Crock Pot Carne Guisada
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 6 hrs
We love carne guisada around our house. This is a really easy recipe! FYI: I always go to my local meat market and have them cut a good looking rump roast into stew meat. It saves me the time of having to cube the meat myself and that way i get to pick out the best cut of meat. Also, if you like spicy, leave the seeds in one or two of the jalapenos. **UPDATE- I have recently improved this recipe to a point that I almost removed some of the original parts from what I had posted. Instead, I am adding options for the meat and cooking method. Please let me know which method you used if you rate this.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 -3 lbs rump roast, cubed or 2 -3 lbs chuck roast, whole
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 3 fresh jalapenos, chopped, seeds and stems removed
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 2 cups beef stock
- 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste or 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- *METHOD 1: If using rump roast, simply place all ingredients into crock pot. Whisk corn starch in with a bit of beef stock before adding to the pot.
- Cook on low for 6-7 hours.
- For best results, stir all ingredients about 1-2 hours into cooking.
- *METHOD 2: If using chuck roast, brown both sides of the roast in a pot before putting it in the crock pot. My new favorite thing to do is to completely omit the crock pot. I brown the chuck roast in a dutch oven, then add remaining ingredients and cook it in a 300 degree oven for about 4 hours, or until the meat is so tender that it pulls apart easily with a fork.
- The tenderness of method 2 (with dutch oven) is absolutely mouth-watering!
- If using a chuck roast, don't forget to pick out all the pieces of fat before serving. You wouldn't want to bite into a piece of that!
- Try it whichever way you like, you won't be disappointed!

Made it this evening and everyone loved it. I used the slow cook method in the oven, but cubed the roast for a great fond base. The beef was incredibly tender and the sauce had a wonderful depth of flavor. I only had 1 jalapeno so I added a green pepper. The kids can't handle a lot of heat, so this worked out well for them! This is going to be a regular.
Followed this easy and delicious recipe and it turned out amazing ! I did swap out jalape
Tried this recipe today and my 5 yr old and 8 yr old loved it! Super easy to make and very tasty. The meat was so tender! I didn't have tomato paste on hand, so I put in a can of tomato sauce. Didn't have jalapenos either, so I thru in some roasted green chiles. Was still very good! Thanks for the recipe! As my 8 yr old stated: This one's a keeper!

Landestheater Salzburg: "Theatre" Salzburg Nightlife Tip by german_eagle
Salzburg Nightlife: 44 reviews and 23 photos
I had planned to attend a performance at this theatre, but in the end I was pretty exhausted that night when the (for me) interesting work was scheduled.
Their programme includes plays, musicals/operas and ballet/dance. They don't perform every night and the company is not *that* good as I heard. Not to mix up with the Festival weeks. Prices for tickets are quite reasonable.
Address: Schwarzstraße 22
Directions: New Town, across the street from Mozart's birthplace
Phone: 0662/871512222
Theme: Theater

OU's Brent Venables wins chess match with OSU's Dana Holgorsen
Defensive coordinator Brent Venables won the X's and O's chess match with Oklahoma State offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen.
Watching film of Oklahoma's 47-41 win, Venables installing the "50 Defense†the week of Bedlam kept the Cowboys' No. 1-ranked offense out of rhythm other than two long TD drives.
The "50†features three defensive linemen, a tackle and two defensive ends. Jeremy Beal and Tony Jefferson played outside linebacker near the line of scrimmage. Each has the option to play the run or drop into coverage. It also allows Venables to blitz middle linebacker Austin Box or keep him in coverage.
"Any time you're dropping eight in coverage you have to stuff the running game,†said linebacker Travis Lewis. "We pretty much made them one dimensional.â€
The Sooners held Doak Walker Award finalist Kendall Hunter to a season-low 55 rushing yards, held the Cowboys to a season-low 19 first downs and 379 yards, OSU's second-lowest total all season.
Four consecutive defensive series after OSU tied the game 24-24 prevented the Cowboys from taking the lead, forcing them play catch-up the entire fourth quarter.
After OSU scored on its opening drive of the second half, on the Cowboys' next four possessions they punted three times, including two three-and-outs. The fourth series made it a two-possession game when Ronnell Lewis tipped Brandon Weeden's pass that Box intercepted.
How difficult was it to install a new-look defense in one week?
"It's different than how we do our long yardage, but it's something we did a lot in the summer,†said OU coach Bob Stoops. "It's something we've been tinkering with. Because of that it's something our players had a familiarity with. They picked it up quickly.â€
Mixing in occasional blitzes, the Sooners didn't record a sack but got some pressure. With eight players often in coverage, Weeden didn't have a lot of open receivers.
"The way we covered it made him think more and squeeze it a little more and not be quite as decisive where he was going with it,†Stoops said.
Other observations:
Tight end James Hanna had several pivotal catches, the biggest being a game-clinching 76-yard touchdown reception. But Hanna made another key play when he recovered a fumble on a kickoff after OSU pulled to within 14-10 in the second quarter. The Sooners scored on the drive to push their lead to 21-10. ... DeMarco Murray ran hard, fighting for extra yards to move the chains. ... Freshman running back Roy Finch has speed and quickness but also delivers some powerful blocks. ... The offensive line produced several key blocks on third-and-short situations. ... Jarvis Jones started at left tackle. Donald Stephenson was in the rotation but Jones played more snaps than Stephenson for the first time this season. ... Trey Millard dropped another pass but the freshman fullback's blocking has been superb all season.
Austin Box's diving interception was one of the game's biggest plays. Box has solidified the middle linebacker position after replacing Tom Wort. ... Jeremy Beal took advantage of a matchup change when OSU moved Levy Adcock to left tackle after Nick Martinez left with an injury. ... Ronnell Lewis was disruptive, establishing he's the leading candidate to fill Beal's spot next season. ... Safety Javon Harris was flagged for a late-hit penalty on a kickoff but played well (eight tackles) after replacing Jonathan Nelson (concussion). Harris' biggest play was an open-field tackle to force a punt with the game tied 24-24. ... Cornerback Demontre Hurst had his best tackling game, preventing yards after the catch. ... The first of Quinton Carter's of two interceptions set up a 30-yard TD drive that pushed the lead to 14-3.

