Nine Princes in Amber is the first of the 10 books that are The Chronicles of Amber; an epic fantasy series written by six-time Hugo Award winning and three-time Nebula Award winning author, Roger Zelazny.
The ten books that make up the series are told in two story arcs: The Corwin Cycle and the Merlin Cycle.
The Audible audio rendition of this classic sci-fi/fantasy series is kicked off by 2012 Audie Award nominee, Alessandro Juliani, who reads the first five books that make up the Corwin Cycle and whose narration vividly brings the world of Amber to life.
Amber is the one real world, of which all others including our own Earth are but Shadows. Amber burns in Corwin's blood. Exiled on Shadow Earth for centuries, the prince is about to return to Amber to make a mad and desperate rush upon the throne.
From Arden to the Pattern deep in Castle Amber which defines the very structure of Reality, Corwin must contend with the powers of his eight immortal brothers, all Princes of Amber. His savage path is blocked and guarded by eerie structures beyond imagining impossible realities forged by demonic assassins and staggering Forces that challenge the might of Corwin's superhuman fury.

"Not sure what the others reviewers see in this"
I was looking for a good series of books to listen to on car trips that are about 5-6 hours long and this series seemed perfect. Since it is a long series of books in a genre I love with pretty good reviews I picked up the first 2 books during one of Audible's promotions.
Now after having listened to the first book I regret owning the second. Unlike many of the positive reviews I read on this site I did not read the book long ago so my impression is not warped by nostalgia.
The characters have little depth, large events are rushed through, and the narration by Alessandro Juliani is mediocre at best. I found myself with no attachment to the main character Corwin and his other family members are equally uninteresting. Not enough information was ever given about Amber itself for me to care about who rules it so the story arc of Corwin trying to retake it held no suspense for me. Battles were rushed through with little detail and in the end I found myself just wanting the book to be over so I could spend my time listening to something better.
Alessandro Juliani wasn't horrible and he does do a variety of voices, but his narration as the main character Corwin is stiff and boring. It made it seem like Corwin cared as little about the outcome of the story as I did. I wouldn't shy away from other Juliani narrations though because I could tell that he has the talent to do a better job with different material.
So my advice would be to steer clear unless you have fond memories from having already read the book as those reviewers seem to be very satisfied with this offering.
"A great performance for a fantastic series."
I've been a fan of Roger Zelazny's Amber series since I discovered it decades ago, and was delighted to discover this new, unabridged adaptation of his masterwork. Alessandro Juliani does a great job as narrator, capturing Corwin's voice and personality well, and while some of his vocal choices for the rest of the family take a moment's getting used to, he manages to imbue each character with a distinctive voice and manner that draws you into the tale. Listening to the opening volume once more, I remember again why I was so drawn to this world, and can't wait to work my way through all ten books in the series. This one's definitely a must-have if you're an Amber fan, and if you're unfamiliar with the tales of the immortal city at the heart of all things, you're in for a treat.
I love reading and listening to books, especially fantasy, science fiction, children's, historical, and classics.
"I Loved Amber in High School, But Now. . ."
The first person narrator of Roger Zelazny's Nine Princes in Amber (1970) wakes up in a hospital without knowing who he is or how he came to be there. He does know that he's been being kept in a drugged sleep, so he feigns unconsciousness, takes out a thuggish orderly, threatens the doctor in charge, and, finally learning from him that his "sister" checked him into the hospital, heads off in a taxi for her home in NY. Thus begins his quest for identity and memory, which occupies the first half of the novel. By concealing his amnesia, acting as if he's considering his next move in some game of power, and examining every clue, he soon learns that his name is Corwin, that he is a prince of a place called Amber ("the key to everything"), and that his Machiavellian kin (eight brothers and at least four sisters) feel little kinship for each other: "I'd get what I needed and take what I wanted, and I'd remember those who helped me and step on the rest. For this, I knew, was the law by which our family lived." But how can he return to Amber, and what is the family game that stranded him memoryless on earth?
I remembering loving the first Amber cycle when I was in high school, painfully waiting for the fifth book to be published in 1978 so I could find out how Corwin's saga ends. Revisiting Nine Princes of Amber thirty-five years later, I still find good things in it. Zelazny's conception of Amber as the only real place, the one true substance from which all other cities and worlds, including earth, are "but a reflection of a shadow," is intriguing, as is his depiction of traveling through the Shadow worlds by mentally adding and subtracting features till you arrive at Amber. He tells a page-turning story. His strategy of having Corwin reveal early on that he's telling his tale as he is about to die somehow somewhere in the future is neat. There are some nice lines, like "As I sailed into Shadow, a white bird of my desire came and sat upon my right shoulder." And as he exploits the internecine machinations of a dysfunctional super-powered family, Zelazny explores the ways in which hatred shapes the world, partly through the filter of the Vietnam War: "I walked among Shadows, and found a race of furry creatures, dark and clawed and fanged, reasonably man-like, and about as intelligent as a freshman in the high school of your choice--sorry, kids, but what I mean is they were loyal, devoted, honest, and too easily screwed by bastards like me and my brother."
Alas, today I can also see many warts on the novel. For example, despite loving the soldiers fighting and dying for him, despite invoking the horror of napalm and mushroom clouds, despite having participated in appalling campaigns like Napoleon's march on Moscow, and despite having come to care for other lives during his centuries of exile on earth, Corwin (and Zelazny) really do treat the quarter of a million plus casualties of the Amber game as anonymous, "custom-made cannon fodder," when a truly caring prince might try first to mentally dominate his nemesis so as to avoid war via one of the nifty tarot-like cards that serve the royalty of Amber as combination telephones and teleporters. Corwin's "guilt" feels crocodilian.
Another: Despite Amber being the only real realm, Corwin's allusions to people, events, and works from our "Shadow earth" (like "I suddenly realized that I had known the mad, sad, bad Vincent Van Gogh") so outnumber those from Amber's history that Zelazny evokes our own world more than he develops Amber. This is especially so when Corwin uses American slang and sexism from 1970. He refers to a nurse as "a hippy broad," says that he can or can't "dig" certain things, decides to "play it cool," invites a friend to "make the scene," and so on. Zelazny is grounding his fantasy with an "authentic" language and manner, but it causes some cringes.
As for gender, early on Corwin devotes a paragraph each to describe his brothers and himself, but only a single paragraph for his sisters, and he often wonders what happened to his father but not to his mother. Only men are fit to rule Amber, and the royal sisters are basically concubines of the fittest. Corwin even gets to indulge in a Captain Kirk-like interlude with a suitably bare-breasted and green-nippled undersea queen.
Finally, Zelazny's depiction of Corwin as a macho, sensitive warrior-bard, expert at martial and liberal arts, fluent in hip slang and Shakespearean English, possessed of superhuman strength and regenerative powers (no wonder he can chain smoke without getting cancer!), starts feeling like a nerdy adolescent's ultimate cool guy power fantasy (no wonder I loved these books in high school!). With the possible exception of Random, Corwin's siblings appear flat next to him.
The reader Allesandro Juliani, excellent with Solaris, is good here, but his light and casual voice make Corwin seem less substantial and charismatic than he could be, and his attempts to vocally distinguish the other eight brothers from each other begin to sound strained. He also tends to make female voices too high and weak.
Later entries in the Amber cycle may correct my kvetches, but to find out I'll dust off my high school days' Avon paperbacks rather than pay Audible for each of the four remaining five-hour novels (when a single 25-hour omnibus audiobook would have been nice).
"great story well read but OVER PRICED"
will not be buying the rest of the series until it becomes better value for money
"great story, horrible narration"
I've read the stories years ago, and love them. But the narrator in this book is horrible. He is forcing accents on characters that don't have them, with little thought of how they match the characters. A high pitched nasal whine for Random, a British aristocrat for Ganelon, an inconsistent souther accent for Dara, and most bizarre of all a Texan accent for Benedict.
avid audiobook listener, sociopath, nerd.
"A very engaging story!"
I loved this story. It was snarky and action packed. I'll definitely be listening to the next book!
"Great stuff!"
Alessandro Juliani, who narrated the first half of the series, from Corwin's pov, did a really good job of capturing the tone and attitude of Zelazny's writing.
Wil Wheaton, narrating the books from the pov of Merlin, son of Corwin, pick that up and also does a great job. I never have trouble distinguishing which character is speaking at any given moment, he remembers inflections and accents that he gives bit parts and keeps them consistent.
Zelzany's writing is always an interesting mix of whimsical, edgy, and inventive. Sometimes the descriptions of landscapes go on and on, but by and large this is a very enjoyable and original series.
"Great Start"
In audio at last Alessandro Juliani reading is very good,let you known who talking thouthout the story!
Hear about this series many year ago just never got round to it first book is very good.
"A good rendition"
It had been a long time since I had read the book, and it was fun revisiting it through the eyes of someone else.
Corwin. He is the protagonist, and the story revolves around him.
"A favorite finally available on Audible"
This is probably my all time favorite fantasy series that I read in book form previously. Nine Princes is the perfect first book for the series. The narrator did a good job but would have like to had Wil Wheaton to all 10 books of Amber. The story shines through though. Loved it.
Zelazny crafted a very orginal take on the Fantasy genre and the dialogue is great
I loved the ending of the story and the promise it holds for more
Get this, it's definitely worth the credit

