Welcome to the new blog! I'm Jeff VanderMeer, and I'm a novelist and a nonfiction writer who has been writing for the Amazon blog for the last few months. (Check out my reviews in The Washington Post, Bookslut, and elsewhere.) My own work tends toward the fantastical, magic realist, surrealist part of the spectrum, and so I cover Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror for this blog.
I also receive a lot of fantastical graphic novels for review--and my favorite book of the year for 2007 is actually a graphic novel, Shaun Tan's wordless The Arrival about an immigrant in a strange city. I discussed it on this blog a couple of weeks ago. "Timeless classic" wouldn't be a bad description of this beautiful book. But it's always better to let the creator describe their own work, so I talked to Tan about certain aspects of The Arrival, including his creative process.
Amazon: The book has several elements that could be considered grace notes, not least of which are the many, many faces portrayed on the endpapers/inside boards of the book. As you were developing the idea for the book, was this always part of the plan? And where did these faces come from?
Shaun Tan: Yes, I always wanted to have a collection of anonymous "passport portraits", right from the very beginning. I find the endpapers a fascinating part of the book, a kind of footnote to the main story, the first and last thing a reader will see. I had the idea that you could select any one of these portraits and create an entirely new story, as if each nameless individual has a tale to tell. My own narrative about a man leaving a disintegrating city is simply one of a million possible stories, real or imaginary. The faces themselves are all hand-drawn, borrowing from a number of sources--some are family and friends, some are immigrants from about a century ago, traveling to the US and Australia, and some are imaginary.
Amazon.com: Why did you decide to use a fantastical element in this evocative portrayal of the immigrant experience?
Shaun Tan: I thought this would be the best way of conveying an impression of an immigrants' experience, by creating a new country--possibly and eighth continent--which will be foreign to all readers (including myself). That's one reason, putting the reader in a migrant's shoes. Secondly, I think that the fantastical elements operate as metaphors, allowing a myriad of different ideas to be contained within something singular and universal. For instance, the black serpents that crowd the sky in the first part of the book suggest something dark and oppressive, but do not specify a particular meaning. They may represent poverty, hunger, political problems, disease, or something else--their "unreality" allows for multiple interpretations and especially personal interpretations from different readers (who may themselves be immigrants). As an artist, I'm always looking for images that can work this way.
Amazon.com: How do stories like this generally come to you? Could you talk about your creative process?
Shaun Tan: It's really a little of all of those things. I suppose most stories begin with a few images; vague, dreamlike impressions (often I'm not sure where these come from) as well as a set of more conscious questions. In this case, "What would it be like to travel to a country that you know nothing about?" and "How can a book best convey this experience?" Other ideas emerged from fairly methodical research--looking at archival images relating to theme of immigration, and gathering a collection of written accounts of immigrant experiences, as well as interviewing friends who are from other countries about problems of language, food, work, education and so on. I also keep sketchbooks all the time that are filled with random doodles and written notes, inspired by things I see or hear everyday; a conversation, a news story, a glimpse of landscape, any daydreamed bits of nonsense. These become part of a random, indispensable library of ideas I can draw upon and refine, and hopefully will trigger narrative ideas.
Drawing is the essential thing that brings various threads together, and also suggests new ideas. I sketch very quickly using a simple ball-point pen, pictures in small squares, dozens at a time, like a form of writing without words. Often the act of scribbling creates unexpected impressions, a little like finding shapes in clouds--and this brain-storming opens a pathway to a more subconscious world, and can trigger distant, subtle memories. Things often "feel right" without the benefit of a clear explanation: I just trust my instincts. I try not to control or worry about what I am sketching--that comes later when I go through and "edit" my ideas more critically, deciding which parts are relevant or meaningful, and which are not.
Once I have a rough plan of the entire story, like a storyboard for a film, I concentrate on developing finished images, again making reference to research, new sketches and so on. In the case of The Arrival, I took many reference photos as the basis for drawings of people, objects and landscapes. Often friends or family members would "act out" scenes in my garage, which became a kind of temporary theatre set. They would interact with each other, and basic cardboard props (things I would draw in more detail later) and I would video this, transfer this to my computer and select which image frames best captured the gesture or composition I was looking for. I would then re-draw everything a couple of times, adding new details, and eventually produce a final drawing using graphite pencils on paper. It is really quite a slow and methodical process, one page of twelve images taking about a week to complete.... the main reason the book took over four years to finish!

Fascinating replies, indeed. I'll look for this book.

Product DescriptionThe Colt Single Action Army revolver, alternately known as the Peacemaker, Model P, or Frontier, is the most popular handgun on the American Frontier and the definitive firearm of the Old West. The Single Action Army action is a refinement of the earlier Colt percussion revolvers and the Colt 1871 cartridge revolver. The cylinder is mounted on a central axis and operated by a hand with a double finger whose more extended action allowed the cylinder-ratchet to be cut in a larger circle, giving more torsional force to the cylinder. This 1964-manufacutured revolver, a tribute to Samuel Colt, founder of Colt Firearms, features a nickel-plated cylinder and trigger guard and comes with a wooden display box, a commemorative medallion, and 12 inert silver cartridges. Its wood and metal are in very good condition and its bore is in good condition.

