Product description
When Alice finds herself in the rapidly downward spiral of Alzheimer's Disease she is just fifty years old. A university professor, wife, and mother of three, she still has so much more to do - books to write, places to see, grandchildren to meet. But when she can't remember how to make her famous Christmas pudding, when she gets lost in her own back yard, when she fails to recognise her actress daughter after a superb performance, she comes up with a desperate plan. But can she see it through? Should she see it through? Losing her yesterdays, living for each day, her short-term memory is hanging on by a couple of frayed threads. But she is still Alice.

By Pragya 16 May 2012
I just finished reading this book and I'm writing with a heavy heart. I cried a couple of times and no, it wasn't due to a frustrating plot or bad writing.
This is a book about a mental disorder, about Dementia. It is written from the perspective of the sufferer, the one who suffers from this ugly disease. And that is why it hits hard. Every single sentence, every word is powerful. It makes you think, cry and feel frustrated.
Now why would you want to read a book that makes you cry and feel frustrated? Because it's reality to so many people out there, it's the life they live every single day.
Yes but why should I care? Because this disease is so prevalent, you never know when 'they' becomes 'us'. I pray that never happens but who can be sure about what life throws at you?
You should read this book if-
1. You want to understand Dementia not from a medical angle but a personal angle, to hear it from the one who has it.
2. To know what Dementia is, what it does.
3. To be aware of the symptoms of Dementia in order to be able to take care of someone suffering from this disease. No this is not a book training you on support but it will help sensitize you towards their needs and feelings.
4. If you are a mental health worker, this is a MUST for you. Why me? I know everything there is to know about the disease. I have read numerous books, articles and attended conferences about it. What new can this book tell me? This book will help you to let go of everything that you learnt from books etc. And that, believe me, is a good thing.
Being a Clinical Psychologist myself, I love to read books like this. Yes, I study my texts and no, I don't read books like this to help me learn my text, though it is an added advantage. But the real reason why I read and appreciate these books is that something you do day in and day out makes you mechanical to the use of it, like driving a car. You don't have to remember and revise each step before you shift gear. And that is precisely what happens (in differing degrees with different people) when you are a mental health worker and see people afflicted with a disease every single day. You know how to diagnose and provide intervention for each disease. But in order not to forget how it feels to the person across the table and to refresh out sensitivity to them, these books come in handy. It sure did with me.
Last words: Read it.
By Maggie Swithenbank 02 Nov 2011
So glad I read this book! Many of us think we have Alzheimers Disease when we're forgetful...but there's nothing like reading about it from the patient's perspective, especially when the 'patient' is a lively, energetic mother who is not 'old'...This is a heartwarming, inspiring and terrifying book about what it's like to lose your mind...Highly recommended for Book Clubs!
By barbara prendota 26 Aug 2011
this is such a good read! i loved it from the very first page
definitely recommendable to anyone- man or a woman
By Adele Ward 29 Dec 2010
Pageturner, alzheimers and novel aren?t three words you'd normally expect to see in the same sentence, and yet they go together to describe Still Alice, the debut from Simon & Schuster by Lisa Genova. When I saw the blurb I was a bit reluctant to start reading, thinking the subject would be depressing and stressful. How wrong I was.
Still Alice is a remarkable novel that will change the way you view alzheimers and the way you respond to people with this condition. It will change the way you think about alzheimers if you are ever diagnosed with it, and will certainly influence the way you relate to people close to you if they become affected. If you are already living with alzheimers, as a patient or as a friend, relative or professional, Still Alice is a novel you should take a look at.
Genova puts us right inside the experience of alzheimers by telling this story through the first person narrative of Alice, a university professor who is just 50 when she gets her diagnosis. She knows exactly what this will mean because, like Genova, she is a neuroscience specialist. The novel opens with Alice at her most capable intellectually known in academic circles for her amazing ability to remember the detailed facts of her subject, including where precisely to find the quotes to reference research papers.
Alice relaxes by jogging round her town, knowing the map of the area and loving her independence. Admired by her colleagues and loved by her husband and daughters, she's the type of career woman and successful family organiser many would aspire to emulate. Like us, she puts the first signs of memory loss down to trying to do too many things at once, but the diagnosis comes quite early in the novel. After that, due to her professional expertise, she knows how to recognise and chart her own progress into alzheimers and how she feels she should prepare for what is to come.
This knowledge also lets her find strategies to cope with each stage and to plan for what she wants to do when it goes too far. She knows she won't be able to remember how or why she will want to end it all at a certain stage, so she leaves instructions for herself that she hopes she will follow regardless. Her Blackberry soon becomes her way of giving herself a To Do list to follow, as memory fails, and it has one important instruction of how to find the means of suicide on the day she can't remember the answer to a few simple questions.
Once she no longer remembers simple information about her family she feels it will be time to use some items she has prepared to kill herself. Many of us would feel we would want to do the same. But as the story progresses, as we really feel what it is like to be Alice, will we still want her to commit suicide at that key moment or will we see alzheimers in a different way? Will Alice manage to go through with her initial plan right to the end?
I won't spoil Still Alice by giving you the answers to this. All I can say is that suicide won't be a plan I'll be making if I ever get this diagnosis, and I'll remember Alice if ever those close to me are affected by alzheimers. I will never see this condition in the same way again, and that?s a remarkable achievement by a novelist writing about such an important subject. On a purely stylistic level, Genova never swerves from her course of only seeing this through Alice's eyes, and once we start this experience with her we can't stop reading until we see it through.
Editorial reviews
First novel efficiently showcases the experience of developing early-onset Alzheimer's.In 24 months, 49-year-old Harvard psychology professor Alice Howland exchanges the role of high-achieving teacher, wife and mother of three for that of a disoriented, inarticulate, forgetful shell of her former self. Stricken much earlier than most by this progressive, degenerative disease for which there is no cure, Alice loses her profession, independence, clarity and contact with the world with shocking rapidity in a narrative that sometimes reads more like a dramatized documentary than three-dimensional fiction. Genova, an online columnist for the National Alzheimer's Association, has a brisk style and lays out the facts of the disease - statistics, tests, drugs, clinical trials - plainly, often rather technically. The responses to Alice of her three grown-up children, who are also at risk of the disease; the struggles of her equally high-flying husband, a Harvard biologist; and Alice's own emotional responses, including fear, suicidal thoughts, shame and panic, are offered in semi-educational fashion, sometimes movingly, sometimes mechanically. Alice's address to the Alzheimer's Association Annual Dementia Care Conference is an affecting final public statement before her descent into fog and the loving support of her children.Worthy, benign and readable, but not always lifelike. (Kirkus Reviews)

