What can I say about a book I disliked wholeheartedly? Let's start with the beautiful cover. The cover art is original and unique and definitely stands out amongst many urban fantasy books and is completely accurate to the book. The Book Cover and the intriguing book synopsis got me all excited to dive into the world of Tempest Rising. When I did dive, I dove so much that I started getting caught in a whirlwind of irritating dialogue, protagonists that act like victims 24/7 and a vampire that is just too cliche I was about to throw the book down my toilet so it'll get it's own whirlwind of sewage. Every time Jane True, the main character, speaks, or narrates. I hear this squeaky annoying voice in my head that I wince whenever she speaks. Imagine me wincing throughout my entire reading experience with Tempest Rising. I'm not particularly fond of Jane nor her irritating inner dialogue. She even calls her inner voice, her libido. *cue me hitting my head with this ridiculous book - twice* Again, I say irritating. Now, you're probably thinking. Why didn't I just stop reading it? Well, I tried! But my Obsessive Compulsiveness wouldn't let me. What's even worse is that I was dense enough to buy the entire series before checking if I would like the first one. That means, I'm going to have to finish the series and suffer because of my lack of logical thinking. Oh yes, the torture I inflict upon myself with these books. *shakes head disapprovingly* Now, for the folklore aspect of the book. The book had the most unusual set of supernaturals I've ever read before. This includes Selkies, Vampires, Succubi, Incubi, Shapeshifters, Gnomes, Nagas and a whole lot of other types that I can't remember because they were just too many. Each one had it's own significant part in the story and too be honest, it's hard for me to keep up with who is what type of supernatural. Frankly, I didn't care. For most of the book I was yelling at the pages telling it to get on with and just do something unpredictable so I can feel like the book had significance. The book was unpredictable maybe only a couple of times and just stopped itself from being good when Jane starts talking to her libido again. The instigator of her libido conversations is Ryu, a 270-year-old vampire. A 270-year old vampire who doesn't act his age. If I lived for over a hundreds of years and managed to keep my youth, I would be acting my age! Why would you be 270-years-old and act like you're still in your mid-twenties? Why do you want to even keep the naivety, the stupidity and the recklessness of that age? Yes, I dislike Ryu as much as I dislike Jane. The plot is average, the events and the antagonists were way too predictable and didn't tempt me to read on. I basically had to force myself to finish the book. The verdict: The characters were infuriating, unrealistic and not ones that I could relate to. The plot was boring and too patterned. And I ended up still enjoying the book only by convincing myself to look at Jane and Ryu's ridiculousness as something written on purpose by the author to entertain her readers.
This series started out good, but fell into the amateur's trap of too much explicit, redundant romance scenes in book #2. I love romance scenes in books and I found this series venturing into RME (roll my eyes) territory. It disrupts the plot, doesn't even make sense at times. It's like the author couldn't make up her mind to write a young adult paranormal fiction book or an erotic adult paranormal book and so it just annoys the reader as opposed to satisfying us.
My boyfriend picked it out one day on a whim...... best thing he ever did. I love this series. Great plot and characters.
CAUTION ! DON'T READ THIS SERIES ! If youndon't like laughing, unique plots or hot sex with freaky paranormals !
I was searching through all the fantasy books looking for something that wasn't just another book about vampires as the current trend seems to be. Although there are vampires in this book it also has a just about every supernatural creature you could ever imagine or may have read about. The main character Jane is a woman many of us can relate to. When we meet her she is working in a bookstore and has let her past pain shape her present day life which has kept her a little introverted and odd, but a very likable character. I read this book straight through and loved the scenes between Jane and her friend Ryu (hot,hot,hot). The story is great and interesting and the author has a laugh-out-loud sense of humor. If you are able to get past the cover (which I love) then you've already figured out this book is not for kids it is an adult book that makes Twilight seem like Sesame Street.
I bought this book because i had heard it was like the Sookie Stackhouse books and being as they are my all time favorite books i thought I'd give Tempest Rising a chance. It is NOTHING like the Sookie books, There are so many creatures introduced in this book it feels like it's all over the place, the relationship between Jane and Ryu is mainly based around sex,there's no relationship building at all, All through the book i was waiting for the plot to make itself known, but it wasn't until the last few chapters it finally appears,leaving me feeling like the book should of been longer, it's a very quick read and simple. (It's like hi I'm Jane, i met Ryu,and a bunch of creatures, some bad, the end.) It just needed MORE. Sorry to sound so harsh it was Nicole Peelers first book and all so i really hope her other Jane True books will be more descriptive and have more of a foundation to them, i will read the second book just to see if perhaps the story starts to pick up from there but if not i wont buy anymore Nicole Peeler books
This is a great mixture of all of the supernatural genres put together with an interesting back story. It zips right along and the characters are all interesting, well developed, and entertaining. Give it a try.
