Paul Harris of the Observer of London tells the story of Timothy Kurek, author of The Cross in the Closet. Kurkek, an evangelical Christian and graduate of the late Jerry Falwell's Liberty University, spent a year pretending to be gay. Kurek grew up believing that being gay "was an abomination before God," Harris writes. But when
a Christian friend in a karaoke bar told him how her family had kicked her out when she revealed she was a lesbian, Kurek began to question profoundly his beliefs and religious teaching. Amazingly, the 26-year-old decided to "walk in the shoes" of a gay man in America by pretending to be homosexual.
For an entire year Kurek lived "under cover" as a homosexual in his home town of Nashville. He told his family he was gay, as well as his friends and his church. Only two pals and an aunt – used to keep an eye on how his mother coped with the news – knew his secret. One friend, a gay man called Shawn – whom Kurek describes as a "big black burly teddy bear" – pretended to be his boyfriend. Kurek got a job in a gay cafe, hung out in a gay bar and joined a gay softball league, all the while maintaining his inner identity as a straight Christian.
The result was a remarkable book called The Cross in the Closet, which follows on the tradition of other works such as Black Like Me, by a white man in the 1960s deep south passing as a black American, and 2006's Self-Made Man, by Norah Vincent, who details her time spent in disguise living as a man. "In order to walk in their shoes, I had to have the experience of being gay. I had to come out to my friends and family and the world as a gay man," he told the Observer.
Read the whole story to find out how his friends and family reacted. What is your reaction to Kurek's experiment and his current views on LGBT issues?

Over at Huff Post, many commented on the book's appeal because it was written by a straight, white, Christian male while LGBT people telling this same story for decades have been considered less newsworthy. My response for what it's worth:
"Indeed. However, heteros are the best persons to have the conversation with others of their kind. It is not the sole responsibility of LGBT folks to tell the story of how they are being hurt; straights must be willing to talk…straight…to each other. When heteros refuse to engage the conversation among themselves they free themselves to see it as a "Gay Issue" that can be dismissed. Which is a crock. The triumphalist Christians want to remember this: Americans have let laws stand that result in loss of civil rights for some of us, and straights have benefited from an evil straight from the Father of Lies. In a society where this is allowed to stand NO ONE's civil rights are truly safe."
Well sure if you think you have the only possible right answer. But that's not a stance that anyone who is genuinely interested in "conversation" had ever better take. Because if you believe that, there's no point in talking to you at all if you think that we need to keep babbling until I agree with you.
"the book's appeal because it was written by a straight, white, Christian male while LGBT people telling this same story for decades have been considered less newsworthy"
Or, more to the point, less TRUSTworthy.
That's been the dig on Black Like Me, and its ilk: the notion that you need to have a non-member to tell the tale of the marginalized group, because the marginalized group is inherently NON-trustworthy ("Oh, you're just MAKING UP all your discrimination and suffering." Or, "you're imagining it").
In 2012, do we REALLY still need this kind of "I (from the non-marginalized) can prove THEY aren't all lying" memoir? O_o
JC Fisher
Thanks JC. Amen and Amen, again!
I'm really uncomfortable with the idea of pretend gay people, and I have problems with someone making a buck off of it, too.
I also found it odd that he said he needed a pretend boyfriend for "protection" when another man hit on him. He could, of course, just have said, "No, thanks."
Bill Dilworth
The more I think about this, the more uncomfortable I become. It's the lying to his mother bit that really gets me. Coming out is about honesty, not lying to those around you in the pursuit of some "greater good."

Thank you for the question.
In our practice, we use Care Credit as well as other companies; they have been used by our patients with no problems. They do have different rates so please make sure you get all of the information you need prior to signing up with any financing company.
Generally speaking, it is always in patients' best interests to achieve a certain degree of financial stability prior to undergoing elective surgery of any type. Patients should also keep in mind that additional surgery may be necessary in the short or long term, following the primary procedure that is being performed; this additional surgery may be associated out-of-pocket expenses. Again, best to achieve a physical, emotional, psychosocial, and financial "stable state" prior to considering elective plastic surgery. Best wishes.

Financing is usually a couple hundred of dollars/monthly

Carecredit is usually best for higher credit individuals. I would best suggest medicalfinancing.com as they work with subprime borrowers. They have lenders that will finance you via your employment verification and income verification. That would be my best suggestion.

I would like to thank you for your article recognizing a significant milestone: Christians United for Israel having crossed the half-million member mark ("The Biggest Pro-Israel Group in America? That's Us, Says Christians United," December 17).
I would also like to elaborate on a few points.
The article's sub-headline asserts that "some" feel our "definition of membership is expansive." However, in the Evangelical Christian community (and increasingly in any organization with an active Internet following) tying membership to payment is unusual. All Zionists, regardless of their ability to contribute, are welcome to join CUFI.
Your article accurately notes our estimate that in recent years only approximately 5% of the funds John Hagee Ministries donates annually to Israeli causes go to organizations over the Green Line. But I would like to further note that John Hagee Ministries aims to ensure its donations are given to communities that almost all observers agree will remain part of Israel in the event of a negotiated two-state resolution to the conflict, and that all donations in this context support social services and education, not settlement expansion.
Your article also discusses CUFI's opposition to American pressure on Israel, but focuses on issues related to settlements. CUFI's opposition to American pressure on Israel is rooted in the belief that only the democratically elected government of Israel has the right to decide matters of war and peace for the Jewish state. While CUFI has opposed pressure on Israel to make territorial concessions that Israelis themselves do not wish to make, CUFI is not focused on the narrower issue of settlement construction.
Finally, while your article discusses various past comments made by CUFI's founder, Pastor John Hagee, it fails to note Hagee's subsequent apologies, clarifications or significant outreach efforts to the relevant communities.