Nestled away in a small side street off Milan's famous Corso Buenos Aires lies the quaint little Pizzeria Ristaorante, Sabatini. Blink and you'd miss it, this hidden gem is definitely worth scoping out as it offers delicious homemade food, an athentically Italian setting and a very competitive price list.
A family-run restaurant, Sabatini was established in 1946 and over the years it has seen three generations of the Abbate family work at this popular eaterie. The decor is simple, with bottles of wine lining the walls, small tables covered in dusty pink table cloths, wooden seating and a vintage motor bike proudly displayed at the entry. The kitchen is alive and is positioned in the centre of the restaurant with big glass window so that you can watch the chefs at work and marvel at just how amazing your meal looks. A large wood-fire pizza oven sits to the right of the kitchen, with, let's call him Luigi, furiously spinning out pizza's like nobody's business. The waiters are all dressed in black trousers, white shirts and black waistcoats and most of them speak very little English, so you know you're getting the real deal here.
Sabatini's menu is classically Italian and includes a large selection of pizza, pasta, meats, seafood and salad. For starters you can enjoy freshly baked bruschetta, mozzarella wrapped in proscuitto or the antipasto buffet, which is a feast of meats, cheeses, olives and fish. The mains are what you would expect of an Italian restaurant and include huge pizza's topped with cheeses, vegetables, meats and seafood, homemade pasta's, bowels of mussels and scampi, veal parmigiana, tuna salad and Sabatini's specialty - seafood spaghetti baked under a pizza crust! Finish off your meal with a delicious Italian coffee and take a peak at the old-fashiond dessert trolley packed with creme caramel, tirimisu, lemon cake, apple pie and panna cotta, delish!
Sabatini is open 7 days a week and no matter what the day, continues to attract crowds of both locals and tourists so is always buzzing! Portions are big, prices ar reasonable (with mains starting at €8.00) and the restaurant is located in the heart of the shopping district so it's very easy to get to but often hard to leave. You will find a full break down of menu's, contact details and raving restaurant reviews at www.ristorantesabatini.com/
The proof is in the the pudding, or in this case pizza, so get yourself over there!

The dog that had presumably been left for dead in a trash bin is being inundated with adoption offers.
The dog, named Patrick for his reddish fur and because he was found the day before St. Patrick's Day, has received hundreds of e-mails, donations, gifts, and letters from those inspired by his tale of survival.
Philly.com reports when Patrick was brought to Garden State Veterinary Specialists after being rescued by officials at the Associated Humane Societies, he was so starved that he was curled into a ball, unable to walk or stand. His ribcage protruded, he weighed about 20 pounds - and was covered in sores with parts of skin hanging off him, according to Patricia Smillie-Scavelli, the administrator of the hospital.
"Everyone thought that, you bring in an animal like that, that looks like it's really just a corpse, you put it to sleep," Smillie-Scavelli said. "But of course, he looked up at you with those eyes, and you say: How can you give up on this dog? We gave him that second chance, and he has just run with it, and thrived."
Care2.com reports charges against the dog's owner Kisha Curtis were upgraded to include "torture and torment of a living creature" which carries a sentence of 18 months in jail and/or a $3,000 fine if she is convicted.
Curtis has since been released on bail.

