I just love this plant!! Every part of it is interesting. The leaves are beautiful; shiny dark green, evergreen, and have a neat shape. The small white flowers smell heavenly!! Reminds me a bit of gardenia or plumeria. I have not yet tried the fruit; right now they have just turned red, and I am waiting for them to ripen a bit more before picking them.

I have eaten many natal plums -- they have a sticky white glue-like juice, but the flavor is very good. I have many fruits on the plant now (June 4. 2009), some just starting to turn red. I trim many of the thorns to allow me access to the fruit without injury! I plan to try to harvest and dry the fruit when they mature. I'll report success - or failure!

ST. LOUIS (AP) -- After getting burned for an 83-yard touchdown pass on the first play, the Tennessee Titans' defense stood fast. The offense thrived without holdout Chris Johnson.
Steven Jackson was limited to 10 yards on six carries in his preseason debut and Sam Bradford had no other big plays in the first half and got banged around a bit, needing the backups to rally for a 17-16 victory over the Titans on Saturday night.
The Rams (2-0) scored 33 points in the preseason opener against the Colts but, after getting Tennessee (1-1) to bite on play action on Bradford's 83-yarder to a wide-open Brandon Gibson for a quick 7-0 lead, new offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels had no follow-up with the first stringers.
Josh Brown kicked a 42-yard field goal as time expired to give the Rams the victory.

Bart Eeckhout is specialized in the writings of the American modernist poet Wallace Stevens. He has published Wallace Stevens and the Limits of Reading and Writing (University of Missouri Press, 2002), edited Wallace Stevens across the Atlantic (with Edward Ragg; Palgrave Macmillan, 2008), Wallace Stevens, New York, and Modernism (with Lisa Goldfarb; Routledge, 2012), as well as several thematic issues of The Wallace Stevens Journal ("International Perspectives on Wallace Stevens"; "Wallace Stevens and British Literature"; "Stevens and the Everyday"; "Wallace Stevens and W.H. Auden"; "Helen Vendler's Stevens"). Since 2011 he has been Editor of The Wallace Stevens Journal, an election that occurred simultaneously with the journal's transition to the Johns Hopkins University Press, where it has joined Project MUSE. Eeckhout has coorganized several international conferences on Stevens (in Oxford, New York, Antwerp, and Paris) and is an Officer of the Wallace Stevens Society. Two volumes of Stevens translations into Dutch are forthcoming and he also supervises three doctoral dissertations on the poet, two in Antwerp (Lesley Janssen and Anna Jamieson) and one in Stockholm (Gül Bilge Han; diss. defended September 2015).
Eeckhout's other main research emphasis is interdisciplinary LGBT/queer studies. As an LGBT activist (see çavaria) he constantly seeks to stimulate collaboration between the worlds of activism and academia. Within academia he collaborates closely with colleagues in the history department (Henk de Smaele) and media studies (Alexander Dhoest). Individually or collectively, he supervises various doctoral dissertations in the field, with topics ranging from the underrated lesbian writer Rebecca Brown (Lies Xhonneux; diss. defended April 2013) to online LGBT self-representations in Poland and Turkey (Lukasz Szulc; diss. defended February 2015), a comparative study of the correlation between gender deviance and homonegativity in the Netherlands and Flanders (Tim Savenije), gender aspects in the theory of interior design (Inge Somers), and the role of music in the construction of LGBT subcultures and identities in Antwerp (Robbe Herreman and Marion Wasserbauer).
Eeckhout's third main research background is in interdisciplinary urban studies, including the correlation between literature and architecture. He is a member of the steering group of the Urban Studies Institute at the University of Antwerp. As a member of the Ghent Urban Studies Team (GUST) he has previously coedited two books in urban studies and published widely on urban topics in literary-critical, sociological, architectural, and cultural studies journals. His principal research focus in this regard has long been the city that never sleeps, New York, where he has studied (Columbia University), taught as a guest lecturer (Fordham University & the Gallatin School of NYU), and stayed as a research fellow (NYU).

