(Relationship Description)
I'm mostly into loving women who know to listen, and not get too upset at my Autism's stubbornness. The woman who gave me birth (One LuAnn Celia Mueller) is a manipulative woman who cared nothing for me in reality, she only wanted to use me for my money, and her drug issues. (She never let me have any of my SSI / SSDI money as such, and never let me really learn about money management, etc. Nor would she ever let me have a real job.) See this article I made on DeviantART for more information on that.

Sunday is Father's Day, but I won't be getting a gift from my wife this year. No, she's not being mean. It's my own fault. After all, I'm the one who told her not to get me anything for Father's Day … or Christmas.
It all started a few weeks before my birthday. I wanted to purchase a new toy … OK, a few new toys. The problem was that the total cost of these items was several times the amount I've been authorized to spend without adult supervision.
I knew if I simply asked Brenda, my adult supervisor, her answer would have been "Of course not!" or something similar.
I also knew I needed to educate her. I needed to explain that I didn't really want these items, but I needed them. I really needed them. It's not my fault; it's beyond my control.
Calmly I began to explain to Brenda all the perfectly logical reasons why I needed these items, would be silly not to buy these items and would be just plain crazy not to buy them now.
When she started to roll her eyes, I knew that somehow I wasn't convincing her of this real and genuine need that I had.
So I did what many men do when they're desperate to buy something that requires spousal approval. I proceeded to beg.
Hey, if the Temptations ain't too proud to beg, neither am I.
No, I did not drop to my knees and weep (fortunately for what's left of my dignity, I didn't have to go that far this time), nor did I whimper "Pleeeeeeeze!" while my bottom lip trembled.
Instead I took a different approach, one that's worked for me in the past and one I'm sure has worked for millions of other husbands before me.
"If you let me buy these items, they can be my birthday present," I said.
I could tell by the look on her face that she was comparing the cost of the toys I wanted to buy to what she usually spends on my birthday gift. The math was against me, and I had to act quickly.
"And my Father's Day present," I added.
"Gee, I don't know," she said, "That's a lot of money."
"And my Christmas present, too," I said, feeling my knees starting to bend.
"Hmm," she said.
"And next year's birthday, too!"
"Well …"
"And these are the last I'll ever buy!" I blurted out, my lip quivering.
"I guess it's OK," she said, with a slight smirk that told me I probably could have stopped at Christmas.
I purchased the items right before my birthday, so they did, indeed, make a wonderful gift. And since it's only a couple of months between my birthday and Father's Day, I'm still enjoying playing with my new toys.
No gift on Sunday? No problem.
But no gift at Christmas? A whole six months from now? And my next birthday, nearly a year away? What was I thinking?
Clearly I wasn't thinking … clearly. I let the woman get to me with her eye rolling and her "Gee, I don't know," and her "That's a lot of money."
But since I won't be eligible for another gift until Father's Day 2015, I have an entire year to watch game films and develop a better strategy for next time. Right now I'm favoring the quivering lip and the "Pleeeeeeeze!"
Yes, there will be a next time. For while Brenda believed me when I told her my new toys would count as my gift for my birthday, this Father's Day, Christmas and my next birthday, she also knows my blurting out, "And these are the last I'll ever buy!" was nothing but a lie told by a truly desperate man who might have actually believed it at the time.
Maybe that's why she was smirking.