Kierkegaard: A Very Short Introduction

BeschreibungScholars have largely misunderstood Soren Kierkegaard, remembering him chiefly in connection with the development of existentialist philosophy in this century. In a short and unhappy life, he wrote many books and articles on literary, satirical, religious and psychological themes, but the diversity and idiosyncratic style of his writing have contributed to a misunderstanding of his ideas. In this book--the only introduction to the full range of Kierkegaard's thought--Patrick Gardiner demonstrates how Kierkegaard developed his ideas and examines his thoughts in light of the doctrines on society developed by his contemporaries Marx and Feuerbach. Finally, he assesses the profound importance of Kierkegaard's ideas on the development of modern ways of thinking.

'Aurangzeb' Tweet Review: First day, first show
'Aurangzeb' revolves around a family which is infamous for their involvement in land scams.
New Delhi: After a satisfactory performance in 'Ishaqzaade', Arjun Kapoor is returning to silver screens with another crime saga 'Aurangzeb'. Directed by Atul Sabharwal, the film also features Sasheh Agha, Prithviraj Sukumaran, Rishi Kapoor, Jackie Shroff and Amrita Singh.
'Aurangzeb' revolves around a family which is infamous for their involvement in land scams. The next generation of the controllers of the dreaded real estate business is determined to change the rules of the game. However, it doesn't seem easy as the experienced family heads have their own ways of dealing with misdirected youths.
A lot will depend on 'Aurangzeb' for Arjun Kapoor as expectations are high from him, especially when he was liked in a similar role. Sasheh Agha would also like to do something more than just looking glamorous. It's also a chance for Prithviraj to carve a separate niche for himself in Bollywood. The audience will also see Amrita Singh in action after a long time.
Rohit Vats of IBNLive wass inside the theatre to live tweet the experience of 'Aurangzeb'.
9:46 AM: Stay tuned for the tweet review of #Aurangzeb.
9:47 AM: #Aurangzeb is directed by Atul Sabharwal and features Arjun Kapoor in double role.
9:48 AM: #Aurangzeb also stars Prithviraj, Sasheh Agha, Rishi Kapoor and Jackie Shroff in important roles.
9:50 AM: The audience will get a chance to watch Amrita Singh on the big screen after a long gap in #Aurangzeb.
9:51 AM: #Aurangzeb is expected to feature rival families involved in the business of real estate development.
9:54 AM: A lot depends on #Aurangzeb for Arjun. He was liked in a cynical role in Ishaqzaade but he needs to show other sides of his acting as well.
9:58 AM: #Aurangzeb will also give Prithviraj a chance to showcase his talent to the Hindi film audience. Sikandar Kher is also in the film.
10:00 AM: What are your expectations from #Aurangzeb? Will it turn out to be a gripping drama?
10:08 AM: These days writers don't take more than 2-3 scenes to establish a story. #Aurangzeb directly comes to the theme.
10:22 AM: The film is set in the backdrop of Delhi-NCR. The director has tried hard to make #Aurangzeb a gritty film.
10:30 AM: Rishi Kapoor is frequently experimenting with his characters these days. #Aurangzeb takes the trend forward.
10:35 AM: Barbadiyaan mithi lage ye azadiyaan. Sasheh Agha is responsible for the glamour quotient of #Aurangzeb.
10:42 AM: Plots are changing very fast in #Aurangzeb but actors need to adjust with the pace of the film.
10:48 AM: Sometimes emotions are not allowed to unfold in the name of style. #Aurangzeb
11:00 AM: Dialect is not exactly as per the backdrop. Atul Sabharwal is required to take care of the secondary characters. #Aurangzeb
11:12 AM: A gangster flick becomes a credible film when it displays the human side of the people involved in the bad business. #Aurangzeb
11:15 AM: #Aurangzeb has a very powerful scene involving Rishi Kapoor and Deepti Naval. These actors will never lose their charm.
11:20 AM: This story has potential. Nobody is innocent in #Aurangzeb and that makes it interesting.
11:28 AM: This is another gem of a role from Rishi Kapoor. He has brought brilliant nuances to his character. #Aurangzeb
11:34 AM: The film is heading towards the climax. More action packed scenes are waiting the audience. #Aurangzeb
11:38 AM: #Aurangzeb has become quite an engaging film. Hope the climax fits the story.
11:45 AM: Arjun Kapoor has come forward from where he left in Ishaqzaade. #Aurangzeb is full of schemes and moles.
11:49 AM: The underbelly of the real estate business in NCR has been presented in a masala manner. #Aurangzeb
11:55 AM: There is something in Amrita Singh's manner. She is menacing. #Aurangzeb
11:56 AM: The last thing the audience would want is a predictable end. #Aurangzeb
12:01 PM: The ultimate game has begun. This Rishi Kapoor hasn't been seen before. #Aurangzeb
12:06 PM: There are unintended funny scenes in the climax. They dilute the intensity. #Aurangzeb
12:09 PM: The dragged ending has affected the film. #Aurangzeb
12:16 PM: The director has tried his best to give #Aurangzeb a philosophical finish but it takes a lot of time.
12:26 PM: Acting wise, #Aurangzeb belongs to Rishi Kapoor. Arjun Kapoor and Prithviraj are good though Arjun seemed trying hard in some scenes.
12:27 PM: Atul Sabharwal has picked a good theme but the dragged climax takes some charm from #Aurangzeb.
12:29 PM: The director is also confused about the screen space of characters. They are many in number. #Aurangzeb
12:32 PM: The film is engaging till the climax. The research part is also good. #Aurangzeb
12:34 PM: The film is a new take on family rivalry and has its own moments. #Aurangzeb
12:35 PM: Overall, #Aurangzeb is a gritty thriller with a brand new Rishi Kapoor. A good watch this weekend.
12:36 PM: Thanks for being with us throughout the tweet review of #Aurangzeb. Stay tuned for more.

