A discredited journalist and a mysterious computer hacker discover that even the wealthiest families have skeletons in their closets while working to solve the mystery of a 40-year-old murder. Inspired by late author Stieg Larsson's successful trilogy of books, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo gets under way as Mikael Blomkvist and Lisbeth Salander are briefed in the disappearance of Harriet Vanger, whose uncle suspects she may have been killed by a member of their own family. The deeper Mikael and Lisbeth dig for the truth, however, the greater the risk of being buried alive by members of the family who will go to great lengths to keep their secrets tightly sealed. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

By José Sulaimán: Let me start this Hook with my thoughts on myself, as I want to clarify my way of being.
I live today as if I was to die tomorrow. With the intensity of my youth. With passion. With pride and dignity against those who try to step on our principles, personal, and those of boxing, from where the poorest athletes come and who have not had opportunities for an education.
The mystery of life is interesting and nostalgic. As a kid, I remember and have never forgotten to have read in a paper, "A 45 year old man found dead in a car accident." A 45 year old man!! And to think that last week, an almost 42 year old Shane Mosley gave an exhibition of speed and accuracy in a win over a tough Pablo Cano. In 1947, a 45 year old man was an old man. Today in 2013, a 42 year old man is a boxing champion. This gives me the feeling of the immensity of time. It flies faster than the wind. Still, we have to live with creative intensity to leave a mark of yourself and of our generation, even when at the coming of time it will go into oblivion.
Our passing through boxing has been one of reform, as everything in life. However, in 1975 we found our sport as still in the 19th Century in safety matters. Before, our stoves were of stone and wood. Today they are microwaves. Boxing yesteryear was savage. Fans in Mexico used to shout, "more blood, more blood." Today who does it is a savage. So we saw in Poland a promotion by a business man, and a boxing commission allowing it, presenting Oliver McCall against a young Polish boxer, when McCall was medically suspended by ABC, so reported by the WBC, with the EBU asking the commission not to allow it. It is not possible that we continue allowing those irresponsible promotional acts, as if we were still living at the times of the cavemen.
This is, unfortunately, what still is happening in the world of boxing. Serious disrespect for safety forced the WBC to suspend the country of Indonesia, where constant fatal accidents in the ring happen. All of the countries of the OPBF and ABCO have absolutely respected it. The WBC has a quarter century of medical research with countless positive findings, but we have still boxing commissions which do not follow the implemented safety measures. That is a criminal shadow that a very few irresponsible people put on the whole sport of boxing.
One other irresponsible blow against safety is being taken by AIBA, without thorough world-wide medical research being done. The taking off of the head guards of amateur boxers might be very dangerous. An intense research should have been done for that before taking that irresponsible step. With all due respect to the chairman of their medical committee, it is a very important and delicate step. There will be many head butts. There will be many cuts on the eyebrows of boxers and other parts of the face, and even on the top of the head. With the boxers having to box three, four, or five times in 15 days, I wonder how will they deal with it. Will doctors allow boxers with a cut, as small as they might be, still go into the ring?
Mr. Wu's rush to go into similarities to professional boxing only for the assumed more attraction – money-money again – for TV made him take that irresponsible step. The boxing shirts are also off. That is the problem with people who know nothing or little about boxing.
Among many others, the reason explained above, and the monopoly to be established with the apparent support of Mr. Jacques Rogge, President of the IOC, of having pro boxers only of their AIBA, but absolutely no other boxer from Africa, Latin America, Asia, and the poor countries of Europe, as well as of the whole wide world, as well as trying to take all promoters of the industry out, are the reasons why the WBC is strongly opposing to their taking boxing into their hands as if they were the owners.
The IOC might be a private committee, but it was created for the world since more than 500 years before Christ, and not only for those that lead it today. If many people, boxers, nations, or commissions do not want to speak, if they are afraid of possible consequences, if they prefer what is today, but not of what will be tomorrow, the WBC will not. We will go into the ring and stay there until the time that justice and human equality is complied with.
Thank you for reading my thoughts.

