Ten Years of Celebrating Song: Oxford Lieder Festival 2011
In just ten years, the Oxford Lieder Festival has become Britain's most important Lieder festival, with an international following.
Sara Gartland is an emerging singer who brings an enormous talent and a delightful personality to the opera stage. Having sung lighter soprano roles such as Juliette in Gounod's Romeo et Juliette and Violetta in Verdi's La traviata, Gartland is now taking on the title role in Leoš Janáček's dramatic opera Jenůfa.
Madness descends upon Welsh National Opera for its autumn 2015 season, with three new productions that will explore human turmoil through some of the finest musical expressions of madness and the human condition.
American composer Jennifer Higdon has won many awards for her imaginative music. Her percussion concerto received the 2009 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Classical Composition.
Bratislava in Slovakia might seem an unlikely place to come across the opera I gioielli della Madonna (The Jewels of the Madonna) a 1911 rarity written by the Italian/German Ermanno Wolf-Ferrari, a composer best known for his one-act opera Il segreto di Susanna ( Susanna's Secret) and his comedies based on Goldoni.
Last year's Strauss anniversary year — 150 years since his birth — offered, at least in the United Kingdom, a typical number of opportunities and frustrations.
On 6 June, Jonathan Dove's Flight touches down in Kensington, west London. Opera Holland Park is to stage the first London production of Dove's operatic presentation of the real-life story of Mehran Karimi Nasseri, the Iranian exile who, lacking residency rights or refugee status, was forced to live in the departure lounge of Terminal One at Charles de Gaulle Airport for 18 years.
San Diego Opera, the company that General Manager Ian Campbell had scheduled for demolition, proved that it is alive and singing as beautifully as ever. Its 2015 season was cut back slightly and management has become a bit leaner, but the company celebrated its fiftieth season in fine style with a concert that included many of the greatest arias ever written.
Kathleen Ferrier may have been one of the world's finest contraltos but this year's Kathleen Ferrier Awards Final, held at the Wigmore Hall, was all about lyric sopranos.
East Coast Premiere at Opera Philadelphia next season. Performances from Cold Mountain at the Guggenheim in New York this Monday, March 30.
Five Young Singers Named Winners of the 2015 Met National Council Auditions, America's Most Prestigious Vocal Competition
Julia Noulin-Mérat is the principal designer for the Noulin-Merat Studio, an intrepid New York City production design firm that works in theater, film, and television, but emphasizes opera and immersive site-specific theatre.
A brand new opera — especially one that is groundbreaking— can really put an opera company on the map. British composer Barry Seaman's stunning new work, Mirabai, which explores the story of the free thinking, mystic 16th century Hindu princess, Mira, is ambitious on many levels — artistically, technically and creatively.
Bampton Classical Opera has announced that applications are now open for the company's Young Singers' Competition 2015. This biennial competition was first launched in 2013 to celebrate Bampton Classical Opera's 20th birthday, and is aimed at identifying the finest emerging young opera singers currently working in the UK.
Anita Rachvelishvili recently performed the title role in Carmen broadcast by The Metropolitan Opera Live in HD. Here she drops by for a little chat with our Maria Nockin.
This is a revised version of my review of the Sept 5th 1991American premiere of The Death of Klinghoffer, at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. The opera was first performed at Brussels' La Monnaie the previous spring.
"Although there are now more people on this planet than there have ever been before, there are fewer dramatic voices. Something is wrong with that equation. I thought there needs to be some sort of helping hand so that dramatic voices don't fall through the cracks in the system as they advance through their various stages of development."
Anna Prohaska sings Sister Constance in Poulenc's Dialogues des Carmélites at the Royal Opera House. In the same month, she's also in London to sing a recital with Eric Schneider at the Wigmore Hall, and to sing Henze with Sir Simon Rattle at the Barbican Hall.
Garsington Opera celebrates its 25th anniversary this year.
Baritone Brandon Coleman's mother, Linda, knew that 3-year old Brandon would be a great singer when a stranger who had heard him, predicted it.
In just ten years, the Oxford Lieder Festival has become Britain's most important Lieder festival, with an international following.
It began as a labour of love. Ten years ago, Sholto Kynoch, now Artistic Director and driving force behind Oxford Lieder, was a postgraduate student working with Malcolm Martineau. "It started by accident", he says "I just wanted to play Schubert with friends." That first year, they performed just the three Schubert cycles. Schubert remains at the heart of the Oxford Lieder Festival. There are plans for a huge, ambitious Schubertiade in 2014.
The first weekend of this tenth anniversary year is devoted to Schubert, Every song from Die schöne Müllerin D. 795 to the magnificent Der Hirt auf dem Felsen D. 965 on the opening evening, Friday 14th October, with Graham Johnson, Brigid Steinberger and Joy Farrell (clarinet).
Oxford Lieder does things in depth. There's a two day series of workshops, talks and four concerts considering "The Wagner Effect" on art song, with particular emphasis on the songs of Franz Liszt and Hugo Wolf. Very good speakers, including Amanda Glauert, whose "Hugo Wolf and the Wagnerian Inheritance" is a classic. Oxford Lieder is in the process of recording the complete Hugo Wolf song output. Volumes 1 and 2 ( the Mörike songs) are already available through Stone Records. The discs are unusual in that they feature four different singers (Sophie Daneman, Anna Grevelius, James Gilchrist, Stephan Loges and Sholto Kynoch at the piano) and were recorded live last year in the Holywell Music Room, with its perfect, intimate acoustic. This year, the concert on 18th October is being recorded and will feature Wolf's earliest work and his settings of Keller and Ibsen.
An intensive three day series on Swedish Song follows from 21st October. Oxford Lieder has a tradition of presenting Scandinavian music. This year, Miah Persson, Anna Larsson, and Håkan Vramsmo will be singing Rangström, Sjögren, Nystroem and Grieg . There'll also be premieres of two new works, by Tobias Brostöm and Carin Bartosch Edström. Håkan Hagegård will present one of two masterclasses in Swedish song and be on hand for a screening of Ingmar Bergman's film of Mozart's The Magic Flute, in which he sang Papageno.
Although the Oxford Lieder Festival operates on a shoestring, it makes a point of supporting new work. This year's composer in residence is Charlotte Bray, whose work will feature in three separate concerts, culminating with a new song cycle specially commissioned by Oxford Lieder, to be premiered on 27th October by Roderick Williams. There's a composition workshop on the same day, led by Professor Robert Saxton.
The Oxford Lieder Festival is supported by many major singers, like Wolfgang Holzmair, Florian Boesch, Sir Thomas Allen, Sarah Connolly, Dame Felicity Lott, James Gilchrist and Roderick Williams, all of whom will be giving keynote recitals.
Fundamental to the Oxford Lieder ethos, however, is the idea of nurturing new talent. Each year there's a two week residential masterclass for pairs of singers and pianists. developing practical performance skills. Participants attend the whole Festival, so it's intensive, but rewarding. They also give their own concert. There's also a Young Artists Platform which gives awards and opportunities for singers and pianists to perform year round. This concept of practical performance means a great deal to Sholto Kynoch. He loves "the buzz between performer and audience, that allows you to put across what you want to with the music". He adds, with enthusiasm, "That two-way dynamic is something I've tried very hard to get at the Festival, and I think it's one of the festival's strongest features."
Most concerts take place in the Holywell Music Room, where Mozart and Haydn once performed. It's perfect for Lieder because its size allows particularly close communication between performers and the audience. For many that intimacy might be intimidating, but Kynoch's personality encourages performers to give of their best. He gives over 70 concerts a year, as pianist, but he's also a charismatic organizer. The "Oxford Lieder Family" atmosphere, involving both audience and performers, is part of its unique charm. Everyone is valued, whether a big star or a non-professional. There are even workshops for amateurs and part-song recitals in the street to attract people who don't yet realize how much fun singing can be.
For more details, please see the Oxford Lieder Festival website.