WELLSBORO - Alan Zeigler, of Larson Design Group, presented a review of the borough's water system for the municipal authority Tuesday.
The authority had Zeigler prepare the review as part of its discussion of whether to search for an alternate water source or try to work with what it has, which has been subject to recurring "boil water" advisories.
What Zeigler told them was that it would cost several million dollars and take four or more years to find, study, get approval for - and put into operation - a new water source from an entirely different location, such as north of the borough where there is less chance of running into issues with "exceptional value wetlands."
Once the validity and need for the new water source is determined, he added, a ranking system is employed, assigning a certain number of points to the project.
"Of course the higher the number of points, the faster the project gets funded," Zeigler said.
The other option the borough has is to invest in the microfiltration system it is leasing as a back-up system for when its slow sand filter system fails.
That system would cost $1.7 million and needs approval from the state Department of Environmental Protection. A permit for that approval is under review by the department.
Water from the borough's current water sources, the Brownlee wells in Delmar Township and Hamilton Lake, can be subject to increased algae and nutrient pollution during certain times of the year, requiring the filters to be cleaned and changed more often, Zeigler added.
Another option is to dredge Hamilton Lake, which would give the borough access to certain other state programs such as lake management plans, he said.
"It is very important for the authority to do good planning to make sure you have a system in place to meet the needs of the community for long term of 30-40 years, and that system improvements are made with no issues during that period like boil water advisories," Zeigler said.

Hi! My name is Bella
I am Domestic Shorthair from Santa Ana, CA
Nicknames: Tinkerbell, Izzykitty
Age: 6 years old
Gender: F
Coat: short haired
Education: I am unsure how we found her but a kid came to the door about a child who had said she couldn't have the kitten (stray) and she scratched the girl while outside and ran. The kids chased her and when my husband found her she was meowing up in the front of end of a parked car in Orange County, California where we live. Updated 6.22.2010- Bella is still on the decision fence as I may experience unemployment benefits after June 1st, I was set till December now everything is looking bleak. I plan to have her spayed if I do offer her for adoption and fully vaccinated. I am letting her gain weight, she should be at least 10 weeks now so in about 6 weeks I will offer. Hands down she is a family pick. She had a moment where she jumped on the couch and my husband went to pet her. She became startled immediently and he told me he was holding her on the couch pressing her down, afraid she might scratch. Since I haven't used gloves she hasn't scratched, not once, and she is slowly stopping her vocal wine when we pick her up.
My favorite tricks and treats are: No right now she just squeaks a lot when picked up. and She eats everything very quickly, we're letting her just snack all day. She is very bony and skinny, but even in 1 week has evened out. I have yet to deworm her, since I'm going to do it when I do the other cats.
Where I hang out: Front part of our home on the highest level of the cat tree. She likes to run in my big closet behind the containers so we put a cat bed in there and she has no problems, Rex her buddy likes it too.
My favorite grubs: Science Diet Kitten (canned and dried)
My pet peeves: She is still very afraid of us picking her up, but my husband has done an awesome job with her. She lays on his lap but still is very afraid when we pick her up. She doesn't try to claw us, just meows very gentle and pitiful. One day my husband scared her and she freaked out, he held her until she calmed down. She didn't scratch or bite but was just trying to flee very rapidly. I think the worms were hurting her because she was sensitive. Its been about 7 days and she is fattening up nice. But for about 3 days she wouldn't go near my husband, in fact she got Mickey, my big boy, very protective for her. He actually growled at my husband too, they didn't bite but my husband picked Mickey up and he was fine. Bella ran behind the stove, I blocked off the kitchen and she stays in the tree which forced her to forgive my husband. He pet her and finally she calmed down and even ate out of his hand. She was mad about it though and it took 3 days to bring her back.
What I love about my owners: I'm thinking its kind of nice to sleep at the foot of the bed, not ready to get too close yet.
My cat hobbies: Sleep on the highest cup of the cat tree, should could barely jump the next day she was at our house.
Pet motto: Meow.
See all awards »
My husband saved her from under a car on a hot afternoon. I took her in the house to cool her down and bathed her for fleas (used gloves to avoid getting scratched and bitten she was so scared). After a while she quieted down and just kept meowing and panting. We are still in the decision stage but I think she may stay with us. Update June 22nd 2010 I have looked into a good low cost clinic for neutering and spaying. Rex has an appointment as he will be 4 months in July. Bella will go in July or August, she has to be 4 pounds. I found out she is just getting in some teeth, I think the starvation caused her teeth to form slower. I have started her on organic sugarless yogurt in the morning with her regular food to increase calcium for her. She likes the taste, healthy too. We dewormed her and Rex, Mickey gets Revolution. I don't want her to have kittens so I'm going to make sure she is spayed if I do let her go. I cannot think about adopting a rescue out that isn't fixed. She's a sweet girl.

