New York Times best-selling author Lynsay Sands, one of paranormal romance's original superstars, delivers a scorching and delightful story of a mortal man on a mission - and the Vamp who is his only hope.
One late night leads to...
Kidnapped! When Jeanne Louise Argeneau left work, she never thought she'd end up tied down by a good-looking mortal. More attracted than annoyed, she quickly realizes there is more to her abductor than meets the eye.
One desperate act leads to...
Love? Paul Jones has need of a vampire, and only Jeanne Louise will do. He just has to convince this beauty of a Vamp to help him, never imagining that he would fall in love. But with the immortal world's answer to law enforcement hunting them, their time together is running out... and Paul and Jeanne Louise will need to risk everything to spend an eternity together.

"Another highly recommended"
Yes, another great chapter in this series.
None, this story is unique enough for me.
Hearing & feeling the emotions out loud.
Yes, both i laughed out loud & got teary eye because i felt for the characters.
Paul is wonderful and his sacrifices touches you in the heart, please listen to this story, won't be a disappoint.
"Horrible - Don't Waste Your Money"
No one, or atleast they will wish they hadn't if they did purchase it.
Ms. Christensen did a horrific job narrating this book - she read without any kind of emotion at all. She read in spurts - one line, stop. One line, stop. Again, no emotion or flow at all. Her attempt trying to create other voices for the other characters was even worse. Why didn't Ms. McGee read this story?
Total disappointment! If the narrator wasn't bad enough, the plot for this story was even worse. Jeanne Louise (JL) gets kidnapped. JL doesn't even try to escape; in fact, she just goes a long with the whole thing. All for the chance the kidnapper is her life mate and for the life of the kidnapper's daughter? Okay, saving a little girl is a great thing, but does it take 9 hours and 45 minutes to do that? There is only so many times you can struggle with the - if I turn the girl, then I lose the chance at my life mate. JL repeats that over and over again until she figures out to change the kidnapper first, and then have him change the little girl. Again, doesn't take 9 hours and 45 minutes to come up with that. The story line dragged horribly; there was no adventure at all - no distress, other than trying to elude JL's family. Which by the way, the family should have found them much earlier then they did with all of their training, abilities and technological capabilities. They've found/caught other characters much quicker in other stories, but for some reason, just didn't seem capable this time? I hope Ms. Sands isn't just trying to pump out a book without really trying to develop the story first. Will there be ( or should I say, should there be) a next book in this series? It looks like Ms. Sands has run out of ideas based on the gripping story line this book had (lots of saracasim here). Don't get me wrong, I've truly enjoyed her other stories in this series. If her next story is as boring as this, I probably won't purchase anymore of her work. One more chance....mix it up! There needs to be adventure, intrigue, struggles, despair, hope, some comedic flubs along the way, hot interludes and a different narrator!
I love being swept away by a new romance and thankfully Audible's ever growing Library means I get to indulge myself over and over again
Brilliant, as you would expect for LS, this is perhaps not my favourite Argeneau romance story, but it was still a great listen. It mainly focused on Paul and Jeanne Louise's battle to turn both Paul's dying daughter and Paul before it's too late for them both. It was also good to hear what's been happening to the other characters from previous books.
The only downside is that now I have to wait AGES for the next one in the series.
Worth a credit? Absolutely - but, if you haven't listened to the rest of the series then do yourself a favor and start at book 1 then work upwards.
"Very entertaining"
The story was unique amongst the series, bringing in someone who knew about immortals but wasn't one. I enjoyed the narration very much. Miss Christensen had a lot of expression in both the story and the voices. I was a little confused how Carolyn ended up with an Italian accent when she was from Toronto:)
"Another great Argeneau novel"
I was over the moon when I saw this pop up on the audio list and even more so once I started listening to it. I have the entire series and often listen to my favourites again and again. I would recommend you start this series from the first Novel, although, having said that, I didn't. For some reason I listened to them out of order, and instead in the order of my interest. I soon discovered I love them all so I should have started from the first, this way you get to know the loveable characters and Argeneau family as you go.
So... if you like Romance with a dash of fantasy, if you enjoy a good laugh more often than not, if you appreciate a steamy love scene that gets you a little heated, if you crave a wee bit of drama and suspense... Gee I could keep going but why read this when you could be listening to this entertaining, addictive series?
Do yourself a favour and use your credit to purchase 'A Quick Bite' the first novel and before you know it you will be through the series listening to this last one on audio, hanging for the next.
hey :-) My name is Camilla
"Another good one from lynsay Sands"
I just finished this book, and it is another great book from Lynsay Sands.
It is definitely a good audiobook but if you didn't read the rest of the books in the series I would recommend that you start from the beginning.
"Mind numbing boredom"
Lack of decent plot, weak characters and dreadful narration
Most of the characters have dreadful British or wheezing, "I am at death's door" accents. The child sounds like a mouse high on crack. The narration does not brighten the mood or experience.
Half the book
This is the most disappointing and unsatisfying (and last) of all Lynsay Sand's novels I have read/heard. Her novels have progressively lost their zest. I keep buying them and hoping the original exhilaration will return but alas no, this one is the worst. The most interesting character is the dog. The intriguing, multifaceted characters of the previous novels appear as poor imitations, the main characters of this novel are dull and flat. The plot is unerring in its intention to drive the reader/listener to commit ritual suicide. The dreadful narration adds to the depression.
"Best yet!!!!"
I have read/listened to this whole series so far and have loved it!! But this one although it wasn't the story of any of the previous well known characters it is my favorite. I cried during this one. Heart wrenching. LOVED IT!!!!
"this was a so-so..."
I was looking forward to listening to this book and I wish I hadn't bothered. I have enjoyed other books in this series, however, this one is a miss for me.
Married, middle-age, owner of 3 dogs, 2 cats, and a messy house.
"Very well done"
So Uncle Lucius ha a heart, after all.
I've read a complaint or two about the narrator reading very slow or choppy. I felt that she was more just trying to enunciate clearly. I enjoyed listening to her. But we speak slowly in Tennessee. ;-)
It was pretty obvious how the story would end, but how the characters got there evolved slowly, and was a bit of a surprise. I loved it.
I have listened to many of the stories in this series several times, and I will enjoy listening to this one again, too.
"The Lady Is a Vamp: Argeneau Vampires, Book 17"
Jeanne Louise is in this book quite and unusal Argenaux. She is grabbed by a hunk of a man Paul, who is devoted to his daughter. Both Jeannie and Paul ride a roller coaster of emotions. Livy is Paul's terminally ill daughter. Whilst Paul wants Jeannie to turn Livy, and save her life, he falls head over heals for Jeannie and finds he wants to spend his life with her as well. They get there in the end, and Paul decides he wants to be Jeannies Life Mate, she will turn him, and Paul will turn Livy.... but noooo.... clumsey Bricker steps in and everything goes to rat poo in an instant. If the reader has followed Argeneax family and the individuals will find they are all there supporting Jeannie but to Pauls surprise supporting him, because Jeannie used her only turn and now faces seeing Paul remain mortal and her losing him. Just when you think that Jeannie is the unlucky one of the Argeneaux family, the plot takes a twist for the better. Nice read.
Again for people with dyslexia issues, Aubilble is a godsend.

