So what the heck do you say/do at this point? They're pagan (very earth centered too, which is confusing me so much with this issue), read Mothering mag, cosleep, GD, extended BF/CLW.......so WHY would they still choose to let a doctor cut off a part of their baby?! I have been avoiding talking to her, because I'm really upset about it, but I know THATS not helping/changing anything, except the fact that I'm feeling pretty friendless. Is there anything more I can do? I know people who have circed babies/kids, but that was all before I even met them, this feels so different to me, like I have to protect this tiny baby but am unable to, and it seriously breaks my heart. I don't want to give up our friendship, but at the same time, I can never look at her the same if she does decide to do this, I mean its not like someone choosing to FF or whatever that I can look past.....its cutting off a part of a babies body! Ok, now I'm just preaching to the choir....thanks for listening though....I guess I'm an intactivist now....
They know they're not working on logic anyway. What they're working on is feeding the bruised ego of the father. He's circed and he wants his boys to be circed and that's that.
|So what the heck do you say/do at this point?
"If you have your child circed, I will not be able to look at you without feeling like puking. So feel free to lose my phone number if you decide to circ"
I can't associate with someone who chops off body parts of babies knowing all the facts. I don't care how good of a 'friend' they are. They are an abusive parent. I don't associate with child abusers.
Ask her if she'd give a daughter breast implants to look like her? Will they be buying contacts for the baby if the baby's eyes are a different color than the father's?
Everyone's genitals look different. Circ'd or intact. Why people feel the need to "match" is beyond me. Papai is right, this is about the father's bruised ego.
Tell the mother that this is her chance to STOP the cycle of mutilation in her family.
I would say exactally what I have said to two good friends of mine.

I have two intact sons and both of them look different, that excuse is just so freakin stupid. I can't inagine knowing better and doing it anyway so all the penises in the house will match and of course they won't anyway. They'll all just be mutilated.
Obviously I have no advice but I definitely understand how hard this is for you.
I would never remain friends with someone who chopped up their baby to assauge the ego of a grown man
I'm convinced that it means that those fathers cannot confront the reality of what they endured as infants. If they perpetuate the practice onto their own sons, then it justifies it. So very sad, but it's about their emotional weakness and vulnerability.
It is not about matching daddy. It is about patching daddy's ego..you know that nagging little feeling - how would it feel if I had foreskin...
I really do not have advice to you - me personally, if someone abuses her child that way after knowing all facts - bye bye. I could not be near. But that's me. Hopefully you find a solution best for you.
The other friend of mine really surprises me. She seems quite crunchy and I was very shocked when I offered some information and she said they'd decided to do it having looked into it. I just didn't know what to say so assumed they'd done it and said nothing. A while after he was born she mentioned they hadn't been able to do it because he might have to have some surgery on to correct a minor birth defect and they might need to foreskin for extra skin. I again offered her some info and she said she was intested in hearing 'a woman's perspective'. I sent her the Northrup article and we haven't talked about it since since there was some blushing involved in the conversation. I would very very very dissapointed if they did it in the end since they seem like such loving caring people, just the type to NOT have it done.
People who have it done despite having the information disgust me. Thankfully everyone bar the friend mentioned above that we know in the US have had girls. It's a non-issue with the friends and family in Europe thank God! I know it will come up eventually and I don't know what I'll do then.
Like another poster above I became even more against circ. once I had my own son. It goes against every fiber of being a mother and wanting to protect your child to let them go through a painful operation for cosmetic purposes. It will be hard to respect any of my friends that do it since we DO have access to the information and should know better.
I would ask how her dh enjoys his wax jobs "down there" and how wearing that ice pack down his pants 24/7 is going since he obviously must do everything possible to "match" his older son as closely as he possibly can.
Actually, in all seriousness... I would tell her about my dh who is VERY glad that although his father is circumcised, his father was man enough to leave his son's genitals alone. It's nice to have that bit of info from the intact son of a circumcised man's perspective to counter this particular "look-alike" argument. Dh is also glad that he wasn't circumcised to look like most of his friends when he was growing up. They just accepted that their penises were different just like their hair and eye color and face shapes were all different. I would imagine it would be the same way with siblings (dh is an only child)
love and peace.
: Circumcision can never be undone :
I'm convinced that it means that those fathers cannot confront the reality of what they endured as infants. If they perpetuate the practice onto their own sons, then it justifies it. So very sad, but it's about their emotional weakness and vulnerability. I'm so glad that I married the kind of man who would say, "It ends with me. Not My Son!"
To the OP, I'd tell her this:
While I may not have any sons, I do have a daughter and looking at the appearance of her labia lately and knowing it's now "trendy" for some women go to cosmetic surgeons for "labia reduction surgery" to make a "prettier" vagina, I think I will sincerely look into this so the shape of her labia matches the shape of mine.
You know... kind of use more forceful sarcasm to put a mirror in the face of her. The tragic thing is, it IS legal for adult women to have this surgery by choice, yet it's illegal to "sculpt" the shape of your minor daughter's vagina. Minor males? They don't get the same protection!
I'd say to her: Your reasons are shallow and feed into the insecurities of your husband and do nothing more to pet his ego than protect your sons. Honestly, I will not be able to feel at ease around you if you go through with this mutilation.
I know it SOUNDS easier for me to give you advice to say to your friend, but quite honestly, I'd be just as comfortable and even more comfortable saying it my friend who wanted to do this. The mutilation HAS to stop! And if I lose a friend, she isn't a type of person I want as one.
I hope she comes around!!!!
Having a son, and seeing how perfect he is as he was born...it's just more obvious that circ is WRONG!