"Yungay" Yungay by El_Sueco
Yungay Travel Guide: 2 reviews and 11 photos
31, May 1970
Ranrahirca and Yungay
In May 1970, the 31th, there was an earthquake in Chimbote, at the coust.
The earthquake caused a part of the high mountain Huascarán to fall down, together with snow and ice it fell some thousands meter into the lake of Llanganuco.
This started an enormous landslide, a wave of stones, ice, snow, water and mud that first went up over a ridge and then went down over the towns of Yungay and Ranrahirca.
The velocity has been calculated to 11 km on 4 minutes. The towns were totally covered by 8-12 m soil.
Only a few persons survived, some being at the old cemetary. Many children were also saved as they were at the stadium watching the circus.
It is difficult to know the numbers of deaths caused by this natural disaster.
For the two villages Yungay and Ranrahirca I have in several sources read 70,000 deaths.
This distaster is still a big trauma for this region and for the country.
An estimation of all effects from the earthquake in Chimbote gives following numbers:
- 67,000 deaths
- 250,000 disappeared
- 180,000 injured
- 255 villages destroyed, some smaller, some greater.
(source: Gran Atlas Perú, 2002)
Of the palmes from Plaza de Armas just a few remains, and only one is alive (to the left in the middle of the photo).
A small memory monument is now constructed there (the foto above is taken before that was done).
- In a nutshell:An overwhelming feeling of life and the death

The Occupy Vancouver protest ranked 20th for turnout among similar events held Saturday across the nation, according to the New York Times.
Vancouver, with a showing of nearly 700 protesters, outdid more populous cities, including Sacramento and Philadelphia, the newspaper said.
"Obviously, Vancouver is a small town," said organizer Stephanie Rotondo of Vancouver. "To be 20th, that's just amazing."
Not surprisingly, New York City, where the movement began Sept. 17, boasted the largest turnout with 6,750.
The New York Times developed the ranking from a compilation of media reports about the protests in U.S. cities, according to its website.
Vancouver was one of 951 cities around the world that held Occupy events Saturday, according to United for Global Change, the main site for organizing the protests that day.
Vancouver organizers would like to maintain the momentum by holding future rallies, but there are not yet any concrete plans, Rotondo said.
They will hold another brainstorming meeting at 6 p.m. Tuesday at the bandstand of Esther Short Park, 301 W. Eighth St.
The group is seeking an indoor venue to hold weekly meetings.

2004 Chevrolet Tracker LT Rwd 4dr SUV (2.5L 6cyl 4A)
Have 28,000 miles on my '04 LT Tracker. I get 22 mpg city, and 24 mpg highway at 70 mph. The interior layout is very dated but functional. It's that 70's retro look. Front seating is a bit cramped and rear seating is really just for kids.
The V6 is responsive for passing, and gets OK gas mileage. Fold down split- rear seats are convenient. Vehicle is built very solid, and runs very quiet.
Interior design is just too dated. Front seat armrests are too short. A 5speed automatic transmission would help boost mileage. Larger gas tank would be great (17 gal tank is a bit small). Rear seat leg room is just non-existent.
To Small cargo area, rear seats do not
fold down all the way feels cramoed in
front seats, not really made for tall
good gas mileage