To assess the risk of developing Type-1 diabetes among children who were exposed to maternal bereavement during the prenatal or 1-year preconception period.
We identified N=1,548,746 singleton births born in Denmark between January 1st 1979 through December 31st 2004, and their next of kin. Altogether, 39,857 children were exposed to bereavement during their prenatal life. The main outcome of interest was hospitalization for type-1 diabetes (ICD 8: 249; ICD 10: E10).
We found the strongest association for type-1 diabetes among children exposed to traumatic father or sibling deaths (aIRR: 2.03, 1.22–3.38); the association was mainly seen for girls (aIRR: 2.91, 1.61–5.26).
We found evidence to suggest that female fetuses exposed to severe prenatal stress are at increased risk for developing type-1 diabetes.
Diabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases among children; the increase in frequency of type-1 diabetes in youth has been among the most concerning aspects of the evolving epidemic. Incidence of type-1 diabetes varies with age, for boys it peaks at 12–13 years, and girls around 9–12 years [1]. A recent analysis conducted in 17 European countries suggests that cases of type-1 diabetes in children will double between 2005 and 2020, and that prevalent cases younger than 15 years will increase by 70%. Denmark has one of the highest reported incidences of type-1 diabetes in Europe (17.4 per 100,000), a rate predicted to increase annually by 3.2% [2].
Certain genetic factors have been associated with type-1 diabetes; but the observed changes in incidence over time cannot be attributable to susceptible genes alone, only in combination with environmental factors. Functions of isolated genes include insulin production and metabolism, protection from β-cell apoptosis, immunity and other unknown factors [3]. The role of inflammation in insulitis as a biological response to infection and β-cell loss has been studied in animal models. This process is not clearly understood but it must be induced early in life, where some combination of genetic and environmental factors operate to activate both endogenous and exogenous ligands of pattern-recognition receptors that induce islet inflammation and death of pancreatic β-cells. This is followed by a second process where insulitis is amplified through interplay between immune cells and β-cells, and third process where inflammatory mediators contribute to prolonged suppression and death of β-cells, or promotion, survival and proliferation of β cells [4].
The link between environmental and lifestyle factors such an increased weight and height [5], caesarean section deliveries [6] and early childhood infections [7], [8] and type-1 diabetes have all been assessed. Less is known about factors during pregnancy that may affect risk of type-1 diabetes, however high birth weight has been found to be associated with a slightly elevated risk for type-1 diabetes in a number of reports and also in a recent meta analysis [9]. The high incidence of type-1 diabetes in Denmark, and detailed national registers provides a unique opportunity for diabetes research. We hypothesized that exposure to stressful life events related to bereavement in the prenatal period, may increase the risk of type-1 diabetes. Bereavement was our indicator of stress since it almost uniformly induces severe stress and glucocorticoid production [10]–[12], and can be accurately ascertained using Danish Civil Registration system. The aim of this paper is to assess the risk of type-1 diabetes among children whose mothers were exposed to bereavement during the pre-natal or preconception period using a nationwide Danish cohort.
Our results are based on a population based follow-up study on Danish national registers. We used data from the Danish Civil Registration System (CRS) to identify singleton births in Denmark born January 1st 1979 through December 31st 2004, N=1,548,746 (see figure 1 for a flow chart of missing variables) and their next of kin (mother, father, siblings, mother's parents, and mother's siblings). All live born children and new residents in Denmark are assigned a unique civil personal registration (CPR) number, allowing accurate linkage of individual level data between registries.
Information on birth outcomes, such as gestational age at birth and birth weight, were obtained from the Danish Medical Birth Registry which has been computerized since 1973. Annual information on maternal education, residence, and income was retrieved from the Fertility Database at Statistics Denmark, available since 1979. The date of conception was estimated by the date of birth minus gestational age, and the prenatal exposure period included from 12 months before conception until the birth of the child. We categorized children as exposed to bereavement during prenatal life if their mothers lost a child, husband, sibling or parent during the prenatal period, ascertained via the death registry; all the remaining children were included in the unexposed cohort. Cohort members were followed from birth until first diagnosis of diabetes, death, emigration, or December 31st 2004, whichever came first.
Diabetic status of children and their parents was ascertained from the National Hospital Registers, which holds information on all discharges from Danish hospitals since 1977; outpatients have been included in the register since 1995. Diagnostic information was based on the Danish version of the International Classification of Disease (ICD) 8th revision, from 1979 to 1993 (249) and 10th revision, from 1994 onwards (E10). We also looked for additional cases from the Pharmaco-epidemiological Prescription Database, in operation since 1995, using the ATC codes for insulin analog drugs (A10A), though there was almost 100% overlap with these cases and those found in the hospital register. If an individual has a diagnosis for both type-1 and type-2 diabetes, they were classified as type-1 since the later is more often misclassified than the former. Also, type-1 diabetes is a more serious disease than type-2 and therefore probably better diagnosed.
We estimated incidence rate ratios (IRRs) from birth using log-linear poisson regression models and used person-years as the offset variable. The analysis was performed using PROC GENMOD in SAS version 9.1.3. Unadjusted and adjusted models were generated. Adjusted estimates of IRRs (aIRR) included maternal age (≤18, 19–34, 35–40, 41+); residence (Copenhagen, cities with over 100,000 inhabitants, and other); income (1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quartile); maternal education (primary, secondary, high); parental diabetes status (any hospitalization diabetes ICD code); marital status (married, not married); gestational age at birth (<32 weeks, 32–36 weeks, 37+ weeks); birth weight (<1500 grams, 1500–2500 grams, 2500+ grams); sibling order (1,2,3,4+); calendar year (1979–1989, 1990–1999, 2000–2004) and offspring's sex (male, female). Age, residence, calendar period, maternal education, maternal income and parental marital status were treated as time-dependent variables as they were extracted from the birth year of the offspring.