Now I have a $40k truck with 4,400 miles on it that has over-spray all over it.
Chrysler customer care is aware of these issues and will be following up with Chapman directly. I would bet my choices are to take the truck back to Chapman and let their "skilled" workers "fix" it, or I could spend 8+ hours and clay-bar the truck myself. Based on the monumental screw-ups to date by Chapman, I don't think I'll be doing that; so I guess my next free weekend will be filled with clay-bar paint cleaning.
I have lost all faith in the quality of work from Chapman - if you are considering taking your vehicle there for service (warranty or otherwise), I would seriously suggest that you reconsider. Please learn from my frustrations and issues with Chapman; stay away!

Secret Weapons was a cute light episode. 47 and Colonel Plankton were amusing enough. Droids are an odd duck in Star Wars, some seem to pick up sentience which is acknowledged somewhat but they're still considered disposable tools in general. Maybe the personalities are seen as neural net quirks they acquire but the organics don't really believe they've aquired "life".

What will the impact of cookie decay be on digital marketers?
A few months ago I read an article in Ad Age written by Jag Duggal, vice president of product management at Quantcast. I agree with most of what Mr. Duggal covers. In fact, I wrote a column for ClickZ that supports his second claim that CTR is a poor optimization metric.
It is Mr. Duggal's first claim that caused me to pause:
"Cookies are far shorter lived than thought. The RTB industry structure -- separating data from optimization, and lower-purchase-funnel retargeting from upper-purchase-funnel prospecting -- assumes that cookies are reasonably long-lived. In reality, the half-life of an average third-party cookie is about three days, and one-third of all cookies last less than an hour. Buyers can err by either focusing on only a population subset with stable cookies or buying lists of cookies that likely won't be found again. Stale cookie lists degrade effectiveness and efficiency; real-time bidding requires real-time data."
At face value this statement is potentially disastrous to any cookie-buying campaign. I felt it necessary to dig deeper into the claim, sensing that the implications could make a huge impact on how the industry approaches audience-buying tactics and measurement.
My company took a sample of ~100 million RTB cookie IDs on Day 0 and then scanned a discrete day at seven-day intervals for four weeks. The further we got away from Day 0, the less likely we were to see the cookies again.
(Author Note: Please do not interpret this data as a true cookie decay rate. We measured discrete days. It is very likely that cookies in the 100 million at Day 0 may have appeared on days that we did not measure. Therefore this estimate is directional and we do not present it as an actual decay rate.)
We categorized the data into multiple segments to see if we could find any significant skews. It turns out that Brazilians and Chrome and Mac users tend to hold on to their cookies a bit longer, but not enough to justify a deeper investigation.
We also studied a variable we call surfing behavior. It is how many times we see groups of cookies within a given time frame. These numbers showed a significant skew.
Chart 2 shows that we saw 20 percent of the users only once, 61 percent were observed at a low frequency, and 19 percent were observed at a high frequency.
Chart 3 establishes that there is a significant difference in cookie decay rates when classified by surfing behavior. In this case, the 0,1 surfing behavior category decays at ~2x the rate of the high surfing behavior category.
This data suggests that there is a small subset of browsers that are classified into 0,1 to low frequency buckets that churn their cookies at a much higher rate than the average browser.
The observation is supported by the 2007 comScore study on cookie deletion. In the study, comScore concludes that 7 percent of the browsers are responsible for 35 percent of the cookies over a 30-day period.
This is an important point. The impact of a small subset of what comScore calls "Serial Cookie Deleters" could be very significant. Here is an example to help illustrate:
Assumptions in example for Chart 4:
Chart 4 demonstrates that even if a small percent of the total number of browsers remove their cookies in a systematic manner, the total number of cookies available can be much higher than the actual number of browsers.
If you think through this a bit more, after three days there are 500 dead cookies (600 cookies - 100 browsers). This is an example to illustrate that small subsets and high distribution can make a huge impact on actual counts. This example is not real data, but the comScore data is likely much closer to current reality.
The real potential reach of the Chart 4 example is 100 browsers. Eighty of them are stable throughout the example. Any cookie-based targeting and tracking model will naturally skew toward stable browsers, as the cookie IDs of unstable browsers are quickly removed from the tracking and targeting pool.
What Does This Mean for Digital Marketers?
If the majority of cookie decay is the result of a minority of browsers that remove their cookies frequently, then the majority of browsers have stable cookies even though a significant minority of cookies may have a limited life.
According to the comScore study, any upper-funnel targeting that is >30 days would effectively eliminate 7 percent of the browser target audience over a 30-day period. Mr. Duggal's statement concludes that upper-funnel segmentation models will be skewed toward the 93 percent of browsers that do not frequently remove their cookies. I feel this fulfills the promise of upper-funnel cookie targeting.
It also means that the current state of cookie-based attribution slightly under-represents the top of the funnel in favor of the lower funnel, but again, not enough to entirely throw away the practice. It needs to be understood by the media buyer that upper-funnel results are undervalued and lower-funnel results are overvalued.
The most tangible impact is on unique reach and frequency calculations. Real reach is vastly overstated, while real average frequency is widely understated.
An educated media buyer should understand these results and their implications on what they buy and how they measure. I think the information in Mr. Duggal's first statement is interesting and directionally correct but not significant enough to entirely abandon upper-funnel cookie targeting and attribution models.

