Instead of the traditional 10-hour classroom hunter safety course, students can choose the hunter-ed.com online course followed by a 4-6 hour field course led by a certified hunter education instructor. DALLAS — With hunting seasons underway, Texas hunters are reminded of the need for hunter education. Instead of the traditional 10-hour classroom hunter safety course, students can choose the hunter-ed.com online course followed by a 4-6 hour field course led by a certified hunter education instructor. (www.hunter-ed.com/tx) Hunter-ed.com's online hunter safety course material is free to the public. Students take the fast-paced hunter safety course online from the convenience of home as it fits their schedule. When they complete the online course, students pay $19.50 to print out a field day qualifier exam certificate that admits them to a mandatory field course (pre-registration required). The field course includes a skills trail, live firing exercise, ethics presentation, review and final hunter education exam. Successful students are then eligible to purchase a hunting license. In addition to the online hunter education option, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department has chosen hunter-ed.com to provide classroom hunter safety course manuals since 2004. The traditional classroom hunter education course averages 10-14 hours of instruction during two or more days. All hunter-ed.com students learn the same hunter education material, whether it's taught in the classroom course or online. Texas students can choose the hunters education learning method that's right for them. "Hunter-ed.com, one of the online courses available, is uniquely qualified to meet the requirements of the Texas Hunter Education Program, said Terry Erwin, hunter education coordinator for the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. "Their course content and presentation has been refined through extensive review by firearms safety and hunter education authorities within Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. Hunter-ed.com saves students' time by offering the online course, which is part of hunter-ed's complete and consistent suite of hunter education materials. Remember to check availability of the required field course in your area before completing an online course." Successfully completing a hunter education course is required for all Texas hunters born on or after September 2, 1971. Proof of hunter education is not required to purchase a hunting license, however, a hunter education certificate (or "deferral") must be carried while hunting. About 30,000 students complete a Texas hunter education course each year, and the statistics show hunter education training is a success. Hunting accidents have been significantly reduced since hunter education became mandatory. Since 2002, more than one million students have taken a hunter-ed.com hunter education course. "We are gratified that so many state agencies and students have selected hunter-ed.com to be their hunter education partner," said Kurt Kalkomey, president of Kalkomey Enterprises, Inc. "Hunter-ed.com continually innovates so we can introduce more folks to the rich heritage of hunting. Our motto is 'Get safe, get certified' so you can maximize your enjoyment of the outdoors. These days, very few people can devote an entire weekend or multiple weeknights to take the 10-hour classroom hunting course. The hunter-ed.com online course saves time and money, and opens up hunting opportunities for young people." Hunter-ed.com is a division of Kalkomey Enterprises, Inc., which publishes more than 190 hunter education products selected by 48 states.

Emergency services descended on Crossmyloof Station, in the South Side of the city, at around 8.15 am, after reports of a fire onboard a train carriage.
Eyewitnesses reported seeing a carriage on fire and the area around the station was evacuated.
Commuter Laura Ferrier tweeted: "Sitting on the train waiting for it to leave to go to Uni and they say it's delayed cos of a fire... Suppose I'll just need to go back to bed."
Hannah Cochrane tweeted: "Train on fire at crossmyloof telling us the delay could be up to 2 hours."
Paul Sutherland tweeted: "A train is on fire at Crossmyloof. All the trains are aff. Some day for it eh?"
Scottish Fire and Rescue confirmed they were in attendance at the scene.
However, a spokeswoman added: "No further information is available at this time."

Air Seychelles has received the first of two Airbus A330s under a sub wet-lease agreement with Etihad, though it plans to operate both jets on dry leases by January 2013.
The first A330 (MSN 751) is being leased by ILFC to Etihad, which is in turn sub wet leasing the jet to Air Seychelles through to May 2013.
However, Air Seychelles expects to end the wet lease prematurely once its pilots have completed training for the type. "We just gave ourselves a little bit of leeway," a spokesman for the Seychellois flag carrier tells Flightglobal.
"The reason why we had to do the wet lease was because we've switched from Boeing [for the long-haul fleet] to Airbus, and it's going to take six to nine months for our pilots to become fully qualified."
With a delivery date of January 2013, the second A330 is expected to enter service on an immediate dry lease. Both A330s were previously operated by Jet Airways, and both will sport the Air Seychelles livery.
Abu Dhabi-based Etihad acquired a 40% stake in Air Seychelles in January, injecting sorely needed financial support into the ailing flag carrier.
At the time, James Hogan, Etihad chief executive, outlined plans for the two carriers to extend codeshare arrangements and achieve synergies through shared training and procurement. Air Seychelles also completed a management restructuring in May.
The acquisition has already seen Etihad sub wet lease one of its Airbus A320s to Air Seychelles on flights to Mauritius. That aircraft, which is still painted in Etihad's livery, recently had its lease extended through to July 2013.
"We want to continue that as long as possible, but it may be that eventually we have to convert it to dry lease," the spokesman says. "In which case we'll have to re-look at our network strategy, in terms of where else we can use the A320 besides Mauritius.
"In terms of our fleet planning for the next three to five years, we are considering the possibility of having an A320 come on our books, but we have no firm plans as yet."
The new A330 will initially be deployed on flights to Johannesburg and Abu Dhabi, while the arrival of the second A330 is expected to see Beijing added to the route network.
The Seychellois flag carrier may also consider sub wet leasing its A330s back to their original source, allowing Etihad to take over high-growth routes such as Munich and Mumbai. Such capacity re-allocation would be "win-win" for both airlines, the spokesman says.