WACO - The federal prosecutor who took a risky career step five months ago by warning Attorney General Janet Reno of a possible cover-up within her own department regarding the FBI's conduct during the 1993 Branch Davidian siege resigned Tuesday.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Johnston, whose willingness to re-examine evidence from the deadly standoff touched off a re-investigation of the government's actions, handed in his resignation to his boss, U.S. Attorney James Blagg in San Antonio.
Blagg's office confirmed the resignation but declined further comment, as did the Justice Department.
But Johnston, in a series of media interviews, acknowledged mounting frustration with Justice officials, whom he called "less than forthright."
"We cannot hide the ball, in criminal or civil cases, and feel good about it," Johnston told CBS' "60 Minutes II" in an interview scheduled to air Tuesday night. "It's not what the Justice Department is supposed to be about."
Johnston, the chief federal prosecutor in Waco, has been at odds with Justice officials since he paved the way last year for independent filmmakers to review evidence sifted from the charred ruins of the Davidians' compound. Filmmaker Michael McNulty's discovery of a spent pyrotechnic tear gas canister forced the FBI to recant its longstanding denials that potentially incendiary devices were fired on April 19, 1993.
The FBI's about-face has triggered investigations by Congress and a special counsel appointed by Reno.
Johnston's tension with his superiors was heightened last August when he wrote Reno that government lawyers had known for years about the use of pyrotechnic tear-gas canisters, which were fired hours before the Davidians' compound erupted in flames.
Ten days after he wrote the letter, which drew national media attention, Johnston was abruptly pulled from the case, as was Blagg's entire office.
Johnston's resignation was lamented Tuesday on Capitol Hill, where congressional committees are probing whether a government cover-up occurred in the Waco operation's aftermath. They also are investigating the military's role during the standoff and whether federal forces discharged their weapons April 19 - a contention strongly denied by federal officials.
"We're sorry that there doesn't seem to be a place for good, hard-working, honest public servants like Bill Johnston in this Justice Department," said Mark Corallo, a spokesman for House Government Reform Committee Chairman Dan Burton, R-Ind., who has been harshly critical of Reno and her Justice Department.
McNulty, the lead researcher for the newly issued film "Waco: A New Revelation," which accuses the government of pinning Davidians in their burning building with machine-gun fire, said Johnston's decision to resign was a courageous act.
"The man is an honorable man, and his biggest problem is he has a horrible disease that's called telling the truth," McNulty said Tuesday.
"His fate was sealed when he decided that there was more to the story than the government represented," added McNulty, who cajoled Johnston last spring into letting him examine evidence lockers under the Justice Department's control.

Pocketwizard vs Phottix odin, which is better?

Pocketwizard vs Phottix odin, which is better?
I currently have the phottix odin but was wondering if it is a good idea to upgrade to the pocketwizards? It just seems more universally accepted, and has better compatibility with things like lightmeter etc.
Actually, not to mention that the pocketwizard works with the new hotshoe while the odin needs an adapter.
Can anyone please share their experience with the PW? Is it fully supported with the A99? And does it have all the features that Phottix has? (ratios, TTL etc).
This question has not been answered yet.

It worked so well! I am amazed and happy! OH my gosh it is beautiful

Great climb. I was nervous on a few traverse moves a made, especially clipping the second bolt and moving past it. The anchors are in an awful stance as well. I had to clip a draw and have my belayer take so I could set the anchor up, because it was too far away from the easy stance and I am 5'11". Good luck sending it if you haven't already.

1. San Antonio
As the seventh largest city in the U.S. and with the biggest chunk of its population between 25 and 34, San Antonio is a perfect place to add to the rising cities list.
"Rackspace has a desire to make San Antonio an IT, tech-driven community and it matches up with the city's goals as well," Dominguez says. >>>Rackspace Not on 'Cloud 9' Anymore From establishing Geekdom, a collaboration space that is a point of concentration for tech and entrepreneurialism in San Antonio, and a major supporter behind TechStars Cloud, a San Antonio-based accelerator launched in January 2012 that funds companies focused on cloud computing and cloud infrastructure. "San Antonio has a lot to offer tech startups," says Jason Seats, managing director of TechStars Cloud. "The community is small, but concentrated and because of initiatives like Geekdom it's very easy for newcomers to get acclimated and meet everyone. Local investors are just getting the angel-investing bug and there is healthy support to see San Antonio-based companies succeed." Startups are also launching within the biotech and medical device industry, particularly with unique assets to the city like University of Texas' Health Science Center and several biotech incubators, such as T3DC, that all lend themselves to fostering small business creations, Dominguez says. Among its myriad of city-supported programs and initiatives, the San Antonio Economic Development Corporation (SAEDC) was created in 2010 by the city council to help spur the development of innovative companies and bring high-paying jobs to the city. It has the authority to make equity investments in companies, mainly within bioscience and health care. The investment funds are provided through grants approved by City Council to the SAEDC. "We're not necessarily venture capitals because we're not looking for risky ventures," Dominguez says. "We're looking for projects that [are focused] on economic development." Most recently though, the city announced plans to launch Café Commerce, a clearinghouse aimed at becoming a one-stop-shop incubator for small companies. Similar to Geekdom, which focuses on the tech industry, Café Commerce will give business owners access to resources, market data and other assistance needed to launch businesses as well as a physical location for collaboration. Mayor Julian Castro introduced the initiative in his State of the City speech last month. Alex Lopez, the assistant director of the city's small business office, says San Antonio was lacking an easy way to find all the resources available to entrepreneurs and small-business. The program's physical location will likely be in the city's Central Library. The city also plans to use US SourceLink and the Ice House Entrepreneurship Program, both developed with support from Kauffman Foundation, to centralize the business resource information. Another major component of the initiative is the creation of curriculum to learn more about entrepreneurism - not just the logistical aspects of starting a business, but to "develop that kind of thinking," especially among the city's youth, Lopez says.