Investigating the disappearance of a second Pegasus rocket, American astronaut Capt. Frank Chapman is forced to land his spaceship on Rehton, a mysterious asteroid. Upon opening his space suit he is reduced in size by the atmospheric conditions and captured by a race of tiny people, ruled by Sesom. Liara, Sesom's daughter, is attracted to Chapman, but he becomes attached to Zetha, a mute. After befriending the jealous Herron, Liara's admirer, Chapman wins the respect of the Rehtons. The astronaut helps the tiny kingdom defend itself when unexpectedly attacked by the Solarites, an ancient enemy. Zetha, rescued by Chapman when she is abducted by a Solarite, regains her speech in the excitement. Donning his space suit, Chapman regains his normal size and returns to earth, realizing that his experiences on Rehton will not be believed.

November 26, 2015
The busy Monday afternoon for southern Kentucky police in two cities started at the Williamsburg Cumberland Valley National Bank. Two men, both with guns drawn, entered the bank and police say they ordered everyone on the floor. They went behind the counter and stuffed a bag full of cash. But moments after leaving the bank, and getting into their getaway car, police say a dye pack exploded staining the money and the robbers' clothes. Witnesses saw them leaving in a white Toyota.
And then less than 20 minutes later, police in Corbin spotted a white Toyota outside an abandoned gas station. Inside, officers say they found the suspects and the red stained money. Three people were arrested and the money was recovered.
Police arrested Justin Coffey and John Worley, said to be in their early 20s and a third man, Tony Brooks.

Seeing as no one can really tell me exactly what the NWO really is, why are you so sure its a bad thing?
America was concieved and created by a handful of Rosicruicians and Masons, who all acuse of being the Illuminati and the NWO of the day... so why not let them run it? Who else is going to?

Frequent flier Porter Gale loves meeting people on planes. Recently, she found herself sitting next to a farmer.
AgriPOWER is a leadership and advocacy development program, which consists of multi-day institutes that cover public policy matters facing local communities, the state of Ohio, the nation and the world. Ohio Farm Bureau is now taking applications for Class VI. Here is what two past participants had to say about the program.
Ohio Department of Natural Resources Division of Wildlife recently proposed changes to deer hunting regulations. Ohio Farm Bureau submitted comments on the proposal with support for some of the changes and concerns with others. Ohio Farm Bureau members across the state have developed substantial policies on wildlife issues, which provided the basis for the organization's comments.
Farm Bureau-supported legislation that would strengthen private property rights was approved last week in the House of Representatives. The bill, the Private Property Rights Protection Act of 2013 (H.R. 1944), prohibits states that receive federal economic development funding from exercising eminent domain for private economic development. Ohio Farm Bureau was very involved with the initiative to reform eminent domain law in Ohio, to ensure the use of eminent domain for economic development purposes is strictly limited.
The following is a list of the provisions important to farm businesses and to related industries.
Ways and Means Chairman Dave Camp (R-Mich.) released a comprehensive tax reform proposal Feb. 26. The proposal lowers tax rates for individuals and businesses and broadens the tax base by eliminating over 220 tax credits, deductions and exclusions. It also would simplify and streamline the tax code.