Charles A. Stuart, M.D.
Dr. Stuart is primarily interested in risk factors for obesity and type 2 diabetes. The central mechanism of these two interrelated conditions is hereditary insulin resistance. Dr. Stuart's laboratory in Endocrinology is focused on aberrations of insulin action on glucose uptake into skeletal muscle. The laboratory team has demonstrated that the expression of at least two glucose transporter genes is abnormal in the muscle of subjects with insulin resistance. The mechanism of these abnormalities is currently being pursued by evaluating the structure and function of the human GLUT3 promoter, developing a GLUT3 knockout mouse line, and seeking out quantification of gene expression in muscle of the several novel glucose transporters discovered since 2000.
Stuart continues to be involved in research into effective primary prevention of childhood obesity in Native American communities. Much of the interest in childhood obesity in many collaborating tribes has focused on the use of the skin lesion acanthosis nigricans as an easily recognized external manifestation of hyperinsulinemia. Early work in this project has been the major impetus for State-mandated large-scale school-based screening for obesity and acanthosis nigricans in Texas.

THE CHONDROMA in its pure form without any osseous cells may be one of the most troublesome of bone tumors. Because of its cellular nature, its occasional failure to be revealed in roentgenograms and its tendency to extend locally beyond borders which are at best not easily discerned on macroscopic inspection, it becomes a difficult tumor to handle surgically. Add to this the fact that at times some areas of these tumors may be undergoing malignant change while others appear benign and that there is a widespread belief that some of these tumors, apparently benign when first seen, may actually undergo malignant degeneration, and one has an even more serious problem.
Coley1 made a distinction in chondrosarcomas, classifying some as primary and others as secondary. The latter type "results from a malignant alteration in the cells of a cartilaginous exostosis, a central chondroma or rarely in a patient who

Tanning is the body's natural response to ultraviolet light. The tanning process involves the relatively quick reddening of the skin followed by a slower forming, but longer lasting browning of the skin. The key is providing sufficient amounts of UVB to properly stimulate melanin followed with effective amounts of UVA to complete the tanning process.
UVA: The "tanning rays which have the longest wavelength and penetrate deepest into the skin.
UVB: The shorter wavelength rays that produce melanin which starts the tanning process.
Oxygen: Found in the bloodstream, it is brought to the surface of the skin and allows for the exudation or browning of the skin. Without oxygen, the tanning process could not take place.
Tanning occurs in the top layer of the skin, known as the epidermis. The outer layer of the epidermis, the horny layer, is made up of about 95 percent keratinocytes, or protein keratin, and 5 percent melanocytes, or pigment cells. The melanocytes use the amino acid tyrosine to produce melanosomes. The melanosomes contain the protein pigment, melanin, which is ultimately responsible for the tan one attains.
Everyone has the same number of melanocytes in their skin, but the amount of melanin your melanocytes will produce will be a function of each person's genetic makeup, as well as their exposure to certain levels of ultraviolet light. Hence, heredity will ultimately determine your skin color and the capability of your skin to tan. Therefore it is imperative for tanning facilities to correctly identify the skin type of their clients to determine the proper exposure time, or whether tanning is appropriate at all.
Ultraviolet light is responsible for the tanning process which takes place in the skin. Ultraviolet light is that part of the electromagnetic spectrum from 200nm through 400nm. This part of the spectrum is further divided into three parts, UVC (200-280nm), UVB (280-320nm), and UVA (320-400nm). (Note: The definitions of UVB and UVC are slightly different in Europe than that defined by the FDA in the U.S. This accounts for different UVB% ratios for the same lamps in different parts of the world).
UVC is very destructive and is not part of the tanning process. The earth's atmosphere blocks harmful UVC, hence acting to filter this radiation. In the case of fluorescent tanning bulbs, the glass acts to filter out these wavelengths.
UVB and UVA both exist in natural sunlight and in tanning bulbs. They are also both critical in the tanning process. The UVB stimulates melanin production which results in more pigment cells and a consequent thickening of the skin. This latter process, known as hyperplasia, is important in protecting the skin from further exposure. The UVA oxidizes the melanin, with a browning or tanning effect.
Ultimately, the tanner's skin type will determine the range of tan one can get. The bulbs one uses and the amount of exposure to those bulbs will determine the type of tan within that range.
Understanding this process helps us to understand that both UVA and UVB are important in the tanning process. As a result, the amount of UVA and UVB coupled with the tanner's genetic makeup will determine the color and depth of tan.