To examine the association between timing of the bereavement and diabetes, we categorized exposed children by prenatal trimesters. To examine the relationship between type of bereavement and diabetes, we categorized exposed children by relationship to the deceased. We further categorized the cause of death by traumatic death (unexpected causes: ICD-8 codes 7950–7959, ICD-10 codes R95–R97; motor vehicle accidents: ICD-8 codes 8100–8230, ICD-10 codes V01–V89; suicide: ICD-8 codes 950–959, ICD-10 codes X60–X84; and other accidents and violence: ICD-8 codes 800–807, ICD-10 codes V90–V99, W00–X59, X85–Y89); and death from other causes. This study was approved by the Institutional Review Board at the University of California at Los Angeles. Individual written consent was not obtained from study participants as there was no record linking the subjects to identifying information.
We identified 39,587 children exposed to bereavement during or before their prenatal life. Children in our study were followed between 2 to 27 years. Exposed and unexposed children were comparable on most background characteristics although mother's of bereaved children were slightly older and had more children, something we expected to see among those who had lost a child (see table 1).
We found that children exposed to bereavement during their prenatal life were more likely to be hospitalized with a type-1 diabetes diagnosis later in life (see table 2). This association was more pronounced when deaths were caused by a traumatic event and most significant for bereavement caused by death of a father or sibling (aIRR: 2.03, 1.22–3.38); the association was mainly seen for girls (aIRR: 2.91, 1.61–5.26). We did not detect significant effect measure modification for timing of exposure. We did attempt a matched sibling-pair analysis but the number of discordant type-1 diabetes pairs were too small to provide significant data for meaningful analysis.
To the best of our knowledge, this is the first population based study that has examined the link between prenatal stress exposure and diabetes in the offspring of humans. We found evidence to suggest that female fetuses exposed to maternal bereavement during the preconception and the prenatal period are at an increased risk for developing type-1 diabetes. We observed higher IRRs for traumatic deaths, especially those of a father or sibling. Since we do not have data on all stress exposures or biomarkers of stress hormones we cannot quantify the exposure contrast between the exposed and unexposed. However, we believe that the exposure contrast between the two groups is substantial as bereavement due to death of close family member is one of life's most stressful events. The difference seen for girls and boys could be due to chance or could be related to modification by sex hormones during prenatal life.
The main strengths of our study are the large cohort size, long follow-up time and high quality of data. Completeness of type-1 diabetes has been demonstrated in previous studies [13]. This study was made possible due to the vast information available in the Danish National Registers. Information in the CRS has been made available for research purposes by Danish legislation [14]. Outpatient data has been collected since 1995, though type-1 diabetes cases are most likely to be found via the in-patient hospital register. This is due to the disease having a sudden and aggressive onset and needing a thorough medical investigation. Today parental links for individuals born in Denmark since 1969 are considered accurate; Danish legislation requires all legal address changes be submitted to the CRS shortly after the move [15]. The main limitation of our study is the lack of inclusion of other sources of stressors and baseline measures of biological stress responses and measures of allostatic load. To get these data longitudinal biological sampling would be needed but it will at present be impossible for ethical and economic reasons. Another limitation in our study is the possibility of uncontrolled confounding. While we were able to control for sociodemographic factors such as education and income, as well as parents' history of diabetes, it is possible that other factors may confound the relationship between prenatal bereavement and development of type-1 diabetes. Lifestyle and background factors such as socioeconomic status may be partially controlled, but factors possibly related to type-1 diabetes such as smoking, maternal or child BMI may not. However, it is unclear clear why these factors should be related to bereavement, and our data indicate that in this population death of a close family member affect all segments of the population equally.
The etiology of type-1 diabetes and the timing of a causal window is not clearly understood, though the disease is postulated to have a multiple stages. It is possible that bereavement is one of the environmental factors that when combined with a genetic factor initiates the disease process shortly after conception. Type-1 diabetes is a rare disease in childhood and if stress exposure can cause the disease one would not expect common stressors to play a role. The disease could on the other hand be caused by a common cause if that cause produces susceptibility for a second hit later in life; should this be the case one would expect low to moderate association for the prenatal exposure if data were not stratified on the second set of causes. The association between prenatal bereavement and type-1 diabetes was observed mainly among female children, but not among male children, exposed to traumatic father or sibling deaths. Previous studies have demonstrated important sex differences in glucocorticoid programming of the HPA axis and metabolic physiology, but how these differences contribute to differential risk for type-1 diabetes is unknown [16], [17].
This study supports the view that type-1 diabetes may have causes that operate in fetal life. We have focused on stress as one of many possible exposures but are aware that stress may just be an upstream cause of other factors of importance such as infections, or changes in dietary habits. Stress exposure may impact the immune system and thus increase the susceptibility of infections. If stress is not a direct cause of diabetes it would explain the rather weak association we find.
While one cannot avoid bereavement as a potential stressor during pregnancy one may be able to avoid other sources of stress, or mitigate the effects via therapy. This study and other studies suggest that exposure to severe stress during the critical period that surrounds pregnancy may have life-long effects on the offspring. We did not find a strong link between bereavement and diabetes when the death was non-traumatic or that of a grandparent or maternal sibling, suggesting that only the most severe stress exposures have a programming effect. A small sample human study with a positive finding has been published on markers of glucose metabolism also suggested a link between stress and diabetes [18].
The findings of this study may have public health implications especially in settings where sources of intense stress are increasing, such as in areas of political unrest, migration, conflict or environmental disasters. Future research should consist include a large enough sample size to assess affects of timing of exposure and also corroborate the findings in this study.