Depth pays off for Blackhawks
Updated: June 14, 2013, 5:54 PM ETAssociated Press
CHICAGO -- Much as they would love to get big contributions from Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane, the Chicago Blackhawks have shown they can win even when their biggest stars aren't lighting up the scoreboard.
Depth pays off, and this is the reward.
The Blackhawks are now three wins from their second championship in four years after taking a 4-3 triple-overtime thriller from the Boston Bruins in Game 1.
It didn't matter that their biggest stars were largely quiet. They got enough ...

Friends of mine recently built a new home and when I went to visit I had to do a double take on the countertops. What I originally thought was solid surface ended up being a clever formica design. Rather than have a 90 degree angle on the edge, they had the counter contractor router a 45 on the edge and used a thin piece of edge band. They picked a mottled greyish color that resembled stone or marble. It looked fantastic. I'm all for formica in terms of affordability. With all the different patterns available, you can't go wrong.

The family became an object of fascination and idealization in the "bourgeois century."1 Like other nineteenth-century members of the bourgeoisie, Jews made family a central value and symbol. Far more than an ideology or a vehicle for acculturation, the family provided social sustenance as well as financial support, business resources, and connections.2 Like other Germans at the turn of the century, Jews worried that modernity, especially urbanization and an emphasis on the individual, would undermine the family.3 Anxieties about its demise notwithstanding, the Jewish middle-class family remained an essential vehicle for fulfilling bourgeois aspirations, especially in the realm of culture.
Family in and of itself did not lead to bourgeois respectability, however. Only a family that exhibited the traits of what Germans called Bildung— education and cultivation—would do. Bildung appealed to Jews because one did not have to be born into it. It could be acquired at the university, in cultured circles, and in a family of good breeding.4 Moreover, Bildung could be joined to Jewish ethnic and religious identities.
In Imperial Germany, Bildung made up an integral element of Jewish bourgeois self-perception. The growing business, educational, and professional attainments of Jewish men and the familial involvement of Jewish women furnished the material and cultural bases, respectively, of the Jewish middle classes. Women played a crucial role in the social and cultural embourgeoisement of German Jewry by crafting and maintaining a respectable

For little girls there is only one thing better than owning a doll
Not every little girl dreams of being a pretty, perfect princess. Given the choice between wearing a delicate barbie costume or a Ragamuffin Dolly Infant / Toddler Costume, your little girl will choose the ragamuffin costume any day of the week. What toddler doesn't relish the chance of living up to the ragamuffin's reputation of rolling around in the dirt, laughing her head off and generally being the party's dirty, cheeky grease ball? That is not to say she won't look cute and pretty dripping ice cream down the costume's blue blouse and heart-imprinted white apron. In fact, she'll look cute and pretty while having the time of her young life! When you are scrubbing out the stain the next day, stop for a second to remember that cheeky freckled smile she came home with. It will make it all worthwhile!