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

He was unable to navigate the corridor and his ship was unable to withstand it's forces. His ship destroyed, he used the wreckage to make automated servants for him. He created them in the shape of mechanical wolves. He believed they would be able to aide him in his escape. He floated for eons, as far as he could tell for time had no meaning, searching for an escape. He discovered many portals to unknown realms but could not traverse them, for it would mean his own destruction. He believed himself to be in a purgatory, a prison.

UMass Medical School Health Policy Experts to Present at Academy Health Conference
Sharing Knowledge on Patient-Centered Medical Homes, Behavioral Health and Dental Policy.
Several health policy experts from UMass Medical School will present at Academy Health's annual research meeting, taking place in Baltimore, June 23 - 25.
Bruce Barton, PhD, research professor in the Medical School's Quantitative Health Sciences department, and team leader for research methods at the School's Commonwealth Medicine division, Center for Health Policy and Research, will deliver a podium presentation on interim results from the Massachusetts Patient-Centered Medical Home Initiative.
Dr. Barton's podium presentation will take place on Tuesday, June 25, 11:30 a.m., at the Baltimore Convention Center, room 317.
A multi-disciplinary team from UMass Medical School was instrumental in helping implement and evaluate the Massachusetts patient-centered medical home demonstration project, an initiative that involves 45 primary care practices and multiple payers. Dr. Barton will present findings from a study that analyzed the extent to which practices adopted characteristics central to medical homes, including increased access to care and information, improved care coordination among practice team members and delivery of care that is considered "patient-centered" – a model that supports the involvement of patients and families in all care decisions. Robin Clark, PhD, Judith Steinberg, MD, and Ann Lawthers, ScD, co-authored the study with Dr. Barton.
UMass Medical School, Commonwealth Medicine staff will also be making several pre-conference presentations on behavioral health and state health policy topics to colleagues from around the country, as well as presenting posters during the conference. Below is a complete schedule of presentation and poster sessions.

Fool proof risotto recipe without the fuss of constantly having to stir! I only used 4 x cups of stock but added 1 x cup of white wine. Also added extra vegetables like pumpkin & zucchini. Season with Tuscan seasoning.
4sarahnaomi1 added this comment at 01:52pm Mon 28th November, 2011
Super easy to make. I often make sweet potato and spinach risotto but usually make it the other way (stir it for 20-30 mins). I chose this recipe so that I could just bake it and not have to stir. Like others, I used 1 cup white wine rather than all vegetable stock. It tasted quite bland. If I made this in the future, I would roast the sweet potato in the oven separately, and then mix it in with the risotto at the end. That way it will taste sweeter and not absorb the taste of the vegetable stock - giving it more flavour!