USS Enterprise (alternate reality)
this wiki
(split 2233)
|USS Enterprise
|The Enterprise in 2259
|United Federation of Planets
|Active (2259)
The USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) was a 23rd century Federation Constitution-class starship operated by Starfleet. Launched in 2258, she was officially made the Federation flagship. (Star Trek)
Service history Edit
The Enterprise was under construction around 2255 at the Riverside Shipyard, in Iowa and launched into service from the San Francisco Fleet Yards, Earth. (Star Trek)
In 2258, the ship's planned maiden voyage, under the command of Christopher Pike, was brought forward after Earth received a distress call from Vulcan while the bulk of the fleet engaged in the Laurentian system. As a result, the Enterprise was crewed primarily by Starfleet Academy cadets.
The ship launched from Starbase 1 with seven other starships to respond to the call, including the USS Farragut, the USS Truman, and the USS Hood. However, its departure was delayed because helmsman Hikaru Sulu forgot to disengage the inertial damper which actually saved the ship after it arrived shortly after the rescue fleet had been destroyed by the Romulan mining ship Narada.
The Enterprise proved to be no match for the technologically-advanced missiles of the Narada. Fortunately, Nero recognized the Enterprise as the vessel that Spock served on. He chose not to destroy the Enterprise to let Spock see the destruction of Vulcan. Enterprise found that it was unable to contact Starfleet or to begin evacuating the inhabitants of Vulcan, as the Narada's drill platform, while in operation, prevented communications and transporter use. Despite the sabotage of the drill platform, Nero launched a container of red matter into the planet core, which created a singularity that caused Vulcan to implode, killing all but 10,000 Vulcans.
Following the destruction of Vulcan and the capture of Captain Pike, acting captain Spock intended to take the Enterprise to rendezvous with the rest of the fleet at the Laurentian system, but acting first officer James T. Kirk thought it better to attempt to stop Nero first. A fight ensues, and Spock then marooned Kirk for mutiny on Delta Vega, but Kirk managed to beam back on with the help of another Spock and Scotty. Spock was forced to resign his command to Kirk according to Regulation 619, and the Enterprise reversed course in an attempt to intercept the Narada before it could strike Earth.
Emerging from warp in the atmosphere of Titan, the Enterprise hid from the Narada's sensors using the magnetic distortion of Saturn's rings, while beaming Spock and Kirk aboard the Romulan ship before its drill could be ignited. However, the duo could not be rescued as the drill was ignited shortly after. Kirk then rescued Pike, while Spock confiscated the Jellyfish and used it to destroy the drill.
Spock then warped out of the system, with Nero pursuing. Spock set a collision course, and Nero launched his remaining missiles to defend the Narada. The Enterprise then warped in, firing phasers full spread, destroying the missiles, and allowing Spock to continue. Shortly before impact, Spock, Kirk, and Pike were beamed out by Scotty onto the Enterprise.
The impact ignited the red matter aboard the Jellyfish, creating a black hole which consumed the Narada and caused the ship to be stuck, when Kirk offered assistance. Nero refused, saying that "He would suffer the death of Romulus a thousand times," and that "he would rather die in agony than receive the Enterprise's assistance." Kirk acknowledged the refusal and the Enterprise brought all her phasers and photon torpedoes to bear on the Narada, firing on the ship and blasting it to pieces, causing the massive mining ship to collapse and be pulled into the black hole. The Enterprise was nearly pulled into the black hole as well, but the ship was saved when the ship's warp core was ejected and detonated, the resulting shock wave of which propelled the Enterprise to safety.
Following the successful mission of the Enterprise, Pike was promoted to admiral, and James Kirk was assigned to command the Enterprise as his relief. He subsequently chose Spock as his first officer. (Star Trek)
In 2259, the Enterprise was sent to survey Nibiru when the crew discovered a volcanic eruption would render the primitive Nibirans extinct. Kirk parked the Enterprise underwater, despite Scotty's protests, and this ultimately forced Kirk to expose the ship to the natives in order to transport Spock out of the volcano before the cold fusion device he placed detonated. After appearing to the natives, the Nibirans drew a sketch of the Enterprise in the ground and began to worship the ship as a deity, in violation of the Prime Directive. Returning to Earth, Kirk was demoted, but Pike convinced Admiral Alexander Marcus to let him appoint Kirk as his first officer.
That evening, the rogue agent John Harrison attacked Starfleet Headquarters to assassinate Marcus, but killed Pike instead. Marcus gave a vengeful Kirk permission to take the Enterprise to Qo'noS where Harrison had fled, and fire on his location with 72 advanced long-range torpedoes. Chief Engineer Scott protested the loading of the photon torpedoes aboard Enterprise without his chance to examine them, offering his resignation, which Kirk accepted. Chekov was appointed as Scotty's replacement.
Kirk found Harrison on Qo'noS and had him brought to the brig. Harrison was reticent about his motives, but suggested Kirk examined the torpedoes Marcus gave him, and also gave him a set of coordinates, which the captain sent to Scotty to investigate. Marcus's daughter Carol and McCoy opened up a torpedo and discovered it held a man in cryogenic stasis. Harrison revealed he was Khan Noonien Singh and the torpedoes held his fellow Augments, whom Marcus had threatened him into cooperation with. Marcus arrived in the USS Vengeance and demanded Kirk hand over Khan, but Kirk refused, intending to expose the conspiracy by bringing Khan to trial on Earth.
The Vengeance caught up with the Enterprise at warp and fired on it, halting it as it arrived just outside Earth. Marcus beamed up his daughter before preparing to wipe out all other witnesses to his plot, but Scotty, who had snuck aboard the Vengeance at the coordinates given by Khan, deactivated its weapons. Kirk and Khan donned thruster suits to commandeer the Vengeance, while Spock ordered McCoy to remove the cryotubes from the torpedoes.
Aboard the Vengeance, Khan killed Admiral Marcus and demanded Spock hand over the torpedoes in exchange for Kirk, Scotty and Carol and the safety of the Enterprise. Spock, knowing Khan would renege on letting the Enterprise survive, set the transported torpedoes to detonate in the Vengeance's cargo bay. The damage inflicted caused both ships to hurtle to Earth, but Kirk was able to repair the warp core before the Enterprise crashed.
Following nearly a year of repairs, the Enterprise was rechristened and refitted to become the first starship to embark on a five-year mission. (Star Trek Into Darkness)