I really wanted to like this book, but I just couldnt. There was a lot of potential but it was too flighty. The main character worrying about her shoes while people are dying around her? Sorry, just not for me.
Truly, I actually picked up the second book of this series because of the cool looking cover without knowing it was the 2nd one, oops! Well, I bought the first book and read it...it was good, but that all it really was, just good. I think I realized this after the whole OMG SEX! thing blew-over, ha-ha. Some of the characters were really well written, but Jane, the main character, just annoyed me for some reason, it wasn't really romantic at all. Bottom line, good book, but would not pay to read it (I sold it after I was done with it). Also, a bit cliche to be taken seriously. Not by much, but it's there.
This debut is enchanting. The first-party narrative follows the experiences of Jane True, a human/selkie hybrid. Jane is truly likable with an unpretentious, sincere, and good-hearted, (sometimes humorous), personality. The supporting characters are quirky and engaging. The hidden, supernatural world created within the novel is captivating and imaginative. Jane's small coastal town is pleasingly quaint; the surrounding woods and shoreline are evocative; and, the bordering sea with its mammoth, off-shore whirlpool is mesmerizing. The Faerie Court visited by Jane is vividly described; and, the book's supernatural creatures are varied and finely detailed. The plot winningly combines a murder mystery with a coming of age tale. And, the romantic sub-plot is enjoyable, amusing and occasionally sizzling. The narrative flows beautifully and is punctuated by periods of intense action. The mystery is thrillingly resolved, and the book ends with a finish that leaves a reader satisfied but wanting more. There's a refreshing naivety about Jane which is very attractive. In addition, the book employs an entertaining, lighthearted humor. This is truly fun read, and I'm looking forward to reading the second book.
This is another book which I enjoyed so much I was not able to put it down. I wanted so badly to stay up all night and finish reading it, thats how much I loved the humor and the characters. We meet Jane, who lives with her slightly ailing father to help take care of him in a small home town of Rockabill. The appearance and disappearance of Janes mother has the towns people a little wary of her. Then there is that dark past, or deed of eight years ago, that has the small town whispering and starring at her all the time. A small town that seems to never forget, let alone forgive. This has caused Jane to take to staying to the shadows and not catching anyones eye to prevent an uncomfortable situation with a few of her biggest fans. In meeting Jane you learn quickly she is a swimmer. But, not any ordinary swimmer. She is such an exceptionally strong swimmer she swims in the outskirts of one of America's deadliest whirlpools, in winter with freezing cold water, naked. But, during this particular swim she spies a body spinning around in the Old Sow, the name of the large whirlpool. This book introduces you to many great mythical characters with great potential abilities that could easily complement Jane. You have your share of supernatural creatures here; kelpie, selkie, vampires, nahuals, and many, many others. We are introduced to an Investigator, Ryu, who is investigating more than the dead body of Jakes and is more than what Jane realizes. Janes relationship with Ryu is a unique one with love. I have loved these two together with the tension and understanding they share, along with making me smile and chuckle at the humor shared. There is a lot of great humor in the book. I found myself smiling and chuckling at Jane and her little comments or thoughts. One of my favorite humor lines from Jane is, after being chased through the woods for a short while by some animal which she does not know what or why it is chasing her. "I wasn't running now so much as stumbling quickly, panting like a geriatric lion." There are a few references in the same scene that made me chuckle but this one almost got me in trouble for reading while at work. I could rather understand what Jane was feeling and felt it myself. Also, with the whirlpool being named Old Sow the town has adopted many pig reference names. Reading Ryus responce to these names and thinking on them myself as I read I got a little chuckle everytime. Ryu seems to be a huge influence on Jane with helping to bring her out of her shell, and letting Jane be who Jane is. Jane has a lot thrown at her at once in this new crazy world with different rules, and she handles all the news very well... by running. No she doesn't run away in the book, but when the battles start she does what many of us think of and that is run. However, even in her running she fights for what she believes. Through all the craziness Jane grows greatly as a character, both physically and mentally. Jane is now ready to grow to her full potential, or at least start moving down that path for book 2 in the series. There is alot of room for the growth on these secondary characters in future books to accent Jane and even additional storylines. There is a lot of growth for Jane to do as well. I have fallen for the books and will be faithfully waiting for the next book, Tracking the Tempest to come out. A great, enjoyable read.
Tempest Rising is the impressive debut novel by Nicole Peeler. Let me start out by stating my biggest complaint about this novel: why did it take Ms. Peeler this long to write and publish Tempest Rising? I LOVED this story and I can not wait for the release of the sequel titled Tracking the Tempest. Fantastic writing, enjoyable story line, and loveable characters. Ms. Peeler is gifted with the talent to write humorously without turning her characters or storyline into brainless fodder. I was hooked by page 5 and simply could not put this book down. Not only is Ms. Peeler one of the best new authors to the genre this has to be one of the top ten books of the year. Buy this book, take it home and read it immediately, you will not regret it!