Orca Song by Graemestevenson ( Suggested by Ginryuzaki and Featured by ArtByCher )
Wow, this is great! Really fantastic painting. Also, congrats on the DD!
Reminds me so much of Christian Reese Lassen, but it's fantastically beautiful and unique in it's own right. Very impressive to do it tradtionally and not digitally. The sunlight through the water on their backs must've taken hours to paint.
Killer whaaaaalllllles!
Astounding piece of work!
Thanks for sharing...

Deserved nomination!Orcas are so very graceful.....Thank you for sharing
First thoughts were "holy crap this is amazing."
Ahhh! Orcas in the daily deviation! I don't see this every day. What a beautiful picture!
You should have this made into a puzzle!
I really love this. It's like seeing both over and under water at the same time. Huge congrats on the DD! I love seeing new techniques, new concepts I haven't seen before. So happy that your work has been showcased today.
this is gorgeous!!!! what medium did you use?
Love the concept!
Beautiful art and a well deserved DD! <3
how could this be a traditional painting? ..i-i dont even
really do not understand the concept..
Congrats on the DD
Impressive! Love the details. So nice.
this makes me think of Dali, was he your inspiration? Love it
Very Lovely~
Congratulations on the Daily Deviation!
Great paintings! Love the concept and its unique!
I love the way you use forms and shapes in this image, and of course the wonderful overlying of images. The orcas are beautifully painted. They remind me of the Alaskan Cruise my husband and I went on in 2012; one of our excursions off ship was on board a boat designed for getting good photographs, and we got lots of wonderful orca photos. Always spectacular watching that tall dorsal fin on the big male rising up out of the water. Congrats on the DD!
That is incredible. Excellent work
Gorgeous piece, wow. Congrats on the DD too!
This is so amazing! Great style! I love this composition! Really great!
Wow, beautiful. This is an amazing piece of work, especially impressed with your use of traditional media. Gorgeous.
I can't even begin to tell you how much I love this. Congratulations Graeme!
This is so wonderful, the colours, the composition, the colouring. I thought it was done digitally, but wow, it takes great skill to create something like this with traditional media. Love it.
Love the way you handle the colours and reflections. A beautiful piece
That reminds me of the works of Schim Schimmel (and I've always been a huge Schimmel fan). I love the colours.
give this man a fav
Interesting layout ._.
beautiful souls, and a beautiful painting
SO very magic and amazing !!!
My favorite animal!!! I love the lore surrounding killer whales!
I like how you put this
Whoa, this is some stellar piece! I have no idea why no one commented yet The colours are beautiful, awesome job on how everything gets reflected in the water (also how you can stil see a bit of the big bull through the surface) Of course also enormously creative to put in the underwater 'box' with the dorsal fin shapes below. Fantastic painting

Across the globe, changes in salinity over time generally match changes in precipitation: places where rainfall declines become saltier, while places where rainfall increases become fresher. Where did saltiness change over the past decade?
In October 2003, a little-known think tank in the Department of Defense quietly released a report warning that climate change could happen so suddenly it could pose a major threat to our country's national security. Why was the Pentagon worried about abrupt climate change? Because new evidence from Greenland showed it had happened before.
This activity covers the role that the oceans may play in climate change and how climate change may affect the oceans. It is lesson 8 in a nine-lesson module Visualizing and Understanding the Science of Climate Change.
In this activity, students examine the effects of hurricanes on sea surface temperature using NASA data. They examine authentic sea surface temperature data to explore how hurricanes extract heat energy from the ocean surface.
This hands-on activity explores the driving forces behind global thermohaline circulation.
This NASA animation depicts thermohaline circulation in the ocean and how it relates to salinity and water density. It illustrates the sinking of water in the cold, dense ocean near Iceland and Greenland. The surface of the ocean then fades away and the animation pulls back to show the global thermohaline circulation system.
This short video from NASA discusses the role that salinity plays in Earth's climate and ocean circulation, focusing on the observations of the Aquarius satellite.
This map shows the pattern of thermohaline circulation. This collection of currents is responsible for the large-scale exchange of water masses in the ocean, including providing oxygen to the deep ocean. The entire circulation pattern takes ~2000 years.
This video segment uses data-based visual NOAA representations to trace the path of surface ocean currents around the globe and explore their role in creating climate zones. Ocean surface currents have a major impact on regional climate around the world, bringing coastal fog to San Francisco and comfortable temperatures to the British Isles.
This Changing Planet video documents scientists' concerns regarding how melting Arctic sea ice will increase the amount of fresh water in the Beaufort Gyre, which could spill out into the Atlantic and cause major climate shifts in North America and Western Europe. The video includes interviews with scientists and a look at the basics of how scientists measure salinity in the ocean and how ocean circulation works in the Arctic.