Three Masters of Fine Arts students from Government College of Art, Sector 10, bring together a painting exhibition called Triangle at Tagore Theatre, Sector 18, Chandigarh. The three-day exhibition, organised by Chandigargh-based 4C (Chandigarh, Creative, Cinema Circle) is on from May 23 to 25. Excerpts from a quick conversation with the three artists, as they talk about their work and discuss the scope of art for students.
Benny VJ, 28, KeralaBenny, after doing BFA (Bachelor of Fine Arts) from Raja Ravi Varma College of Fine Arts, Kerala, moved to Chandigarh. At Triangle, he has six paintings and 20 drawings on display. About his work, he says, "It's about the relationship between the nature and man. I believe my work is the initial platform for me to understand the wonder and mysticism of nature."
Talking about his own scope in the field, he adds, "To continue this job, I'll have to find another job. So far, the family has been supporting me, but now, since I'm passing out from college, I'll have to work somewhere to earn enough to be able to invest in my art."
Parmod Prasad, 27, Kerala Pramod is displaying seven paintings and 10 drawings at the exhibition, but has made a total of 250 art works in the past two years of MFA. According to him, his paintings are a frantic search for himself. "I bring together my idealistic world and my surroundings, and try to create a new space that has orange trees and stones. I always believe in the inner truth than the outer beauty."
Giving out a message to all art aspirants, he says, "A good sketch with dedication is far better than a BMW. And who said art is not lucrative?"
Garima Aggarwal, 25, Saharanpur Garima's work is mostly inspired from Le Corbusier's architecture. She says, "I'm inspired by Swiss architecture's anthropomorphic planes, that led me to streamlined horizontal and vertical lines, which I have introduced in my work. My work is also based on the different phases of my life, such as love for nature and travelling experiences. I have travelled to places HP, Kashmir, Mysore, Delhi, Bangalore, Mangalore, Belur, Rajasthan and Daman and Diu so far."
Garima also believes that art nowadays has a vast scope. "But it entirely depends on how you take it. It requires hard work."
The paintings range from R3,000 to R50,000.
Get sketched!The exhibition will also find BFA student Saral making sketches on the spot for R200 for today and tomorrow. Saral is famous for making 200 self-portraits with different expressions in three days.

Clone Stamp
- I'm a photographer and this looks like something done with the "clone stamp" tool on Photoshop and Photoshop Elements. It does exactly as the name implies, copies an element in the photo to another area in the same photo. You click on the area you want to clone. Then move your cursor to a new area in the photo and use the brush to reproduce the element. It has a tendency to create that very harsh line like we see on the one child. It's very easy to do. You can even vary the level of transparency creating a more ethereal appearance or make it completely opaque. It's fairly hard to detect unless you are really looking for it and blow up the picture fairly large and look at the actual pixels.
- —Guest Beth
Probably not ghosts
- The child on the right walks behind a gravestone, therefore the sharp cut-off. He is sufficiently different to the one on the left, probably brothers walking with an adult (as you pointed out) through the cemetery, may be even on a ghost-hunt themselves?
- —ilgonis
I was saying the same...
- I was pointing out some of the same things you did. The children looking like duplicates and the right child having a straight left edge to him. It looks like a sloppy photoshopped pic to me.
- —Guest TomStewart
- How you ruled out the possibility that it could be twins? Or even twin ghosts? Interesting photos...
- —lilqueenie76
Its a fake...
- I'm not a professional graphics designer but even I can tell that this is got to be a "photohsopped" picture. The reason that the author brings up builds a very strong case for a fake mpicture more than it being ghost kids...

Project Name and Location
Fragments | Frammenti
Milan, Italy
Designed By
by Silvio De Ponte Architect
About the Project
The Concept event in the La Perla showroom, created by Silvio De Ponte, is based on the concept of Fractal, generating a unique and homogeneous mix, becoming a sort of great embroidery products and establishing a new spatiality. The Fractal is a system constituted by a component module that is multiplied to generate a new complex and articulated scenario, comprising a set of fragments on different scales.
The Fragment is the essential element of a piece of work, and it is an important part of the space.
The Fractal creates a complex and articulated system, it will be multiplied several times and fragmented.
Through this installation made of multifunctional and articulated surfaces, the topic of architectural and design softness will be able to come across. The creation of environments with new sensorial relations will lead the visitor towards a way where perceptive quality creates an innovative and harmonic environment.
The space is designed to stimulate sensorial perceptions by the physical qualities of the elements. Its a mix of natural and artificial materials such as light, sound, touch, water, perfumes, texture and innovative surfaces. A new sustainability of the human being for the human being.
New vertical and horizontal surfaces are planned with the most striking materials to create interest, attention, curiosity and sensation revival.
In this scenic and spectacular frame, there will be a collection of objects and products made of stone such as vases, seats and Nest lamps made of metal. Furthermore there will be in the new collection "braziers", low lamps from earth of stone and metal.
In the exhibition area there will be exposed some of La Perla creations through the creation of archetypal objects, the Hanger and Dividers.
The ensemble of hangers are influenced by natural landscapes: a submerged and stylized marine world.
Dividers are designed as a needlework in a large scale, made of metal, they can take the place of screens in the different environments, they are designed as a fractal construction that multiplies itself many times.
Lessons Learned
- The event has been thought in collaboration with the Companies in partnership, products and materials will be shown and valued in the general Concept.
- They will be also shown in the business exhibition area – dedicated to meetings – in this part there will be also the opportunity of focusing on the products of the companies partners.
- Products will be shown in great displays as a tridimensional "Mood Board", Fragments | Frammenti

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as I remembered
I first read 'Dracula' when I was 17 or 18 and I remember really enjoying it. Twenty years' later I thought I'd reread it. Big mistake. Stoker conjures up some terrific individual scenes and the opening few chapters documenting Harker's time at Castle Dracula are superb. For me it starts to fall apart about halfway through when the plot begins to run out of steam. Some of...

