Steve Kovach, Business Insider
I picked up my third iPhone 5 in seven months from the Apple Store in Grand Central Terminal last week.My first iPhone 5, which I bought a few weeks after the device launched in September last year, had a faulty home button that was completely unusable by January. Since it was still under warranty, Apple was happy to give me a brand new replacement device.
That one barely made it three months before the power button stopped working, meaning I couldn't switch off my iPhone's screen until it timed out automatically. Again, I took the broken device to the Apple Store and got a replacement.
This time though, I asked questions. Of course, the Apple Store employee who helped me out wasn't a spokesperson for the company, but he did have some good insight. He said a lot of people have been coming in lately with broken iPhone 5 home or power buttons and the problem has been reported up the food chain to the big shots at Apple. (My colleague Kevin Smith had a broken power button on his iPhone 5 too.)
That's not a good sign for a device that's only been on the market for about eight months. These things are supposed to last about two years, not a few months.
The experience reminded me of a recent report I read that Apple is having some problems with iPhone 5s coming out of Foxconn, the Chinese manufacturing company it contracts to build its gadgets. According to Tom's Hardware, only 80% of the iPhone 5s made at Foxconn meet Apple's quality standards. Apple's contract with Foxconn reportedly requires 90% of devices to meet those standards. Apple does its best to send the faulty devices back to Foxconn, but unfortunately some slip through the cracks.
Apparently, I was just unlucky and lightning struck me twice.?
But, assuming those reports are true, my story does demonstrate one of the biggest advantages to owning an iPhone over other devices: customer service.?
It was insanely convenient for me to take a 10-minute subway ride to my local Apple Store and get a brand new replacement iPhone. With iCloud, I had all my contacts, apps, custom settings, emails, etc. backed up. All I had to do was log in with my Apple account on my new iPhone and all that stuff magically appeared as if I was using the same device as before. (iCloud is mostly a terrible service, but the backup feature really is a lifesaver.)
Now compare that experience to buying an Android phone, Windows Phone, or BlackBerry. In most cases, you have to go through a carrier or third-party retailer like Best Buy or Radio Shack to buy those phones. And depending on the carrier or retailer, you don't get the same level of customer service that you do through Apple. Each carrier or retailer has its own warranty or insurance plan for smartphones. And backing up and restoring those devices isn't a seamless process like it is when you back up your iPhone using iCloud.
Samsung comes the closest though. The company is in the process of opening up its own mini stores within several Best Buy locations around the country. They're called Samsung Experience stores, and they're staffed by specially trained Samsung employees who can help you learn how to use your new Galaxy phone or tablet.?
But those Samsung stores still can't replace broken hardware like Apple Stores can. If your Galaxy's hardware breaks, you still have to deal with the problem through the carrier or third-party retailer. Still, it's better than anything other non-Apple phone makers can offer right now.
This is all something to consider when buying a new phone. I love some of the recent Android phones I've tested, especially the gorgeous new HTC One. But we're all human, and we all screw up our phones at some point. Apple still has the advantage over the competition when it comes to servicing your damaged phone.

India will likely use these aircraft to replace its aging aircraft and associated supply chain with new and highly reliable aircraft. The acquisition of these C-17s will not present a new capability for the Indian Air Force, but will offer an increase in airlift capacity, reliability, and safety. The C-17 will increase the ability of the GOI to mobilize troops and equipment within the country and will enable India to provide significantly increased humanitarian assistance and disaster relief support within the region. Additionally, the C-17s will facilitate enhanced standardization with the United States. India will have no difficulty absorbing these aircraft into its armed forces.