|she said shes read it all, and watched videos, and even seen her 1st DS have it done
, sounds like your friends' son has hypospadias maybe? There is a site about it, I think somewhere in the links up top. It is recommended that for minor cases they don't do the corrective surgery, at least not until the boy is grown. And there are ways to do it without sacrificing the whole foreskin, it's a European method (of course!). You might want to find that site and send your friend to it, not from an anti/pro circ argument perspective, but from a "get the best treatment for his condition" perspective.
I would say exactally what I have said to two good friends of mine.
"If you have your child circed, I will not be able to look at you without feeling like puking. So feel free to lose my phone number if you decide to circ"
I can't associate with someone who chops off body parts of babies knowing all the facts. I don't care how good of a 'friend' they are. They are an abusive parent. I don't associate with child abusers.
.but she kept saying she was leaving it up to her DH, who wanted them to "look alike",
especially if she's so "informed" about the reasons not to do it, how can she argue with that?
it's hard when you've got one good friend where you live. i've been through that and i honestly don't know if i would have been strong enough to ditch my only cool mama support over any one issue. luckily she had a girl and was anti-circ so i didn't have to worry about it.
good luck!
They do so many other AP things for their baby, (and we're in california, too- what is with this state this week?), but on this, they just will not budge, and I cannot understand why.

My suspition is that she can't face explaining to DS1 why she allowed this to happen to him, and is hoping that by circ'ing DS2 as well they will all live out the rest of their lives in denile.
If I'm correct, she must first allow herself to fell grief for the pain she caused her DS. She can not stand up for DS2 without admitting that what happened to DS1 was wrong and that she failed him. Those of us who are mommies know how horrible we feel anytime we think we failed to protect our DC.

yes, Fi, YES!! thank you! that is exactly what I was thinking!! and thanks for the hugs and stuff, this is really hard because shes pretty much my only friend in the area, we are training to become LLL leaders together (our current leader wants to schedule our meetings with her together, work together etc), but at the same time, just like I can't be friendly with people who hit their children, there is no way I can act like everything is ok if she is making a decision to let someone take a scalpel to her child. This is so frusturating.....
That "you'll understand when you have a son" is a load of bs. If ANYTHING, when you have a son you will feel MORE strongly about protecting his right to be intact. Honestly, I was an intactavist since I found out I was pregnant and researched circ 6 years ago. I had two girls in a row...then, when my son was born I felt MORE strongly than ever about circ.
Having a son, and seeing how perfect he is as he was born...it's just more obvious that circ is WRONG!
I have a very good friend who circed her lil boy, we met when the boys were older. I don't think what I would have said would have made a difference. I know she worries how I feel about it might affect our friendship and I Iunderstand that. I love her to death: :l, yes I wish she would not have done it along with every other lil boy out there, but that was what they deciede to do. I hope that our boys can learn from each other. I think you can still be friends with somebody who feels differently than you, hell you never know what your friendship might influnce them to think say or do in the future. Friendship is about loving and supporting each other as well as learnign from one another.
THIS is why I want to have all boys, does that make me weird?
I thank God every day that I was given 2 little boys. I love little girls, but there are many who protect them, but who would circumcise a boy. I know that boys born to me will be protected and I celebrate that.