The clip Singing in the bar from Pillow Talk (1959) There's our man. Yes, I know him. I can handle it from here. Need a light, cowboy? When are you leaving for the range? That's up to you. You've got 2 minutes. Oo this nice and clean, so no one's embarrassed. When she gets back, you'll say goodbye. You'll put her in a cab. And we'll go home and you'll pack. Where am I going? Connecticut. My summer house is perfect for writing songs. No phone and 20 miles to the nearest girl. Looks like I haven't much choice. Sure looks like it. Remember, I'll be watching you. Ma'am. Hello. I'm sure going to miss you, leaving New York and all. You're leaving? Yeah. When? Tonight. I have to mosey up to Connecticut. Oidn't I tell you? No. No. This friend of mine, a business associate, has a house up there and he nearly forced me to use it. I just couldn't refuse him. Why must you...? I may be buying the place... I kind of want to get the feel of it.

This review is from: SAMSUNG B300 Series S23B300B Black 23" 5ms GTG Widescreen LED Backlight LCD Monitor 250 cd/m2 Mega Infinity DCR(1000:1)
Pros: Very crisp display and nice colors after a bit of fiddling with settings.
Cons: For the price? Nothing worth docking an egg for.
The back panel seems a tad flimsy and actually presses into the case when attaching a cable, but a little finesse and wiggling and there are no issues.
Buttons are a tad oversensitive, making configuration process bothersome if your fingers are large.
This review is from: Rosewill RK-9100 - Illuminated Mechanical Gaming Keyboard with Cherry MX Blue Switches
Pros: Heavy enough so it doesn't go sliding around.
The clacking sound is amazing, isn't as loud as you'd expect with all the complaints.
Gaming doesn't seem to be an issue either, but I'm not having to spam key presses at absurd rates either.
Cons: From a purely OCD viewpoint, the Lock keys receive no lighting unless they're active. It would have been nice for them to default to blue when disabled, green when enabled.

PHOENIX (AP) - Tom Gugliotta was back home Sunday, celebrating his 30th birthday after his frightening seizure on the Phoenix Suns' team bus in Portland.
"Man, this really puts life in perspective," Gugliotta told The Arizona Republic in an interview on his flight to Phoenix on Saturday night.
Gugliotta said he remembers nothing of the seizure Friday night, only that he woke up about 4 a.m. Saturday in Legacy Emanuel Hospital.
"At first I wondered where I was," he said. "I thought I was in my own bed."
Then he realized he had a tube in his mouth and needles in both arms. Several hours of tests followed, including a CAT scan, EKGs and a spinal tap.
"They thought maybe it was spinal meningitis," Gugliotta said.
The tests showed nothing abnormal.
He was released from the hospital Saturday, and further tests are planned in Phoenix.
"It could have happened because of dehydration, or something like that," Gugliotta said. "Nobody is sure. I had been feeling a little bit under the weather, and my diet hasn't been all that good. Maybe that was it."
Team doctor Richard Emerson said the cause of such episodes sometimes are never discovered, and the seizures never occur again.
Gugliotta had 17 points and 14 rebounds in 39 minutes Friday night as the Suns beat the Portland Trail Blazers 110-102.
He had boarded the team bus in the loading bay at the Rose Garden and was talking on a cell phone to his wife, Nikki, in Phoenix when the seizure occurred.
"I could hear the phone crash, and then I could hear people screaming for an ambulance," she said. "It was terrifying."
She flew to Portland on Saturday. Also staying in Portland with Gugliotta was Phoenix assistant trainer Aaron Nelson, who waited all night outside Gugliotta's room.
"It was just a real scary situation," Nelson told the Republic. "Through it all, I just prayed that everybody would be all right."
Throughout the day, Gugliotta received phone calls from teammates and friends. One caller was Joe Kleine, a teammate last season and now with the Trail Blazers. Kleine collapsed a few years ago before a Suns game, and the cause was never determined.
"Joe said it happened to him the same way," Gugliotta said.
For the players and coaches, the ordeal was unsettling.
"He was on the bus struggling, and we were outside of the bus looking in the window and watching it," Suns coach Scott Skiles said. "When you see somebody that you know very well and is a teammate and a friend and he's got his head back and the doctor is trying to see if his pulse is there, it's very, very scary."

This review is from: XFX Double D FX-795A-TDKC Radeon HD 7950 Black Edition 3GB 384-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 CrossFireX Support Video Card - Retail
Pros: I waited until this card went down to $170 and grabbed one for BF3. After installing it and loading up BF3, I was able to play at ultra with no problems.
My system has a 4 year old i5 and
Also it comes with some sick games.
Cons: Price fluctuates, just wait for it to drop below $190 with a rebate BUT don't miss out on the NeverSettle bundle.
Other Thoughts: If I was still looking for a new card, I would just wait until the price drops below $190 and grab it.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Logitech G430 USB Connector Circumaural Surround Sound Gaming Headset
Pros: Great price
Confortable fit (ears fit completely inside)
I like that it came with the USB dongle
Cord comes with a sheath that makes it seem unrippable (like you might get when using regular headphone with a plastic sheath)
Volume knob is nice to have
Cons: I had to adjust them once in 3 hours because the top was starting to hurt the top of my head.
Other Thoughts: I'm not an audiophile so to me the sounds was an incredible improvement from using iphone headphones to play games. I've had true surround sounds headphones and I would say that these fall between a true 7.1 surround sound set and some higher grade stereo headphones. What i'm trying to say is that its not as directional as you may think however, when playing BF3 you can definitely tell where the vehicle is coming from or if someone is running up on you from behind.READ FULL REVIEW

For the uninitiated, SEO stands for search engine optimization. It's a marketing discipline that's used by top website owners to stay on top or move further up. For analogy, the search engine can be compared to a librarian, with the internet as the whole library. When a person asks the librarian to find books (which are the websites) that are related to a certain subject, the librarian sifts through all the books, all the while searching for words that the person has mentioned. Also while searching for words, the librarian will concurrently cross reference the book if the keyword found in it was relevant to the searched term or not. The context will also be checked so that the results won't deviate from the person's intended search. The librarian then ranks the results found and presents the stack of books with the most relevant result at the very top, and the least relevant at the bottom. The person would usually pick one or two from those books, which is what happens when internet users are presented with search engine results as well. It's a rarity that someone will bother checking the subsequent pages, or in the library's case the bottom part of the stack. Of course, this analogy is impractical and technically impossible even for the smallest of libraries. But it's just for analogy's sake. That's essentially how search engines work.
Websites who are not utilizing search engine optimization techniques are either ranked very low on search engine results or not included in the ranking at all. Even masterfully designed websites are not spared when it comes to SEO. Website owners should know that search engine optimization is what's going to be facilitating the creation of revenue through bringing in huge volumes of internet users which are called traffic. Traffic is the most sought after commodity on the internet since it's where the income is generated by websites, clicks on advertisements, direct business transactions, affiliate referrals, and a lot of other means. Without internet users visiting the website, it will just be some proverbial book wasting a space inside the library.
Oftentimes, website owners have other matters to attend to. So even though they do know the relevance of search engine optimization, they can't find the time to effectively research on it. Hence, people turn to SEO experts to get the job done. San jose seo services are top-notch with very experiences people behind it. Website owners usually turn to them to push their website higher up on the search results page.