Turn Sublime Text into a Task Manager with the PlainTasks Plugin
Productivity Sauce
While Sublime Text is a powerful text editing tool, you can put it to other practical uses through third-party plugins. Take, for example, the PlainTasks plugin. It turns Sublime Text into a simple yet flexible task manager. The plugin uses a plain text file for storing tasks, so you can easily synchronize it across multiple machines and open it in any other text editor.
The easiest way to deploy PlainTasks is to use the Sublime Package Control tool (see the Installation page for instructions on how to install Sublime Package Control). In Sublime Text, choose Preferences | Package Control, select then the Install Package command, type PlainTasks to locate and install the package. To create a new task file, press Ctrl+Shift+P to evoke the command palette, type task, and select the Task: New document command. All actions in PlainTasks are performed using keyboard shortcuts. The Ctrl+Enter or Ctrl+I shortcut can be used to create tasks, while the Ctrl+Shift+A shortcut lets you mark the currently selected task as completed. You can group tasks into projects as well as assign tags to individual tasks. In short, if you already use Sublime Text as your preferred text editing tool and you would like to use it for managing tasks, PlainTasks is right up your alley.comments powered by Disqus

The Democratic Republic of Congo has become one of the world's bloodiest hot spots. 2003 saw the end of a five-year war in which millions lost their lives - one of the deadliest conflicts since World War II. Despite recent peace agreements and democratic elections, the country is still plagued by army and militia violence. Congo remains deeply troubled, since the deep-rooted causes of conflict have not been adequately addressed. The conflict in the DRC has divided opinion; some call it a civil war, or a war of aggression by the country's neighbours; others a continuation of Rwanda's Hutu-Tutsi conflict on Congolose soil, and a war of partition and pillage. The prevalence of rape and sexual violence has led some analysts to mark it out as a hidden 'war against women'. Tom Turner's insightful book reveals how each of these descriptions accurately captures the separate elements of this complex and multidimensional political conflict. In exploring each of these contributory factors, he shows how current attempts to rebuild the shattered state and society of DRC are doomed to fail. So long as the full complexity of the Congo crisis is not taken into account and a clear consensus as to its precise dimensions reached, the future looks bleak. The DRC, he argues, will likely remain a global hot spot for some time to come.

"Alesund & Sunnmore" Top 5 Page for this destination Ålesund by evaanna
Ålesund Travel Guide: 171 reviews and 544 photos
There is probably no other area in Norway that offers such a wide choice of activities for young and old, sports lovers and lazybones, the adventurous and the timid. The only thing they should all have in common is the love of nature as such magnificent scenery should not be wasted on the insensitive eyes of the practically-minded. But even they will find something to do there, be it , for instance, angling. The sea, the fjords, the mountains, the multitude of islands, all so pretty and inviting, make the choice difficult for the tourist. So all I can offer are some suggestions, but do consult the tourist brochures or the Internet before visiting the area: you will find many other ideas there.
- Pros:Beautiful sea and mountain scenery, a wide choice of possible activities
- Cons:Expensive, like everything in Norway
- In a nutshell:Not to be missed if you can afford it

The Art Nouveau houses are indeed beautiful. Again, you managed to find a cute little cabin surrounded by those wonderful mountains.
great photos !
Intersting information
Nice updates.
Lovely photos. That's an amazing story of the town being burned down and then rebuilt in Art Nouveau style.
What diversity! Loved the architecture, history, bird island, Sea Park, Aquarium...but best of all, Geiranger, Troll's ladder, and Dollstein Cave..thanks for this alluring adventure.
Ewa, this is a very enticing page! I can't believe how amazing that view of the Troll's Ladder is from high above! Wow, that aquarium visit sounds awesome and it reminded me of one I did on Quebec's remote Ile du Havre Aubert.
I have just started your Norway pages and look forward to reading many more. Alesund looks divine and your photos are just wonderful I think I'd be a bit nervous on those mountain roads though :))
Climbing over 4 ft. walls. Yes, that's my forte. All I need is a plane ticket...LOL
Excellent writing, great suggestions for side trips, outstanding pictures. Trollstigen is a must for me.

