Product description
'A dazzling, exhilarating adventure joining 18th-century printer Nicholas Flood and his motley band on a quest for the infinite book...A joy for anyone who loves stories and a must for everyone who loves books.' Big Issue The year is 1717. Stung by the mysterious death of his only son, Count Ostrov renounces army life and retires to his remote island retreat. There, in mourning, he loses himself in his love of puzzles, turning the very fabric of his spectacular Slav castle into a giant, mechanical conundrum of revolving doors, moving floors and unstable staircases. The Count brings to this impossible castle the legendary English printer Nicholas Flood, and charges him with the task of producing a book without beginning or end. But no sooner has Flood set about his quest than he meets the Count's beautiful, brilliant and yet somehow damaged daughter, Irena. In the shadows cast by the wheels and cogs of the clockwork castle, Flood finds himself distracted from the task in hand, and instead begins work on another book entirely, a secret gift for a secret lover -- a tiny octavo volume with one word, Desire, gold-tooled on its spine...

Author information
thomas wharton is the author of one previous novel, Icefields (1994), of which the Telegraph said: 'Crosses Ondaatje's The English Patient with Hoeg's Miss Smilla's Feeling for Snow... ironic, brilliant and unforgettable.'
Review quote
'A magical tale of books and riddles, castles and countesses... Gloriously inventive.' Elle 'A quest for the Perfect Book, the ultimate, world-containing volume, which this wonder-tale records and likewise exemplifies. Wharton's prose style is flexible, poetic, inventive and always lucid. Beguiling.' Eric Korn, Guardian 'Everyday things blossom with wonder in Thomas Wharton's Salamander... a vigorous, imaginative novel about the power of reading and invention. Each of the criss-crossing storylines is a cinematic epic on its own.' Quill & Quire 'A magical tale spanning continents and time.' Eastern Daily Press from the reviews for Icefields: 'Wharton has a fine sense of description, dialogue that is as spare as the landscape and a subtle hand with narrative.' Publishers Weekly 'Wharton's crisp prose transports you to the edge of the glacier... This is a clean, pensive book that inspires contemptlation of one's own visions.' Time Out 'Crosses Ondaatje's The English Patient with Hoeg's Miss Smilla's Feeling for Snow... ironic, brilliant and unforgettable.' Telegraph
Editorial reviews
The publishers of this fascinating, phantasmagorical novel describe it as 'a glorious odyssey combining the gothic splendour of Tim Burton with the intellectual adventure of Umberto Eco'. For once, this isnt just publishers hyperbole: the bizarre vision of the director of Batman does rub shoulders here with the erudition and fantastic wordplay of the author of The Name of the Rose. Salamander is set in the year 1717. The enigmatic Count Ostrov is mourning the death of his son, and escaping from his grief in his enthusiasm for puzzles. He even converts his splendid Slav castle into a towering mechanical puzzle, with doors that revolve and staircases that move. The English painter Nicholas Flood is summoned across the ocean to produce for the Count a fantastic book which is to have no beginning and no end. But Flood is distracted from his monumental task by the seductive charms of the Count's beautiful daughter, although he senses that there is something strange about her. As the surrealistic machinery of the castle whirrs and grinds around him, Flood finds himself drawn away from his commission for the Count, and he begins to produce a different book entirely for the object of his infatuation - a small octavo volume with just one word engraved in gold on its spine: Desire. To read Whartons novel is to enter another world, and be entranced by prose of strange, glittering beauty. Perhaps the shades of other novels hang heavy (not just Ecos masterpiece, but Peakes Gormenghast also), but Salamander is a very individual and magical work in its own right. (Kirkus UK)