Rockabill, Maine is a small town that is home to the local pariah Jane True. The townsfolk hold her culpable for the death of her lover Jason, but not as much as she blames herself. She never told him that she can swim in the icy water and not feel the cold. During one of her nocturnal swims, Jason saw her and tried to rescue her but died in the whirlpool Old Saw. One night while swimming, she rescues a body from Old Saw. When she brings the body out of the water she realizes the dead victim is Peter who came to town to write a book. When she goes back to her place on the beach she meets Nell the gnome, a talking dog Anyan and a kelpie. They explain to Jane that her mom is a Selkie who after six years on land returned to the sea and her seal form. An outside investigator arrives in Rockabil to inquire into the drowning death of Peter, a halfling like Jane. When she meets Ryu the vampire, they fall into instant lust. His assignment gets complicated when a goblin arrives to take over his mission but the goblin is killed as is her superior. Peter apparently was working on a halfling project; which Ryu feels is tied to the Alfar elves who rule the supernatural world, but Jane never expected to be thrust into the center of an eerie schism that could kill her and tear asunder the supernatural realm. Readers who enjoy the Weather Warden series by Rachel Caine and the Sookie saga by Charlaine Harris will want to read the misadventures of Jane True. The two decades or so heroine copes with an inner strength with one tragedy after another, but the serial murders of halflings frighten her like nothing before. Although perhaps too much paranormal is introduced in this fun first urban fantasy whodunit, fans will enjoy the terrific TEMPEST RISING in the Pine Tree State. Harriet Klausner
It's refreshing in this age of paranormal romance to find a series where not all of the supernatural creatures in the book are super beautiful human looking, tormented, and misunderstood people just looking to fit in. Nicole Peeler does justice to the legends and all of their monstrous, inhuman glory. They are not human, nor do most of them pretend to be. Jane is also a refreshing character, okay with her uniqueness, loyal to her family and friends, and determinedly hopeful about her future. Though her character does come across as a little naive, she's fun to read and her adventure will be worth following.
love this series if you like patricia briggs or ilona andrews i think you would like this series
It was hard to rate this book. While i enjoyed the mythology and some of the characters, the story was lacking. The investigation was a background shadow to the main characters sexual inner monologue. Jane true's character was not believable. We are supposed to believe a childhood accident has left her both an outcast and seriously damaged. The whole town is supposed to be against her, but I only saw two examples of this. And if the town was truly against her why do her and her father stay? Her relationship with Rhy does not ring true and feels put in to have romance be an element in the book. I would have preferred they actually solve the mystery, rather than spending so much time on sex. I love romance in novels, when it makes sense! I realize this is the first novel for the author and i think she has enough here to make a good series, if she spends more time on the plot and please have Jane stop using the word 'thingy'.

When parents ask me about programs that can help them spend time with their kids on the water through fishing, I send them to Capt. Rodney Smith and Warren Wnek, with Anglers for Conservation.
These dads know plenty about getting parents and kids communicating through fishing and encouraging them to love fishing and the great outdoors. They raised their own broods of passionate anglers, not to mention the legions of neighborhood kids that were influenced by these two experts. Rodney, for example, spent at least 20 years guiding anglers of all ages on the Space Coast, in the Indian River Lagoon, Mosquito Lagoon and Banana River Lagoon, and has written numerous books and thousands of articles giving fishing advice.
Over the past decade or so, Anglers for Conservation has been the leader in helping tens of thousands of parents and children have more fun and success on the water. The group offers free seminars around the state that teach fishing basics, but most of all spread the gospel of fishing fun. I've attended several, and I never knew just how contagious big grins can be. By joining the group, you get a Hook Kids on Fishing Beginner Angler DVD free with membership. It's a must-watch for all parents interested in getting their kids "hooked on fishing," whether you're a novice or expert angler, or somewhere in between.
Anglers for Conservation started 2012 with an ambitious New Year's resolution. They are coordinating a nation-wide Fish Earth Day event between April 14-21, 2012 in celebration of Earth Day. They aim to set a Guinness World Record for the number of kids and families participating during this week-long educational event focusing on fishing fundamentals and conservation. For more information, contact firstname.lastname@example.com.
Come set a new fishing world record!

Sports and fashion are two explosive worlds that have increasingly embraced one another with each passing week. The budding bond is akin to the unbreakable friendship of Beavis and Butt-Head. They go hand in hand now. It works for the player, it works for the brands, and most of the time it even works for the fans.