russell clarke "stipesdoppleganger" (halifax, west yorks) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dracula (Wordsworth Classics) (Paperback)
A mate of mine always relates a story pertaining to our childhood where when he was off playing army or cowboys and Indians , I and whoever I could persuade at the time, were off playing vampires -hiding in tree's though what that has to do with vampires is anybody's guess. Vampires have fascinated me since I first came to these shores in 1736...no only kidding , since I was very small. The Hammer Dracula films left an indelible imprint on my fermenting but feverish imagination and as soon as I was able to afford it(paper-round money ) I bought Bram Stokers 1897 novel .Even my unsophisticated teenage mind knew it was dealing with a literary classic and having re-read again it recently for the first time in a long time my unsophisticated adult mind has come to the same conclusion .It a gothic masterpiece, it's a horror masterpiece ...in fact lets just say it's a masterpiece.
The novel is told in an epistolary style , that is the novel is mainly composed of journal entries and letters written by several narrators who also serve as the novel's main characters . It seems unnecessary to go over any of the plot only to say that as well as mining European folklore and stories of vampires, Stokers novel also explores the role of women in Victorian culture, conventional and conservative sexuality, immigration, colonialism, superstition and the cutting edge (then ) of medical science and theory's .
The Victorians viewed it ostensibly as a rollicking adventure novel but it only received the attention and notoriety we take for granted nowadays when the film industry picked up on the appeal of vampires lore. And talking of lore it is oft mentioned that Stoker used Vlad III Dracula (or Vlad the Impaler ) and Countess Bathory as inspirations for the novel .
Whatever his inspiration Stoker created a distinctly memorable character in the rapacious Count but rather like Thomas Harris did with Red Dragon and The Silence of the Lambs made the character hunting the villain just as memorable. Van Helsing is at one and the same time a man of science familiar with the latest trends and technologies yet is also open to the existence of a supernatural being , which of course hard men of science would mock and eschew.
Even though the main character is not in the narrative as much as we would like the book has a beautifully and expertly realised air of creepy tension and is thick with atmosphere. I sat at my computer desk for a good fifteen minutes struggling to think of another novel that so adroitly conveys feelings and situations as palpable as Dracula and eventually came up with Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (Wordsworth Classics): Or, the Modern Prometheus ( bit lame that I know ) and another vampire novel ,and a sadly overlooked at that Skipp And Spectors wonderful The Light at the End. I'm not a big fan but Stephen Kings Salem's Lot is pretty replete with dread heavy ambience too.
Vampire fiction has been badly served of late with lightweight vampire as bleached hotty fare like Twilight (Twilight Saga) .Yet for every work of lightweight fluff like that here is something wonderful like Let the Right One in that comes at the genre from a withering new angle.
Fair to say though that Dracula is the king of the vampire and that Bram Stokers book is still , 112 years on ,still the king of vampire novels.

5.0 out of 5 stars "For the dead travel fast",
bernie "xyzzy" (Arlington, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dracula (Vintage Classics) (Paperback)
Surprisingly "Denn die Toten reiten schnell" or "For the dead travel fast" is more than an opening line to this tale of love in the dangerous moon light. After watching several Drac movies and a few Nosferatu's, I pretty much though I had a handle on the genera. Little did I know what a wonderful world of mystery and suspense that Bram Stoker opened up for me.
The story is told mostly third party though the papers, diaries, and phonograph recordings (on wax calendars) of those people involve in a tale so bizarre that it almost defies belief. The general story line is that of a Count that plans to move to a more urban setting (from Borgo Pass to London) where there is a richer diet. There he finds succulent women; something he can sing his teeth in. Unfortunately for him a gang of ruffians (including a real-estate agent, asylum director, Texas cowboy and an Old Dutch abnormal psychologist) is out to detour his nocturnal munching. They think they have Drac on the run but with a wing and a prayer he is always one step ahead.
Of more value to the reader is the rich prose chosen by Stoker as he describes the morals and technology of the time. We have to come to grips with or decide if we can perform the rituals that are required to eliminate vampires verses the impropriety of opening graves and staking loved ones. The powers in the book differ from the movie versions in that they are more of persuasion and capabilities to manipulate the local weather. At one point the Dutch Dr. Van Helsing, is so overwhelmed by a beautiful vampire laying in the grave that he almost for gets why he is there and may become vamp chow.
All in all the story is more in the cunning chase. And the question as to will they succeed or will Dracula triumph. Remember "For the dead travel fast."

5.0 out of 5 stars Read only at night,
This review is from: Dracula (Oxford World's Classics) (Paperback)
i was very surprised by this book, held in great suspense all through the book i could hardly out it down at times. Dracula is a name everyone is familiar with and all the vampire lore we see today all stems from this book in which the Count as captivated readers imaginations ever since and continues to. from the start the reader will notice a very different writing style to any other, the whole book is all written as a series of journal entries, letters and newspaper clippings from its principle characters and this gives it an incredible feeling like as if you are actually reading their very journals as you get lost in the story. the story builds over time, along with the suspense, at times it can feel like its dragging on but your are kept in mystery much of the time and that is what pushes you to keep reading as you never know how its going to turn out. this version has a great introduction (don't read it before the book) which explains the themes of the book and how the idea for it came to the author. while the characters do lack dept that though prevents from getting drowns in minor details and allows you to concentrate on the story itself which in parts will have you totally engrossed in it. a fantastic book that should be read by all just merely for the sake of reading a book that all have heard of but few have actually read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Attractive quality paperback edition,
Discerning - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dracula: Complete, Original Text (Forgotten Books) (Paperback)
The font does not appear to be larger than usual in this book but it is printed on smooth white pages which helps it to stand out and there is a space between each paragraph. It is better than peering at minute text on the yellowish rough pages that cheaper books seem to come with so it was definitely worth paying a little more for this edition, plus the cover appealed to me more than a ghoulish alternative. It is slightly larger than an average paperback. There are so many vampire themed books about now that it is time that we read the original one! One of an interesting selection of esoteric books in the Forgotten Books collection.

