I am obsessed with Fast Food. Not as in I eat it a lot, often, or ever, but as in I pay a lot of attention to it and news involving it often grabs my attention faster than you can grab a McDonalds Angus Snack Wrap. My ears delight in news of a McDonalds cheeseburger that sat on a table, without rotting, for 7 years. I'll never get over how Burger King has added a breakfast scramble to their AM menu. And I am endlessly intrigued by how many ways Taco Bell can essentially re-brand, re-name, and re-sell the same combination of circus animal meat and barely-literal cheese.
So imagine my excitement today when I stumbled upon Buzz Feed, which is featuring REGIONAL FAST FOOD SPECIALTIES. These things are always a hoot. For those of you not in the know, regional specialties are odd (and often amazing) fast food offerings that you could only get if you hopped on a plane to another country. My question: why can't Americans get these foods? I blame faulty testing or knowledge of marketing segments. Sure, people eat odd crap in other countries, but this is AMERICA where we gladly support anything that is deep-fried, bacon-ensconced, and injected with cheese sauce.
Here are the foods you simply can't get here in the states. How many of them would YOU buy? I know I'd want to try at least three of them (that Pizza Hut pizza should be the standard-bearer for This Is Why You're Fat).
wacky asian pizza pies before. As I have never traveled abroad, I must depend on Fast Food trends to understand that Japanese love gross, sperm-looking seafood, and they REALLY love it deep fried and put on dough that would never be called pizza anywhere else. Here's an example available only at Pizza Hut in Japan. It's called the "Golden Fortune" which I think is also the name of the Chinese Food takeout place by my apartment which, unfortunately, does not serve this Frankenpizza. While I am not particularly interested in topping my pizza with shrimp, "crab sticks" fish, pineapple and/or lime, I think having a crust made entirely out of "Cheesy Dough Bites" might be a secret gift sent by God to remind us that he does indeed exist, and that he wants us to die of heart attacks so he can see and hang out with us sooner.
There are many other delightful country-specific treats for you to check out, and they're all over at Buzzfeed. Check 'em out. And if you ever end up abroad, pick me up one and ship it back here.

Diarrhea is defined as the rapid movement of fecal matter through the digestive tract, involving poor absorption of water, nutrients and electrolytes and passage of soft, watery, unformed stools. Most people are familiar with diarrhea, whether from personal experience, having kids or owning pets. Diarrhea usually is a sign that something is bothering the dog's gastrointestinal tract. Some cases of diarrhea are caused by minor digestive distractions, such as when dogs eat people food or get into the garbage. Diarrhea can also be caused by more serious problems, like poisoning or systemic disease. Diarrhea can come on quickly, be severe and then go away. It also can happen gradually and last for a long time. Affected dogs often are nauseous and have intestinal cramping and pain. They can become dehydrated and depressed. Unless the underlying reasons for diarrhea are resolved, dogs can suffer from this unpleasant condition indefinitely.
Diarrhea is usually a symptom of some underlying medical condition; it is not a disease or illness in and of itself. Nonetheless, diarrhea in dogs does require prompt attention and treatment, both for the comfort and welfare of the affected animal and for the benefit and wellbeing of its owner. Diarrhea can be acute, which means that it comes on quickly, typically is quite severe and then goes away. It also can be a chronic
Dogs with diarrhea will have a variety of symptoms, depending upon the underlying cause of their condition and whether the disorder is acute (sudden in onset and short in duration) or chronic (slow in onset and lasting for a long time). In many cases, diarrhea is accompanied by gastrointestinal upset, which can include nausea, cramping and abdominal pain – generally, what we would recognize as an "upset tummy." Chronic diarrhea can cause a dog to
Dogs that come to a veterinary clinic because of diarrhea may be suffering from an extensive array of underlying problems. However, the initial assessment of the animal will be the same. The veterinarian will take a thorough history from the dog's owner, including information about the dog's living environment, vaccination status, diet and the circumstances surrounding the onset of diarrhea. She will also perform a complete physical examination, which will include a rectal examination. Fresh
Diarrhea, as most people know, is the passage of loose, unformed stools. Both sudden-onset (acute) and chronic diarrhea can be life-threatening, especially in young puppies, older dogs, dogs with weak or compromised immune systems and those with underlying medical disorders such as diabetes, Addison's disease (hypoadrenocorticism) or hypothyroidism. Owners should take their dogs to a veterinarian if they have acute bloody diarrhea for more than a day or if they have had chronic bouts of