Quakes may help release methane
In a study published online recently in the journal Nature Geoscience, European researchers report that an underwater quake off Pakistan nearly 70 years ago likely fractured seafloor sediments and created pathways for methane, a potent greenhouse gas, to bubble up from below. The researchers say the phenomenon may be widespread enough that climate scientists should take it into account when estimating the amounts of heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere. "We suggest there is a new source that they might want to consider in the future," said David Fischer, a researcher at the University of Bremen in Germany and the lead author of the study.
Methane, which is formed by the decomposition of organic material, seeps from reservoirs under the seafloor in many places. But, under certain conditions, it mixes with seawater to form icy compounds, called gas hydrates, in the top layers of sediments. The hydrates act almost like cement, creating a barrier that prevents more free methane from coming up from below. Fischer and his team analysed sediment cores taken in 2007 from two locations in the northern Arabian Sea where hydrates were present and seepage was occurring. They found chemical signatures in the cores suggesting that the methane flow greatly increased sometime in the mid-20th Century. Looking through seismic records, Fischer found that a magnitude 8.1 quake occurred in the area in 1945. The quake was centered less than 15 miles from where the cores were taken, and a resulting tsunami killed up to 4,000 people. The conclusion was inescapable, Fischer said: "The quake broke open gas-hydrate sediments and the free gas underneath migrated to the surface."
The hydrates themselves did not dissolve. "They remain there," he said. Fischer said the researchers chose the core locations in the Arabian Sea because they wanted to get a better understanding of how methane seepage was related to tectonics, and the area is in an active zone where one of the Earth's tectonic plates slides beneath another. But they were not thinking about the effect of individual earthquakes, and his discovery of the 1945 quake in the records "was probably a moment I'll never forget," he said. The upward flow of methane is continuing and the researchers do not know when it might stop. All told, they estimate that nearly 10 million cubic yards of methane have been released from the core sites. But that is a conservative figure, Fischer said, because immediately after the quake, the flow would have been much higher. Joel E Johnson, a geology professor at the University of New Hampshire who was not involved in the study, said the conclusion that quakes can set off methane releases "does seem solid." Apart from monitoring gas release in real time during an earthquake — a practical impossibility — "this is about as close as you're going to get" to proving that it occurs, he said.
Scientists have studied how factors like increasing water temperatures could affect the flow of methane from the seabed, Johnson said, but those kinds of changes occur over very long periods of time. "A big part of this is the question of whether the methane gets to the atmosphere," he said. Unless the rate of flow is fast enough, methane that bubbles from the seafloor usually dissolves in the seawater before reaching the surface, he said.

I love hair. I am totally into hairy guys but when is it too much? When does it go from a preference to a kinky obsession? And how ill I know I am going overboard?
I guess I sort of have a pattern (of hair) I like... hairy chest, down the stomach to the pubes without anything on the back, sides or shoulders.
Is this asking too much or is it just oddly specific about something that might never really come my way? And what is it about hair that turns me on... is it purely aesthetic? Is it the way it looks? I mean you cant exactly run your tongue around a body covered in hair.
I think it is twirling my fingers through black swirls of curling hair that gets me going. The feel of the tickle on the palm of my hand and the scratching sound it makes when I rub it up and down just warms the cockles of my cockle.
Its just something I am into... you know...
Something I am not into, Golden Showers.
So you see, I was invited to the house of this very wealthy man. He had a great body, very shy so he did not really make too much eye contact but one drink after the other and I was back at his place. He had this huge house that I was just not expecting and for the first time I felt like a real estate whore, meaning I did not care who I was having sex with so long as it was up against those windows with that view in the foreground. Not even a kiss and I had whipped off most of my clothes, standing in a pair of jeans - I figured I should be forward and aggressive to keep the upper hand - unfortunately my dominance opened up the door to a whole other game. After a clever little sentence I was suddenly pissing in the face of this, what I thought was a, gentleman. Damn how the dark comes out!
After that I realized I was so totally not into Golden Showers, not my thing at all, and granted I did not judge the man, after all I was standing there doing the pissing for fuck sake... I just thought why the fuck am I doing this? It is not turning me on, in fact I want to laugh... at myself, for putting myself in a position where I can judge myself... Ridiculous! So I excused my drunk ass and went home. My embarrassed stupid drunk ass.
(I just need to say how funny it was to try find a good pic, typing up all the pissing things I could. Imagine my surprise when Kim Kardashian comes up when you type sexy man pissing, hahaha)
So I think saying I dig hairy guys is starting to seem a whole lot more ordinary and less kinky when you take into consideration what is actually out there. Haha
Each to their own I guess...
Happy hunting!!! (I have not said that in a while)

And with age, we tend to be less picky.