4.0 out of 5 stars Scarily good!,
Kay Scarlet "Miss Scarlet" (Germany) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dracula (Hardcover)
I started reading this unsure of what to expect...and had finished it within 3 days, as I was unable to put it down! It goes almost straight into the story and the action starts immediately. It is also interesting that the book is written completely in letters, journal entries and so forth. The characters are interesting, especially the count himself, and it seems quite real at times (I found myself closing all my windows and checking my room for vampires).
My only complaint was that I found that the book ended quite abruptly...the story was excellent and it prepared me for a huge, wonderful ending...and then never presented it. The book ended awfully suddenly in comparison to the rest of the book which was excellent.
HOWEVER despite this, I still recommend this as its a great read and the book looks great with the red cover. Recommended :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful limited edition,
@Tube_Driver (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dracula (Limited Edition of 1000 Copies) (Hardcover)
This is a wonderful edition of a classic novel, beautifully produced and presented. I was pleasantly surprised at how well this hardback book was packaged; it comes in a sturdy, red slipcase which is in turn housed in a nice, protective box. You would have to be extremely unlucky for this to be damaged in transit.
I don't really have much more to add to existing reviews, except to say that this really is a must-have edition if you are a collector or even if you just like the novel. I already have two other copies of Dracula and purchased this as an investment as it is sure to become a sought after item in years to come. I think this quality product is well worth the asking price.
Please take a look at the photos I submitted to get a better idea of what is included in this beautiful package.

5.0 out of 5 stars The origin of undead-stories!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Dracula (Penguin Classics) (Paperback)
The legend of dracula has intrigued people for hundreds of years and Transylvania is still a mythical place, fearde by many. especially at night... Bram Stoker would have abhorred the sickeningly bad attempts at retelling the story on the white screen, even if every director boasts "back to the original" intentions. The only effect the films have had -strangely enough- have been to make the original story so much better!! We know more about the undead, stakes, garlic than did Stoker's first readers and this only makes the plot more intriguing. The book is partly composed of letters from different characters to other, which is a clever way of increasing the suspense, as the reader is the only person with all the answers...
It's an absolute must!

5.0 out of 5 stars My first and favourite,
SBno1 - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dracula (Kindle Edition)
This was the first classic book I ever read. I decided that I should at least read a few classic books before I die and I decided upon this one. Many films have been made based upon this one book so I thought I would see what the true story was like.
It was quite a surprise to find that the book is not about stakes, garlic, blood, crosses, coffins and daylight, although that does come into it. The underlying story is quite heart wrenching and I really started to feel for the pain that Dracula carries for his lost love.
The book is written as the journal of Jonathan Harker and his soon to be wife Mina Murray, whom Dracula believes to be his long lost love who killed herself believing Dracula had died during a war.
The story is 2 sided. Harker having been trapped in Dracula's castle and trying to get back to England. Mina who is waiting for Harker to come home, but has met Dracula and is starting to fall in love with him through no will of her own. Then there is a battle to get Mina back to Dracula's castle so that they can be together for eternity and Harker and his posse of friends (including the infamous Van Helsing) trying to stop this from happening.
It is a little difficult to get stuck into the book at first, but as it progresses I become engrossed with the characters and story line. I felt the sense of urgency when the final chase was on and found myself reading faster as it went along. I became totally submerged in the book. This really is a timeless classic which has fed a film industry for years past and no doubt years to come.
Dracula is such a well known character, but how many people know the real story. Be one of them, The Kindle book is free, what have you got to lose?