Well, as this is written, FBI agents have suspended efforts to find Jimmy Hoffa's body in a field in Oakland, Mich.
Other folks are looking for Amelia Earhart about 1,800 miles from Maui - in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.
Amelia has been gone since 1937 - Jimmy, just since 1975.
Now, Jimmy is perhaps the hotter of these cold cases. He went to meet some of the wonderful friends who had helped him corrupt the Teamsters Union in the late 1950s and 1960s. But he was relatively fresh from prison in 1975 and - believe it or not - Teamster leadership didn't want to share power with the newly paroled Jimmy in the 1970s.
A shovel to the head, a little digging in Oakland, and Jimmy's comeback was over.
Amelia's is a little bit more sympathetic story - but it borders on the pathetic. Yes, she was the first woman to cross the Atlantic Ocean in an airplane. Unfortunately, she was a passenger on that flight, not the pilot.
She was a gifted aviator, but also a bit of a publicity hound. Her attempt to circumnavigate the globe at the equator ended on July 2, 1937. The Lockheed Electra that Earhart and her navigator, Fred Noonan, were aboard was lost on a leg to Howland Island in the South Pacific.
There are rumors now that Earhart's plane has been found and a tip that Hoffa's body is in Oakland.
There may be a financial reason to pursue the recovery of Earhart's plane. Private investors are funding those efforts.
But the Hoffa case is throwing good federal money down the drain. Who cares which Mafioso bashed Hoffa's brains in? He died by the same hand he had dealt others.
The Earhart story is a different one. It would be interesting to learn if that brave woman survived a crash and lived for a while on an atoll in the South Pacific.

Kirsten Dunst won best actress at Cannes for her role in Lars von Trier's Melancholia, so you'd think that when she got asked about Von Trier's Nazi comments (which were only offensive if you're an idiot), she might at least show an attempt at understanding. Perhaps a "he means well, but…", or "well you know how granddad is when he drinks, glug glug glug" — something, at least out of gratitude. But of course she didn't. She washed her hands of him at the first sign of controversy like the same prissy little idiot who started shifting uncomfortably in her seat before he'd even finished his sentence. Hey, bitch, why don't you let me finish? Maybe I was going to say "just kidding."
[Asked whether she thinks it's fair that she was rewarded despite what happened with Lars]
"I should not be affected by things that he said. So for me, things that he said were very inappropriate and idiotic, and I'm pleased that the festival and the jury could see beyond his words.
This is a festival about freedom of speech and film, and what he did was separate, and he paid for it."
"How dare he speak freely at a festival dedicated to freedom of speech! I'm glad he got blacklisted for something he said!" What a spineless moron. You know, I always felt bad for Kirsten Dunst when people made fun of her ghostly skin and creepy pebble teeth (mainly because she had nice boobs, but still), but now I wish I could go back in time and retroactively pile on, because she clearly deserves it. SCREW YOUR BOOBS, KIRSTEN DUNST! YOU ARE NOT WORTHY! In conclusion, I leave you with this gif of her horrified reaction:
I like to imagine this gif and spazzy Brendan Fraser on a blind date together.

Last month, 31,741 Pennsylvanians were cut from Medical Assistance, the insurance that covers people who are disabled, poor, or gravely ill. Almost 18,000 children lost their benefits.
The reduction is a point of pride for state Department of Public Welfare officials, who are trying to cut the budget by clearing out ineligible recipients whose paperwork was not complete.
But workers and advocates say that in many cases, the fault doesn't lie with the recipients but with the Welfare Department. Its stepped-up reviews of backlogged cases have combined with a shrinking staff, computer issues, and an increase in applications for assistance because of the high unemployment rate to create a wave of terminations.

Jupiter Island, Cyclists Reach Accord On Riding Safety
Palm Beach Post: Jupiter Island, cyclists reach accord on riding safety
By BILL DIPAOLO
Friday, September 11, 2009
JUPITER ISLAND- — Bicycle riders and town officials might have reached a compromise.
Last month, the town commission was talking about restricting bike riders along the island's lush, curvy waterfront road. But now that bike riders have agreed to limit the size and speed they travel through the island, the ordinance originally proposed for Sept. 14 has been withdrawn from the agenda.
No date has been set to consider the ordinance, said the town clerk.
"It sounds like both sides have come to an agreement. I just hope we can work together to keep both sides happy," said Mike Ellner, owner of Cycle Science in Juno Beach.
Countywide, bicycle riders are meeting with municipal leaders to try to avoid passing new laws to restrict bicycle riding, said Jim Smith, co-founder of Safety As Floridians Expect, a bike safety group in Delray Beach.
"It's not just Jupiter Island. Delray Beach, Boca Raton - lots of communities are trying to reach a compromise to make bike riding safer and motorists happier," Smith said.
Bicycle riders blocking traffic when they ride four and five abreast, not pulling over for ambulances and buzzing beyond the 30 mph speed limit along South County Road caused the Jupiter Island Commission to consider the restrictions, Police Chief Ted Gonzalez said.
The riders also "draft" just a few feet behind each other, increasing the likelihood of a crash, he said.
Bicycle riders counter that they obey traffic rules. They say drivers often do not stay the required three feet away when passing them.
When Gonzalez began meeting with leaders of north county bike riding groups, he told them about the ordinance being considered.
Eager to stop the Jupiter Island Commission from bringing up the ordinance, members of the Northern Palm Beach Bicycle Club on Aug. 23 did their last Sunday morning ride through the island just north of Tequesta. The group, sometimes as many as 80 strong, now rides on U.S. 1 between Juno Beach and Port Salerno, said Jeff Orr, a Jupiter bike rider and owner of J-Town Bicycles in Juno Beach.
And no more large riding groups. When bike riders do ride through the island, there are might be half a dozen.