So great!! First time making risotto and it was so simple! Literally like baking a cake! I took up other ppls suggestions like adding capsicum, mushrooms and more onion and 1 cup of white wine with 4 cups stock. The servings sizes must be huge cause we had enough for 4 ppl dinner and leftovers for 4 lunches as well! Such a keeper :)
4.5stephanie_eve added this comment at 11:05pm Mon 6th June, 2011
I added lots more vegetables to mine, including pumpkin and capsicum, just to add more flavour and to add a bit more nutrients into it. I also used a litre of chicken stock and about a cup and a bit of white wine, as I'm not a fan of vegetable stock and every risotto should have wine haha! I also used rump steaks with a little bit of flavoured salt (I used porchini mushroom and parsley salt) and just added those to the oven about 10-15 mins before the risotto had to come out and it meant that I didn't even really have to think about cooking the meat at all and made the meal easier overall (even though it's already super easy as it is).
4.5janebrewer added this comment at 09:05pm Mon 2nd May, 2011
Not so easy for me to make since I don't have a pot that is flame and oven proof-I had to start it in a saucepan and then transfer to a casserole dish. Seeing the serving size (four people) I assumed my casserole dish would be big enough but it only just was-ended up about a mm from the top! So I then had to transfer it to a huge bowl to stir in spinach and parmesan. My first tip: it serves way more than 4. It was completely delicious, though, and very easy (I imagine) and uses few dishes. I used 3 tsp garlic instead of 2tsp and about 3/4 cup parmesan instead of 1/2. Was worried the cheese wouldn't be enough when I saw the size of it but it was very tasty. I grilled a chicken breast to slice and put on top for a more budget friendly dish.

I thought the risotta was a little bit plain but my dad really loved it! I guess it depends how much you like stock. I guess it wouldnt hurt to add some other veges to the risotto to add extra flavour. The lamb was good.
3.5enyfink added this comment at 12:06am Fri 1st October, 2010
Great recipe although could taste the risotto tasted a bit too much like the stock. Be sure to season well.

You cannot fail with this risotto recipe! Easy to make, risotto delicious and moist. Would make again!
5genpav added this comment at 07:20am Mon 7th June, 2010
My partner and I loved this recipe. It's a great alternative from a chicken risotto and is so easy as all you do is stick it in the oven. Don't have to stand there stirring the risotto for 20mins to get the liquid down.
4.5kazza47 added this comment at 03:45pm Mon 3rd August, 2009
This is a foolproof risotto recipe, if I can make it successfully, anyone can. I did use chicken stock and added mushrooms, my home grown parsley and plenty of seasoning. My whole family of grown up kids love it, not even any left overs!
3.5mimi86 added this comment at 10:29pm Thu 30th July, 2009
I changed the recipe a bit, used one cup of white wine, 4 cups stock. Also used roasted pumpkin instead of sweet potato and added capsicum. The consistency was perfect, but i thought it tasted a bit too much like vegetable stock.
3.5lisa1976 added this comment at 12:54pm Sat 27th June, 2009
The risotto was very tasty. I always manage to over cook risotto though! Hubby liked the lamb cutlets also.
5lisso added this comment at 04:37pm Mon 1st June, 2009
I roasted the sweet pototo too with nutmeg and added thinly sliced chicken breast (we weren't going to have with the chops) and a few cubes of frozen spinach. Also used 1litre stock and 250mls white wine instead of all stock. I loved the idea that I didn't have to stand at the stove stirring for 20-25mins!
5annofgreengable added this comment at 11:24am Thu 21st May, 2009
This is probably the best tasting risotto I have had (both homemade and from a restaurant). I too roasted the sweet potato first and also added about 200g thinly sliced chicken breast and a rasher of bacon. Very easy to make. Just yum.

I have cooked some oven risotto's before & this was the nicest one so far! Creamy & tasty! A great & easy meal. My family of 3 hungry boys plus hubby (aged 10-14) all enjoyed & have asked for it again!

I halved the ingredients for the risotto. It made up enough for two adult serves and two kiddy serves. Easy to make and worked out fine but a bit bland for my liking.

I only had pumpkin so I substituted this for sweet potato. We all loved it. Still meat & 3 veg but a little different meat & 3 veg. My husband who doesn't like risotto because of the consistency even enjoyed this.

The flavour was very nice, the whole family did enjoy it, I think I left the risotto in the oven too long though as it was quite gluggy rather than smooth and creamy. I prefer risotto cooked the traditional way and might try it with pumpkin next time.

This was awesome - my first ever risotto, and a fabulous result. Highly recommended.

This is such a straight forward meal to cook but it tastes amazing! I use twice the amount of sweet potato and rosemary but it works fine with the normal amounts too. Definitely a winner!!

This 1957 film takes a look at a day in the life of a grocer's shop in a small East Yorkshire town. Apart from the insight that the film provides into the activities of a grocer's before the onset of the age of the supermarket, it also features some of the household items that were common at that time: Rinse, Omo, and Fairy Snow to name but three. The shop also boasts an impressive array of Birds Eye frozen food!
Watch the film
1st June 2015 marked 80 years since the introduction of the UK's compulsory driving test. This instructional film from the 1960s will certainly raise a few eyebrows; aimed at the female learner-driver, it explains the basic workings of a car ... in a manner that can, at best, be described as thoroughly patronising!
Watch 'Drive with Clare'
Summer's finally arrived - time for a well-deserved rest at the seaside? After a dismal day of domestic disharmony, the frazzled 1950s housewife, who stars in this wonderful promo film for Wallace Arnold, certainly thought so. So, pack your cossie and sun hat (or knotted hanky) and join Joan as she heads by coach to Scarborough, with a couple of quick pitstops in York and Thornton-le-Dale en route.