Drag strip legend
The Museum is proud to own Hogslayer, the awesome 1760cc machine with British-made Norton engines that ruled American drag strips in the mid-Seventies. Tom "TC" Christenson from Kenosha, Wisconsin rolled out his first double-engined Norton in 1970. Using throttle-controlled fuel injection on a pair of tuned twin-cylinder Commando motors, he called the bike Hogslayer to taunt his Harley-Davidson rivals.
In 1972 the snorting 180mph Norton won two national showdowns in New Jersey and California, humbling top H-D and Triumph aces and setting the standing-start quarter-mile record at 8.52 seconds.
Christenson went on to win every major drag race in US, flying the Norton flag in front of huge crowds and on TV. Hogslayer also made guest appearances in Britain, running Europe's first sub-nine seconds quarter-mile at Silverstone in 1974. In 1975, TC blasted to four sub-eight second runs at California's Ontario Raceway, being only narrowly beaten into the "sevens" by a 3.2 litre rival with three Japanese four-cylinder engines.
Hogslayer was continually developed with the latest drag racing innovations and ever-wider rear tyres to make use of an astonishing 300-plus horsepower. John Gregory of Sunset Motors, a Norton agency in Kenosha, was behind many key technical developments, including the two-speed transmission with a self-feeding clutch. The engines relied on mostly standard Norton parts, but were adapted to run on nitro-methane fuel and enlarged from 750cc to 880cc.

Costa Mesa, CA (PRWEB) April 26, 2011
Consumers nationwide are dealing with exceptionally high levels of debt and struggling to get back on solid ground with their financial footing.
In a recent report from Equifax, the credit report agency, the credit card burden of many families is equal 17% of their income. This debt amount could be higher as it fails to consider specific store-based cards. Experian has analyzed recent consumer spending habits to reveal the average person is now burdened with more than $4,000 of debt.
The top five cities struggling with debt are San Antonio: Texas, Jacksonville: Florida, Atlanta: Georgia, Honolulu: Hawaii, and Dallas: Texas.
Morgan Drexen supports attorneys across the country helping consumers in these states facing high levels of debt. Attorneys nationwide have reported high numbers of consumers engaging in the attorney-based debt resolution program.
For Daniel Birkey, nights were restless as his debt escalated after losing his job. Birkey was laid off after 25 years working as an accounting manager in Iowa.
"Our income fell drastically and we just got behind," says Birkey.
Birkey engaged with the J D Hass Law Firm in Iowa in a final attempt to resolve his $80,000 debt.
J D Haas uses the automated software and paralegal services of Morgan Drexen. The software provided by Morgan Drexen allows attorneys nationally to work efficiently and quickly to settled consumer debt.
"Creditors tend to take extra care when dealing with a debtor's attorney. Expert legal knowledge allows counsel to analyze carefully the validity of a claim and often successfully defend a debtor in the event a creditor resorts to a lawsuit. Creditors trying to obtain payment against debt that is in "collection" mode will often settle for less than the full amount, provided they are paid quickly," says Thomas O'Brien, partner at Paul Hastings and regulatory advisor for Morgan Drexen.
"Anytime we called there and asked the attorney any questions he were able to provide us with the information that we needed they were very helpful. Within nine months of contacting the attorney, I had settlements on all my debts. Anytime we called, there, asked any questions they were able to provide us with the information that we needed they were very helpful," says Birkey.
Attorneys nationwide who use the support services of Morgan Drexen benefit from their complex automation through productivity and efficiency. The process encourages accuracy and often accelerates the settlement process.

The towns of Beaumont and Port Arthur are located 20 miles apart in extreme southeast Texas. Port Arthur is located on Sabine Lake, a body of water deep enough to support ocean shipping and connected to the Gulf by a canal. Beaumont is inland. The area's destiny changed in 1901 when the first oil well blew in the nearby Spindletop field, and it changed again in September 2005 when Hurricane Rita swept through the area. The 1901 event turned the area from a quiet lumber and port town into a thriving oil and gas economy, with one of the largest concentrations of oil refineries, oil, and petrochemical-related businesses in the state.
The heavy industry and gentle decline of some of that industry took its toll on the city and its environs, but renewal programs in recent years put some life back into the cities, especially the downtown areas. Low living costs and nearby outdoor recreation opportunities brought some people back into the area. These folks found a small-town life and cost environment while being close enough to Houston to benefit from its big-city amenities.
The area is located on a flat coastal plain with mostly treeless areas near the coast giving way to large pine forests moving inland. The climate is a modified humid subtropical suitable for year-round outdoor activities. Sea breezes usually prevent summer temperature extremes. The area lies far enough south that cold air masses are moderated although freezing temperatures occur a few times a year. The Gulf and evenly distributed rainfall give the area the highest relative humidity in the nation. Cloudy, rainy weather is most common in the winter. Heavy rainfall occurs during thunderstorms and infrequent tropical storms. Slower moving storms bring longer periods of rain in spring and fall. Fog occurs especially in winter and spring.