Parks Canada
Home > Library > Mount Revelstoke, Glacier, and Rogers Pass Management Plan > Summary of the Environmental Assessment > Management Plan
Thanks to Parks Canada's commitment to maintaining species that depend on old-growth forests, there will be no human-caused reduction in the parks' ancient forests. An evaluation of any proposal is required to ensure it will not affect these unique old-growth stands.
Expanding the transportation corridor and forestry operations outside the parks could threaten old-growth species. As stated previously, the parks are committed to collaborating with others to address concerns.
Climate change may also affect old-growth forest; long-term monitoring is required to identify trends.
Proposals to work with others in the Columbia Mountains Natural Region will mitigate impacts on species-at-risk.
Parks Canada recognizes the importance of cooperation in researching, monitoring and managing species-at-risk. Although some proposals have the potential to affect species-at-risk, environmental assessments would identify mitigation to minimize and/or eliminate impacts. Possible significant impacts of external stressors will again require a cooperative approach. The plan includes a series of actions related to the protection of old-growth and riparian dependent species.
Education, research and monitoring, combined with proposals for the transportation corridor, may reduce human-caused wildlife mortality.
Human use, the transportation corridor and forestry operations all contribute to wildlife mortality. Several existing or proposed research programs will determine population levels of certain species. Combined with other initiatives – "best practices" for the highway and railway, wildlife crossing structures, speed reductions, fencing, education, and initiatives to reduce habituation of wildlife – these programs may reduce wildlife mortality.
More traffic and increased speed associated with expanding the transportation corridor could significantly increase the number of wildlife/vehicle collisions. The environmental assessment of twinning the highway would require specific mitigation to address this issue.
It is important for Parks Canada to continue its participation in joint research and monitoring and to collaborate in developing land use and wildlife management practices in the regional ecosystem. Parks Canada must also participate in environmental assessments for regional projects, to mitigate their effect on the parks.
With proper mitigation, identified through project-specific environmental assessments, residual effects should be insignificant.
Many of the proposals will reduce the impact of past activities, improving the ecological and commemorative integrity of the parks and historic site. Where data to determine levels of acceptable use are not available, research and monitoring will provide the information required to implement changes.
The parks will continue to experience stress from external sources including forestry operations, dams, communities and recreation in the surrounding area. While Parks Canada will work with others to reduce the environmental impact of these activities, certain residual effects will remain (e.g., habitat fragmentation and access issues). The long-term implications of these residual effects are unclear, in part due to uncertainty over levels of human use and access, and the possible upgrades to the Trans-Canada Highway.
In March 2002, Parks Canada distributed a management plan concept to stakeholders, First Nations, staff, and the public for review. The document discussed the management plan's proposals and the resulting environmental effects.
Parks Canada has analysed the comments it received and incorporated suggestions as appropriate. Once the management plan is approved and proposals are brought forward for implementation, specific projects will be subject to further environmental assessment and public review.
The cumulative effect of the plan's proposals will clearly help enhance ecological and commemorative integrity. Potentially adverse effects of proposals in the management plan can be mitigated so they are insignificant.
The management plan for Mount Revelstoke, Glacier and Rogers Pass is consistent with Parks Canada's legislation and policies. Satisfactory peer review and public input have taken place. The management plan proposes actions to address the ecological threats identified in the parks' Ecological Integrity Statement. Further research and project-specific environmental assessments will guide future decision-making. Parks Canada recognizes the importance of co-operating with neighbouring land management agencies and stakeholders to protect ecological and commemorative integrity. This approach will help to address cumulative effects, since decisions and direction will be based on the scale at which environmental effects occur.