5.0 out of 5 stars The daddy of vampire fiction,
F.R. Jameson (London) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dracula (Wordsworth Classics) (Paperback)
I'll be honest, I've only actually read `Dracula' once before - when I was twenty or so - and didn't really think much of it. Jonathan Harker's opening narrative seemed to me, then, slow and uninvolving and I believe I thought the rest of the book not much of an improvement. One of the joys of art - be it books, films or music - is that you can come back to something with fresh eyes at a later point in your life and appreciate it in a whole different way. `Dracula', this time around, has been a fantastically entertaining surprise. So much so that I wish I could go back to my twenty year old self, peel back his skull and try to work out what the Hell he was thinking.
Written in 1897, the book can be seen as very much part of an English `fin de siècle'; art created at the end of the glorious Victorian age which nevertheless reveals anxiety about the world around it. `Dracula' actually sees the old and the new come together, with a member of the aristocracy working hand in hand with gentlemen of the professions (doctors, a lawyer), as well as an American gentleman, to stop a threat facing London. The Upper Classes and the new Middle Classes joining so harmoniously together without comment on their distinctions, is something quite modern for the Victorian novel. (The Working Classes also put in an appearance, although they are pretty much illiterate and drunk, however they do recognise their betters. Other writers would create books for them). There are also new fangled inventions like the phonograph, and the great wonders of transport created in the Victorian age are put to great use.
And yet, there is a constant threat of the unknown. A visitor from a country at the far edge of Europe reaches in and disrupts the harmony of this secure world. He is something beyond the great achievements of science, a creature who is old and bloody and threatens to take this civilised and ordered world back to the dark ages. He is also decadently sensual, having no respect for the morals of vulnerable young women. Evidently this is the type of monster who needs to be stopped, but can even the greatness of the Victorian age stamp him out?
Undoubtedly Stoker did his research into Victorian folklore, as his knowledge is smeared across the pages. Indeed there are numerous scenes of gore and violence which stand up even now (particularly the fate of Lucy in the graveyard) and it all builds to a genuinely exciting chase sequence. Like `Frankenstein', it isn't perfect: the character of Dracula himself vanishes to the background a little too much; some of the melding together of the differing narratives is extremely clunky; and, once Mina is chosen by Dracula for his prey, would these people really not suspect what was happening? However, I will write every one of those off as quibbles. My twenty year old self was wrong, `Dracula' is a scary and thrilling read, which still deserves to stand as the Daddy of vampire fiction.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the greatest Gothic classics of all time,
Gary Selikow (Great Kush) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dracula (Penguin Classics) (Paperback)
With the plethora of Vampire novels flooding the market, it is vital for anyone who loves the eerie and mysterious to read this classic 19th century masterpiece which introduced the intricate story of Count Dracula to the world
Begins the journey of young English solicitor Jonathan Harker to the Carpathian mountain castle of Count Dracula, to finish a real estate deal. Beguiled at first by Dracula's engaging manner Harker soon discovers he is a prisoner in the castle.
He explores, against Dracula's orders, forbidden parts of the Castle, and is attacked by three wanton female vampires but is saved by Dracula who wants to keep him alive to learn about Harker's homeland
Harker barely escapes the castle with his life. Meanwhile Dracula makes his way to England, on a Russian boat, the Demeter , where he tracks Harker;s innocent young fiancee Wilhelmina "Mina" Murray and her best friend Lucy Westenra. He can assume a manner of shapes and sizes , and metamorphose into bats, wolves and other beings in order to get whore he wants. He can control nature and all manner of animals, such as rats, bats, wolves and dogs. Dracula infect Lucy with his vampire condition and eventually kills her and her mother, he also infects Mina but Mina is to survive. And the hunt for Dracula begins to cure Mina and prevent the demon from infecting and destroying more victims, Professor Abraham Van Helsing, Dr Seward and Jonathan Harker begin the hunt for Dracula which will take them back to the Carpathian mountains for the gripping final scene.
I'm certainly happy I read this novel-which sits on the throne besides classics as Wuthering Heights and the works of Edgar Allen Poe and Mary Shelley, as one of the greatest Gothic novels of all time. Richly descriptive about the places , characters and events, of the novel, including both Eastern Europe and London in the late 19th century, with just the right combination of pathos, eeriness, horror and humanity.
Written all in the form of diaries, journals and letters, in other words the book is written in epistolary format.

In a first-of-its-kind surgery, a baby who would not have survived a traditional delivery receives life-saving fetal surgery.
"We were 20 weeks pregnant and we had just our regular check-up ultrasound," Savannah Perry said. Every expectant mother's greatest fear is when a problem appears during an otherwise normal pregnancy.
"We didn't even know if she was going to survive. They did another ultrasound about a week later and at that time they said it looked like there was a cyst inside of her lung," Savannah said. A non-cancerous, cyst was growing next to her unborn baby's left lung.
"I think there was a significant risk once she was delivered. She was fine in utero, but once she was delivered, we were asking the lungs to support her. It just wouldn't have worked. So, we knew we had to come up with a separate strategy," Dr. Timothy Crombleholme, Fetal Surgeon, Surgeon-In-Chief, Children's Hospital Colorado, said.
The strategy—at 36 weeks, half delivered, and still attached to the placenta, doctors at Children's Hospital of Colorado removed the cyst before delivering the baby.
"By the time Lake was delivered, her left lung was touching her right chest wall. It had phenomenally increased in size and had compressed the right lung," Dr. Croblemholme said.
"She is doing amazing. She is learning to walk. She walks around furniture now. She loves anywhere she is not supposed to be," Savannah said.
Baby Lake is now 11 months old and her left lung has almost returned to its normal size. Doctors believe she will make a full recovery and be just like any other kid as she grows up.

Home > Archives for Scion
We got a chance to take a up close sneak peek look at the 686 x Scion "Numeric" Snowboarding concept car. This ride comes equipped with New Balance tires, a Bern protective carbon fiber helmet/roof, Dragon's APX frameless goggle as a windshield, and GoPro POV side-mirrors, just to name a few of the special features. This joint is a beast and we wouldn't mind whipping it around at all. Hit the jump for some more looks.
686 continues their progressive streak with the release today of images of their ill new concept car with Scion. The Numeric is a car completely dedicated in concept to the snowboarding lifestyle and while it's impossible to read the description of brand-specific modifications without getting inspired, the one major challenge we see for this vehicle is actually getting it to the mountain (the clearance looks a little low). Regardless, its a dope idea. See and read more on Highsnobiety.
Last week Radcollector got the chance to preview the new Scion iQ, Scion's answer to the Smart Car. The little bad boy turned out to be way radder than we thought it would with features like GPS, seven variable interior light colors, and a pretty banging system packed into a car only ten feet in length. But our favorite feature of the $15,000 whip was easily its ability to pull instant U-turns using its 12.9 foot turning radius. Check it out as Pete Williams demonstrates above. Peep some more pics after the jump as well as over on Highsnobiety.