Bowood House and Gardens opens between April and November every year and is open 7 days a week.
Bowood House is the magnificent family home of the Marquis and Marchioness of Lansdowne.
Bowood House:
Begun c1720, Bowood House was purchased by the 2nd Earl of Shelburne in 1754 and completed soon afterwards.
Interesting rooms include Robert Adam's Library, the Laboratory where Dr Joseph Priestley discovered oxygen in 1774, and the Chapel that is still used for family services.
On display within the numerous Exhibition Rooms are remarkable collections of family heirlooms and works of art built up over 250 years.
These include Georgian costumes; Victoriana, Indiana and superb collections of watercolours, miniatures and jewellery.
The pleasure grounds cover approximately 100 acres, with the formal gardens and terraces immediately around the house.
Bowood Gardens:
Bowood House itself is set in the middle of Capability' Brown's grade 1 park.
The upper terrace was designed by Sir Robert Smirk in 1818, the lower terrace by George Kennedy in 1851.
The pleasure grounds, which form part of Capability Brown's grand design of 1760, contain an outstanding collection of trees and shrubs, all of which are labelled and can be identified with the aid of a tree guide.
There are, within the collection, nine champions.
The original plantings date back to the 1760's.
Rhododendron Walks:
Bowood's separate Rhododendron Walks which are open late April to mid-June, depending on the flowering season are located almost 2 miles from the house.
The third Marquis of Lansdowne began developing this woodland area in 1854.
Almost thirty original hardy hybrid rhododendrons, which were thought to be extinct, have recently been discovered within the collection making it one of the earliest rhododendron gardens in the country.
Adventure Playground:
Families love the amazing Adventure Playground, one of the most exciting playgrounds in Wiltshire.
Bowood House boasts a life-size pirate ship, aerial rope walks, giant slides and the famous Space Dive.
There is an indoor Soft Play Palace for younger children and birthday party packages are available.
The parkland provides ample space for games and picnics, the perfect location for children to burn off their endless energy.

Spring 2014 Course Descriptions
English 3009G Myth and Culture (3 Sections)
English 3009G Section 002 CRN 31603
Myth and Culture 1100-1215 TR
This course will involve an in-depth look at the myths and culture of three Asian countries, namely, India, China, and Japan. In the Indian segment, we will read the Hindu and the Buddhist (the Hinayana or the Theravada) myths. The study of Hinduism will include the Vedic and Puranic (The Mahabharata and Bhagavad Gita) Mythology. The Chinese segment will include the study of Confucianism and Taoism. Finally, the Japanese segment will focus on Zen Buddhism and Shinto Mythology. The primary orientation of this study will be to develop a clear understanding of (a) philosophical and religious interpretations of the concepts of creation/origin of the world, death, divinity, fate, the ultimate goal(s) of human life, etc., and (b) social systems and moral/ethical values of these cultures. Whenever possible, we will also compare the commonalities and differences among these three Asian cultures and mythologies. Course requirements will include mid-term and final exams, one research paper, and active preparation and class participation. (Group 5)
English 3009G Section 003 CRN 31604
Myth and Culture 1400-1450 MWF
The poet Muriel Rukeyser wrote that "The universe is made of stories, not of atoms." Myth and Culture is a course about such stories, stories so powerful that they shape the ways in which people come to understand the world and its possibilities. We will read ancient stories that do just that: the story of Gilgamesh (the oldest written story), the Book of Job, the Bhagavad-Gita, Homer's Iliad (in excerpts), and Sophocles's Theban plays.
The course will require dedicated daily work (reading and talking), several short pieces of writing, and a final examination. (Group 5)

As more golfers explore the counterbalance-putter craze, manufacturers are naturally inclined to get into the marketplace as well. It's why Scotty Cameron by Titleist entered the category earlier this year with the Futura X Dual Balance putter and why the company announced Tuesday that it was adding two other new models to the Dual Balance line.
Joining the Futura X are the Newport 2 and GoLo 7. Each 38-inch putters features 15-inch, large-diameter grips. The heads, which have a "frozen titanium" finish, also weigh 50 grams more than standard with a 50-gram counterweight in the butt end.
"That eliminates the tendency for many players to flip, push or lead with their hands," says designer Scotty Cameron.
Cameron added that the company did extensive research on shaft flex to make sure the putters ($399) worked as designed.Follow @EMichaelGW

Below is the poem entitled The Pain I feel which was written by poet
Bess. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Dion Bess
Right now my heart is full of pain.
Each day it's getting harder for me to maintain.
Because it's cold and I can't stand the rain.
And just because I'm a gangster society is disdain.
Disdain with my way of living.
Now they got me wondering will I ever be forgiving.
Will society ever forgive me for the choices I made.
Even thou I'm a proud American I still feel betrayed.
Now I'm bleeding from within because I'm society slave.
Deprave by this world but trap within this crime wave.

