Can pavements become a source of renewable energy and how to make transport systems resilient to unexpected climate change events? Research that addresses these questions got two UK-based students amongst the six gold medallists in a prestigious EU competition. Rawia El Rashidy from University of Leeds and Nottingham University student Pejman Keikhaei Dehdezi, competed against 350 entries for this year's Young European Arena of Research (YEAR) Award.
Rawia's work focused on designing a reliable way to measure the resilience of transport networks during and after an unexpected climate change event by using characteristics such as redundancy, reliability and mobility. She is currently a PhD research student at the Institute for Transport Studies, University of Leeds. Pejman looked into how large pavement areas (roads, pedestrian pathways and parking areas) can be used as energy collectors and/or storage. He is currently a PhD student at the University of Nottingham and has so far authored or co-authored five peer-reviewed journal publications and four conference publications.
(more detailed research abstracts further below)
Máire Geoghegan-Quinn, European Commissioner for Research, Innovation and Science presented the six gold medallists their awards. The other winners come from universities in France, Ireland, Italy and Switzerland.
The Young European Arena of Research (YEAR) is an EU-funded competition which gives research students in the field of surface transport the opportunity to showcase their work to leading experts in academia and industry, both online and at the Transport Research Arena Conference. The competition is open to young researchers registered in a college or university from across the European Union, EU Candidate Countries, potential EU Candidate Countries and the European Economic Area.
The YEAR 2012 website: www.year2012.traconference.eu
Rawia El Rashidy, University of Leeds, competed in the YEAR competition category Governance of the transport system.
Research summary:
Resilience Assignment Framework using System Dynamic and Fuzzy Logic
This research project focuses on designing a reliable indicator framework to measure the resilience of transport network under unexpected climate change related events. The main advantage of the proposed framework is its ability to consider the effect of network configuration and demand amplification during and after the event by the use of resilience characteristics such as redundancy, reliability and mobility. The framework will be of use to different stakeholders such as decision makers, highway agency and industry in understanding the dynamic nature of resilience under various events. Furthermore, it could be employed as an evaluation tool to gauge transport network performance and highlight weaknesses in the network. The proposed framework will also provide an opportunity to investigate the role of intelligent transport systems in improving the resilience of transport network.
Pejman Keikhaei Dehdezi, University of Nottingham, competed in the field of Energy, environment and resources.
Research summary:
Enhancing Pavements for Thermal Applications
Renewable energy technologies are likely to become more important as other energy sources become depleted and the cost of power generation using fossil fuels rises. However, in most cases, renewable energy technologies require high initial investments that may deter potential users. Pavements comprise large areas of our infrastructure and include roads, pedestrian pathways and parking areas. In addition, many buildings that have a high heating and/or cooling load are built adjacent to large pavement areas (e.g. airport terminals, shopping malls, factories, warehouses, school buildings, and retail outlets). Therefore, there is a great opportunity to turn pavements into a ubiquitous and inexpensive source of energy by equipping it with fluid-filled pipes. The research aims to optimise a pavement's materials & structure, experimentally and numerically, in order to serve as a solar energy collector and/or storage where the energy can be delivered to nearby buildings (directly or in conjunction with heat pumps).

Effective Marketing on a Shoestring: Part ONE
By shoestring101 on August 14, 2013
A lot of the marketing principles that I teach in my books and on this blog were learned PRE-internet.
That's not to say these principles aren't up-to-date. They're principles, not techniques... and therefore don't have a shelf life.
I'm interested... as I'm sure YOU are... in social media, SEO, tweeting about like a twit and all ;-) Great tools and techniques for getting your message to the right people.
But..! What underlies each of these techniques and tools are timeless axioms that worked waaay back... still work now... and are sure to work in the future when the Next New Big Thing comes along.
It's not what you use to communicate your marketing message, it's how you use it.
They're principles, not techniques... and therefore don't have a shelf life.