What true naturals like Joe Namath thought was simply "lookin' smooth" has turned into a giant publicity spectacle, which often leads to various endorsements from brands looking to move that all-important needle. And that's when things inevitably snowball into an attention-forced abyss, like Brian Orakpo insisting on becoming the modern day Namath or Nick Young opting to flash more chest hair than WWE great, Giant Gonzalez.
But then there's all of those reliable fans, who — while always clamoring for the camera — never bow to the whims of snooty, highbrow fashionistas. What they do bring is a unique, expressive element of their own choosing, and one that usually coincides with just how bad or good their team is performing.
And that — coupled with athletes, media personalities, and even spirited mascots — is what this very space is here to embrace.
The MSG Network
Cheers to MSG's Jill Martin for challenging Clyde Frazier's shoes. But Crocodile Dundee — and anyone who makes hunting alligators a chief priority — never stood a chance. In the name of healthy feet, please keep challenging yourself.
Helpful Hint: Actually, we ALL win in this rare instance. Keep pushing.
Kevin Weekes
This is beautiful, Kevin. What is that, velvet? Why yes. Yes, it is.
Helpful Hint: Holy crap, that is velvet! You just set the proper tone for the remainder of the season.
Morgan Cox
If you're gonna get invited to the Pro Bowl, these are the shoes that could inspire anyone to STRUT TO THE BEAT.
Helpful Hint: I don't care who you are, use Sunscreen 175. My mom agrees.
The Latest Jordans
And the award for the most amazing shoes of the season goes to … Marquette Basketball? It appears so.
Helpful Hint: Please become the chief advocate of important feet. Mainly, LeBrons, Kobes, and ALL future Jordans.1
The Toledo Walleye!
Question: C'mon, man, really?
Answer: YES. This was an apparent ode to Don Cherry, the lord of any and ALL checker ever played.
Hot Dog Guy!
If you can't appreciate the jarring fact that someone dressed up like a giant hot dog in the name of missed foul shots, I don't want to know you.
Helpful Hint: Add ketchup. Twitter, and the better part of the world, will break.
Don Cherry
Amazingly enough, this is a subdued version of Don Cherry and a BEAUTIFUL version of Don Cherry.
Helpful Hint: Please provide link to said jacket.
I'm not sure what's worse, my willingness to wear either of these hats, or the EXISTENCE of these hats.
Helpful Hint: Seek help.
Clyde Frazier
We're only halfway into the NBA season, so please don't tell me WALT CLYDE FRAZIER of all people is getting bored.
It just can't be…
Oh my GOD, it be..
The idea that Walt Frazier wore the same suit but in different combinations is basically the day the music DIED.
Larry Bird socks! I'm not sure there's anything negative to say about such a wonderful existence.
Helpful Hint: Purchase Chuck Person socks for the sole purpose of breaking Bird's back.
James Jones
A hoodie underneath a splashy jacket? Brilliant,
Helpful Hint: It's an amazing statement, but people hate it. Tread carefully.
Marco Rubio
He's being ironic, right? To get the Brooklyn vote, right? Because — while Under Armour is having an out of this world kind of year — Marco Rubio is doing his very best to make it very awful.
Helpful Hint: It's VERY simple. You either go all-in on casual, or you don't.
Paul George's Shoes
Q: Does anyone have the sudden urge to go bowling?
I'm not sure what's scarier, Cam Newton's WWE inspired pants, or the fact there's a "rock group" called Steel Panther. It's honestly a disturbing tie.
Helpful Hint: Wear pants. Actual pants that don't instantly jolt memories of the nWo's finest moments. Thanks in advance.
Seriously, this getup is amazing. Don't you dare say you wouldn't do the exact same thing. Cam's title run is more fascinating than anything Hogan or Savage ever did.
Helpful Hint: Just don't try to outdo Ric Flair, because Woooooooooooo!
DeMarcus Ware
DeMarcus Ware is the only person even remotely comfortable in this photo. That chunky chain oozes confidence, while the other guys are left with arm decisions. Very bad arm decisions.
Are you kidding me with these things? LeBron could wear snorkeling equipment and still look miles ahead of whatever this shoe is supposed to be.
Kenny Anderson!
Kenny Anderson dressed in black, head to toe, playing off of Marlo's all white knight? Yes, that warrants commentary and serves as an exemplary form of the embattled sports world we've all come to know and embrace.
The beauty of @NHLTies is that is centers on TIES, and OH MY GOD THAT'S A BAD TIE.
Helpful Hint: Purchase paper shredder. Send tie through said paper shredder.
The Buccaneers
Let's make this a succicbt staement: YES.
Helpful Hint: Seriously, these unis are amazing. All day every Sunday would be a delight.
Bruce Arians
The NFL season is just days away from becoming a memory, so this photo is going to sit here because Bruce Arians is amazing.
Helpful Hint: Absolutely love the style and will pay you to wear a spinner cap. For the love of the people, ya' gottta do it, man.

