardenhire made it sound doubtful that he would be available to pinch-hit.

Young owes loan company $1.7 million
Quarterback Vince Young has been ordered to pay a loan company nearly $1.7 million after missing a payment in late May, shortly after signing with the Buffalo Bills.
The ruling against Young was made in New York State Supreme Court in Manhattan on July 2, according to court documents.
Young took out a high-risk loan from Pro Player Funding for $1.877 million during the NFL lockout in May 2011, while he was still under contract with the Tennessee Titans. The loan - plus $619,000 in interest - was due to be paid back in January 2013 at an annual interest rate of 20 percent. That rate jumped another 10 percent if Young missed a payment.
A ruling in the lending company's favor was made because Young agreed he understood the terms by signing what's called an affidavit of confession of judgment upon taking out the loan. The affidavit is regarded as proof and could be used at any time by the lender in the event a client defaults on the loan.
TMZ.com first reported the ruling against Young last week.
Young was unavailable for comment Thursday because he was traveling with the Bills to Minnesota for their preseason game on Friday. Messages left seeking comment from both the player's agent and publicist were not returned.
PFF filed a complaint on June 6, saying that Young missed a payment that was supposed to be deposited into an escrow account by the Bills between May 22-31.Young had signed a one-year contract worth potentially $3 million with Buffalo on May 15.
Young had a similar payment agreement with the Titans, court documents showed.
He was released by Tennessee following the lockout and spent the 2011 season with Philadelphia.
Young had already paid more than $180,000 in interest that was due on the loan before defaulting.
This is the latest financial blow for Young, who gained national attention in 2006. That was when he led Texas to win the national championship, was drafted third overall by the Titans and finished the NFL season being named the league's offensive rookie of the year.
In June, the quarterback filed a lawsuit in Houston accusing his former agent, Major Adams II, and ex-financial adviser, Ronnie T. Peoples, of cheating him out of at least $5.5 million.
Young alleges the two conspired to commit fraud and misappropriate money he was supposed to have earned from his five-year, $54 million rookie contract and through endorsement deals.
Adams and Peoples have both denied the allegations.

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The head of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) today announced that federal emergency aid has been made available for the state of Missouri to help supplement state and local response efforts in the area struck by a severe winter storm during the period January 26, 2009, and continuing.
Acting FEMA Administrator Nancy Ward said the assistance was authorized under an emergency declaration issued for the state by President Obama. The President's action makes federal funding, authorized under Title V of the Stafford Act, ?available to state and eligible local governments and certain private nonprofit organizations on a cost-sharing basis to save lives and to protect property and public health and safety, or to lessen or avert the threat of a catastrophe in the designated areas. Specifically, FEMA is authorized to provide emergency protective measures (Category B), limited to direct federal assistance, under the Public Assistance program at 75 percent Federal funding.
The assistance is for is for all 114 Missouri Counties and the Independent City of St. Louis.
Ward named Thomas A. Hall as the Federal Coordinating Officer for federal recovery operations in the affected area. Hall said that damage surveys are continuing and additional forms of assistance may be designated after the assessments are complete.
FEMA leads and supports the nation in a risk-based, comprehensive emergency management system of preparedness, protection, response, recovery, and mitigation, to reduce the loss of life and property and protect the nation from all hazards including natural disasters, acts of terrorism and man-made disasters.

Seatbelts could have prevented 3 Boston U deaths - 0 Comments
ROTORUA, New Zealand — Three Boston University students who were killed last year in New Zealand when their minivan rolled might have survived if they were wearing seatbelts, police said Wednesday.
Constable Tina Mitchell-Ellis told a coroner's court that the three who died and a fourth who suffered brain trauma in last May's accident weren't wearing belts and were thrown from the van. She said four others who were wearing belts suffered only minor injuries.
The students were in New Zealand on a study-abroad program and were driving to the start of a scenic hike.