The new edition of CBC's Battle of the Blades will feature a mix of some of the NHL's former tough guys and slick skaters.
Players such as Theo Fleury, Valeri Bure, Patrice Brisebois and Georges Laraque are among the eight players announced Tuesday by CBC that will take part in the second season of the reality show, which pairs world-class figure skaters with former hockey players.
The new season begins on Sept. 26 with a behind-the-scenes training camp episode. Competition begins on Oct. 3.
After a successful inaugural season in 2009, when an average of more than 1.7 million viewers watched the show, CBC has added top-notch American and Russian figure skaters to the group of top Canadian stars.
"Fans can expect to see the competition taken to an entirely new level with this year's participation of Russian and American skaters who are bringing an international twist to this groundbreaking Canadian series," said John Brunton, president and executive producer of Insight Productions.
Fleury scored more than 1,000 points during his 15-year NHL career, while Bure, the younger brother of former Vancouver Canucks star Pavel Bure, picked up more than 400 points in 10 seasons.
Brisebois played 17 seasons, including 15 seasons with the Montreal Canadiens, while Laraque was considered one of the NHL's toughest players to play the game. He is joined by Kelly Chase, a tough right-winger who picked up more than 2,000 career penalty minutes with the St. Louis Blues, Toronto Maple Leafs and Hartford Whalers.
Also joining in the battle to win $100,000 for their favourite charity is Russ Courtnall, a slick-skating winger who played 15 NHL seasons; P.J. Stock, who played 235 career NHL games with the New York Rangers, Hartford, Montreal, Philadelphia and Boston, and is now a member of the Hockey Night in Canada team; and Todd Warriner, a journeyman forward, who played more than 450 NHL games with six teams.
Each week, the pairs team up to perform a live routine on Sunday evenings, with viewers voting for their top duo. The following night, the two lowest-ranking teams return for a skate-off, with the loser, as determined by a panel of judges, eliminated.
Eliminated skaters receive $25,000 for their charity.
Among the Canadian skaters are 10-Canadian dance champion Shae-Lynn Bourne; five-time Canadian pairs champ Isabelle Brassuer; and two-time Olympians Christine Hough-Sweeney and Anabelle Langlois.
Jamie Sale, a gold medallist from the 2002 Olympics with partner David Pelletier, is returning to defend her Battle of the Blades crown.
Among the world skaters taking part include four-time world champion Ekaterina Gordeeva of Russia and fellow Russian Violetta Afanasieva, a winner of the Extreme Ice Skating World Championship with her partner and husband, Peter Dack of Canada.
Kyoko Ina, a five-time U.S. champion, who competed in three Olympic Games, rounds out the roster of eight figure skaters.

by Mordecai Richler
For years if any magazine editor in New York wanted an article about anything in Canada, the first writer he called was Mordecai Richler, author of The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz and nine other books. This volume consists mainly of the articles that resulted from those calls. Perhaps because he lived in London for 20 years before he returned to Canada in 1972, Richler's view of his homeland is anything but provincial, and he is certainly versatile. He can make the Frenchification of Montreal, his hometown, almost comprehensible to an outsider. An essay titled "Pages From a Western Journal" is a model of travel writing—a crisp diary about a trip through Western Canada that is a marvel of economy and image making. In "Bedlam in Bytown" the author describes a Western Day parade in Ottawa thus: "Tatty. Forlorn. Paunchy men on horseback. Broadbottomed girls wearing glasses with shell half-frames flinging their Stetsons in the air, crying yah-hoo and yippee to no visible effect..." Yes, Richler is funny, but he can also be touching, especially in the autobiographical pieces, such as his moving tribute, "My Father's Life." This book could be a crash course in getting to know Canada. It is also splendid entertainment. (Knopf, $16.95)

WePaint is a whole-body interactive game where the goal is to create a painting by collaborating between two players. The players have restricted palettes and functionality and they cant paint effectively without collaboration. We designed the game to engage children in a fun activity where they learn to share, take turns, plan, and reach decisions as a team. We are currently evaluating the game with young children. I am currently directing the creation and evaluation of WePaint, a work that started in January 2010. I am directing the work of master student Gregory Garrett.