Almayer's Follyby Joseph Conrad
Kaspar Almayer is a Dutch merchant taken under the wing of the wealthy Captain Lingard. Hoping to one day inherit Captain Lingard's wealth, Almayer marries his daughter. The marriage is loveless, Captain Lingard loses much of his fortune searching for a hidden treasure, and Almayer's ventures continually fail. The rest of the novel concerns Almayer's conflicting desires: his love for his daughter and his desire for money and self-redemption.
Almayer's Folly: A Story of an Eastern Riverby Joseph Conrad
This is a decidedly powerful story of an uncommon type, and breaks fresh ground in fiction.... All the leading characters in the book--Almayer, his wife, his daughter, and Dain, the daughter's native lover--are well drawn, and the parting between father and daughter has a pathetic naturalness about it, unspoiled by straining after effect. (Conrad's first novel.)
Almayer's Folly: A Story of an Eastern Riverby Joseph Conrad
Almayer's Folly is about a poor businessman who dreams of finding a hidden gold mine and becoming very wealthy. He is a white European, married to a native Malayan; they have one daughter named Nina. He fails to find the goldmine, and comes home saddened. <P> <P> Previously, he had heard that the British were to conquer the Pantai River, and he had built a large, lavish house near where he resided at the time, in order to welcome the invading country to the native land. However, the conquest never took place, and the house remained unfinished. Some passing Dutch seamen had called the house "Almayer's Folly". Now, Almayer continually goes out for long trips, but eventually he stops doing so and stays home with his hopeless daydreams of riches and splendor. His native wife loathes him for this. <P> <P> One day, a Malayan prince, Dain Maroola, came to see Almayer about trading, and while there he falls in love with Nina. Mrs. Almayer kept arranging meetings for Nina and Dain. She wanted them to marry so her daughter could stay native, because she was highly distrustful of the white men and their ways. Dain left but vowed to return to help Almayer find the gold mine. When he does return, he goes straight to Lakamba, a Malayan rajah, and told him that he found the gold mine and that some Dutchmen had captured his ship. The rajah tells him to kill Almayer before the Dutch arrive because he is not needed to find the gold now. The following morning, an unidentifiable native corpse is found floating in the river, wearing an ankle bracelet very similar to Dain's. Almayer was distraught because Dain was his only chance at finding the secret mine. (The corpse was actually of his slave, who had died when a canoe overturned. Mrs. Almayer suggested that Dain put his anklet and ring on the body.) <P> <P> Mrs. Almayer planned to smuggle Dain away from the Dutch, so he would not be arrested. She snuck Nina away from her father, who was drinking with the Dutch. When he awoke from his drunken stupor, a native slave girl told him where Nina had run away to, and Almayer tracked her to Dain's hiding place. Nina refused to go back to avoid the slurs of all the white society. During all this arguing, the slave girl had informed the Dutch of Dain's whereabouts. Almayer said that he could never forgive Nina but would help them escape by taking them to the mouth of the river, where a canoe would rescue them from the Dutch. After they had escaped, Almayer erased the lover's footprints, and went back to his house. Mrs. Almayer ran away to the rajah for protection, taking all Dain's dowry with her. All alone, Almayer broke all his furniture in his home office, piled it in the center of the room, and burned it, along with his entire house, to the ground. He spent the rest of his days in "[His] Folly", where he began smoking opium to forget his daughter. He eventually died there.
Almayer's Folly: A Story of an Eastern Riverby Joseph Conrad Nadine Gordimer
Kaspar Almayer is a Dutch merchant taken under the wing of the wealthy Captain Lingard. Hoping to one day inherit Captain Lingard's wealth Almayer marries his daughter. The marriage is loveless, Captain Lingard loses much of his fortune searching for a hidden treasure, and Almayer's ventures continually fail. The rest of the novel concerns Almayer's conflicting desires: his love for his daughter and his desire for money and self-redemption.
Amy Fosterby Joseph Conrad
The story of a dull-witted but compassionate English girl who falls in love with a strange man from Eastern Europe. This ignorant, wild, and romantic peasant from the Carpathian Mountains has been cast up by the sea, the only survivor from an emigrant ship bound for America. Unable to speak a word of English and totally mystified as to where he is--it might have been America or Hell, itself--he leads a wretched and hunted existence till the chance kindness of Amy Foster opens his eyes.
Amy Fosterby Joseph Conrad
In the nineteenth century, mass immigration changed the face of the world. Although we like to think of this cross-cultural pollination as being a positive trend in human history, the truth of the matter is not always clear. <P> <P> In Amy Foster, prose master Joseph Conrad takes on the dark side of immigration and the intermingling of vastly different cultures and worldviews.
The Arrow of Gold: A Story Between Two Notesby Joseph Conrad
Reflecting Conrad's genius for narrative that focuses on the quest for inner truths, "The Arrow of Gold" is an exploration of the dangerous appetites of men and of human vulnerability, as well as a profound meditation on the emotional boundary between people. Boasting a cast of extraordinary and eccentric personalities, including the heroine Dona Rita, this is a story of adventure on the high seas, of the revelation of love, of the crushing weight of loss, and of freedom found in the recklessness of unadorned sincerity.During the Carlist war of the early 1870s, a young sailor, the unnamed protagonist, joins the champions of Don Carlos de Bourbon, pretender to the throne of Spain. The Carlists use the eager youth's intense attraction to the sea to persuade him to run perilous enterprises for their cause, ventures he later learns have been financed by the beautiful mistress and heiress of a rich man's fortune. When he falls in love with her, he finds himself moved absolutely by this discovery, despite the fact that she is unable to return his love fully. In the end he is left alone with his first love, the sea, his brief time with the mysterious Dona Rita marking a tumultuous awakening to a life of passion, the desolation that hides in its shadow, and the possibility of rebirth in its wake.Although not as well known as his earlier novels "Lord Jim" and "Nostromo," "The Arrow of Gold" was critically acclaimed when it first appeared in 1919 and is still considered to be among the best of Conrad's later works.