i've always loved the work of illustrator sanna annukka for the way that it weaves her finnish roots and interest in nature and folklore into her style. today we're so pleased to share with you a look into her 3-story victorian house that is a 15-minute walk from the brighton seafront, which she shares with her equally as talented graphic designer husband, jasper goodall. don't miss all the images after the jump, and click here for additional, full-sized images. {thanks sanna!} -anne
[above: Vintage wallhanging above bed is made by Kainuun Pirttu. It was made in the region of Finland (Kainuu) where I spent most my childhood summers. African mask bought during recent travels to South Africa. The little woven rug is from Sweden, purchased on ebay.]
Victorian marble fireplace with original tiles. Above the fire place is an old Whiskey advertising mirror that would have originally been situated in an Irish pub. The scary mask is from our travels to South Africa.
Walls are covered with framed vintage travel posters. A mexican rug with Aztec motifs covers the sofa. Reindeer rugs we pick up from the harbour market in Helsinki.
The kitchen is awaiting a complete renovation. Plan is to build a double story height glass roof to bring extra light into that part of the house. Jasper and I want to custom design all the cupboards and work surfaces too. Currently the kitchen is an eclectic mix of free standing kitchen furniture.
CLICK HERE for the rest of sanna and jasper's peek after the jump!
Some more Finel items on display.
More vintage prints cover the walls. Above fireplace is my Maidens of the Midnight Sun print. Reindeer seat pads are from Lapland.
Jasper and I love this copper boiler, the hot bath water spurts out of it's nozzle and is quite a novelty feature! The penguin we bought from an antique shop in Brighton. It used to be part of a fountain at a zoo.
I have a strange marble basin in the bedroom. It was there before Jasper and I moved in. I tiled it with a mix of different vintage tiles to bring color to that corner of the room. The lampshade is vintage enamel made by Finel. I like to collect decorative tins/canisters and stick houseplants in them which is what you can see on the table.
The lampshade is made entirely of corrugated cardboard by talented designer Tabatha Bargh.
My studio has a mezzanine floor which i'm supposed to use as a relaxing reading area but it currently filled with boxes! The chest of drawers was bought from ebay, perfect to hide lots of bits and bobs in although I can never remember what drawer I put what in and so end up having to open a dozen of them before I find what i'm looking for :D I like to keep visual moodboards so I pin anything up that triggers some inspiration. The print behind my computer is one of my latest screen prints 'Spirits of the North.'
I love all the wood, the Mexican textiles, the bright yellows, the tile…looooovve
Love love love it, of course. I have the Owl Keeper print in my dining room!
The plants in decorative tins idea is a great one!
Very creative space and I love the fur rug in front of the fireplace!
Boo to the fur! I think it makes a space/people/etc. look archaic. Plus, it's really cruel. Animals are skinned alive, anally electrocuted, or strangled for their fur. From a design perspective, the texture of fur maybe beautiful, but please go faux! The coat looks much better on the original owner!
What a great mix of old and new, Scandinavian and oriental!
The Bathroom is my favorite. I can imagine soaking in that tub for hours!
I love this. The place looks cosy but so cool at the same time. They seem like great people!
ha, it's wonderful, it's amazing, i'm completely smitten. many many things to love, the copper boiler, the reindeer skins, the Finel everythings, the vintage travel posters, ALL of it really.
Love Anna so it's no surprise that she lives in such a wonderful home, I like that it's achievable too, not filled with crazy pieces I could never afford. LOVE it.
is that an actual built in fireplace or a freestanding fireplace in the living room? i love the look of it, very old and rustic.
What a beautiful, inspirational place!
I may be missing something, but how do you keep plants in tins and avoid the tin getting all rusty? I would love to do this but am worried about ruining my vintage tins! Any suggestions?
Reindeer skins/furs are a traditional Finnish item. Please stop imposing your assumptions re: means of production and cultural place (unless you happen to have observed the Finnish reindeer industry personally).
This place is ace on using great travel decor and colorful metal accessories to accent basic furniture (see nightstand and tv stand, shelving in bath). I also collect colorful enamel objects, I love to see it integrated throughout the home. I am officially inspired!
so much character! i love all the patterns they've used everywhere.
This place is great! I specially love the bathroom sink and tiles! Very creative.
Man, how many reindeer need to die for the sake of their interior design?
Everything looks great, specially the kitchen, but too sad for the poor dead animals in the floor.
Can I ask where you got the white and orange tea towel in the kitchen? I love it!
That little wooden calendar in the kitchen is adorable! Where can I buy it?
those look like camping style tin cups in the kitchen! the variety of designs is so kewl!! i wonder where these were purchased..
I know that Finnish and Swedish Sami people use the reindeer the same way that Inuit use the seal. That is, the animals are the main source of meat, income, warmth and tradition within the culture. That's not to say I agree with it, however. Aside from that, the house is BEAUTIFUL! Love the brilliant prints on the walls, tins and kitchenware. Very lovely.
I love the southwest feel, with the colors, and prints. Its gorgeous!
Adorable little yellow chairs, I'm sure they're from some lovely little antique shop, but I'm coveting them a bit over here in DC!
Oh my word! You just rocked my world. Sanna is one of m favorite illustrators and her husband is Jasper Goodall! What an amazing duo!
I want the fireplace with the bar mirror!! so beautiful!
yeah ok. THIS house tickles my style spots.
That fireplace has such a cool look. We have the same pub mirror in my parents basement. Kinda makes me want to steal it away from them!
I would love to have all of those colorful worldly accessories for my home. I am going to start looking for things now, because this home completely inspired me!
Truly, THIS shows individual style. Absolutely stylish and unique!
i too support those who are anti-fur! jessica said it: it's a cruel, cruel industry! those furs are very bad, bad energy in your home!! i live in canada and sealskins are a traditional hunt and home accessory, but it doesn't make it ethical and right! if you didn't do slaughter and skin it yourself, then don't support this dark, evil industry by buying furs and skins!!!!
the yellow kitchen towel is by Marimekko. Most of the colourful enamel thingies and printed items are from 60s- 70s, and are Finnish made.
Such cool, singular style. One of the most memorable house tours I've come across.
I love this house. All of it! The enamelware and all it's bold color and shapes gives this home such a wonderful feel. Nicely done!!!
sah-wooooon. lovely
doesn't get much better than this!
This is a beautiful home. I hope all the naysayers would have the balls to rip apart a stranger who invited them into their home or showed them hospitality. Treat people nicely, too.
i love the travel posters on the wall. great character!
Shut up! I cannot believe Sanna is married to Jasper. That's too much talent in one couple. Far, far, too much. I want the orange chairs in their kitchen. Bad.
You had many wonderful light fixtures, where do you find such great gems?
LOVE this place, so relaxing
(ditto'ing Kersten) Any info on the wood calendar in the kitchen?
While I love most of the decorating in this home but I have to agree with Tara. The dead animal skins definitely bring a bad energy into your home. If it wasn't for those, the home would be perfect.
This is just lovely, very Brighton. Brighton is a perfect candidate for a 'city guide' Interesting architecture, shops and the English seaside.
what a beautiful home! such nice touches of bright color about, with a deep sense of serenity. very joyous.
i was wondering where you found the little parisian cafe table and chairs in the kitchen? they are so charming and i see them everywhere, but never the place of procurement! any direction would be most appreciated. merci!
i love her sense of the graphic and pattern and color. this place is awesome.
Awesome and incredibly inspirational! Where in the world can one find that calendar?
One of my favorite sneak peeks ever! I could move right in.
very cute home. Nice vintage finds and details, i love the sink and the tiles and the curved hallway. My kind of place!
Great, interesting and comfortable space. I love it.
New favorite!
I love it – I have been coveting those enamel Kaj Franck lamps, and am so happy to see one in such a beautiful home. You display your collections and integrate them into your home so effortlessly, and the result is a beautiful home that feels really loved.
NB: I am a little surprised at some of the comments about the pelts, since there have been a lot of other sneak peeks featuring sheepskins, and no one has made a peep. At least the skins featured in this home carry cultural significance, and weren't just purchased out of a bin at Ikea.
Loved everything about it. The colors, the combinations. every nook and corner of the house gives such a cozy look. The bold colors really do make a definitive impact.
My husband and I are huge fans of Sanna's work… and her home is lovely to boot. Cozy, personal, and full of wonderful things to look at!
i love the shoes in the first picture. does anyone know where to find something similar?
Ahh! I love Jasper Goodall, so it was amazing so see where he lives (:
Bar far my favorite sneak peak to date!
I love the way there is so much color playing off of the white backdrop so that everything is both light and cozy.
LOVE all the prints on the pots, tins and tiles around your home.
When can I come visit?
Sanna is one of my ALL time favorite artists/illustrators. It's wonderful to see Scandinavian heritage, craft and folk traditions reflected in her home as well. THANK YOU Sanna! I'm so inspired, and would like to bring more of my home country Sweden into my home as well.
I know I am very late but I would love to know about the big gray tiles in the bathroom and where you got them. Beautiful home…love all the patterns and tile.
This is a gorgeous home with a huge exception of the fur/skins. It is disturbing. I could not agree with Jessica more in her original posting. Many people have gorgeous homes without incorporating and supporting the very dark industry of buying furs/skins. It does bring a negative energy into the home. I love everything else about it though.
I adore her work… her house is no surprise at all. Perfectly gorgeous!!
Yet another wonderful sneak peek. Love the colors in the top photo, love the enamel pots in the kitchen, love the vintage bathroom tiles, love, love love! :)
i LOVE sanna annuka's designs! i am a huge fan. i have her marimekko towels in my kitchen too :)
Horray for fur! Mmmm… fur…
I want to lend my support to this beautiful home and the couple who have shared their home with us. I am surprised and a bit shocked how harsh people are being. How petty. I too have seen lots of cow hides and sheep skins all over the place, no one objected those. I can't stand people politicking and getting legalistic regarding their own personal values when someone has been very generous and shown their home.
All the haters should be deleted. I live in a cold climate. Sheepskins are a must in our home. I love this website. I can travel and view beautiful homes and dream about mine one day. Thank you.
lovely home except for the fur.
Love this!! Such a cute and lovely home!
Ah such a beautiful home! I aspire to have a place like this in Brighton one day.
i love the unique collections in this beautiful den of life's loves. who has a copper boiler in their bathroom?
The bathroom! Oh, the bathroom!
I have the world smallest,scariest, dampest bathroom. The house didn't have one originally,its an afterthought on a Vicky terrace. I'm hugely envious of nice bathrooms..one day!!
Beautiful home! – minus the deer skins!! As for some people's comments re sheep skins/cow hides, and how no one ever complains about them- I personally don't see any reason, culturally or climatically, in this day and age that the use of animal skins/furs for floor embellishments is necessary or even warranted. That being said it is a gorgeous home in every other way.
Its a lovely interior. But i would say its only Sanna's place, nothing recalls J.G.
Let's remember that furs and leathers may last many generations. Inheriting or even buying them second-hand doesn't directly support the fur industry and investing in them first-hand often eliminates the need to consume future replacement items. Considering the fact that the plastics industry, as well as others, are arguably dark and "evil" (I bet the fur-sensitive have plenty of plastic in their homes), it seems silly and easy to evangelize about fur versus the many dark energies we come across every day inside and outside our homes. I'm not saying there are no lines to be drawn, but such lines are personal, subjective, and it comes off as tactless and/or needlessly confrontational to phrase your preference in any way other than strictly personal.
I'd like to add that the energy in this home seems GREAT!