Jonathan Keeth is my Gear Guy at Beyond Limits Magazine but today, in this guest post for Ann's Running Commentary, he has stepped outside his comfort zone to make a confession. Today he confesses his addiction to food and his desire to end that addiction. This was not an easy post for Jonathan to write. But by sharing it, Jonathan hopes to reach others who struggle like he does so they can tackle this addiction together. Thank you Jonathan for sharing your story here.
Written by Jonathan Keeth
If you have not heard it yet, you owe it to yourself to listen to Ann's podcast from April 29, 2013 titled, "My Thoughts on Weight Loss and Running". In it, she talks about the tendency some people have to take the "rules" of weight loss too far and completely sever ties with entire food groups. She also talks quite honestly and encouragingly about her own recent struggles with weight and keeping herself at racing weight to qualify for Boston. I really appreciated the frank and honest discussion about keeping some sanity about food as she exercised discipline to lose weight.
I would like to share my story though to present another perspective of weight loss. I completely agree with everything Ann said in her podcast, but for me and the amount of weight I need to lose (100 lbs), it is clear that I am dealing with a bit more than just needing to exercise discipline. I come from a long line of addictive personalities and I believe I have inherited the same trait. My addiction though is more socially acceptable because I am addicted to food. For clarification, I have not been diagnosed by a professional, and my reference to a food addiction is in no way meant to make light of any situation or illness that anyone might be battling with. I genuinely believe that I am struggling with an addiction to food.
I believe I am dealing with an addiction because there are certain foods that I simply cannot stop eating once I have started. I cannot stop with just a slice or two of pizza. Instead, I have to finish off the entire pie once my family has eaten as much as they want to. I cannot stop with just a serving of chips. Instead, I finish off the entire bag. I volunteer to run errands so I can hit the drive through for a burger and a large soda, immediately after I have enjoyed a meal that my wife made for our family. While these actions may not qualify as a true addiction, they are not the behaviors of someone who has a lot of discipline when it comes to food.
Here is where I have to respectfully diverge Ann. Not because I disagree with her thoughts, but because I simply do not have the discipline to make the changes needed to lose the weight I have to lose. To be successful, I have to take the hardline stance that Ann speaks against. I will be treating my food addiction the same way an alcoholic would overcome their addiction. I will create a list of foods that cause me to lose control over my eating and I have to stop eating those things. I am also in accountability with several other people who will check in with me on my progress on a regular basis to see my progress and keep me honest about what I am eating.
I have attempted weight loss before and I have not been successful. I don't mean that I am a yo-yo dieter, I mean that I have never been successful at losing more than 15 pounds on any given attempt. I set myself up to succeed during the first week, but when it came time to have my first "cheat day," I never went back to the disciplined eating that I started the week before. If I want to see true and lasting change in my life, I need to sever ties with those foods that I currently allow to have control of me and overwrite the habits that told me I needed to eat those fries to feel better.
So, if I agree with Ann, why take the time to tell you about what I am doing to lose weight? I am a part of another group of listeners who do not have the discipline to stop at one serving of Triscuits. I would eat the whole box. I want to help anyone else with me in that group with me to know there is hope to achieve lasting change if they are ready to stop playing with their habits and change the patterns that are keeping them captive to food.
If anyone would like to talk about their successes, or have another partner to help them on their weight loss journey, please leave a comment below. You can also contact me via email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Jonathan Keeth is a father of two and the husband to a beautiful and patient wife who tolerates his obsession with running shoes and gear. Jonathan is the author of odyssey100.com where he blogs about his two great goals, training for his first 100 mile race and losing 100 lbs so he never has to register for a race in the hippo class again.

New Year's Kiss
A friend once told me that her New Year's resolution was to be kissed as the clock struck twelve on the first day of the New Year. So here are some great and different places that I would suggest for that magical kiss with that special someone:
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Famous for its Carnival, Rio is also great destination any other time of year. This is one of the few times of the year that the locals join the tourists for a great time! This celebration is on par with their Carnival and the fireworks are absolutely amazing. Dress up in white and share that New Years kiss on the beaches of Rio! And you cannot come all the way to Brazil without experiencing its rainforests, can you?
Venice, Italy
This small city in Italy is perfect for a New Year's kiss. On the last night of the year, many restaurants in Venice have feasts starting from 9p.m. and lasting until midnight, with great food and cheap wine. Also, in St. Mark's Square there is a huge celebration with music, fireworks and a huge group kiss at midnight. And nothing spells romantic like a gondola ride through the canals of Venice!
Cape Town, South Africa
Welcome the New Year dancing in Cape Town! Some of the hottest parties and celebrations are held in this seaside city, and you can have your special New Years Kiss while on the beach. You of course will have to try the wine while in South Africa, for it rivals even Italy for quality!
Hong Kong, China
Although the Chinese Lunar New Year does not coincide with December 31st, there are still celebrations held in Hong Kong! You will not be at a loss to find a popping party the night of. Top the Hong Kong experience off with your New Years kiss while LED lights count down the last 60 seconds of the old year! You cannot forget the wonderful beauty outside Hong Kong either, for China is home to some of the most breathtaking sights.
Sydney, Australia
Although not as typically romantic as European cities, Sydney has a lot to offer. Enjoy your New Year's kiss as some of the first New Year's fireworks in the world explode in the night sky amid music! The best part of being in Sydney at the end of the year is that it is not wintertime; you will be coming in the height of summer. You can spend your days at the beach, dolphin spotting and enjoying the Australian lifestyle!

An Iranian convert to Christianity seeking asylum in Sweden is once again facing deportation to Iran, according to his pastor. If he's sent back to Iran, the convert, Reza Jebbari, could be imprisoned or even put to death for leaving Islam.CBN News first reported on Jebbari's case last month when Swedish authorities rejected his application for asylum and ordered him deported. A few days later, a Migration Board official announced they were halting the deportation process and granting Jebbari another hearing. Now, Jebbari's pastor, Cai Berger, tells CBN News that another migration official has denied the request for asylum and police are seeking to take Jebbari into custody and begin the deportation process.Jebbari's lawyer has already filed another appeal, but Berger says they are puzzled at the government's persistence in its attempts to deport the Christian convert."It would seem that we are in a tight spot again and, quite frankly, we're at a loss as to why the Migration services are so determined to deport [him]," Berger wrote CBN News in an email. "People with weaker cases get permission to stay in Sweden, but not him."CBN News has yet to receive a reply to an email to the Swedish Migration Board's press office requesting an explanation for the decision to deny asylum.Christians in Iran, especially those who convert from Islam, are harshly persecuted. CBN News reportedly extensively on the case of Iranian Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani, who was imprisoned for three years and sentenced to die for apostasy. Nadarkhani was finally released earlier this year after an international outcry put pressure on the Iranian regime.