And it has come to pass; Nigeria last night won the 2013 edition of the African Cup of Nations (AFCON), thanks to the national team, the Super Eagles.
It has happened only on two previous occasions in the history of Nigeria's participation at AFCON. The first was in 1980, at the 12th edition if the tournament hosted by Nigeria in which Nigeria walloped Algeria 3-0 to lift the cup for the first time. At the 19th edition hosted by Tunisia, who replaced the original hosts Zaire, Nigeria lifted the Cup second time after beating Zambia 2-1 in the finals. Last night, in the final of the 29th edition of Afcon played in Johannesburg, South Africa, the Super Eagles edged out the Stallions of Burkina Faso by a lone goal to lift the Cup and the prize money of $1.5 million dollars.
Arguably, 1994 could be regarded as the golden year of Nigerian football. Apart from winning the AFCON cup that year, the Super Eagles were in April that year ranked 5th in the FIFA World Rankings - the highest ranking ever achieved by any African team. In the World Cup tournament that year in the United States, the players gave a good account of themselves, topping its group which included Argentina, Bulgaria, and Greece. In its first game Nigeria defeated Bulgaria 3-0, lost to Argentina 1-2, and qualified for the second round after a 2-0 victory over Greece. Though presently ranked a lowly 52nd position in the current FIFA rankings, the Eagles current form, especially in its matches against Ivory Coast and Mali, has led to comparisons with the 1994 squad.
South Africa once proved to be a good host in organising the tournament. Though it crashed out in the quarterfinals after losing to Mali, the country, with this tournament and the 2010 FIFA World Cup before it, has cemented its reputation as the African country with the best facilities and organisational skills to host world-class sporting events.
Apart from the hurrah effects that come from victories such as the one the Super Eagles secured over Burkina Faso on Sunday, there are a number of lessons from that feat, which also apply in the political arena.
One is that criticisms could sometimes be a spur to greater heights. In the opening games of the tournament, the Super Eagles' performances were less than stellar and Nigerians showed their frustration and anger, with some even calling for the sack of Coach Stephen Keshi.
Second is that the tournament and Nigerians' solid support for the Super Eagles shows that constructing a Nigeria-nation is possible. With each game, Nigerians willingly sank their differences to think as one. A lesson here for the country is that delivering results under a leader seen as competent and fair minded, who knows how to tap into the different skills and diversities of the country to achieve a common goal is a key requirement in the arduous task of nation-building.
Thirdly, political officer holders need not waste valuable time plotting for re-election or tenure elongation, once they are elected to an office. If Keshi returns home and the Nigerian Football Federation decides not to renew his contract, most Nigerians will rise up against such a decision in anger. In essence a public office holder, who performs to the expectations of the electorate, need not waste valuable time and resources on intrigues that will guarantee him a second term in office or even tenure elongation as the voting public will gladly want such an official to continue. The fact is that Nigerians are very appreciative and generous people once their expectations are being met. The Super Eagles will most likely see a lot of the generous side of Nigerians on their return. Already Aliko Dangote has splashed N130m on the team.
It is in very much appropriate that Nigerians are celebrating the well-deserved victory of the Super Eagles. Rather than make the team complacent, the jubilant faces of Nigerians should be the necessary tonic the country's football needs. Now that the team has conquered Africa for the third time, the goal should now be bring home to Nigeria the highly elusive World Cup, which holds next year in Brazil.
Congratulations Nigeria.

Muslims tortured, killed, dragged U.S. ambassador's body through streets
by Dr. Eowyn
Jim Holt writes for Gateway Pundit, Sept. 12, 2012, that last night, radical Islamists attacked the US Consulate in Benghazi with rocket propelled grenades and machine gun fire. They killed Ambassador Christopher Stevens, then dragged his body through the streets.
The U.S. Consulate in Benghasi was destroyed.
REUTERS/Esam Al-Fetori)
The same consulate was bombed this June, but the Obama Administration did nothing.
CBS News reports that Wanis al-Sharef, a Libyan Interior Ministry official in Benghazi, said Ambassador Stevens, 52, and other officials were moved to a second building – deemed safer – after the initial wave of protests at the Benghazi consulate compound. But members of the Libyan security team guarding the U.S. consulate "seem to have indicated to the protesters the building to which the American officials had been relocated." The mob then attacked that second building, and killed Stevens and three other Americans.
Al-Sharef said two U.S. Marines sent to Benghazi when the clash erupted were shot and killed by the well-armed protesters. It was not immediately clear whether the Marines were part of Stevens' security detail. The American whose death was confirmed on Tuesday also died of a gunshot wound. He was identified by the State Department on Wednesday as Foreign Service Information Management Officer Sean Smith.
Front Page Magazine reports Ambassador Stevens was tortured: "The latest reports say that he did not die of gunshot wounds, but of suffocation, that would mean that he was likely manually killed."

Richard Nicoll SS12 Mainline Show
Tuesday, 20th Sep 2011
Current women's Laurel Wreath designer Richard Nicoll showcased his mainline collection at London Fashion Week this Sunday; garnering wide spread praise for a SS12 collection punctuated with themes clearly visible in his Fred Perry styles.
The SS12 mainline collection adopted a mid sixties silhouette, with tailored shifts and babydoll dresses given a futuristic edge with structured hoop skirts and sharp hemlines. Nicoll continued to reference the eccentricity of 60s Paris; with an ethereal rose print spread across a palette of washed out blues, making the design appear as if it was created underwater. We'd like to congratulate Richard and his team for another stand-out presentation, and look forward to presenting his SS12 styles for Fred Perry Laurel Wreath early next year.
Check back later this week for a look behind the scenes at Richard's SS12 mainline show.