Chanceby Joseph Conrad
A remarkable book, the story of Flora De Barral, daughter of the Great De Barral, a monumental swindler, and her love for the sea captain who married her. Marlow tells the story in his usual quiet manner which is so dramatic under the quiet, and shows Chance the master hand directing and interfering at any moment.
The Duelby Joseph Conrad
"Haven't you heard of the duel going on ever since 1801?"An exciting, swashbuckling thriller based on a true story about two of Napoleon's soldiers.Conrad's brilliantly ironic tale about two officers in Napoleon's Grand Army who, under a futile pretext, fought an on-going series of duels throughout the Napoleanic Wars. Over decades, on every occasion they chanced to meet, they fought. Both satiric and deeply sad, this masterful tale treats both the futility of war and the absurdity of false honor, war's necessary accessory. The Art of The Novella Series Too short to be a novel, too long to be a short story, the novella is generally unrecognized by academics and publishers. Nonetheless, it is a form beloved and practiced by literature's greatest writers. In the Art Of The Novella series, Melville House celebrates this renegade art form and its practitioners with titles that are, in many instances, presented in book form for the first time.From the Trade Paperback edition.
The End of the Tetherby Joseph Conrad
Conrad's aim was 'by the power of the written word, to make you hear, to make you feel . . . before all, to make you see' Heart of Darkness, his exploration of European colonialism in Africa and of elusive human values, embodies more profoundly than almost any other modern fiction the difficulty of 'seeing,' its relativity and shifting compromise. Portraying a young man's first sea-voyage to the East in Youth, an unenlightened maturity in Heart of Darkness, and the blind old age of Captain Whalley in The End of the Tether
El espejo del marby Joseph Conrad
Estos textos componen un vivísimo retrato de la relación entre el hombre y el mar en una época en que la llegada del vapor supuso el fin de la hegemonía de los barcos de vela. Considerado como el cruce entre un cantar de gesta sobre la navegación a vela y la biblia del oleaje, El espejo del mar es la insuperable reminiscencia de una forma de vida y una obra imprescindible para comprender a su autor.«Todo el libro es Conrad cien por cien, y, además, el mejor Conrad, el que sabía dibujar un hecho del mar con la más perfecta forma literaria, y el que sabía ilustrar un acontecimiento narrativo con la más acertada imagen marinera.»Juan Benet
Falkby Joseph Conrad
Joseph Conrad was a Polish novelist, writing in English, while living in England. Many critics regard him as one of the greatest novelists in the English language, despite his not having learned to speak English fluently until he was in his twenties (and then always with a strong Polish accent). He became a naturalized British subject in 1886. He wrote stories and novels, predominantly with a nautical setting, that depicted the heroism of faith before the imperatives of duty, social responsibility and honor.
Freya of the Seven Islesby Joseph Conrad
There is a degree of bliss too intense for elation.This little-known novella from one of the masters of the form is so unusual for Joseph Conrad's work in several respects, although not in its exotic maritime setting or its even more exotic prose--it is unusual in that it is one of his very few works to feature a woman as a leading character, and to take the form of a romance.Still, it's a Conradian romance: a sweeping saga set in the Indian Ocean basin, against a turbulent background of barely suppressed hostilities between Dutch and British merchant navies, told by one of Conrad's classically detached narrators. In the end, the unique perspective of the sharply etched character of Freya is one of Conrad's most piercing studies of how the lust for power can drive men to greatness--or its opposite. The Art of The Novella Series Too short to be a novel, too long to be a short story, the novella is generally unrecognized by academics and publishers. Nonetheless, it is a form beloved and practiced by literature's greatest writers. In the Art Of The Novella series, Melville House celebrates this renegade art form and its practitioners with titles that are, in many instances, presented in book form for the first time.
Gaspar Ruizby Joseph Conrad
An enthralling novel of Gaspar's inspirational rise from obscurity to light. Remarkable for its irony, it marvellously presents man's capacity for self-deception. Attention-grabbing!
Heart of Darknessby Joseph Conrad
The classic novel that inspired Apocalypse NowA European trading concern hires Marlow to pilot a boat up the Congo River in search of Kurtz--a first-class ivory agent and the manager of the company's highly profitable Inner Station--who is believed to be on his deathbed. With a handful of pilgrims as his passengers and a crew of cannibals, Marlow steams his way into the African interior. The terrifying discovery he makes at the end of his journey and the horrors he witnesses along the way have thrilled and disturbed readers for more than a century. A searing indictment of imperialism and a haunting exposé of mankind's savage nature, Heart of Darkness is Joseph Conrad's masterpiece. This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.
Heart of Darknessby Joseph Conrad
Loosely based on Conrad's firsthand experience of rescuing a company agent from a remote station in the heart of the Congo, the novel is considered a literary bridge between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
Heart of Darknessby Joseph Conrad
Dark allegory describes the narrator's journey up the Congo River and his meeting with, and fascination by, Mr. Kurtz, a mysterious personage who dominates the unruly inhabitants of the region. Masterly blend of adventure, character development, psychological penetration. Considered by many Conrad's finest, most enigmatic story.
Heart of Darknessby Joseph Conrad
Widely regarded as one of the greatest English novels, Heart of Darkness follows Charles Marlow on his journey down the Congo River and into the heart of Africa. The book moves fluidly between poignant psychological introspection and insidious horror as Marlow moves through an alien landscape. It has been the subject of considerable analysis and criticism for its treatment of British imperialism, particular with regards to colonialism and racism. It was the basis of the Vietnam war film Apocalypse Now, directed by Francis Ford Coppola and starring Martin Sheen, Marlon Brando, and Robert Duvall.