Finding the brain's common language
By Erin Wayman, 16:24 PM September 25, 2013
Erich Jarvis dreams of creating a talking chimpanzee. If his theories on language are right, that just might happen one day.
Jarvis says that the ability to imitate sounds, not higher intelligence, is the key to language. Most animals are born already knowing the calls they'll croon, but human babies learn words by mimicking how others talk. "I argue it's what makes spoken language unique," says Jarvis, a neurobiologist at Duke University Medical Center.
That realization came from an unlikely p...

SCDA Approves Budget Proposal
The Stephens County Development Authority has its budget proposal in place for the next fiscal year.
Tuesday, the Development Authority unanimously approved a proposed budget of $360,000 to submit with its budget request to both the city of Toccoa and Stephens County.
Development Authority Executive Director Tim Martin said this approved proposal comes after spending the past couple of months looking at the budget and includes no major changes from last year's budget for the agency.
"What we have adopted is in line with past years' requests and it aligns with our strategic plan," said Martin.
Martin said the Development Authority's strategic plan covers three main areas.
"We have a very strong effort to reach out and be attractive, recruit companies to our community," said Martin. "We have a very aggressive program to work with and support and encourage our existing industries and then the third leg to the stool is marketing and communicating," said Martin.
Martin said that marketing includes a social media and web presence.
He added that besides those efforts, the Development Authority spends time and resources focusing on the product of Toccoa and Stephens County.
"Are we making sure we have the sanitary sewer, the water, the broadband, and all of those other features that companies are going to be desirous of?" said Martin.
The Development Authority will now wait to hear from the city of Toccoa and Stephens County about how much funding each entity will provide to the Development Authority for that budget.
The city and county will both make that decision as part of their budgets, which will be approved on or before June 30 for the next fiscal year.

Men's Tennis Drops Match at No. 57 Cal Poly
Feb. 2, 2013
SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. - After defeating a ranked opponent last weekend, the No. 64 San Diego State Men's Tennis team was unable to repeat its performance on Saturday, losing its dual match to No. 57 Cal Poly, 6-1.
"It was a tough day on the road," SDSU head coach Gene Carswell said.
The SDSU No. 2 doubles team of senior Derek Siddiqui and sophomore Andranik Khachatryan earned an 8-5 doubles victory over Matt Thomsen and Gannon Daynes, but it wasn't enough to win the doubles point. The Aztecs No. 1 team of sophomore Thorsten Bertsch and junior Hunter Nicholas had a narrow defeat to the Cal Poly duo of Andre Dome and Jordan Bridge, 8-7 (4), while the No. 3 team of sophomore Spencer Simon and junior Shiva Sangwan fell to Marco Comuzzo and Naveen Beasley, 8-5.
Bertsch picked up the Aztecs only singles victory in the No. 2 spot, defeating Comuzzo 7-6 (6), 6-2. The remaining SDSU singles players each lost in straight sets, including Siddiqui, the current Mountain West Player of the Week, and No. 123 Khachatryan. Siddiqui lost to No. 89 Dome, 6-1, 6-2, in No.1 singles, while Khachatryan fell to Derek Klein, 6-3, 6-4, in the No. 4 slot.
The next match for SDSU (3-2) is on the road at Fresno State on Friday, Feb. 8, beginning at 2 p.m. PT.

Solid Motor Mount Inserts: From KFX Performance
Video: From Sony s710 Camera Phone
Tools Needed:
14mm Socket
17mm Socket
14mm Wrench (optional)
17mm Wrench
Jack Stands
First, you need to get the car jacket up in the front. Place the Jackstands alone the runners behind the front wheels for support. Lower the jack and remove.
Next, undo the 4 motor mount bolts (14mm) on the center cross member.
Then, take the jack and place it under the oil pan opposite side to the drain plug. Jack it up and slightly raise the engine. This is just to take the weight off the cross member since it has to be take off and to support the engine. (See Pic below)
After the engine is supported, then you can remove the 4 (17mm) bolts holding up the cross member which is on the floor in the pic above. These bolts were on kinda tight and required some leg muscle to loosen them. if you have an impact gun, it should be an issue.
Next you will need the 17mm socket and 17mm wrench to remove the bolt holding the Motor Mounts in place.
Here you will see my front Motor Mount was split in the center, which explained the constant jerking of the car when changing gears.
A Comparison od the OEM and Solid Motor Mounts:
At this point, it is up to you on your method to swap out the mounts. Options include soaking in Lye overnight, Having a machine shop press them, or using a drill and various other tools to take the mounts out yourself (method I chose).
Once its done, Your Mounts will look something like this:
Now its a matter of putting it all back on. For this, I chose this direction.
I bolted the Motor Mounts back in the bracket that is attached to the engine and tranny. I did not tighten it down.
Then I bolted in the rear 2 bolts for the center cross member but left some slack for movement to adjust.
Then I bolted in the front 2 cross member bolts. In my case, it seems the engine had shifted a little. So by playing with the jack to raise up the engine a little more and by pushing up on the tranny pan, I was able to get the front bolts in. This may not be an issue with others, but if it is, this is just a way to approach the matter.
Once the 4 cross member bolts are in place, tighten them down.
Next, replace the 4 Motor Mount bolts on the cross member and tighten them down. At this point, you may or may not need to shift the engien slightly from above to get the Motor Mount bracket flush. But tightening the botls down should do the trick as well.
After this is completed, not you can tighten the Motor Mount Bolts I said earlier (attached to Engine and Tranny bracket).
Finished Product shoudl look something like this:
Here is a small video of the engine running. Hopefully, you can tell there is abesolutely no engine movement...
Engine (Needs Quicktime)
***Note: Installation of these Motor Mounts will create Major Cabin vibration and noise from withing the car. It is extremely noticable when taking off from a stop and acceleration when driving on street. When driving on freeways and speeds are faster, this vibration and noise is non existant.
These mounts do prevent Wheel hop and Does transfer the Hp and Tq much much better to the wheels than experienced with OEM motor Mounts.
I myself was quite suprised at the difference these mounts made. Even what other have said about them was nothing compared to what they actually feel like. The first time i put my car in drive and took off to 2mph, it felt like my tranny was grinding gears.. that is just an idea of how rough and noisy it is. These do take time to get use to and defiantely a new apprach to minimizing the time you experience the inital vibrations and noise. This Mod definately creates a big suprise for someone who has never used or been in a Car with Solid Motor Mounts.
In the end, I am happy with how well they preform in smooth gear changes and keeping the tracion of the Tq and tires to the road. ***