Today, after weeks of treatment including a transfusion of three pints of blood, a special diet, medicine, and physical therapy, Patrick is gaining weight - currently he weighs just over 29 pounds - is finally eating solid food, and enjoys taking walks in the sun and playing with the many toys that well-wishers have sent him.
The hospital ordered 500 thank-you cards with Patrick's picture to mail to those who sent collars, dog shirts, toys, scrapbook pages, or dog blankets embroidered with Patrick's name, and the supply is fast running out.
And last week, ahscares.org reported that Patrick visited the News 12 New Jersey offices where he made an appearance on "The Pet Stop."
According to the hospital's website, they have discontinued accepting donations directly to the hospital for Patrick. Patrick's plight reminds us that there are many animals that suffer terrible abuse and are being rescued every day. Those wishing to honor Patrick are encouraged to donate to your local organization in his name.

We spend a lot of time searching for the smallest waters, hoping for the one or two moments a day with good trout. Some days we walk many kilometers and the scenery is our reward. Most of the time we are rewarded, stumbling onto several good trout in what should be the most impossible locations. In this short, ankle deep water awaits.

VIDEO: Black Panther Agitation Erupts at Houston Polling Places
**NOTE** The video below is of eyewitness accounts. There is no video of the incidents inside the polling places because it is illegal to record either sound or video inside a voting place in Texas. If the poll watchers had video tapped these incidents they would have been arrested. In fact, the Texas Sec. of State and Harris County Attorney specifically instructed poll watchers to leave cell phones turned off in the polling place.
Here in Houston, Texas, the Democrats and the extremists that support them were desperate to make the King Street Patriots their boogieman. They desperately wanted these fine patriotic, all-volunteer, grassrooters to be seen as wild-eyed racists that had as their sole purpose the disenfranchisement of the entirety of Houston's minority community. For the most part the left's goal evaded them, however.
For the whole of the two weeks of early voting, the Old Media and the Democrats attempted to stir hatred for the King Streeters, but ultimately all the left's sound and fury amounted to no benefit for their illicit cause.
The KSP reported over a hundred incidents of elections laws being ignored, bent, and broken during the early voting phase of the election. For two solid weeks the Old Media in and around Houston were abuzz with the Streeter's efforts.
In the early hours of voting on election day, things went smoothly and generally without incident. But all was not entirely quiet for the whole day. The most egregious incidents were perpetrated by Quanell X (formerly Ralph Evans) local leader of the race-based, militant New Black Panther Party.
Quanell X was witnessed illegally entering polling places with a New Black Panther entourage of at least 5 other New Black Panthers. Some were in uniform.
Certainly the New Black Panthers are not allowed to enter polling places without poll watcher credentials. They are absolutely not allowed to issue instructions to election officials which they were witnessed doing. In some instances, white poll watchers and white election officials were rejected from the polling places after these intruders had words with polling judges.
At district 202, for instance, a KSP poll watcher observed as ten members of the Black Panthers entered the polling place in order to confront poll watchers.
One KSP poll watcher was threatened forcing him to leave the polling place in fear of his personal safety. In a threatening manner the Black Panthers blocked the path of the two KSP poll watchers as they tried to leave. One of the poll watchers felt that they Panthers intended to physically attack them as soon as they left the polling place.
Interestingly, Houston Housing Authority police showed up at the same time the Panthers did at district 202. It is obvious that the Panthers tried to coordinate their activities in order to get maximum exposure for their actions.
The law states that it is illegal for such an organized group to invade a polling place like that and the sole purpose for this action was obviously to create a race-based incident between the poll watcher and the Black Panthers. It was little else but an attempt to manufacture a crisis.
District 202 wasn't the only place the attackers appeared in the last hours that the polls were open. Several KSP poll watchers reported that the Black Panthers had organized a large force that spilt up to appear at several inner city polls at once in order to perpetrate their intimidation tactics against KSP poll watchers in an attempt to drive out the white people that were quietly at work observing the voting process.
In another incident in District 210 an alternate judge who lives in that district was chased out of the polling place due to the threatening demeanor of Quanell X and his gang of followers. The alternate judge left the polling place in the late afternoon in fear of her safety. This woman contacted the Harris GOP and was assured that she had every right to be in the polling place. Upon her return the Black Panthers continued their harassment until ultimately police threatened to arrest the alternate judge and bodily remove her from the premises. During none of this did the judge ever utter to her harassers more than the words "are you guys ready to vote today?"
But even with these attempts to manufacture a crisis, the efforts of the King Street Patriots were generally fruitful. While severe violations of the sanctity of the polling place was encountered the King Streeters seem to have been successful in serving notice to those who have for decades played havoc with the law and had their way at the polls. These people were put on notice that their general illicit behavior was going to be closely watched and duly reported.
Because of the bright light that the King Street Patriots shed on these polling places, the law breakers did not wreck as much damage as they might on the integrity of the vote here in Houston.
The efforts of the King Street Patriots will serve to help rid Houston of these sort of illegal activities into the future and their organization is an ideal model for others to emulate.