Two Days with Gwen
My Liberated Amish is almost finished. I wanted to show Gwen how Tonya has been inspiring and motivating us. Tonya, were your ears burning? Not to worry, just us over on the west coast singing your praises for your Word Play book. It was a kick to be able to show this piece to Gwen.
I started off the day with a few supplies, a quilting workshop is just like camping. One day or one week, you still have to pack a lot of stuff.
Day one was Liberated Log Cabins and the ideas and designs that emerged were amazing. It was terrific to not only be inspired by Gwens samples and books, but to see how we all had the same information and yet the individual creativity that emerged from my fellow quilters was fantastic. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be Jackie's. The soft neutrals with the bold accent was striking. I'm going to have to try this combo some day.
There is always a keener in the group :-) Fabulous finish by the end of the day. The accents carried into the border really finished this piece. I love everything about this piece.
I believe these were Merry's blocks. She brought her finished piece on Saturday, but sorry, no photo. Trust me, it was amazing. She had color, slivers of punch, curved seams. Amazing job!
Indigo Threads, aka Sharon, stayed at my house over the weekend. Having a roomie made this so much more like a retreat. We didn't cook or clean, just talked quilts all weekend long. Here is Sharons Lib Log Cabin. She even jumped off with the border. Don't you love the blue/green combo? And the dark purple just gives her work punch. Fabulous!
Here was my final layout. I love how it turned out. I've now got the center together and am pondering the border. Do I accent it with black? Do I carry the cream and red into the border? Those ideas are in the mix, but until I get some time to focus back on this piece, it will remain borderless.
There is so much to say about taking a day off work to quilt, but to have a workshop with someone as prolific as Gwen Marston, well, that was the best "mental health" day one could have. She is the most generous and funny woman. Her heart is full of love and passion for quilting and quilters. She made every one of us feel special and talented.
A HUGE shout out to Lee at Two Thimbles for making this happen, without her perseverence and dedication to bringing world class teachers to our area, this would not have happened. Thank you Lee!
Stay tuned for day two with Gwen.

I knew you would love her workshop!!! So glad you got to go and your blocks turned out great. I vote for a black border with reds and creams sneaking into the border. Everyone elses blocks are great, too.

Wow. What a great post. so many pictures and so much colour. How many were in the workshop? You are lucky...Red and White Quilts and now this! I love your log cabins. How about a skinny border of the lemon and then perhaps black. Hard to say, but show us when you decide.

Hey Auntie S,
Even though I don't know much about quilting I vote black border ... I think it would really make the colors pop! Can't wait to see a picture of the final product, looks amazing so far!

Rub a dub dub, sock monkey in the tub (print and invitation)
Quite possibly, I channeled the colors I want to do in the kids' bathroom for this print. I want to paint the cabinets black and dress the window & shower in white. The stone tile is light and would bring in pops of charcoal and light grey. It's a boy/girl/guest bath so it needs to be pretty and functional (meaning I need to hide their messes the best way I can for those unexpected pop in visitors). I am considering changing this print for their bathroom to THREE monkeys in a tub and hanging it in when I'm done with painting. I'm in love with how it turned out!

Sock Monkey First Birthday Invitation by Oh My Gluestick
Sock Monkeys are special to us in the A household. So naturally when my baby turned one this year, I had to create something special and it absolutely had to be sock monkey themed. Of course! I didn't want a photo to overpower the invitation and had this vision of my sweet little baby in his high chair enjoying his first ever taste of chocolate and first ever cake. That was the inspiration of the design and it fell in to place perfectly. Party pictures to come later (er...eventually). Original design by Oh My Gluestick.