dude's shorts constitute justifiable homicide.
I was thinking the same thing, then I noticed the Cookie Monster pajama pants on the dude behind him.
I'm pretty sure that's Simon Cowell.
Nice shorts, Trent.
It looks like someone tried to clone Katy Perry and missed the most important part.
"Honey I shrunk my pants"
Cookie Monster pants? A grown man actually put on cookie monster pants and left his house? Throw him in the port-a-potty right now!

Knoxville (WVLT) - Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law, but what about the things you write?
Letters, even e-mails, have long been used in courtrooms.
But as Volunteer TV's Stacy McCloud shows us, in this age of the internet, lawyers and judges are using what you write on your public blogs, webpages, and social networks, as evidence against you.
The slogan for MySpace.com reads, "MySpace - A Place For Friends", but what about a place for the court of law?
"When you post it on the internet it's there for everybody to see," Judge Richard Baumgartner has been on the bench for 15 years.
He's seen and used a lot of tactics, but social networking sites are new, but definitely fair game.
"The rules of evidence provide that a defendants statement can be used," says Judge Baumgartner.
Comments could get you in legal trouble for anything from defamation in a civil suite, to discrediting character during trial, even leverage for a judge during sentencing.
Judge Baumgartner has used MySpace only once, in the child abuse case of Philip Corey Reep.
Reep and his girlfriend were charged with aggravated child abuse.
During trial, Reep was found guilty of a lesser charge.
But comments on his MySpace page were used by prosecutors as an attempt to impeach Reep's credibility as a witness.
Other comments were used by Judge Baumgartner during sentencing, who says what Reep wrote after the verdict is what caught his attention.
"He got on MySpace and said, 'not guilty', found not guilty. Well of course he was found guilty, we was just guilty of a lesser offense," says Judge Baumgartner.
That, among several other comments left on Reep's page, left Judge Baumgartner to believe Reep took the crime and verdict as a joke. "Indicated to me he didn't realize the seriousness of his actions."
Using personal expressions on public sites as evidence may be a new practice in law, but judges say it's not going anywhere, except back to haunt the guilty.
"I think we'll see more of this," Judge Baumgartner says
With these sites you can make your pages private to view unless you are an invited friend.
However judges remind you, that "where there is a will there is a way", if the comments are seen and printed it could be used as evidence.
Phillip Corey Reep was sentenced to four years in jail. He is appealing his conviction.
While WVLT allows comments on articles, we ask that you respect the online community. Comments may be removed at any time for violations including:
Comments may be checked for inappropriate content or rule violation, but the station is under no legal obligation to monitor or remove comments. If you believe a comment violates the above rules, please use the Flagging Tool to alert a Moderator.
Flagging does not guarantee removal.

Tennesseans who purchased health insurance policies under Obamacare are discovering their doctors and health care providers often don't fall in their new networks. WSMV, Nashville's NBC affiliate, has the story (via the Free Beacon):
One local resident, Shawna Simpson, said her new plan under Blue Cross's Network E doesn't have a single family doctor in her county that accepts her insurance. Another resident, David Pearce, was interviewed last year about Obamacare by the station.
"He was excited about enrolling in the health exchange, but then he showed up for his doctor's appointment last week," says reporter Nancy Amons. "Turns out his doctor in Murfreesboro doesn't accept Blue Cross E Network, either."
"Obamacare is not working," says Simpson.