By HAROLD GWIN
The new president of Youngstown State University's Student Government Association said the organization hasn't given up on a plan to have students pay a new fee that would create a pool to fund student organization requests.
SGA will continue to pursue the $1-per-credit-hour fee per semester it had hoped the YSU Board of Trustees would approve for this fall, said Nicholas Meditz.
The fee won't be in place this year.
It would have had to be included in the 2010-11 budget adopted by the trustees in June, and it wasn't a part of that document.
Scott Schulick, trustee chairman, said SGA never came back to the board with its proposal, nor did the administration present it as part of the budget.
Nicholas Meditz, SGA's new president, said he was unaware that SGA was expected to go back to the trustees. It was his understanding that the issue had been presented and that it would automatically be considered by the trustees.
Meditz, a senior finance and economics major from Canfield, said he plans to discuss the issue with Zachary Brown, the former SGA president who spearheaded the fee proposal, before determining what steps to take to get it back on track.
The SGA voted 21-0 last November to ask the trustees to place the $1-per-credit-hour fee per semester on all students beginning this fall.
It would be capped at $12 per semester for undergraduate students and $9 for graduate students. It was projected to raise about $306,000 a year, based on current enrollment numbers.
As it stands now, SGA gets only $31,000 a year from the university to fund student organization requests.
That's not nearly enough to meet a demand that totals about $150,000 a year, according to the SGA.
Getting more money would allow the SGA to fund more requests and provide aid to individual students seeking help with academic issues such as conferences or research presentations, Brown had said.
Cynthia Anderson, YSU's new president and former vice president for student affairs, said she supports the fee concept but suggested it may have to be restructured.
A flat $1 fee charged to all students would count against the state-mandated 3.5 percent cap on student tuition, she said.
The trustees did approve a 3.5 percent tuition increase for this fall, and some board members had expressed reluctance to consider the SGA request if it would count against the cap.
Anderson said that issue can be resolved by charging different student levels different fees. For example, freshmen might be charged $1 per credit hour and upperclassmen different amounts. The state won't count that type of arrangement against the tuition cap, she said.
Student pay enough and then the General Fee...It is Out Outrageous! Some do not get to use the facilities...Students are taken advantage of Someone needs to rally.....YSU should give 10% from the fees already taken especially after they put a statue of the 1st president of YSU what a waste of money ...All the money spent and the new art building was built it flooded...ASAP
For higher education facility they make too many big and costly unwise choices ..Whoever on the YSU Board they need new board members as well....The new business building ...wonder if they had in mind about flooding ...YSU wastes money over the years...Example...Big hole for 4 years that was dug up and never finished..SOME YSU employee do their work half halfheartedly but still get paid the full amount and a raise... Some are not even courteous when you ask for assistance
There is someone with F.Heirro .
who manages a bank on the board...He allowed his wife Barbara to be dishonest it all comes out...
Starofesther--I wholeheartedly agree with you! Like any bureaucracy, YSU seems to make decisions based on the desires of the parties and their committees that are currently "in office." It seems that the actual education of the students is secondary. So much money is wasted on window dressing, like you mention in your post. Did you know that adjunct faculty--who are not permitted by law to form a union and can be fired if they complain about it--have not had a raise for at least 15 years, despite all the tuition hikes? It's a small thing, but I think is shows that actual student education is not a priority at YSU.
incurring another fee, just because student gov. can not live within their budget is wrong. I am sure there are other ways to increase their budget without putting it onto the majority of students that would never even use that money. Requesting to go from $31,000 to $306,000 is irresponsilbe on SGA part. It would seem that there is a hidden agenda on someones part on SGA. Get real.
Wachinovia - a hidden agenda on someone's part on SGA? Really? I had the honor of serving the student body as last year's SGA Executive Vice President, and I helped author the proposal that was presented to the board. I can assure that I would not put my name on something that I didn't wholeheartedly feel was in the best interests of the students. Read it for yourself. http://www.ysu.edu/sga/wp-content/upl...
We want to be able to fund as many student organizations as we can every year, but its impossible to help everyone who applies when our budget is only 1/5 of the average total of funds requested. For several years, our budget ran out sometime in mid-March or April, prohibiting us from helping out organizations with events towards the end of the year. For the 2009-2010 year, however, we able to stay within the budget (barely), but this only gave organizations requesting funds the bare minimum.
We wrote the proposal in full knowledge that it would more than likely have to be reworked, so maybe instead of $1 per credit, it would be maybe 50 cents a credit. Currently, there is no provision in our financial path that allows us to fund individual students who wish to represent YSU at academic-related conferences to present papers, attend lectures, etc, leaving them to seek funding from their deans and departments, which are also poorly funded. There have been several occasions where professors have paid out of pocket for their students to attend academic functions.
However, I'd still love to know what you think our hidden agenda was in drafting this proposal.