Attention Leaders of Organizations! Your Culture Is Calling: Answer
Your organization, no matter its size, its product or its service, has a culture. The question is, is it the culture you want it to have? Let's get intentional about it.
I work with organizations to help them make sure that the culture they have is the culture they want. Because culture is e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g.
Your organization is a living – breathing entity and if it is going to be successful long-term, you have to intentionally direct its course and nurture its culture. I know that sounds so obvious, but it's way too easy to let the day-to-day operation of your business and the delivery of your product or service overshadow the critically important job of maintaining a healthy and widespread focus on the heart and soul of your organization – its culture.
If you have an organization that is not fun for you and your employees to get up and go to work every single day, where you see politics keeping people from showing up and doing their best work, or where there is not absolute clarity of each person's role and responsibility in the success of that organization, YOUR CULTURE is the culprit and YOU CAN CHANGE IT.
Now is the time, so let's talk about re-aligning your organization with what matters most and get everyone engaged.
The process is a deep-dive to get you reconnected with what you are building and why – and with what will and will not serve you in pursuit of what you want for your organization.
Here's a little more information I've put together for you about your culture and leadership that's important to consider. Click here.
The Organizational Coaching Packages I offer are a minimum of three months in duration and since no two organizations are the same and I don't have "package pricing" for my Organizational Coaching systems. But, I can assure you that if you want to get clear on "who you are becoming" as an organization, I will put together a package tailored to your specific needs. Contact me and we'll see if we're a good fit.
Be intentional about your organization's culture. It's the birthplace of your success. Or of your failure. Let's talk.

Why Local Sourcing Is A Winner For Food Service Companies
Date Added: Nov 2010
Format: HTML
With Small Business Saturday only a few days away, it's important to remember that business owners - not just consumers - can also support local, small businesses. One sector where supporting local businesses has tremendous financial advantages is the food service business. The $580 billion restaurant industry is realizing that sourcing ingredients locally is not just a "Feel good fad" but instead a long-term trend with inherent advantages over today's food sourcing model. For larger food service businesses, doubts about scalability have prevented working with local suppliers.

New contest: "Summer is for Lovers" by Jennifer McQuiston
With summer just around the corner in the Northern Hemisphere, I thought this was a good time to give away a signed copy of a unique historical I just read by Jennifer McQuiston: Summer is for Lovers.
Pictured: Spokesmodel T-Rex (not included in giveaway) chilling at the Brighton Pavillion (also not included) with Summer is for Lovers (included) and a romantic picnic for a lady or gentleman friend (not included).
Background image credit: Jagandrk via Wikimedia Commons.
The book (linked to McQuiston's first book, What Happens in Scotland, but I'm not sure how because I haven't read that one yet) is set in 1840s Brighton, and the heroine is a swimmer!!!! Jen did an amazing job of giving things a historical feel while still being very relatable—for example, there's one scene where the popular girl throws a party while her father's out of town, and everyone plays naughty party games, wrecks the house, and smokes up. I felt like I was reading historical Judy Blume in the best possible way! The swimming is delightful, the romance is hot, Caroline was a wonderful heroine, and I definitely cried at some of the family stuff at the end.
The back-cover copy:
His heart is unavailable. Luckily, her interest lies in the rest of him…
Though she was just a girl when they first met, Caroline Tolbertson's infatuation with David Cameron remains undimmed. Now fate has brought the handsome Scotsman back to Brighton for what promises to be an unforgettable summer. Soon, Caroline will have to choose a husband, but for now she is free to indulge her curiosity in things of a passionate nature.
That is, if David will agree to teach her.
Past mistakes have convinced David he'll make a terrible husband, though he'll gladly help the unconventional Caroline find a suitor. Unfortunately, she has something more scandalous in mind. As the contenders for her hand begin to line up, her future seems assured…provided David can do the honorable thing and let them have her.
When a spirited young woman is determined to break Society's rules, all a gentleman can do is lend a hand…or more.
The rules:
1. Comment on this post to enter.
2. The winner will be chosen at random using random.org.
3. US and Canada only.
4. Open for entries through June 15th, 2015.

New contest: Victoria Dahl's "Too Hot to Handle" and Lauren Dane's "The Best Kind of Trouble"
ETA: This contest is now closed. Ada won the books!
Hi all! This month's giveaway is a sexy feminist contemporary two-fer. I've got a signed copy of Victoria Dahl's Too Hot to Handle and a Dahl Looking for Trouble button that says "You're a nice girl who likes to have dirty sex, aren't you?", plus Lauren Dane's (unsigned) The Best Kind of Trouble.
Pictured: Spokesmodel T-Rex with prizes, ready for a Girls' Night Out in Jackson Hole. T-Rex and pink champagne not included in giveaway. ;)
Background image credit: Dhtrible via Wikimedia Commons.
Too Hot to Handle is the second book in Victoria's Jackson Hole series:
This good girl's finally going bad…
Merry Kade has always been the good girl. The best friend. The one who patiently waits for the guy to notice her. Well, no more. Merry has just scored her dream job, and it's time for her life to change. As the new curator of a museum in Wyoming, she'll supervise some—okay, a lot of—restoration work. Luckily she's found the perfect contractor for the job, and even better, he lives right next door.
Shane Harcourt can't believe that someone wants to turn a beat-up ghost town into a museum attraction. After all, the last thing he needs is the site of his dream ranch turning into a tourist trap. He'll work on the project, if only to hasten its failure…until the beautiful, quirky woman in charge starts to change his mind.
For the first time ever, Merry has a gorgeous stud hot on her heels. But can she trust this strong, silent man, even if he is a force of nature in bed? When Shane's ulterior motives come out, he'll need to prove to Merry that a love like theirs may be too hot to handle, but it's impossible to resist.
I absolutely loved Merry. She was nerdy and dorky and shy, with a sense of fun and enthusiasm and kindness and intellectual curiosity, and I wanted to be her friend. (My Goodreads review: "I laughed so hard through this whole book, and then the ending snuck up and made me cry.") Read this book!
The Best Kind of Trouble is the first book in Lauren's Hurley Boys series:
She has complete control…and he's determined to take it away
A librarian in the small town of Hood River, Natalie Clayton's world is very nearly perfect. After a turbulent childhood and her once-wild ways, life is now under control. But trouble has a way of turning up unexpectedly—especially in the tall, charismatically sexy form of Paddy Hurley…
And Paddy is the kind of trouble that Natalie has a taste for.
Even after years of the rock and roll lifestyle, Paddy never forgot the two wickedly hot weeks he once shared with Natalie. Now he wants more…even if it means tempting Natalie and her iron-grip control. But there's a fine line between well-behaved and misbehaved—and the only compromise is between the sheets!
The rules:
1. Comment on this post to enter.
2. The winner will be chosen at random using random.org.
3. US and Canada only.