Party Like a Rock Star: Bling Invitation
You're never too young or too old to party like a rock star. Well....actually I'm not sure that's true. My kids can really put me to shame and all three are under the age of 7. They can stay up late and wake up at the crack of dawn with the energy and appetite of 20 men. Recently hubby and I went on a date. We went to the House of Blues for drinks and dinner, then off to Coldplay for one of the most amazing concerts I've ever attended. We didn't go home from there (as we probably should have) but instead just enjoyed each other and had a taste of what it's like to date each other and hold one another's attention without interruption from three little people and all that entails. We finished up at a bar after the concert where we met some pretty interesting people (most of which were younger than me, of course) and then headed to our hotel room. Flash to the next morning when the sun came blaring through the window like an evil assassin stabbing me in the head with tiny, bright knives. I then determined (like I didn't already know) that Mama can no longer party like a rock star. I'm a mommy and though it doesn't necessarily define me, it certainly grounds me and I love this life. I don't miss the bars, the dehydration, and the stabbing sun assassins invading my room to punish me for staying out to late and having one more cocktail than I should have. I like waking up to a room full of kids and a bed full of pillow thieves with feet in my face and someone always grabbing one of my boobs. As much fun as I had, I paid the price and I wouldn't trade my current life for the life of a rock star any day. That said, our anniversary is coming up and I'm sure I'll forget about the sun assassins when hubby and I are celebrating our amazing life. (wink) Original design by Oh My Gluestick.

I start so many books and then get distracted. I've just read The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. It is the story of Jean-Dominique Bauby, who wrote the book by blinking the letters of the alphabet because he was paralysed everywhere else. It is strange how uplifting it is to read – it makes you appreciate the small things in life. The other book I've read is The Road by Cormac McCarthy. It is about the end of the world, and describes a journey taken by a father and son. As post-apocalyptic survivors, they wander through America. It's quite a long book but is aimless because what are they walking towards? They are walking to stay alive. Both of these books get to the root of what it means to be alive.
I saw the black-and-white animated film Persepolis; I still don't know why it is called that. It follows the life of a young Iranian girl during the Islamic Revolution. It looks like a kids' cartoon but is very powerful and rooted in reality. I also saw two films by Lynne Ramsay: Ratcatcher and Morvern Callar. Ratcatcher is pretty depressing, about a kid growing up on a poor Scottish council estate. Morvern Callar is a little more humorous.
I saw Lambchop's Kurt Wagner performing solo; it was beautiful. He has this rich baritone voice and plays guitar. I've been listening to his solo record Kurt loads ever since. With these wonderful lyrics and deep voice, it sounds like late summer evenings. I've also been listening to Leonard Cohen's Songs from a Room, but I want to get back into electronic music, to lose myself in songs like "Nannou" by Aphex Twin. I really like Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds' new album, Dig!!! Lazarus Dig!!!. It's irreverent, loud and unpolished. I also like beach house – more relaxed, lazy music.
Visual arts
I find it hard going to art galleries because I find it a cold environment. I feel as if I am being watched for a reaction. That's why I liked the Louise Bourgeois exhibition at Tate Modern – it gave you a more intimate environment to wander round in.
The Guillemots' new single 'Falling Out of Reach' is out on 26 May on Universal

East Peak Fire Containment Remains at 50%
The estimated size of the East Peak Fire burning in Huerfano County is now 13,491 acres with 50% containment, and Walsenburg is no longer under a pre-evacuation notice. All other evacuation notices remain in effect. Cool weather helped the night shift in detecting heat. The night crew also continued some mop up and conducted burn out operations to help reduce the amount of remaining pockets of fuel, decreasing the likelihood of fuels igniting during today's Red Flag day. A community meeting is scheduled for today, June 25th at La Veta Town Park at 7 PM.