Though people often associate Appalachia with states further south, that region's rich folk music traditions are alive and well in Pennsylvania. Rural farming and mining communities sprout musicians as fast as they do crops, and Doc Watson's had plenty of them last Friday night. Lebanon's The Jayplayers were the first to take the stage. Made up of singer-songwriters Keeley McCue and Chris Weidensaul, who joined forces in 2013, they blend traditional and contemporary folk sounds alternately reminiscent of Johnny & June and The Civil Wars. A brief set of originals and covers showcased their beautifully blended harmonies, accompanied only by Weidensaul's acoustic guitar for an intimate sound perfectly suited to the few patrons as they trickled in from the snowy night. The comparative locals in Rose Project hail from Kennett Square, an area better known for mushroom farming than perhaps anything else. Though the male/female vocal dynamic was similar, the addition of bass, lead guitar, and drums certainly brought up the energy of the room despite the mellow pacing of much of their set. Fresh from the release of their new self-titled EP five days prior, long-time fans were eager to hear the new material live. One of those four songs, "Sleeper Hold", was a definite highlight, putting singer-songwriter Bill Rose's chops on display.
Chris Rattie & the Brush Valley Rumblers closed out the evening on a rock'n'roll high note, adding substantial muscle to the roots music sound pervading the evening. Appropriately for their coal country origins, this was working class weekend music, with lyrics about getting out of town, drinking, and the like. They even had one for their touring situation: "Hotel by the Highway", inspired by places just like the Holiday Inn Express across the parking lot in which they'd later take refuge from the storm. Bassist Mark Sosnoskie was freshly off tour with Phil Lesh & Friends, and the rest of the band matched his prodigious talent. Lead guitarist Ryan Alford and Rattie himself swapped some incredible riffs and solos, and the room was rocking throughout their set despite the dwindling suburban late-night crowd. At the end of the show, the remaining audience members and bar staff were thoroughly impressed, deriding those that left early for all they'd missed. For those who were snowbound or from their hometown, they'll be playing again on Saturday, April 4th at Elk Creek Cafe.

Meanwhile, even former enthusiasts are beginning to give up on the "food desert" theory — opening a supermarket nearby does little to change unhealthy diet habits. So guess what's next? Yep, calls for more and stronger intervention [Ann Althouse].
Can a nanny state improve on personal choices?
Stephanie Francis Ward at the ABA Journal covers the panel discussion I participated in yesterday on local paternalism at the ABA Midyear in Chicago. The other panelists were Prof. Sarah Conly of Bowdoin College, author of Against Autonomy: Justifying Coercive Paternalism, and Chicago Alderman George Cardenas, sponsor of a proposal to tax soft drink sales in the city. It was hosted by the ABA's Government and Public Sector Lawyers Division and moderated by Hawaii land use lawyer Robert Thomas, who has much more at his Inverse Condemnation blog.
Panel on local nannyism next Thursday at ABA Midyear in Chicago
See you there? Quoting Hawaii lawyer Robert Thomas at the Inverse Condemnation blog:
Next Thursday, February 6, 2014, we'll be in Chicago to moderate an American Bar Association discussion/debate on a topic that's not our usual takings-eminent domain-land use stuff, but is still one of the hotter topics around. "They'll Take My Big Gulp From My Cold Dead Hands" is an hour-and-a-half with three experts in "Public Health, the Police Power, and the Nanny State," to quote our subtitle. (Yes, we realize that New York City's ban actually exempted Big Gulps® but hey, it's a catchy title.)
Joining me for the discussion:
*Walter Olson, Senior Fellow at the Cato Institute's Center for Constitutional Studies. While his list of accomplishments is long, we lawyers love him best for his "Overlawyered" blog.
*Sarah Conly, Professor of Philosophy at Bowdoin College. Author of "Against Autonomy: Justifying Coercive Paternalism," forthcoming from Cambridge University Press.
*Alderman George Cardenas, who represents the City of Chicago's 12th Ward. Among other issue, Alderman Cardenas has proposed raising the smoking age to 21, and to tax sugary drinks.
Here's the description of the program:
A moderated panel discussion of the issues raised by New York City's attempt to regulate the portion size of sugary drinks, and similar measures around the country. Advocates from both sides of the issue will present their rationales, and legal scholars and media commentators will provide the larger picture. The panelists will be comparing various state and federal approaches with the common question: what limits on personal choice can be adopted in the name of public health, the environment, and the traditional police powers exercised by governments? How do these measures work with a federal system where local regulation may conflict with state and federal laws, or at the very least may conflict — at least philosophically — with subsidies to sugar and corn producers, and protective tariffs?
It's sponsored by the ABA's State and Local Government Law section, and CLE credit will be provided.
Vending machine calorie label mandate
It's coming as part of ObamaCare (earlier here and here) and it might wind up restricting consumer choice [AP]:
The rules will apply to about 10,800 companies that operate 20 or more machines. Nearly three quarters of those companies have three or fewer employees, and their profit margin is extremely low, according to the National Automatic Merchandising Association. …
Some companies may use electronic displays to post calorie counts while others may opt for signs stuck to the machines.
Carol Brennan, who owns Brennan Food Vending Services in Londonderry, [N.H.,] said she doesn't yet know how she will handle the regulations, but she doesn't like them. She has five employees servicing hundreds of machines and says she'll be forced to limit the items offered so her employees don't spend too much time updating the calorie counts.
David Boaz comments:
In my experience, vending machines shuffle their offerings fairly frequently. If the machine operators have to change the calorie information displayed every time they swap potato chips for corn chips, then $2,200 [per operator per year] seems like a conservative estimate of costs. But then, as Hillary Clinton said when it was suggested that her own health care plan would bankrupt small businesses, "I can't be responsible for every undercapitalized small business in America."