New contest: "Romancing the Duke" by Tessa Dare
ETA: This contest is closed. Jen won the book.
This month I'm giving away a signed paperback of Romancing the Duke by Tessa Dare, plus swag!
If you haven't read the first book in the Castles Ever After series, what are you waiting for, seriously? I adore Izzy (who has inherited a castle unexpectedly!) and Ransom (who is NOT DEAD thank you very much, this is HIS castle and he's not leaving!). Ransom is the only person who sees Izzy as a woman, and not her famous father's wide-eyed little girl (a trope I always love). Best of all, Izzy's father wrote serial medieval stories, and there are fans and LARPers and fandom tropes, and it's awesome.
The back-cover copy:
As the daughter of a famed author, Isolde Ophelia Goodnight grew up on tales of brave knights and fair maidens. She never doubted romance would be in her future, too. The storybooks offered endless possibilities.
And as she grew older, Izzy crossed them off. One by one by one.
Ugly duckling turned swan?
Abducted by handsome highwayman?
Rescued from drudgery by charming prince?
No, no, and… Heh.
Now Izzy's given up yearning for romance. She'll settle for a roof over her head. What fairy tales are left over for an impoverished twenty-six year-old woman who's never even been kissed?
This one.
Pictured: spokesmodel T-Rex (not included) in cosplay as a Moranglian knight, with signed paperback and swag: a Say Yes to the Marquess postcard and two Romancing the Duke pinback buttons, one reading "DOUBT NOT" and one reading "Why must this be so mortifying? Oh, that's right. Because it's my life."
The rules:
1. Comment on this post to enter.
2. The winner will be chosen at random using random.org.
3. US and Canada only.
4. Open for entries through February 26th, 2015.

True Pretenses comes out in just a few weeks! To celebrate, I'm giving away 5 e-books and a lovely gift basket of items, and this time, the basket is included. Only it's not a literal basket…
Yes, the True Pretenses gift basket operates in a long con artist–fiction tradition of briefcases full of cash!
New contest: "The Suffragette Scandal" by Courtney Milan
ETA: This contest is now closed. Kelly won the book!
Do I need to remind y'all how much I love The Suffragette Scandal? Well, if I do, here is my Goodreads review in its entirety: "Probably my favorite book in the series. A con artist/forger with no self-esteem and a suffragette reporter, what is not to love? Also I cried. A lot."
The back cover copy:
An idealistic suffragette…
Miss Frederica "Free" Marshall has put her heart and soul into her newspaper, known for its outspoken support of women's rights. Naturally, her enemies are intent on destroying her business and silencing her for good. Free refuses to be at the end of her rope…but she needs more rope, and she needs it now.
…a jaded scoundrel…
Edward Clark's aristocratic family abandoned him to die in a war-torn land, so he survived the only way he could: by becoming a rogue and a first-class forger. When the same family that left him for dead vows to ruin Miss Marshall, he offers his help. So what if he has to lie to her? She's only a pawn to use in his revenge.
…and a scandal seven years in the making.
But the irrepressible Miss Marshall soon enchants Edward. By the time he realizes that his cynical heart is hers, it's too late. The only way to thwart her enemies is to reveal his scandalous past…and once the woman he loves realizes how much he's lied to her, he'll lose her forever.
I am not exaggerating. I cried A LOT. Of course, Courtney's books always make me cry—
(THE SCENE: a restaurant where I am meeting Susanna Fraser for lunch. I am weeping openly as I scroll on my phone.
SUSANNA: Are you crying?
ME: It's just allergies!
SUSANNA: So…you're allergic to Courtney Milan?
—but this one made me cry even MORE. And also laugh, and make joyous squeaking noises, and flap my hands around, and, and, and.
Not only is this a lovely signed trade paperback, but I also scored you a limited edition thimble bookmark and a Huzzah! Suffragettes! button (here pictured with spokesmodel T-Rex, click on the picture to see it larger).
I only wish I could also send you the cake pop Courtney gave me when I bought it, but alas, I ate it. I can assure you it was delicious though, and a beautiful sparkly blue, and, IIRC, red velvet on the inside.
The rules:
1. Comment on this post to enter.
2. The winner will be chosen at random using random.org.
3. US and Canada only.
4. Open for entries through December 24th.
5. I got this book signed at a conference. Courtney isn't involved in the giveaway.

