Girl Mans Up is a teen book by M-E Girard about Pen, a girl who just doesn't fit in the way people want her to. She has to navigate the normal challenges of high school, which include supporting a new friend through an accidental pregnancy, figuring out her changing relationships with her guy friends, and dating for the first time. In addition, she is living the truth of her gender identity and sexuality, while fighting the intense disapproval of her traditional Portuguese parents and others at school and in public. Pen's honest, funny, and thoughtful perspective drew me into this novel, and the other characters were just as interesting. Pick Pen for your new favorite LGBTQ/teen protagonist.
While preparing for a presentation on diversity
in children's literature, I came across Walking through a world of aromas by Ariel Andres Almada. What a delightful book. It tells the story of Annie, a young girl
that is vision-impaired. Annie learns to
overcome many obstacles and develops an
ability to "smell" a world that she cannot see. I am particularly impressed with the
powerful, yet mellow illustrations. This
is a definite must read for preschoolers and early elementary school readers.
The Vietnam war, family secrets, marriage, and father-son relationships: Perfume River addresses all of the above and more...and my curiosity is piqued. Among reviews of this recent addition to our collection, Booklist calls it "thoughtful, introspective fiction of the highest caliber," while Kirkus declares it "a story that's both complex and meaningful." Finally, Publisher's Weekly says "the book speaks eloquently of the way the past bleeds into the present, history reverberates through individual lives, and mortality challenges our perceptions of ourselves and others."
I'm adding it to my "to read" list. Maybe you will too...
Jeff Zentner's The Serpent King is that rarest of young adult books; one about normal teens in a small town wasteland, quietly struggling with sadness and pain and the realization that darkness is part of many of us, hidden just below the surface. It's a book that doesn't sugarcoat the problems the characters face, but also doesn't exploit them- you can understand the quiet desperation and the need to make a change, if only you could just figure out how.Lydia, Dillard and Travis are three friends united by their outsider statuses- Lydia for her outrageous fashion sense and smarts(not an easy thing in rural Tennessee, apparently), Travis by his love of a Game of Thrones-type fantasy world, Internet girlfriend, and ever-present wood staff, and Dill by his preacher father's horrific fall from grace and his family's long, dark past. The three form an unlikely triangle, with each holding up the others as they navigate the end of high school and the difficulties of rural life. Religion and faith play a large part in The Serpent King, but it's never trivialized or ridiculed, and it's a testament to first-time author Zentner's skills that he writes Dill's faith with sensitivity even in the face of powerful external forces. The Serpent King is a powerful debut novel, and I can't wait to see where Mr. Zentner goes from here.
Banned Books Week isn't over yet, so here's one more
interesting, if controversial book to add to our blog discussion.
It's no secret that I am a fan of graphic novels, and teen
books, so it's no surprise that I gravitated towards This One Summer written by Mariko Tamaki and illustrated by her
cousin Jillian Tamaki. This beautiful book was initially very well received,
winning the 2015 Printz Honor Award for best teen book, based on literary
merit, and the Caldecott award for its stunning illustrations.
However, earlier this year the book was banned at parents'
request in libraries in Minnesota and Florida for its profanity and mature
themes. Honestly, most of the upset was probably due to misunderstanding.
Because the book is a Caldecott winner, an honor usually bestowed upon children's
books, people probably read it, and took offense that the subject matter wasn't
suitable for let's say their eight year old child.
The book follows two twelve year old girls spending the
summer in a beach town. Standing right on the brink of adulthood, they encounter
and discuss subjects that are happening in their life, and the lives around
them. That includes puberty, crushes, sex, marital problems, miscarriage, and
unwanted pregnancy.
It's a shame that this book was banned, because it really is
a lovely book, and the graphic novel format really amplifies the work with the
idyllic setting being inked in shades of blue. It's a great novel, and I hope
you take the time to check it out.
Jesse Ball writes the kind of novels that, while amazing and among my favorites, are often difficult to recommend to a lot of people. Not because they are of sub-par literary quality in any way, but because they are often experimental, hypnotic and seem intent on confounding the reader. Recommending a few of his titles to friends and family has made it clear that Ball really isn't everyone's "cup of tea". But that may change with his latest effort How to Set a Fire and Why. The book is a fair bit more accessible than his previous titles, but it is the narrative voice that Ball uses to give life to the books narrator Lucia that makes it a read that I feel more people would and should enjoy. Lucia is a high school aged, sharp-tongued straight talker very much in the tradition of Holden Caulfield. But Lucia is also a wannabe arsonist and potentially a real danger to society, yet her sense of humor and intelligence makes her immediately likable. Plus she spells out and follows a strict ethical code of her own design. Her circumstances are beyond tragic, but the boldness of Lucia's wit and the power of her individuality ultimately assure you that despite the sad truth of her life, Lucia will survive. You may not go on to read more of Jesse Ball's work, and that's ok, but once you get to know Lucia you won't soon forget her and you won't put this book down.
A few of my fellow KPL librarians decided to try a Reading Challenge this year just for the fun of it. There are a ton of challenges out there but this is the one we've been using. It's been a great experience since it's given us a chance to discover good books we otherwise would have avoided. I was nervous about "The First Book You See in a Bookstore" challenge but the book I first laid eyes on has turned out to be one of the best books I've read this year. Nomi Eve's Henna House may have been on that bookstore's bargain cart, but it was a hidden gem.
The book follows the life of young Adela as she grows up in 1920s Yemen. Her family is Jewish and her father's health is failing. If she is orphaned, she risks being taken by the Confiscator who will place her with a Muslim family, forcing her to give up her religion and her family ties. Her parents desperately try to arrange a marriage for her, which would save her from the Confiscator's grip, but misfortune keeps following poor Adela. Despite her situation looking hopeless, she finds solace and acceptance in her aunt's house where she learns the tradition of henna and develops a close friendship with her cousin, Hani.
Let's talk about Here, a fascinating book by Richard
McGuire. Classified as a graphic novel, it's less of a comic book, and more of
a subject study as the entire book never leaves the living room of McGuire's
childhood home. The book travels backward and forward in time, exposing
ordinary events that happened in that very spot, almost like players wandering
on and off the stage.
Things get interesting however, when little windows start to
appear on the page. A woman in 1957 stops to try and remember why she walked
into the room while a cat from the year 1999 saunters through. A baseball that
crashes through the window in 1983 has no impact on the man trying to tie his
shoe in 1991. The room begins to get crowded as people from the distant past,
present, and future all begin to appear in these trans-temporal windows. As if something about the ordinary-seeming space has unraveled the space time continuum.
It's a fun, and thought provoking book. After reading it, you can't help but think about the people who stood where you are years before, and who will be here years after you're gone.
In her novel, The Bees, Laline Paull tells the story of the not-so-secret life of an actual bee, in the vein of the rabbits of Watership Down.
Based on the science of bee biology and behavior, the book looks at one bee as an individual--and so, daringly, does the character herself. Flora 717 is a worker bee but is physically different from others--a likely death sentence in the hive's totalitarian society. But through a chance encounter, one of the "priestesses" who run the hive spares her, and Flora is afforded opportunities not normally available to her "kin" (all Floras are lowly sanitation workers).
It isn't clear whether her curiosity is another innate difference or is brought about her experiences, but one after another, Flora is allowed to perform many of the different roles of the hive. Her strength and intelligence contribute to her success, and she comes to the hive's rescue in various crises.
Flora is not universally appreciated, however. The Sage priestesses in particular see her as a threat to their dominance, and she becomes a fugitive when she breaks the hive's cardinal commandment through an involuntary action (based on a true natural phenomenon that occurs in one in 10,000 worker bees, according to an interview with Paull).
As in Watership Down, animals (and even plants) are personified without being entirely anthropomorphized. The Bees is a mix of reality and imagination: bees express human thoughts and emotions but communicate primarily through scent and vibration; they not only serve the queen but consider her fertility sacred and worship her in ceremonies of "devotion"; and the male drones are lesser characters in the operation of the hive but also provide comic relief through their self-important and bawdy conduct.
The Bees is a font of fascinating information about these social insects and also calls attention to the environmental threats to their survival, but it is also just a good read. Flora's story is one that would be compelling regardless of her species, and it certainly made me think about bees differently!
Plum Kettle is fat, and she doesn't want to be. She spends her days in solitude, dreaming of the day she'll be thin after her scheduled bariatric surgery and buying clothes for her future thin self—that's when she'll be happy and finally start living the life she wants. But there would be no story here if that's what happened to Plum; instead, an encounter with a mysterious woman leads Plum to discovering an underground faction of fierce feminists who challenge how Plum sees herself and the whole wide world. The book jacket describes Dietland as "part coming-of-age story, part revenge fantasy," is which absolutely a great description of this darkly funny, feminist novel.