Catholic Schools Week (CSW) 2016 will be held from 6 to 12 March and will involve the communities of all Catholic primary and secondary schools across NSW and the ACT.
One of the major objectives of Catholic Schools Week (CSW) is to raise public awareness of the strengths of Catholic schools and highlight the significant contribution the Catholic education sector makes to our state and nation. CSW is an opportunity to share with the broader community the great things that take place in our schools every day.
The week is designed to be a lively celebration for all who have a stake in our schools – students, staff, families, priests, and parishioners. It is for them to share in the joy and distinctive character of Catholic schools. Schools can, and often do, rely on positive word-of-mouth to build their school's reputation and promote specific events and programs, but the media role in raising the profile of the Catholic school in the wider community.
The theme for 2016 is 'I Belong. You Belong. We Belong.' which aligns with the Catholic Church's strong focus on supporting refugees and asylum seekers and the need for a compassionate global community.
The theme also ties in with the Catholic Church's celebration of the Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy, which centres on pardon, strength and love.
In this Year of Mercy, Pope Francis is calling on all Catholic communities to extend mercy to those in need, particularly refugees fleeing hunger and war.

By Zachary Roth
The story of polls, the press, and Tuesday's Wisconsin primary is not a pretty one, and there are no heroes.
In the smoking wreckage of the aftermath, it was painfully noticeable that pollsters and just about the entire campaign press failed to predict the late surge in Wisconsin that carried Sen. John Edwards to renewed prominence.
There was a precedent that reporters might have paid attention to here. In Iowa, polls taken even the day before the contest showed the race to be almost a four-way dead-heat, between Edwards, John Kerry, Howard Dean, and Dick Gephardt. Those polls didn't come close to predicting Kerry's margin of victory, particularly over Dean and Gephardt, who lost by 20 and 27 points respectively.
The pollsters have already expressed their own mea culpas over Wisconsin. As Jim Rutenberg of The New York Times reported yesterday, the head of Mitofsky Research — the exit polling service used by the networks and the Associated Press — on Wednesday posted the following note on a polling website:
"Yesterday exposed the biggest goofs in my memory."
But Campaign Desk is more interested in the 2004 campaign press's habit of making altogether too much of this consistently unreliable source. As Steve Seplow, a former campaign reporter and Knight Ridder Washington bureau chief, puts it, "What is more lazy than a reporter who relies on polls?"
In the days leading up to the Wisconsin vote, the press went astray in two different ways.
Here's how:
First, the final poll last week by the American Research Group (ARG) showed Kerry 53 percent, Edwards 16 percent, Dean 11 percent. That turned out to be shockingly inaccurate — the actual vote count was Kerry 40, Edwards 34, Dean 18. But that final ARG poll was conducted February 12 - five days before Wisconsinites went to the polls.
Why didn't ARG poll after that? Dick Bennett, ARG's president, told Campaign Desk that his news media clients —who he would identify only as a group of radio stations in Wisconsin and the Chicago area — decided not to pay for additional polling after February 12.
Those stations employ Bennett not only as a pollster — a provider of raw data — but also as a conventional political pundit who appears on their shows to interpret that data, and to speak more generally about the race as a whole.
According to Bennett, "the stations thought Dean was surging," based not on Bennett's research, but on anecdotal evidence, like the size of his crowds. That was a storyline the stations liked, since it suggested a dynamic, exciting race in which the much-maligned outsider might be staging a late comeback. So in the week before the race, everyone seemed to settle on the "surging Dean" theme.
Problem was, Bennett's ARG polls weren't picking that up. His February 12 survey, in addition to giving Kerry a 37-point lead, also showed that Dean's unfavorable ratings were so high as to prevent him from challenging Kerry for the lead.
Having decided that Bennett's polling didn't fit the agreed-upon script, the stations stopped commissioning any more ARG surveys for the crucial final five days of the campaign. "When I didn't find (a Dean surge), that's no fun … cause what do you talk about?" said Bennett.
As Bennett sees it, the consortium of radio stations that made up ARG's clients were cherry-picking poll results, choosing to commission only those surveys that they expected would show a Dean surge — not because they're Deaniacs, but rather because of a desire to create and sustain what they saw as a compelling storyline.
Aside from missing the real story — Edwards' surge in the race's last few days, driven by a strong debate performance on Feb 15, and the endorsement the next day of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, the state's largest paper — the stations' bias turned them from purveyors of news into creators of a story line that didn't correspond to reality.
A more conventional misuse of polling data was displayed by most of the national media.