BOE to Pay More to Move PRA Home From London's Canary Wharf
The Bank of England will shift the planned Prudential Regulation Authority from London's Canary Wharf district to more expensive premises near the central bank's headquarters.
The Bank of England has signed contracts on 20 Moorgate in the City of London, the U.K. capital's main financial district, according to an e-mailed statement released today. The building will house the PRA, which will be a unit of the central bank responsible for banking supervision when it takes over from the Financial Services Authority next year.
The estimated extra cost of relocating to Moorgate rather than continuing to use the FSA's current offices is less than 1 million pounds ($1.6 million) a year over the next 15 years, the central bank said. The existing premises in Canary Wharf, London's second financial district, are about 3.5 miles (5.6 kilometers) east of the Bank of England's headquarters.
"Locating PRA staff close to the rest of the bank is highly desirable," the Bank of England said in the statement. "The bank's firm intention continues to be that prudential regulation will operate in the future at a lower real cost than it does now as part of the FSA."
The central bank, advised by Drivers Jonas Deloitte and Clifford Chance, signed contracts on the property until July 2027 from the current tenant and by agreement with the landlord, a private fund managed by Bonn, Germany-based IVG Immobilien AG, it said.
The building was originally constructed in 2001 and provides 150,000 square feet (13,936 square meters) of office and support space, the statement said.

I really want to add to my RE shares and want to consider buying some ENPH.
Questions are:
- how are the 190 inverters doing lately? My personal Solar PV installer said they have had numerous warranty replacements. 215s doing better. (I have two PowerOne Auroras - really nice).
- Would 190 warranty replacement put a big damper on possible future profitability of ENPH?
- Since SolarCity is ramping up, I really believe they will be using ENPH for a lot of projects. Since many homeowners now can "afford" solar via SolarCity leasing (and SunRun, etc.) ENPH may cash-in on such a proliference.
- Is the margin on doing a ramp-up with SolarCity good for ENPH?
- I suppose SolarCity is not exclusive with ENPH so they will use SMA, PWER and others.
- Does ENPH have any new products coming out for higher-power panels? 260W and much larger are available and you really don't want to use 215s as their clipping point is not allowing full power.
- Would ENPH honor sloppy work by mass installations by myriad SolarCity install teams?
- Now that PWER has 250 and 300W micro-inverters, how will that play out for ENPH?
I know that most of you may not know the answers but anything would help.

Pope John Paul II was very ill toward the end of his reign and the Church was left on almost autopilot, rudderless. As more details emerge, I suspect we'll find that the Holy Father wants to avoid this by having a transition of power now.
So do I.
My own take on the man is that his primary legacy will be as Joseph Ratzinger, theologian and scholar. And perhaps the humility he is showing by resigning. I admire him for that. But most everything else about his papacy and his role in the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, I would prefer never happened.

Sunday, Las Cruces' garrison flag will be raised and lowered at Veterans Memorial Park, 2651 Roadrunner Parkway. The flag will be raised at 8 a.m. and lowered at 5 p.m.
No formal ceremonies will be conducted, but interested residents are encouraged to help veterans raise and lower the flag. People who want to help just need to show up at the park, and veterans will advise them how they can participate.
For more information about the raising of the garrison flag, call James Turner, with the New Mexico Department of Veteran Services, 575-524-6220.
At White Sands Missile Range, a ceremony for the U.S. Army's 239th birthday and for Flag Day will be at 2:30 p.m. Thursday in front of WSMR's Headquarters Building.

Kyle Arsenalt from TwoDashStash Writes:
The Xbox Live Indie Games section of the Xbox Live marketplace hasn't had the best reputation, with many perceiving it to be a dumping ground of shovelware and inferior clones of popular games (see: Castleminer Z and The endless Flappy Bird Imitators). I, however, having dug deep into the depths of this apparent cesspool, have come across some truly exciting and innovative titles.
There were so many awesome games, ones that could go toe-to-toe against the established Indie classics on the PC that I couldn't fit them all on one list. Without Further Ado: Here are Ten Great Xbox Live Indie Games That You're Missing Out On!