I've ridden a bicycle for most of my life (first true love, a red Raleigh 3-speed), but not much in the past 20 years. Had a "come to Jesus" meeting with a cardiologist, who said I could run, hike, or bike. I chose bike. Bought a Trek 7.3 WSD; nicest bike I've ever owned. Love commuting and running errands with it. Got tired of playing catch-up with the road bikers on group rides. Bought a Trek Lexa S; nicest bike I've ever owned.
So now my stable consist of my quarter horse (7.3) and thoroughbred (Lexa S). Still have a lot to learn, but (hopefully) not much else to buy (shorts, jerseys, lights, helmet, rack, toolkits, pumps... enough!).
Feel like a kid every time I ride.

Can you fit a 13" MacBook air in it?
Can you fit a 13" MacBook air in it?
Definitely. More than enough room.
Hmmm...I'm not so sure Angus!
This pack is only 11 inches wide!
I am going to have to side with Angus on this one. Laptops are measured diagonally across the screen so the actuall dimensions for the 13" Macbook Air is 12.8 x 8.9 x 0.7 in. This packs dimensions are 18 x 11 x 7 in. and should fit you laptop perfectly. Now keep in mind that there is no protection in this bag for your laptop so you might want to consider getting yourself a sleeve.
Yea, I'm with Angus and Wayne. I have the same computer and can verify Wayne's specs. It'll fit. Sorry Lexi, still have love for ya : )

text: When I woke up, I noticed Nicole had hit the road on for an early hike with Miette. I took this time to myself to catch up on some journal entry. I am very behind on it. It has been hard to keep up with my writing as well. Ive just been trying to live in the moment and havent been spending much time sitting to record it. Even though it looks SO beautiful outside, I must dedicate today to computer entry to get back on track, so Im not constantly worrying about this mounting task. I enjoyed a few pieces of the rich quiche that turned out to be very tasty and then sat down to the computer. Nicole and Miette came back around noon and wondered if I was interested in going out. I told her Id be dedicating today to the computer. After a hot drink, she went back out towards the park to enjoy another hike. Miette hung back with me while I continued recounting the last few days activities for my online journal. After catching up, I started to input past days writings into the computer. I passed much time doing this, taking breaks to snack on leftovers from last nights dinner. Eventually, it became dark and Nicole came back from her hike. She said she had a wonderful time outside enjoying the beautiful day. I told her I should have given her my camera to use out there. I finished up all but a week and a half of journaling and called it quits. I uploaded what I had typed and ended my work on the computer for now. Nicole and I watched another movie before going to bed. The plan was to get up early tomorrow and get a jump on any possible traffic.

AbstractTRS Technologies proposes to develop a variety of single crystal actuators for adaptive optics deformable mirrors. Single crystal piezoelectric actuators are proposed as a means of increasing actuator authority while maintaining strain precision for adaptive optics deformable mirrors used in future space observatory missions. Single crystals based on PZN-PT or PMN-PT represent a revolutionary advance in piezoelectric actuator technology. These materials exhibit 5 to 10 times the strain of conventional ceramic piezoelectrics with equivalent deliverable force. Therefore, they offer a much broader design space for adaptive optics systems than is currently available with ceramic actuators, electric motors or magnetic devices. The attributes of single crystals relevant to adaptive optics include: piezoelectric coefficients > 2000 pm/V and field induced strains > 0.5%, blocking forces equivalent to conventional piezoelectric and electrostrictive ceramic, very low strain-electric field hysteresis for high strain precision, much broader operating temperature range than electrostrictive PMN ceramic, very good cryogenic performance, and very high transverse piezoelectric coefficients (d32 better than -1600 pm/V). In the Phase I program TRS will measure the performance of both stack and flextensional-type actuators and SRS will model the impact of incorporating such actuators into state-of-the-art deformable mirror designs.

News ČEZ may call new tender for Temelín expansion next year
The state-owned power giant ČEZ may call a new tender for the expansion of the Temelín nuclear power plant next year, according to the deputy chair of the company's board of directors Václav Pačes. Mr. Pačes told Czech Television on Sunday that in his view this was a likely scenario and that there were still three options on the table – the expansion of Temelín by one or two reactors or the expansion of the Dukovany nuclear power plant. ČEZ scrapped a tender for Temelín's expansion by two reactors in April of this year on the argument that since the government would not guarantee the price of electricity generated by the new reactors the project would be economically unfeasible.