The January Indicator
- By ChicagoSean+ (@ChicagoSean) Head of Community Development @ StockTwits |
- January 31st, 2014
Investors gazing into the markets' crystal ball do not see a happy future. All the major indices are poised to post losses for January. Month-to-date, the Dow is down 3.6%, S&P has dropped more than 2%, and Nasdaq has declined about half-a-percent. All indices are in the red this morning.
And, as investors so often say, as goes January so goes the year.
Jan. 31 at 9:14 AM
Stocktwits sentiment charts show more than 51% of users are bearish on the $DJIA and $SPY.
Jan. 31 at 11:11 AM
The dour mood is not surprising. Economics news has been mixed at best. Though year-over-year GDP grew 3.2% in the fourth quarter, according to numbers released this week by The Department of Commerce, growth is slowing. In the third quarter GDP grew 4.1% year-over-year.
And some economists argue that even this reduced GDP growth can't last.
"GDP growth has been bloated by an unsustainable surge of restocking," wrote Economist Stephen S. Roach in a piece in Project Syndicate this month titled "America's False Dawn." The former chief economist at Morgan Stanley added: "two quarters of strengthening GDP growth hardly indicates a breakout from an anemic recovery."
Employment data also sends contrary signals as to the strength of the U.S. recovery. The unemployment rate dropped below 7% in December, it's lowest level in four years. But income growth is anemic. This morning, the Department of Commerce said personal income grew $2.3 billion—or less than 0.1%–in December. Disposable income decreased $3.8 billion in December. Personal consumption increased just 0.4% during the last month of 2013.
And the Federal Reserve is cutting back on the stimulus that many believe has propped up the market and saved the banking system.
Jan. 29 at 10:50 PM
Of course some contrarian investors see positive signs in January's weakness.
Jan. 31 at 8:35 AM
Even those that follow the January indicator may want to note that it's only right about two-thirds of the time. Mark Hulbert, founder of Hulbert Financial Digest and a MarketWatch columnist, found that the Dow posted an annual decline about 66% of the time following a bad January.

Christmas visit to Italy
4 Attachment(s)
We took 35 high school kids to Italy and Greece over the holidays. We stopped at Pompeii which was fascinating. We went to what was the bakery and here are a few pictures. I will try to get some better pics of the oven from others who were on the tour. My pics of inside the oven didn't come out. The giant pieces of stone were the flour mills, the grains went in up at the top and then were ground between the stones by the use of slaves who walked in circles to turn it. It was very interesting.
Re: Christmas visit to Italy
Telehort, Cool looking grind stones, was there a info placard telling about them?
I'm curious, they look very symetrical and I'm wondering are the grind surfaces cone shaped? They look like they were made to be inverted when they reached a certain amount of wear. If they are cone shaped it would form the funnel on the top and the cone would keep the stone centered on the bottom when it was rotated. Any more info? Those Romans were quite clever.
Re: Christmas visit to Italy
Wiley - There weren't any placards, but the arm of the person you can see in the picture was our tour guide who would explain what we were looking at. I really wish I would have jumped up and taken a picture of the top of the grind stone, but my understanding was that the rock was funnel shaped on the inside and that there was a hole that the grain would drop through and then be ground again the bottom rock. Maybe someone else has been here and may have some more info. I guess I may have to go google and try and find some more info. As far as your comment about the Romans..I was absolutely amazed at the things they were doing thousands of years ago. It is one thing to learn about it in school, but to actually see it is person, it really blows you away.
Re: Christmas visit to Italy
That is incredible! Very cool. You would think those grinding stone were made out of concrete to look at, wouldn't you?
I really must go and see Pompeii one of these days.
Re: Christmas visit to Italy
Hope to make it there next year. This site has some info on the grinding stones/mill. Not surprisingly, the stone is volcanic pumice.
The Bakery in Pompeii
Re: Christmas visit to Italy
That's awesome. I can assure you, we never had any cool trips like that when I was in school! Lucky kids. I hope they appreciated it.
Re: Christmas visit to Italy
I'm sure I'm not the first to see this problem, but the first line of the article shadows the whole with the thought that perhaps the author needs a better researcher.
"Difficult as it is to trace the origin and development of a commercial corn-grinding industry in Pompeii, there seems no doubt that it was becoming steadily more important in the later Republic."
Corn?! Corn came from the New World.
Re: Christmas visit to Italy
Ooops. Our second daughter had colonial day at school yesterday. Fifth grade.
Re: Christmas visit to Italy
Yes, I noticed that too, but thought perhaps it was a general reference to grains, as in the similar term "barley corn". Could be wrong though.
Re: Christmas visit to Italy
Yeah, that's right, all grain was referred to as "corn". It wasn't until maize came from here that the entomology changed. This had me confused for years, not that I'm not still confused.

As a Thai food enthusiast, I'm always looking for a great place to go for some of my favorite pad Thai.
Luckily, in the San Gabriel Valley, there are endless options for this East Asian cuisine.
After reading some great reviews on a Web site about a small restaurant in Walnut named Bangkok BBQ, I thought I'd give it a try.
Unfortunately, the reviews weren't entirely accurate. Although it's definitely dining on a budget (there are great lunch specials and all-day combos), I wouldn't say that it's the best dining on a budget.
One look through the menu and I just had to order Combo #3, a plate filled with my favorite dish, pad Thai, orange chicken and shrimp fried rice.
Sad to say, I only enjoyed the shrimp fried rice, which was really delicious. The pad Thai was way too sweet, especially since what I love most about this dish is that it traditionally has so many different flavors.
At $9.95, it was a monstrous helping and I only finished about a quarter of the plate.
What really tickled my taste buds though was the soup, which I ordered on a whim after catching a whiff of the steaming soup other patrons sitting very close by were eating.
I opted for a small bowl of spicy coconut soup, knowing that the Combo #3 would be more than enough. It came in a much larger bowl than I imagined and was the burst of flavors I was looking for. The milky broth had a combination of some sweet, a little sour and bit of a spicy kick.
Add in the thick slices of tomatoes, green onions, mushrooms and beef and this was enough to redeem my meal.
What I was really impressed with was the type of service at this restaurant. The man I presume was the owner was the only server during the lunch hour. He was definitely working hard as he ran back and forth to fulfill customers' requests and make sure the kitchen was running smoothly.
The decor at this restaurant was a funny combination. I loved the traditional Thai tapestries and beautiful figures of Thai princesses above the fish tank with colorful tropical fish.
On the other hand, it clashed with the home-kitchen-style white drapes with embroidered roosters.
Either way, this restaurant offers low prices for huge helpings. After trying the delicious soup, I wouldn't mind investigating more into this restaurant. After all, on its menu, it does boast the "Best 100 Thai Food in USA 2007 by Best Thai Food Magazine and Best Express Thai Food in Town by the Taste of Walnut in 1995."
To see for yourself, visit www.bangkokbbq-walnut.com or go to the restaurant, 372 N. Lemon Ave. in Walnut.
For more information, call (909) 468-9784.