Meet Jockey Jerry La Sala!
By M. Scott McMannis
Jerry La Sala has always been an athlete.� He lettered as a baseball centerfielder all four years of high school, and was a decent ice hockey center, as well.� �The great Dennis Savard occasionally played in my circle of friends,� offered La Sala.� �One time he put on the goalie equipment and I scored a goal on him, which is a pretty neat memory.�
La Sala is a product of Fenton High School in Bensenville, Illinois, Class of �78.� His family moved to Bensenville from Chicago, where Jerry was born, when he was four years old.� He continues to reside there with Nancy, his wife of 23 years, and their 17-year-old daughter, Dina.
After graduating from Fenton, La Sala would visit friends working at the racetrack.� In time he met trainers Joe �Spanky� Broussard and Jim Fedor.� One thing led to another and La Sala became an exercise rider for Broussard and Fedor.
�For two years, galloping horses was actually my second job,� clarified La Sala.� �I was working for Flying Tigers, the air freight company, on the midnight shift, loading pallets of freight.� When I finished my shift I would go to the track and gallop.�
�I took out my jockey license in 1980, and on September 14 Spanky put me on Stiletto for my first race ride,� La Sala continued.� �Soon after, at Hawthorne, Jim Fedor put me on my first career winner, Not Noble Enough.�
La Sala continued riding in Chicago then added Detroit Race Course (DRC) to his circuit.� �I would go there every summer in the late 80�s,� explained La Sala.� �I rode a lot for James Jackson who was often referred to as the King of DRC.�� One year La Sala finished third in the jockey standings at DRC.
La Sala has ridden for a number of high-profile trainers in Chicago, as well, such as Richard Hazelton, Carl Nafzger, J. J. �Buddy� Sarner, and J. D. Frederickson.
Perhaps the most effective partnership has been with Team Calabrese/Catalano, certainly in quality if not in quantity.� In 2004 La Sala had six wins from 10 mounts for that Team.� �In 2005 the win rate edged up from 60% to 64% when La Sala had seven wins from 11 Calabrese/Catalano mounts.� Said Team Calabrese/Catalano Racing Manager Steve Leving, �Jerry La Sala is the consummate professional.� He can be relied upon to do the job you want done in the morning, and in the afternoon.�
La Sala�s career took an unexpected twist last November when fellow jockey Randy Meier nominated La Sala for the interim board of directors of the Jockey Guild.� �It�s an honor to serve and do my part to see the Guild come together as a unified group,� stated La Sala, proudly.� La Sala serves with Alex Solis, John Velasquez, Jon Court, Jeff Johnson, Mike Luzzi, and Mark Guidry.
�But, it�s a lot of work,� La Sala quickly added.� �My wife and I have also served on the Disabled Jockeys Committee for a year and a half.� On most Mondays and Tuesdays there are conference calls or meetings in Kentucky or Florida that I must attend.� Our time commitment has been great, but we believe strongly in the Guild and they work they do for members.
�However, the downside is, I�ve lost business by missing so many Monday and Tuesday race days,� explained La Sala.� �Therefore, I�ll conclude my tenure on the board when my term is up in July.�
Then centerfielder-turned-jockey La Sala can get back to shagging mounts.