Právo: Lebanese national was extradited to US in April
Lebanese national Faouz Jaber was secretly extradited to the US to the Czech Republic weeks ago in connection with suspected terrorism charges, the weekly Právo reports. The move, confirmed by the police, was reportedly kept quiet for security reasons. Faouz Jaber was one of three people wanted by the United States, but earlier two other Lebanese citizens were allowed to return to their homeland in exchange for five Czechs held for more than half a year in that country. That move sparked sharp criticism of the Czech action from US authorities. They wanted to question the trio in connected with a suspected drugs for arms involving the FARC guerrilla movement in Colombia.
Damage to railway track in Friday crash estimated at almost 900,000 crowns
Repairs on railway track damaged in Prague after a passenger train derailed on Friday between the Vršovice and main train stations are underway and expected to continue over the weekend. The derailment of the train, not carrying passenger at the time, caused damage estimated at around 880,000 crowns. The accident blocked the use of two of four tracks, affecting connections throughout the day.
Snowboarder Ledecká wins King of the Snow Trail competition
Czech snowboarder Ester Ledecká, 21, was declared the overall winner of this year's King of the Snow Trail (Král bíle stopy) competition on Friday evening. Winners are chosen by experts, trainers, and sport journalists. Ledecká had a dream season in 2015-16: she was the overall winner on the World Cup circuit in parallel slalom snowbaording and is the first Czech to also win the parallel giant slalom at the FIS Snowboard World Cup.
Construction workers to begin renovation of last highway section at Výškov
Construction workers will begin renovation on a nine kilometre stretch of the country's D1 highway connecting Prague and Brno. Repairs on the stretch of road are to last until August 21, and traffic is to be limited to three lanes - two of them one way, the other in the opposite direction. Workers will be removing and replacing a 30 centimetre high concrete layer. Renovation of what in total has been a roughly 30 kilometre stretch on the D1 between Výškov and Brno began in 2012; other repairs are taking place elsewhere on the D1, for example outside of Prague. A combination of the repairs and traffic accidents in the summer contributes at times to traffic jams and prolonged delays on the country's main throughway.
US convoy continues journey across Czech Republic
Members of a US military convoy, greeted by Defence Minister Martin Stropnický, the Chief of the General Staff of the Czech Armed Forces Josef Bečvář and the US ambassador to Prague Andrew Shapiro on Friday, continued on their journey on Saturday morning to Výškov and Přáslavice. The convoy is on its way to exercises in the Baltic states. Czech army vehicles are due to join the convoy on Saturday, when Czech and US soldiers will get a chance to familiarize themselves with the different equipment being used. The US convoy is expected to quit Czech territory on Monday morning.
National football team secures easy win over Malta
The Czech national football team defeated Malta easily by a score of 6:0 in their friendly on Friday afternoon. The goals, three in each half, were scored by Plašil, Škoda, Hubník, Lafata, Necid, and 20-year-old Patrik Schick, making his national team debut. The match also saw the long-awaited return of team captain Tomáš Rosický. Goalkeeper Petr Čech earned his 119th start - a national team record, one better than retired player Karel Poborský. The squad will face a considerably tougher opponent, Russia, in another pre-Euro 2016 friendly next week.
Petra Kvitová out of French Open
Czech top woman singles player Petra Kvitová has been eliminated from the
French Open in the third round. Kvitová lost 0:6, 7:6, 0:6 to US player
Shelby Rogers, Rogers already knocked out Czech Karolína Plíšková in
the first round. Kvitová's form has been indifferent since the start of
the year with the player only recently recruiting a new trainer.
Last year's Czech finalist Lucie Šafářová also lost to Australian Samantha Stosur 3:6, 7:6, 5:7 and Barbora Strycová lost on Friday at the French Open despite taking the first set against the second-seed Agnieszka Radwanska. The match included an exciting exchange between the opponents which saw both slip to the ground before Strycová won the point. The final score was 6-2, 6-7 (6), 6-2.
Lawyer Klára Samková faces possible action over anti-Islamic comments
The Prague Bar Association and state prosecutors have said they are looking into controversial comments by lawyer Klára Samková. Samková compared Islam during a seminar in the lower house of parliament on May 18 to Nazism and Communism. The comments prompted a walk out by the Turkish ambassador and representatives of other Islamic countries attending. The bar council says it is examining whether the comments were in conflict with its ethical code and the prosecutor for Prague 1 into whether they represented a criminal offense. Samková later suggested the Turkish ambassador should be expelled from the Czech Republic.
Passenger train derailment causes disruption
Train chaos has been caused after part of an empty passenger train derailed between Prague's main train station and the suburb of Vršovice. Many local and long distance train services out of the capital have now been switched to other stations because of the closure of the key lines. Delays are expected to continue throughout the day before the problem can be dealt with.
Funeral service held for illustrator Adolf Born
Dozens paid their last respects to designer and illustrator Adolf Born at Prague's Strašnice crematorium on Friday. He died at the age of 85 on Sunday. Some of the mourners dressed up in traditional costumes from the end of the Hapsburg era. Born, was a great admirer of the Austro-Hungarian empire which preceded the creation of the independent Czechoslovakia in 1918. The ceremony ended with a rendition of Born's favourite Radetsky March by Johann Strauss senior. Born was the illustrator of hundreds of childrens' books enjoyed by four generation of Czechs.