So my hubby & I have some BIG news! We are excited to announce that we have been given the opportunity to bring awareness about natural childbirth & inspiration to mothers across the world in a huge way! To show how beautiful & empowering birth can be we will be LIVE streaming video of our BIRTH online. Yup, I just said I will be birthing my baby at home & the world will be able to watch it live! A national childbirth education company, is making this event possible. This cause is really close to my heart. Giving women birth options, educating & empowering women during the childbearing years, and bringing awareness to the treatment of women and infants in childbirth, including the overuse of drugs and interventions, and lack of informed consent, is a basic women's rights and human rights issue.
So this is not to be a "Show Off" but to bring awareness to what birth can be, make a difference in the birth movement, and to also bless MANY women in my area in the long run with more options by bringing an amazing maternity & wellness center here to my area. There is a bigger picture here other than showing off my adorably cute baby #4 ;)!The reality is, when you feel called to do something you're passionate about, sometimes you have to be brave to make the biggest impact! :)
If you would like to join the facebook event page so you can follow along & to read more about our mission please message me. I dont think I am allowed to post links here?
My friends and family think I am CRAZY!?! LOL ! I could truly use all the support from like-minded mamas! Thanks!
nicole, wife & very blessed mom of 2 fun boys '03 & '05 & sweet girl '10. Due 1-6-13

**Best Design, 3rd Independent Game Developers Contest** **Professional Finalist, 2011 Indie Game Challenge** Vanessa Saint-Pierre Delacroix And Her Nightmare is a 2D platform game mapped to a 3D cube. Players control Vanessa, a young girl with a penchant for puzzles. One day, while exploring her father's antique shop, she discovers a mysterious, mechanical box. The device magically sucks Vanessa and her world inside. Now, Vanessa must use her considerable puzzle-solving skills to twist and turn her way to freedom, in this award-winning game from independent developer Bad Pilcrow. Across more than three dozen levels, players must guide Vanessa from her starting position to an exit. Standing between Vanessa and freedom are a number of classic platforming mechanics, including spikes to avoid, blocks to move, and enemies to dodge. The twist? Her two-dimensional world lies on the surface of a three-dimensional cube, and players must rotate each face to find clever solutions to a wide variety of problems. Vanessa Saint-Pierre Delacroix And Her Nightmare features an online leaderboard to empower competitive gamers. By improving their time and number of turns in each level, players may increase their scores and work their way up to the Top 25. For gamers that have mastered the thirty-six story levels, Vanessa also features downloadable content. Players may go online to access even more challenges, further extending the entertainment value of the game. Music from acclaimed underground artist Telethon drives the memorable soundtrack – a blend of classical Baroque and 8bit nostalgia. The Astringent Game Journal writes, "It is definitely a soundtrack that both stands out on its own, and serves as an excellent complement to the dark atmosphere the game exudes."
7/9/2013Great game
12/29/2011The game is simple, and yet complex. The innovative thought behind this game is definitely worth the $0.99. It's challenging and it makes you think on the spot. Vanessa is a game everyone should buy!
12/13/2011Wow wow... Very nice,just bought it
11/21/2011Definitely enjoyed it! Great style, great music.
11/7/2011okay, but not as original as I had been led to beleieve
10/10/2011I love this game. I wish there was more of a story though.
9/16/2011Great concept and product except for int thing keeping me for buying the game any giving 5 stars. The genes internal use of the accelerometer os off, making it have the "cube" always at an angel unless I hold my phone in a very weird and uncomfterble way. I know its the game because all other apps and games that use it don't have a problem.
8/3/2011It can be better if u had something going after you .
7/16/2011A simple mechanic to understand, but fun puzzles. Also like the art style and the music is great.

GAME refuses to sell Oblivion for PS3
Video game retailer GAME won't be stocking Ubisoft's latest PS3 title due to a spat between the two companies.
According to our sistersite Gamesdog.co.uk retailer, GAME has said that it won't be stocking The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion for the PS3 in its 400 shops across the UK and Ireland.
The game, developed by Bethesda, has been popular on the Xbox 360 and PC, so it follows that demand would be high for the PS3 but most oddly, neither Ubisoft nor GAME have commented on why the situation has come about.
We shall, however, endeavour to bring you the latest on this strange situation when we have it.

