We just used our Rightline Sport 3 top carrier for the first time last week. Our family went from PA to the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The bag was all we expected and more. The amount of space we were able to add to our Suburban by loading 7 peoples luggage on top was amazing! And, in our return trip yesterday, it literally rained for 6 straight hours as we got up north. We unloaded this morning...in the rain...to find all of our gear completely dry. I used ratchet straps instead!

The 3D Maxpider Foldable Roof Bag was as advertised. It was very easy to install on our Yukon XL, and kept our bags dry through a rainstorm on the way home. It appears where the zippers come together is a factor in keeping the contents dry. It's sleek design did not affect the vehicle's gas mileage.

How do you top a winter in which you've made fun of Oprah Winfrey to her face, gleefully butchered a classic Simon and Garfunkel song during a telethon and made a guest appearance on Kanye West's mega-selling CD?
If you're Chris Rock, the next stop is Broadway.
"I always look for everything," says the comedian, sitting at a table at the theater-district hangout Sardi's before rehearsals of his new gritty play by Stephen Adly Guirgis.
"You want to give your audience something funny or something good — that can be anything. It can be a play, it can be a movie," he says. "Hey, I was on Kayne's record! That's funnier than probably anything I've done in a couple of years. You know what I mean? How can I be funny this year?"
The answer now is "The Motherf----- With the Hat," a play that Rock describes as "'The Honeymooners' with drugs." It's about a man on parole and trying to live clean with his volatile girlfriend, who is far from sober. Rock, making his Broadway debut, plays the man's drug counselor.
"Honestly, it was the best thing I read all last year. It was better than every movie script, every book — it was better than everything," he says. "I read a couple of other plays and thought, 'This is easily the best one I've read.'"
Director Anna D. Shapiro, who won a Tony Award for "August: Osage County," says Rock is working hard to meld with fellow actors Bobby Cannavale, Elizabeth Rodriguez, Annabella Sciorra and Yul Vazquez.
"The day is filled with a lot of laughing and hard work and generosity, and all of that is because of who he is," she says. "He's refining a skill he already has. He understands the technical demands of that now every day better and better."
Rock, 46, is just the latest comedian to be drawn to Broadway this season, joining Robin Williams, Ben Stiller, Jim Gaffigan, Dane Cook, Colin Quinn, John Leguizamo and Kathy Griffin.
"People want to work, man," Rock says. "They don't make Sydney Pollack movies any more. They're not making 'Marathon Man' any more. So if you want to act — if you want to be in something of substance — and you're not 19, it's hard."
Rock says acting on stage isn't too far from his roots doing live stand-up or acting in films such as the recently released "Grown Ups" and "Death at a Funeral." He compares it to a gentler version of his three years aboard "Saturday Night Live."
"'Saturday Night Live' is like Olympic boxing and this is real boxing," Rock says. 'Saturday Night Live' is five minutes: You've got cue cards; you've got a helmet — kind of like Olympic boxing. This is real boxing. This is 12 rounds."
Above all, he says the story was set in present day. "I always say the worst two words a black actor can hear is 'period piece,'" he says. "Literally, as an actor, I don't really care about anything that happened before the Jackson 5."
Rock has had an interesting few months. He teamed up with Tracy Morgan to sing "Scarborough Fair" on "Night of Too Many Stars: An Overbooked Concert for Autism Education" and had a hilarious cameo on West's "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy."
He also mocked Winfrey at the 2010 Kennedy Center Honors, an annual celebration of the arts in Washington. "No one deserves this award more than Oprah Winfrey," he said from the stage, that trademark twinkle in his eyes, "but no one needs it less."
Rock knows what he's in for on Broadway, having seen such shows as "Fences," ''God of Carnage," ''Rock of Ages" and "Race." He has grown a goatee for his new part and says he likes being able to sit down and discuss the work with the playwright.
"I like this process because it values the writer. Literally, nothing's done without the writer's approval — and that's so different from the movies. In the movies, they kind of hate the writers," he says, laughing. "The writers' union needs a Rosa Parks."
Guirgis impresses him. "So few people can write and so few people can write blue collar. Nobody can do it," he says. He has another, more personal reason to like the script, too: "It's weird. When it gets good, it sounds like me."
Being on Broadway may be stepping out of his comfort zone, but Rock points to other times he has done just that, such as the TV show "Everybody Hates Chris" or his documentary "Good Hair."
"You just want to be involved with good work. It's not even about, 'Oh, look at me: I'm doing a play.' I didn't do 'Good Hair' because it was documentary. I just thought, 'I could do something good here.' Plain and simple. It's all comedy anyway.It's not all that different," he says. "It's a little more dramatic than things I've done, but it's funnier than 'New Jack City.'"
Rock says that, so far, the experience has been fun. He gets to enjoy a regular schedule after years of touring and take his kids to school in the morning, although the adult language in the play means his two girls, the oldest is 9, can't visit daddy at work.
"It's not a bad life. I got no beef. If it works out fine, I could absolutely do one of these every once in a while," Rock says. Then he notes the title of the play and adds: "If I do another one, it might be a little more family friendly."

Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.
I've seen Russ Ortiz's numbers and the drop over the last two seasons is very interesting. Actually I'm seeing it all over the majors so whatever is wrong with him must be contagious. I suspect a bad case of anabolicitis.

Diva Dog 2Read MoreAn outlandish dog outfit often includes a miniaturized sweater or a hastily attached pair of felt antlers. But at Diva Dog 2, pups can take their style statements further with swaths of bright-pink dyed hair, mohawks, or feathers. Stylists can shear and dye a pup's mane into artful and eccentric designs inspired by a favorite film, image, or sports team. Along with artful grooming services, Diva Dog 2 carries posh goods for pampering one's pup, including holistic foods, studded collars, and scented shampoos and cologne. Staff members can match canines with shiny bling or make personalized ID tags that owners may borrow before setting out on their bimonthly vision quest.5560 Hwy. 80 EPearl, MS US
Heart of Dixie Veterinary ClinicRead MoreLike a Swiss Army knife of pet care, Heart of Dixie Veterinary Clinic is many different things in one, including a vet, a kennel, and a groomer. No matter the service they choose, though, customers will always discover the same thing—the trained veterinary staff's unending love of animals. These passionate experts ensure cats and dogs stay healthy through vaccinations, dental care, x-rays, and other vet services. They also keep an eye of furry family members during day and overnight boarding visits, as well as work alongside local company Kritter Sitters to offer baths, brushes, and many other grooming options.1551 Schillinger Rd. NSemmes, AL US
Saraland Veterinary ClinicRead MoreAt Saraland Veterinary Clinic, a nimble staff attends to the health of families' furry and feathered companions. They can run lab tests such as bloodwork in-house, vaccinate pets against diseases such as rabies and cooties, or bathe and groom animals. When their owners go on vacation or have the house swept of years' worth of hidden bones, the clinic's team provides boarding for pets. They're also experienced in the care and health of small and exotic animals such as reptiles and birds.1551 Schillinger Road NorthSemmes, AL US
The Family VetRead MoreTwenty years ago, Dr. Billy Scott graduated from the Mississippi State University College of Veterinary Medicine and established his own private practice. During his time there, he became increasingly interested in veterinary dentistry, so he undertook hundreds of hours of training with board-certified practitioners. Now he operates The Family Vet, where he performs both medical and dental services for cats and dogs. In the full-service wellness center, Dr. Scott administers a range of vaccinations, tests for allergies, and maintains health with annual examinations. Outpatient surgical services begin with pre-anesthetic blood testing to ensure animals can safely accept anesthesia and generally end with absorbable sutures that, like stain-proof pants, do not require removal. Dental services include preventative cleanings and radiology as well as root canals, oral surgery, and orthodontic treatments.7048 Old Canton Rd.Ridgeland, MS US
Perfect PoochRead MoreDogs tussle over a rope during daycare at The Perfect Pooch while staff members look on, reluctant to pull them from play so they can go home. After tying a bow or bandana around each pup—a keepsake given to every visitor—they pick up the toys and ready dinner for their overnight boarders. In the pumpkin-colored salon, senior groomers with more than 15 years of experience gently stencil designs and weave feathers into coats. Although the decor is utilitarian (there's no pretense that dogs need satin to live as humans do), groomers include a free conditioning treatment with every wash.7048 Old Canton RoadRidgeland, MS US