So in this first installment of a series on Effective Marketing on a Shoestring Budget, I'll briefly take you back to the Shoestring Story and my days as a 19-year-old small business owner of a lawn care company.
"Marketing" Should Really Be Called "Finding"
In the late eighties as a teenager I was pulling down about $30 an hour as a small business person. I wanted to make more than that, more often, but was running into a wall.
The only limits on my income, it seemed, were the number of people I could serve. Makes sense, right?
And the number of people I could serve was limited by the number of folks I could convince of the need for my service. Check, gotcha so far.
The most effective way to sell my services was one-to-one; if I were standing on the doorstep of an interested customer and handed her a flyer, a few questions and answers later we'd be booking an appointment. I would score a job that'd pay $30-id="mce_marker"00 for 15 minutes to an hour's worth of work. Not shabby, BUT..!
..where to find these interested customers? THAT was the obstacle.
Profiling: It's Not Just For Terrorists Any More
So really my first foray into marketing as opposed to sales happened when I was 19. I was a decent salesperson. But selling "ice to eskimos" is not the way to go... you want to be standing in front of a "qualified prospect" or might as well save your breath.
Some folks didn't give two hoots about their lawn's appearance; obviously they weren't prospects. We could usually tell that from the general condition of a neighborhood: if everyone's lawn looked like hell, maybe they NEEDED our services... but didn't WANT 'em.
So, phooey. Next street.
In "nicer" neighborhoods we found that some folks did care about their lawns, but didn't have money to pay us. They were busy working two jobs to make ends meet.
Another category of peeps cared about their lawns, and could pay us... but wouldn't because they had plenty of time and took too much pride in doing it themselves. Damn retirees! ;-)
But there was a golden intersection that happened every so often where we would find the ideal customer. Folks that cared about their lawns, didn't have the time (or inclination) to do it themselves, and had the cash.
So my friend Eric and I developed a "customer profile"...the first and most important step that YOU need to take as a marketer. We needed to know EXACTLY who to talk to in order to save time, money, and printing costs.
Here was the conundrum: there was no real way to tell where these people lived.
Laser Targeting vs. Shotgun Approach to Marketing: Why Choose ONE?
I'd like to say I was a teen marketing genius and that the next thing happened on purpose. It didn't; I totally happened on it by chance. But now I call it the Shotgun/Laser Approach and I use it or some variation all the time.
See, I just plain got tired of walking up and down streets handing out flyers. Sure, if we happened to find a really good neighborhood with lots of our kind of customer, the flyers would work GREAT. But most of the time we were wasting time and paper.
So I placed a newspaper ad in the Thrifty Nickel. The Thrifty Nickel (now called American Classifieds) is a classified ads-only local rag that reaches about 120,000 people in Colorado Springs. It was cheap, had a lot of reach... but obviously the message is diluted because you've got about five thousand other ads in the same paper competing with yours.
Our results were lackluster: only three calls. At least it was cheap. Kinda.
Then I noticed something friggin' WONDERFUL.

Rep. Eric Cantor (R-Va.), the Republican majority leader in the House of Representatives, will lead 26 GOP lawmakers next week on a tour of Israel funded by AIPAC's educational affiliate.
The visit follows on the heels of a similar one this week for 37 Democratic lawmakers led by Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.), the House Democratic whip. Such tours, funded by the American Israel Education Foundation, an affiliate of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, are held on off-election years and are geared to freshmen lawmakers.
Participants meet with Israeli and Palestinian leaders and tour congressionally funded facilities, including Israel's anti-missile systems.

Now here's a great example of a gimmicky, do-nothing product masquerading as a specialty treatment. This cloth mask, pre-cut to fit over your face, is supposed to be a groundbreaking treatment. The thing is, formula-wise, Sephora didn't even crack the dirt. It's mostly water, slip agents, skin-damaging alcohol, and preservative. This is far removed from a "super-soothing face mask," though they did include a token amount of notable anti-irritants. Considering the benefits that you won't see from this single-use mask, the price is a burn.