I don't know how you can be against this as a YSU student. I would venture to guess that the majority of people against it have never participated in any sort of college-sponsored activity to improve their standing when looking for a job. Traveling to points across the United States to compete in interscholastic competitions certainly helped me build a resume and find a job after graduation, and none of this would have been possible without the financial support of others like the SGA.
Oh Lo and behold here,..
Nicholas Meditz and Zachary Brown are panhandling parasites that wanted their own pot to plunder.
It appears that when it was questioned and asked to be recorded as method, manner and chain of custody.
Ole Zachary Brown didn't show in the light of day and now ole Nick Meditz, damn well wants to find a way to get his hands on that money.
Good ole Y.S. Shrew,..
Oh really?,..
How ironic you should " suddenly " appear to find time and interest to allege such an outlandish thing.
Where you develop a resume is in defining what " you've " done. Where the world full of us that's sensibly formulated, written and submitted them.
Don't generally add field trips as applicable experience unless you feel it pertinent for an employer to ponder did you drive or ride that bus, boat, plain, train or automobile you're embellishing?
Fact is if you were so astute in your academic studies and seized accolades to attest to it / them. The age old process of responding to and or contacting employers with verifiable scores, and acumen is the blueprint.
Where if you knew your stuff and you'd have followed that procedure you have landed a job on your own as all the rest of us has so historically done and continue to do.
Sure along with knowing your field studies, Alumni and frats can be helpful in opening doors in the job market.
But it comes down to you as an individual is the product and college is no self indulging excursion where somebody or anybody pays your way to Wally world.
What you're expecting is what one receives as a boyscout or gratuities at the Boys and Girls clubs.
When it comes down to college unless you come from a family of considerable disposable cash. It's an independence launch and we work either after, before or in between classes. As a self responsible discipline to get what we want, need and even where we aspire to go.
Had somebody proposed hiking up my tuition costs for something like that. I'd have split time with my studies and applied for the position. Just to get the predators off the perch,.. and added it as a " works well with others " personal quality on my resume.
Get a load of this " Spongebob ",..
I've had enough of what Y.S. Shrew proliferates down there at their grant guzzling Grotto. And I've read your ponzi scheme business plan to chisel into the ruins as well.
Which is to say I'm not impressed and no student is to be required to pay for what amounts to as souvenir ice cubes. That you proclaim needs to be placed before the feet of the abominable snowman. As a ritual of sacrificial skirting of the board of regents rights and records.
Although by the same token I'd expect nothing less than such a pyramid scheme. To be so cunningly hatched by a byproduct of such a depot for despots where you try to launch your craft of criminality.
Had that larceny by deception declaration been proposed to and or served upon a bank. Where to invoke FDIC protection rights. You'd get charged for attempted robbery with communicated means of delivery being submitted by note.
Now lets see if you'll think your " sudden " arrival trying to pitch that ponzi plan was such a good idea,..
Oh Nunya...for God's sake... speak in the King's English just ONCE...and have a point!!!
First off, I believe this is a great idea. What is 10 or 15 bucks to you? For each student it is nothing, but pooled together it adds up to a lot. Student organizations have a hard time because of this shortage, and if you have never been in one, you should be. Laugh at that making your resume, but in a world where more and more people are going to college that degree does not guarantee you a job. Its the extra things that make you look better than the guy standing next to you.
@Nunya, Zach and Nick don't need your money, they are both doing awesome and have not only EARNED scholarships to pay for their undergrad degrees, but I also expect them to have their graduate programs paid for as well. Why? Because they have the grades AND the extras that make them stand out. It sounds as if you have more of any imagination than any real knowledge.
@BamBam, Everyone learns at college, and everyone gets a degree, so what is going to make you stand out except for the extra things. That piece of paper does NOT guarantee you a job, especially in todays economy. So i'd suggest getting on that. And ten bucks is going to deprive you of learning? Sure.
@starosfether Everyone is aloud to use the facilities, if they don't, that is on them. And if you hate YSU so much then leave. No one is making you stay and we don't need that kind of attitude in our student body.
@Nunya Self Indulging? Students work hard when they go overseas, and work hard to get there, they represent YSU well. Its not all fun and games. And if you actually knew what half those words meant, I may take you seriously. But talking like that no one will. Come back to the 21st century.
All in all, The board and the President by all means have the students best interest at heart. If you don't believe so just look around at all that is offered to you. The center for Student Progress? The Recreation and Wellnss Center? The Math Assistance Center? The foreign Language Assistance Center? Any of the computer labs? It is there if you look, but so many of you are taking it for granted.
Lets explore some Costs of Running YSU, Shall we? Heat, air conditioning, electricity, proffessors salaries (and with a phd they more than deserve it) Secretaries salaries, Administration Salaries, Student Employees Salaries, Maitnance, Grounds Keeping, Any construction, Cleaning, Food Service, Police Force, carpeting, desks (that so many students destroy), office furniture, Computers and computer labs. I could go on and on.
It costs a lot to run a university, not every person in a position is trying to steal your money, so get over it. They have the best interest of the University and students in their minds and hearts. YSU has become my home, the organizations I have joined are where Ihave met some of my best friends and they have helped me make the best of college. If you go to class and straight home, you are sorely missing out.