Scarola alle Acciughe
There are basically two ways of cooking greens: the long, slow method, and this one, where much of their water content is still present, leaving the leaves with a definite chew.
YIELD: Makes 6 to 8 servings
Heat a 10- to 12-inch sauté pan over medium-high heat until hot. Add the olive oil, anchovies, and garlic and cook just until the garlic is light golden brown, about 30 seconds. Add the greens and cook, stirring constantly, until wilted, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, squeeze the lemon juice over, and serve.

AC/DC at Amazon.com
ACDC Unveils Massive North American Tour Dates
AC/DC first formed in "the land down under" more than 30 years ago by Malcolm and Angus Young. The band offered a unique, guitar-heavy hard rock sound for their listeners and after a few years, their music began to catch on with fans in their native Sydney, Australia. In 1975, following an increasing buzz from listeners and a revamped band lineup, AC/DC, who picked up their name from a sewing machine label, released their first album, High Voltage.Following their debut release, AC/DC has found itself on a steady stream of rock and roll success, releasing more than 20 albums to date, many of which have went on to become multi-platinum sellers. The most widely recognized of these, is 1980's Back in Black, which has sold more than 42 million copies worldwide, becoming the second highest-selling album of all time. AC/DC have also produced some of the most memorable and widely recognized rock singles of all time over the years. Among these are the ever-popular Highway to Hell, You Shook me All Night Long and Stiff Upper Lip.On top of their commercial success, AC/DC have garnered a reputation from critics and fans alike, as one of the most influential bands in rock music history. To date, they have sold more than 200 million albums worldwide, ranked fourth on VH1's list of the "100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock" and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2003.In October of 2008, the band is set to release their twentieth studio album, entitled Black Ice. To promote and celebrate the upcoming release, AC/DC have announced plans for a massive North American tour, set to hit the Untied States and Canada from late October to mid-December of this year. The tour, which is already selling out fast, is expected to be one of the biggest and highest-grossing of the year. Tickets are hard to get right now.
AC/DC has its sound wired for Tour :
McDonald's has had the formula down for decades. The product is always the same, no matter the place or time. Customers know exactly what they'll get when they go in the door.AC/DC has it down, too - a band that has never strayed from its sound or message, much to the delight of fans and puzzlement of rock critics.After an eight-year absence (that brought the release of live DVDs but no new music), the brothers Young come back as conquering heroes. Their upcoming tour is sold out (including the Pepsi Center, where the $89 tickets are going for as much as $1,800 each through Ticketmaster's own scalping, er, reselling, service). In an era of great national worry, they offer an escape to a simpler time, when rocking out was all that mattered.The new album, Black Ice, hits stores today, but only Wal-Mart stores, part of a brilliant and ruthless marketing plan that's going to move a ton of physical units, a feat most of their peers can't do anymore. But AC/DC fans are old-school; watch for this to be one of the biggest sellers of the year.That's largely because Black Ice delivers yet again. It's not hard to tell what's on their minds, given the song titles: Rock 'n' Roll Train, She Likes Rock 'n' Roll, Rock 'n' Roll Dream, Rocking All the Way. You're not going to find any protest songs here, not even War Machine, a song that, lyrically, makes no sense and takes no stance other than "Kick your foot through the door / Hit the deck, know the score." Stormy May Day explores some slide-blues territory.The single Rock 'n' Roll Train has a riff that sounds almost more Stones-like than vintage AC/DC. The gentle-starting Rock 'n' Roll Dream comes as close to a ballad as AC/DC will likely ever get.There's nothing here that's going to get a better response in concert than Highway to Hell or Back in Black once those Gibsons get fired up. That doesn't matter. It'll be one seamless blend of rock as AC/DC storms America this fall. - By Mark Brown