THE RIDE: No structure? Here's what to do
Entrepreneurs, seasoned or not, often launch a business venture with no structure. Is diving in their only option?
An entrepreneur used that approach in 2010 a day after she'd abandoned her business, shipwrecked by her dishonest partner. Jen Sterling, president of Red Thinking LLC in South Riding, Va., opened the brand strategy and design business with three print and web designers from the previous business (www.redthinkingllc.com). "We wanted to make sure client projects remained on schedule," she says. "When you don't know how to do something and need to get it done yesterday, you push forward blindly and hope your gut gets you there – scary."
Moiz Mohammed launched BiznusSoft Inc. in Hoffman Estates, Ill., two years later and completely solo (www.biznussoft.com). Undaunted, the CEO and founder had a vision of developing consulting and SaaS for HR management, field service operations and quote-to-cash. He needed to form and build a team, find strategic partners, develop product and sales strategies, and manage. "I took things one at time," he remarks.
Sterling started with $614 in personal savings, compared with Mohammed's $350,000 and a $150,000 family trust, left untouched. When a client lost two web staff, Sterling spotted opportunity. She approached the lead partner as a peer and said, "We're standing by to support however you need us to do that." Now she handles the entire account, including email and signage, and attributes her success to dropping the vendor mantle.
A sales lead at a utility brought opportunity and sharpened marketing for Mohammed. He conducted more research in that industry, saw its potential for his SaaS, then developed "a proof-of-concept to show how our (prospect's) business process would fit into our product lines, lead to significant ROI and reduce costs," he explains. He'd found a vertical niche to mine.
Red Thinking's opening, which should have been a happy time, was marred by disappointment and sadness over the demise of the previous business. "It was a low, trying to find a way," Sterling recalls, "with the emotional withdrawal and pain."
At BiznusSoft Mohammed struggled, questioning himself when employees looked to him for guidance and he needed it, himself. "I wondered if I could really pull this off by myself," he concedes. But all of that is over for both of them.
After signing the utility customer, who was both confident and excited, Mohammed felt "confident and enthusiastic" at the prospect of winning future clients.
Sterling, president of the Washington, D.C., Entrepreneurs' Organization, is on a high now. "We're back where we were with the previous company," she comments. "I'm feeling happy with the framework. We can all work the way we want to and have freedom to be with our families without driving through northern Virginia traffic."
Did they create structure where it had been absent? For last year Sterling reports $1.1 million in gross sales. Mohammed reports $136,432 year-to-date at this writing.

The Global FlyFisher - The Largest and Best Place to go for Online Fly Fishing and Fly Tying
GFF Videos
Sulfur/PMD Sparkle Dun
For this tutorial, I chose a fly created and popularized by Craig Matthews, the Sparkle Dun. This fly is a modified version of the comparadun, and represents a number of stages occurring before the dun is fully emerged. Featuring an Allen Fly Fishing hook for this tie (http://www.allenflyfishing.com/d101bl-standard-dry-fly-barbless/), I selected a sulfur / pmd pattern, which can be easily adjusted to match the mayfly of your choice. Be sure to locate the correct deer hair to ensure a proper wing when tying, as I show in the video. Thanks for viewing and, as always, feel free to leave questions / comments here or email me:

The staff was friendly. It is an average motel for truck drivers and construction people that need a place to crash and sleep for the night. They were helpful to get me connected to the WiFi and probably anything else if needed. No complaints.
The room was old and the bathroom could use a heavy, bleach washing on the floor. The pillows were lumpy and small. I am happy I had 4 pillows so I could stack them up. I did not have trouble sleeping, though.
Nice staff, size of room & fridge was nice. Beds are very comfortable!
It's out in country, not many restaurants in town that are nice, but there is bigger town close by with more options.
The only good thing about this place is it's proximity to the highway.
It stunk when I walked in the room. The ability to sleep throughout the night was close to nonexistent due to the feeling of having a dirty room. When I woke up and began getting things ready for my son and I to leave, there was a huge cockroach running across the floor that was at least 2 to 3 inches long. After that I got all of our things together as quickly as possible and got out of there.
Front desk clerk was very helpful and nice!
Recliner was broken. Hangers were broken. Tub drained very slowly.
There is nothing about this place to like...
It smelled. It was dirty with stains and burns all over the place in non-smoking rooms. Run down and not in a nice neighborhood either. Horrible experience....
unexperienced staff...gave us a 3rd class room at first...then we ask for what we ask for(2 Queen beds)...excellent then...AAA ratedTYClaude
The breakfast area was very clean & food was kept up quite nicely. Rooms were fair size
Rooms to the right are right on highway path
We were traveling and check in was quick and convenient. Desk staff was super friendly. The room was clean and beds were comfy. A last minute request for a nonsmoking room was accepted.
Breakfast was average, however the hotel was sold out for our stay and many people were enjoying breakfast. There was only one attendant in the dining room and she was trying her best to keep everything stocked.
convenient, free wi fi , free breakfast