noun (plural Wahhabis /-bēz/)
A member of a strictly orthodox Sunni Muslim sect founded by Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab (1703–92). It advocates a return to the early Islam of the Koran and Sunna, rejecting later innovations; the sect is still the predominant religious force in Saudi Arabia.

- This was a group that emerged in the 1950s from a group of Palestinians and Saudis being very close to Wahhabism, the main Islamic tradition of Saudi Arabia.

College football upset special: Can Ohio University upset Penn State?
The first new era in Penn State football in 46 years (or 62, depending on how you want to count it) starts Saturday in State College, Pa., which no longer sports Joe Paterno the coach, Joe Paterno the man or Joe Paterno the statue.
The Jerry Sandusky scandal has exacted its pound of flesh from a Nittany Lion program that faces oppressive sanctions the next four years.
Penn State veterans vow to play with effort and honor, and it's hard in one way not to pull for the Nittanys.
But sometimes will doesn't lead to way. Sometimes, weight wears on a team. The Nittanys have carried a heavy burden for many months.
Ohio is not a bad team. The Bobcats, coached by Nebraska-ex Frank Solich and quarterbacked by former Norman North standout Tyler Tettleton, are picked to win the Mid-American Conference. In some ways, this is Ohio's bowl game.
Let's go with the Bobcats in the upset.

Under State Law, the Board of Health, which in Prince George's County is the County Council, must meet at least semi-annually during May and October. In practice, it meets in that capacity far more often to consider various aspects of local Health Department policies and programs and a rather broad spectrum of related health issues.
State law permits the local Board of Health to adopt and enforce all rules and regulations concerning nuisances and causes of sickness within its jurisdiction, as long as these are not contrary to and are at least as stringent as existing laws, rules and regulations promulgated on the State level. The local Board may also establish all fees and charges in connection with local regulation.
The Rules of Procedure used by the Council sitting as the Board of Health are the same as those for the Council sitting as the County Council. Legislation concerning health policy and programs is also subject to the same legislative process as other pieces of legislation.