Holmatro's Extreme Winch Handle "Palm" is the lightest one-touch model on the market weighing in at about 1.5lbs and measuring 10" long x 1" wide. Forged out of durable saltwater-resistant aluminum and featuring a hard plastic outer for a handgrip, Holmatro's Extreme Winch Handle is designed with enhanced corrosion resistance in mind. The weight, one-touch design, and ergonomic lines are perfect for handling and control.
A single 'tooth' acts as an easy locking/unlocking mechanism that automaticly secures the handle to the winch socket when placing. Holmatro's improved grab-bar running along the inner half-length of its top surface allows a sailor to quickly disengage the patent pending locking mechanism by doing just that - grabbing the bar. This action actuates the mechanism to unlock the handle in a natural way. No thinking, just grabbing. The handle comes equipt with derlin ball bearings to help the palm grip the winch for more efficient turns.
The best feature of the Extreme Winch Handle is its one-hand release. The one-hand release is designed for when you're in the position of removing the winch handle, all you really have to do is press down with the palm of your hand as you grab it, and Wallah! - the winch handle is off in less than a second. No twisting or flicking any knobs, just a simple press of the palm. It's perfect for unexpected tacks and ideal for smaller boats with limited space.
In comparison to other winch handles, Holmotro's Extreme-Palm handle is more of a high performance racing winch handle for high loads on smaller vessels. Lewmar makes 2 similar One Touch winches that use a plunger pin and ball mechanism that automatically retract the locking mechanism when the handle is squeezed. The Dax OneTouch has a wider release button and is designed to meet the needs of a cruising sailor on boats where sail loads are not usually very high. All winches use the same one-touch design and feature ball bearing rotation in the grip. It's typically better to use a two-handed handle when dealing with larger sails and bigger loads. Although, this does depend on the size and design of the winch handle.
To see the Holmatro Extreme-Palm in action take a look at the short video below...

The Lasso: Roping in the best of the web
Updated Mar 17, 2014 - 3:51 pm
'McConnelling' becomes new internet sensation
Who would have thought that Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky, would have triggered an internet craze?
According to The Washington Post, McConnell's campaign released an ad with nothing but instrumental music playing under clips of a smiling McConnell.
And it was with those 2 1/2 minutes that "McConnelling" was born.
Pieces of the ad were then used everywhere, from re-edits of intros of '90s sitcoms to inserting other musical pieces while the ad would play.
Even "The Daily Show" jumped on the "McConnelling" bandwagon, asking viewers to see if there was any song that did NOT work with the ad. So far...nope.