Navy Soft Power Vs. Irregular Threats
By Christopher Albon
Against future irregular threats, cooperation is the name of the game. This is the message of a new Navy Vision [pdf] signed off by chief of Naval Operations Admiral Gary Roughead in January. The Cooperative Strategy for 21st Century Seapower highlights the unique position of the US Navy to "leverage access to the maritime domain and cooperate with partner navies and security forces to dissuade, deter, and defeat irregular threats at sea and ashore". Specifically, the Vision argues for confronting irregular challenges with:
- "Increased effectiveness in stabilizing and strengthening regions, by securing and leveraging the maritime domain, with and in support of national and international partners."
- "Enhanced regional awareness of activities and dynamics to include a deeper understanding of ethnic, cultural, and socioeconomic characteristics and norms."
- "Increased regional partner capacity for maritime security and domain awareness."
- "Expanded coordination and interoperability with joint, interagency, and international partners."
These objectives are spot on and follow my own thinking. However, probably the most important point is buried in the middle of the paragraph on the last page:
"[The Vision] recognizes the value of presence, of "being there," to maintain adequate levels of security and awareness across the maritime domain, and restrain the destabilizing activities of non-state actors".
Discussions of grand strategy and national security so often devolve into debates over hard power. Yet, however unsexy, the most powerful weapon is most often found in allies and relationships. Using the US military to train Brazilian medics or rebuild Nicaraguan health clinics is not about humanitarianism, it is about making friends and making friends stronger. In the domain of irregular threats, knowing whom to call can be more powerful than any weapon system. Call it Rolodex power, and more than any other branch, the Navy's got it.