FrameMica Expands, Introduces New Products
Silberman, Vanessa, Art Business News
With an array of new products and a new product facility, FrameMica continues to grow
Since its inception in 1979, FrameMica of Bohemia, N.Y., has been an innovator in the art and framing field. The company has seen steady growth through new product introductions and by following a mission of "doing everything possible to help our customers succeed." The company, which currently manufactures more than 2,000 styles of moulding, has sold more than $1 billion worth of FrameMica moulding and has grown to occupy four facilities in New York. The company recently purchased 10 acres of land for a new 100,000 square-foot, state-of-the-art manufacturing facility. In January, FrameMica purchased and relocated a Canadian moulding mill that was a former supplier to its home on Long Island.
Friends From The Neighborhood
Gene Eichner and Gordon Van Vechten, co-chairmen of FrameMica, founded the company. Before they were partners, they were neighbors who found they had a mutual desire to go into business for themselves. Eichner was in sales, and Van Vechten was a professional draftsman. Eichner's late father-in-law, who had a wall decor business, encouraged them to open a frame shop because of its low start-up costs. So in 1969, with $4,000 in hand, they opened up a retail framing business.
Soon the business began to offer wholesale framing to the trade. For 10 years, the business grew. One day a big customer asked if Van Vechten would reframe, with more durable moulding, pieces of lacquer and aluminum-framed art that were damaged during transport. "At about the same time my wife had designed a piece of mica furniture for our home," said Eichner. "When Gordon and I saw it we realized that mica would be a terrific material for contemporary mouldings," After months of trial and error, FrameMica moulding was invented and FrameMica Company was born.
Today FrameMica boasts not only its "mica" mouldings but a variety of other mouldings as well. "We've grown dramatically because we've been able to offer much more than simply `mica' mouldings. Our largest sellers are now silvers, golds and woodtones. Our emphasis on design prompted us to forge an alliance with Carolyn Kinder, who is designing mouldings under the name The Kinder Collection for FrameMica. …

Veggie Burger
Refrigerated resting is key to these burgers' success. Air-chilling helps dry the burgers out slightly so they stick together in the skillet.
Crispy Potato Skins
Crispy, cheesy, bacon-y—they're an irresistible Super Bowl snack. So irresistible, in fact, that you may want to make a double batch.
Creamy Queso with Chorizo
In defense of Velveeta: It might be lowbrow, but its texture is supreme.
Caramel-Dipped Popovers with Chocolate Mousse
These savory popovers are made with cheddar cheese, which keeps the dessert from veering into overly sweet territory.
Horseradish-Cheddar Cheese Ball
This is part of BA's Best, a collection of our essential recipes.
Fig Toasties
We like to use Cabot Seriously Sharp Cheddar—another BA Seal winner—to make these party snacks.
Turkey Panino with Cranberry Sauce
Transform leftover turkey into the ultimate grilled cheese.
Portuguese Baked Eggs
Baked eggs are great for brunch, and this version is no exception. But with a salad of leafy greens, it's also hearty and satisfying enough to double as dinner.
Cheddar and Horseradish Spread
This spread is cheesy, tangy, and a little spicy. Serve with plenty of crackers.
Sausage and Broccoli Rabe Frittata
The frittata will be easier to remove from the skillet if it sits for a few minutes—the top will deflate and the edges will pull away from the pan.

Of course, you could make the joke that the Seattle Seahawks' blizzard snowed under the Denver Broncos in XLVIII, but the real white stuff didn't make its way to East Rutherford, N.J. until the early-morning hours of Monday, Feb. 3 — once nearly everyone cleared out of the stadium.
We can't say definitely which team this would have favored, of course, but it's hard to imagine that Peyton Manning and the Broncos would have done much better with a slower track out there. Perhaps they were spared further embarrassment anger.
The chances of a cold-weather, outdoor Super Bowl happening again elsewhere (and perhaps eventually back in New York/New Jersey) appear very high, even if commissioner Roger Goodell wouldn't say definitively the chances of that.
But for as nice as the weather was for Sunday's game, just know that creeping around the corner was a few inches of snow that could have changed the narrative.