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez said her office is mulling whether a special legislative session should be held to help the state win a Tesla Motors facility.
In a speech to an Albuquerque area commercial real estate development association on Monday, Martinez said her office is evaluating whether a special session is necessary to complete a package of economic incentives being crafted to help make New Mexico more appealing to Tesla, the Albuquerque Journal reported.
"If it's necessary, we are open to whatever we can do that would even include that sort of thing. I've had legislators say, 'If it's necessary, we'll come,'" Martinez said.
New Mexico is one of four states identified as finalists for a lithium-ion battery factory that would supply the company's Fremont, Calif., assembly plant. Others are Arizona, Nevada and Texas.
The Palo Alto, Calif.-based Tesla says it will invest $2 billion in the 10 million square foot factory, which will cost between $4 billion and $5 billion. Its partners will invest the rest.
The new factory will provide enough batteries to supply 500,000 vehicles by 2020, Tesla said. Tesla expects to produce 35,000 vehicles this year.

Apple will launch MacBooks with built-in 3G
Apple launching a MacBook with built-in mobile broadband connectivity is the "next logical step", claims an analyst.
Strategy Analytics analyst Neil Mawston says that "many operators in the US and Western Europe would jump at the chance to cross-sell a cellular MacBook to their installed base of iPhone users, in order to stimulate average revenue per user".
This follows recent rumours that Apple is planning to offer MacBooks bundled with broadband deals through O2 - the UK operator for the iPhone.
"Mobile data and Web-browsing revenues from 3.5G USB dongles are rising fast in Western Europe and North America. They are a high-growth market", Mawston told Register Hardware.
"Bigger-screen or smaller-screen laptops with integrated cellular radios are a logical next step for Apple - and others", he said. "Such form-factors are within Apple's core competence and they could be quickly developed."
Mawston said he believes this will be Apple's "next move" and predicts a possible MacWorld announcement in January.

Public Testimony Before 9/11 Panel
Published: March 23, 2004
(Page 52 of 69)
COHEN: Thank you, Congressman Roemer. You had the secretary of state here earlier, Secretary Powell. And I think he laid out some of the, quote, diplomatic initiatives that have to be undertaken. Some of it involves diplomacy. It involves the use of economic both incentives and disincentives. It involves sanctions. It involves a variety of things. But most of all, it requires engagement on the part of the United States in a very aggressive, diplomatic fashion. Sheik Salman, who is the crown prince of Bahrain -- and if any of you haven't had occasion to meet with him, I'd recommend that you talk to this young man. He's one of most progressive young leaders that I have met in, certainly my travels, but especially in the Gulf region, along with King Abdullah of Jordan.
COHEN: But Sheik Salman made an observation a few months ago which I endorse, basically pointing to the problem that the United States has in dealing with this issue, that much of the Arab world looks through two lenses: one lens focused on how we conduct ourselves in Iraq, now that we're there, how we successfully resolve or achieve success in Iraq and treat the Iraqi people in that process; and the other happens to do with the Middle East conflict, that many Muslims throughout the world also look through the lens of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. And so I think we have to become much more engaged there as well, and that's why I mentioned that I don't think it should wait until November elections are over. I think that we have to energize that process now. I have my own thoughts about what needs to be done and have written about that. In addition to that, we'd have to engage Indonesia diplomatically; military, the IMET program is one of the most important programs that we have, the sharing of educational materials, exercises, planning with other militaries. Because of the superiority I believe of the men and women who serve us, because of their excellence in education, discipline, leadership, follow-ship, all the things that make us the greatest force, military force, on the face of the earth, we should be trying to share that talent, technology, techniques with other countries. And, yes, they may be accused of not living up to our standards of human rights. All the more reason why we should engage them, all the more reason why we have to persuade them that this is the way a military has to operate, not with clubs and batons, not with the law of rule, but the rule of law. That also has to take place. So IMET's important. I think we also have to go to other countries who support the madrassas and say that you are feeding the flames of future destruction here. That requires education, it requires giving countries also a hope. I'll come back to the Palestinians for a moment. Unless you see people who have an opportunity for either sovereignty, dignity and opportunity, you are likely to see continued festering of violence in the region. So you have to give people a sense of hope: economic hope, individual liberty in terms of their opportunities -- all of that is involved. So that requires us to be engaged in a very aggressive way diplomatically. The military, by the way, plays a role, a great role, in diplomacy. We have our State Department, and they do an outstanding job with very limited resources. But the military also plays a very big role.
COHEN: When our men and women in uniform go to a country and the people are able to judge them and see how good they are, how disciplined, how well-led, how technically capable, et cetera, how good they are as human beings, they make a judgment about us. And they say: We want to be like you. We want to have the same kind of capability. We want to develop a relationship with you. We need to do more of that. And so every time there's an issue that comes up on the Hill, they say, well, Abusive human rights; cut off IMET, we should be holding on to IMET. I could be carry on at length about this particular requirement, and I know that there are people on the Hill who would object to that. But I think we have a better chance of influencing people in their judgments about us and helping to persuade them that the way of the future is to have a military like that of the United States and our allies to subordinate that military to civilian rule, to educate the military, to help persuade them that they are in this war against terror with us -- all of that comes about with diplomacy and a very strong military capability and diplomatic effort.
LEHMAN: Thank you very much. I hope this commission will take into consideration those very provocative and thoughtful recommendations into our recommendations at the end of the day.
COHEN: Thank you.
KEAN: Secretary Cohen, thank you very, very much not only for your testimony today, but I know you've given very generously of your time to this commission in private sessions and with the staff. And for that, I thank you very much. I hope if we have additional questions -- and I know we're going to want to talk to you a bit more as we get into our recommendations -- that you will help us there also.
COHEN: OK. Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
KEAN: Thank you very much.