'Vive La France:' Quick Islamist retreat raises questions about Mali's army
On Saturday morning, a Malian commander painfully tried to explain why none of his troops had moved north despite a rebel retreat 24 hours earlier in a train of vehicles that had headed northeast to the desert.
"There is no enemy in Diabaly, but they may have scattered in the bush," Col. Keba Sangare said. "We are prepared, but we are waiting for orders."
On the road just a few yards away, a bus rolled past, so overflowing that men clung to the back for a ride. Where are you going? "Diabaly," the driver shouted back.
The Islamists' retreat back into the shrub and sand from which they'd come appears to mark the end of the first phase of France's new war in West Africa – and if there was any single lesson to learn from its short span, it was this: the Malian military is not going to fight this war, or at least not in its current form.
That'll come as no surprise to policymakers who've spent months trying to figure out how to save Mali from imploding. Still, the scale of the Malian army's failure in the face of the jihadists – who careen into battles amid shouts of "Allahu Akbar," winning them a reputation here for not fearing death – is startling.
France did exactly what it promised in its first week of operations in Mali, pounding the rebels from the air, forcing the rebels to withdraw and winning praise from Malians who reported that the French hit rebel trucks with only minimal damage to nearby civilian structures. Amazingly, there were no reports of civilian collateral deaths from the bombardments, even though the rebels tried to use civilian areas for shelter.
But even with the rebels gone, the Malian military hesitated to advance and hold down the position. Civilians returned more quickly. They also seemed to have better information.
"The rebels have all fled, so we are heading back," said Brahima Samake, whose graying beard jutted out from a window on the crowded bus. "The info we have, we are sure of it."
Friends in the nearby village of Dogofry had called him, he said, and told him that more than 45 rebel vehicles had sped through on their retreat northeast.
Sure enough, an hour later, Massako Konta drove his motorcycle into Niono, coated in dust from the journey from Dogofry. Asked if he saw the rebel convoy go through his town, he did not hesitate to repeat what he knew: 49 pick-up trucks, two larger trucks, and two heavier armored vehicles had passed through his village between 5:40 p.m. Thursday and 9 a.m. Friday.
"They drove with their headlights off. We stayed up all night counting," he said.
"The road is now clear," he said.
He pulled out his phone to show photos of the charred shells of pick-up trucks in Diabaly. "I counted eight destroyed trucks," he said. "They've left behind lots of armaments, too."
In order to take over Mali's vast and harsh Saharan north, France will need ground troops willing to fight.
The Malian military similarly did not re-take Konna, the target of France's initial airstrikes east of the Niger River, for several days, even though France had reported that rebels had initially been driven away. When Diabaly fell on Monday, local authorities admitted the Malian troops at two nearby military camps also retreated from the area without a fight.
That leaves France with two obvious options to push the battle into the rebels' own desert turf – going on it on their own, with the Malian army only symbolically at their side; or waiting, likely for months, for West African troops from other countries to be assembled and trained into a battle-ready force.
On Saturday afternoon, a dozen Malian army vehicles drove north out of Niono and never returned. Col. Sangare, when contacted by phone, said he could not comment on whether they had entered Diabaly.
But residents here knew who to thank for the victory. Hours later, a large French convoy of over 20 vehicles headed north, led by four Malian trucks.
When the convoy returned two hours later, people chanted in the streets: "Vive la France, Vive la France."

Walken Dancin'

NBC did pretty well with its live production of
The Sound of Music
last season, so this year, they're taking another shot at a live theatrical presentation.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you
Peter Pan Live
Yes, the boy who won't grow up and all his pals will be live on the small screen in early December.
And tapped to play Captain Hook – none other than Christopher Walken.
Since he started his career in musicals – who knew? – there's a chance he might be putting on his dance shoes for the role. NBC's chairman of entertainment hinted at that in a press conference last week. "It might be the first tap-dancing Captain Hook you've ever seen."
Check out this video compilation of Christopher Walken's dance moves, put together by the folks at HuffPost Entertainment.