I don't have to say much as the others have said it all - perfect shade of red for anyone / everyday / newbies to red lippies. It does have a hint of orange to it but i mostly find this attribute when it fades. When it's fresh on, all i see is the nice cherry yet subdued red which instatntly brightens my face. I love everything about this lipstick. I'm NC20 for reference.

So here's what you need to know about this shade - I got it because I wanted to be trendy at the time and do the "Taylor Swift" thing where she did the red lips and the cat eyes with liquid black mascara, but I felt like I couldn't pull off red and was anxious about purchasing a lip color. So the friendly girl at the Macy's MAC counter (who had incidentally picked my favorite lipstick of all time two years back from when I went to my high school prom) put this one on me.
Here are the pros - I am not a very bold make-up person I like neutrals and I wasn't ready for a cherry red. This red has a slight orange tint and has the ability to go on very sheer or be built up heavily and it stains nicely so that when it does wear off its not like you never were wearing lipstick.
Here are the cons - The taste is AWFUL! It is like eating a crayon and it smells that way too. I don't really feel it stays very long but I also just apply and go without any effort to make it stick. I usually tend to suggest a 3 to 4 layer process if one is going to be serious about wearing their lipstick. (reminder: 1.moisturize; if necessary 2.line 3.lipstick 4.glaze)
Anywho! I can't stand the taste so I will probably re-shop when I run-out and find a new brand. If not well, beauty is pain my ladies.