Heart of Darknessby Joseph Conrad Adam Hochschild Timothy Hayes
Excerpt: . . . to settle the matter to their satisfaction. Their headman, a young, broad-chested black, severely draped in dark-blue fringed cloths, with fierce nostrils and his hair all done up artfully in oily ringlets, stood near me. 'Aha ' I said, just for good fellowship's sake. 'Catch 'im, ' he snapped, with a bloodshot widening of his eyes and a flash of sharp teeth-'catch 'im. Give 'im to us. ' 'To you, eh?' I asked; 'what would you do with them?' 'Eat 'im ' he said curtly, and, leaning his elbow on the rail, looked out into the fog in a dignified and profoundly pensive attitude. I would no doubt have been properly horrified, had it not occurred to me that he and his chaps must be very hungry: that they must have been growing increasingly hungry for at least this month past. They had been engaged for six months (I don't think a single one of them had any clear idea of time, as we at the end of countless ages have. They still belonged to the beginnings of time-had no inherited experience to teach them as it were), and of course, as long as there was a piece of paper written over in accordance with some farcical law or other made down the river, it didn't enter anybody's head to trouble how they would live. Certainly they had brought with them some rotten hippo-meat, which couldn't have lasted very long, anyway, even if the pilgrims hadn't, in the midst of a shocking hullabaloo, thrown a considerable quantity of it overboard. It looked like a high-handed proceeding; but it was really a case of legitimate self-defense. You can't breathe dead hippo waking, sleeping, and eating, and at the same time keep your precarious grip on existence. Besides that, they had given them every week three pieces of brass wire, each about nine inches long; and the theory was they were to buy their provisions with that currency in river-side villages. You can see how that worked. There were either no villages, or the people were hostile, or the director, who like the rest of us. . .
Heart of Darknessby Joseph Conrad Adam Hochschild Mike Mignola Timothy Hayes
In a novella which remains highly controversial to this day, Conrad explores the relations between Africa and Europe. On the surface, this is a horrifying tale of colonial exploitation. The narrator, Marlowe journeys on business deep into the heart of Africa. But there he encounters Kurtz, an idealist apparently crazed and depraved by his power over the natives, and the meeting prompts Marlowe to reflect on the darkness at the heart of all men. This short but complex and often ambiguous story, which has been the basis of several films and plays, continues to provoke interpretation and discussion.Heart of Darkness grew out of a journey Joseph Conrad took up the Congo River; the verisimilitude that the great novelist thereby brought to his most famous tale everywhere enhances its dense and shattering power.Apparently a sailor's yarn, it is in fact a grim parody of the adventure story, in which the narrator, Marlow, travels deep into the heart of the Congo where he encounters the crazed idealist Kurtz and discovers that the relative values of the civilized and the primitive are not what they seem. Heart of Darkness is a model of economic storytelling, an indictment of the inner and outer turmoil caused by the European imperial misadventure, and a piercing account of the fragility of the human soul.(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)
Heart of Darkness and Other Talesby Joseph Conrad Cedric Watts
'Heart of Darkness' is set in an atmosphere of mystery and menace, and tells of Marlow's perilous journey up the Congo River to relieve his employer's agent, the renowned and formidable Mr Kurtz. What he sees on his journey and his eventual encounter with Kurtz horrify and perplex him, and call into question the very bases of civilization and human nature. Endlessly reinterpreted by critics and adapted for film, radio, and television, the story shows Conrad at his most intense and sophisticated. The other three tales in this volume depict corruption and obsession, and question racial assumptions. Set in the exotic surroundings of Africa, Malaysia and the east, they variously appraise the glamour, folly, and rapacity of imperial adventure. This revised edition uses the English first edition texts and has a new chronology and bibliography.