This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

REVIEW: How To Seduce Your Stepmom; Winick Wins with "Tadpole"
by Ray Pride
[EDITOR'S NOTE: This review originally ran in January 2002 as part of
indieWIRE's Sundance 2002 coverage.]
"Small yet perfectly formed," goes the joke, which perfectly suits "Tadpole," Gary Winick's tightrope-taut DV romantic comedy, just snatched up by Miramax for $5 million.
"Tadpole" is a deft, daft surprise, an exquisite, lighter-than-air romantic comedy, tidy and moral and filled with laughs. Winick's sixth feature is an exemplar of what Sundance offers at its sweetest moments: fresh voices telling artful tales that obliquely examine the world around us made with modest means, which turn out to be megabucks Cinderella stories for the filmmakers.
From France and elsewhere, we've become all too familiar with stories of middle-aged men and their younger paramours, but "Tadpole," written by longtime Winick pal Niels Muller and novelist Heather McGowan ("Schooling"), wreaks a Boy-lita version of the stereotype, with a 40-ish woman pursued by a 15-year-old adept, who just happens to be her stepson. Start with 'in loco parentis,' add in a loco, precocious literary minded-teen, stir.
Sensitive, French-speaking, Voltaire-quoting Oscar (a debuting Aaron Stanford, brimming with charm) is a sweet-tempered Holden Caulfield sort who hasn't found out about phonies yet, but knows much about older women. "You are a 40-year-old trapped in a 15-year-old's body," a girl his own age splutters at him. He comes home from his private school for a long Thanksgiving weekend, sparring with history professor dad Stanley (John Ritter) while quickly revealing his fixation on statuesque stepmom Sigourney Weaver. Blithe Bebe Neuwirth plays Diane, Eve's best friend, and she's pricelessly dry and wet at once as she admires -- then beds-- this sweet young thing. At a café the next day, as a table of Diane's pals admire Oscar to the point of devouring him, he has a line to match Mariel Hemingway's response in "Manhattan" when a guest asks her what she "does." "I go to high school," says Hemingway: Could Oscar make time for another of Diane's friends? "I'm pretty busy with midterms and all."
Stanford is consistently brilliant in a role that could easily play smug or brittle, but he's got gravitas without weariness, portraying fixation without becoming overbearing. Plus, he's damn cute. (Woody Allen has cast him in the upcoming "Hollywood Ending" for his second film role.)
The film has a fresh yet familiar voice of quotidian New York sophistication to go alongside Woody Allen in the 1970s, Michael Almereyda's underground classic "Another Girl, Another Planet" or even whip-smart fiction writers like Deborah Eisenberg and Francine Prose. "Tadpole" explores and resolves its premise as compactly and completely as it can, and the comedy is filled with the lucid cultural reportage and repartee we expect from short stories. The unending stream of jokes are rooted in behavior, and the many notions about pure love and the power of passion unsullied by domesticity sink in painlessly. (Watch for the older man reading Kundera in the back of a shot: this movie has much on its clever little mind.) For a fourteen-day shoot, "Tadpole" is a surprising--and gratifying--treasure, as slight (and sly) as a wink, as weighty as unrequited infatuation.

The playoff-chasing Washington Nationals (67-65) kept pace with the NL wild-card leading Pirates and Reds by beating the Miami Marlins (49-82) 4-3 on Wednesday night.
Due to a hour-plus rain delay, both teams were forced to go to their bullpen early on. Nationals ace Stephen Strasburg (6-9, 2.96 ERA) only lasted 2.0 innings of no-hit baseball.
The opposing pitcher, Henderson Alvarez (2-3, 3.90 ERA) lasted 1.2 innings and gave up an RBI double to Nationals second baseman Stephen Lombardozzi on his last pitch.
Following the rain delay, Washington used five relievers to close out the game, with Drew Storen (4-2,5.47 ERA) garnering the win.
Mason Dunn (3-4, 3.04 ERA) took the loss for the Marlins.
Miami got solo home runs from Giancarlo Stanton and Jeff Mathis.
Jayson Werth contributed a solo shot for the Nationals.
Following an intentional walk to Werth, Ian Desmond knocked in the winning run with an RBI single in the seventh inning.
The win gives the series victory to the Nationals.
Washington will go for the series sweep on Thursday, 7:05 p.m. ET, with Gio Gonzalez (7-6, 3.72 ERA) facing off against Tom Koehler (3-8, 4.45 ERA).
With their next 17 games games against the likes of the Mets, Phillies and Marlins, the Nationals have a prime opportunity to close the seven game gap that stands bewteen them and the final NL wild-card spot.
Final: Nationals 4, Marlins 3.

San Francisco asks to join Prop. 8 case
Originally printed 7/30/2009 (Issue 1731 - Between The Lines News)
San Francisco's city attorney is seeking to join a federal lawsuit challenging California's same-sex marriage ban.
City Attorney Dennis Herrera on Thursday asked a judge to make San Francisco a party in the case, which was brought by the high-profile lawyers who squared off over the disputed 2000 presidential election.
Herrera says the city is uniquely positioned to provide testimony on some of the issues U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker has said he wants addressed at trial because of its longtime advocacy of gay rights.
Walker has scheduled an Aug. 19 hearing to consider the city's request and to set a timetable for moving the lawsuit forward.
The gay rights group that initiated the lawsuit did not have a comment on the city's petition.