New contest: "A Shocking Delight" by Jo Beverley
ETA: This contest is now closed. Virginia won the book!
When I asked what authors you'd like to see me give away signed books by, of you requested Jo Beverley. So here is a signed copy of A Shocking Delight!
The man she shouldn't want. The woman he shouldn't marry…
David Kerslake, smuggling master from The Dragon's Bride, is now Earl of Wyvern and must survive the ton as well as the Preventive Officers.
Lucy Potter, daughter of a wealthy merchant, is more interested in trade than in the men after her dowry. When forced to have a London season, she sets out to enjoy herself rather than to find a husband. But once she meets the notorious Earl of Wyvern, her resolve weakens, and when they kiss, it dissolves—even though her instincts warn he's dangerous.
Wyvern has a dark secret, which means he must win a rich bride. Lucinda Potter seems ideal. Not for her beauty and her lively charm, but because at first meeting she seems unlikely to realize the truth.
As he comes to know her, however, as they spar and kiss, he realizes she's too clever and honest by far. Marrying Lucy would mean living a lie with the woman he has come to love…
This book looks AWESOME, y'all. The rules:
1. Comment on this post to enter.
2. The winner will be chosen at random using random.org.
3. US and Canada only.
4. Open for entries through November 20th.

ETA: This contest is now closed! The winner of the basket is Susan, and the e-book winners are: Kim, Rebe, Julie N., Joye, and Katie. Congratulations!
My second book, A Lily Among Thorns, re-releases on September 2nd!
Lady Serena Ravenshaw is one of London's most prosperous women, but she's never forgotten the misery that set her on the path to success. Nor has she forgotten the drunken young gentleman who gave her the means to start her long, tortuous climb out of the gutter. When he knocks on the door of the Ravenshaw Arms to ask her help in retrieving a stolen family heirloom, she readily agrees to help, and to let him stay rent-free. After all, Serena prefers debts to fall in her favor.
Still grieving the death of his twin brother, Solomon Hathaway just wants to be left alone in his dye-making shop—until his highborn uncle sends him to the infamous Lady Serena to scour London's underworld for the missing bauble. He's shocked to discover she's the same bedraggled waif to whom he once gave his entire quarterly allowance. Yet as they delicately tread common ground, they must negotiate a treacherous world of crime, espionage and betrayal before they can learn to trust—and love—again.
You can read the first chapter here.
The book was in and out of print pretty quickly because of the Dorchester disaster, and I'm thrilled that it can be read again! To celebrate, I'm giving away 5 Lily e-books and a fantabulous gift basket (not literally. There is no actual basket)!

Contest: fourpack of signed books!
ETA: This contest is now closed. The winner was Mel K. Congratulations, Mel!
Hi everyone! Every year at RWA I buy signed books to give away. Well, RWA is next week, and somehow I've got four books left. So! This month's winner gets all four!
Assassin's Gambit by Amy Raby. I have heard really great things about this book!
Vitala Salonius, champion of the warlike game of Caturanga, is as deadly as she is beautiful. She's a trained assassin for the resistance, and her true play is for ultimate power. Using her charm and wit, she plans to seduce her way into the emperor's bed and deal him one final, fatal blow, sparking a battle of succession that could change the face of the empire.
As the ruler of a country on the brink of war and the son of a deposed emperor, Lucien must constantly be wary of an attempt on his life. But he's drawn to the stunning Caturanga player visiting the palace. Vitala may be able to distract him from his woes for a while—and fulfill other needs, as well.
Lucien's quick mind and considerable skills awaken unexpected desires in Vitala, weakening her resolve to finish her mission. An assassin cannot fall for her prey, but Vitala's gut is telling her to protect this sexy, sensitive man. Now she must decide where her heart and loyalties lie and navigate the dangerous war of politics before her gambit causes her to lose both Lucien and her heart for good.
A Night Like This by Julia Quinn. I love the Smythe-Smiths!
Anne Wynter might not be who she says she is…
But she's managing quite well as a governess to three highborn young ladies. Her job can be a challenge—in a single week she finds herself hiding in a closet full of tubas, playing an evil queen in a play that might be a tragedy (or might be a comedy—no one is sure), and tending to the wounds of the oh-so-dashing Earl of Winstead. After years of dodging unwanted advances, he's the first man who has truly tempted her, and it's getting harder and harder to remind herself that a governess has no business flirting with a nobleman.
Daniel Smythe-Smith might be in mortal danger…
But that's not going to stop the young earl from falling in love. And when he spies a mysterious woman at his family's annual musicale, he vows to pursue her, even if that means spending his days with a ten-year-old who thinks she's a unicorn. But Daniel has an enemy, one who has vowed to see him dead. And when Anne is thrown into peril, he will stop at nothing to ensure their happy ending…
The Duke's Perfect Wife by Jennifer Ashley. I haven't read this one yet, but The Madness of Lord Ian Mackenzie is on my keeper shelf.
Lady Eleanor Ramsay is the only one who knows the truth about Hart Mackenzie. Once his fiancee, she is the sole woman to whom he could ever pour out his heart.
Hart has it all—a dukedom, wealth, power, influence, whatever he desires. Every woman wants him—his seductive skills are legendary. But Hart has sacrificed much to keep his brothers safe, first from their brutal father, and then from the world. He's also suffered loss—his wife, his infant son, and the woman he loved with all his heart though he realized it too late.
Now, Eleanor has reappeared on Hart's doorstep, with scandalous nude photographs of Hart taken long ago. Intrigued by the challenge in her blue eyes—and aroused by her charming, no-nonsense determination—Hart wonders if his young love has come to ruin him…or save him.
A Woman Entangled by Cecilia Grant. It is no secret that Cecilia Grant is one of my favorite Regency authors. You can read my gushing rec of this book at my Booklikes.
Kate Westbrook has dreams far bigger than romance. Love won't get her into London's most consequential parties, nor prevent her sisters from being snubbed and looked down upon—all because their besotted father unadvisedly married an actress. But a noble husband for Kate would deliver a future most suited to the granddaughter of an earl. Armed with ingenuity, breathtaking beauty, and the help of an idle aunt with connections, Kate is poised to make her dreams come true. Unfortunately, a familiar face—albeit a maddeningly handsome one—appears bent on upsetting her scheme.
Implored by Kate's worried father to fend off the rogues eager to exploit his daughter's charms, Nick Blackshear has set aside the torch he's carried for Kate in order to do right by his friend. Anyway, she made quite clear that his feelings were not returned—though policing her won't abate Nick's desire. Reckless passion leads to love's awakening, but time is running out. Kate must see for herself that the charms of high society are nothing compared to the infinite sweet pleasures demanded by the heart.