UPDATES with winger backlash after the jump.** Former Arkansas Gov. and current Fox News host Mike Huckabee has been downplaying the idea that he'll run for president in 2012. And not a moment too soon. Turns out, the man wanted in connection with mowing down four police officers in a Seattle-area diner had his 35-year prison sentence commuted by the Huckster back in the day. From the Seattle Times:
Maurice Clemmons, the 37-year-old Tacoma man being sought for questioning in the killing of four Lakewood police officers this morning, has a long criminal record punctuated by violence, erratic behavior and concerns about his mental health.
Nine years ago, then-Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee granted clemency to Clemmons, commuting his lengthy prison sentence over the protests of prosecutors.
"This is the day I've been dreading for a long time," Larry Jegley, prosecuting attorney for Arkansas' Pulaski County said Sunday night when informed that Clemmons was being sought in connection to the killings.
Clemmons' criminal history includes at least five felony convictions in Arkansas and at least eight felony charges in Washington. The record also stands out for the number of times he has been released from custody despite questions about the danger he posed.
Clemmons had been in jail in Pierce County for the past several months on a pending charge of second-degree rape of a child.
He was released from custody just six days ago, even though he was wanted on a fugitive warrant out of Arkansas and was staring at eight felony charges in all out of Washington state.
Clemmons posted $15,000 with a Chehalis company called Jail Sucks Bail Bonds. The bondsman, in turn, put up $150,000, securing Clemmons' release on the pending child-rape charge.
Huckabee won't be the only one to blame. There appear to be a number of agencies and individuals who ignored multiple warning sings that Clemmons was unstable:
In another instance, Clemmons was accused of gathering his wife and young relatives around at 3 or 4 in the morning and having them all undress. He told them that families need to "be naked for at least 5 minutes on Sunday," a Pierce County sheriff's report says.
"The whole time Clemmons kept saying things like trust him, the world is going to end soon, and that he was Jesus," the report says.
As part of the child-rape investigation, the sheriff's office interviewed Clemmons' sister in May. She told them that "Maurice is not in his right mind and did not know how he could react when contacted by Law Enforcement," a sheriff's report says.
"She stated that he was saying that the secret service was coming to get him because he had written a letter to the President. She stated his behavior has become unpredictable and erratic. She suspects he is having a mental breakdown," the report says.
Deputies also interviewed other family members. They reported that Clemmons had been saying he could fly and that he expected President Obama to visit to "confirm that he is Messiah in the flesh."
But the Huck's going to pay a political price anyway for this Fort Hood-style mess anyway, especially with his frenemies on the right, who already hate his guts for once having raised taxes, and for droning on about icky "compassion" for the poor. But the question that no one on the right will dare to ask is: why is it so easy for mentally unstable people like Clemmons, and the Virginia Tech shooter, among others, to get their hands on guns? And shouldn't there be some restriction on gun ownership when it comes to people with demonstrated mental illness? I'm guessing the answer on the right will be "no." Because that's how they roll. In fact, some wingers in Congress want to give the mentally unstable even more guns to shoot down police officers and civilians with.
Prayers go out to the families of the dead officers, and god help us all.
UPDATE: It starts. RedState pounces, officially declaring the end of Mike Huckabee's political career. Malkin lays into Huckabee above the fold, and links to a post from Brian D. Wurts, president of the Lakewood Police Independent Gild, who uses the tragedy of the slain officers to make a political statement and to promote the tea party movement. Seriously.
Tina was our conservative friend. She was excited to be a part of the Olympia Tea Parties and proudly stated why she got involved in politics over the past year. Tina was sharp too, only a couple mornings ago we had a great discussion on the future of our Republic and how we felt true limited government conservatives should take back out [sic] political party. If you wanted any details over the massive government spending she would have them for you. If anyone thinks these comments are off color then you did not know Tina well. She would tell you where you could go and like Mark you always knew where you stood with her.
Um … okay… btw, the Lakewood Police Independent Guild appears to be … wait for it … a union:
The LPIG is active in bargaining our contracts, increasing member's benefits, supporting Law Enforcement issues locally and through our work in WACOPS, aggressively defending our member's rights, and working in the community in areas that further our goals.
I thought tea party types didn't believe in Socialistic things like collective bargaining. Hm… Politico covers the fire on the right.
Meanwhile: Read the 2004 clemency documents for yourself. And Huckabee has released a statement:
The senseless and savage execution of police officers in Washington State has saddened the nation, and early reports indicate that a person of interest is a repeat offender who once lived in Arkansas and was wanted on outstanding warrants here and Washington State. The murder of any individual is a profound tragedy, but the murder of a police officer is the worst of all murders in that it is an assault on every citizen and the laws we live within.
Should he be found to be responsible for this horrible tragedy, it will be the result of a series of failures in the criminal justice system in both Arkansas and Washington State. He was recommended for and received a commutation of his original sentence from 1990. This commutation made him parole eligible and he was then was paroled by the parole board once they determined he met the conditions at that time. He was arrested later for parole violation and taken back to prison to serve his full term, but prosecutors dropped the charges that would have held him. It appears that he has continued to have a string of criminal and psychotic behavior but was not kept incarcerated by either state. This is a horrible and tragic event and if found and convicted the offender should be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law. Our thoughts and prayers are and should be with the families of those honorable, brave, and heroic police officers.