Letters: Hillary Clinton, zoo parking, affirmative action
I'd like to remind Ruben that the "real" discussion to which he derisively refers took place last week with closing arguments in Fisher v. Texas before the U.S. Supreme Court – the majority of whom Ruben will probably again label as "beleaguered white males" when the court decides in favor of the white plaintiff, Abigail Fisher. – Dennis J. McCarthy, Ramona
I understand the point of [Navarrette's commentary] and partially agree, but let's don't point out that the majority of students and faculty are white, because we both know it is a good reason for that to be, whether some of us want to agree or not. Let's go back to what is fair – telling all the students, weather black, white, Hispanic, Asian or any other, that AFFIRMATIVE ACTION is no longer there to lower the admission standards for them and let them in, that from now on, only their own effort and the grades they accumulate, from K-12, will open those doors – nothing else.
That will be fair for all the students and give them back the responsibility, to use their own merits and effort for their own education and advancement, not race or the color of their skin. – Ana Zuniga-Maus, San Diego

UTSA education college hosts visit by Malawi diplomats
(May 14, 2010)--The UTSA College of Education and Human Development (COEHD) recently welcomed a delegation of Malawi diplomats based in Washington, D.C., and representatives of the Malawi Department of Ministry for Education, Science and Technology.
Over the five-day visit, the delegation visited area schools to learn about bilingual education programs, visited with UTSA deans and vice presidents and also had a chance to experience San Antonio's Fiesta spirit by attending the Texas Cavaliers River Parade.
One of the schools the delegation observed was San Antonio ISD's Bonham Academy, located just west of downtown. The bilingual curriculum at Bonham is recognized around the state for producing students that master both the English and Spanish languages.
The delegates visited Ms. Sanchez' fourth grade class where students were creating video "trailers," similar to those seen in movie theaters to promote upcoming feature films. In Spanish and education-based, the students illustrated and narrated the videos with background music to promote books they enjoyed reading and would recommend to their fellow students.
"We are learning how the schools teach language, more specifically about reading at the earliest age possible," said Rafael Agabu, deputy director of the Ministry for Education, Science and Technology. "In Malawi, we have Chiccewa, our local language, and English, which we teach separately. Here, they are interchanging the languages and this is an area we are interested in and can learn from."
Down the hall in Ms. Rosales' first grade classroom, the students amazed the delegates with their knowledge of English, Spanish and Chinese.
"We want our students to be prepared for the workforce to compete in a global market," said Janet Perez, Bonham Academy principal. "These students have so much to contribute and these experiences are going to only enhance that preparedness."
When the tour was over, as a memento of their visit, the students presented and pinned homemade Fiesta medals on the delegates to take back home with them on their 31-hour flight.
The visit was in conjunction with COEHD's "Read Malawi" project, an international humanitarian effort with the U.S. Agency for International Development to provide educational materials and teacher training to improve literacy rates of children in Africa. The three-year, $13-million cooperative agreement between UTSA and the Republic of Malawi will provide 120 book titles in both English and Chichewan, the native language of Malawi, to 1,000 of the country's 5,000 public schools.

From the Publisher"[The case studies] are great situations that the students seem to understand when applying the concept from the chapter. Furthermore, they are relatively current situations, not something that happened in their grandparents early years". Jennifer (Symonds) Morrison, University of Alabama
"I particularly like the use of cases and supplemental reading at the end of each chapter. The author uses contemporary and vivid examples to illustrate the theoretical concepts in each chapter. Also, extensive review of the relevant literature is incorporated through out the text". Dr. Vidu Soni, Central Michigan University

The removal of "Brendan Eich, Mozilla co-founder and creator of the JavaScript programming language" should make us all very concerned. He was not pressured to leave for what he did but what he believes. Here's the central point that Joseph Sunde makes in his post at the Mozilla's Statement of Faith and the Altars of Conformity:
…amidst all the pooh-poohing of the baker, the florist, and the photographer — whose complaints actually are bound up in the activities at hand – those very same critics casually proceed to make people the central thing. As the statement of faith clearly concludes, it is Eich who is the aggressor, and Eich who must be removed. The peace and tranquility of the interwebs is at stake, and influential proponents of archaic institutions mustn't be allowed to stand in its way.
This isn't to reject out of hand the right–even the obligation–of corporation to shape their business around specific moral norms.
Business are culture-makers at the core, and thus, conscience ought to guide such activities, from the bottom to the top and back again.
At the same time, however
…one can't help but suspect this is less about a distinct corporate conscience than it is about blind cultural conformity. But then one remembers that, in this case, conformity the conscience, and there's not a whole lot more going on "up there" than a raw fear of that looming Idol of Egalitarianism.
The central "virtue" of conformity is loyalty, to follow orders and to think along with the group. Nothing, it seems to me, can be further from what is necessary for a dynamic and growing business. Much less is it compatible with a free people and the value of the person.
In Christ,
+Fr Gregory