Celebrity life can take toll on mental, physical health
Dr. Moshe Lewis | August 20, 2014 | Updated: August 20, 2014 1:04pm
Photo By James Nielsen/StaffJohnny Manziel, the Texas A&M-turned-Cleveland Browns football player, announced he's entering rehab "to improve himself."
Manziel isn't alone, though. There are plenty of stars who took a pause for the cause in order to get their life back on track. Take a look at other celebrities who went to rehab for a variety of reasons.
Photo By Henry S. Dziekan III/SiteIn 2006, actor and comedian Robin Williams publicly admitted his battle with alcoholism and checked himself into rehab. Several years later, Williams' representative said the actor returned to rehab to "fine-tune and focus on his continued commitment" to staying sober. He died a little more than a month later.

Photo By Matthew Eisman/WireImageActor Shia LaBeouf's recent erratic behavior finally led to him being thrown out of a stage show in New York City. Soon after, the "Transformers" star's rep said LaBeouf was starting a self-help program for undisclosed treatment.

Photo By Michael Buckner/Getty Images for Entertainment Industry FoundationA representative for the pop star stays Selena Gomez checked herself into rehab in 2014. Though we're not exactly sure what for, her rep says it's "not for substance abuse."
Photo By JOHN SHEARER/GETTY IMAGESSelena Gomez first made a name for herself on the Disney Channel's "Wizards of Waverly Place" in 2006.
Actor Philip Seymour Hoffman was found dead at the age of 46 on Feb. 1, 2014 in his New York home. Though the official cause of death has yet to be determined, law enforcement says it looks like a drug overdose. CNN reports that authorities say the needle was still sticking out of Hoffman's left arm when he was found on his bathroom floor.
All this after the New York Daily News reported that Hoffman checked into a 10-day stint in rehab back in May, following 23 years of sobriety. Hoffman told TMZ in May that he fell off the wagon a year prior, starting off with prescription pills. It started off with pills, and sadly ended on his bathroom floor.