Feel the effects of beauty boosting Technology with Sephora Brand's Power Face Mask - Fusio-Fiber Face Mask. This groundbreaking thermal treatment establishes instant affinity with the skin to achieve masterfully smooth results.
Water, Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Alcohol, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Acrylates/ C 10 - 30 Acrylates Crosspolymer, Potassium Hydroxide, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Disodium EDTA, Polyquaternium-51, Sodium Hyaluronate, Curcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root Extract, Phellodendron Amurense (Bark) Extract, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract, Algae Extract
Sephora At-A-Glance
Strengths: Inexpensive; some good cleansers and makeup removers; the Blotting Papers; good powder foundation; impressive blush and shiny eyeshadow options; great metallic finish eyeliner; awesome brow kit; bountiful selection of lipsticks and lip glosses; a couple of very good mascaras; several outstanding makeup brushes; testers are available in-store for each product, and sales pressure is practically nonexistent.
Weaknesses: Mostly average to below-average toners, moisturizers, and sunscreens; no options for those dealing with acne or skin discolorations; some SPF-rated products (including foundations) lack sufficient UVA-protecting actives; the lip plumper is too irritating; too many disappointing eye-makeup products, including several disappointing eyeliners and brow pencils; unappealing shimmer powders.
Sephora's first foray into skin care was back in 1994, when they offered a colorful, artfully packaged selection of bath gels. Their facial skin-care came on the scene a few years later, but for the most part wasn't worth waiting for. Sephora must not have been too pleased with these earlier versions, because lots of retooling has been done, although, sad to say, that hasn't improved on the ordinary, mundane status their products have consistently shared. Makeup is what Sephora's house brand does best. The only reason to shop this inexpensive skin-care selection is for everyday basics or the occasional impulse buy you may or may not enjoy adding to your routine. Otherwise, most of the skin-care products can't compete with the other brands sold in Sephora boutiques worldwide.
Note: Sephora is categorized as one that tests on animals because their products are sold in China. Although Sephora may not conduct animal testing for their products sold elsewhere, the Chinese government requires imported cosmetics be tested on animals, so foreign companies retailing there must comply. This requirement is why some brand's state that they don't test on animals "unless required by law". Animal rights organizations consider cosmetic companies retailed in China to be brands that test on animals, and so does the Paula's Choice Research Team.

Sephora Makeup
Once an incomplete line lacking such basics as foundation and concealer, Sephora's color collection has blossomed into a comprehensive group of products, most of which are priced considerably lower than products from the many other lines sold in their boutiques. Although the low price and the selection may draw you in, not everything is worth exploring; for example, some of the products (for example the inexpensive pencils, which are not worth considering) demonstrate the old adage that sometimes you really do get what you pay for. That's not to say you have to spend a lot of money for quality makeup, but it does seem that many of Sephora's potential bargains are below average in terms of performance.
What you really should pay attention to are the pressed-powder foundation, one of the concealers, the powder blush, the liquid shimmer, and a few of the mascaras. Of course, the hallmark of this line has always been an extensive selection of makeup brushes. That still holds true, and you'll find that in this case the prices are more than fair.
More than most other makeup lines, Sephora excels with their accessory offerings. From makeup bags to train cases and on to all manner of beauty tools (from tweezers to nail clippers and manicure aids), the selection means you will assuredly find something that meets your needs. It's easy to get caught up in the variety and scope of Sephora's makeup, and testers are readily available so you can play all you want. That's great, but it doesn't compensate for a line with more than its share of average to poor products (and they change frequently, often not for the better). However, if you pay attention to the favorably rated products, you're more than likely to be very pleased.