We have used old wooden rolling desk chairs as seating around our dining room table for about ten years now. Just writing that down makes me a dinosaur. One of these chairs belonged to my mom, one came from a garage sale, another from craigslist, and the last was a trade. Each one has it's own set of quirks, and nearly all of them have had their wheels replaced at one point or another. If enough people sit and roll around in a chair with casters, sooner or later there are little tiny ball bearings all over the floor and your seat is stuck like a shopping cart outside of Winco.
Moving on. One of these chairs, the one that was my moms, has been particularly difficult in the wheel department. No matter what I have done, the casters either break quickly, or fall out every time you look at them. I bought some 'good' wheels for this chair a couple years ago, and they haven't broken, but they drop out of their sockets daily. If you have ever been to my house, sat down and attempted to scoot closer to the table in this chair, you know exactly what happens. A wheel falls out as you tip precariously to one side, spilling coffee all over your lap.
Replacing the faulty wheel just encourages another one to fall out, like a miserable game of Whac-A-Mole. I usually try to sit in that chair myself, and so avoid any guest catastrophes. Yesterday I had enough. {The sense of impending doom I felt after skimming the daily news gave me some extra motivation to busy myself in something I could control, and that resulted in the irresistible compulsion to fix the wheels on the trick chair}
Want to know how I did it? In true Macguyver style, I just tore an index card that was at arms reach into quarters, and wrapped one piece around each wheel peg. It worked so well that I couldn't even pull them back out again to photograph for you. It took about thirty seconds. YEARS have passed with cursing and wobbling, when all it took was some scrap paper and a government shutdown.
Looking for a good cookie recipe, Alice

IFPRI Releases Report on Agriculture Adaptation Strategies in African Countries
July 2010: The International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) has released a discussion paper titled "Strategies for Adapting to Climate Change in Rural Sub-Saharan Africa."
The paper examines agricultural adaptation strategies in ten Sub-Saharan African countries based on a review of Poverty Reduction Strategy Programmes (PRSPs), National Adaptation Plans for Agriculture (NAPAs), and national and international databases. The report mentions 26 strategies, including: the development and promotion of drought tolerant crops; the exploitation of renewable resources; small and large rainwater harvesting; restoration of degraded land; and community based management of resources. The paper highlights strategies that warrant greater collaboration between countries, such as the conservation of genetic materials, the development of drought-tolerant species, and soil conservation practices. The report also discusses country positions in the UNFCCC climate negotiations.
The ten countries included in the study (Burundi, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Kenya, Madagascar, Rwanda, Sudan, Tanzania and Uganda) are members of the Association for Strengthening Agricultural Research in Eastern and Central Africa. IFPRI is a member of the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR). [IFPRI Report on Agricultural Adaptation]

Ryan Nelsen departure to FC Toronto and Nedum Onouha's injury meant that the R's were without two of their first choice back-four that held City goalless last
Wednesday heading into this weekend's game against Norwich at Loftus Road but it would seem that it made little difference to their resolve.
These absences however ment that, Harry Redknapp's could hand new signing Chris Samba an earlier debut than expected with Fabio slotting in alongside Clint Hill and Armand Traore.
Samba was a key influence in front of the magnificent Julio Cesar who has been in superb form since making to the move to the Premier League.
Fantasy interest in the Rangers back line is certainly growing with new boy Samba emerging as an early fantasy favourite ahead of a favourable upcoming schedule for Harry's side that will see them face off against Swansea, Southampton, Sunderland and Aston Villa in the next five.

A HEALTHY 15-YEAR-OLD white female presented with three asymptomatic lesions on her left breast that had been present since birth. The lesions were initially pink maculae that developed into pink nodules after puberty. On physical examination she had two soft, erythematous nodules with atrophic skin and overlying telangiectasia above her left breast. One ill-defined, indurated, violaceous plaque was present above the two soft nodules (Figure 1). There was no hepatosplenomegaly or lymphadenopathy. No other similar cutaneous lesions were identified in this patient. Laboratory investigation revealed a normal complete blood cell count and white blood cell differential. Total cholesterol was mildly elevated at 4.76 mmol/L (184 mg/dL) (normal, 1.94-4.37 mmol/L [75-169 mg/dL]). The biopsy results of one of the nodules are shown in Figure 2.