Ice Cream Cake
* 2-1/2 gallons of ice cream-very slightly softened, just enough to work with it.
* 1/2 gallon each of your 2 favorite flavors – softened one at a time as needed.
about ¾ cup hot fudge topping . . . or butterscotch, or strawberry.
15.5 oz. package Oreo cookies (I only use 2 rows-28 cookies)
Line a 9" or 11" spring form pan with plastic wrap. I line the ring and then snap the bottom in. The plastic wrap will cover the sides and be under the bottom plate, so the plastic wrap will peel off and leave the bottom undisturbed when you unmold it.
Crush Oreos. Sprinkle enough crumbs in the bottom of the pan to just lightly cover it.
Scoop out one flavor of ice cream to cover cookie crumbs and press down to fill pan to the edges.
Sprinkle with cookie crumbs.
If ice cream is getting too soft, freeze for an hour. If not, go ahead add the fudge now.
Warm fudge topping and drizzle over crumbs. Freeze.
Spread second flavor of ice cream over fudge, pressing again to fill pan to the edges.
Sprinkle with more cookie crumbs if desired, cover and freeze overnight.
Loosen sides and remove plastic wrap, center cake on a pretty plate.
Decorate with whip cream, candies, whole cookies, or drizzle individual plates with chocolate or caramel sauce before serving.
Terri's Notes
~ Have FUN!
~ Mix and match flavors of ice cream and fillings for family favorite combinations.
~ Add nuts to the fudge layer.
~ Depending on size of pan, you may have to adjust ingredients.
~ No spring form pan? A large loaf pan or straight sided casserole dish lined with plastic wrap and cookie crumbs will work, you'll just have to flip it over on a plate to serve, but this creation is the same upside down as it is right side up!
~ Don't try to take off the sides of the pan before ice cream has completely firmed up.

The trucking industry eked out a 0.17% increase in transaction prices from July to August. That meager average price hike was because long-distance TL companies pushed their average prices up 0.4% from a month ago and up 2.5% from August 2009 levels. LTL prices also increased 0.09% from a month ago, but remained 0.19% below a year ago. A business cycle turnaround in pricing already clearly happened for TL carriers in the second quarter of 2009 when prices increased 3% from a year earlier. That's in sharp contrast to the 8.7% year-ago price cut that TL truckers reported in Q2 of 2008. Our latest forecast sees TL prices up 1.8% in 2010 and 2.3% in 2011. LTL tags are forecast to be up 0.5% in 2010 and 3% in 2011.
The average price for flying cargo and mail on scheduled U.S.-owned airline flights increased 0.1% from a month ago. That left prices up 11.4% from the recession-scarred low of August 2009. Taking back only a portion of the 16.8% one-month price hike that cargo planes reported in July, U.S.-owned cargo planes, meanwhile, cut their prices from a month ago by 7.1% in August. That left air cargo prices still 18.5% above year-ago levels. Because of the unexpectedly strong price ramp-up so far this year, our new annual inflation rate forecast for air cargo transportation prices (on scheduled flights) has been raised slightly to 8.8% in 2010 and lowered slightly to 2.8% in 2011.
Average prices for shipping on inland waters increased 2.8% in August on the heels of a 2.9% hike in July. Excluding inland waterways towing, which increased only 0.8% from July to August, then inland waterways prices actually registered a one-month 3.1% increase and same-month-year-ago price jump of 15.5% in August. So, even though August also saw a 2.2% decline in coastal and intercoastal freight transport, no change in deep sea prices of U.S.-owned companies, and a 0.7% hike in Great Lakes - St. Lawrence Seaway freight transportation, we've raised the aggregate water transportation price forecast to 8.4% in 2010 and 5.5% in 2011.
Less than stellar economic conditions have helped to put fresh pressure on rail operators. After rising for 14 straight months, overall rail rates edged down 0.67% in August. Rates for carload service led the path downward by slipping 0.62%, following two consecutive months of price hikes. Intermodal rail rates weren't far behind, down 0.58%, but that one followed June and July price declines. In aggregate, the rail industry pushed transaction prices up 4.6% from year-ago levels. Ever since hitting a deflationary low point in Q2 of 2009, rail prices have been growing on a fairly predictable trajectory. We now forecast a 5.1% annual price hike by the time 2010 closes and another 4.6% increase in 2011.