Blood, Sweat and Fears
IFC Center
323 6th Ave. (212) 924-7771
Through Sept. 23
An activist documentary that doesn't cajole its audience with an air of presumed righteousness, "Gasland" instead takes everyone along for a cross-country voyage of discovery as filmmaker Josh Fox seeks an answer to the question: Why is the tap water so flammable? The 24-state jaunt, prompted when Mr. Fox was offered $100,000 for natural gas drilling rights to his property, explores the literally explosive issue of hydraulic fracturing – a controversial method of extracting gas that has led to widespread claims of ecological contamination. Winner of the Documentary Special Jury Prize at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival, "Gasland" argues its points with a darkly humorous touch, as when Mr. Fox decides to pause and jam on his banjo amid a depopulated drilling field, gas mask pulled snug over his face.
'Kings of Pastry'
Film Forum
209 W. Houston St., (212) 727-8110
Through Sept. 28
Life is sweet, but not always in "Kings of Pastry," in which the quest for the perfect creampuff can take on soul-crushing consequences. The new documentary from the filmmaking team of D.A. Pennebaker and Chris Hegedus ("The War Room") follows Jacquy Pfeiffer, the co-founder of Chicago's French Pastry School, on his heroic mission to win the annual Meilleurs Ouvriers de France competition. Only 16 chefs make it to the finals, and if they survive the grueling three-day bake-off they can count themselves among the best in the world. The most colorful aspect of the bout is the bijou, elegant sugar sculptures that are so fragile that the chefs live in constant fear they will collapse. And of course, they do, leading to much wailing and gnashing of teeth. Patisserie is not for the weak.
'Let the Right One In'
30 Lafayette Ave., Brooklyn
(718) 636-4100
Through Sept. 30
No fang is left behind in BAM's "Bela Lugosi's Dead, Vampires Live Forever" series, dedicated to every kind of vampire movie lurking under the full moon. This weekend offers a chance to see "Let the Right One In" (2009), the near-classic Swedish drama about a shy, bullied schoolboy and the strange, androgynous girl who lives in his apartment complex. She soon becomes his protector, in scenes that blend the awkward, bittersweet feelings of childhood and visceral shocks made more intense by the austere, minimal setting. It's probably the last time viewers will be able to consider the film's subtle approach before the Hollywood version—retitled "Let Me In"—is released, prompting inevitable comparisons and re-evaluations. For an alternate (and not at all heartwarming) European take on the genre, there's Claire Denis's "Trouble Every Day," with the appropriately feral Vincent Gallo on the trail of a virus-infected Parisian cannibal.
I-View Film Festival
Asia Society
725 Park Ave., (212) 288-6400
Saturday through Sept. 26
With 25-plus films and appearances by more than 20 filmmakers, the I-View Film Festival offers a critical mass of recent cinema from South Asia—from scrappy independent films to the unabashed musical extravagance of Bollywood. Notable directors include Vishal Bhardwaj, Rituparno Ghosh, Mehreen, Onir, Kaushik Ganguly, Sanjay Sharma and Vinay Shukla, with screenings also booked at the Tribeca Film Center and Big Cinemas. A likely highlight includes the New York premiere of "Bhutto," a documentary tracing the impact of the family that dominated Pakistani politics for two decades. Taking a satirical account of public events, Hindi director Banerjee's "Love Sex Aur Dhoka (LSD)" takes aim at cynical media exploitation against a backdrop of honor killings and government corruption.
'The Anchorage'
Anthology Film Archives
32 Second Ave. (212) 505-5181
Friday- Sept. 23
Unique and unusual, this minimalist study unfolds amid the natural beauty of an unsettled island in the Stockholm achipelago. Neither a conventional fictional narrative treatment nor quite a documentary, the collaborative effort of C.W. Winter and photographer Anders Edström takes an intimate perspective on the everyday existence of a middle-aged woman (played by Edström's mother). The pattern of this solitary life is only interrupted when the woman, Ulla, is visited by her daughter and her boyfriend. But, somehow, that is enough to shift the calm reality she has maintained, as—mysteriously—there seems to be another presence on the island: a deerhunter. It's the first film from the directors, whose deceptively static approach has much to reveal for attentive viewers.