Picture: Rebecca Romijn Disney's ABC Television Group summer press tour party - Arrivals Los Angeles, California - 08.08.09
Rebecca Romijn is relishing the break she gets from her twin babies on the set of her new TV show EASTWICK - because they took her "for granted" when she was a stay at home mum.
After nursing Dolly and Charlie for six months, Romijn swapped places with husband Jerry O'Connell so she could return to work on the new witch-themed drama.
And her relationship with her babies is better than ever.
The actress tells Starpulse.com, "I was with them right up until they were six months which is when we started shooting, and I felt like they kind of took me for granted a little bit, like Jerry'd walk in, they'd be like, 'Ahhh.' But then they never even noticed that it was me with them the whole time. I was a milk machine. I felt like that's all I was to them, just this walking milk machine.
"Now that I'm not there as many hours during the day, they're pretty clingy and I have to say I love it. It's the best feeling in the world."

I guess they really did need additional time to process my application. I even double checked my Amazon account and the card has been added as a default payment with a little nice surprise...a $30 gift card! Mahah! I am shocked by the credit line however---$1,500 wth. It's a bit off from my CL on my freedom card (3k). I am going to call and ask Chase to match my Chase Amazon and Chase Freedom. Would they have to HP my credit again? And should I do it before or after I activate my card?
Great. I requested in increase on a Chase card two days after and it was another hard pull. The representative (not an analyst) said it would not be since they just pulled in thirty days, but he was incorrect. There is never any harm in trying though.

Respond to Review of SUHU - Vegetarian Tiger
by kim2121
Review: I love love love this restaurant. It is a bit hard to find but they've put up signs around the building to lead you toward the entrance. Other reviewers are correct in pointing out the restaurant is close to Tsinghua, not Bei Da. In any event, this restaurant is worth the search! Every time I go I order the mock Peking Duck and some fake meat skewers with a curry sauce on them (sorry I don't know the name I just remember the photo). I also get the hand rolls stuffed with veggies. This past time we ordered the imitation sushi, which was fun to try but I probably won't order it again because there's just too many other delicious dishes I want to order! All my meat-eating friends love this place, and it's often packed with locals too. This is honestly one of my favorite restaurants in the world, and the most amazing thing is that the prices are very reasonable. Definitely go if you are in the neighborhood!

The Complete Pirelli Calendars: 1964-2007 ~ Edmondo Berselli, Francesco Negri Arnoldi
At last the public can see what the fuss was all about. The extraordinary history of the Pirelli calendars began in 1963 when the Pirelli tire company created a calendar featuring pin-up models as a promotional piece to send to its top customers as a gift for the closing year. It has continued to generate publicity for its exclusivity; a huge public clamors for the calendar, but it is only available to a very privileged list of corporate customers and VIPs.

Since the beginning of her career in Belgrade during the early 1970s, Marina Abramovic (b. 1946) has pioneered the use of performance as a visual art form. Her body has always been both her subject and her medium, and she has withstood pain, exhaustion, and danger in her ongoing quest for emotional and spiritual transformation. As a vital member of the generation of pioneering performance artists that includes Bruce Nauman, Vito Acconci, and Chris Burden, Abramovic created some of the most historic early performance pieces. Of these artists, she is the only one still making important durational works.Tags: art, books, performance, CHRIS BURDEN, art school, the body, Marina Abramovic, Bruce Nauman, vito acconciAdded 7 Years Ago from Amazon.com