The Midnight Dress
by Karen Foxlee
No current Talk conversations about this book.
The daughter of an alcoholic who drifts from town to town, Rose Lovell has never had a home, a place where she fit in. In her fifteenth year, the pair stumbles into the beach town of Leonora, and something like settling occurs. Rose and her father still live in their vehicle, but on her first day at the local high school she makes a friend – the vivacious, picture-perfect Pearl. Pearl is pretty and smart, as chatty as Rose is reticent, and she barges past Rose's reluctance to drag the new girl into Leonora's social life. She convinces Rose that she must participate in the annual harvest festival, the biggest event the town has to offer, and sends her off to talk with Edie Baker, a seamstress who lives in a dilapidated, crumbling building at the edge of town. Edie agrees to help Rose make a dress from a stunning midnight blue fabric, and as they sew she regales Rose with tales of her family. But the night of the harvest festival turns disastrous when one of the high school girls disappears, leaving little evidence or clues for the detective summoned to solve the case.
Each chapter is named after a specific type of stitch – 'catch stitch', 'spiderweb stitch', etc – and opens with a few paragraphs from after the night of the harvest festival. These segments are from the perspective of Detective Glass as he struggles to figure out what happened to the missing girl. The story than jumps back in time and switches to Rose's life in the weeks before the festival as she hangs out with Pearl and becomes acquainted with the quirky, insular town of Leonora. The two narratives create a tension – we know that something very bad will happen, casting a shadow over the idyllic life of the 'before' scenes, and as readers we often know something that Glass does not, and wish there was a way to guide him to the correct clue. This way of storytelling keeps the story tight and propels it forward.
This is an excellent exercise in magical realism. There are hints of magic in the way that Edie Baker talks and lives, but it's never overt, and could easily be a byproduct of the town's collective imagination. Or maybe there really is something special about Edie and her sewing. I like the subtlety of it, and the fact that the reader can interpret this magic however they'd like.
With lovely, evocative writing and two captivating heroines – one the beaming ideal teenage innocent, the other a rougher, grittier outsider longing for inclusion - The Midnight Dress is an intriguing mystery and a fun read.
Nice suspense thriller about a loner teenager finding a home for herself for the first time.
I was completely captivated by this story. The combination of the exotic (well, exotic to me, at least) setting and the compelling main character made for a page-turning read, that once I finished, I wanted to start all over again. That doesn't usually happen to me in a book, which makes me glad that this is the last book of the year that I finished, letting me end my reading on a high note.
So let's start with the setting. Rose and her father move to a small, rural town in Australia, which is described so well by the author that I could feel the humidity closing in on me at times. Admittedly, I don't like heat and humidity at all, so reading this book sometimes made me want to fan myself (or at least step outside for a moment. I live in the Chicago area, so it's nice and cold right now). The town, itself, isn't described so much as some of the parts that are outside of town, like where Rose and her father live, and where the dressmaker's house is. I've never been to Australia, so I wasn't familiar with some of the plants and animals in the book. However, this just made me want to look them up, and hope they were all real.
And speaking of settings, the house that Edie (the dressmaker) lives in is a character all unto itself. The author creates something that seems to be more than a house, almost, where there might just be small bits of magic happening. It's not the loveliest house; actually, it's far from it. "The house is falling apart. There's a tree growing through the front stairs. Everywhere there's the detritus of the forest. The leaves drying in small piles in the corners of rooms and seedpods jammed in the floorboards. The curtains are dappled with mildew and festooned with spiderwebs." (p. 45-46). But somehow, despite its condition (and apparent smell, I'd imagine, considering the mildew and constant humidity), it's fascinating. It's hard to imagine Edie living in it, but at the same time, it's completely appropriate.
The characters are well-written, and not all of them are likable (which is perfectly fine with me - I don't need to like a character, as long as I find them interesting). Rose is a bit prickly and difficult, and a real opposite to Pearl. Her home situation is also the opposite of Pearl, so I found it interesting that we have two teen characters who are similar and different, and we have the adults that way, as well. I liked that not all of the adults were wonderful, and helpful, and supportive. What I mean is: Rose's father isn't that great of a father, and I liked that he's this way, because it felt more realistic to me.
One of the things that I enjoyed in this book was that there is a story within a story going on here. You get Rose's story, in the present (more or less), as well as the story that is going on right after someone (actually, two people) go missing. You get the perspective from Rose, but you also get the perspective from Detective Glass. I also liked that when Rose meets Edie and gets to know her, that Edie tells her stories of her own life. So, it's stories wrapped in stories (like a wonderful present in a beautiful box filled with layers of colorful tissue paper). I wasn't always sure what was going to happen, either, which made it a great read.
This is one of the most beautiful books that I've read, mostly because it's beautifully written, but also because I felt like it was intelligently written. It made me want to look up things, and places. It made me imagine things, and it made me feel like I wanted to know some of the characters better. It made me wonder about what happened to some of them after the book. It's a talent not all authors have, and one that I really appreciate.
I got a copy of this book to review through the Amazon Vine program. I thought the premise was fascinating and had heard some great things about this book. It ended up being a very interesting and creepy young adult horror/paranormal read.
This is about a girl named Rose who moves with her nomadic father to the city of Paradise. There she meets a girl named Pearl who convinces Rose to have an old woman named Evie help Rose make a dress for the upcoming Harvest Festival. As things start to unfold, tragedy befalls the town of Paradise...all because of the events surrounding the midnight blue dress that Evie and Rose make.
The book was formatted in a really interesting way. Each chapter starts with an italicized portion that is in current time, then the book goes back to the past and the majority of the chapter is spent in the past figuring out how Evie and Pearl got to where they are in the present.
The writing is beautiful, the pace of the story is deliberate and mysterious. This is basically about an unlikely friendship between two girls who are each suffering through their own problems. It is a creepy story, mainly because of Rose's unpredictable and sometimes drunken father and because of an older man named Paul that Pearl is infatuated with.
Rose is an interesting character. She moves a lot and has a hard time making friends. Her father is also very poor, so she doesn't have much in the way of material items. For some reason Pearl takes an interest in Rose and kind of adopts her; Rose is stunned by this but also somewhat grateful to finally have someone in her life that she can share things with.
Pearl is also an interesting character. She is a romantic and constantly dreams of leaving town and exploring the wider world. Pearl thinks everything is beautiful and that it is all a game. She expects the best of everyone, most of the time this brings out the best in everyone but sometimes it leads people to expect things from her they shouldn't.
There is some magical realism in here, but when I think back to the story everything can pretty much be explained through non-magical means. There are hints that the dress Rose and Evie make is something more and that Evie has roots in witchcraft.
There are some pretty big twists right at the end of the story. You totally think you know what is going on and then bam! the story takes you by surprise. It doesn't feel contrived or anything, and after you find out what really happened you find yourself thinking back to the story and then going "Huh, yeah, that completely makes sense."
Overall this was an intriguing book. While not the type of book I would normally read, it was an engaging book that was beautifully written. The story was told in a very creative way and I love how we got glimpses of the present while we were being told the story that led to that present. I would recommend to those who love creepy thriller-like reads with some magical realism in them.
Had this book not been chosen by my face-to-face reading group, I probably wouldn't have come across it, but I'm glad I did. Karen Foxlee is a new-to-me Australian author.
Apart from anything else, the structure of the book is unusual and interesting. After the annual Harvest Parade in which they both participated, two girls are missing in a coastal sugar cane town in mid-northern Queensland.
Each of the chapters is headed with the name of a stitch used in tailoring or embroidery.
Anchor Stitch
Oyster Stitch
Catch Stitch
Straight Stitch
Binding Stitch
Spider Web Stitch etc. etc. (I didn't know there were so many stitches)
And the reader's attention is captured straight away in the opening of the first chapter, Anchor Stitch:
Will you forgive me if I tell you the ending? There's a girl. She's standing where the park outgrows itself and the manicured lawn gives way to longer grass and the stubble of rocks. She is standing in no-man's-land, between the park and the place where the mill yards begin.
It's night and the cane trains are still.
It is unbearably humid and she feels the sweat sliding down her back and she presses her hands there into the fabric to stop the sensation that is ticklishly unpleasant. She lifts up the midnight dress to fan her legs. It's true, the dress is a magical thing, it makes her look so heavenly.
After a couple of pages from this narrator, the chapter continues with the story from the beginning. Rose Lovell arrives in town with her father at the Paradise caravan park where they will live for the next few months. She meets Pearl Kelly in the next day or so when she goes to school. They will be the central characters of the story, but there is also Edie Baker, an eccentric dressmaker with a history, Rose's alcoholic father, and Paul Rendell who runs a Book Exchange in the back of his mother's shop.
The first chapter sets the pattern for the rest. There is always a preface from the narrator, helpfully written in italics, and then the continuing story. There's the feeling of two paths, with the main story slowly catching up to the point where the narrator's brief snippets begin.
The two teenage girls are trying to establish their identities. Rose has been on the move with her father for a number of years after the apparent drowning suicide of her mother. She has had little chance to establish friends, and she connects surprisingly well with both Pearl and Edie, who agrees to help her make her dress for the Harvest Parade. Pearl is trying to work out who she is too, looking for her Russian father, by writing to men surnamed Orlov in Moscow. As Rose and Edie make the dress, so the tragedies of Edie's life emerge.
After a stuttering start, the book gathers pace. The author drops information all over the place and there are many little stories for the reader to piece together. It is a very effective technique.
So for me, Karen Foxlee is a new author to watch out for. A great book, not just a coming of age novel, but a well constructed mystery on many levels.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0375856455, Hardcover)Quiet misfit Rose doesn't expect to fall in love with the sleepy beach town of Leonora. Nor does she expect to become fast friends with beautiful, vivacious Pearl Kelly, organizer of the high school float at the annual Harvest Festival parade. It's better not to get too attached when Rose and her father live on the road, driving their caravan from one place to the next whenever her dad gets itchy feet. But Rose can't resist the mysterious charms of the town or the popular girl, try as she might.
Pearl convinces Rose to visit Edie Baker, once a renowned dressmaker, now a rumored witch.