Torche Gets Back Into Its Heavy Groove With Restarter
By Nathan Smith
Fred Frith started as guitarist in the '70s rock band Henry Cow, which melded pop, jazz, classical and poetry into a lofty, often pretentious amalgam. He then fell in with the activity surrounding NYC club the Knitting Factory, a stable of artists busy pumping life into the floundering early '80s New York experimental jazz scene. His highest-profile gig was with John Zorn's Naked City, where Frith let loose, cranked the amp and tattooed the eardrums.
Traffic Continues consists of two long works composed for Germany's 21-piece Ensemble Modern. Frith as composer has written a handful of "cells" that connect and cue fits of improvisation, and the result forms a sort of beautiful, wordless narrative. String serenades collide with silence; muted brass mumbles give way to jarring percussion interludes. On first listen, it sounds like gibberish. But each listen strips away a layer until it becomes a sort of imaginary soundtrack; in this sense it recalls the film music of both Nino Rota (whose work is much more subtle) and Alfred Hitchcock's main soundtrack composer, Bernard Herrmann.
The second work, "Traffic Continues II: Gusto (for Tom Cora)," consists of samples of the cello work of the late Cora (with whom Frith worked in the Skeleton Crew). These samples illustrate Cora's love of both subtle string rubs and screeching antagonism, and Frith, along with the Ensemble and fellow New York instrumentalists Ikuo Mori (who has been seen of late working often with Sonic Youth's Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore) and harpist Zeena Parkins, pencils circles around these samples, creating something huge out of a bunch of snippets.
The music on Traffic Continues won't leave you with even one solid melody to carry you through the day; it won't put a carefree smile on your face or drive you crazy. But after you think the thing has disappeared, it will reappear not as a concrete string of sounds but as an idea, a cloud that travels to different alleyways in your brain, covering one bit of thought and then another.

Philippines-based media and entertainment company ABS-CBN has chosen EVS technology to migrate to a tapeless production workflow in its studios and outside broadcast (OB) vans. The EVS solution was also chosen because of its interoperability with nonlinear editing (NLE) systems.
In total, ABS-CBN will install 14 XT[2] servers for media ingest as well as IPDirector in its studios for control of these servers and for logging and browsing. Media transfer to Avid ISIS for post production will use EVS' XFile as a gateway. All media will be compressed in IMX for SD and DNxHD for HD.
For studio production, three four-channel XT[2] servers controlled by IPDirector will be installed in ABS-CBN studios for ingest, content indexing, review, clipping and transfer to temporary archive or to Avid ISIS for post production. IPDirector allows users to review multiple camera angles directly, making it easy to select the best one.
Outside the studio, 10 OB boxes, each consisting of an XT[2] SpotBox and an XFile, will used in the field for multicamera capture on removable media. Six OB Boxes are SD only, while four are HD/SD switchable. Finally, one six-channel HD/SD XT[2] with LSM and XFile will installed in the OB van used for recording sports events.

... but rubbing them with cheetah blood makes them even faster.
Maybe those "harbingers of failure" are just people who are a bit more persistent in their choices and less fickle, or they are the normal ones: people who pick stuff because they like it, not because their friends do.
You're taking this WAY too personally...
The device they thought of as the "Total Immersion Video" unit was in truth a time machine.
Nostradamus' "Hister" was clearly a foretelling of Lister. It's eerie how he knew about Red Dwarf hundreds of years before television was even invented!
The problem here isn't Bob and Alice -- that part of the scenario is working fine. The problem is Bob and Carol. There's no incentive for Bob not to make false claims against Carol. That's the bit that has to be fixed.
Bob, Carol, and Alice get along much better when Ted is added to the mix.
I'm gonna pay a whole lot of attention to that, for sure.
... but the number of TV subscribers keeps going down. If they're claiming victory, I'd say it's a Phyrric one - but really, I'm not seeing it.
On the other hand, if they're doubling capacity, then you only need half the number of cycles
I'm pretty sure I saw an episode of Red Dwarf where they made a similar trade off... It ended up with Lister playing pool with planets.
Don't be like Lister.
It's good news for Google and their advertisers - fewer unwanted clicks means lower payouts.
I'm not sure whether it's anything but neutral for end users. I don't think Google's ads are the ones with the tiny little close buttons that induce false clicks - THOSE are rather irritating. But if Google really wanted to benefit end users, they'd start screening their ad content more rigorously.
It seems like we hear this every time a new version of Windows is out (or about to come out): "Yes, $PREV_VERSION had this problem, and you are ignorant and silly for running it! $CURRENT_VERSION solves all these problems!"
And I'm sure a few years, when it turns out Windows 10 has the same issues, we'll be hearing it again.
Yes, they should just accept their neighborhoods being trashed by naked, drunken idiots. Where do they think they live, some prudish town in the U.S.?
If you can't quantify something that should be readily quantifiable, then it's probably not there - no matter how much some PHB might wish it to be true.
With five people all interrupting each other and all trying to get their ideas heard, it likely means none of them are putting anything past a cursory amount of thought into the work. I can easily believe a group like this would actually be less productive than a single person coding alone.
Was THIS the way you finally managed to get off ssh1, Cisco?
I'm getting tired of not being able to read the entire heading for these stories, Slashdot. I know 8 year olds that would be better at web design than whatever "team" is handling it for you guys.
So is the average duration of a job search 35 years? 35 minutes? 35 seconds? 35 months?
No, they're having the box checked by default - you have to absolutely ask them to not shit on your floor.
And they're a lot like my dog - you might ask them not to, but they'll probably do it anyway.
Beware the new TTY code!