" Authors: Helen Nicoll,Jan Pienkowski / Format: Paperback / Date of publication: 05 July 2012 / Genre: Picture Storybooks / Publisher: Penguin Books Ltd / Title: Meg and Mog / ISBN 13: 9780718194420 / ISBN 10: 0718194420 / Alternative EAN: 9780141380599 "
* Prices may differ from that shownMore Offers
I love Meg and Mog, many children's books I find a little dull when the child loves it. However Meg and Mog is interesting for child and adult I find.
Written by Helen Nicoll and Jan Pienkowski, the story follows a Witch Meg and her stripey black and white cat Mog.
Retails around £4.99
The story follows the midnight antics of Meg. She is getting ready for a spell party. You see her go through the routing of getting up, putting on her clothes, making breakfast and then flying off on her broomstick.
Meg meets her 4 friends on the way. Once on the hill they cast a spell and each witch puts something into the cauldron (a frog, bettle, worm, bat and spider). The chant the spell but something goes wrong! There is a big boom and Meg's friends are turned into mice and Mog chases them.
Meg says she will turn them back next year!
I think its a really clever story. As the story follows a witch getting ready to go out, comparisons can be made with a child getting ready to go out. I think the differences add interest and colour to the story, however the theme is suitably similar to a childs own experiences (i.e. getting dressed, having breakfast) that they can interact with it.
I think the way the story is written and displayed is really child friendly and provided lots of interest and interactiveness.
When Meg is getting dressed you see each stage and the words say what she has put on e.g. 'her big black shoes'.
My little boy loves to do a 'spot the difference' and see what has changed for each picture.
The story has lots of big pictures and speak bubbles. My favourite is the picture of Mog when Meg steps on his tail. There is a big 2 page picture of mog and a zigzag speak bubble with 'MEEEEOW' in it. We love to shout this bit!
The breakfast part is great as well, the page shows all the things she is putting in the cauldron- eggs, bread, milk, fish etc. We love to point to each one and say what it is.
The cauldron spell is lovely as you see all the ingredients going in the pot. There are pictures of the bat, frog etc. We love making the animal noises/actions to go with this bit.
I think the illustrations are simple and primary colours and blocks of bright colour are used. It makes it great for small children.
I have the book in hardback which has really stood the test of time.
I also love this book as it is quite small and great for in the car/travelling.
This is a great interactive story, but I would say it is definitely worth getting the tape/CD to go with the story as it adds lots to the experience!
Before christmas the book people were selling a gift set of all the meg and mog books and I couldn't resist buying them. Admittedly more for myself than my son! They were one of my favourite books when I was growing up.
Reading them again with my little boy has reminded me why I loved them so much. The illustrations are really bright and eye catching. He doesn't 'read' books he just keeps turning the pages but these have kept him staring at the pages. The colours are really striking. The font looks like handwriting and is really clear - perfect for when he's starting to read.
I love the subjects - going to the moon, veg, castles (although that castle one is a bit weird in my opinion having them pour boiling oil on people), all served with a bit of humour, and more importantly lots of spells.
There isn't much writing so there's lots of scope for talking about what you see on the page.
I think these books should be part of every childs library. Lets get them still reading them in 2110!!
Updated: my little boy is now learning to read and the clear writing is brilliant for sounding out the letters. The illustrations also inspire him to ad lib the story himself, although that might be an attempt to stay up a bit longer :-)
The Meg and Mog books were written and illustrated by Helen Nicoll and Jan Pienkowski and printed by Puffin books back in the early 1970s and I remember them from when I was young and how I really enjoyed the simple but entertaining stories and illustrations. These books seem to have a timeless appeal; they have been in print and popular with generations of kids since. My son has had several of these books since a toddler and still likes them now.
The stories are based around 3 characters who live together Meg the witch, Mog her cat and Owl who is unsurprisingly an owl. Each book is a small paperback and based around a different scenario the characters find themselves in: Meg's eggs where they find dinosaur eggs that hatch. Meg at sea where they find themselves stranded on a desert island. Meg Mog and Ogg where they find a prehistoric man and a mammoth and Meg's car where they cast a spell to make a car. These are the books we have but there are lots more in the series.
I think the subjects (at least in the books we have) are ones that young kids find engaging no matter what decade they have been brought up in, there is nothing in the story to really date them and I think this is part of there charm. The stories have a lot of slapstick humour to them which is again timeless, and they all have a happy ending which usually involves the characters going back home for tea.
The illustrations are simple, line drawings in bright primary colours but they are distinctive and have an appeal to them. I like the way the story is brought to life through the use of speech bubbles from the characters and sounds illustrated in big letters incorporated in the drawings rather like a comic would. This can catch you out when reading a story for the first time as sometimes it's quite difficult to know which bit should be read next with text going this way and that.
I find them very useful as a quick bedtime story when we are running late because they are so quick to read and my son has still had a book he enjoys.
The text is still printed just how I remember it, hand written in what I would call "primary school printing" with the letters large and well formed and printed in the style you are first taught to write in when starting school - this makes the book ideal for children who are learning to read because the letters are easily recognisable.