I'm loving this colour! It's perfect to wear everday/casually, it's a bit darker and more subtle compared to ruby woo. I would say it's a good beginner red lipstick for people who are still hesistant to try brighter reds. Out of the red lipsticks I tried on at MAC (ruby woo, russian red & ladybug) I would say that this red was the most suitable for my fair asian skin tone

Nice sheer red, feels supple on the lips, but it slids around too much for me to really love it. I have to be careful how much I apply, and how much I rub my lips together, or else it ends up seeping out over my lip line.

I am rating this lipstick a 5 stars because this is the best shade of red I have ever worn. This works well on every skin type including fair skin types. Since it has a yellowish undertone, the color is not overly red. The only thing that annoys me sometimes is how sheer it gets since it is a lustre lipstick. It is also a buildable color.

I believe this lipstick is best suited for yellow or olive based skin tones. I'm a fair skinned yellow based skin tone (fair asian skin) and this is the best red I've used thus far. Russian Red is better for neutral or cool toned women, or dark skin. But Russian Red looked too bold on me. I tend to shy away from red, worried I will look too clownish. But this lipstick, with one coat, is not too bold but gives a great color payoff and beautiful luster. Two coats or more obviously makes it more bold but the creaminess and slight luster keeps it from looking too severe.
The sales lady said it had orange tones in it. I have mid color berry lips and I bring out the pink in many lipsticks. So while I could see a little bit of orange, it also came out a little pink for me because of my natural lip color. But the little bit of orange (pretty subtle) gives the lipstick a little warmth, which compliments warm skin tones. I can imagine this lipstick still looking great on fair skin cool toned gals if they paired it with the right blush!

I usually find it hard to wear red, it always somehow clashes with my skin but lady bug is my perfect red. It's not a fussy red, I don't wear lipliner with it and can just slick it on and head out the door. If I ever run out of it, I would probably repurchase, however I'm not a huge lipstick fan so idk if that will ever happen lol.

I have been searching for a red that is perky, subtle and a great day-time wear. I feel comfortable wearing this to work and still have that powerful, pulled-together feeling that accompanies red lipstick. It's on the tomato side, but has a warmth to it, almost berry-ish in lower lighting. Either way, I feel I can completely avoid the "clown" look that I felt when I put on Russian Red (and I LOVE matte lipstick). Best part is, I don't have to apply with a mirror, or even wear liner for it to look polished. Better alternative to bright gloss, with a similar wear time. Very moisturizing.

This is my favorite red lipstick I've used up to now. I think it works very well with my light-med olive skin tone. The lasting power could be better but the moisturizing power is awesome. The color goes on sheer and is very easy to build. Looks great either way. This is a great starter red or shy girl color. This color always looks good and never overdone. I will def repurchase.