The Fare: Flatbread sandwiches.
The Stop:>"/>
The Truck: Bigfood; Mobile locations can be found on their website; Permanent spot in the Seattle Armory Center.
The Fare: Flatbread sandwiches.
The Stop: Ever since opening in 2011, Tyler Rebman and Matthew Pontious have been representing the Seattle food truck scene with their flat bread sandwich creations and sasquatch-habitat-camoflauged truck. Caribbean and East Indian influenced, customers will find a smashing combination of sauces and braised meats served on Indian-styled naan bread or basmati rice. I would go as far as to say it is my favorite naan in Seattle.
These guys are such a big hit they were even invited by Microsoft to permanently set up shop in one of the company's Redmond campus buildings. They passed because you can't hold down Bigfoot for long. They like to roam, or so I thought.
Three weeks ago, Bigfood Mobile set up in the revamped Seattle Center Armory building. Don't worry. They are still trekking around Seattle and keeping their food truck business strong. But in addition, you can now catch 'em seven days a week in their new spot.
These long-time childhood friends, hailing from the food-loving city of Chicago, draw you in with their Midwestern straightforwardness and disarming sense of humor. They are genuinely nice guys and their talents complement one another. Rebman is a longtime chef and food stylist, while Pontious is an award-winning designer who has used his talents to build out their new digs.
The space is cleverly built, making you feel like you are at a friend's cabin in Mount Baker instead of a huge warehouse food court. When I comment on how great the space looks, Andre, hired by the owners to manage the day-to-day operations at the new location, excitedly tells me they are in the process of building out the bar counter space.
You will see the same concoctions you have grown to love from their truck such as my two favorites: the Yeti's red wine-braised beef w/curried fruit and the Sequoia, tender pulled chicken meat with tomato chutney and coriander cream.
There are some bonuses thrown into the mix:
Bonus #1: Their permanent digs will soon be offering a repertoire of barbecue delights such as succulent pulled pork.
Bonus #2: They now have a liquor license so now you have a place to set down your tired bones and get boozy.
Businesses around Seattle Center and Seattle Center employees are thrilled to have easy access to Bigfood and other local Seattle businesses which have set up shop like Skillet Counter and Pie.
Sadly, tourists seem to flock to what they know. In this case, it is the Subway two spots down from the Skillet counter that commands the longest lines.
So, the next time you are playing host to visiting family or friends, steer 'em over to Bigfood's sweet new pad. Deep down, it's what Subway's Jared would want.

Waking up crying
Comments (5)
my daughter wakes up crying a lot. she cries in her sleep a lot too...I think its nightmares : ( nothing my husband or I do will calm her down either...sometimes she just cries for a half hour after waking up...she will be 2 in october and this has been happening for a long time
DH 6/25/03~~~DS 9/17/09 DD 10/29/10 DD 6/8/12~Acupuncture helped me make my miracles~~~
DS has had nightmares (off an on) for awhile, but when he wakes up screaming inconsolably it seems to always be growing pains. It took us awhile to figure that out because he was so hysterical that he couldn't tell us what was going on at all. Now, when he wakes up screaming like that, I know to get a dose of ibuprofen into him as quickly as I can.

Growing pains can HURT. I don't know why he says someone bite him but kids don't often know the source of their growing pains. I would do as above poster said and see if he will take some ibuprofen when he wakes up like that.
Some kids have it where it hurts REALLY bad and some kids don't feel it at all.
Well aren't you just a fun filled little lollipop tripled dipped in psycho!