Bryant Taylor Aldridge
DURHAM — Bryant Taylor Aldridge passed away peacefully August 7, 2013, at the Hillcrest Convalescence Center in Durham, North Carolina.
Bryant, or "B", as he was affectionately called by his grandchildren, was born November 8, 1933 in Kinston, North Carolina. He was preceded in death by his parents, Jesse Alton Aldridge and Nannie Taylor Aldridge; and his brother, Jesse Alton Aldridge Jr.
He attended Grainger High School in Kinston, where he was the only Grainger student to be class president all four years of high school, the only student to win 12 varsity letters, and the only student who was co-captain of the football, basketball and baseball teams. He was a high school football All-American and a participant and co-captain in the 1951 Shrine Bowl Game and East-West All Star Game. He graduated from Duke University in 1956, where he was class president his freshman year and earned three varsity letters as a member of the Duke football team. He helped lead Duke to victories in two of his more memorable games over No. 1 Ohio State in 1955 and Nebraska 34-7 in the 1955 Orange Bowl. He was a member of the Kappa Alpha fraternity, the Red Friars Honorary Society, and recognized at graduation for character and leadership with the Robert E. Lee Award. In 2007, he was inducted into the Kinston-Lenoir County Sports Hall of Fame.
In 1963 he obtained his Masters of Science Degree in hospital administration from Northwestern University. He also graduated from the Executive Program at UNC Chapel Hill, and did Post Graduate work in hospital administration at Cornell University.
On November 1, 1966, Bryant was chosen to oversee the planning, construction and management of Nash County's newest facility, Nash General Hospital.

He conceptualized and helped develop Nash General Hospital, the first all private room public hospital, which has now become the industry standard. In 1983, he pioneered the "day hospital" concept, building North Carolina's first free standing out-patient hospital, Nash Day Hospital. On November 8, 1999, the Bryant T. Aldridge Rehabilitation Center was dedicated in his honor on the Nash Healthcare System campus.
In addition to Bryant's contributions to the healthcare community in Rocky Mount, he was a long time member and served as chairman of several civic groups including the American Red Cross, the Rotary Club, the Board of Planters Bank, charter board member of North Carolina State Bank and Area Health Education Center, Board of Trustees of the North Carolina Hospital Association, past President and Trustee of Carolinas Hospital and Health Services, and past Chairman of Volunteer Hospital America Carolinas-Tennessee. Throughout his time in Rocky Mount, he was an active and loyal member of the First United Methodist Church, serving on the administrative board and trustees.
Bryant has been a long time fan and supporter of Duke University, serving in many leadership capacities, guest lecturer, the Iron Dukes, the Gridiron Society and the James B. Duke Society. In 2002, the offensive backs coach's office located in the Yoh Football Center was named The Bryant T. Aldridge Family Coach's Office.
Further achievements and recognitions include: Tarheel of the Week, in June 1996; Distinguished Service Award, North Carolina Hospital Association 1996; Paul Harris Fellow, Rotary International 1997; Distinguished Citizen Award, Rocky Mount Chamber of Commerce 1999; Special Achievement Award, North Carolina Area Health Education Center; and Trustee Emeritus, Health Education Foundation of Eastern North Carolina, Inc.