What Would You Condition Your Puppy to if You Could Go Back in Time?
I'd condition mine to a muzzle, to nail clipping, to brushing and to ear treatments. I'd also have worked very hard on eliminating or at least making a big deal out of puppy biting.
His nails aren't a problem but the other issues really are. I think if I'd have known then what I know now about his behavior I'd have done more conditioning on these issues. But we were focusing on bathing him, teaching him to swim (previous dog almost drowned as a yearlin) and getting him to just heel and respond to simple commands, instead.
Now, Zeus is a problem dog on these other issues.
How about the rest of you. Are there things you'd have pre-empted with conditioning during the puppy stage?

Stewart, Pattinson crowned top earning romantic film couple
By Patricia Reaney
NEW YORK (Reuters) - With three box office hits earning $1.17 billion at the U.S. box office over the past three years, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are Hollywood's highest-grossing romantic film couple.
The stars of the "Twilight" vampire films easily surpassed all other film twosomes in the Forbes list that looked at the top 10 grossing romantic films of the last three years.
"There is something unique about these films in the way that people have attached themselves to them," said Dorothy Pomerantz of Forbes.com.
"The movies are unconventional, and you have the added element that the two people are a couple in real life," she added.
Stewart and Pattinson's off-screen romance and breakup following Stewart's affair with Rupert Sanders, the married director of her film "Snow White and the Huntsman," fueled interest in the couple, who reportedly reunited ahead of the release of the final film in the popular "Twilight" series based on the novels by Stephenie Meyer.
Forbes compiled the list by looking at the top-grossing romantic films in the United States in the past three years as classified by Box Office Mojo. They added the totals for each couple's U.S. box office.
The last three films in the "Twilight" series, "Eclipse," "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1" and "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2," were included in the box office calculations.
Channing Tatum, who was voted People magazine's sexiest man alive in 2012, and "The Vow" co-star Rachel McAdams came in second, with the film earning $125 million domestically, as well as $71 million overseas. Continued...

My other comments notwithstanding, I too find Lind's work interesting and useful.
William Marina - 1/10/2005
Stay tuned for my next comments on Mr. Lind's work. He tells us that FGWar can only take place within a context of a FGWorld, and urges us to go back to the 14th century.
Since Raimondo accued me of being not of this Earth, right now I am whirling back thru time-space, hoping I don't get the Black Plague!
M.D. Fulwiler - 1/10/2005
Well, I find Lind interesting and would read his columns even if they were not carried on libertarian sites. My two cents...
William Marina - 1/9/2005
Hi Chris & Geoffrey,
Yes, the death squads are like the Phoenix Program in Vietnam and what we did in Nicaragua.
The really bad news is, we have never really stopped doing it. A Prof. friend of mine heard from one of his former graduate students, who had done this kind of stuff in 'Nam. In he was called back to do this kind of sniper assassination work in Afghanistan.
I'm pretty certain that will remain a part of our counter-insurgency warfare as it was in the Philippines, whatever part of Mr. Lind's 4th Generation Warfare the military might adopt.
Oh well, all part of "Rational Warfare," right!
Bill Marina
Geoffrey Allan Plauche - 1/9/2005
I'd rather not find out...but probably much lower.
As I recently commented in Mr. Marina's previous post:
It seems to me that his critics are missing his main point on Lind. (I'm not saying Mr. Marina is right here, though I think he might be.) It seems to me that he sees Lind as writings handbooks for the US military that they will be able to use in war to more effectively defeat insurgents (not just terrorists but any and all insurgents). I've read some of Lind's stuff, so I can't say definitively if this is true, but from what I have read it seems at least plausible. Might Lind's research be used effectively by freedom fighters? Most certainly. But is his work primarily for freedom fighters or for the US military? That is the question.
I too find the idea of giving any State military better strategies and tactics for squashing insurgencies very disturbing. Such strategies and tactics will only make State warfare more effective. And don't be surprised when the State turns these strategies and tactics on freedom loving individuals at home and abroad! Contra Raimondo, it is not pacifism to be worried about that.
chris l pettit - 1/9/2005
how atrocious is the news that we are exploring death squads like those used in Nicaragua and El Salvador? The ICJ has already denounced the US on the issue and it is totally illegal. This administration has sunk to the level of Pinochet...how much lower can it go?