Summary:The inside story of one of history's greatest business scandals, in which top executives of America's 7th largest company walked away with over one billion dollars while investors and employees lost everything. Based on the best-selling book The Smartest Guys in the Room by Fortune reporters Bethany McLean and Peter Elkind and featuring insider accounts and incendiary corporate audio and videotapes, Gibney reveals the almost unimaginable personal excesses of the Enron hierarchy and the utter moral vacuum that posed as corporate philosophy.

Fantastic art work. The perspective is amazing and the pose of the character is excellent. Wonderful coloring. Well done!
I love the lighting - the change from warm colour to cool colour is beautiful. It's really not easy to do like that
Very nice!

Featured earlier this month at the Brattle Street Theatre near Harvard Square, The Tale of Princess Kaguya is a splendid new masterpiece from Studio Ghibli. The BPL has several copies on order so place your requests now to borrow a copy when they arrive. Princess Kaguya is a classic Japanese fairy tale about a magical girl who mysteriously appears in a bamboo stalk while an aged bamboo cutter is working in the forest. The tale tells a multifaceted story about family joy and longing, a girl coming of age, and the deeper spiritual mysteries of the human experience. The artwork is revolutionary for studio Ghibli. Set in a more rice paper/watercolor style, the animation, use of light and shadow, and extreme dynamic effects reminiscent of expressionism captivate the viewer throughout the film. The artists employ unique cell work with dappling shadow overlays as the characters interact and move through the bamboo groves and deeper woods. The overall palette of rice paper-style imagery completely immerses the viewer in an authentic Japanese artistic world. The dynamic effects during dream sequences and storm scenes are gripping, even in their minimalism. I strongly recommend this film for all anime fans. Even loyal Studio Ghibli fans will be impressed by this new direction in artistic style. The story is classic and refreshing at the same time. Beyond its imagery, Princess Kaguya is a bold venture into the depths of the human struggle.

Born of Illusion – A Review
Posted on December 18th, 2014 by Anna in Books, Reviews - Staff
Title/Author: Born of Illusion by Teri Brown
Read by: Anna at the Central Library Teen Room / Read for our TBOM book discussion group on December 19th.
Summary: Anna is a magician used to traveling with her mother who is a medium. Together they put on shows and seances to make money. It's mostly a con. But what her mother doesn't know is that Anna has real paranormal abilities and lately, she's been getting visions of a very terrible ending to their lives.
Series/Standalone: book one
Genre/sub-genre: Historical/Paranormal
Diversity: none that stood out
Could I Relate to These Characters: yes
Would I re-read?: yes
Personal thoughts: Once I started reading, I could not put this book down. I love the 1920's New York City setting and I love stories about magic. I think Teri Brown did a fantastic job bringing them both together. While this is the first in a series, it can be read as a standalone as well, yet, I'm looking forward to reading the second one just to see what might happen next.
Hell Hole – A Review