"Minneapolis - City of Water" Top 5 Page for this destination Minneapolis by emoja
Minneapolis Travel Guide: 948 reviews and 1,711 photos
The land from which the city of Minneapolis now rises originally belonged to the Dakota Indians, although the Ojibwe (Chippewa)were very close by. This land later passed through French, Spanish and English rule before finally becoming part of the United States in 1803 as part of the Louisiana Purchase.
Hennepin County, which contains Minneapolis, was named after Father Louis Hennepin, a Belgian Friar. He explored the area in the late 1600s and wrote a book about his experiences here when he returned to Europe.
The name Minneapolis derives from the Dakota Indian word for laughing waters = Minnehaha, and the Greek word for city = polis. Minne-apolis. The literal translation then is 'city of water.' It is the only city name in the entire U.S. that is a combination of Native American and Greek words.
The complete word Minnehaha is still in use - we have the Minnehaha Falls, and an avenue named Minnehaha.
Minneapolis sprouted off the banks of the Mississippi River. Our economy was originally based around flour and textile mills. Until the 1930s, Minneapolis led the world in flour production. Many of the old mills still remain along the river and have been converted to condominiums and a museum.
The first elite class in Minneapolis was, of course, the owners of the flour and textile mills. They branched out from downtown Minneapolis and began building mansions in the late 1800s in the area now known as Loring Park/ Loring Heights. The mansions on this page are all built in that era, and all by factory owners. I'm lucky enough to live in the same neighborhood as these beautiful homes.
Today, the Minneapolis metro area has the 15th largest economy in the country. We are lucky to have our hands in such diverse industries that if one fails, the others quickly pick up the slack.
Minneapolis is incredibly diverse as well - our largest immigrants were originally Scandinavian, but take a stroll down Nicollet Avenue today and you will pass Hmong, Somalian, Puerto Rican, Vietnamese, Chinese, Ugandan, Mexican, Haitian, Russian, Tanzanian and Native American, among many others.
Minneapolis is a truly beautiful city with a rich history and its own culture. Drop by when you get a chance (although it's always better to come in the summertime ;-).

Birthday greetings from Alaska! OK, I know you're a busy mom now, but are these nightclub tips still good? Passing thru in a month or so - going to Duluth to visit a friend.
Thanks. This was very helpful.
Like the restaurant tips. You spend time in Eat Street.
Currently visiting Mpls and your tips are very helpful! I already took the bus and yes it is great, I have no bad experiences at all. Thanks! Beee
This is great page. Very informative and excellent writing. I have been here once and loved this city, I've even thought about moving here. So much more for me to see.
You left the nasty bits out about the bus system: if you have to transfer, it's virtually always downtown, so getting from Golden Valley to St. Louis Park, for example, is agonizingly long and involved. Lousy system in my view.
I have been to Minneapolis many times, but I'm embarrased to say I never got much further than The Mall of America and the airport, which I realize is Bloomington. Welcome to VT. Pa

Dining out can be a great change of atmosphere, especially if you're used to eating your meals hastily in an unguarded meat locker. Have a seat with this Groupon.
Choose from Four Options
- $10 for $20 worth of American cuisine, valid Monday–Thursday
- $20 for $40 worth of American cuisine for four or more, valid Monday–Thursday
- $10 for $20 worth of American cuisine, valid Friday–Sunday
- $20 for $40 worth of American cuisine for four or more, valid Friday–Sunday
Options include the vegetarian wrap with housemade hummus, feta, and veggies ($10), the pepper burger topped with grilled green chili and red peppers ($10), and chipotle salmon with herbed couscous ($16). See the full menu.
Inventive combinations of locally sourced ingredients typify the fresh dishes that emerge from the kitchen at Zookini's. The cranberry burger brandishes ground beef mixed with dried cranberries and cream cheese, while the marinated margarita chicken rests on thick slices of ripe tomatoes. Pastas are all made in-house and serve as the foundation for the Zoo-preme carbonara and fettuccine alfredo. The eatery's eco-conscious, community-centered mentality carries over into the building itself, which is partially made from recycled materials, and the dining room walls bear the work of local artists.
78% of 122 customers recommend