Prices fall 0.1 pct m/m in May; Pressures subdued, food costs drop 1.3 pct m/m
June 27, 2012 6:36 by Reuters
Kuwait's annual inflation rate eased to a 25-month low of 2.8 percent in May and prices edged down slightly from the previous month, mainly because of cheaper food, state news agency KUNA reported on Wednesday.
Inflation in the major oil exporter has been slowing gradually. It hit 3.3 percent in April, down from a peak of 5.4 percent in May 2011.
Consumer prices fell 0.1 percent month-on-month in May, compared to a 0.6 percent drop in April, KUNA said, citing data from the Central Statistics Office.
"The low inflation reading is testament to a weak demand climate and anaemic credit growth," said Liz Martins, senior regional economist at HSBC in Dubai.
"Even with the salary hikes we have seen in recent months, we don't expect a major pick-up in the short- to medium term."
Around 3,000 Kuwaiti customs workers went on a week-long strike for higher pay in March, disrupting port traffic, while employees at national carrier Kuwait Airways grounded planes for three days during a walkout. The civil service commission eventually agreed to wage rises of 25 to 30 percent for public sector employees, and proposed increases of up to 330 dinars ($1,190) per month for Kuwaiti private sector workers.
Paul Gamble, head of research at Jadwa Investment in Riyadh, said there was very little inflationary pressure coming from abroad, while consumer and government spending were not increasing that much.
"In general, the political uncertainty has hindered project implementation, which has kept a lid on one aspect of inflation," he said.
Project spending in Kuwait has been slowed by political instability, which has seen eight governments come and go in just six years. On Tuesday, thousands of Kuwaitis protested against a court ruling that effectively dissolved a parliament dominated by opposition Islamists.
"June will be potentially sluggish but then we have Ramadan coming up, so we will obviously see the usual Ramadan impact on food prices," Gamble said.
Food prices normally rise during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which begins in late July, as families enjoy elaborate evening meals after a daylight fast.
In May, food costs, which account for almost a fifth of Kuwait consumer expenses, fell 1.3 percent month-on-month, after a 2.6 percent plunge in April. Transport prices edged up 0.1 percent from the previous month, KUNA said.
Analysts polled by Reuters in March predicted average inflation in Kuwait of 4.5 percent in 2012, down from a three-year high of 4.8 percent last year.

Recently Completed: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
System: Wii
Story: Years ago before the Battle of Yavin, your father Kento Marek, was killed before your very eyes by Darth Vader. He sensed your force potential and took you in as his apprentice, giving you the codename Starkiller to replace your own name of Galen. Now his apprentice and years later (Close to the Battle of Yavin, but still a few years off) he sends you on your first task to test your abilities; to eliminate the ex-Jedi General, Rahm Kota. Going with you, is your pilot Juno Eclipse and PROXY (Holodroid) and the ship Rogue Shadow.
Time Spent: 9:48
The Good:
+ One of the best Star Wars games to come out recently.
+/- The story is good for what it is, but Star Wars fans will probably enjoy it more than the average gamer.
+ The planets that the player will see, from Coruscant to Nar Shaddaa. It gives the game a nice variety.
+ The force powers are quite satisfying. Throwing someone off a balcony or lighting someone up with some lightning are some guilty pleasures.
+ Effects are good, and the force powers look great.
+ Combos and chaining force powers and lightsaber moves together are immensely satisfying
+ Sweet boss battles against other Jedi.
+/- The finishers for the bosses are stunning, but use QTE as well. Totally worth it though.
+/- QTE in boss battles can occur quite a bit.
+ Music is stunning as usual.
+ Sound effects are the usual Star Wars sound effects.
+ Wookiees and Mandalorians!
+ A whole 5 star meal of unlockables. Costumes, crystals that increase certain force powers, blade color... And collecting holocrons, which unlock some sweet character art.
+ Multiplayer is a nice addition to it, but haven't tried it much.
The Bad:
- Linear paths, Just one entry and exit for most areas and areas feel confined in most cases.
- May get repetitive, slashing and using the same force powers over and over again.
- Poor graphics for the Wii version, the characters in the cutscenes in particular.
- If JK II: Jedi Outcast can have dismemberment's, then why not this one?
- The average gamer can probably complete it in less time, making it seem even more shorter than it appears.
- Sometimes in the QTE, the Wii remote/nunchuck might not register your commands, causing you to fail them.
- Personally, I absolutely hate jetpack troopers with repeating blasters (They fire in bursts, but feel like repeater).
Score: 8/10, loved this game, even with it's flaws. Using the force powers makes you feel like a bad-ass but there could have been so much more to it. Making combos of the powers and lightsaber blows is still pretty sweet and it's definitely worth at least a rental. Essential to Star Wars fans, but that is a given.