After I went through a confidential health history and exam with my patients, I would sit back and ask them, "What do you think the problem is?" I did not want to know what someone else told them; I did not want to know what they thought I wanted to hear. I wanted to know exactly what they thought.
The deeper I probed, the problem always related back to an emotional attachment. The typical emotional attachments involved a discontented job, an unhappy relationship, difficulties with a child, death of a loved one, disgust with where they were in Life, the feeling of having no purpose, the fear of their health not getting any better. And the list goes on and on.
For a more enriching experience, go down on your knees to pray or take it one step further and prostrate yourself (lay face down) on the floor while praying.
Even if a patient had carpal tunnel syndrome from repetitive use, I never heard a patient say they loved the job that made them feel bad.
Over and over again we sit in situations that do not make us feel happy or satisfied. Many times we sit around wishing for change, rather than praying with faith that a miracle can and will take place. The wishing continues and the situation remains the same. Why?
When I was a kid and wanted to go roller skating, I asked my mom. When I wanted money to get in to the roller skating rink, I asked my dad. Either way, I couldn't go or get in if I didn't ask. And the reason why we dare to ask in the first place is because we honestly "believe" that our request will be answered affirmatively.
In Matthew 7:7-8 - Jesus said, "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye
shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you; For every one that
asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, it
shall be opened.
In Matthew 21:21-22 - Jesus said, " . . also if ye shall say unto this
mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.
And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall
Now, how easy it that? We have to ask. Words like, "I wish and I hope" do
not work. Do you want a miracle? Then ask for it!
I don't know about you, but when I wanted something for Christmas and I told
Santa, I woke up Christmas morning believing it was under the tree. Why do
we have such faith in a Santa Claus to deliver and not in God?
He's saying in your prayers, believe you already have it. Believe it is
here. Now this is Faith in its finest hour.
Matthew 6:6 - Jesus also said, "But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy
closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in
secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly."
Jesus lays it out simply. Pray in quiet, ask and it will manifest where you
can see it.
Matthew 6:7 - Jesus said clearly, "But when ye pray, use not vain
repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for
their much speaking."
In other words, asking over and over and over again is not having much Faith
in power of the spoken word to God. You ask once and from there on out you
are sitting in gratitude and thanksgiving. After you have asked, believing
you have received it, everything else is thanking God that your prayer has
been answered.
The rules of prayer are simple and straightforward. Ask in private, believe
you have it and be open to receiving.
Jesus instructs us how to pray. He says after you have prayed quietly and
asked, and believe you are receiving then pray this prayer.
Matthew 6:6-13 - He says, "After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father
which art in Heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy Kindgom come, Thy will be
done in earth, as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And
forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into
temptation, but deliver us from evil: For Thine is the Kingdom, and the
Power, and the Glory, forever. Amen."
So again, the rules are simple. After you have prayed quietly, asked and
believe, then you always say the Lord's Prayer at the end of your prayers.
Our Father which art in Heaven (we are speaking to God in Heaven) . . .
Hallowed be thy name (sacred is God's name) . . . Thy kingdom come (the
kingdom of Heaven awaits) . . . Thy will be done in earth, as it is in Heaven
(everything will be done in Divine Perfection in Divine Time) . . . Give us
this day our daily bread (not tomorrow or some time in the near future, this
day means today) . . . and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors
(in other words, we are saying forgive me in the same way I forgive others) .
. . and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil (do not bring
temptation near me, in fact, keep all evil away from me) . . . For thine is
the Kingdom and the Power and the Glory forever (this is how we gain power by
knowing our source, God is our source of Power). Amen.
Be sure to follow up all of your prayers with the Lord's Prayer. There is a
lot of praise and thanksgiving in this prayer, and so much to be thankful for.
A kajillion blessings to all of you.

The Spoiler's Richard Gilzene has the latest. Advertisement It's a general rule amongst sensible managers never to buy a player based on World Cup performance alone. However, Paul the Psychic Octopus' 100% prediction rate at this year's tournament has proven too tempting for the animal-lovers (and avid gamblers, probably) over at Spain's Zoo Aquarium, who have reportedly made a transfer bid described as 'too good to refuse'.According to reports in the Telegraph, the Madrid zoo is hoping to make Paul its star attraction after the eight-legged sage destined Spain for World Cup glory last week. They're taking it all very seriously as well, claiming to 'improve on any offer' after already bidding an unspecified amount of cash and even trying to negotiate a part-exchange swap deal to make sure they got their man mollusc: Advertisement "The zoo also guarantees that Paul will receive the best attention, reflecting the great affection in which he is held by all the Spanish people since he predicted that the Spanish team would win the football World Cup," said Zoo spokeswoman Amparo Fernandez."We hope that within the next few days we will be able to confirm news that the admirable Paul will be part of the club of the most loved and charismatic animals of the Madrid Zoo."However, the owners of Paul's current home in Oberhausen are adamant he's not for sale. Says Tanja Munzig, spokeswoman for the Sea Life aquarium:"We are not in contact with Madrid Zoo. And we know nothing about swapping Paul for another animal or him going to Madrid Zoo for a transfer sum."Ooh, it's just like watching the Cesc to Barcelona saga. Expect grainy video footage of a Spain scarf being draped over Paul's tank to surface within the next few days.