Finance Minister P. Chidambaram discusses growth targets, Congress attitudes to media and AAP., and Narendra Modis politics in this interview to P Vaidyanathan Iyer
Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi has said the BJP is marketing itself better. Do you think this government is lacking in communication?
I think it is a fair criticism that we have not communicated our achievements to the people. People expect communication from the top. But given the nature and the personality of our leaders at the top, they have been, if I may say, in an understated way, very media-shy.
Could the prime minister have come more often before the public or you as the finance minister appeared before the media more often to tell people about the governments policies?
I have appeared before the media more often than any other FM in recent times. On an average, I address the media or a public function once a week. The prime minister addressing the media is different from the finance minister or the home minister or the health minister addressing the media. When the PM addresses the media, he speaks for the whole government. The finance minister or any other minister is limited to his portfolio. Its only occasionally we can stray and speak about other portfolios of the government, but that is not usually done. If the governments overall stance and policies and approach have to be articulated and communicated, that can only be done by the head of the government. Let me give an example. [Barack] Obama appears on television at least twice or thrice a week. [David] Cameron appears before the media at least once a week.
India managed the global economic crisis of 2008 very well. It posted good growth numbers in the following two years. Subsequently though, it doesnt seem so. For example, over FDI in retail, Mamata [Banerjee] snubbed the UPA-II government and eventually pulled out.
I dont think you can compare the September 2008 crisis with the Trinamool Congress opposing FDI in retail. I think they are chalk and cheese. I cant speak of the period 2009 to July 2012 because I was not in the finance ministry. But since my return to the ministry, we have acknowledged the difficult situation in which the Indian economy is placed and we have fought our way out of that difficult situation. Can anyone deny that the economy, in the last 17 months, has been stabilised

The FCC has sent a trio of letters to Apple, AT&T, and Google seeking information about Apple's recent decision to block Google Voice apps from Apple's iPhone App Store. We're pleased that Chairman Genachowski's FCC is taking wireless competition seriously, and hope that it also looks into similar discriminatory treatment that has affected iPhone apps from others, such as Skype, Mozilla, and Sling Media.
As Blu-ray.com reports, the AACS licensing authority has released the "Final Adopter Agreement" it plans to enforce against consumer electronics companies that make BluRay players (and any other AACS devices that come along). Buried inside that 188 page document is a plan to eliminate analog video... forever. BluRay device makers will have to restrict analog outputs to low resolution first:
22.214.171.124 Analog Sunset – 2010. With the exception of Existing Models,
any Licensed Player manufactured after December 31, 2010 shall
limit analog video outputs for Decrypted AACS Content to SD
Interlace Modes [composite video, s-video, 480i component video and 576i video] only.
On the last day of 2013, analog outputs will be banned on BluRay players:
If you are a vidder, a movie trailer mashup creator, YouTube movie critic, or anyone else who needs to take clips from DVDs in order to make an original remix video, you might be interested in the hearings held last week before the U.S. Copyright Office, where EFF and the Organization for Transformative Works squared off against the MPAA and DVD-CCA.
The MPAA says that ripping from a DVD is always illegal under the DMCA, even if it's done for the purpose of fair use. Since the Copyright Office is empowered to grant three-year exemptions to the DMCA, EFF has proposed a DMCA exemption for noncommercial remix creators.
Over the holidays, video hosting site Veoh won another victory under the DMCA safe harbors, this time against Universal Music Group (UMG). The ruling should put to rest the argument that transcoding and other activities necessary for making content accessible on the web are not covered by the DMCA's Section 512(c) safe harbor for storing material on behalf of users (i.e., hosting user-generated content). This is good news not just for Veoh, but also for YouTube and every other site that hosts material uploaded by users.
Yesterday, EFF filed petitions (1, 2) with the Copyright Office seeking DMCA exemptions for three categories of activities that do not violate copyright laws, but that are still jeopardized by the DMCA's ban on bypassing technical protection measures used to control access to copyrighted works (i.e, DRM). The three exemptions are for:

I'm trying to see if (via the admin BUI) I can copy a message and/or folder from one account to another. For example, if I click on bill's account and view mail (as admin), then click on restored_bill's account and view mail, can I copy a message and/or folder from restored_bills's account to bill's?
I'm trying to see if it's possible to recover a single message or folder from a restored account without overwriting the existing account.
I can copy (shift-drag) a message to another folder within the same account, but I don't see a way to do so across an account boundry.
Thanks in advance!