"betrayal and revenge is a dish best served cold"
since i have mirgrains now i have to listen to books it was a wonderful book the twist and turns thr betrayal
when utread became a slave
you actually get a voice so you dont have to wonder what words are in there natural dielict
the danes battle to concure england
love this series of novels i hope bernard keeps writing them
I was educated into oblivion but have overcome it and am having a wonderful life
"I didn't know I liked war?"
For over a year I've looked for books on western culture about England, Scandinavia, the movement of people, what it was like, and what character of people shaped our history. I've listened to so many books and then I found Cornwell's series. This is the best of this series so far... however, I think that same thing at the end of each book.
Uhtred's rumination on Alfred's character and the "aha" moment as he credited Alfred worthy of honoring because Alfred was under the authority of a God who demanded the best of him and who demanded that he always strive to become a better person.
Gisela is my favorite. She is strong, knows what she wants, and what a gutsy, stealthy thing she did in shadowing along to conquer the fortress -- unbeknownst to Uhtred. She knew Uhtred would return against all odds.
Uhtred has an ironic side that equals Guthred's sweet side.
Great series
I just achieved App Scholar!! 1000 hours in 1 yr 7 mo and 10 days!!! I never thought I would make it this far!! Thanks Audible
"Another great story!!!!"
Uhtred finds himself back in the fold again in book three.. The bad part is he never sees it coming.To be betrayed by a trusted friend is the worst kind of betrayal but you cant keep Utred down.For two years he is a slave and then you see what kind of warrior Uhtred is.NEVER GIVE UP UHTRED...
" I have my mind... & a mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge." -T.L.
"The Best series B. Cronwell wrote in my Opinion"
The only main reason I would wait a bit longer is to see if audible 1. gets all the series unabridged & close to one narrator... otherwise, the series so far, at Book 6 is ridiculously good if u are into strong medieval war, early Lord/Knight 'dark ages' after the Roman Empire...
I don't think I have to add anything for anyone who already knows his style of historical fiction . Ultred continues his 'blood feud' with the narration of John Lee, that gives it +'s over. I love the analogy of Tee 'nailed god' as it was described at the time compared to Odin, Ragnarock, Valhalla, & Thor left religious theology.
"Fantastic narration for a Fantastic book"
This is the first Cornwell book I've listened to. I loved books 1 and 2 in print. Tom Sellwood's narration is incredibly well done. The accents he uses really bring life to the characters. My only disappointments were to learn that book 4 is not on Audible and that Tom Sellwood is not narrating any other books in the series.
"Wish they were all unabridged!"
This is a fantastic epic story. Tom Sellwood really makes the story come to life. I only wish he narrated the whole series and that it was all available unabridged. I would gladly pay for it.
"Perfect narrator for a fantastic story."
I read the first book in the Saxon series (The Last Kingdom) on my Kindle and have enjoy Pale Horseman and Lords of the North with Tom Sellwood as narrator. The Irish is strong and clear enough that you don't miss a word. And with this book you feel that you're hearing a Klingon tale (yes, I'm a trekkie with a doctoral degree and I also read lots of classical literature and no I can't stand Klingons per se but these stories are great!) WIth this narrator's pounding great expression and the narrative which sounds like an epic tale told by a scaeld, you get into the story so much you don't even mind the gore. (I'm not into gore, and there's lots of it, but it fits the time and isnt' just there to shock.) I've followed this character through this and now the next book: I've never liked him but I've always cared about him and respected him and been eager to see what he'd choose to do or have to cope with next. You can't have a good epic without lots of deus ex machina, but it's always believable. I love the historical notes Bernard Cornwell includes at the end. The themes of the books are timeless. Lastly, the anti-Christian theme is actually not offensive to me, a deeply committed conservative Baptist Bible-believing Christian involved in ministry, because I know enough history (and life) to know that much of what has been called Christian through the years has been a travesty and perversion created by institutions and power-seeking individuals just trying to use the name of Jesus Christ to achieve their own ends as Simon Magus tried to in the book of Acts. Sadly, the "church-falsely-so-called" has had a disastrous effect on people who would have at least considered Christ if they'd really understood the Gospel message. Thus I see this author as not presenting an anti-Christian message at all--and he very fairly includes some significant characters who are good examples of believable Christians--but rather pointing a finger at the damage done by counterfeits. EM
"Excellent book"
I have thoroughly enjoyed this series. Bernard Cornwell is an excellent writer. He is a dedicated researcher and is an excellent writer of battles. I would recommend this book very highly. My wife read the first book of this series and loved it.
"History in a action packed story"
This is a well written story about the life of a Saxon/Danish warrior in the mid to late 8oo. The story has a good pace not to fast not to slow. It really did give a good account historically of what is was to be alive in that time and gave a very good layout of the social structure of the time without coming across as a history book. I wish I had read the two books that proceed this one (even though they were each only 5 hours in length). I will certainly look into the other series of books he has, (The Sharpe Series is one) although audible.com doesn't have all the books that would complete these series which is a real pain in the you know what. Just a good listen.
"Fantastic Story, find a new reader..."
This is a great story and following in what is become an excellent series. Cornwell's other series - Grail Quest is also very good. I downloaded this one in anticipation of continuing the enjoyment of the first two read by Jamie Glover (especially since it was unabridged), but was sadly disappointed to hear the reader chosen to follow the first two. His accent is pure 1870 London and completely distracts from the tone and feel of a story set in the late 800's when Dane and Saxon vied for control of England. The reader of the first two (which unfortunately were in abridged format, but great nevertheless) gave a feeling of being there in battle with Uthred - this time one has the feeling of being in a pub in London waiting for another round... :-)
I am in the process of downloading the abridged version of the book at the moment so that I can continue the story. That said, this is a great series and I HIGHLY recommend all of the Cornwell books, the Grail Quest and Saxon Shores series in particular.

Gas prices fell for the eighth consecutive day Sunday, AAA reported earlier this week.
"The price of oil has not seen dramatic increases in the past couple of weeks and motorists are reaping the benefits," said Mark Jenkins, spokesman, AAA-The Auto Club Group.
"Gas prices are at their lowest level this time of year since 2009, which will entice people to take a road trip this spring."
The national average price for a gallon of gasoline is nearly 3 cents cheaper than a week ago, but 18 cents more expensive than last month.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service reports that family-owned farms remain the backbone of the agriculture industry.
The latest data come from the Census of Agriculture farm typology report and help shine light on the question, "What is a family farm?"
"As we wrap up mining the 6 million data points from the latest Census of Agriculture, we used typology to further explore the demographics of who is farming and ranching today," said Statistics Division Director Hubert Hamer.
The bats didn't exactly get rolling for neither Oak Ridge nor the Rockwood Lady Tigers on Monday afternoon.
With neither team able to light up the scoreboard, Oak Ridge drove in one run for the 1-0 victory.
The two traded blows throughout the first five innings with out a score.
Rockwood, who pitched senior Baylee Young in its last game against Oliver Springs, went with the youngest of its three-way pitching rotation by starting freshman Sydnee Treadway.
Roane County's Braxton Fritz, Morgan Crass, Aubree Burns and Ava Conway helped the FC Alliance 06 Girls Black U9 team a Shamrock Cup over the weekend after coming out of Chattanooga victorious. The team outscored their opponents 43-7 over the course of its four wins.
A group at Oliver Springs Middle School is working hard to build confidence in their fellow students.

Its goal is "to eradicate bullying and to make positivity contagious," said Jennifer Huckaby, the school counselor who serves as the club's adviser.
Huckaby works closely with Kris Hontz of the Antidrug Coalition and the students on projects to brighten the days of others.