Here's a representative lede from David Broder and Jim Vandehei's Washington Post story on the morning of the vote:
Struggling to keep their White House bids viable, John Edwards and Howard Dean on Monday implored Wisconsin voters to shake up the race for the Democratic nomination by delivering an upset in Tuesday's crucial primary. But Sen. John F. Kerry (Mass.), winner of all but two of the first 16 delegate contests, appeared headed for another victory, perhaps by a large enough margin to knock the senator from North Carolina or the former Vermont governor out of the race.
Broder and Vandehei continue: "Edwards vowed to stick with his campaign at least until March 9, though advisers privately acknowledge a big loss Tuesday could sound the end."
A few paragraphs later, they reveal the basis for their Kerry-centric approach: a Zogby/MSNBC/Reuters poll released that day, which showed Kerry 47 percent, Dean 23 percent, Edwards 20 percent - a survey that turned out to be only slightly more accurate than the earlier ARG poll.
It's clear the poll results were the determining factor in the tone of the coverage. Had the poll showed a close race, would the Post have begun the piece by declaring that Edwards was "struggling to keep (his) White House bid viable"?
Mark Barabak of the Los Angeles Times did the same thing. On February 15, he wrote, "In recent years, however, Wisconsin voters have tended to ratify the front-runner who emerged in earlier contests. True to that form, polls last week gave Kerry a commanding lead in the state."
When citing polls in Wisconsin that final week, reporters might have noted that to date the dynamics of this electorate seem to have consistently eluded pollsters. It's the most basic kind of caveat: "So far, this source hasn't been reliable." Some stories did include such cautionary notes, but too many, like Broder and Vandehei's, and Barabak's, did not.
There's more to this than just egg on a few reporters' faces. By making so much of polls which utterly failed to measure Edwards' appeal to late-deciding voters, the Post and others set the bar almost impossibly high for Kerry in Wisconsin. Thus when Kerry's victory turned out to be narrower than anticipated, the press immediately ruled that his campaign had lost its aura of inevitability. Jeff Greenfield's characterization of polls as the "crack cocaine" of political junkies never looked so apt.
As for ARG's local clients, they did even worse, if Bennett is to be believed — creating a desired storyline, then actively avoiding any hint of evidence to the contrary.

Regulators OK liquor sales at Turning Stone Casino
- Details
- Parent Category: Business
- Published: Saturday, 08 May 2010 18:28
- Written by Associated Press
- Hits: 6615
VERONA, N.Y. (AP) – State liquor regulators approved a liquor license Thursday for a newly formed company to serve alcohol throughout most of the Oneida Indian Nation's Turning Stone Casino and Resort in Verona.
The New York State Liquor Authority's board voted unanimously to issue a license to CD Food & Beverage, a non-Indian spinoff of The Beeches Restaurant in nearby Rome.
The Beeches is owned by the Destito family. Chris Destito, who died earlier this year, was the husband of state Assemblywoman RoAnn Destito. CD Food & Beverage was formed less than two weeks before Chris Destito died and is owned by two of his brothers and a cousin.
The authority had repeatedly denied a liquor license for the resort itself but had issued thousands of temporary permits to The Beeches to serve alcohol at its nightclub, lounges and upscale restaurants.
The license will eliminate the need for daily liquor permits, and casino guests will no longer have to be members of one of the casino's clubs to buy alcohol. The agreement also allows for collection of a bed tax and sales tax on food and drink sold at the resort.
Approval came after nearly 40 people, most of them associated with businesses that regularly conduct business with the resort, endorsed the plan. A handful of speakers objected, including Oneida County Legislator Michael Hennessy.
"There are people involved with potential conflicts," said Hennessy, who noted that the Oneidas had said when the resort opened in 1993 that alcohol would not be sold because it had been a long-standing problem for the tribe. "This whole program is questionable."
Under the new deal, CD Food & Beverage will lease restaurant and hospitality space from Turning Stone. In turn, more than 1,200 Turning Stone employees will become employees of the Rome-based company.

Cosmos 1 is officially lost! However, fellow solar sailors, it's not too late to buy a t-shirt.

solar challenge
World solar challenge 2003. Darwin to Adelaide 19 - 28 October. Check out the route. Meet the teams. Have a look at the Green Fleet class as well, where technology meets reality. I won't be able to watch the race but have high hopes for next year's Olympics.
omg we're all going to die,

Darwin's Paradise Lost.
Darwin's Paradise Lost. I'm really suprised no one's mentioned the oil spill that's threatening some of the most rarest animals in the world right now. With oil spill after oil spill, it really amazes me that we're not experimenting with safer, cleaner fuels. Although I wonder what would happen to wildlife should you spill 144,000 gallons of ethanol or biodiesel....though you can't really spill hydrogen or solar fuel, can you?