EAST POINT, Ga. -- One person was killed and four others were hurt in a wreck along Interstate 285 during Friday evening's rush hour backed up traffic for miles near Camp Creek Parkway.
Officials said that at about 5 pm, a 2001 Mercedes being driven by Brittany Stevens, 23, of Atlanta, and headed northbound on I-285 near Camp Creek Parkway, struck a 2007 Kia Sportage, which was being driven by Maria Njoku, 52, also from Atlanta.
The Sportage then struck a gold 2002 Oldsmobile Alero, which was knocked into the path of tractor trailer also traveling northbound. The tractor trailer hit the Oldsmobile broadside.
According to the Georgia State Patrol, the male driver of the Oldsmobile was killed in the crash. His wife remained in surgery late Friday evening. Their identities were being withheld pending notification of family members.
Police said the GSP's Specialized Collision Reconstruction Team was conducting a follow-up investigation into the accident. Charges, they said, are pending completion of the investigation.

WASHINGTON (WUSA9) -- It's a controversy affecting how the government is mishandling Your Money.
The Social Security Administration has been overpaying massive sums of money to disability beneficiaries, and they have no one to blame but themselves.
Some disability recipients continue to get payments for months or even years after notifying the agency they're working again or earn too much to qualify.
The Government Accountability Office oversees the Social Security Administration. It says budget constraints and large backlogs of applications have delayed the reviews of income information that alert the agency to remove beneficiaries. As a result, a recent GAO audit found the administration made $1.3 billion in overpayments in just two years.

After wrecking the US economy and unable to fix it, as he promised, Obama decided to be an international President. Libya, Egypt, Syria have all be colossal failures and Syria is the end of that for the US. We simply do not want his bombing foreign policy. And he lies so much, Syria being the worst. He has planned the invasion of Syria for over a year, has been stockpiling hardware in the region for that, and Generals have even mentioned that planning. Sadly, Obama will not bring home the troops from Afghanistan and Iraq because he needs them in the region for his next war. Perhaps now that the country has said no more Islamic wars for us, no more aligning ourselves with the people who did 9/11. Now Obama can sit back and look at the destruction he has done to the US and the world and perhaps go become a plumber or bus dirver, someplace where he does not have the power to kill 250,000 people (the human rights estimate since the beginning of the Libyan war 35,000 there by US)

"I heard gunshots and then I saw three bodies lying in the middle of a street in the old quarters of the village. Where is President Obama to see what has befallen us?"

By Mary Milliken
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – To historian Brenda Stevenson, a scholar on American slavery, "12 Years a Slave" is a masterful cinematic work that achieves more than any other film on slavery, so worthy that she plans to screen it in classes at her university, UCLA.
It's the kind of validation "12 Years a Slave" has been earning from experts, critics, audiences and the film industry for six months now. Even so, the acclaimed drama may falter in the final test, losing out on the most coveted of movie prizes, the Academy Award for best picture.
The film from British director Steve McQueen appears to be the frontrunner for film's highest honor at Sunday's ceremony but has at least three factors conspiring against it: another high-quality, groundbreaking movie called "Gravity," the tricky math of Oscar voting and the film's own brutal depiction of American slavery.
EXTRA: Complete Oscar nominations | Oscar nominated songs | QUIZ: Do you know Oscar winners and losers?
"I think it is a hard film to watch," said Stevenson. "One of the things I think Steve McQueen does extremely well is capture the violence of the institution."
That unflinching portrayal of a real American story, that of the free black man Solomon Northup who is tricked and sold into slavery, may win on the gravitas scale. But sometimes the 6,000-plus voting members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences just want to reward enjoyable entertainment and "Gravity" gives that in spades.
If this year's nine best picture nominees add up to the strongest year for film in recent memory, they also have injected a good dose of uncertainty into Hollywood's biggest night. Voters had a good and varied lot from which to choose, with big successes such as "American Hustle" and "The Wolf of Wall Street," and smaller films "Nebraska" and "Philomena."

"In the 12-13 years that I have been doing this stuff seriously, I can't remember a best picture race in which there was less certainty than there is this year," said Scott Feinberg, awards analyst at The Hollywood Reporter.
Over at the other trade publication, Variety, awards editor Tim Gray said that "more than ever, I'm totally flummoxed."
"I think best picture is between '12 Years a Slave' and 'Gravity' but I wouldn't bet money on that," Gray said.
In a telling sign of the tight battle, the two films had an exact tie in one of the most reliable predictors of the Oscar best picture, the Producers Guild Award.

The heightened drama around the big prize could give viewers an extra reason to tune in to the live ABC telecast of the glamorous event, hosted this year by comedian Ellen DeGeneres.
The cliffhanger category also stands in contrast to more predictable outcomes in the top acting races. Cate Blanchett should win best actress for "Blue Jasmine," while Matthew McConaughey is favored for best actor for "Dallas Buyers Club" and co-star Jared Leto has a lock on best supporting actor.
The best supporting actress category could see favorite Lupita Nyong'o, the slave Patsey in "12 Years a Slave," upset by Jennifer Lawrence's loopy wife in 1970s caper "American Hustle."
For best animated film, the tale of Nordic princesses "Frozen" is expected to give the Disney Animation Studios its first Oscar in that category since it was added in 2002.
"American Hustle" and "Gravity" lead nominations with 10 nods a piece, followed by "12 Years a Slave" with nine. But if the best picture award were decided at the box office, "Gravity" from Warner Bros. and Mexican director Alfonso Guaron would be the winner.
The outer-space thriller starring Sandra Bullock, for which Cuaron pushed the technical and visual effects boundaries, has brought in $270 million in North America and $703 million worldwide. That's nearly as much as the $780 million earned collectively by the nine best picture nominees in the U.S. and Canada. For his feats, Cuaron is favored to win best director.
"12 Years a Slave," in comparison, has pulled in $49 million at the domestic box office, a respectable figure for a hard-to-watch picture that features bloody whippings, lynchings and evil slave masters.