Karen Foxlee's breathtaking novel weaves friendship, magic, and a murder mystery into something moving, real, and distinctly original.

Along with releasing the iOS 6.1.3 firmware in March, Apple also released an update for the Apple TV bringing it to version 5.2.1. Just like the iOS 6.1.3 update, the Apple TV 5.2.1 firmware patched the Evasi0n exploit used to Jailbreak the Apple TV Untethered, but also added support for the new Hulu Plus app.
Those that use Hulu a lot will definitely want to take advantage of the new Hulu Plus app, but for those that rely on a Jailbreak you would have been stuck on the Apple TV 5.2 firmware as there was no Jailbreaking solution (even tethered) for the 5.2.1 firmware.
Luckily the FireCore Dev-Team have announced over Twitter today that Seas0nPass has been updated to support Jailbreaking the 2nd generation Apple TV on 5.2.1 tethered. This means if you don't mind sacrificing your Untethered Apple TV Jailbreak you can update to the 5.2.1 firmware and then re-Jailbreak using the latest version of Seas0nPass.
Keep in mind however, that it could be some time before another Untethered Apple TV Jailbreak is released so we recommend only updating to 5.2.1 if you absolutely must get your hands on the new Hulu Plus app.
You can download the new version of Seas0nPass from the iJailbreak Downloads Section. Let us know if you will be upgrading in the comments section below.