Adopt a penguin
The adorable Adélie penguin. Captivating, inquisitive and incredibly vulnerable to threats like climate change.
Adélie penguins depend on sea ice for their main food source - krill. But parts of the Antarctic and Southern Ocean are warming rapidly, which is affecting the penguins' feeding grounds.
Your adoption really helps
Animal adoptions like yours give a huge boost to our work. They help fund projects to work with local communities to monitor Adélie penguin movements and protect their habitat.
Protect these incredible animals and receive:
Cuddly toy
An optional soft toy to love forever.
Regular updates
Both Wild World and My Penguins magazines will keep you up-to-date three times a year.
Fact pack
Packed with facts, bookmarks and stickers.
A wonderful gift
Give a gift that will help protect the future of Adélie penguins and their habitats
Loss of prey
Climate change is reducing the amount of sea ice in parts of the Antarctic. One of the Adélie penguins' main food sources, krill, breeds and feeds under the sea ice.
More snow
Adélie penguins only nest on bare, dry land and increased snowfall during late winter and early spring may cause chicks to hatch later. There's less krill around at this time of year, which can affect the chicks' chances of survival.
Overfishing and oil
Overfishing of krill and oil pollution from shipping accidents are also threats to the Adélie penguin and its environment.
Gentoo penguins
Adélie penguins may also lose ground to Gentoo penguins, which are better adapted to warming Antarctic environments.
How we can help
We work with governments, industries and individuals to help reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. We encourage them to switch to renewable energy – to help minimise climate change and the warming that threatens Adélie penguins, their food sources and their habitat.
We're also involved in helping improve the way Antarctica is managed through the Antarctic Treaty and the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR). They ensure that fisheries are sustainable and aim to eliminate illegal, unregulated and unreported fishing.
Your adoption and support will help us:
- improve the management of Antarctica's resources and safeguard its wildlife
- establish a network of marine protected areas covering at least 10% of the 20 million km² Southern Ocean
- reduce illegal and unsustainable fishing practices
- raise awareness of the threats of climate change we all face
- fund our other essential work around the world