Even the studio feared members of the Academy might skip it, compelling Fox Searchlight Pictures to goad them into seeing the film with ads during the Feb 12-25 voting period showing slaves embraced with the tagline "It's time." Some Oscar watchers said the ambiguous phrase could also be seen as shaming voters.
The voting system for best picture also complicates the fortunes of the slave drama. It is a so-called preferential ballot in which members rank their top films rather than vote for just one and the consensus can emerge from films that are many people's second or third choices.
But if history is a lesson, the Academy voters should go for the more serious subject matter.
EXTRA: 7 things to know before watching the Oscars
"They generally are not looking to just reward the most fun movie, they are looking to reward the movie that has something meaningful to say," said Feinberg.
"And if that is the case this year, the winner would clearly be '12 Years a Slave.'"
The Academy would also make its own history with that choice: "12 Years a Slave" would be the first best picture from a black director in 86 years of awards.
Oscar to go? If you're looking to find out the winners and losers at Sunday's Academy Awards, you can do so online. For the first time ever, the Academy will stream the Oscar ceremony live online.
The feed will go to select cable providers in eight U.S. cities. The telecast will also be available on Oscar.com and ABC.com — but you need a current cable or satellite subscription to check it out.
As far as the live stream, it will be available in eight cities where ABC owns the local station — and will only be available to those who subscribe to Comcast, Cablevision, Cox Communications, Charter Communications, Midcontinent Communications, Verizon FiOS, Google Fiber and AT&T U-verse.

I actually bought this for my daughter last xmas and never she used it and I ended up keeping the roaster because I have a small kitchen.My sister has one and roasted a turkey in last year and it turned out great! I figured I would roast the turkey then put the cut turkey, mash potatoes and gravy in the buffet sections. I hope if arrives before the feast! This way I will have more counter space!!!

Just Wonderful !
Feb. 16, 2012
I purchased this simple highly functional Buffet Kit as a companion piece for My 90th. Anniversary Edition 18 quart Nesco Roaster. After cooking I filled these generously proportioned buffet pans with the sliced turkey , stuffing and cranberry & orange yams. It kept the food consistently hot and perfectly moist at the perfect serving temperature . I would suggest purchasing a set of good quality (non stick safe ) serving spoons , a fork and a non stick ladle to protect the easy care non stick coating on the Buffet serving pans.
This is a nice way for Your guests to serve themselves as they please and will leave You lots of free time to enjoy Your guests as well !
Just wonderful and easy to use and enjoy when You're serving a Buffet Style dinner for Your guests !
I highly recommend this Buffet Kit !

Would these boots be good for sailing?
Yes. But that answer is tempered by the actual need for the boot. They will offer some grip and help avoid slipping, but only to a point. Being a neoprene boot they are not going to prevent slipping if you are going to need to brace your feet for leverage.
Gripper Round - BK16
3mm round toe boot
This covered split toe boot has a velcro arch strap and an elastic ankle strap
All seams are taped for added warmth
Superstretch neoprene on the upper ankle eliminating the need for a strap and assuring an easy entry and a snug fit

I've decided to ditch ZenCast in favour of Ziepod due to the recommendations made on page 2 by Raster et al. I'll check back in a while to describe my experience with Ziepod.