Strength and Endurance Program

Thank you for your thoughtful answers (even when on your honeymoon in Ben's case!).
Let me see if I can summarize the advice/perspective I've received here:
1.) First and foremost, 3 endurance workouts a week is a MINIMUM for building my base back up. 4-5 is much better, even if it means lower initial time/distance.
2.) Strength can be maintained (more or less) by keeping up intensity while reducing volume. Two sessions a week is probably the realistic max (assuming a "whole body" type session--squat/press/pull, etc).
3.) Perhaps most importantly--it seems as though endurance runners (who want to be strong) prefer to put running first in their day, then strength train later (ordering their efforts by priority of importance).
So it sounds like the best options for me are to either:
a.) Workout five days a week, with two strength sessions and three endurance sessions on separate days. This would *seem* to be the best compromise for both purposes.
b.) Workout four to five days a week, but on two of those days, add a strength session in the afternoon (assuming morning runs). Adjust all sessions as needed to keep building endurance and avoid burning out.
Considering what I know of my daily/weekly schedule, I'm thinking option "a" will have to be my choice for now, re-evaluating every four weeks or so and adjusting as necessary. Perhaps a Wendler 5/3/1 with a two-day-per-week split, throwing in minimum assistance work on the strength days? (I'm assuming a little bit of restraint on the max-rep squat & deadlift sets will be called for).
One last question if I may: For someone who wants to be a good runner who is strong, is it best to build the endurance base first, then add the strength on top of that (ie, have I done it all backwards recently)? And what are realistic strength benchmarks (squat, DL, etc.) for such a person?

Reese Witherspoon may produce and appear in "The Engagements"
Has Reese Witherspoon found her next role? TheWrap reports Reese is in talks to produce "The Engagements," an adaptation of a J. Courtney Sullivan novel. If the film gets made, she may have a role in it, though there's no indication how big a part it would be.
The book, which has yet to be released, was found by the actress' production company, who brought it to the attention of Fox 2000. It's an ensemble story, that follows a diamond engagement ring. The story begins in the 1930s, ending in the present day, telling the tales of five different relationships.
If this movie doesn't happen with Witherspoon, she's not hurting for work. The Oscar winner has roles in the upcoming films "Mud," and "Devil's Knot," which centers around the trial of the West Memphis Three. She's also starring in "Wish List," the next movie from "Bridesmaids" director Paul Feig.

One of the most lasting images frrom Sam Mendes' Skyfall was of s tiny, porcelain, Union Jack-covered bulldog. The relic - which originates from World War II - was one of the few things that survived the explosion in M's office, and was used rather perfectly symbolically throughout the film. It was a wonderful touch to include in the 23rd James Bond adventure, and it looks like it will be back for number 24.

Why The James Bond Franchise Isn't Goofy Anymore
When James Bond got the reboot treatment a few years back, it came with a new darker, more serious tone. Daniel Craig's version of 007 is a seemingly much more damaged individual than the incarnations played by the likes of Pierce Brosnan and Roger Moore. It's been successful thus far, with Casino Royale and Skyfall being considered two of the greatest Bond movies ever made, but it's still interesting that the franchise would turn its back on that part of its legacy.

Christoph Waltz Might Be Playing This Classic James Bond Villain, Here's Why
So the rumor that caught fire last week was that two time Academy Award winner Christoph Waltz has signed on for a mysterious role in Bond 24. So naturally, people think that his role is that of the film's latest villain. Waltz made his first great impression as an antagonist, and a brilliant one at that. This just makes us think that if Waltz is going to be a baddie in the Bond franchise, he's probably going to be the greatest baddie of all: Ernst Stavro Blofeld.

Is Christoph Waltz The Next Great Bond Villain?
It would appear that the filmmakers behind the James Bond franchise have begun using the Best Supporting Actor Oscar winner pool of the last few years to help them find an appropriate villain.

James Bond Will Head To These Three Countries In Bond 24
In every James Bond movie, there are always a couple of exotic locations that 007 whisks away to. After all, international security can't be completely served if you're just sitting at a desk filing paperwork in England - at least not the type of international security Bond handles. Shooting locations are important to any Bond film because not only does this give us some sort of hint as to where the threat facing the world is coming from, it also hints at the usually amazing set pieces that a good James Bond adventure is based around.

But in England, they're absolutely NUTS for Agent 007, to the point where stories involving the new movie (slated for release November 6th, 2015) take on an almost fanatical level of rumor and conjecture. This happens particularly often in regards to the fabled "Bond theme." Who will be singing it this time for Bond 24?

Skyfall Cinematographer Roger Deakins Won't Be Back For Bond 24
As I explained in my review released just prior to the movie hitting theaters back in 2012, Sam Mendes' Skyfall is a great film for many, many reasons. The story does fascinating things with the James Bond character, puts the franchise in an interesting modern context, and features one of the greatest Bond villains ever in Javier Bardem's Silva. Perhaps its greatest asset, though, is the cinematography of genius Roger Deakins.