Top Ten Tuesday: Advice for New Bloggers
The Broke and the Bookish hosts Top Ten Tuesdays, and this week they've got a great topic to talk about. We are asked to give our top tips and advice to new bloggers. I am no veteran, but I have been happily blogging for over two years now... so maybe I've got some tips you'd like to keep in mind while working on your own blog.
1. Have fun! This is your blog and you are writing about what you love - so always have fun with it. It is too easy to feel stressed about keeping to a schedule, or overburdening yourself with commitments - so keep your primary goals in mind and always have fun with it. This is not a job, no one is making you write a blog.
2. Keep your goals in mind. There could be any number of reasons why you decided to start writing a blog. Personally, I needed a way to keep track of the books I've read, what I thought about them, and hopefully find other people with whom I could discuss them. I've added more to my list of goals as my blog grows and I further develop my "voice", but I can always feel like I'm successful when looking at my goals.
3. Do not over-commit. I've had trouble with this, particularly last year. Once you've attracted some publishers, or have developed a relationship with a publicist - it is really fun and exciting to have new releases and ARCs available to you. I began having a lot of trouble saying no to many of the pitches, and then I had trouble reading all those books in the time frames that I had promised. Reading became stressful, and reading should never be stressful (unless maybe if you are reading for a class!). My calendar was filled with due dates for books, and left me very little time for books on my shelf that I also really wanted to read. This year I have been very picky about what I'm accepting for reviews, and have been able to read more of my own choosing.... and I am all the more happier for it.
4. Be social. This is a hard one for me, and I'm still working at it. Join Twitter, and get chatty. Promote yourself, especially if you've just written a post you're really proud of. Go to author events and meet other bloggers and the authors themselves. This will add to your experience ten-fold. I haven't personally attended any of the big conferences (BEA or ALA) but do it if you can swing it. Also, read other book blogs and try to make a point of commenting as often as you can. After all, don't comments on your blog make you smile?
5. Make your own rules. And then break them if you want to. No one says you need to post everyday, so don't feel like you have to. Having a post-free day is much better than a week full of meme-posts or a post just full of links you've collected. Don't get me wrong - meme posts are fun and a great way to introduce yourself to other bloggers (look - I'm doing one RIGHT NOW) but you'll find that the overwhelming majority of my posts are original content/reviews.
6. Edit, spell check, proofread, etc. This should go without saying, but unfortunately it needs to be said. I admit that I make mistakes too, we are all human after all, but I will not read a blog that makes grammatical errors all over the place. I just can't take you seriously if it appears you don't care enough about your own opinion to write it correctly.
7. Don't write for stats. Yes, stats are becoming more important and publishers have begun taking them into consideration as they have more and more bloggers to work with. But stats should not be your focus. Giveaways are fun and bring more traffic to your site - but how many of them stick around to keep reading your words? Do you want a huge number of "followers" who don't really follow you? So I suggest having giveaways if you like - they are fun after all - but don't break your bank holding them, and don't force people to "follow" you to enter. You should always be writing for you.
8. Make sure your blog is easy to read. This is also one that should go without saying, but truth is... wow. It is amazing to me how some people choose to display themselves through their blog. Dark red text on a black background is not easy to read. Sure, it may look cool, but it is not easy to read and therefore I will not read it. If you aren't sure, check your site out on other devices - especially mobile devices (phones, iPads) and see what it looks like there. You might be surprised. And please, shut the music off. You are the only one who likes it, trust me. Also, lots of flashy "things" on your sidebar might look cool to you - but will probably make your page load slower, frustrating potential readers.
9. Use those extra pages to your advantage! No matter which blogging platform you use, you should have the ability to create other pages besides your "home" page (where your posts show first). Create an interesting "About You" page... I will admit that is one of the first things I want to read in a newly discovered blog (after the post that brought me there of course). You should also have a clear review policy which will help your relationship with publishers and authors - and be truthful. Are you accepting books for review? What kinds? Are there any genres that you will not read? What about self-published books? Check out my policy on my About Me page if you aren't sure what I'm talking about. I also use pages for master lists of the books I've reviewed (one page by genre, another page my author) and you wouldn't believe the thankful comments I've received for these pages. This is something that is easier to start when you start your blog, and not a couple of years into it. Trust me.
10. Always be considerate. Do you like a feature that a blogger has created on their site? Tell them, and always ask first if you'd like to recreate it or do something similar on your site - and give them credit. Never ever ever plagiarize your posts. Write negative reviews if that is how you feel about the book, but don't be hurtful or over the top with negativity. Writing a good negative review can be harder than a glowing review for this very reason. You should always be respectful of the author and your audience. This also goes for commenting or chatting with other bloggers.... it is perfectly acceptable to disagree and speak your piece, but you are far more likely to be heard if you do so respectfully. I've seen many a debate on Twitter where two passionate bloggers resolve to agree to disagree, and that is that. Some people love the drama, but I prefer an intelligent debate.
Above all - HAVE FUN!
Do you have anything to add to my list? Anything I might have missed? Any advice you might have for me? Suggestions always welcome!

I've read about 10 of these today and #7 is probably my favorite. Sometimes I forget other people read posts and I ramble on and then I'm like 'whoops' should probably go back and edit some :-D
And I agree with #3 it is by far the most important. We're all different and have to judge things based on how we feel about them not on what everyone else is doing!

Great tips! It's amazing that spelling/grammar and consideration need to be said, but they are probably two of the MOST valuable tips for new bloggers... I also love the "use the pages to your advantage" tip. It's one that I didn't even think of, but it is so true!
Check out my Top Ten!

Ah, over-committing. That's one I've had problems with in the past and probably still do. When people are offering you new oops all the time it's so easy to get caught up in their pitch and agree to take a look, only to find you just don't have the time to fit in all your commitments. It's like being a kid in a candy shop, or a bookworm in a bookshop if you prefer, for a while. You have to reign that in a bit to be fair to everyone. Good call :)

Don't write for stats is so true and so hard to follow. You're right that what you post should be for you and while it's easy to get caught up in stat watching it's not the most important thing.