Zen FAQ
ZEn & Webcasts restarting from last point
I have a question for all you Webcast/zencast users
I download a regular weekly webcast from Twit.tv
"The Tech Guy" www.twit.tv/ttg it's a 2 hour long zen cast.
By the way I highly reccomend this webcast, actually the site has several very good webcast that are availble for free. anyway...
I actually save the file as an Mp3 and it shows up in my MUSIC playlist
The question I have is How can I pause the webcast turn off my player and resume from the point I left off?
I listen to the webcasts while driving, my commute is only 35 minutes so a typical pod cast will take me to and from work and back the next morning.
The only way i manage to be able to do this is by shutting the player off, is there another way to do this.
Should I save the file in my video section of th eplayer so yhe player will treat it differently?
28 Male Hermosa Beach, CA.
Will forever resist the Ipod Movement.
Creative loyalist Creative Muvo Sport c100 for Exercising recently purchased Creative ZEn 32GB in the market for reasonably priced Earphones.
Merged with main thread.
Resume playback should be working when you power off the player. Make sure you are running the latest firmware. With it, you should be able to either just power off or pause and power off, then power back on for the resume playback to begin. You can also use bookmarks to help as well. See this post.
~Light travels faster than sound, which is why some people appear to be bright until they speak~
Zen FAQ
So I've had some time now to evaluate my experience with Ziepod. First and foremost, before I explain any other problems I've had integrating Ziepod with my Zen, it should be said that the Ziepod programme works very well on its own - it runs smoothly and it makes managing podcasts a simple process. I recommend it.
I have set up my Ziepod programs to be sent to the Zen through Sync Manager (as Raster suggests.) I delete files from both the hard drive and Zen separately as I finish with them.
In terms of organisation of podcasts on the Zen, my experience has not been as straightforward as Raster suggests. Ziepod seems to have no problem organising some Podcasts in the manner I want through its manual "override" function on naming files, but strangely it does not always work. Anyway, I've been using the following format to organise my files:
- change the title to 'Title' of it's associated post. I'm not sure why I do this one but that's how I have it set up. (worked)
- change the artist to '-Podcast' (Didnt always work)
- change the album to the feed name, eg. for CNet's Buzz Out Loud podcast, I have the album set manually as 'Buzz Out Loud' (Didnt always work)
- change the genre to 'Podcast' (Worked)
The original problem of the Podcast dropping off at the last few minutes has been rectified. I now use Ziepod and therefore the "music player" function in the Zen rather than the "Zencast" function to play each podcast. The entire podcast will play. Halleiujah.
Where do I find web locations of specific podcasts?
I, too, have had to adapt to the Zen's non-podcast friendly filing system. Podcasts and music are both treated as "Music," and unless the podcaster has a consistent method of titling each podcast, each can get alphabetized under "Artist" or "Album" any number of ways. Since you can't drag-and-drop the files once they're on the Zen, you're left to sift through all of your songs to find each particular podcast, since, unfortunately, they don't all get classified in the "Podcast" Genre. I'd like to try Ziepod, but Ziepod asks for a website to retrieve each particular podcast. I like John C. Dvorak's "Tech 5" show, but that's on Mevio, and their site gives you access to the MP3 of each show, but its Mevio show site seems to be just a site to listen to it. Is there an easy way to find specific websites for each podcast? Is their something similar with every podcast address that tells me I'm using the right one? I don't mind complicated setups, as long as I only need to set it up once, but...is that possible through Ziepod, or will I instead need to directly download each individual podcast from its own indivdual web location, stuff all of the MP3s into a folder, and then transfer the folder through ZME?
Zencast not working properly with Zen player
I just purchased the Zen mp3 player (I still have the Zen V Plus but the battery on that is dying slowly).
I have a bizarre problem when I try to download podcasts onto my Zen using the Zencast organizer.
The last 30 seconds of the podcast won't play; the podcast automatically cuts off, and returns me to the Zencast menu of the player. I never had this problem before with my V Plus.
By the way, I downloaded the latest version of the firmware and also used the recovery tool on Creative's site. No change -the podcast plays until the last 30 seconds and then cuts off.
Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this problem? Thanks.
I had the exact same problem when I purchased a Zen 8G just this past November. After many emails back and forth with Creative tech support, they finally sent this:
"Next, regarding the Podcast I have escalated to the advanced support team and they have found the same behaviour towards the podcast.
In this case, they have advise to uncheck the Convert Audio items and pictures items into the Zencast Videos and it will tranfer to the Music Library.
Currently they are still looking into the matter."
But when you transfer it into the Music Library you get the problems mentioned in previous posts: there is no consistent way it is labeled and organized so you have to sift through all kinds of lists hoping to find the podcast you are looking for.
In an earlier post someone said the issue of podcasts getting cut off was resolved, but I don't know if that was referring to Zencast or Ziecast.
It made me return the Zen player. I mainly wanted it for podcasts and it was nearly unusable for that.
Or, copy and paste the files onto the Zen using Windows Explorer.
I haven't tried transfering files using the ZenCast organizer or any of the Creative software since a) it stinks and b) using multiple methods of transferring files seems to cause sync problems, but I've done all of the methods above and haven't had any issues playing podcasts.
Zencast Cutting short
HI, I am new to this forum, but I am having problem my zencast organizer when I use the zencast to put podcast on my Zen, for some weird reason it decide to convert it to avi, and it take up more space then need to be. Another weird reason it cut off and random time between the last 2 minutes it cut of .I try to listening to my podcast in original form and add it as music and it synchronizes fine. I was able to complete the podcast until the end but if I used the zencast conversion it just take the last minute or so any idea how to fix this.
Thanx in advance
1) In Ziepod, I change the genre to "Podcast" (on the ones that I download the rest are OK)
2) In Ziepod > preferences > download, I tick the "when an episode is downloaded export a copy to the following folder" I use "C:new podcasts"
3) Manually move (drag and drop) from "C:\new pdocasts" into the zen under the folder "podcasts". Then use Zen media explorer to set the podcast playlist. This is easy as there are only a few each week.
4) After listening to each podcast I delete it from the Zen.
5) Doing a sweep in Ziepod with the interval set at 7 days takes care of the PC end. There is an option to delete the file on the hard drive as part of the sweep.
Works for me!