He is also survived by his sister, Nancy Aldridge Cherry of Kinston; nephew, Julius Perkins Cherry Jr.; and nieces, Louise Cherry Mauck, Millicent Aldridge Thomas, and Sally Ann Aldridge Wood.
The family would like to express our heartfelt thanks to the staff and caregivers at Hillcrest Convalescent Center for their compassionate and professional care of our kind and wonderful husband, father and grandfather over the last several months.

Letter carrier food drive May 11
The 21st annual National Association of Letter Carriers Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive — the nation's largest annual one-day food collection event — will take place May 11.
The Postal Service urges customers to place a sturdy bag containing non-perishable foods next to their mailboxes prior to their regular mail deliveries May 11. Nearly two million such bags were donated by AARP (an organization in support of older persons) and are being delivered throughout the state to homes prior to Food Drive Day. Customers can also bring food to their local post offices for collection.
Last year, carriers collected more than 70 million pounds of food donations nationwide — the ninth consecutive year that the 70-million-pound mark was eclipsed.
All food and donations collected will go to local charities and food pantries associated with individual post offices. Included on the "most needed items" list are canned meals like stews, soups, tuna, ravioli, etc., preferably with pop-tops; peanut butter; cereal, canned fruits and vegetables; rice, pasta and dry beans; hygiene items like toothpaste, soap and shaving items; paper products like toilet paper and paper towels; and infant products like diapers, wipes, formula and infant cereal.

Newsletter archive: Autumn 2000
I sat facing
Claude Monet's Vase of Flowers at the dinner party that the Institute
held for the Getty Trustees in October 1983. The Trustees were staying
at Claridges and had never met before outside California. I had then just
been pressed into chairing the Executive Committee for the Appeal to raise
the funds for the Institute to move from 20 Portman Square to the north
block of Somerset House; a daunting task, but a challenge that I looked
forward to. The dinner was a grand occasion indeed, and a selection of
the French Impressionists had been brought from the gallery in Woburn
Square to adorn the walls of the reception rooms in Home House for this
dinner party. The picture captivated me with its careless display of mallow
flowers and its impressionistic colouring. I love flowers and I love food,
and the dinner was a happy and splendid augury for the adventure that
the Institute was about to undertake, and which I felt then that Samuel
Courtauld would have approved of because it would bring the pictures back
to the Institute again.
I learned later that the Vase is one of Monet's last still lifes, and although he painted it in 1881-2 he did not complete it until the end of his life and signed and sold it in 1920. His letters tell us that he had great difficulty with his large flower paintings of this period and he went back thankfully to landscapes when he was able to sell them. You can see how he is trying to break away from the then structured convention of still life painting with the daubs and dashes of colours. The painting had been with two dealers and Samuel Courtauld bought it in 1923. The canvas appears in photographs of the interior of Monet's house at Giverny. It is an arrangement of flowers that I can imagine in the centre of the table at the entrance of a Restaurant in France, and for me it evokes the delights of the meal to come.
It seems entirely appropriate that later Monet stayed regularly at The Savoy, and painted his views of the river, the bridges and the Houses of Parliament from his corner suite there. He must have enjoyed the culinary skills of Escoffier. It is perhaps sad that he could not have dreamed that some of his greatest paintings would eventually be hung in the neighbouring Somerset House a short way down the river. Long may they hang close to the Thames which Monet obviously loved nearly as much as his own garden at Giverny on the Seine.

After speaking with Mr. Furlong I realized that maybe accounting is not for me. It turns out that accounting is what I was expecting. There is not a big social aspect to accounting. I consider myself a social person and without a social aspect to my career I can not see myself enjoying it.