Great list! I've loved seeing everyone's tips today and I've realized I really need to create a page indexing my reviews. I can't believe I haven't done that yet.

Over commit? What is this you speak of? LOL
All I can say to that, is I'm 2 years in and still have problems there. Getting better though!

I can't be live I forgot # 6! Grammar and spelling are so important.

- Hannah said...
Great list! I need to get better about proofreading my posts. Sometimes I get really excited and want to post something immediately after I've written it... and then I'll regret it and hang my head in shame when I go back later and realize I had several grammar errors. Ugh! I'm working on paying more attention and slowing down a little while I'm writing to try and combat those errors :)
And I love your comments about writing respectful negative reviews! It's definitely hard to find that perfect balance where you clearly identify why a book didn't work for you while still recognizing that someone else might love it and it was the result of someone else's hard work.

Hi Sarah: Good list. I've been mulling over alphabetizing my book list by author - I started it early and just added to it with time, but now I realize that is frustrating for readers. Your post confirmed that I need to do that.
Thanks, Kathy

Great advice for new bloggers, and smart reminders for 'veterans'!
"Don't over-commit" is one I took to heart in the past year, and am pleased with the way it's worked out.

The newly-formed collaborative that plans to put the largest wind farm in America in the Atlantic Ocean just 13 miles from the Rockaway shoreline has moved ahead in those plans by issuing a Request for Information from firms that develop such wind farms. The intent of the RFI is to gauge the level of interest on the part of the wind power industry and other interested parties in developing the project. By the end of this year, a Request for Proposals (RFP) will be issued to seek proposals from private firms on actually developing the wind farm. Some locals wonder, however, if the plan will ever come to fruition. It seems as though some of the major players in the wind farm business, including billionaire T. Boone Pickens, are moving away from the new form of renewable energy because of the tanking economy.
Jon Gaska, Community Board 14 District Manager, is optimistic that the beaches will be fully manned this summer. He says that jobs and internships for college students are hard to find in this economy and many who would normally disdain a job on the beach took a second look - and a summer job - this year.
The city's Department of Transportation put out a press release last week patting itself on the back for creating 200 new miles of bike paths in the city over the past three years. "We can now state firmly that New York City is the bicycling capital of the United States," said the DOT's Commissioner. "This 200-mile growth has transformed our bike network into a robust transportation system, a true backbone that connects the city's neighborhoods and helps get cyclists to their destinations safely. By clearly marking out our road space, these new lanes also pull double duty as anchors to our traffic calming projects citywide, creating even safer streets for pedestrians and motorists." That statement proves you can put spin on just about anything, because it is at odds with what most New Yorkers believe about the new bike lanes that have made their onceplacid streets into battlegrounds between bikers and motorists.
State Senator Shirley Huntley will host the third annual "Children First Family Festival" in Broad Channel on July 18. The festival will be held at the park at 17 Road and Cross Bay Boulevard from 11 a.m. until sundown. In addition, the Broad Channel volies will host Movie Night Under The Stars on that same evening, July 18 at the BCAC field on 1 Road and Cross Bay Boulevard. The movie, "ET: The Extra- Terrestrial," will begin at 8 p.m.
During the 1975-1976 school year, the Board of Education (everything old is new again) piloted a program at Beach Channel High School. The program was called Reading Improvement Through The Arts (RITA) and it lasted only a short time, as with most Board of Education programs in those years. Now, an author is writing a book about the program and is looking for participants to talk about their experiences in the program. Those who did participate and want to help with the book should send their name and contact information to sylcorwin@ aol.com.
Next semester's public school calendar has been finalized. Assistant principals and school-based intermediate supervisors who are not annualized are due back to school on Monday, August 31. All other staff members are due back on Tuesday, September 8, the day after Labor Day. That day will give teachers some time to set up their room and also for some staff development. Students return on Wednesday, September 9.
There are many people in Rockaway who are titillated when a famous movie or television star comes to Rockaway for a shoot. They want to get close to the star, to reach out and get an autograph or a photo. There are others, however, that say the titillation is not worth the bother. For much of last week, Rockaway streets and bridges were blocked off for large chunks of time for the filming of a new movie, "The Bounty," starring Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler. Some gushed because they actually got to see Aniston, but more groused because they spent an hour or more in traffic at the Marine Parkway Bridge, at Beach 35 Street and Rockaway Beach Boulevard or in Far Rockaway, all because of the shoot. One local businessman said that the security people from the shoot sent traffic the wrong way on a one-way street, nearly causing several accidents. "What good does this do Rockaway," asked one angered motorist? "What do we get for not being able to use our own streets for a week?"
If you're interested in seeing better ferry service for Rockaway, get yourself to a meeting at Queens Borough Hall scheduled for Tuesday, July 21 at 11 a.m. The meeting is part of a six-month comprehensive citywide ferry study. It looks as if the plan is to leave Rockaway ferry service as is and to add stops at Floyd Bennett Field, JFK Airport and Astoria. Some locals say that our present service is not adequate because we need at least one more boat and that high-speed ferries are needed rather than a renovated fishing boat.
Two weeks ago we pointed out that this was probably the final year for the Far Rockaway carnival because of all the problems it generates. We said that Councilman James Sanders Jr. wanted the carnival for the community, but the Councilman called to say that he had nothing to do with it and, in fact, he does not want to see it come back.