Scientist InterviewNo OfferNegative ExperienceEasy Interview
I applied online. The process took 3+ months – interviewed at Novartis Pharmaceuticals (Cambridge, MA).
I applied online and after 2 weeks I talked to the hiring manager over the phone. He was friendly and professional and we talked about my skills and past experience.
After a month I went for on-site interview. Surprisingly, I did not know the schedule until two days before, so it was difficult to arrange for acceptable transportation. Even more surprisingly, Novartis did not provide any lunch or assistance to get one, although 'lunch' word was on the agenda. Moreover, the hiring manager turned out to be an intimidating person, or I should say, was the master of intimidation. Fortunately, everyone else was just opposite - professional and friendly. I left with very mixed filings.
Despite I was disappointed with the image of Novartis I still decided to follow up - wrote a nice letter to the manager asking how things move. Zero response for next two months. Probably my email ended up in spam, how otherwise lack of response for such a long time can be explained??? By the way, they never reimbursed my expenses I had during the interview.
EDIT: to be fair - I just got the reimbursement check.
Importantly, after couple more months Novartis re-posted the same job description under a DIFFERENT Job Title and number; an entry level position this time!!! Cannot make up your mind, or too busy with internal reorganizations?
What a cool example of good business conduct.

Scientist InterviewNo OfferNeutral ExperienceEasy Interview
The process took 1 day – interviewed at Novartis Pharmaceuticals (San Carlos, CA) in March 2010.
I applied through one of the job boards then received the call from the hiring manager in a week. I was then called for a personal interview (half a day) with five people (RA, SRA, Scientist, hiring manager and Director) 1:1 talk. Almost all of them felt that I was overqualified for the position and they frankly told me that. Anyways, it went on well and I already got the feeling that they might go for another candidate. In a week, I received the email from HR/HM that they went for another candidate suitable to the job description. Overall, it was a good experience.

It was an all day interview consisting of the seminar (~40 minutes) and 30 minute meetings with individual team members, up to the VP, as well as a tour of the facilities. We had lunch in the the company cafeteria, courtesy of the department, and the food was above average. Overall, it was a good interview experience.

Hey you....yes you!
Hi, I'm Jason. Here's a few things that you might need to know about me. I'm sarcastic, opinionated, too serious, an over analyzer, demand a lot (the best) out of people, and sometimes shy (which generally means I really like you). However, if you can get past these "alleged" character flaws of mine, you'll find out I can be a pretty enjoyable person. In my free time I play on an indoor soccer team, go hiking at Red Rock/Charleston, and mountain bike. I can seriously have fun doing jussstt about anything. I prefer going out in small groups as opposed to large crowds. I have the tendency of taking off my clothes when I get really drunk. I'm the kind of guy you can take home to your mother or take home for the night. ;-) When people get hurt, I laugh...then try to help. When bad things happen I try to think of how it could have been worse and be thankful it wasn't. I guess I'm an optimistic pessimist. "Huh?", you say. I see the glass as half empty (pessimist), which I like because it leaves room for improvement, (optimist). I'm very observant and pay close attention to small details. This means I find happiness in the small things in life that others are too busy to notice; however, unfortunately this also means I'm quick to find flaws as well. I've learned to get through life you have to have skin as tough as a rhino, yet I am still amazed at how much little things, I'll call them the splinters of life, can still hurt. Generally I'm a good judge of character and a tough person to gain approval from. You may make a lasting impression on me, yet be the last to know it since I'm very good at hiding my feelings and plans. Even though I may not disclose it, I always have a plan, both short term and long term. Want advice? Let the little things slide because in a year you will look back and either not remember them or wonder why you let them bother you so much. Smile more, they go a long way. Surround yourself with successful people that can make you laugh even when you're going through tough times. When someone helps you out, Pay it Forward. Next time you are stuck in traffic and you're mad because you are going to be late, be thankful you are not involved in the accident that is causing the traffic. When someone apologizes after doing something on accident that pisses you off think about all the times you have done something that accidentally made someone mad and just smile and say "it's okay". When you've had a bad day just think how your worst day is probably better than the best day of people's lives in third world countries.