When to worry about a bee nest?
Basically what the title says. Today I noticed a bunch of bees swarming in the garage and my educated guess is they've built a home in the rafters because they seem to be coming and going from one 2x2 foot area or so. With recent reports (not far from me) of Africanized bees, I'm kind of worried.
I planted flowers and such to draw in the bees for pollination, but didn't expect them to set up their home so close to mine. I'm not really sure where to go from here.. I still need the bees for pollination, so is this kind of a take it or leave it thing? Should I call someone out to see if they are Africanized (can they even tell?) or should I just get rid of them regardless? Does it make sense to get rid of the nest but keep the flowers to draw in more? Will they just likely set up their home somewhere close by too?
Ask your county's Extension Service office as they will have accurate info for your region.
Locate the office with this map
Here is a link that might be useful: locate your county's Extension Service office
And if they are in fact honeybees, many communities (although not all) will have someone near who will do a free live removal then relocate them someplace more appropriate. Have you seen one close enough to know if bee, wasp, or just what you have?
Here is a link that might be useful: examples beekeepers offering bee removal texas
i think i once saw BEES in the yellow pages.. get out you say.. lol ..
simply google: FREE BEE REMOVAL ... and add your county ..
beekeepers ought to know the difference.. dont you think ... and for free bees.. those dudes.. and dudettes.. will travel ... [and even if you have to pay them.. its better than hiring pest control to kill them]
and they might even answer the phone on sunday ...
worse they can tell you.. is they are the wrong kind.. and THEN you know ....
Here is a link that might be useful: i google free bee removal.. plus my county.. and came up with this page.. i presume you can find your state on the left margin ....
OP: Does it make sense to get rid of the nest but keep the flowers to draw in more?
Yes - Unless you're a beekeeper, you probably shouldn't allow a hive to remain in or near your residence since you're in a part of the country known to have Africanized bees. The threat is not the few dozen visiting your garden at a particular moment, but you or a pet being too close to a hive when something sets thousands into a swarm,
Here's what a north Texas woman attacked a couple weeks ago while exercising her miniature horses suggests: I want everyone to know if you see bees on your property it needs to be taken care of immediately. We did not disturb the hive. We were nowhere near it.
She survived, but two miniature horses and several chickens were killed. Details may be found in the linked article.
Here is a link that might be useful: Thousands of bees attack couple, horses in Pantego (TX)
I agree, if they are honey bees, they should absolutely not be killed, a pro should remove them for free because they are quite valuable, especially since so many have been lost recently. Certain crops require hiring bee hives to be brought to them, for pollination.
If they are something else, possibly A-bees, I'd want professional help, someone with the proper equipment and safety suit.
I've never had a bee nest/hive anywhere around that I know of, but have always had flowers. Planting flowers does not, by itself, cause bees to make a nest/hive nearby.

Doctors at Manipal hospitals achieved yet another feat by performing a rare cardiac surgery "Median Sternotomy" and saving the life of an 11-year old boy.
Satish, a seventh class student, always had a problem of breathing and showed signs of low cardiac output, both of which are associated with severe Pulmonary Artery Hypertension.
He was denied admission in various hospitals because of the risk involved, but the doctors at Manipal took him in under the Arogyasri scheme.
After a detailed examination of the patient and investigations such as cardiac catheterisation and 256 slice cardiac CT scan, the doctors decided to do a single stage repair through 'Median Sternotomy' to correct the anomalies.
"The process was a complex one as one of the heart valves was closed", said surgeon Sunil Basavaraj. Normally we perform one surgery, let the patient recover for two to three months then perform the second one, but in this case we needed to do both the surgeries at a time, he said.
The procedure known as "Extra Anatomic repair of Coarctation with Mitral Valve Replacement" lasted for about five hours.
An alternative pathway was created for blood flow and the Mitral Valve was replaced with a metallic valve.
Speaking on the successful recovery of the patient, unit head G. Ravi Kiran expressed his pride at the doctors who performed the surgery.
"I am happy to see that surgery and post-operative care went off well and the patient got discharged healthy", he said.

They have improved 10 fold since the new management / owner took over.. there is now adequate lighting at night to deter thugs. They now how overnight security (who btw sleep on the job fyi..management) I think they are heading in the right direction but the sudden increase in the monthly rent is uncalled for.. I don't think its appropriate now to increase so much especially since the place still has allot of abysmal issues. The INTERNAL water outages are always frequent even to this day.. they are always improving etc etc. One of the previous staff members tried to always put the blame on City of Houston, however I know that was not the case as it was always internal plumbing/maintenance issues. They tried fixing the flooding issue within the parking structure, still not resolved, its embarrassing. Also they just laid out speed bumps that are WAY TOO high and everytime my car passes through them, it hits the bottom portion of my car!! Never in my life have I ever had so many nails in my car's tires until I moved to this complex. Every month I kid you it seems that I find a new nail on one of my tires.. I have seen the previous maintenance guys throwing trash and dropping debry everywhere and im sure the same is still going on. My neighbors are ghetto. No other way to put it. Ghetto loud and love hanging out on the stairs as if it where the projects. All That said, this place has improved ten fold and is definitely heading in the right direction. I have however chosen to take my business elsewhere as im not too keen to commit another year of continued slow progress. I cant deal with the price hike.. it doesn't compensate for the terrible things ive been put through. (also let me add, when I moved into my apt, my kitchen dishwasher was not working.. guess what...a year later, no one has showed up to fix it.. even after multiple attempts to get this rectified. To be honest the new management isn't aware as Ive stoped caring) Oh (and again omg another drama) my complex had the entire roof replacd while I was living there and after that the roof leaked.. Before it would never leak but after the supposed leaks, my ceiling leaked and it ruined my HD TV SET.. It was an older tv set and had recently updated to a new tv set so never made a claim..be careful and if you have a leak.. make sure you cover your electronics with plastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They went out there 2 times to replace the roofing! twice!!!!!!!!!!!! Sure my review for the most part is negative but id give them a moderate rating because of the price.. you cant go and pay small dollars and expect to be treated like a god or goddess with luxury. For the price point it was adequate and reasonable. As of the date of my review, im givng the new staff a 5/5.. the old staff was the pits.. the most rude ghetto people ever!