Tags: Burg, devils, fantasy, fiction, Gina Damico, hell, Hellhole, Lore, Max, murder, paranormal, stealing
Title/Author: Hell Hole by Gina Damico
Read by: Anna/Central Teen Room
Release Date: January 6, 2015
Summary: Max is a good kid. He would never even think about stealing something. But the cat pin is so distracting he can't help but walk away with it. The only problem is, his stealing brings a devil up from down below and Burg will never be happy unless Max steals him junk food and secures him a stolen mansion with a hot tub. What's a teenager to do? Especially when his Mom is sick in bed waiting for a heart transplant? Life couldn't get any more complicated.
Series/Standalone: standalone
Genre/sub-genre: Light Urban Fantasy/Paranormal/Humor
Diversity: none that stood out
Relatable characters: yes
Would I re-read?: No.
Personal thoughts: This book was very well written, and I would recommend it to those who like reading humorous, paranormal stories with a tiny bit of romance thrown in. While I really enjoyed her Croak trilogy, this one just wasn't for me. The humor didn't grab me the way it did in Croak, and I think that was what turned me off to it. However, if you're into crude humor about a devil who refuses to wear any pants and his reasons for not wearing pants, among other things, you'll definitely like this.
The Rogue Crew – A Review
Posted on October 6th, 2014 by Anna in Reviews - Staff
Tags: animals, Brian Jacques, fantasy, fiction, Mossflower, Redwall, The Rogue Crew, vermin, woodland creatures
The Rogue Crew by Brian Jacques Read by: Anna/Central Teen Room
This is the final story in the Redwall series. It chronicles a group of hares, shrews, sea otters and a few hedgehogs, as they race against time to reach Redwall Abby before the murderous vermin crew of the ship, Greenshroud. The ship and her wearat captain, Razzid, once thought to be defeated by fire, have returned, bigger and better than before. Now, the ship not only sails the seas, it has wheels that allow it to sail on land as well! Will the warrior hares from Salamandastron and the mighty sea otters of the High North Coast reach the Abby in time to save the good woodland creatures who live there? Or will more vermin along the way keep them from reaching their goal and their friends?
I started reading this series nineteen years ago. Yes. You read that correctly. Nineteen years. The first book in the series, Redwall, was originally published in 1987, though I didn't find it until a few years after that. The Rogue Crew (book #22) was first published in 2011. So you can see just how long this series has been going on. If it weren't for the death of the author, Brian Jacques (pronounced Jakes), this series would still be going on. This will always be one of my favorite series, and Brian Jacques will always be one of my favorite authors. Though he lived in Liverpool, England, I was lucky enough to get to meet him on three separate occasions and I can say he was an amazing person to listen to. His voice was as rich and deep as his stories. Did you know Redwall got started as a story for blind children? Jacques delivered milk to a blind school and wrote Redwall for them, making his style of writing as descriptive as possible so the children could see everything in their imaginations. A former teacher of his eventually showed Redwall to a publisher without telling Jacques, and as they say, the rest is history.
Because of his descriptive style, his work makes me feel like I'm in an adventure with all these different creatures who are kind, caring, tough, warrior-like, evil, mean, innocent, whatever words you can use to describe people, you can use to describe these creatures. I really do feel like I'm there, in the midst of a battle, or enjoying a huge feast on a beautiful summer evening. Though, one thing I adore about these books that tends to be a deal breaker for other readers, is the fact that each type of animal has its own way of speaking and Jacques uses that throughout all of the dialog. I see it as a fun time to learn how to speak like a mole or a hare. Others, find it distracting. If that is something that bothers you, this might not be the book for you. If it doesn't, I urge you to check it out. I can't recommend these books highly enough, and I'm very sad to have finally reached the end. A note about the order of the books: Each book is its own story with its own set of characters. If you're new to the series, you should start with either Redwall or Mossflower. Redwall was the first book published and Mossflower is the prequel. After that, you can read them in any order you like. I admit, they might get tiring after awhile if you attempt to read all 22 in a row, but take a long break and come back to them and you'll remember why you enjoyed them so much when you first picked them up. To me, these are timeless classics set in their own fantasy world. Thirty, fifty, even perhaps one hundred years from now, I imagine they'll still be readable and enjoyable by many and I hope they're never forgotten by readers of all ages.
Seraphina – A Review
Posted on September 29th, 2014 by Anna in Books, Reviews - Staff
Tags: dragons, fantasy, Rachel Hartman, Seraphina, shifters
Seraphina by Rachel Hartman
Read by: Anna/Central Teen Room
Dragon shifters abound in this tale of a young woman who is half dragon and passing as human. Someone is threatening the 40-year-old treaty keeping peace between the dragons and the humans. But who would do such a thing? And why? And how can they be stopped? Those are the questions Seraphina longs to answer as she goes about her days as the court's Music Mistress, working hard to put the program together for the Treaty Eve festival. However, memories her mother planted in her mind often get in the way and threaten to expose her for what she really is, something no one knows exists. With her life in danger, memories trying to swamp her mind, and visions getting out of hand, Seraphina is making friends in high places and hoping against all hope they don't notice anything amiss.
I'll admit, it took me a few chapters to really get into this book. But once I was in, I was in. I was really interested in the different characters Seraphina sees through her visions. I was especially drawn to Fruit Bat, a mute boy who seems to be the only one who responds to her attention, as if he is a real person who can interact with her. Yes, there is a romance in this book, yet it doesn't overwhelm the plot at all. In fact, it's so subtle, you might miss it, which makes for a nice breath of fresh air. It's a fantasy like no other. Rachel Hartman has taken the classic character of the dragon and made it as unique as a fingerprint. She did a great job making them new, different, and extremely interesting. I highly recommend this for anyone who likes fantasy.
The end of the book leaves it open for a sequel which is slated to be released sometime in 2015. And any who enjoyed this first book might enjoy the 17 page prequel, which can be found for free here. Or by the link on the Goodreads page here.