Photo By Dima Gavrysh/APActor Heath Ledger died in 2008 at the age of 28 after an accidental overdose of several different prescription drugs.
"American Idol," "Dancing With the Stars" and their many brethren and spin-offs have young people dreaming of becoming celebrities. In reality, the life of the typical reality TV star isn't as glamorous as it appears.
In fact, the pressures of celebrity life can be enormous.
Many celebrity performers are on tour for months at a time. Movie shoots, promotional events and parties last into the wee hours. These commitments can take a toll on the physical and mental health of the unprepared.
Money often also creates problems it cannot solve. Street drugs like cocaine, prescription drugs like Oxycodone, and other substances attractive to addictive personalities are easily available for people with deep pockets and fame.
While many celebrity drug deaths have been caused by suicide or illegal drug use, a surprising number result by accident from medications available at the corner pharmacy. It turns out that people mistakenly perceive drugs prescribed by a doctor as safer than street drugs.
Even low doses of seemingly harmless drugs can kill, as pointed out at the funeral of Heath Ledger by his father, Kim.
The life and death of Robin Williams illustrate many of these points. As far back as 1988, Williams told People magazine that "Cocaine for me was a place to hide" - a way to deal with the stresses of life.
Drug abuse among the stars is thus both predictable and gravely concerning because it makes a bold statement about our pursuit of the so-called good life. No matter how high the stakes, to some it's still worth it. We live in a have-it-your-way society. Many people figure that if one hit or drink or pill isn't doing the trick, two might.
Combining prescription and illicit drugs increases the risk even more.
When the show or tour must go on, celebrities who are feeling ill can find it tempting to reach into their medicine collection and take what is there.
Depression and anxiety - yes, celebrities get the jitters, too - are common reasons doctors prescribe antidepressants and benzodiazepines. Often, these two classes of drugs show up in the coroner's report. The death is usually labeled "accidental" when the celebrity did not appear to take a large dose.
Frequently, however, medication has built up in the system and an underlying health condition has made it more toxic than usual.
Prescription drugs are sneakier than street drugs; they deceive the user by working slowly over time, often resulting in a deadly high or a fatal crash.
In young people, the body develops a tolerance to opiates in just a short period and needs ever more to feel the same effect. The result being that the user mistakenly escalates the doses to dangerous levels.
Illicit drugs, opiates, benzodiazepines, anxiolytics, muscle relaxers and antidepressants are extremely difficult to stop taking once the body becomes used to them. And if the person does manage to stop, the result can be oversensitivity to pain, extreme loss of motivation, and severe depression.
While many celebrities have admitted - as Williams did - to struggles with drugs, others refuse to admit, even to themselves, how dependent they are on them. Given the risky business of abusing drugs and being overworked, we are likely to witness the loss of other beloved stars who may not find that rehab completely eliminates their cravings or their pain.

I have an external program Otter that gets as parameter some filename and creates an output file, also specified as parameter. So for example if my input is "proof.in" and I want my output to be placed in the "proof.out" file, I run the following command in the terminal:
otter <proof.in >proof.out
The "proof.in" file must be in the same file as the otter executable.
The problem is that I need this functionality from Java so in my Java code I do the following:
java.lang.Runtime.getRuntime().exec("otter <proof.in >proof.out")
but after this line the whole UI is frozen and nothing happens and no output file is generated.
Could anyone show me where I got it wrong??
Thanks in advance, Tamash

He may be known for the virgule, but the feeling of his new exhibition more closely resembles an exclamation mark.
thin sloping line, used as a comma in medieval MSS, 1837, from French virgule, from Latin virgula "punctuation mark," literally "little twig," diminutive of virga "shoot, rod, stick." The word had been borrowed in its Latin form in 1728.
Rare, and ambiguous: slash or comma.
"Virgule" (or rather, Latin "virgula", meaning "little rod" or, vividly enough, "little penis") was the name of a punctuation character shaped like a small slash and used in the Latin writing system much like a modern comma -- hence the ambiguity of this term in modern English.
Compare French "virgule" and Italian "virgola", meaning "comma" (not "slash"); Italian "doppia virgola" and "virgoletta", both meaning "double quote".

LENEXA, Kan. (AP) _ A northeast Kansas teenager who braved this week's winter storm to pull dozens of cars out of the snow has been recognized for his good deeds.
KSHB-TV reports 19-year-old Andrew Flood headed out from his Lenexa home in a pickup truck Tuesday night amid snow blanketing the Kansas City metro region. One by one, he hooked up his truck to stranded cars and pulled them free _ for free.
By sunrise Wednesday, Flood had towed 53 cars.
Flood didn't ask for money, but an executive of LongHorn Steakhouse heard about his work and gave him a $200 gift card Thursday.
Flood, who's training to be a paramedic, said he likes to help people and knows that not all drivers have money for a tow.

With temperatures in the 80's and 90's this event enjoyed some of the nicest weather the Pacific Northwest has to offer. The event saw a packed front flight line with 80+ registered pilots and countless visitors and spectators. To make the fun fly even more special, like the years before, it was preceded by two days of the Freestyle 3D school hosted by Todd Bennett and Matt Botos. Todd and Matt both stayed around for the 3 days of the Fun Fly. Matt Botos left the crowd speechless with his big air, high speed, on the deck flights with his Synergy N9.
We had the very special treat of a full size MD 500E making a surprise landing late on Sunday at the field. The owner was very nice and gave us a guided tour of the helicopter.
I have several videos from the event to follow, look for them real soon here on RC Heli Resource.