The Difference Between a Club and a GangThe differences between a club and a gang are quite distinct but it is the connotational differences between these two words which distinguishes one from the other The New Lexicon Websters Dictionary of the English Language defines a club as an association of people with some common interest who meet periodically It defines a gang as a number of men or boys banding together esp lawlessly This definition is traditionally slanted toward applying to male youth and stereotypical gangsters from the Mafia to street criminals Persons who often have a negative attitude toward youth see gangs Often individuals form gangs out of fear and for the protection of their members whether they are the Bloods and Crips of Los Angeles or the Sharks and the Jets of West Side Story Gangs may not possess a set of formal written rules but all of them have their own sets of customs or conditions Gangs may or may not be facilitated in a branch of higher and lower members mimicking a military model Gangs often have a loosely defined set of goals and are often involved in delinquent activitiesA socially approved form of a gang is a club Americans generally view clubs as character building leadership opportunities whereas individuals typecast into gangs are persecuted as criminals Clubs are formed with constructive goals in mind such as making it easier for its members to find parts for a particular brand of automobile Socioeconomic class academic achievement or perceived roles in society for its members all play a part in the preferential treatment given to a group which a society deems a club rather than a gang For instance parts of the public anticipated that motorcycle riders would cause a massive rise in crime within the Hollister area during the motorcycle rally This led to a reactionary response from local law authorities The event unlike previous occasions ended without major incident Perhaps

Women's earnings and employment by industry, 2009
February 16, 2011
Women who worked full time in wage and salary jobs had median weekly earnings of $657 in 2009. This represented 80 percent of men's median weekly earnings ($819).
Of the 45 million women who worked full time in wage and salary jobs, 17 million were employed in education and health services, and 5 million were employed in wholesale and retail trade. Financial activities and professional and business services each employed about 4 million women.

Executive summary:
- A rumor from reputable trade press firm, Digitimes, claims that Intel's next generation 14-nanometer PC chip codenamed "Broadwell" is delayed
- Such a delay throws off Intel's entire product pipeline and suggest delays for 14-nanometer mobile prodcessors
- Without this process lead, Intel's key structural advantage in mobile/computing begins to erode
I have to hand some pretty serious props to SemiWiki's Daniel Nenni. While many (including yours truly) gave Mr. Nenni quite a bit of flack for claiming that Intel's (NASDAQ:INTC) 14-nanometer process was delayed (even with Intel publicly claiming that 14-nanometers were on track as late as September 2013), it turned out that he was right on the money, as he had heard from his sources that the equipment move-in for the 14-nanometer node was delayed, implying that the process itself wasn't ready.
At the 2013 Investor Meeting, Intel's management claimed that the first 14-nanometer processor, code-named "Broadwell", was on-track for volume production during 1Q 2014 and a 2H 2014 system availability. Intel also claimed that its next generation Atom processor, code-named "Cherry Trail", would be available in late 2014.
Unfortunately, Digitimes claims that Broadwell has been delayed yet again to the 4th quarter of 2014, which further implies that Intel's first 14-nanometer mobile SoC ("Cherry Trail") will be delayed to early 2015, if true, as Intel's low power SoC processes tend to lag the mainstream CPU ones.
(Source: Digitimes)
I don't know if this is true, but if it is, then the repercussions could be pretty serious and it is very likely that Intel will see its "process lead" that it has claimed against TSMC (NYSE:TSM) and the rest of the ARM (NASDAQ:ARMH) ecosystemm erode. This is in light of the fact that TSMC is in high volume production of its 20-nanometer process today and claims to be on-track for production of its 16nm FinFET process for early next year.
Please, Not Another Disappointment!
I don't understand why Intel seems unable to leverage its process lead to really "win" this market, and I further don't get why Intel is having so much trouble with 14-nanometer while TSMC/Samsung claim to be on-track for 2015 production (right around when Intel will have it).
It had a great opportunity, a several year window, of FinFETs to itself. Its product development teams completely missed the mark in smartphones and tablets during 2013 (when this should have been a year during which nobody could have matched the performance/power/area of its mobile processors), 2014 doesn't look much better (since the 22-nanometer products that could be competitive won't roll out until the end of the year), and now it looks as though even the vaunted 14-nanometer process will be delayed into 2015 for mobile parts, implying that Broxton - the "absolute leadership" part from Intel - could be delayed into late 2015.
Now, if TSMC doesn't really ramp 20-nanometer into the market until late 2014/early 2015, then this gives Intel the entirety of 2015 on 14-nanometer to fight TSMC's 20-nanometer process. However, if TSMC moves more quickly than expected, then it'll be a match up between Intel's 14-nanometer process against TSMC's 16-nanometer process.
While Intel claims that it has a significant performance/density advantage with its 14-nanometer process against TSMC's 16-nanometer, there has been a lot of mudslinging and distortion behind these claims, so it's tough to know what to believe. At any rate, process is just one (major) enabler and the actual SoC design is equally, if not more, important than the underlying process. Intel had the better process at 22-nanometer, but its product definition teams didn't do a great job forecasting exactly what the market needed that it all turned out to be for naught.