What's Plan B for Obama?
OK, Mr. President, what's Plan B? The mood at the White House is strikingly somber. The usual suspects — optimistic and filled with shameless spin on Barack Obama's great feats — are scared.
After the Massachusetts shocker, when Downtown Scotty Brown slam-dunked his way to the Senate, taking Democrats' 60-vote control, the Supreme Court threw out decades of campaign finance restrictions, ruling that corporations may spend as much of their own money as they want to influence elections.
And we thought special interests already had too much control on our politicians. New regulations on financial institutions? Forget it. Special environmental perks for the biggest? Practically signed, sealed and delivered.
Obama admits he has made mistakes. How about ignoring healthcare and not taking the trouble even to propose a bill, let alone fight for it? Now he's willing to compromise. Obama says he'll work with Republicans. But most Republicans never wanted a healthcare bill to pass this year. Politically, they're better off to wait and see if they can get what they want next year. After the midterm elections in November, when the entire House and one-third of the Senate will be elected, more Republicans will enter Congress.
The jobs crisis is not getting any better, with double-digit unemployment. Small businesses, the backbone of the economy, won't make new hires if they can't afford employee health insurance.
A trillion dollars is now the new billion. Facing a national debt of $12.33 trillion, if we stacked dollars bills on top of each other, the number of them needed to total our debt would cover the distance to the moon four times.
What a mess!
As more U.S. soldiers head to Afghanistan, the Taliban openly attacks the capital of Kabul. Obama hasn't figured out what to do about the detainees at Guantanamo, supposed to have been closed by now. Poor Haiti will need every dollar and aid worker we can spare. And we haven't even tackled such problems as crumbling infrastructure, the coming shortages in Social Security and Medicare and our failing education system.
So, back to Plan B. It undoubtedly will mean less hubris, new advisers, presidential appeals for patience and understanding, more Band-Aids, more bipartisan talks, more spending (on job "stimulus" plans that will be labeled something else).
But Plan B also must involve one of those "second acts" popular in politics. Americans are not unreasonable, but Obama unreasonably expected them to buy into a health plan nobody could explain. He expected them to trust that he was doing everything he could to help the economy. There actually is little a president can do to lift the economy out of recession.
Recent political events are not a ringing endorsement of Republicans for they have shown no special skills in governing either. In politics, everything can change on a dime. Obama realistically must resign himself to losing seats in Congress this autumn. But he still has a chance to redeem his political leadership by being more forthright, more visionary, more take-charge and more in the fray.
It is too soon to say this is a failed presidency as long as Obama doesn't pull a Palin and quit on us.

I'm using PC Suit Nokia connectivity API (3.2) to gather information about very big files on the phone (about 2GB). To do it, i need to read file in diffirent parts (usually usefull information in the end of file). I don't want to read whole file, cause it will take to much time. CONA API presents two function for reading files:
DWORD CONAReadFile(FSHANDLE hFSHandle, LPCONAPI_FILE_INFO pFileInfo, unsigned char** ppFileData, DWORD dwLimitedReadSize, const WCHAR* pstrTargetPath);
PCCS_FSAPI CONAReadFileInBlocks( FSHANDLE hFSHandle, LPCONAPI_FILE_INFO pFileInfo, DWORD dwOptions, void* pFSBlockDataNotify, DWORD dwFileDataBlockSize, const WCHAR* pstrTargetPath );
Both of them provide reading file from the begining. Is there any way to read file from specific position without reading all previous information?
Programming language is C++. Phone connected in PC Suite mode and i can't change it to usb flash drive mode by the condition of the problem (i need to work with application installed on the phone same time).

At the time Asia Transpacific Journeys receives your written cancellation, the following per-person penalties will apply: 90 days or more before departure: Full refund minus $500. 89 to 60 days before departure: Forfeit 50% of the tour cost, along with any non-refundable costs paid to suppliers. 59 or fewer days before departure: No refunds.

What to expect: To fully enjoy the program's marine life- and wildlife-viewing opportunities, WWF travelers should be fit, in good health and able to participate in moderately strenuous activities. You should be an experienced snorkeler who is comfortable being in waters with moderately swift currents and should have the ability to stay in the water for an hour or more at a time. You also need to be able to pull yourself up from the water and into a small boat or Zodiac landing craft via a ladder.

Transport during the tour is by motor coach and boat.
The snorkeling destinations in this itinerary were selected based on professional assessments of the reefs in June 2015. Please be aware that climatic events, such as coral bleaching, may occur at any time and could adversely affect the reefs. Tour organizers will continue to monitor conditions and provide timely updates to registrants when relevant.
Trip insurance: We suggest that travelers protect themselves by purchasing trip insurance; it is not required for this tour but highly recommended. You can purchase insurance at any point before your departure, but there may be a benefit to purchasing it now. For instance, policies usually exclude coverage for preexisting medical conditions, but this exclusion is frequently waived if you purchase your insurance within two weeks of your booking date.
Understandings & responsibilities: In order to offer wildlife-oriented travel experiences to its members, World Wildlife Fund (WWF) has arranged for an independent Tour Operator(s) to organize this tour and procure carriage, accommodations, and other tour services from other parties. WWF serves only to assist in making necessary travel arrangements and in no way represents, or acts as agent for, transportation carriers, hotels, or any other suppliers of services connected with this tour.