Their pizza is great, a little bit expensive, but, it is worth it! You would definetely want to bring the family to eat here! Also, the playground is right there so you can watch kids while you eat!!!
We recently had our office party at the Zone Family fun center and we ordered 30 pizzas or so. They were able to accommodate everyone in the group with all the different choices. The pizza crust was tasty and the toppings (especially the veggies were very fresh and not overcooked). We all had a great time!
We had their pizza for our company party and it was really tasty. We will be doing this again, great for kids parties and for company events also when you can go after hours and have the whole place to yourself. Love it here! The staff is incredible and the place is clean and fun.
The zone is great they offer a reasonably priced package for a family we had a blast w a 15 y o and 6 y o everyone agreed the laser tag was a highlight! We had low expectations for the pizza but it was good! Nice garlic butter crust ! The staff really sells the place they were all really...
Pizza was good and the entertainment was better. Friendly staff

Economic development programs and parks and public improvement projects in Syracuse have taken a hit because the federal government is providing the city with fewer funds for local programs.
"We have steadily been receiving less funding from the federal government each year, so we have had to make cuts in the funding we provide to various community programs," said Patrick Stanczyk, spokesperson for the city department that distributes the federal funds to local programs.
Because housing is the main focus of these federal grants, the Syracuse Department of Community Development (SDCD) has tried to maintain a high level of funding for housing programs, but some of the other program areas have had significant cut-backs as a result, according to Stanczyk, a program analyst for the SDCD.
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has about $3.8 billion each year to distribute in the form of Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) to cities with populations of at least 50,000 to provide support for city and non-profit programs addressing housing, economic and service needs of low and moderate-income residents and neighborhoods, according to Adam Glantz, spokesperson for HUD.
The community development department in each city is responsible for distributing these federal funds to local non-profit organizations and city government programs that work toward the goals of this HUD grant and the priorities outlined by the particular city.
A ten year decline
Syracuse has been receiving less funding from the community development grant each year for the past 10 years or more, according to Stanczyk.
"I do not know all of the factors that go into determining the size of the grant, but the decreased funding might be a result of the overall population decline in Syracuse," Stanczyk said.
Syracuse received $6,079,707 from the CDBG this year, a 3.8 percent decrease from last year's grant funds.

I'm sorry if someone has already asked a similar question but I am needing help from parents that live in Missouri. We have 2 toddlers with Autism. (ages 2 and 3). My husbands work insurance is NOT an option for coverage because they are "Self Funded" I already called and they said No.
Currently we live in Utah <---worst state for children with autism. We have narrowed it down MO and NY and are trying to decide which to move to.
We have been told good things about Missouri and their Autism resources particularly in Lee's Summit School District and in Boone County. I was told that in MO Medicaid does NOT cover ABA thereapy BUT that there is a Medicaid Waiver we can apply for and that this WOULD cover the therapy.Ā I am needing to know IS THERE A WAITING LIST FOR THE WAIVER? We were also told that the EI schools incorporate it into their curriculum. Any insight on this?
We will be moving in March and originally we were looking at 5 States and we have narrowed it down by doing TONS and TONS of research about Missouri and New York. I am really needing to hear from other parents in Missouri =) Thank you so much for you help =)

YIELD: Makes 4 to 6 servings
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a mortar, crush together the leaves from one rosemary sprig, a scant teaspoon salt, a little pepper, and about 1/3 cup of the olive oil. Rub this mixture all over the lamb, then season generously with additional salt and pepper.
2. Place the lamb on a rack in a large roasting pan. Place the potatoes in the pan, toss with the remaining olive oil, add a cup of water, and season generously with salt and pepper. Add the remaining rosemary sprigs and half the lemon juice and mix in. Roast for about 30 minutes, tossing the potatoes occasionally and basting the lamb with the pan juices. Add the cleaned artichokes and a little more of the lemon juice and toss with the potatoes in the pan. Continue roasting, basting every 10 to 15 minutes, until the lamb is cooked to the desired doneness, 30 to 40 minutes. Greeks like their lamb medium-well, which will take about 1 hour and 10 minutes from start to finish. Season with additional salt, pepper, or lemon juice. Remove from the oven, let the meat stand for 20 minutes to settle the juices, then carve.