For starters im a little over 1400 elo(just to put this in context)
So every game, ranked or not, people call out either what they want or what they are capable of doing. And most the time you are not blessed with someone who mains support so someone doesnt get the role they want. My problem is i always say what i want but do offer to the team that i can fill any role we need. As you could imagine saying that lands me in the support role a lot becuz lets face it its the least popular role. I personally love support and think its fun and to be clear im not only talking about people not being able to support but any role. I understand people have their best/favorite roles but how can you call yourself good at this game if you cant even play a role well. I trust myself playing multiple characters in multiple roles and cant stand wen someone claims they can only do two of roles.
Ive already seen this improve as i move up in elo but its just annoying that people arent as flexible as they should in the queue
im with you man. Every ranked game its like JUNGLE, AP MID AD CARRY and im always playing a support bot (which im really dont like) in sake for the team comp. And then the people who intslock and call are terrible at what they are suppose to do
For me, I can currently fill any role excluding jungle. Although, if my team absolutely requires a jungler, I do own Amumu, Nunu, and Alistar. So, I will improvise...just do not expect much out of me. Although, personally, I think that a bad jungler is worse than just not having one. Assuming you are not just letting the enemy jungler freely get those creeps.
I asked a more experienced player if I should start playing ranked at level 30. He told me that I should start ranked when I am decent at every role and have at least three champions for each role. In a normal game, if you can only play AD or AP carry...this is the time for you to branch out a little.
When I do start ranked games, I want to specialize in supporting. I just think it is better to have a support specialist be a support than someone who dreads the position. It increases the chance that the other players will get positions they are better at. As much as people say support is an easy role that is just a ward factory, I do take some pride in the role. You do not know how good it is to have a decent support until you have a crappy one. With my wards, I protect my AD carries from the enemy jungler ganks along with helping my jungler when he wants to go bot. I focus on calling MIA in the bot lane so my AD carry can focus on killing creeps and keeping an eye out for the enemy. I have clairvoyance so I can support top lane by giving him a "few seconds ward." I know it is an unappreciated job. My hope is that I will someday get in a ranked team that does appreciate me. Oh, and I do enjoy playing support. Although, I recently grown tired of Soraka. She makes the game...too passive. I wish my AD was a little more aggressive sometimes...
Sorry for the wall of text. I have a problem with that, I am trying to get better to please patient with me >.<
i main support dont even get me started....
I just say "ad preferred" before I go into a queue, that way they know what I'm best with, but also that I can do anything else.
There's countless threads on people complaining of being stuck at low elo. The answer: carry themself.
Are u honestly wondering why nobody wants to play a role in which he has to trust his team to not be a bunch of loafless idiots?
Jungle is actually the least popular role in the game.
For me I can play pretty much everything but mid, like if my elo was based of how I play in mid I would probably be in the negatives. But generally if im 1st/2nd pick I go AD carry, if I'm last or 2nd last pick I'll go top or support, and I'll avoid mid as much as I can. I'm only an average jungler, so i only jungle when I have to but I would much rather support than mid.
Junior Member
Some players dont give a **** about others, and truthfully I reached my elo, currently 1766 with only playing top lane.
IG Hextor
so, im in the same elo range as you. and im particularly good at mid and support. so, when i go into a ranked game, while i can fill any of the required roles, i feel as though i can carry better from my two aforementioned spots. as such, i'll enter and say "mid or support plx" but i think people should have one or two main roles, in which they have a variety of champs they play well, and then at least two champs or every role they dont main. when i get put top, i go tanky dps nidalee or nautalis, for example. so, i guess people dont have to be equally carry mode at every role, but rather have some champs that they can fill each role with, then have their main roles. in all reality, at a higher level, or if you have a team, you'll end up maining a role or two, which is simply the roles your going to be better at, just because you play them more. also, ask yourself this; if im at 1400 elo, and i main top, and i go against someone who merely filled the role because they had to, do i not have a higher chance of winning, and, by extension, would you not prefer to have the guy who called top go top, then the jack of all trades top?