My husband and I moved our family here from New York City. All we can say is living in Houston, TX. is SO SO SO dang cheap its NUTS! Rent is so damn low! We first came into the leasing office asked if they had anything under $1500 a month. They about fell out theirs desks! Haha! Anyways; The community is very quiet compared what were use to. People respect your space and no issues. We keep to ourselves anyways. My husband takes our son for walks every day throughout the neighborhood, there's market come by and mall within walking distance. Never had any problems. Access to WestPark Toll and Highway 59 right off Fondren. In all honesty we love the community accessible to everything if needed in a matter of minutes by vehicle. We have to get use to driving everywhere also; They have gated community with access cards available cheap at $25 a piece. NYC you pay $150-$300 for those back home. Cheap again..... The mgmt team pretty nice and respectful. It appears their under new mgmt and noticed a lot of changes to the community. The last mgmt owners ran this place into the ground as you can tell. The apartments are out dated and old. We've had to contact mgmt to place several work orders. We're planning on upgrading to larger place when our lease is up. We currently don't have any complaints really; everything is very reasonable and cheap. With an safe gated community we searched over 30 places Southwest Houston and everything place was over $500 with horrible living arrangements or you could over pay for a place at $1500. We choose this place b/c it was in the price we wanted to pay for rent and pricing was well worth calling this home. If you're looking for a upcoming place and cheap rent, decent community close to daily needs this might be a place to look into.

I have live here for over 8 months and can't until my lease is up. The maintenance is poor. They do not notify you when they have other people coming into your home. They cut off the water at random times without notice. They completely over charge for late fees. They claim they renovated the property, but it is nothing but poor patch work. I would not recommend ANYONE to move here no matter how good the move-in special is.

Bay Area Bites Guide To 5 Movie Theaters Serving Food and Alcoholic Beverages
Date night just got easier with this list of five local theaters that serve more than just popcorn and Junior Mints.
Saturday morning at the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market was classically representative of the way I shop the market. My plan was to get in and out in about an hour and go home to start my day. But all the vendors had stories, and I ran into friends and two and a half hours later, I was trudging home, my arms laden with lots of delicious goodies for the week.
It's an exciting time around the farmers market these days. I hadn't been to the market for about two weeks, and was amazed at how much the market changed in a short amount of time. There is a promise of summer fruit in the air, and the spring vegetables are in abundance. Here are some of the things I am looking forward to this month.

Johnny Damon nearing decision
The Johnny Damon Sweepstakes appeared to be nearing the finish line Thursday, as Damon tries to choose from several offers far less than the two-year, $20 million deal he and agent Scott Boras have been seeking.
Two sources told ESPN.com that the Detroit Tigers have made the largest offer, amid speculation around the industry that that bid is in the range of one year, $7 million. There were indications the sides were still discussing a possible two-year deal. But even the Tigers' one-year offer appears to be the biggest offer on the table.
The Atlanta Braves and Tampa Bay Rays have also remained in the bidding, with both teams talking about one-year contracts for fewer total dollars than the Tigers' offer. MLB.com reported that the Braves' offer was for less than $4 million. The Chicago White Sox also have expressed interest, as ESPNChicago.com reported late last month.
At this point, if Damon landed with any team other than the Tigers or Braves, it would be a surprise. He and Boras have been publicly expressing their admiration for both teams. And both, conveniently, hold spring training close to Damon's home in Orlando.
Officials of both the Tigers and Braves declined to characterize their offers or the state of their negotiations Thursday. However, speculation in the industry, from people who have spoken with various principals, is that Damon will make a decision by the end of the week.

Great Device
This device saved my life, instead of killing my shoulder with a dinosauric crutch I was strolling around like a happy biker. Thank you Knee Walker Central.
Better than expected
This proved to be a nifty little device. It helped me more than I expected after my doctor recommended it to me. I like to spend a lot of time outdoors and this walker helped me do exactly that. The pad was comfortable and its incredibly easy to steer. My only real complaint is that I didnt know about it when I was recovering from a broken ankle 5 years ago.
Great waterproof cast cover
I rented the Northrup Knee Walker after I severely injured my foot in a car accident. I really like the way the makers of this product really thought of everything. I particularly enjoyed the waterproof cast cover, as it made it MUCH easier than I thought to take a shower. Ive never been injured before this and am not used to equipment like this, but it was easy to assemble and use. It made my life much easier when my foot was recovering and Ive been telling everyone about it!
My New Best Friend
I broke my ankle in 3 places in high school and then aggravated it again on the job when I was 39. Ive been on crutches before and can tell you that its terrible. So when I messed reinjured my ankle again at the age of 61, I knew I wanted something other than crutches after the surgery. I did some research before my surgery and between my doctors recommendation and the online reviews I was sold. Of course, the hype turned out to be real. The Northrup Knee Walker was a great alternative to crutches for me. While Im not very experienced with walkers, I find it hard to believe there is anything better out there.
Lose the crutches
Theres some assembly required, but its a cinch. I was able to get around my house without any trouble or pain. I spent five weeks with my walker and there were days where I had almost forgotten that I was injured. It was a tremendous help with my recovery process and I cant say enough about the extra little bells and whistles that came with it. This is an awesome knee walker that will hopefully make crutches obsolete!