I think, Entry log should check the exitance of directories, before going to get the last Log entries. Because, listFiles will retunr null on non existant directories or any IO Errors. We have to add the check for directory existnace check and null checks in side getLastLogID api in EntryLogger.
We may need to handle in LedgerCacheImpl also.
Do we need to add them in bad disks list? and others will refer this list before they use the dirs.

Attached the patch, which addresses the issue in EntryLogger.
Thanks a lot, Sijie for the review!
Where are you seeing the error occurring? There's a check when Bookie is created already to ensure that the directories exist.
Yep, Ivan, I have seen it in checkEnvironment call. If directory does not exist then it is creating it.
Yes, In my testing environment it happened on the the startup of BK, unfortunately dirs have been cleaned(through some test scripts) . I am assuming that, after this step(checkEnvironment) only that might have happend. So, I directly verified that EntryLogger code and found that peice for NPE possibility. Do we need to throw the exception if we meet that situation, as we may not have Version files and all right? Now I can see this is very very rare case. Do we need to handle it?
I think this is a very exceptional scenario (where the directory is deleted, after checkEnvironment and while the bookie is running). We shouldn't allow the bookie to continue as normal if an admin is doing this. That said NPEs are ugly. It would be better if the entry logger checked for the existence of the directory, and if it doesn't exist, throw a FileNotFoundException.
true...Let me update the patch with this change in some time.
Attached the patch as discussed.

To The Editor: Well our commissioners did it again! On Feb. 9, they turned down Ingles' request for a store on N.C. 191 that would have created many jobs and new taxes. Never heard of a grocery store polluting the air. Yet they approved an asphalt plant in a residential area.
I invite any or all of these men to come and sit on my front porch when Tarheel Paving is running and smell the stench, listen to the noises and look at the monster huff and puff its pollution all over our area.
Wake up, people of Henderson County, come election let's get some people in office who look out for all the people of Henderson County, not just a few friends and buddies.

Last season was a frustrating year for Houston Texans wide receiver DeVier Posey. The former Ohio State Buckeye, taken in the third round of the 2012 draft, caught only six passes for 87 yards in his rookie season. Then to add insult to injury, or maybe the other way around, Posey suffered a ruptured Achilles in the team's final game against the New England Patriots in January.
Now on the road to recovery, Posey is likely to start the 2013 season on the PUP list. While by all accounts his rehab is going well, it will still be the middle of the year before Posey is expected to be able to contribute to the Texans offense.
But when he does come back, the time off could end up being a blessing in disguise for the young receiver. Posey has talent, that's why Houston used a third round pick to grab him just one year ago, and a year watching from the sidelines can give him the perspective he needs to be a successful professional player.
Sometimes a young player needs to remove himself from the playing field and see things from a coach's viewpoint before he can see the strategy in the game that those coaches are trying to teach him.
When he does get back to full strength this fall he will have plenty of opportunities to show what he can do. The Texans' number one receiver spot is all locked up with perennial pro bowler Andre Johnson, but the number two job is up for grabs. Houston drafted DeAndre Hopkins from Clemson this year to take a run at the spot, but if he hasn't cemented himself in the role by the time he comes back, the door will be wide open for Posey to grab it.
So far things haven't gone well in the NFL for Posey. He had a disappointing rookie year and suffered a setback with his Achilles injury. But if he can come back at full strength this year with a better understanding of the game, the opportunity will be there for him to force his way into the regular receiver rotation for the Texans.