The return of Mauro Rosales and Eddie Johnson means that Sounders FC will be able to field all of its first-team starters for the first time in more than a month.
TUKWILA — More than a month has passed since Sounders FC played at full strength.
That game? A 6-2 road victory on Aug. 25 against Chivas USA, a performance that matched franchise records in goals scored and margin of victory.
Since then? Seattle has gone 1-1-2 in MLS without being able to field all its regular starters.
Notable absences this month have been midfielder Mauro Rosales, who missed the past three games with a thigh injury, and forward Eddie Johnson, who sat out a game to rest a minor hip/groin injury and was suspended for last week's clash with San Jose due to yellow card accumulation.

Most Read Stories
The good news? Both are set to return for Saturday's 6 p.m. rivalry game in Vancouver, and it should be no surprise that coach Sigi Schmid is excited to have a full complement of weapons available.
"To be able to have Eddie Johnson up front with his speed presents a different dynamic, although Sammy (Ochoa) played very well," Schmid said. "To have Mauro's creativity on the flank takes a little bit of the burden off of (Christian) Tiffert, as well. So that just makes us overall a more well-rounded team, a more dangerous team."
This weekend could mark just the second time the Sounders start their four offensive centerpieces: Rosales, Tiffert, Fredy Montero — Seattle's three designated players — and Johnson, the team's leading scorer.
"They put together this team for a reason," said defender Marc Burch, "and there haven't been that many games where everyone's been out there that (Schmid) wants out there. Now we're starting to get there right before the playoffs. Hopefully our play will jell and we can take it into the playoffs and be in full stride when we get there."
The return of Rosales, whose 13 assists were the most in MLS at the time of his injury, will be especially welcome. The Sounders average 1.83 goals per game when he plays compared to 1.14 when he doesn't, according to the team website.
"I was almost ready for the last game, but we (waited) one more week to be 100-percent fit," Rosales said. "It's something that I needed — to be with the ball and playing with them and getting my timing again. It's great. I feel good."
• Schmid said new goalkeeper Marcus Hahnemann is still working on his fitness and will need some more time before he's a lineup consideration.
"For him right now, there are good days and bad days," Schmid said. "There are days where the body feels great and days where the body feels sore. He's right now in preseason, so you have to let him get three weeks under his belt, at least, and then you can start looking at things."
• The Sounders have scored four goals against Vancouver this season, two apiece from the team's star forwards Johnson and Montero.

Pizza Price Wars
No one wins a pizza war.
Having read a NY Times article about a pizza price war in NYC, I was curious about the supply side of the pizza business. So, this afternoon, I interviewed my local pizza counterman.
The pizza price war in midtown NYC involves 3 almost adjacent pizza places. Originally charging $1.50 a slice, one of the three dropped its price to an astonishingly low 75 cents and soon, a second shop did also.
One owner's reaction, "I'm thinking, God help me." Another was researching NYC pricing laws for pizza to see if 75 cents a slice was illegal. Still though, they said price could slide to 50 cents and less.
But here is the problem. Listening to my pizza man in NJ, I could see that climbing commodity prices affected him. Wheat for the flour, tomato for the sauce, 1500 pounds of mozzarella each week at $2 a pound, and a fuel surcharge for each delivery he receives. He estimated that the ingredients for a pie cost him $5 and that at best, 75 cents a slice was break even.
So why engage in a price war? Yes, there is minimal product differentiation, consumers are price sensitive and they exhibit little "brand" loyalty. However, a price war can be a negative sum game. In this war, no one wins.
The bottom line: Pizza shops compete in monopolistically competitive markets. While price competition is typical, they can engage in non-price competition by making their product unique.
My sources: Costs are from the counterman at Hickory Pizzeria in Chatham, NJ. Information about the NYC price war is from the NY Times. Discussion about the downside of price wars is from here and here and here.

The Historical Setting
FROM THE END OF THE LAST CENTURY, when the idea of Latin American economic cooperation emerged, to about 1960, when the idea began to be implemented, U.S. economic policy toward Latin America underwent remarkably few changes. The United States viewed Latin American countries as export economies dedicated to the sale of their natural resources overseas. The economic interest of the United States lay principally in promoting private investment and enterprise and serving the business interests of its citizens in the area. Even the great alterations in the economic environment and in Latin America's development needs during the 1930s did not change this posture. The United States continued to see the Latin American republics as simple agrarian countries and producers of raw materials for export even while Latin America turned toward industrialization.
Politically the United States has been guided by a sense of special responsibility toward Latin America. As the senior member of the inter-American system the United States has established a rule of dealing separately with each republic in pursuit of its interests. This bilateralism did not disappear even during periods of close hemispheric cooperation such as the First World War, the Good Neighbor era, and the early years of the Alliance for Progress. Cooperation among Latin American countries could never prosper within the bilateral framework.