This is the story of a 13 year old boy and how he deals with his mother's rape and assault. I liked this book, the voice of the boy was so genuine and intelligent you could not help but sympathize and secretly hope he sets out to accomplish his plan to help his mother. Recommended.
Kindred's Reading Challenge: #8 A National Book Award Winner
On an otherwise quiet everyday morning, Geraldine Coutts is viciously attacked, raped, and almost murdered. The Round House explores the aftermath of this event, all as seen through the eyes of her 13-year-old son Joe.
The Round House is a powerful book that deals with sexual assault, racism, injustice, PTSD, violence, and retribution. But it's also a book about a teenager finding his first job, having an unrequited and hopeless crush, hanging out with his friends, getting into petty trouble, and generally discovering who he is. Erdrich seamlessly juxtaposes these two stories, so that we can see Joe struggling with his mother's sudden depression after the trauma and then heading out to bike around town aimlessly with his closest friends within a split second.
Erdrich also interweaves in traditional stories and discussions of the struggles of Native Americans within the legal system. While the latter could be a teeniest bit didactic at times, it was an important framework to keep in mind with the story being told.
The characters in the book are interesting and well-rounded. Most everyone is complicated, often with conflicting feelings guiding them. For the most part, the characters are likable, but they still do things that are questionable or heartbreaking. In other words, they are like real-life people, who are rarely all good or all bad.
Erdrich throws in a few Easter eggs referencing characters in her earlier books, but this book stands alone quite well and you don't need to be a huge Erdrich fan to get into it. You do need to be someone who doesn't mind reading about some heavy topics and doesn't need a loose ends tied up, Hollywood happy ending closing out the book. If you want something that provides well-rounded, interesting characters and lots of food for thought (with a few dashes of humor here and there), then this is a good book for you.
The only real downside of this book for me was that the audio reader wasn't the greatest. His inflection bordered on monotone, and he didn't give the characters different voices. It gave an otherwise very gripping book a bit of a dull edge.
A great coming-of-age novel. Poignant, wise, and some genuinely funny moments.
With "The Round House," her 14th novel, Louise Erdrich takes us back to the North Dakota Ojibwe reservation that she has conjured and mapped in so many earlier books, and made as indelibly real as Faulkner's Yoknapatawpha County or Joyce's Dublin. This time she focuses on one nuclear family — the 13-year-old Joe Coutts; his mother, Geraldine; and his father, Judge Antone Coutts — that is shattered and remade after a terrible event.
Although its plot suffers from a schematic quality that inhibits Ms. Erdrich's talent for elliptical storytelling, the novel showcases her extraordinary ability to delineate the ties of love, resentment, need, duty and sympathy that bind families together. "The Round House" — a National Book Award finalist in the fiction category — opens out to become a detective story and a coming-of-age story, a story about how Joe is initiated into the sadnesses and disillusionments of grown-up life and the somber realities of his people's history.
"The Round House" represents something of a departure for Erdrich, whose past novels of Indian life have usually relied on a rotating cast of narrators, a kind of storytelling chorus. Here, though, Joe is the only narrator, and the urgency of his account gives the action the momentum and tight focus of a crime novel, which, in a sense, it is. But for Erdrich, "The Round House" is also a return to form.
Each new Erdrich novel adds new layers of pathos and comedy, earthiness and spiritual questing, to her priceless multigenerational drama. "The Round House'' is one of her best — concentrated, suspenseful, and morally profound.
Our reviewer, Alan Cheuse, is always in pursuit of great new books. And today, Louise Erdrich's latest "The Round House." I interviewed her earlier this week about the novel. Now, here's Alan's take and he says it's her best yet.

Originally written on Inside the Bills | Last updated 10/11/11
The Bills did not make a move with respect to their 53-man roster Tuesday, but they did make an addition to their practice squad. Buffalo signed free agent WR Tim Toone to their practice squad. The 5'10″ 185-pound wideout was most recently with the Detroit Lions where he served the past two seasons on the club's practice squad. A former 7th-round pick of the Lions (2010) Toone caught 167 passes over the last two seasons of his college career at Weber State, and finished his career with 29 TD receptions. In 2009, Toone caught 83 passes for 1,104 yards and 10 touchdowns. He averaged 19.9 yards on punt returns including two touchdowns. To make room on the practice squad for Toone, the Bills released DB Brandon Bing. With respect to the 53-man roster I wouldn't anticipate a move this week. I think the Bills are going to assess their options and how well they fare offensively against the Giants and then go into the bye week and re-assess everything.