Take a run on down to Cortez
The Pueblo to Pueblo run in Cortez will offer some local athletes a chance to get a jump on the running season this April.
The 11-mile run, scheduled to take place April 28, will begin at the Anasazi Heritage Center at 9 a.m. (runners will be bused to the starting line at 8 a.m.) and will follow a downhill track though the Montezuma Valley before ending at the Cortez Cultural Center. A shorter two-mile fun run is also part of the event.
Runners can register before April 25 for $12. After that date, the cost increases to $15. Fee includes a race T-shirt. For more information on the race, call the Cortez Cultural Center at (970) 565-1151.
Take me out to the ball game
Registration for the Yampa Valley Adult Baseball League is under way.
This year the league is hoping to form three to five teams of 15 players each to compete against other teams from the region once a week in Steamboat. Players must be 16 years of age or older.
Early season practice will begin in mid-April and run until mid-May. Games will be played on Friday evenings in Steamboat. For more information, contact Tommy Larson at 879-2706 or e-mail him at email@example.com.

U.S. Deficit
The debt crisis has taken the world by storm; but few seem to be sounding the alarm. The U.S dollar, the go-to currency for global economic stability and growth, is imploding at an unprecedented rate.
Profit Confidential editors have been critics of the U.S.'s inability to rein-in government spending. Based on the White House's own figures, the national debt will reach $20.0 trillion by the end of this decade—about 140% of our current gross domestic product (GDP).
Historically, countries that have incurred considerable debt and consistent national debt-to-GDP multiples of 120% or more have experienced currency devaluation. The U.S. dollar has been in a free-fall against other major world currencies since 2009.
Since November 2008, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke has initiated three rounds of quantitative easing (QE) in an effort to create more economic activity and increase home prices.
Since 2008, the Federal Reserve has printed roughly $3.0 trillion. And, it's climbing each month by an additional $85.0 billion.
What have three rounds of QE accomplished? It was supposed to increase lending, create more jobs, and lower the unemployment rate. Instead, banks are sitting on a pile of cash and remain tight-fisted, fewer jobs have been created, and the unemployment rate remains high
What QE has done is flood the global markets with trillions of U.S dollars. It's not as if this new-found money is backed by gold. It's simply created out of thin air.
And, things are not going to get any better. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) expects the U.S. economy to remain moribund in 2013 and for unemployment to remain high. What's more, the official U6 unemployment rate (which includes people who have given up looking for work and people who have part-time jobs but want full-time jobs) has held steady around 15% for months.
The unofficial shadow statistic unemployment rate (which includes the long-term unemployed) sits at 22%!
Americans are out of work, and their dollar doesn't go as far as it used to. Consumer spending might have once been the workhorse for economic growth, but not anymore. And, that could spell doom for the U.S. economy.
After phenomenal amounts of bailouts were doled out, followed by non-stop government spending, the U.S. national debt rose 76.2%—from $9.2 trillion in 2008 to $16.3 trillion in 2012. (Source: TreasuryDirect, last accessed November 27, 2012.)
It gets worse. The current administration said it would keep the budget deficit below $1.0 trillion. It hasn't. For fiscal 2012, the federal budget deficit was $1.1 trillion, slightly below the $1.3 trillion deficit recorded in 2011. (Source: U.S. Department of the Treasury, October 12, 2012.) What's more, 2012 marked the fourth consecutive year in which the U.S. government experienced an annual deficit above $1.0 trillion. As a percentage of GDP, the U.S. government's budget deficit for the year 2012 stands at seven percent.
Along with skyrocketing government debt, the Federal Reserve has printed $3.0 trillion. Where did the $3.0 trillion come from? It's not backed by gold. It was simply created out of thin air. And, the presses continue to print an additional $85.0 billion a month!
At Profit Confidential, we believe a home-grown debt crisis is brewing for America, and we believe other aspects of our financial system will suffer because of it

Wolfenstein and I go back a long way. The original was possibly the first PC game I ever played, sitting at the keyboard of my housemate's 386 not long after the game first launched. Over a two year period I played through the original on every difficultly level, followed by iD's sequel, Spear of Destiny. Just less than ten years later I was captivated by Raven's first re-imagining, Return to Castle Wolfenstein - a game which suffered from comparisons with its contemporary, Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, but which I found hugely entertaining. I say this because I don't want you to think that I came into the new Wolfenstein wanting to put it down or to complain about iD and Activision milking the franchise. I came into it rooting for the game, wanting it to be good. I don't care if Wolfenstein is backwards looking, dated or lacking in innovation. As long as it looks, plays and feels like a modern day Wolfenstein should, then I'll be happy.
Instead, I'm a little bit confused.
Things could be worse. One hour in, I was merely disappointed. Bar one brilliant section, the first level was a hackneyed approximation of a Call of Duty, making even Treyarch's worst efforts on CoD3 seem inspired by comparison. After that, the game seemed to have taken a weird left-turn into STALKER-ville, opting for the kind of free-roaming, talk to contact X, follow contact Y shenanigans you expect from the love-it/hate-it FPS or Fallout 3. Wolfenstein's hero, BJ Blazkowicz, has come to the charming German town of Eistenstadt to foil yet another Nazi plan with occult props. To do so, he needs to work with two groups: a resistance setup called the Kreisau Circle and a mysterious occult society, The Golden Dawn. Only by travelling around the city, completing missions for one and then the other can you advance the plot and wreck the German plans. Previously just your basic one-man army, the still strong and silent BJ now has to get in with the locals and serve their needs.
It's not necessarily my concept of Wolfenstein, but that doesn't mean it's a bad one. Linear levels, one after the other, are a little passé in this day and age, and the setting - a city slowly being torn apart by war and dark magic - has plenty of potential for atmosphere. Unfortunately, the area you actually get to travel around is surprisingly small and meagrely populated, and the levels are large enough to act as a boring buffer between bouts of action, without being interesting or well-developed enough to turn them into anything beyond that.
What's more, the more the game goes on, the more the streets become populated with Nazi troops, technologically enhanced super-troops and all sorts of eldritch horror, meaning that the stretches between missions turn into more extensive running battles. Again, this isn't necessarily a bad thing, and there is a point at about the halfway mark where you're enjoying some entertaining, challenging firefights in the public squares and major thoroughfares of mid-town Eisenstadt. After a while, however, the fighting just gets in the way of progress, and there's a sense that the game is - essentially - being padded out. It hardly helps that you find yourself fighting again and again and again in the same locations, and while you can evade combat by moving across the rooftops or through the sewers, confusing layouts and artificial barriers make doing so even more irritating.