Hook (1991)
99 mistakes
Directed by: Steven Spielberg
Starring: Bob Hoskins, Dustin Hoffman, Julia Roberts, Maggie Smith, Robin Williams
Continuity mistake: Moira throws the cell phone out the window with the antenna extended and the flap opened, and it is buried by Nana this way. When Peter finds it at the end of the movie however, the antenna is down and the flap is closed.
Continuity mistake: When Smee and Captain Hook are alone on the ship at night, Smee stands up just after eating chicken off his plate. His blue bandana hangs down his left shoulder near his plate. However, after a shot of Hook when it faces Smee again his bandana is now short, just resting on his left shoulder.
Continuity mistake: After finding his son hit a home run in the game with the pirates, Peter decides he must learn how to fly. The ball his son hit comes flying from the sky and hits Peter in the head, knocking him over. When he hits the ground, he is lying on grass, but one second later he opens his eyes on grey rock.
Continuity mistake: When Smee gives Hook his nightcap drink, Hook takes it in his hand and holds it at the top of the goblet so that it is hidden under his hand. But in the very next shot he is holding it by the handle and the whole goblet is now visible with a small black umbrella sticking out the top. Additionally, the position of the small umbrella that sits in the goblet changes a few times.
Continuity mistake: At the end of the food fight, when Peter stands on a tall rock and looks over the scene, he is smudged with paint. In the next shot, the paint smudges are very different.
Revealing mistake: In the last scene that we see Maggie and Jack before they are kidnapped, when the bed covers fly off their beds, you can see that they are suspended by their corners. This is particularly obvious when they are lifted up. The middle of the quilt sags while the corners are lifted.
Continuity mistake: When Peter gives Jack the pocket watch, the time displayed on it changes from 7:40 to 7:55 between shots.
Revealing mistake: When Rufio brings the sword down on the rope holding the slingshot, you can hear the intended sound effect, but the rope is not cut.
Continuity mistake: When Peter gets hit with the baseball his son hit, it looks like in the shot behind the flying ball, that it's going to miss his head by several inches. But when it cuts to the front angle, the ball hits him squarely in the head.
Continuity mistake: When Hook is bent down talking to Jack in the shop full of broken clocks, his hand keeps moving from either resting on Jack's shoulder or his arm.
Continuity mistake: When Peter is shot with the arrows, he has big patches of red, blue, yellow and green goop on his shirt. The patches are all big and touch each other, yet when Peter runs from the sniffing flowers, the stains are all smaller.
Continuity mistake: When Smee and Hook talk alone in the ship, Smee walks to the table, picks up a plate, and starts picking up food. Then it cuts and now Smee is holding the plate, with a red napkin underneath it which wasn't there previously.
Continuity mistake: When Hook gets his gun to attempt suicide, Smee runs to the model Neverland, and his sleeves are rolled all the way up his arms, yet when it cuts and he grabs the small boat from the water, his sleeves are rolled down to his wrists.
Continuity mistake: When Maggie shows Peter the paper flower that Tootles made for her, she holds it with both hands but in the next shot is only holding it with her right hand. Also the "stem" of the flower changes from being rather straight to slightly crooked.
Continuity mistake: When Peter is fighting Hook in front of the crocodile clock, he uses his sword tip to fling the pirate-hat and its wig attachment off of Hook's head and it flies over and lands on one of the Lost Boys heads. When it lands on his head it is wonky. But in the next shot it is sitting on his head perfectly straight and is then wonky again in the next shot.
Continuity mistake: When Peter is carrying his children away from Hook's ship to leave Neverland, Hook starts running after him, threatening to always "leave daggers with notes bearing the name Hook" and then he stops at the top of the ramp. In the closeup he is waving his hooked hand as he shouts after Peter, but in the next shot he is waving his left hand forward, holding his sword outwards.
Revealing mistake: Many times during the film when characters are flying, it is clear that they are flying on a harness due to their stiff, rigid movement and also due to the bulkiness that will suddenly appear on their back. It is especially noticeable at the end when Tootles sprinkles the faerie dust over himself and flies out the nursery window.
Continuity mistake: At the end of the movie when Peter crawls into Nana's doghouse to greet her (after returning from Neverland) he shakes the doghouse a little as he crawls in, causing snow to fall of its roof, which lands in the two dogbowls next to it. But in the next shot the dogbowls are now empty with no snow in them and also there is a long bone sticking out one of the bowls too.
Continuity mistake: When the nursery windows are opened (as Peter and the kids return) we see an orange leaf float inside the room and land on Moira's neck. In the next shot it is on her shoulder.
Continuity mistake: When Peter gives the sword to the Lost Boy he chooses to leave in charge of Neverland, the Lost Boy holds the sword out, upright. In the next shot he is holding it down and once again lifts it upright.

This is pretty much what we imagine happened to all the mean girls after high school. And we're loving it! The trailer for Charlize's Theron's Young Adult debuted today, and we are pretty psyched for its release on Decemeber 9. Theron reportedly plays Mavis Gary, a down-and-out young adult writer who returns to her home town to seduce her (now married)(and child-having) high school ex.
Hijinks and terribly unflattering lipstick ensue! We love her co-stars, the adorable Patrick Wilson and the excellent comedian Patton Oswalt, but based on the trailer, don't you find Charlize's character slightly less sympathetic than she was in Monster, even though technically speaking she was playing a serial killer in that one? Just us then? But she almost won an Oscar for it! Okay, we'll stop.