I have the VTAC sling and a Magpul MS4. Both are very good (Vicker's sling might be made a little better), but the Magpul is easier / faster to switch from a 2-point to 1-point configuration. That might not be so important for hunting. There are videos of each on YouTube. It is worth checking out to see what you might be more comfortable with.

Badische Brauhaus: "Interesting place........." Karlsruhe Restaurant Tip by leics
Karlsruhe Restaurants: 137 reviews and 264 photos
It's a brewery, it has an indoor slide, there is a suit of armour.........
.....and it dealt very admirably indeed with the first main VT meeting, feeding and 'watering' (so to speak) 100+ VT-ers.
The beer was good here, especially the Dunkelbier (which I prefer). Very hoppy, very fruity.
The buffet laid on for VT-ers was good, with both hot and cold dishes.
And the ladies' loo has a most interesting decorative feature (see photo).
Worth a visit, if only for a beer-tasting session.
Address: Stephanienstrasse 38-40
Price Comparison: about average
Directions: Get to Europaplatz, then walk about 200m north up Douglasstrasse. The brewery is in front of you, slightly to the right.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Upon first blush, it appeared as though the rotation of defensive ends for the Philadelphia Eagles, highlighted by Trent Cole and Darryl Tapp, was able to get the better of Patriots left tackle Nate Solder on Monday night.
Though neither was able to generate a sack, Tapp registered a quarterback hit and bested Solder on a rush on the same play that quarterback Brian Hoyer was strip-sacked by Eagles defensive end Phillip Hunt, who surged around Marcus Cannon on the opposite side.
After the game, Solder said he would use the film as a learning tool for areas to improve upon. "We're going to look at it objectively, and we're going to see where we need to improve and I'm going to continue to improve my game," he said. "That's where I'm going to focus."
Although Tapp experienced some success against Solder, he says he likes what he sees in the second-year pro.
"He's a good young tackle. He's going to be even better, I think, the more reps he gets," Tapp said. "He's an athlete, he can move. Long arms. Definitely makes it a little bit harder to get to the quarterback, but he did a good job."
On the near sack for Tapp, he was able to beat Solder with a good jump off the edge, a signature staple of the Eagles' pressure-oriented defense.
"I was able to get a good jump that time and I just attacked him" Tapp said. "I guess I was able to catch him off hand. ... But he's definitely going to be a player to be reckoned with in the league."
Tapp's admiration for Solder's game is shared by Graham, who although did not align against Solder, studied him on film.
"He's a big long guy, somebody who you've got to get his hands off of," Graham said. "He's big, probably real strong. You've just got to stay on your game when you're playing against him."