Best Bakery
Any reasonably good bakery really needs just one thing to entice you through its doors: the aroma of freshly baked bread. Once inside, however, a little more is required, such as crunchy baguettes, buttery croissants, perfectly shaped dinner rolls. Croissan'Time has all this and much more, from nearly a dozen varieties of cookies to such decadent classic French pastries as éclairs and napoleons (which also come in miniature versions) to cakes and pies as simple as lemon tarts and apple pies or as fancy as pecher mignon. And then there's variety within variety. The namesake croissants come plain or with any of ten fillings. Fruit tartelettes are available with nine fillings over either a custard or an almond-cream base. Breads and rolls come in whole wheat, rye, pumpernickel, and sourdough; seed options include caraway, poppy, and sesame. The bakery, which opened in 1986, has risen to acclaim under the leadership of owner Bernard Casse, a Frenchman who underwent a variety of apprenticeships, then worked at such tony New York City restaurants as La Grenouille and Regine's before moving to South Florida. He was employed at the Little French Bakery in Palm Beach, detoured briefly to Houston, Texas, then worked at Miami's Ovens of France, where he met his future business partner for Croissan'Time. The partner has since retired, and the bakery has added a sandwich counter and a gourmet shop that offers wine, cheese, meat, pasta, and various delicacies. But it's the breads, pastries, and other baked goods -- all made fresh on the premises daily -- that keep people coming back.

Physical location of data will become irrelevant by 2020, says Gartner
The physical location of data will be irrelevant by 2020, replaced by a combination of location criteria such as legal, political and logical concerns
The physical location of corporate data will become irrelevant by 2020, replaced by a combination of other criteria, according to a Gartner report.
Defining the datacentre needs of 21st century enterprises
A collection of our most popular articles on datacentre management, including: Cloud vs. Colocation: Why both make sense for the enterprise right now; AWS at 10: How the cloud giant shook up enterprise IT and Life on the edge: The benefits of using micro datacenters