Letters from our readers
"Mailbag" Continued...
Perfect opportunity
Joel Belz's idea ("Freedom from fear," July 18) makes sense. Why do we older Christians try every medical treatment available when we know the end can be delayed a relatively short time? Facing death realistically is a perfect opportunity to act upon and speak of our faith.
-Char Pulliam; Stevensville, Mont.
My father-in-law died four weeks ago. In 2006 he underwent a spiritual renewal after nearly dying from a heart attack. He realized that his new lease on life was a gift to be spent sharing his testimony. He handed out hundreds of business cards with two verses, his name, and the words "Let me tell you what the Lord has done for me." He longed for heaven, but he endured painful medical treatments that prolonged his life so he could share Christ faithfully. So, how much is a life worth?
-Eileen Arentz; Ventnor, N.J.
A hearty "amen" to Belz's column. As a 50-year-old male, having seen peers succumb in the last few years, what am I or any other believer holding onto here? Belz captures perfectly how the financial management of healthcare enforces an ethos of productivity that many find unsettling.
-Greg Lawrence; San Antonio, Texas
I was disturbed by "Freedom from fear." Each person, no matter his circumstances, is precious in His sight and should be treated as such.
-Sylvia Glenn; Fulton, Mo.
I know more than one person who chose to go home to the Lord before exhausting his family emotionally and financially when there was no hope for a cure. There is, of course, a difference between that and assisted suicide. Allowing our earthly temples to go back to the dust in God's good time allows us to die with dignity.
-Anne T. Phillips; Ashland, Ohio
Belz was right on target. Believers are caught up with the desire to live "forever" on this earth instead of seeing ourselves as passing guests and aliens in a foreign land.
-Roy Anderson; Prairie du Sac, Wis.
Why should the decision maker for your health be anyone but you? If someone has prepared financially and wants to spend his last dollar to live an extra day, that option should be open. Only when we are spending others' money do we have a responsibility to them. While I agree that these are important issues to discuss, I fear a slippery slope in which the young and healthy start to guilt the elderly into dying so they can have more things.
-Mark Plaster; Annapolis, Md.
Good old work
As a former industrial arts teacher, I was nodding as I read "Manual underdrive" (July 18). I would cringe every September when the guidance director announced the colleges our students were attending. I always asked, "What about those who have jobs in the trades?" Can you imagine the look I got?
-Jack Woods; Ronks, Pa.
I've used my college degrees to build a remodeling business over the last 20 years, and that involves communication and perspective as much as 2x4s and drywall. Although some homeowners have basic skills, many folk have no clue as to the simplest practical tasks. I recently found myself wondering with some distress where my daughters will find husbands who can actually do something. I don't want to be fixing their cars when I'm 80 years old.
-Alan Miller; Seattle, Wash.
As a third-year law student, I often wonder how anyone could trade working in fields or a shop for confined work in a cubicle.
-Paul Goppelt; Gonzales, La.
I have an M.S. in mathematics and I own and operate a repair shop. The increasing complexity of consumer machines, cars especially, is a very important point. Customers spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars to fix something like gradually dimming interior lights (that are draining the battery because of malfunctioning sensors), when they could have been designed to be simpler, a little less "cool."
-Hendrik Mills; Post Falls, Idaho
Light to darkness
Mindy Belz wonders how the press and our administration can cope with the Muslim teaching that lying is acceptable if the cause is just and you get the desired result ("Lie to me," July 18). Some in the press and the Democratic Party should know exactly how to handle such tactics because they practice the same behavior all the time. They are finally getting some of their own medicine.
-David Wright; Burlington, N.C.
At last the spotlight has been put on the "law" of taqiyya. Hopefully this will send those who are unaware of Islam's evil teachings in search of facts.
-Anne White; Gainesville, Ga.
Honor our heroes
I really enjoy WORLD, but I was disappointed that the item about Ed McMahon's passing (Human Race, July 18) did not mention his heroic war record. He flew in two wars as a Marine pilot and retired as a full colonel. We need to honor our heroes.
-Ed Kaup; Lindale, Texas
Touching transparency
Thank you to Amy Henry for her heart-touching insight and transparency in "Eleventh-hour faith" (July 18). I suspect that I too will spend the rest of my life learning to lean on and be satisfied with the Giver, rather than just His gifts.
-Joel Holt; Somerset, Ohio
Stay tuned-or not
The review of The Philanthropist ("Doing good," July 18) was fine; the show is not. It portrays a wealthy do-gooder bribing his way through the Hollywoodized developing world. He concludes his adventure by having sex with the village doctor. Perhaps in an upcoming episode he will return with condoms, HIV serum, and maybe some more Band-Aids.
-Dan DeGroat; Mineola, Texas
Megan Basham is mistaken about My Sister's Keeper ("A spare life," July 18). It had a solid story, solid acting, and a realistic ending. True, the movie presented no conclusion to the issues, but I believe that was the point. It presented all sides of the issue, then let the audience chew on them. My wife, my son, and I saw it twice and were discussing this movie for a couple of weeks afterward.
-Richard Edwards; Mount Vernon, Texas
I wanted to take gracious issue with Arsenio Orteza's aside that Michael "Jackson's revolution began with his 1982 album Thriller" ("The king is dead," July 18). The Jackson 5 were brought up in the throes of the '60s and churned out the hits until the revolution Michael helped start climaxed with Off the Wall in 1979 and then Thriller in 1982.
-Joe Little; New York, N.Y.
Speaks freely
I greatly appreciated "Be shrill" (July 4). I am a regular Rush Limbaugh listener and he is, as Andrée Seu described him, "one who speaks as a free man." He is not afraid to tell the truth even at the expense of being hated by the news media, Democrats, and fellow Republicans while remaining staunchly pro-life.
-Adena McCaghren; Paso Robles, Calif.
Welcome change
I deeply appreciate WORLD. I read it from cover to cover, and the editorials really make me think. What a welcome change from Newsweek, US News & World Report, and Time, which I gave up years before I began receiving your magazine.
-Joanna Kemper; Compton, Ill.
1,000 issues
WORLD magazine has informed, exhorted, instructed, entertained, and motivated us for over 20 years. Our three oldest children have established separate households and either subscribe to or have received gift subscriptions to WORLD. We hope this habit will continue with our four remaining children, and we pass our copy on to a young couple from our church as our pastor did for us 22 years ago.
-Paul & Ruth Robb; Gobles, Mich.
My wife and I think WORLD is an important part of our healthy "diet." We often "fight" over who gets to look first at the latest issue when it arrives in the mailbox. So enriched are we by WORLD that every year, as a very much appreciated Christmas gift, we give to our son and sons-in-law an annual subscription.
-Bruce Fiol; Charlotte, N.C.
WORLD has been a treasured treat for my wife and me since its first issue. Through the years, my children, brothers, parents, and numerous friends have become faithful readers as well.
-Anderson Funke; Abbeville, S.C.
We regularly read WORLD and exclaim: "Why didn't we see or read about that somewhere else?" After a moment's sad reflection, we remember why: Mainstream journalism increasingly supports Newspeak. Thank you and happy 1,000th issue.

As someone who has been involved in biblical and theological research and teaching for over 30 years, I look to WORLD to keep me up-to-date on Christianity and culture, and to provide me with articles and editorials on events and people that tend to be overlooked by other media.

Your series revealing the plans of Zondervan and the International Bible Society for a "gender-neutral" Bible translation was very helpful in alerting millions of Christians to the wolves within the gates. And through your gift subscription program, God used your good journalism from a biblical perspective to lead my sister and her son to Christ.

As we try to guide our four children through a world that looks very different from the world in which we grew up, we have been very grateful for WORLD. We rely on it as one source to help our kids understand popular opinion, classroom philosophies, and mainstream media that bombard them with a worldview apart from a sovereign God.