Greetings from Chile! :)
Actually, designing your own street sign is fine, Lissa, as long as it is for the good of everyone. If you plan on adding a little humor to the message, just make sure it is still safe, okay? :) Also, choose the color of your signboard wisely. Know the meaning of each colors on the road and which ones are more likely to catch the attention of people.ReplyDelete

Two men fatally shot; police say incidents appear unrelated
Two Lee County men were shot and killed in unrelated homicides Sunday.
Stacey Lamont Morrison, 31, of Sanford, was fatally shot shortly before 3:30 a.m. in the 1300 block of Goldsboro Avenue and Travis Richardson, 30, of Sanford, was fatally shot at 11:58 p.m. in the 2800 block of Eames Drive, according to Sanford Police Capt. Harold Layton.
No arrests have been made.
"At this time, we don't believe [the shootings are related], but we are checking into it," Layton said.
No other injuries were reported during the two shootings, and both of the weapons used in the incidents were handguns, he said.
Morrison, of Maple Avenue, was shot at least once and taken to the Central Carolina Hospital Emergency Department, where he later died from his injuries, according to Layton.
Mary Fox, Morrison's aunt, said he was a truck driver with a caring personality.
"He was a sweet, outgoing person," she said. "He wouldn't hurt a fly."
Fox said she didn't have any information about the shooting or what happened that night.
This is the second shooting in the 1300 block of Goldsboro Avenue since Oct. 20.
Richardson, who, according to Layton, "did stay at the [Eames Drive] apartments," was taking courses at Central Carolina Community College, according to his Facebook page.
Family members and friends expressed their condolences, prayers and support on various social media pages after news of the shooting.
"My prayers is out for y'all," said one person. "Travis is family to me. We go back since elementary [school]. I'm so hurt, I don't really know what to say. I just wish that I can call him and say 'What's up Trav' one last time."
Several shots were hurled into the apartment, and Richardson was struck by the gunfire, according to Layton. Richardson was pronounced dead at the scene by medical personnel.

Feeding the Koi
The colorful koi—or Japanese carp—that live in the pool surrounding the Arboretum's Administration Building love to be fed! Our challenge is to make sure that they eat only the special food that we purchase for them and that they don't eat too much of it. On most weekends, visitors will find this special food in dispensers on the terrace at the southeast corner of the pool. We charge 50 cents (quarters only) for a handful in order to help defray the costs of caring for the fish. We cannot keep food in the dispensers all week long as it results in over feeding the fish, which is bad for them. Feeding the fish any other type of food also causes problems, so we ask visitors to refrain from offering human food to the fish at any time.
Koi always look hungry when people approach the edge of the pool, but you needn't feel sorry for them. We treat our koi better than they would be treated if they were in the wild. Koi are naturally gluttonous and are opportunistic feeders, but in a controlled environment we must regulate their intake of food to keep both the fish and their environment healthy. Over feeding the koi causes excessive amounts of fish waste, which contributes to more algae in the pool. To keep the algae down, we use barley straw extract which inhibits algae growth naturally. We also dye the water black using a nontoxic dye to keep the algae from growing excessively; a secondary benefit is that it gives the water a reflective look.
Visitors play an important role in helping us keep the fish healthy. When they do not feed them human food and do not touch them the fish thrive. Even though the fish look "petable," touching them removes a natural slime layer, which they need as a natural barrier against disease. This layer serves as a sort of second skin.
The koi can still be enjoyed even though they aren't being fed. See if you can pick out the butterfly koi—the ones with long fins—and "Big Momma," who has gold scales and is our largest, oldest koi. She is over thirty years old!

Haunted by troubles: Ghada Abdel Razek drunk and stoned in latest shenanigans
Remember just a few months ago when Egyptian actress Ghada Abdel Razek went bonkers at Mohammad Sami, the director of her show "Hekayet Hayat" (Hayat's Story) at the time, for getting drugged up while on set?
Well, it seems that hypocrisy is in the air for Ghada, as a video of her looking very drunk and stoned was released this week.
Oh, Ghada, when will you ever learn?
According to many on social networks, the actress filmed herself after taking drugs. Fans immediately fired accusations and criticism at Ghada after watching the embarrassing vid!
Sayidaty.net reported that in the video, the troubled starlet told fans that she "misses and loves them" and then wished them a wonderful day, just before she blew them a kiss and turned the camera off.