Gartner said the location of where companies store data will become "increasingly irrelevant" in the post-Prism era, and will be determined by a combination of legal, political and logical considerations.
According to the analyst firm, the number of data residency and sovereignty discussions has soared in the past 12 months, stalling technology innovation in many organisations. These discussions were fueled by revelations of NSA surveillance, it said.
"IT leaders find themselves entangled in data residency discussions on different levels and with various stakeholders such as legal advisors, customers, regulatory authorities, employee representatives, business management and the public," said Gartner research vice-president Carsten Casper.
Physical control and proximity
But the research firm acknowledged that, currently, the physical location of data is still important to enterprises.
Historically, people equated physical proximity with physical control over data and security. Although locally stored data can be accessed remotely, the desire for physical control still exists, especially among regulatory bodies, said Casper.
He warned businesses not to dismiss concerns about physical location, but instead balance the discussion with other types of risk – including legal, logical and political issues.
Business leaders must make risk-based decisions while choosing cloud and datacentre services, by taking into account the physical location, legal location, political location and logical location of data, the analyst firm advised.
Many IT professionals are not aware of the concept of legal location. The legal location is determined by the organisation that controls the data. "There could be another legal entity that processes the data on behalf of the first entity, such as an IT service provider; and a third legal entity that supports the second one – possibly a datacentre in India," Casper said.
Explaining political location, Casper said considerations such as law enforcement access requests, the use of inexpensive labour in other countries that puts local jobs at risk or questions of international political balance are important for public-sector entities.
Logical location as front runner
Finally, Casper added that "logical location" is emerging as the most likely criterion for international data processing arrangements, determined by who has access to the data.
For example, a German company signs a contract with the Irish subsidiary of a US cloud provider, fully aware that a backup of all data is physically stored in a datacentre in India. While the legal location of the provider would be Ireland, the political location would be the US and the physical location would be India, logically, all data could still be in Germany, he explained.
"For that to happen, all data in transit and all data at rest (in India) would have to be encrypted, with keys residing in Germany. With such an architecture there is an increase in cost and complexity and a reduction of usability through functions like preview and search, mobility and latency," Casper said.
"None of the types of data location solves the data residency problem alone." The future will be hybrid where enterprises use multiple locations with multiple service delivery models, he predicted.
"IT leaders can structure the discussion with various stakeholders, but eventually, it's the business leader who has to make a decision, based on the input from general counsel, compliance officers, the information security team, privacy professionals and the CIO."

Wars of Attrition in Italian Government Coalitions and Fiscal Performance: 1948-1994
We test the "war of attrition" models of fiscal performance on the sample of Italian governments from 1948 to 1994. We control for conditioning phenomena, like government stability, majority size, central bank independence, political budget cycle and external economic constraints, as well as for business cycle indicators. We improve on the standard specifications of war of attrition models by considering the role of the opposition and by using ex ante measures of coalitions fragmentation. Once these phenomena are accounted for, data support the implications of our version of the war of attrition models. Copyright 2001 by Kluwer Academic Publishers

BUENOS AIRES – Argentina coach Sergio Batista quickly felt the pressure after he arrived late to his team's first training session for the Copa America.
Expectations in Argentina are enormous for the team to win the South American championship and its first major title in 18 years.
Argentina is the host country and Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez said it would be a ''failure'' if two-time World Cup champion Argentina failed to win it.
''It won't be a failure,'' Batista replied on Wednesday. ''We are obliged to win it - we're in Argentina. Expectations are big and Argentina, like in everything, is obliged to be successful.''
Batista missed the early part of the training after being delayed in Brazil because of flights grounded by ash from a Chilean volcano.
Batista and a core of young players were returning from two matches abroad - a 4-1 loss at Nigeria and a 2-1 loss at Poland.
Argentina's top players such as Lionel Messi, Tevez and Javier Mascherano made the first practice, which was conducted by assistant coach Alejandro Tocalli.
Argentina opens the Copa America on July 1 against Bolivia, and is expected to reach the final and face Brazil.
Batista is also feeling the heat from Julio Grondona, the embattled president of the Argentine Football Association.
Grondona charged Batista with ''auctioning off the prestige'' of the national team following the lopsided loss last week at Nigeria, in which Batista fielded only second-line players. Three days later, the same squad lost 2-1 to Poland.
Grondona, president of AFA for 32 years, has his own problems.
The leading daily La Nacion last week called for him to resign, questioning his leadership after acknowledging recently that he made sure there was no drug testing for a World Cup playoff in 1993 between Argentina and Australia.
Grondona said drug tests were not obligatory at the time. Grondona is the senior vice president of FIFA, the No. 2 behind president Sepp Blatter.
Daniel Passarella, who coached Argentina and was a member of its World Cup-winning teams in 1978 and 1986, also called last month for Grondona to step down.
Grondona has been accused of looking the other way at hooligan violence at club matches. A nonprofit organization says 256 people have died in football-related violence in Argentina since 1924 - 13 in just the past year. A match last weekend was suspended when a police officer was wounded in a shootout between rival hooligan gangs. The wound was not life-threatening.
FIFA, the governing body of football, is also investigating Argentina's 4-1 loss to Nigeria with betting patterns suggesting it was targeted by match-fixers. Neither AFA nor Argentine players have been implicated.