I still remain long the shares in the hopes that the company really gets its mobile act together by the end of this year and in 2015 because if the company is successful, there's a LOT of operating leverage to be had and money to make owning the stock. However, with each passing day, it seems that the thesis that I've done so much work on is turning out to be more fantasy than anything based in reality.
With the ARM ecosystem benefiting from exploding leading edge volumes, enabling the likes of Samsung and TSMC on the manufacturing side of things, Intel's process lead is at serious risk, as is its long-term viability as the world's leading semiconductor vendor by revenue.
Here's hoping for something great from Intel at Mobile World Congress.
Disclosure: I am long INTC. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – A man accused of plotting to blow up an iconic New York City structure has pleaded guilty to explosives possession charges.
As WCBS 880's Irene Cornell reported, Aaron Greene pleaded guilty and will get a seven-year prison sentence for possession of explosives that were found in the Greenwich Village apartment he shared with girlfriend Morgan Gliedman.
The two were accused of plotting to blow up the Washington Square Park arch.
Investigators found hexamethylene triperoxide diamine, or HMTD, a highly explosive ingredient used in bomb making in Greene and Gliedman's apartment in December, police said.
Police seized two shotguns, a flare launcher, nine high-capacity rifle magazines, various handwritten notebooks containing formulas, literature on how to make booby traps and homemade weapons, CBS News reported earlier this year.
According to court papers, Gliedman told investigators that her boyfriend suggested buying more guns. She said he was concerned that gun possession laws would be tightened in the wake of the Newtown school massacre.
Gliedman, 27, gave birth to her first child shortly after she was arrested in the bomb plot.
Her attorney blames Greene for all her criminal troubles and her relapse into drug use, Cornell reported.
Her case is still pending.
Gliedman and her 7-month-old daughter Melody are living with her parents.
Gliedman, who is free on bail, has been fighting in family court to keep Greene and his family away from their baby girl.
She is the daughter of a prominent real estate agent and a top-rated New York oncologist.
Greene, 31, and Gliedman, 27, were arrested in December after a police search of their home turned up papers titled "The Terrorist Encyclopedia" and "Deadly Homemade Weapons." Officials also found 7 grams of HMTD, forcing the evacuation of three buildings in Greenwich Village.

External battery for Samsung gear live watch?
Is there an external battery available yet for the Samsung Gear Live watch? I only get 16 holes of golf with a full charge using my Golfshot app.
I have one of those Gorilla batteries in my S3 phone and it works great. I would think someone would come up with a slim battery that has the same hook up as the charger does to the watch.

Clearly not content to come in second place to the privacy-violating jerks at the Journal News, Gawker has published a list of all legal gun owners in New York City in 2010:
So lawful gun owners are "assholes"? Stay classy, Gawker.
Gun rights advocates are rightly outraged:
And some are wondering when the "real journalists" at Gawker will get to other lists:
It's gonna be a while. Hope you brought a book.
We're not sure when those who follow the law and exercise their Constitutional rights came to be considered the most vile members of our society, but it seems to us that Gawker's more than happy to have played a role in populating that bizarro notion. How absolutely disgusting.
Gawker's John Cook has modified the headline of his "article":
Nyuk-nyuk-nyuk! Pathetic.

The Necklace Character Development Through Irony and Imagery Guy de Maupassant wrote The Necklace during an era when women were under tremendous pressure to limit their potential as individuals Social class was a prominent aspect of common life and women often found themselves playing a subsidiary role in any given class Under the circumstances a woman of lower class had overwhelming odds to overcome if she was to elevate her social standing Marx Mathilde Loisel the main character of the story longs to be a member of the high society of her time Her poverty however ensures that her ambitions remain only dreams When Mathilde loses her friends necklace she not only risks the trust of the her friend but also risks losing one of the only opportunities she has to indulge in the lavish lifestyle of the upper crust of society The allure of being a part of a superior group than she was currently in was dearly important to her as it was to many women of the time who could not find an opportunity to achieve it Hartzog Aspiring to be wealthy however was the weakness that would thrust Mathilde into misery Maupassant uses the gradual deterioration of Mathildes life and character to make his point about the flaws of forcing people into a hierarchal system of social classes Lack of virtue on Mathildes part also plays a role in her woeful situation Although her decisions were also prompted by the seduction of living luxuriously if even for a moment Overall Mathilde is shaped by the irony of the situation she finds herself in and by the imagery present throughout the course of the story The irony of The Necklace can be found primarily in the manner in which Mathildes efforts to progress are actually the cause of her downfall Maupassant acting as narrator says How little a thing it takes to destroy you or to save you 10 He says