Midori Snyder is the author of nine books for children and adults, published in English, French, Dutch, and Italian. She won the Mythopoeic Award for The Innamorati, a novel inspired by early Roman myth and the Italian "Commedia dell'Arte" tradition. Other novels include The Flight of Michael McBride (a mythic western), Soulstring (a lyrical fairy tale), The Oran Trilogy: New Moon, Sadar's Keep, and Beldan's Fire (imaginary–world fantasy), and Hannah's Garden (a contemporary faery novel for young adult readers). Her most recent novel is Except the Queen, a contemporary faery novel for adult readers, co-authored with Jane Yolen.
Midori's short stories have appeared in numerous venues including The Armless Maiden; Black Thorn, White Rose; Xanadu III; Swan Sister; Borderland; and The Year's Best Fantasy and Horror. Her nonfiction has appeared in Realms of Fantasy and other magazines, and in essay collections including Mirror, Mirror on the Wall: Women Writers Explore Their Favorite Fairy Tales.
Midori is the daughter of Emile Snyder, a French poet who taught in the field of Contemporary African Literature, and Jeanette Snyder, an American scholar of Ethnomusicology and Central Asian studies whose speciality was Lahmo, Tibetan folk opera. Her grandmother, Jeanette Mahoney Westergaard, was a Hollywood script writer, while her Breton grandfather, Pierre Menagér, was a well–known sculptor and print maker who worked in Santa Fe and Taos in the 1940s and 1950s. Midori grew up amid visiting scholars, Beat poets, Indian and Tibetan musicians, African and French authors, and a small town population–worth of graduate students and professors. She has lived in university towns across the U.S., as well as abroad in Africa and Italy. She studied African Languages and Literature at the University of Wisconsin, specializing in African oral narrative traditions, although she finally received her M.A. degree (after raising two children) in English Literature and Literary Theory. Midori's multicultural background gives her fiction its distinctive flavor, inspired by the myths, folkways, and cultures of peoples around the world.
In addition to writing, Midori is the co-director of The Endicott Studio, co-editor of The Journal of Mythic Arts (winning a World Fantasy Award for this work); and web designer for Endicott and JoMA. She has taught English at a Jesuit high school in Wisconsin; Creative Writing at the American School in Milan, Italy; and was the jury chairwoman for the 2007 James Tiptree, Jr. Awards. She currently lives in Tucson, Arizona, with her husband, Stephen Haessler.

Glad they are becoming friends. Knew Ani would come around. Seems he gets more handsome each day!
Sandy Hello...I came over here from The Cat on My Head blog to follow your blog as one of her nominees for the Liebster award, but most of all because my son's name (4years old) is Anakin...while he sits right next to me right now he is totally moved and in love with "the feline version of him" Wish I live closer so we could visit. Our own two cats, Tango and Cash are adopted too. Pleae keep us posted with pictures of Ani ( I call mine just like that too..how funny!) from our two legged wild one to yours..warm regards and a hug! Lizy @http://justdipitinchocolate.blogspot.com/

What are Feliway plug ins? I haven't known about them until you mentioned them. Maybe this problem will get solved after Ani's operation. Does Mika need an operation too? They are so sweet together. Am hoping for "best friends" ending! Love, hugs and purrs, Kathy