About Wetdog
Wetdog, an indie pop trio whose gritty, puckish tunes give a nod to Lung Leg, Huggy Bear, and the Raincoats, formed in the spring of 2007 around the talents of guitarist Rivka Gillieron (formerly of Reverend Pike & the Ghosts), drummer Sarah Datblygo (also of the Ghosts), and bassist Billy Easter. Initially based in England, the band's debut long-player, Enterprise Reversal, came out on Angular Records one year later. Wetdog's sophomore effort, Frauhaus, was released in 2009, on the U.S.-based label Captured Tracks. After touring America a few times, the band went on hiatus when Gillieron's pregnancy and Datblygo's move to New York City made finding time to collaborate difficult. Though the members worked on other projects -- including Easter's other band, Shopping, and Gillieron's career as an author and editor -- they also completed a set of new songs over the course of four years. The results were Divine Times, which Upset the Rhythm released in May 2015. ~ Margaret Reges, Rovi

Senate passes hate crimes bill - but jet controversy could kill it
07/17/2009 - 00:00
James Besser
Friday, July 17th, 2009 Here's the good news for the ADL and other Jewish groups that have fought for it for than a decade: the Senate today passed a new hate crimes bill expanding coverage of existing statutes to include, among others, gays and lesbians. The House already passed the measure. "When an individual is harmed simply because of his or her identity, it harms our communities and entire nation," said Rabbi Steve Gutow, president of the Jewish Council for Public Affairs (JCPA), which was first out of the starting gate with a press release. "This legislation would clearly demonstrate that our government is committed to securing dignity for all people in our nation." Here's the bad news: it's attached to a defense authorization bill that could attract a presidential veto for reasons having nothing to do with the hate crimes language. The problem: the Senate version includes funding for the F-22 fighter, which President Obama and the Pentagon want to kill, but which lawmakers can't let go of because components of the expensive jet are built in dozens of states. President Obama, who supports the hate crimes provision, has promised to veto any defense bill that includes more F-22 funding as part of his effort to curb runaway military spending. Also, the different House and Senate versions have to be reconciled, which is always a good opportunity for removing controversial elements. This has to be one of the longest-running legislative battles in Jewish political history – and as they say, it's not over until it's over.

A group of Georgetown residents will gather at 11 a.m. Saturday, April 28 to unveil a historic marker at the site of the former Dissenter Meeting House in western Georgetown County.
The former Dissenter Meeting House was located off Indian Hut Road on the Black River. When the Church Of England became the state church in 1702, other forms of worship were not allowed to be called churches.
The dissenting group made up of the Presbyterian, Baptist and Huguenots would meet in buildings called meeting houses.
Dissenter Meeting House
The first House of Worship erected by a dissenting congregation between the Santee and the Cape Fear Rivers was the Dissenter Meeting House, located on Church Creek in the corner of the Georgetown-Williamsburg line, said local historian Virginia Skinner, a member of First Baptist Church.
This was an excellent brick structure, forty by sixty feet and was erected in 1726 for the use by the religious Dissenters in the Black Mingo community. The Reverend Elisha Screven, an Antipedo Baptist Minister, was the moving spirit in the building of this church, contributed the greater part of its cost and preached the first sermon from its pulpit.
Since there were few of the Baptist faith in the community, this ancient church was soon dominated by the Presbyterian element in the congregation. The Presbyterians moved from this site and built the Black MIngo Presbyterian Meeting House, seven miles north, Skinner said.
Upon the death of Elisha Screven in 1754, the remaining Baptists moved to Georgetown joining with a dissenter group. Rev. Elisha Screven, the founder of Georgetown, was the son of the Reverend William Screven who brought the Baptist Faith to the South having the first Baptist Church in Charleston located on Church Street in 1698.
Public invited
The public is invited to the event.
People may tour the cemetery and bring a folding chair with a picnic lunch. The group will gather at the river.
Skinner has been instrumental in getting many historic markers placed in and around Georgetown County. She is a retired teacher and assists in numerous projects throughout the area.