There amongst the glib diversions of the newly rich, she seeks a husband who can not only maintain her in this charmed existence, but can also provide unstinting admiration.
Scandal, however, intervenes. Accused of being the mistress of a wealthy married man, Lily must withdraw from society. She becomes a milliner, but finds life outside the hothouse unendurable.
(P)2014 Audible, Inc.
Avid reader, picky about narrators.
I've listened to this book twice and will listen again after a while. I'd be happy to hear Eleanor Bron read the dictionary aloud: to hear her read Edith Wharton is pure bliss.
"Like Henry James but more accessible"
The novel portrays the New York upper middle class society in the late 19th century. Wharton writes elegantly, and is an acute psychologist and observer of manners. She's also very witty at times--with what you might call a stiletto wit. The reading is excellent, with subtle difference of voice and accent nicely calibrated to the character speaking.
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the book. But it made me wonder why writers like Wharton and Henry James devote themselves to writing about people who don't do anything--a class of idlers, in fact, who are terrified that they might have to work for a living. Perhaps they think that this idleness produces greater subjective sensitivity and depth. But I think their long descriptions and analyses of people's inner depths are rather more refined and sophisticated than is justified by reality. OccasionalIy found myself saying: Bring on a pirate! Let's have a murder! Or at least have someone kicked by a horse.
"If you think you may be interested, get it!"
Absolutely. This is one of the greatest novels by one of our greatest novelists. If you love beautiful writing and a great story, this is for you. Also: The narration by Eleonor Bron, the great, under-appreciated English actress who appeared in the film version of The House of Mirth (as well as the Beatles' movie Help!) is a work of art in itself.
The way social drama/comedy transforms into something much more profound.
Impossible to choose.
No, too long. A book to savor.
I had not expected this to be as good as Wharton's The Age of Innocence. I was wrong.
"Wharton's Masterpiece"
This novel is both a satire of New York society at the turn of the century and a tragedy about one woman's downfall. Wharton's depiction of wealthy society types is scathing. She combines the psychological insight of James and the epigrammatic wit of Wilde. In many ways, it is a shocking as it must have been when first published.
I sampled many versions and chose Eleanor Bron's reading for the quality of her voice. She gives a stunning reading, full of tenderness and pathos and the right bite when called for. Highest recommendation.
"Brilliant Writing"
This book is amazingly well written. There were so many beautiful turns of phrase and amazing metaphors and insights (comparing the wrinkled finery left on the floor after undressing to the unappealing leftovers of a banquet, allusions to the manacle-like nature of women's jewelry, chaining them to a life they may not have chosen). Edith Wharton truly is one of the great writers of the 20th century. I was a Literature major in college and I'm sad I never had a chance to study her works there. The narration was very good, the speaker had a pleasant voice.
"A hauntingly beautiful story ...."
The House of Mirth is my favorite Edith Wharton novel. I read and was enraptured by the book years ago, and I later became a fan of the 2000 film version. I don't see the point of retelling the plot in this kind of review. For those who are interested, I recommend reading (and especially listening to) the book before seeing the movie. I believe the film is generally successful with wonderful visuals, an inspired choice of casting and overall tone that captures the spirit and sensibilities of the novel. But listening to The House of Mirth was a much finer and fulfilling experience. This is a masterful performance by a narrator whose voice is modulate and appropriately cultured to convey the charms and treacheries of high society life in turn-of-the-century New York. Of course, it is a beautifully written book, with elegantly composed passages that stir and swell the story. I was absorbed in the curious turns and vanities of the heroine, Lily Bart, and while I never "like" her, I could not help but worry and wish for a better outcome for her. A great part of my enjoyment of this and other Wharton novels is the era of splendor that shape the stories. I have a fascination for 19th and early 20th century life in America, and I read a lot of non-fiction and historical works about the Gilded Age. Tycoons, industrialists, suffragettes, heiresses, artists, writers, presidents, dynastic families, immigrants, movers and shakers - they are captivating characters who made the era a conglomeration of progress and intended and unintended debasements. The House of Mirth is an exquisite sampling of upper crust society told through the fictional travails of a woman trying to hold her place among the haughty. It is a harrowing quest for a woman with no husband and no money of her own. Ms. Wharton is unsparing in her depiction of Miss Bart as a futilely aimed person. She reigns and falls in a web of characters who do not seek or have redeeming qualities. There are no great heroes, but they are great fun.
"Lily in a Gilded Cage"
Edith Wharton is a surgeon cutting apart and exposing the true insides of the best in society. Her exquisitely drawn descriptions of even minor characters are the reason to read the book -- you might know someone just like them even in today's "modern" times. That said a major draw back for me was the mean use of stereotypical Jew, which shines a light not so pleasant on Ms. Wharton herself.
"Vintage Wharton"
The story and characters are vintage Wharton. Very entertaining and historically informative. Best to listen over extended time to keep up with story.
An academic who listens to novels on runs and commutes to campus.
"Decisions Have Consequences"
Having now read Ethan Frome and Age of Innocence and listened to The House of Mirth, I can say that Edith Wharton is an unsympathetic author. She expects her characters and readers to look at the world through an objective lens. She places her characters into situations that have extreme consequences, and part of her program, so it seems, is to see how people will respond when tempted. What seems a small decision lingers throughout the narrative, especially for Lilly Bart, whose life descends into degradation as she is forced to compromise who she is for the sake of money. Simple decisions exact a terrible toll on her, and in the end, she succumbs to the hardships of her existence. If you enjoy happy endings or you feel too much for characters, then Edith Wharton might not be the author for your tastes. If you, on the other hand, expect a text to point to larger truths of how society functions--here late 19th/early 20th century--then her books are a fine source of how so much of life depends on the external forces of other people.
"Love this book, I'd recommend it to anyone!"
Such an amazing story!
The narrator was wonderful, I think she did a great job of changing her voice and portraying each character accurately. I was very impressed with her performance.
Love this book, I'd recommend it to anyone.
"The House of Mirth by Edith Wharton"
A beautifully written novel, expertly read by Eleanor Bron. It tells the story of 29 year old Lily Bart, a dazzling socialite in 1890's New York. The big problem for Lily is money, the fact that she has none and the life style she desires needs plenty.The novel follows her fall into poverty and the response of her friends and acquaintances. A fascinating look at late 19 Century American society
A delight to listen to.
"Beautifully done."
The worst of this was that the 'blurb' on Audible gives away the plot- I knew how Lily ended up before Eleanor Bron even opened her mouth.
Apart from that it was absolutely superb- as one expects from this publisher.
"Quite interesting"
At times I found this "hard work". It is well written and had good characterisation and the story is interesting but it is quite "plodding." Glad I have finished it.
Beautifully and sympathetically read by Eleanor Bron, this book is an expert example of vanitas - the futility and emptiness of worldly wealth - and will linger long in my mind. Edith Wharton's intelligent portrayal of the loneliness and waste of a beautiful young woman's life, discarded by the society who had once feted her, is profound in the extreme.
"Wonderful listening"
Having read and listened to the book The House of Mirth, I can recommend this title for anyone who appreciates the beauty of Edith Wharton's prose. Nothing is lost and the characterisation and accent are totally in keeping with the time period of the story. This book is a classic example of Wharton's style, dramatic irony, telling the tale of Lily Bart, beautiful, witty and sophisticated, who dares to claim the privileges of marriage without assuming the responisbilities. This will lead to her downfall. The book is long but the words are carefully chosen and the change of settings and situations keep the listener totally absorbed.
"Wonderful Wharton, Beautifully Read"
This is a favourite book of mine, a modern classic and Eleanor Bron reads it beautifully. Poor stunning Lily Bart. This is such a complex, moving portrait of a beauty, a fine spirit and the fashionable and established society she lives in, raising questions about integrity, worth, status etc in a complulsive story.
If you enjoy it, do listen to The Age of Innocence too, it may be even better.
"Absolute Perfection"
Exceeded my expectations. Classic Wharton with perfect narration by Eleanor Bron. I was unable to stop listening, which for me is rare.
"Beautiful and sad"
Yes. I read this book many years ago as I love the writing of Edith Wharton, an intelligent and perceptive author, but I particularly loved this book so was happy for Eleanor Bron to read it to me again and I picked up on things I feel I missed when I read it all that time ago.
When Lawrence Seldon offers Lily a different life than the one she is currently pursuing. I felt this was the turning point in the book.
Her voice is beautifully modulated throughout with a soft American accent that felt right and never jarring.
Yes, it made me feel angry by the unkindness and jealousy of women towards other women and the hypocrisy of the wealthy society that existed at that time. However, how people are so ready to believe the worst of others without being in a position to judge still goes on today.
Because of the way Lily Bart was raised, she knew herself to be a beautiful woman and used that beauty to pursue marriage to a wealthy man, but riches were not enough to replace love. Pride can sometimes preclude us from taking the proper path.
"Not a bundle of laughs"
Although the title may be deceptive (the central character, Lily Bart, comes to a tragic end), this is a beautifully written book, superbly interpreted by the reader, Eleanor Bron. Edith Wharton is an easier to read version of Henry James, and depicts brilliantly the vanity and hypocrisy of American society at the beginning of the 20th century. Well worth listening to.
"Highly Recommended"
I came to this book late - following a quiz I thought I'd already read it but had confused it with a Henry James novel. Don't delay! Beautifully read, as well as written. And tragic - it's too easy today to dismiss the significance of moral standards of past ages. How lucky we are today.