also to those kids that say support is easy role, your stupid. some supports are easy to play, as are some mids, some jungles, some tops........ janna is a hard support to play by any means. she has skill shots, a shield that requires reflexes, and an ult that can win or lose games. not only are you responsible for protecting your ad carry in lane, and shutting down the other ad carry, you also have to have a presence in a team fight with often minimal defensive stats, and cc/ skillshots that you cant blindly fire into a team just for the dps. also warding, counterwarding, getting time on things like drag or baron.
i main support, and me and my ad carry run really aggressive lanes. whenever we see a soraka, we can almost always pull a first blood out of her. even though she is an easy champ, positioning, timing, and map awareness, and several other duties stated above are still all vital parts of one of the easier champs in the game.
point; the roles imparts difficulty, even if the champs are easy. sure you can passive lane v a passive lane, and do **** all through your lane except sustain the adc, but then again, is the role easy, or you not reaching it's potential?

When her beloved grandmother dies, a young girl's minister grandfather unwittingly sends her to live with an abusive father in this rich, wrenchingly honest southern novel infused with humor and heart.
Twelve-year-old Georgia Tate wishes she could stay home forever with her no-nonsense nana, her preacher granddaddy, and her sassy friend Ginger, celebrating church revivals and the Fourth of July with icy cold watermelon and all the deep-fried fish she can eat. She wishes her deadbeat daddy had never reappeared on the scene, and that Ginger hadn't blurted out the awful truth about Mama. But most of all, when Georgia Tate loses her nana to a sudden heart attack, she desperately wishes she could find a way to tell Granddaddy why she can't possibly leave Mississippi to move in with Daddy — about the things he does that make her feel so ashamed her mind takes her off to a faraway, made-up place.
With a vivid narrative voice and an extraordinary cast of characters, first-time author Gigi Amateau tells an unflinching and unforgettable tale of a sensitive girl caught in the trauma of incestuous abuse. But CLAIMING GEORGIA TATE is also a joyful story of survival — an ode to the solace of true family, the mercy of strangers, and the possibility of hope and healing.
Gigi Amateau says that she was first "introduced" to the character of Georgia Tate in the summer of 1996. "While writing her story over the next six years, I came to know her well and found we have a lot in common," she says. "We're both from Mississippi. We both love catfish, watermelon, and rainy days, and our granddaddies saved our lives — mine when I was fifteen and in a lot of trouble and hers when she was twelve and far away from home. Georgia Tate has taught me so much about hope, family, and claiming the life that is yours."

Alisande and others who have the Google Nexus 7 tablet
It's been a little while since you've rec'd it, Alisande, and I'm curious about your opinions of it now? I'm getting the itch (again) for a tablet for on-the-go uses, and the Nexus gets some good reviews.
So ... problems you've found with it? Steep learning curve? Memory/storage issues? Knowing what you know now about it, would you still get the Nexus, or would you go for a different tablet?
Oh -- and any "build" issues? I know there have been instances of the glass slightly lifting in a corner ...
I have played with one at Office Depot, but I really want to see the new 10" -- just to really see if I sense any usage differences. I have a feeling, tho, that I won't really want to be "lugging around" the bigger one.
I got the iPad last year for Christmas, got the Nexus 7 this year. I like both of them. But the Nexus is so nice for reading, so much lighter and easier to hold. No build problems with mine so far (I've had it about ten days).
Oh, one thing...the charger cord is tricky, which seems to be a big problem with these (I googled up Nexus 7 won't charge). I solved it by using the usb cord for my cell phone. The pins in the usb cord that comes with it might not be long enough or something, I don't know what causes it.
I'll echo Eileen101's words...I just LOVE my Nexus7!!! I'm not usually one to get the latest/greatest (still don't have a smartphone and my desktop is a 2005/Win XP flavor) but I wanted one of these when I first read about them. I gave in and bought one on July 27 and have ABSOLUTELY no regrets.
I expected the set up to be challenging but when I turned the Nexus 7 on it automatically walked me thru and I was up and running in no time.
I've had no issues with it.