Jrue Holiday opened the regular season Wednesday as the 76ers' starting point guard, enduring the kind of forgettable night that only statistics can illustrate: six points (2-of-9 shooting) and five turnovers in 21 minutes.
Midway through the first quarter, coach Doug Collins yanked Holiday and replaced him with rookie swingman Evan Turner, who stole the show with a team-high 16 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists.
Holiday wound up playing fewer minutes than any Sixers guard in a 97-87 loss to the Miami Heat. To say the least, it was a disappointing start for the second-year player.
"Personally, I think I didn't play too well," Holiday said after Thursday's practice. "I forced too many things. I tried to make too many things happen."

Deadliest Catch Trawls 360, PC This April
Early contender for least-likely video game adaptation of the year.
If you've seen Deadliest Catch on the Discovery Channel, you're well aware of the show's insidiously addicting nature -- it's hard not to get caught up in the human drama as fishermen trawl for crab in insane weather conditions on the Bering Sea. But "human drama" and "crab trawling" don't exactly sound like the makings for an exciting video game, do they?
Tell that to Greenwave, a new video game publisher that today announced Deadliest Catch Alaskan Storm, an Xbox 360 and PC game based on the popular Discovery series. The game will have players choosing one of five real-life crab boats (including the Northwestern, Cornelia Marie and Sea Star, all featured on the show), or creating a crab boat of their own. The next task is hiring your boat crew from a pool of 25 real crab fishermen, and then it's off to trawl the briny depth for living gold!
For what it's worth, it sounds as though Greenwave is at least putting more energy behind Deadliest Catch than the usual licensed abomination. Authenticity is the key, and to that end members of the development crew were actually invited onto a boat to experience the real thing first-hand. The game will feature 34,000 miles of true-to-life Bering Sea coastline, modeled using the United States Geological Survey. Weather and fishing conditions will also be modeled on authentic data, and Deadliest Catch will be the first video game to feature United States Coast Guard vessels and helicopters. There will be a career mode spanning multiple fishing seasons, individual missions, and arcade mini-games like "Throw-the-Hook" and "Skiff Racing".
So, if an accurate simulation of crab trawling sounds like just the way you want to spend a quiet evening, hold out hope -- Deadliest Catch Alaskan Storm might actually turn out to be a legitimate option. And as long as we're getting games based on hit Discovery Channel shows, how about How It's Made? A neon sign-maker one day, lamp post metallurgist the next -- think of the potential gameplay variety!

I enjoy the show but...Posted: Jun 16, 2008 12:00AM PST by Delitahyral
...you would have to pay me in 19-year-old-breasts and eternal-life-juice to get me to play this game. Although, those Dreamcast fishing games from sega were SHOCKINGLY fun. As in, i was SHOCKED that it was even possible to make an enjoyable fishing game and i was doubly SHOCKED that i enjoyed them. But catching a ceolocanth (sp...?) is a bizzare thrill. I can't explain it. Mostly because it makes no sense. Back to P3:FES now. Sorry to interrupt.

sounds about as enjoyable as the last time i caught crabs
sounds coolPosted: Feb 27, 2008 12:00AM PST by monson21502
hope they let u pick ur crew off of live and if some1 dies they are off the ship 4 good. the team that survives or catches the most crabs win the online tourny.
Typical.Posted: Feb 27, 2008 12:00AM PST by jynxce
Oh, that's right. This game is coming to the 360 and PC so it must suck automatically. Only Wii is allowed to get away with charming, deep-sea non-games and that get spoken of in a positive light. If you guys are going to continue w/your push to downplay all that is 360 this year for no reason, at least stay consistent and as subtle as possible...
Could be interesting.Posted: Feb 27, 2008 12:00AM PST by !Wissy!
If they did it right it could work out but they probably won't. Race for the most would be cool and possibly like some RPG elements to it like being the captain and having to pick your crew and trying to keep they happy. Wait the more I think about it the more this is a bad bad idea.
waste of timePosted: Feb 27, 2008 12:00AM PST by sh0rtshift
unless this proves to have amazing gameplay and graphics no one is going to pick this up.
Love The ShowPosted: Feb 27, 2008 12:00AM PST by xfileagentjlj
I will try this game out, but not sure I would purchase it. If it had online multiplayer with a "race" to get the most crab, then that would be kinda cool.
oooh Good GodPosted: Feb 27, 2008 12:00AM PST by Video_Gamer_Boy
Why can't somethings just remain on tv/the big screen? Not everything is game quality.

"You are Asian? Yes you are definitely warm toned.."
Oh bologna… So as a neutral cool toned person of Asian descent, I wanted to touch upon this subject that honestly irks me quite a bit. Ok yes I know that there most Asians have a fair amount of yellow to their skin but that does not automatically mean that we are all warm! The color of our skin does not determine whether we are warm or cool but rather what our undertones are. AND there are cool yellows and warm yellows! Determining your undertones isn't always an easy task even for the trained eye ESPECIALLY for determining Asian skintones. Anything that is published to help with determining whether you are warm or cool is generally written for the rest of the world and you will often see that Asian = warm in most of these. What really helped me in determining my own undertones was pictures… I know that sounds odd but pictures helped me look at my own skin from another point of view. Looking at pictures of myself in natural light really helped me see the pink undertones in my skin that I couldn't see in the mirror. Even more helpful is pictures with other people. It is the same idea as putting a white paper next to your face which is common advice except you can compare your own skintones next to others.
Without getting to far into the subject, I just wanted to graze upon this topic because I do get quite irritated when people tell me that I am warm simply because they see that I am Asian. This was sort of a rant as well as a PSA for those of you who are of Asian descent that have been told that they were warm toned. You just might be warm but you also very well might be cool.
End rant. Go purple lipstick!
PS. This doesn't mean I will give up my orange lipsticks…. or any lipsticks for that matter.

I really like your idea of looking at skin tones in photographs, and in addition in comparison to others. I have always seen my skin as having a lot of yellow with warm tones. Something that I didn't realize until reading this is dramatically confirmed in photographs including others! "Neat"
Also, I too have noticed that, without fail, "Asian" has been synonymous with "yellow + warm". Thank you for pointing out one of the fallacies in having "rules" of beauty!