Amigo Group
Update on Amigo GroupThe group Amigo is composed of three Filipino men who have been friends ever since they came to Lebanon. They all work as chefs in Lebanese restaurants.
Richard is the group leader and the featured member sitting at the far left side of the picture. He is a 39-year-old married father whose family is still living in the Philippines. His wife is unemployed, which makes him the main and only financial provider of the family.
He and his group members are acquiring this loan to satisfy their beloved families' increasing needs. His loan from Al Majmoua will be sent to his beloved family back in the Philippines to make sure that they will have the chance to celebrate a delightful Christmas like anyone else must do during this holy season.
Doroteo is the man sitting in the middle of the picture, and Emiego Jr. is the man sitting at the right of the picture. Both of them will also send their part of the loan to their families for the same reason, and they all hope that soon they will be capable of uniting back with their beloved ones and starting their own businesses in their hometown.

Additional Information
About Al Majmoua – Lebanese Association for DevelopmentThe Lebanese Association for Development – Al Majmoua is Lebanon's leading microfinance institution and the oldest Kiva partner in Lebanon. Al Majmoua's vision is to "be the leader in creating an inclusive financial system where all people in Lebanon have access to affordable services." Given Lebanon's diverse population, Al Majmoua lends to all nationalities, provided legal residency. The strong financial position achieved to date has allowed Al Majmoua to steadily lower its pricing over the years.
Based on the belief that non-financial services play a complementary role in improving the quality of life of the most vulnerable entrepreneurs, Al Majmoua has established a solid Business Development Services program for both borrowers and non-borrowers with a focus on women and youth.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.
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.

N.C. Symphony to play movie music
Published: Tuesday, October 8, 2013 at 5:30 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, October 8, 2013 at 2:07 p.m.
William Henry Curry and the North Carolina Symphony return to Wilmington Saturday for a concert devoted to a living composer – of movie music.
What: The North Carolina Symphony,
performing the music of John Williams
When: 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 12
Where: Kenan Auditorium, UNCW
campus, S. College Road, Wilmington
Tickets: $24-$50, $10 for students
Details: 962-3500 or www.NCsymphony.
That's a poor hint. In fact, the orchestra will play works by John Williams, 48 times an Academy Award nominee, winning for "Jaws," "Star Wars," "E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial" and "Schindler's List."
Williams' work spans about 60 years, starting with his days writing music for television shows such as "Lost in Space" and the pilot episode of "Gilligan's Island." Then came a run of works for popular disaster movies, including "The Towering Inferno" and "The Poseidon Adventure."
His long collaboration with director Steven Spielberg began with "Sugarland Express," and led to such memorable scores as those for "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," "Raiders of the Lost Ark," "Empire of the Sun," and "Saving Private Ryan."
A younger generation has come to know Williams' music through the film adaptations of J.K. Rowling's "Harry Potter" novels.
The symphony will be led by resident conductor William Henry Curry.