Along the beaches and streets of Sarasota, there are just as many styles and colors of men's jeans as the personalities of the men who are wearing them. The right pair of men's jeans can be the foundation of your outfit and the trick, of course, is finding the wash and brand that works with your wardrobe's personality. Here's a guide to the men's jeans you'll find walking around Sarasota:
Grey jeans are making a comeback this year, but they're not the grey of yesterday. Scotch & Soda makes a light, more washed-out grey called Stone and Sand, which will pair well with shirts of virtually any shade. Joe's Jeans offers a darker option called Smoke, which you'll find being worn all over town. In either case, this new take on neutral affords you the ability to dress your jeans up or down and play with the combinations in your closet without feeling stuck in the same old hues of blue.
Medium-dark jeans will probably give you the most wear, as they can make appearances on just about every scene. Fidelity's Deepwater Vintage is an excellent example of a shade that checks all the boxes, and the classic stitching accents on many of Fidelity's styles pay homage to a vintage feel. This color works well with most colors of the rainbow. If you're unsure, lean toward the lighter side when you're choosing your shirt.
Colorful personalities might feel too contained in a traditional wash, and there are plenty of options to accommodate these outgoing people in today's market. Often, colored denim is used to make slim-fitting jeans. The result is a hipster-oriented combination of color and personality that's perfect for exuberant people. Joe's Jeans offers a large selection of colored denim in just about every color of the rainbow. Fidelity Denim's Azteca is a tan color that offers an excellent alternative to khaki.
If you're working on creating a wardrobe that truly is uniquely you, consider buying the Lindbergh & Shine brands. The exclusivity of this manufacturer ensures that you're not likely to see another man wearing a version of your favorite jeans. They're impeccably crafted with the intent of being a part of many of your future memories as they're made.
Find the perfect pair of jeans to fit your style at Blackbird today! Stop by our Sarasota store and see what we have to offer.
In Sarasota, men's fashion can run the range from formal to fabulous. Commonly, however, men's fashion tends to find a happy medium right in the middle. The perfect pair of jeans matched with just the right shirt and the perfect shades will take you from work to play and keep you looking good throughout the day.
To build the right all-day-long outfit, you will need to start with a great pair of jeans. Great jeans are the basis for any cosmopolitan-to-casual encounter, and they give you the flexibility to alter the mood of your outfit without loosing the comfort factor. Joe's Jeans are a Sarasota favorite, offering a number of styles, each created with high-quality and sturdy denim.
Up next on the agenda? A great fitting shirt. Polos and button downs come in a diverse range of colors, shapes, and sizes, but if you are going to be running around from dusk to dawn, consider going for a t-shirt that adds just enough personality to show off your style without leaving you reaching for an iron half way through the day. Need some suggestions? Scotch Soda can be seen on fellas all over Sarasota's sandy beaches. Of course, if you want versatility, you can pair a Frank & Eileen button down over your favorite t-shirt for texture and taste that has got a classic feel.
Finalize your outfit with the right accessories. A nice leather belt helps to pull everything together. Try a Cowboysbag belt if you're looking for a piece of hide that's meant to last a lifetime. Couple that with an impeccably crafted pair of BED|STü shoes, and you're ready to get to stepping. All you need now is the right pair of shades to protect your eyes from the sun and complete your head-to-toe efforts.
Of course, this is Florida, and you'll want to have a pair of swim trunks that can hit the beach with the same style you will be showing off with your favorite pair of denim. Swimwear is a normal part of men's fashion in this town, and you'll find many brands that are made to look you stunning in the sun. Parke & Ronen is always a crowd pleaser, offering a full range of styles, colors, and shapes.
Black Bird Lifestyle is the place for men's fashion for any function. Check out our inventory, and let us know what we can do for you!
Vintage furniture and décor, contrary to what many people assume, can complement and enhance every decorating style. Your overall look doesn't have to be vintage to benefit from the addition of these timeless pieces. In fact, they often work best in other styles, so your rooms don't look too matched.
The following reasons help explain why vintage furniture and home decor is perfect for every look:
They won't look dated
Many specific styles, items, colors, and other elements of home decor fall in and out of style. Vintage pieces are timeless, so rather than making your decor look dated, they do just the opposite. Their qualities have stood the test of time and don't fall in and out of the list of what's trendy. They'll add elements that don't immediately make visitors think, "Oh, I recognize that look. It was popular about five years ago."
You can incorporate unique pieces
Your home should be a reflection of you and your unique style and personality. Ideally, it shouldn't look as though the inspiration for the entire look came from a page in a catalog or magazine. Vintage furniture and decor can give your home character that helps create a style that's all your own. Your home won't look like anyone else's, and that's a wonderful thing!
Vintage items create an interesting contrast
Too much of any one style isn't usually the best choice. Contrast is interesting, so if you add some vintage pieces to, for example, modern décor, you're casting new light on your modern pieces and adding a touch of beauty and charm. Conversely, your modern pieces make your vintage pieces look more interesting. Vintage furniture and decor can add this type of interest and contrast to absolutely any look.
They tell a fascinating story

Men and women are attracted to the store because, despite its unique selections, the items are designed for universal appeal. Here are some reasons why Black Bird is the ultimate source for men's wardrobe essentials.
High Quality
Cotton Citizen from Los Angeles is a luxurious fashion brand for various clothing. Thirts, sweatshirts and sweatpants are just some of the items you can expect at Black Bird. Part of the attraction of Cotton Citizen clothing is that it is manufactured entirely from denim-influenced dye processes by hand. The company tests cotton-based fabrics and only uses the best fabrications. Essentially, the brand combines fashion, style and comfort for all seasons.
Bathing Suits
For swimwear, Black Bird carries the brand Parke and Ronen, which favors a chic appearance rather than glitz or gimmicks.