Raonic, who will see his ATP World Tour ranking rise to a career-high No. 6, was the youngest Grand Slam finalist since Andy Murray at the Australian Open four years ago. But he's not quite ready for the tennis at the highest level; this was his eighth straight loss to a player ranked in the top four.
Federer, with the grim countenance of an assassin, broke Raonic's very first service game. And though there were a few squirrely moments, he served out the set and created some nice, creative space for himself.
Raonic settled down and began to find a rhythm. But serving at 4-all, his concentration briefly left him. He failed to make a first serve in five tries, starting off with a double fault. A Federer backhand winner down the line was followed by a horrific blown overhead only a few feet from the net. Federer closed the deal, lacing another backhand winner down the line and sauntered to the sideline. He's earned that swagger because he is now 219-2 in major matches when he wins the first two sets.
The break in the third set came again at 4-all, when Raonic made three errors and allowed Federer to win what looked like a hopeless point with a sweet, anticipating forehand.
After his quarterfinals win over 19-year-old Australian Nick Kyrgios, Raonic sent another volley -- this time, aimed at the Big Four.
"It's a thing I guess that you can't really outrun time," Raonic said. "It's nice to see that sort of human side to those four guys when you have to step up to face them. Have a belief more so than ever that it's yours for the taking if you play well."
The only thing Raonic will be taking from this one is the memory of a master-class session -- and maybe a vacation. Federer, meanwhile, has one more match to play. It's one he's been working for ruthlessly through a string of less-than-stellar results.
Pete Sampras won here at Wimbledon in 2000, then went eight majors without a title. He wasn't in great form heading into the 2002 US Open, but he splashed through the draw for his then-record 14th Grand Slam singles title and eventually retired at age of 31.
Twenty-one years to the day, Sampras won his first Wimbledon title, defeating Jim Courier. Twenty-six years to the day, Edberg won his first title at the All England Club, defeating Boris Becker, who is now Djokovic's coach.
Federer's hoping it's an omen.
A win on Sunday would make him the first man to win Wimbledon eight times, one more than Sampras.
"I know I don't have 10 [Wimbledons] left," Federer said. "The first win here was a dream come true. And now the fact that I get another chance to go through these emotions is great."

Mayhem # 3012524
About MeI am a very experienced photographer who focuses on sensual and erotic images, edited with exceptional detail. I have worked with scores of models from beginners to professional who can attest to my skill but also the relaxed nature with which I work. For me, no sense doing this if it cannot be fun. Extremely professional, responsible and reliable....guaranteed. While I do not own a studio, I have worked at numerous locations in the area that offer privacy and stunning backdrops.
POTD 18+ Winner...May 17, 2014
I like to describe my work as artistic nudes....sensual, a bit provocative, yet tasteful. Photographs that not only capture the body in all its beauty and form, but also are portrayed in a manner that is artistic and complementary to you as a person. If you are just starting out with nude photography you will find me to be respectful and able to assist you in this new path. If you are experienced in this field, I like to believe that I can provide you with a new perspective of your body and soul.
I was honored to have 20 images of my work published this past month in the online magazine "Michelle 7."
Feel free to follow up for more details and additional images.

37 year old man | Laughlin, NV, USA | Seeking women 25-35 within 50 miles
There is no "Try
I am an easy going guy; I get along with just about everyone. I can be shy or reserved when placed in a new environment or meeting someone new for the first time but once I feel comfortable I really open up. I love to laugh and have a good time. Acting silly and doing crazy things are part of who I am, but there is a time and place for everything. I am honest almost to a fault; many times my friends tell me I need a filter. I have gotten better at censoring my statements, LOL. I really cannot stand liars or cheaters. I don?t use drugs or associate with people who do. I do my best to lead a drama free life although some drama is unavoidable. I have been burned a few times before but I do my best to trust until I have a reason not to. I do have friends but not many I would consider to be true friends. I have a 6 year old son who is my world. I have primary custody of him and he lives with me 85% of the year. His mother lives in Utah which is hard as far as visitation goes for her but it is nice as there is little or no baby mama drama. Do not expect to meet him right away; I do not want people in and out of his life like a revolving door. I am not looking for a mother for him however he is part of the package so you must be able to accept that. He is such a smart and well mannered young man I can?t imagine that anyone wouldn?t love him. I would like to meet someone that is willing to put as much into a relationship as I am. I am tired of always being the one giving and not getting anything back. I like knowing that I make the person I am with happy. I enjoy doing small things sometimes just notes or silly texts to let them know they are important to me. I want to be loved for me and who I am not what I have or don't have. I do believe that in a relationship being together is important but so is personal time. I was born and raised on military installations so manners and being gentlemen have been impressed upon me from birth. I very close to my family so as you can imagine family is very important to me. I am kind and compassionate however, do not mistake my kindness for weakness, I will stand my ground when need be. Hope to hear from you soon, if not I wish you the best in your search for your special someone.