Share Share Share Story by UTV Staff, Belfast The victim is in a "serious but stable" condition in the Royal Victoria Hospital, Belfast after being struck by a lit petrol bomb which was thrown into his Waterside home on Friday night.Two youths smashed a living room window of the property at Ben Varden Avenue at 11.10pm and threw the missile inside. It struck the man, setting him alight. The victim was rescued by neighbours, who managed to get him out of the house."I just can't get the images out of my head. It's shocking," one of the neighbours said."I tried to get in two or three times, but the smoke was too thick," he explained.When he eventually got through the smoke, the neighbour said that the victim was lying on the living room floor on fire. The sofa was also alight.Emergency crews initially thought his injuries were life threatening. After undergoing surgery twice, the victim remains seriously ill.Chief Inspector Jon Burrows, Foyle Area Commander, told UTV: "We must stress the significant injuries to the victim - he was has been left with 35% burns."We're treating this as attempted murder. The people who did this are dangerous people. They're a danger to the community and we need to get justice for the victim."Commander Burrows added that there is "no clear motive" for the attack."We have no indication yet as to what the motive is."This was an entirely innocent man, who was sitting on his sofa on a Friday evening minding his own business and he has been attacked in his own home by two people who have very nearly killed him."He is still extremely seriously ill in hospital. "The male youths were described as being dressed in grey hooded tops with scarves over their faces.It is believed they made off in the direction of Dervock Place."We really need the public's help in identifying these people and taking them off the streets," Commander Burrows added.Derry SDLP councillor Gerry Diver has strongly condemned the attack, describing it as mindless.A local resident, Councillor Diver said that he was on the scene within minutes."This is a shocking incident and our thoughts are with the man injured in this attack," he said."I am completely disgusted that such attacks are still going on in the city and my sympathies are with the victim. We pray that he makes a full recovery from his injuries."He said the fire could have easily spread to adjacent properties on the avenue, which is a row of terraced houses."Petrol bombs are lethal weapons. If it hadn't been for the swift actions of this gentleman's neighbours, we could have dealing with a tragedy today."I urge anyone who may have any information relating to this incident to come forward to local PSNI without delay." © UTV Share Share Share

The Northwest Sportfishing Industry Association says reversing the decision to close angling in a small but popular section of the Buoy 10 area at Astoria will be a major focus in 2014.
On Friday, the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission voted 3-2 to adopt the Youngs Bay Control Zone, which closes sports fishing from Aug. 1 through Sept. 15 north of the Highway 101 bridge over Youngs Bay and south of a line from the Warrenton Fiber seawall upstream through the green navigation buoys to the Astoria-Megler Bridge.
Senate Bill 830, passed by the Oregon legislature in 2013, directed the commission to create a closure area. It is part of several Columbia River sport and commercial fishing reforms that emerged in 2012.
The closed zone is designed to reduce the interception of fall chinook and coho returning to the Youngs Bay commercial fishery.
"This is punitive and sets a dangerous precedent," said Trey Carskdon, NSIA vice president.
Liz Hamilton, NSIA executive director, called the commission's decision "a huge blow to the hotels, restaurants, gas stations and tackle and bait shops in Clatsop County."
NSIA plans to work during the Oregon legislative season and with the governor's office to try to reverse the decision, she added.

Amazing job!
This is incredibly atmospheric!
Looks too amazing. Only thing I can say maybe the hand seems a bit small, could be me, but with the amount of effort you put in, hardly an issue. Great work.
Thank you for your comment. And you're definitely right. I knew it was small according to the body. But it was little too late. Cuz I recognized after I paint it. So I couldn't fix it. Glad you like it and thank you again!
No prob! I did that to one drawing myself when seeing the legs on the girl I drew looked too thick, head was too small. Thanks to the magic of photoshop was able to slim the legs and enlarge the head. But yeah, proportions are such a pain the a$$ lol.
Haha great method. It's really easy to do it to digital drawings. But when I do it to normal drawings they look kinda weird lol. There're more bad situations. For once I drew and paint everything. But I forgot to paint the thumb. No one realized
Dammnnnnn beautifulllll talentt
looks amazing

OK, as a Canadian, eh? ... which naturally makes me an expert on beers, I've got to ask ... 'why the hate for Heineken beer'?
During the summer, I usually drink lagers for their refreshment, and switch to ales for the winter. My three summer favourites are:
Labatt's Blue
and Heineken
All three are refreshing and similarly tasting lagers ... at least to my well-developed taste buds
So what's up Foo, why no love for Heineken???