The New York-based company prides itself on fit, fabrics and refined details for people who want to combine simplicity with sensation. Since one founder comes from New York and the other is from Italy, the mens fashion clothing line, which includes shirts, pants, sportswear, footwear and accessories, has a mix of American and European influence.

When choosing light fixtures for your home, it's important to consider factors such as scale, color, composition and repetition as you explore illumination creativity in home decor. Chandeliers, sconces, pendants, floor lamps and table lamps all influence the mood of the room with their appearance and the light they provide. By selecting interesting fixtures for each room of your home, you light and accentuate rooms in a way that conveys your personal style.
Drum up drama
Pendant lighting over kitchen islands is a growing trend in home decor and you can add a touch of drama by using lights with wider, drum-style shades. A pendant with a hand-hammered iron drum shade and a double diffuser inside creates unique light over any island. The metal of the shades evokes thoughts of the cookware in the space and the fixtures give ideal task lighting.
Orbs of light
Suspending a chandelier over a dining room table is a classic home decor accent that receives an update with today's lighting designs. Chandeliers come in a multitude of styles including descending bubbles, wrought iron wonders, woven branches of metal or wood, and mixtures of materials to create a stunning focal point for the central eating space of the home. Whatever style of chandelier you choose, having it on a dimmer switch is an easy way to set the mood of the meal.
Flattering focus
Getting bathroom lighting right is essential, as it's becoming an oasis-style space with unique home decor. There's no more worry about fluorescent fixtures or harsh, overhead bulbs washing out your complexion. Incorporating layers of light into the bathroom is the new focus with a mixture of ambient, accent, decorative, and task lighting. Counter overhead light with wall sconces and soften the mood over a vanity with pendant lights and your bathroom becomes a more pleasant room to use any time of day.
Relaxation and reflection
Bedroom design focuses on relaxation and benefits from several forms of light fixtures including table lamps, floor lamps, sconces and hanging lights. The various chandelier styles available can make the space romantic or calming, and balancing the room with coordinating lamps on side tables and by reading nooks gives the room more depth and character.
At Blackbird Lifestyle in Sarasota, you find all these lighting styles and ones you've never imagined. The unique lighting selection adds evocative interest to the home decor of every room. Check out our blog for more home decor ideas or stop by our store today!
Shoes can say a lot about the man that wears them. Mens shoes are diverse and have as much personality as the people that put them on. Whether they're made for work, or they're the perfect pair for evening wear, every shoe says a lot about you.
Here's a quick look at our style guide for mens shoes:
If you are looking for unique home items and high quality mens shoes in Sarasota, Florida, stop in and see us at Black Bird Home Gallery.
BedStu's are an exceptional shoe and a customer favorite. Each shoe is beautifully hand crafted with materials that are aged to perfection with unique hand finishes. Cushioned outsoles provide durability and comfort and their rich leather components give them an authentic vintage feel that is engineered to last.
Hand dyeing, burnishing, and aging gives each pair its own individual character creating variations in color, meaning no two pairs are the same.
The contemporary design style was born in the mid half of the 20th century when a range of styles merged. Today's contemporary style features both round and sharp edges a like, a mostly neutral color pallet- sometimes with a pop of color for accent- and a comfortable, welcoming feeling.
Modern or Contemporary?
While these design styles are similar, there are definite differences between them. Modern design features bold, stark lines giving a minimalist feel. Contemporary design focuses more on basic lines, form, and shape, giving a warm, comfortable feel.
Achieving the Look
Keeping a less is more mindset is best. Use solid or subtly patterned fabrics rather than bold, colorful prints and go with minimal accessories in lieu of large collections. Colors usually include a range of neutrals, black, and white and often feature a punch of color through simple room décor or an accent wall. When walls are painted with a neutral, a great backdrop is created for the rest of the room.
Décor is a huge element of this look. The space between pictures and décor on the walls is just as important as the décor itself. Use round edged décor to balance out sharp edges and welcome the idea of high-gloss finishes. Chrome, steel, and glass work great when mixed in with the neutral color pallet, keeping the less is more mindset in mind. Combining shine with texture, like ribbed or crackled glass or brushed nickel and copper, works great. A few pieces here and there can really tie a room together!
Using the proper lighting as your room accent creates a great focal point. Find floor and table lamps with straight lines and sleek finishes. Incorporating color into your fixtures with, for example, a lampshade, is a great place for the rooms pop of color. Using recessed or track lighting can draw attention to accessories and décor.
Ultimately, achieving a contemporary look is not difficult. Paying attention to color, lines, and textures is the key. When keeping these factors in mind and adding your own personal touches, your perfect room can easily be achieved.
Did you know we hold numerous awards for our elegant furniture and accessories? We are proud of our reputation here at Black Bird Home Gallery and are delighted to satisy our customers needs. Check out a few of our awards!