Edouard fights again in Panama!
Daniel "The Haitian Sensation" Edouard (21-2-2 with 12 KOs ranked WBA #9, WBC #15) is set to defend his WBA Fedelatin Middleweight boxing title in Colon City, Panama, Saturday, April 18 at the illustrious Hotel Melia Panama Canal. Edouard recently won the WBA Fedelatin title in Panama and is excited about returning to the country he speaks of affectionately. "I received a passionate reception in Panama and really couldn't wait to return. The fans are knowledgeable and appreciative of the sport. It made for an electric atmosphere and an amazing night of fights!"
Always thinking charitably Edouard continues, "I was really busy during my last visit to Panama. I hope that I am able to visit a few children's organizations while there. I am taking a few surprises with me that I think they will really enjoy." Though not fully determined, several credible opponents are being.
"The same blood that fueled Mr. Roberto Duran flows through Panama so it is vital that I present myself well. I will be exceptional come fight night!" Edouard also expresses enthusiasm about future performances on the world stage. "Several opportunities have come my way lately but there is one fight that looks particularly appetizing to me, a possible matchup with WBA Champ Felix Sturm (31-2-1 with 13 KOs) by the end of 2009 would be amazing." Edouard is promoted by Square Ring, Inc. and recently struck a non-boxing promotional agreement with VMG Worldwide, Inc
The Panama fight card is promoted by Premium Boxing Promotions (Villarreal & Partners). Also featured on the night is Nicholas Walters of Jamaica (10-0-0 with 8 KOs) and Haitian fighter Evans Pierre (8-0-0 with 7 KOs) who has close ties to Edouard who also sits as the Vice President of the Haitian Boxing Federation.

Okay, so I'm talking to BD right now, he's asking if I picked out any name, and he said he hasn't really thought of anything. I came across one name, and he's like "Yeah. That sounds good. _____ ______", as he put the baby's first name, and his last name together. I was like, "Wait...what did you say?" and then I mentioned something about the name sounding cornball because it sort of rhymes with BD's first name, and then he's like, "Wait, back up, what do you mean, '?', is that?"
We're still arguing about baby's last name, and about the hyphenated thing, and he said, "Well fine then, if that's the case, then nevermind, just use your name". The reason being he's so high strung about his last name is Cae has mine and that was his 1rst son, and he didn't even get his last name, and he said something about his family name dying out if this baby is a boy, and doesn't get his last name, something about him going to a family reunion this August...idk.
The thing is, I'm so sick of him and his little tantrums he's pulling. I already laid the whole, "What the fuck are you doing for us?" thing on him, and he's still not getting it. I'm seriously thinking of just hyphenating the name, but I feel like shit for not going with his one simple request. I hate this, how can I deal with it, and how can at least put it in words that the least I am doing by hyphenating the name is putting his name first...I still want the baby to have my name, you know?
I hope I'm having a girl, in spite of his fucking witless outburst. :x

I graduated from the School of Architecture, of the National Technical University of Athens in 1995 and I am a Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan instructor, certified by the International Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan Federation and the Wu Family, since February 2012.
I consider my apprenticeship in Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan, which began in 2007 at the age of 37 years in the Hellenic Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan Academy, a conscious choice for my postgraduate studies, which until then I postponed. I chose to study in this ingenious art with the seriousness and consistency required in the postgraduate studies, because not only it teaches but also it demonstrates that the efficient use of power is the product of precisely applying principles based on physics and, therefore, something accessible to everybody. At the same time, during my apprenticeship, I observed that I become more and more creative, efficient and resistant to the demands of everyday life.
I decided to become an instructor because I consider my duty to offer this valuable knowledge to other people.
Many thanks to my teacher, Chief Instructor of the Hellenic Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan Academy, Dionysis Tsetselis and to the instructors Vasileios Tsiantis, Gregory Antikian and Paris Verras, for the generosity with which they offer me their Knowledge and their support.
I feel great admiration and gratitude for the source of this ingenious and outstanding martial art, for the Wu Family. Especially I would like to express my gratitude to Grand Master Wu Kwong Yu, for the confidence he shown in me by including me in the group of instructors of our system.
I would like also to thank a lot, the President of the International Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan Federation, Jonathan Krehm for his valuable help.
The profound knowledge offered by Wu Tai Chi Chuan and the quality of life one achieves by practicing this outstanding martial art, motivates me to continue my effort.

I had initially uploaded full size images to dA but since I never sold any prints I stopped doing that some time ago. It was slower and a little more hassle so I just thought there was no point in doing it.
dA have just announced a change in some payment policy and informed me I have been making print sales. Well, thank you for telling me.
Maybe I switched off email notifications at some point...I'm not sure. dA seems, to me at least, to have a complex interface and finding settings for such things is trickier than a tricky thing on planet Complex when celebrating Obfuscation Day.
It's a little annoying as I WOULD have bothered to add more images for sale as prints had I know it was actually working so now I'm going to go back and re-upload a whole ton of images and make them available for prints.
Does anyone know of a way to get informed when you make a print sale? Preferably an email notification?