I love the size and weight (or lack thereof). In portrait mode, one can hold it in one hand and use the other for navigating.
Mine's a 16 GB model and I still have over 12 GB free so storage is not an issue here. I have 15 books on it (there are more in my library but how many books does one need to have instantly available at one time?) and 50 or more crosswords (went a little crazy here).
When I tire of reading or crosswords, I have about 15 other games available - mostly word-type (no shoot-em-ups or war games).
Two days ago I added a GPS maps app. It's "found" me here at home but I've yet to test it on the road. At this point it's more for fun and to see if it works rather than a necessity for navigating about town.
I have no music or movies downloaded, not because I'm trying to save space but because I'm not interested.
Storing info on the Nexus7 has also allowed me to clean my purse of all those slips of paper many of us carry. You know, the ones with brands & clothing sizes a family member prefers, the dimensions of the picture frame needing a new picture, the best lipstick for staying color, etc.
I'd definitely buy another. In fact, I keep checking with my husband "Are you sure you don't want one?", "Do you want to do a crossword on mine?" etc. He's just beginning to use a computer so it may be awhile before he's ready to move on to a tablet.
I think your inclination not to want to lug around the larger one is spot on, Pammyfay. Good luck in your search - let us in on your decision.
I love mine, too. In fact, just yesterday after Thanksgiving dinner one of my stepgranddaughters and I were talking about how much we like our Nexuses. I have no complaints about it at all (and neither did she).
My daughter-in-law has a Kindle Fire, and she connects hers to the TV with a cable in order to watch Hulu, etc., shows on the TV. I don't think I can do that with my Nexus (although I may be wrong about that), but so far I haven't wanted to. :-)
I had been looking at the Nexus 7 but really was wanting a 10" tablet since my Vizio is 8" I am used to the bigger size.
I just got a fabulous deal online on the Asus TF300 Transformer with the dock keyboard. This is the same company that made the nexus and is virtually the same inside. Has the same glass IPS screen same quad core processor, everything but this one does have the SD card slot actually it has 2 a micro and a full size one on the tablet one on the dock.
It can be connected to the tv to stream movies etc also. I think the nexus can too if it has the hdmi slot which I think it does.
I have really enjoyed each and every one of my tablets, did I need them? NO but did I enjoy them ? YES!!
I spend more time with my tablet than any of my other electronics so to me it is worth it to have a quality product. My Vizio is still working fantastic and I have really been happy with it, my thought is to set it up for my husband with all his books and his solitaire and his email and let him use it instead of his old old lookbook reader that he uses every night. I have to say those lookbooks sure were a good buy for the price. He is still happy with it too. Not sure he will want to give it up LOL
In fact I just saw on today's black friday at at Big Lots they have my Vizio tablet for I think $149.
Everyone that I have talked to that got the Asus Nexus 7 has loved it. By the way the 10" version of the Nexus is not made by Asus it is made by Samsung so it will be a different tablet.
Could you tell me where you got that Asus TF300 Transformer with the dock keyboard? Even if the fabulous deal is not still available.
I'm going to be getting 'something" soon. What that "something" is, I'm not sure. I think I want the 10 inch screen...7 seems too small and will be hard to read?
Also, what do you think about the new google chromebooks?
One of them only costs 200 or 250, I think?

I got it through woot so it was a one time few hours offer that I happened to see.
I am not hearing good reports on the chromebooks, I would really read a lot before going that route.
I have had tablets in 7",8" and now the 10",I personally prefer a larger tablet I really like the 8",to me the 7 was a bit small.
But honestly that is a personal preference. I think going to a store and holding them is a good idea.
I have always had very good luck with refurbished tablets too, I would never have been able to tell it was not brand new.
I check sites like one sale a day, woot, slick deals, etc every night when the deals change. That's how to hit those deals.
In tablets the Asus brand has steadily had extremely high ratings which is important.
7 seems too small and will be hard to read?
I wouldn't do well with a smart phone (except maybe the large android) because they're too small for me to read. But I have no problem with the 7" Nexus. You can use your fingers to enlarge the text on the screen if necessary. That's my experience, in any case.
I love my Nexus7 and my favorite app is "Evernote". I keep all my notes, recipes, etc in it. I have it installed on my PC and Netbook also. I love the fact that I can Put info into my Evernotes using my keyboard on my PCs and then sync to my Nexus. In fact, I am making notes for Christmas gifts to make. I have photos of what I want to make, have hyperlinks to tutorials for the things I want to make.
I love the size of the Nexus. Easy to slip into my purse or side pocket of my car door.
Just bought a Nexus 7 16g tonight at Google for $199.
It's hard to choose a tablet what with all the
various models, sizes, brands, options etc. The raves here
and many other places convinced me that this is a
superior tablet which will fill my needs. (I tried to
buy it locally, but every store is sold out.)
I really love my Nexus7. Got it when they first came out. Mine does have a slight screen lift on the left side but it doesn't affect the performance and I think the issue was overblown. I got an Oberon leather case for it and you really can't tell now. My only regret is that now the 32GB are available. Mine is used as an eBook reader with over 3000 books on it. I have a few games. Eventually, I will get an iPad mini but the cost without retina display was a deal breaker for me. I did get an OTG cable so that I can watch movies etc should I run out of space but I still have 6GB. I have a few very quick basic games and some animated wall paper.
Holly -- tell me about the OTG cable, pls? How does it work? Like, what hooks up to what? I have seen mentions of it in reviews, but I haven't yet had time to go Web searching for the basic overview. (Probably cuz I spend too much time on the Kitchen Table board!)
Best place for free kindle ebooks is pixel of ink, sign up for the daily list, it comes to your email daily around 3 and has several different types of free books, and the selection is very good.
They are not classics they are current.

Big Lots flyer lists the Vizio Vtab like mine is on for $149.99 till 12-1-12 here is their info from the flier

that vizio has honeycomb not ice cream sandwich.
There are several websites that have free books on them daily. They may be free for only a few hours so I check these sites several times a day. Kindle Nation Daily, Pixel of Ink, Books on the Blog, Daily Cheap Reads, eReader IQ, Add all Books, Daily Cheap Reads are a few of these sites. My collection has taken a couple of years to amass. I'm a little picky about subject matter and look at the reviews before downloading. I do buy books as well. I find many of the free books lead me to others in the series and many new independent authors are really quite good. Some have formatting issues and I have passed on those.
My OTG cable came from Amazon.(~$6) Actually Hong Kong but shipping was fast and free. It attaches to the mini USB port on the Nexus. You will need the app Nexus Media Importer that was a couple of dollars. You attach a memory stick to it and can play music stream movies from it, read books that aren't on the Nexus etc. It is compact only about four inches long. If you decide on one make sure it is Nexus compatible in the description. You can get generic OTG cables for about two dollars but I didn't want to take the chance. Incidentally, they fit the kindle as well but I haven't used it yet.

Fortunately, the Milk
From Library Staff
After it takes a very long time for their dad to return from the store with the milk, a young boy and his sister are treated to a tale of how that milk helped him to escape aliens, pirates, vampires, and more.
From the critics
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
The book's unnamed Dad tells the most inventive story ever rather than admit he dallied while running out to get milk for his children's breakfast cereal. It's the type of random, convoluted, logic-defying yarn only a child is imaginative enough to invent, and it's excellently, amusingly right up its readers' alleys. Nicely illustrated and perfectly fun.
A quick sample:
"The globby aliens went a very pale green. The pirates, shiny-black-hair-men, and the piranhas looked at them, puzzled, seeking some kind of explanation, as did the wumpires.
" 'If two things that are the same thing touch,' proclaimed the volcano god, 'then the whole Universe shall end. Thus sayeth the great and unutterable Splod.'
" 'How does a volcano know so much about transtemporal metascience?' asked one of the pale green aliens.
" 'Being a geological formation gives you a lot of time to think,' said Splod. 'Also, I subscribe to a number of learned journals.' "
And that doesn't even mention the time travel, hot-air-balloon-flying stegosaurus professor, or intergalactic dinosaur police.
What a Fantastic Family Read! We all enjoyed this wonderful tale. My children, aged 6-11, couldn't wait for nightly story time when we got to read the next chapter! I wish it were easy to find more books like this one to keep the kids attention! My son (6) who doesn't like to read couldn't get enough of this one! I would, and have, recommended this book to Everyone looking for a good family read.
There is no milk for cereal in the home so dad goes out to the corner store to get some. He is gone a verrrry long time. When he returns he tells an outrageous story of why he was late. It includes aliens, time traveling, pirates, Mayan gods, vampires and dinosaurs. The bottle of milk saves the day more than once in his story. And no matter what happened, the milk makes it home safely in the end.
I adored this story because it is what you would call a tall tale--a story made up on the spot by grown ups late at night and told to the children. It was obviously utter nonsense, but who cares. Seeing where Dad would take the story next was a lot of fun. And the way Gaiman weaved a bottle of milk throughout was a nice touch.
The quirky and fun illustrations throughout the book help speed the story along. My only negative comment about the illustrations is that Mom is drawn to look like a 35 year old nag and Dad looks like an 18 year old fun only kind of guy (this was a strange characterization).
This book is advertized for grades 3-7. I think kids of all these grades would love this story. It is a quick read making it perfect for reluctant readers.
Great fun, and a wonderful companion piece to Dr. Seuss' "To think that I saw it on Mulberry Street".
If you were wondering how to make up stories to tell your family and friends, this little book provides all the lessons you will need.
This book really made me smile.
NYPL Staff Pick
Returning from the store in time for breakfast can be tricky when facing vengeful aliens, volcanic sacrifices, and a time-traveling stegosaurus . . . Hang on to that milk!

Returning from the store in time for breakfast can be tricky when facing vengeful aliens, volcanic sacrifices, and a time-traveling stegosaurus . . . Hang on to that milk!
A funny quirky adventure through time. Would love to read this aloud with a class.
How far would you go to make sure you had milk in your refrigerator? Might you outsmart a spaceship full of aliens looking to remodel your planet? Would you dare face off against bloodthirsty pirates? How about climbing into a time-traveling hot air balloon invented by a genius stegosaurus? Fortunately, the Milk, by Neil Gaiman has these things and so much more.

QuotesAdd a Quote
I said good-bye to all the dinosaurs. I thanked Professor Steg for saving my life. "Not at all," she said. "We were both fortunate that you had the milk with you. It is not every container of milk that saves the world, after all." "That was me that saved the world, " I said, "Not the milk." The space dinosaurs all had their picture taken holding the milk and smiling at the camera. "What are you going to do with the milk?" they asked me, "Are you going to put it in a museum?" "No, I am not," I told them. "I am going to give it to my children for their breakfast cereal. and possibly I will pour some in my tea." - See more at: http://jocolibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/show/1267245036_fortunately,_the_milk#sthash.C5hLd5oV.dpuf

The Global Warming Costs of the Iraq War
The Global Warming Costs of the Iraq War
Oil Change International has released an startling report today quantifying both the greenhouse gas emissions of the Iraq War and the opportunity costs involved in fighting war rather than climate change.
Here's a few the interesting (and disturbing) facts found in the report:
- Total US spending on the Iraq war could cover all of the global investments in renewable power generation that are needed between now and 2030 in order to halt current warming trends.
- Just the $600 billion that Congress has allocated for military operations in Iraq to date could have built over 9000 wind farms (at 50 MW capacity each), with the overall capacity to meet a quarter of the country's current electricity demand.
- In 2006, the US spent more on the war in Iraq than the whole world spent on investment in renewable energy.