DETROIT — Philadelphia manager Pete Mackanin did not need any complex explanations for his team's offensive struggles against Justin Verlander.
"He was locating his fastball, and we just weren't catching up to it for some reason," Mackanin said. "That's pretty much it."
Verlander struck out 10 in eight scoreless innings, and Francisco Rodriguez held on for his 400th save in the Detroit Tigers' 3-1 victory over the Phillies on Tuesday night. Miguel Cabrera drove in two runs for Detroit, and since losing 11 of 12 earlier this month, the Tigers have now won eight of nine.
Verlander (4-4) has allowed only four runs over his last four starts. He gave...

Groton - Carson's Store, which has been in business in Noank for 106 years, will close - at least temporarily - on Jan. 2.
Dave Blacker, who has owned the store for decades, declined to comment Monday but did not deny it was closing.
"It's heartbreaking," said Mary Edgerton, who co-owns the nearby Universal Package Store with her husband, Mike. "As business owners, it's scary for us."
Folks in Noank know the diner-style store, with its lime green counter and dark green booths, not just for its penny candy and coffee, but for its gossip.
"Where else would you go?" asked Mike Edgerton.
"It's a Noank institution that Dave has kept running all these years that everybody loves and appreciates," said customer Dane Liston, who said he wants to get there one more time.
Liston works in Bethesda, Md., but said he bought coffee at Carson's most mornings for 22 years when he worked at Pfizer.
"I don't know the reasons for the closure. But I know everyone is really sad."
The store is open from 6:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. and will be open on New Year's Day.
Blacker wouldn't say why he made the decision or whether it was permanent. Groton Town Police confirmed Monday that the store was burglarized during the evening or early morning of Nov. 24-25. Lt. John Varone said the burglary is under investigation and there was evidence of a forced entry. He declined to comment on what was taken.
Businesses in Noank struggle during winter, and at least one closed in recent years. The Universal Food Store shut down in 2011, after Tropical Storm Irene knocked out power and the store lost thousands of dollars' worth of produce. The storefront did not remain empty, though, reopening as Noank Community Market.
Jane Carson started Carson's in 1907, first baking and selling pies and doughnuts to Noank Shipyard workers to support her young children and ailing husband. She bought the property at 43 Main St., where the store is now, in 1918.
Her son, Bernard Carson, took it over and ran it until 1972. When he retired at age 65, he said the store had been open seven days a week and he and his wife, Catherine, hadn't had a vacation in 10 years.
Ultimately, Blacker bought Carson's and renovated it, preserving the traditional New England feel.
"It just seems like it's the center of the community, really," said Rick Lunt, general manager of Noank Community Market. He said he hopes the closure is temporary. "It's where everybody goes to get their news. I mean, everybody you tell, they're just in shock."

Damn, Coffee, is there anything you can't do? New research shows that in addition to warding off depression in women, generally staving off death (for realz), and keeping me reasonably functional during the day, coffee is now linked to a lower risk of skin cancer.
A study published in the journal Cancer Research found that those found those who drank three or more cups of coffee a day had a 20 percent lower risk of basal cell carcinoma. The study looked at nearly 113,000 men and women.
"I think we're seeing more and more evidence for the beneficial effects of coffee consumption," said study author and my new BFF Jiali Han, associate professor of dermatology and epidemiology at Boston's Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard School of Public Health, explaining that coffee has also been linked to a reduced risk of diabetes and Parkinson's disease. "I wouldn't recommend drinking coffee solely based on this work, but it does add one more thing to the list."
Um, you had me at beneficial effects, Dr. Han.
The study found that caffeine from other sources, including cola, tea, and chocolate, were also beneficial. Decaf coffee did not produce the same results.
Obviously, what all of this means is that coffee is a gift from the gods, and we should worship at the Altar of Starbucks at every possible opportunity. Especially me, since I have a ridiculously high skin cancer risk. My grandfather had melanoma, and I have a history of dysplastic moles. I go to the dermatologist twice a year for my Mole Patrol, slather on sunblock, and cover up at the beach to the point that I look like something out of a vintage postcard. And now I have something else to add to my arsenal! Woo-hoo!
So now my skin health plan looks like this:
