Ease of Use User Experience (UX) topic overview/definition
Ease of Use: Concept Definition
Ease of use is a straightforward concept –it's a measurement of how easy the finished product is to use by its intended users. Design is often a battle between trying to deliver functionality and trying to deliver ease of use. It͛s important to consider ease of use during the design phase and where possible accommodate the need for ease of use.
For your convenience, we've collected all UX literature that deals with Ease of Use. Here's the full list:
How to Design for Ease of Use
Ease of use is something that designers strive for but how can you design for ease-of-use? It's a common question at the start of projects; "If we're going to do this well, it will need to satisfy ease-of-use for our customers. What kind of universal metrics can we apply to ensure that the product does just that?"Someone at IBM said; "Ease of us...
An Introduction to Usability
Usability and user experience (UX) are not the same thing: the usability of a product is a crucial part that shapes its UX, and hence falls under the umbrella of UX. While many might think that usability is solely about the "ease of use" of a product, it's actually more than that. The ISO 9421-11 standard on usability describes it as: "The exte...

Re: :) CREDIT CARD NOT VALID - FIX
And with the cardholder name is it alright to just put 1 name or it has to be both of them?
Re: :) CREDIT CARD NOT VALID - FIX
Not sure if it can help, but if you do live on Sainte-Catherine, isn't it "Sainte" instead of "Saint"? I'm not sure about this though. Also you can always try stuff like "Ste-Catherine", this opens up to a lot more possibilities! If you haven't tried 'em yet.
I personally still haven't got mine to work after over 1 year of owning the PS3. It still doesn't work, and there is still no specific solution to the problem other than trying another Credit Card, which I really don't feel like getting a second Card just for the PS Store. I still think it's a problem with the store itself, so until it is fixed I'll stick to buying PSN Cards now that they are available in Canada.
Re: :) CREDIT CARD NOT VALID - FIX
Lol yeah i know it should be sainte xP,but it was just an exemple.didnt try with St or ST yet.
And About the Psn Card i Heard they were available in Best Buy in Canada,is it true?

I called VISA, and they told me my card was fine, and in fact they had authorized a dollar each time I tried to signup for the network billing as stated in their records of my account. I assume this is a PS3 (sony) problem, I call customer service and they tell me all the things I have already read in these forums, and that they cant do anything for me. I have tried everything, adjusting my name, using capitals with and without spaces ... everything. I only have one credit card, but I may have to go get a mastercard and try it another way. I NEED to download more Rockband songs dangit!Has anyone else had this problem and solved it ....... any input would be great!

thad code on the back is usually the problem, I'd call you bank an ask why you can'y use it to buy stuff
Re: :) CREDIT CARD NOT VALID - FIX
PS Store's service just has something wrong with it.. The model of the PS3 doesn't have anything to do with this and seeing as a lot of people have issues with this it's highly possible that it is the PS Store's service. If my credit card works for every single store I used online and both other current gen systems out there, I don't see why it wouldn't on PS Store, but it still doesn't.
I still try every couple of months hoping that they have fixed it, but it never works. At least we have PSN Cards though, and the Visa Gift Cards still works. So those two are an option.
Re: :) CREDIT CARD NOT VALID - FIX
For God's sake I cannot believe this crap! I have not played my PSP in a LOOONG time, I remembered when I was getting the "Communication with the server failed error (0x80048a25)" a year ago when I was trying to download a game that I had already PAID for; so today I took out my psp, recharge the battery, installed another useless update, with another 200mb of crap with the Media Go and the QuickTime useless player, I was ready to download a game and this credit card crap issue comes up... forget it, this is worthless, is always the same story and I'm not going to waste my time with this... I hope I wasn't charged any money because then I'm gonna get really pissed off!
They DID charge me 4 times!!!! You morons!!! http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/1033/playstationstoreyoumoro.png -- I knew it!

Almost LateMature
It's 5:45 when my alarm goes off the next morning. Due to being in the school band, I have to get up earlier so I can make it to practice, which is at 7:30. Giggles and shrieks coming from Peter and Aaron's room informs me that they're already awake.
"Shut the hell up!" I yell across the hall to them. I don't feel like listening to that the entire day, and I know that unless someone says something, they'll keep going.
"Sorry Ry!" Aaron squeaks, popping his head through the crack between my door and the wall. Peter pops his head through the crack too, but he doesn't look very apologetic; in fact, he looks amused.
"We'll be quieter," Peter mutters, rolling his blue eyes at me. I shrug and they dart off, back to their own bedroom.
I pull out a pair of black skinny jeans, a plain light blue t-shirt, and a navy hoodie with the word "Hollister" across the chest from my closet. With ease, I change out of my pajamas, toss them onto the floor, and put on my clothes.
After shoveling down a bowl of cereal, I pull on a pair of black and blue converse hightops and grab my backpack.
"Aaron! Peter! Are you coming or not?" I yell, glancing at my watch. The face of the watch reads off 7:05. 'I'm gonna be late for band if they don't hurry up,' I think, frustrated, to myself.
It's 7:10 by the time they're finally ready to go. In a rush now, I hurry out the door and head towards the school, glancing over my shoulder occasionally to make sure they're still following me.

Bring It On
I pounded my head against the wall and seethed to myself. I was so busy worrying about 68 that I had forgotten every single rule of safety for an agent. Luckily I wasn't completely unprepared.
I flipped out my phone and was halfway finished dialing the Commander's number when I realized I had no signal. That made my situation more difficult, but not completely hopeless.
I pulled off my jacket and used my fingernail clipper to rip open the seam of the pocket. I pulled out a small lock-picking kit, pulled out the screwdriver, and set to work at the back of the bookcase, stabbing it over and over again in the same spot until it started to make a dent. If I kept this up for the next couple of hours, I would break the bookcase.

Fact Sheet: The Vegie Patch
Presenter: Tino Carnevale, 21/04/2012
SERIES 23 Episode 04
Growing plants outside their normal climatic comfort zones can be a real challenge, but it can also be a lot of fun.
Tino loves a gardening challenge and growing a banana plant in Hobart was certainly that, but by creating a microclimate for it to grow in, he was able to make it feel right at home.
Firstly, he planted it in a spot next to a north-facing wall that heats up during the day and slowly releases warmth at night and also made it a hessian frost barrier in winter. And it hasn't just survived - it's flowered! When Costa visited Tino recently, he was pretty impressed!
COSTA GEORGIADIS: Ah-ha! This is your infamous banana.
TINO CARNEVALE: Yeah.
COSTA GEORGIADIS: I've heard about it.
TINO CARNEVALE: And if you look up in the fork....
COSTA GEORGIADIS: You've got a flower!
TINO CARNEVALE: Yeah!
COSTA GEORGIADIS: Bananas are on their way!
After the success of the banana plant, Tino's more enthusiastic than ever to get some other experiments underway - all of them involving the use of microclimates to grow plants out of their 'climate comfort zone!'
1. The Avacados
Avocados are native to tropical central America and most people are familiar with the warmer climate avocados, but there are some that originate from higher altitudes and have some cold resistance. Tino is going to use the Fuerte variety for his next experiment. Although this avoacado can tolerate cooler growing conditions, Tino gives it some extra protection while it's young, by using some hessian and stakes to protect the young plant and help it through the winter.
Avocados hate wet feet, so they do really well in pots for the first couple of years, but they need a well drained potting mix. Tino achieves this by adding some sand to the potting mix and blending it through.
Next is another variety of Avocado - the 'Bacon.' Tino's tree has been in the pot for a while which has resulted in the roots becoming pot-bound, so he lightly 'tickles' the roots out so that they will be in better contact with the soil and nutrients in their new home. The 'Bacon' can cope with temperatures below minus 8 degrees celcius, but Tino wants to re-plant this one in a pot so that he can move it around. In a warmer climate you need 2 trees for fruit, but in cooler climates, you can get fruit off an individual tree. However, come spring, Tino is going to put this pot up near the Fuerte for cross pollination. The 'Bacon' is going to placed in a protected area over the winter.
2. The Citrus
Typically citrus are a warmer climate fruit, but the varieties at The Patch are quite successful, positioned near the north-facing wall. The Meyer Lemon, the Washington Navel, the Kaffir Lime and others are all quite happy. As long as they're kept above freezing, citrus will generally flower and fruit, but the fruit might not be as large, numerous or tasty when grown in cooler climates.
If you live inland and are a bit worried that your conditions may be a bit frosty for citrus, you can try growing your tree in a pot. Tino's next experiement is with a Blood Orange - a Mediterranean citrus that's a bit out of place in Hobart. You'll need to get yourself some good quality, rich potting mix that drains well and a large pot. Citrus are grafted, so make sure that the graft point is at least 10 centimetres above the line of the pot. Add a layer of animal manure to the top of the pot as a mulch layer - this will feed the plant and the potting mix. Tino uses cow or sheep manure in the autumn, and chicken manure in the spring.
During winter, the plants can be positioned in the warmest part of the garden - undercover or even indoors if necessary.
Tino's Citrus Tips
- In the first year of being in the pot, pick off the flowers so the plant can concentrate its energies on growing, rather than producing fruit.
- Don't feed with too-high a nitrogen fertiliser close to winter because that will promote new growth which will burn off in the frost.
It may be a bit trickier growing some of these warmer-climate plants in Hobart, but if you like a gardening challenge like Tino, you might like to try some experiments of your own in your garden.

Carly catches Sonny kissing Brenda on the docks and throws herself into opening a new nightclub. Her friendship with newcomer Ric Lansing takes a twisted turn when they wake up together in a motel. Carly finds herself pregnant again and fears the worst. In a successful effort to save his own life, Ric confesses that he never touched Carly and that he and Sonny are half-brothers. Ric's plans to make Sonny pay for the life he was denied escalate when he locks Carly in a panic room so he can steal her baby. Sonny and Jason search for Carly as Luis Alcazar's brother Lorenzo takes control of Ric's plan and turns it into a plot to take over Sonny's territory. On his yacht, Alcazar begins to soften toward the pregnant Mrs. Corinthos. After she comes home, Carly's empathy for Alcazar drives a rift between her and Sonny. Paranoid due to Alcazar's gaslighting of him, Sonny accidentally shoots Carly in the head while Lorenzo helps her through labor. Carly slips into a coma and can't quite connect with her family after she awakens.
Sonny sees Carly and Lorenzo kiss and turns to salvage diver Sam McCall for some no-strings sex. Carly catches them in bed and begins a romance with Alcazar. A custody battle ensues with Sonny for their boys. While stuck in an elevator in the burning Port Charles Hotel, Alexis Davis reveals to Carly that Sonny is her daughter's real father. Carly keeps the secret as she and Sonny make their way back to one another for the sake of the children. Sonny stashes a pregnant Sam across the hall with Jason. In order to save his best friend's marriage, Jason claims to be the father of Sam's child. The truth comes out and Carly forgives Sonny. Carly's search for her father, federal prosecutor John Durant, proves to be no threat, but when Kristina Davis is diagnosed with leukemia, Carly's lie of omission becomes a matter of life and death. She tells Sonny the truth so that his bone marrow can be tested. Weary after years of lies and drama, the two separate.
Carly strikes up a friendship with doctor Steven Webber. Sonny and Alexis put aside their differences as they fight for Kristina's life, but Ric, now married to Alexis and back in the picture, spurs on their rivalry. Tragedy meets miracle when Sam's baby is stillborn and the baby's stem cells save Kristina's life. Carly offers support to Sonny, even testifying at Kristina's custody trial, but the civility doesn't translate into a reunion.
Sonny and Carly remove their wedding rings and declare their marriage over once and for all. Carly now finds herself pursued by Steven and turning back toward her old flame, Lorenzo Alcazar, while Sonny considers learning a little legalese.

06 May 2014
Some 17 boys from Chai Chee, Henderson and NorthLIghtSchool were onsite at Bishan from 9 am. The previous week, 10 boys from Taman Jurong and Jurong Springs had been helping children try the cycling at the Jurong West Open House. They weren't there to play football. They were there to help people live better through sport.
In the past year that SportCares has been running SNL with its partners in the community, we have seen gangly youngsters grow taller and more self assured. We have heard squeaky voices grow deeper. Most important, we have seen doubt change into courage—and anger into hope. We have seen suspicion transform into a willingness to lend a helping hand.
None of the boys had time to get their photos taken with the VIPs or our sporting lion Nila. The boys were too busy working, and we were too overwhelmed with pride to think clearly.
But know this. While we failed to capture many of the moments in digital, the pride we felt is going to be with us forever in our hearts.
Unabashed sentiment is often out of fashion these days. However our emotions were spilling over as we watched the boys put their winning spirit into action. They helped you at the archery station, by ensuring that your protective arm bands were on properly and showing you how to handle the bow.
They were with you at badminton, registering you, keeping the floor dry so you wouldn't slip and making sure that you had a turn in a timely manner. They brought water when you were feeling tired. They played floorball with you and encouraged you to tackle the game with gusto—which is how they play. They helped you navigate the labyrinth of the gymnastics stations.
They did all these things, but you didn't recognise them from Saturday Night Lights or SportCares. Instead of wearing our traditional white jerseys with the big red heart, they were decked out in the bright green tees proclaiming that they were a Sports Ambassador.
So, even if you didn't recognise any of them, you felt the power of their big goofy giddy hearts and their absolute love of sport.
Celebrate the Extraordinary. Celebrate the football boys from Saturday Night Lights.

Asked again if Mather is injured, La Russa says no. "I trust him and he's not getting treatment for something. He's a smart guy. It wouldn't be smart to hide that."
The manager isn't worried about Mather's defense at this point. "He got almost an exclusive look there earlier so he has gotten plenty of time there… I feel comfortable playing him at third now. What he needs to do is get his stroke going… He needs to hit. I don't think being concerned about his defense is why he isn't hitting. I just think he got in a funk," the manager said.
Update: While Mather saw time at first base and the outfield on Monday, it seems clear Freese is going to see the time at third base the rest of the way.
Chris Perez and Kyle McClellan threw at 10:30 a.m. under the watchful eye of Dave Duncan. Both are said to have been successful, but the question is whether or not there is time to Perez to seize the closer's role. His best hope may be to emerge from a committee. They were scheduled to be followed by the new arrival Dennys Reyes, but he was apparently late to arrive for his first day. His first game appearance is to be determined based on his readiness. La Russa spoke about the potential for having two effective veterans from the left side in Reyes and Trever Miller. "Haven't been common. Even in Oakland it wasn't common."
Troy Glaus was feeling good, but had "plateaued" recently. No setback, but he hasn't progressed either. "The chances of him playing in March may have been too far ahead. If he's there May 1, that would be great," La Russa said Glaus is not yet swinging a bat.
This news seems a surprise to some, but we've been suggesting it all along - don't count on Glaus until maybe June.
La Russa did not acknowledge feeling better about Ryan Ludwick the last few days. "I never felt down about him. What I said that he was a mess for awhile," stated the manager. He went on to say that given the kind of worker Ludwick is that he has never had any doubts about the outfielder, who was slumping for the first half of the spring.
La Russa was asked about Skip Schumaker batting against left-handed pitchers. Tony noted he did it last season, is doing it this spring and will do it in 2009 and then expanded his comments to the entire group. "All our lefthanders against left-handed pitchers last season were not indicative of what they are capable of… They all hang in there and don't give away anything at all," Tony said.
The manager is not yet ready to anoint Skip as his second baseman, but remains optimistic. "As things stand now, he's improving as a second baseman but there is still two weeks. Everything I've said all along still stands. Him playing second base is good for our club," La Russa remarked.
Paraphrasing La Russa on Brian Barden: He is sure handed and puts the bat on the ball. He will see several starts this week including Saturday. Has a very sure glove and accurate arm. Tony sees him as equally competent at second, third and shortstop.
Chris Carpenter is cleared to throw 15 or so more pitches than last time out, perhaps getting into the 80's in his count on Monday. "He sure has the wind working for him," La Russa cracked. There is about a 15-20 mph wind blowing in from right field.
If other news items worth adding during the day pop up, I will append them here. Thanks for subscribing and reading!
Minor league releases
Monday morning was bad for five minor league players who were released in the initial group of cuts from minor league camp. They include second baseman Isa Garcia, left-handed pitcher Joe Rogers, right-handed pitcher Miguel Flores, catcher Christian Rosa and third baseman Nick Vera.
PTBNL for Greene named
Reliever Luke Gregerson has been selected by the San Diego Padres as the player to be named later in the Khalil Greene trade. He joins now-injured reliever Mark Worrell as the two players joining San Diego in return for the Cardinals new shortstop.
Walters Impressive, but sent down to start
After he pitched a spotless three innings on Monday, the last remaining non-roster invitee pitcher on the St. Louis Cardinals major league roster, right-hander P.J. Walters, was reassigned to the organization's minor league camp following the game.
The Cardinals Minor League Pitcher of the Year in 2007 allowed just one hit and fanned one while issuing no walks on Monday. His major league spring ERA was an equally impressive and symmetric 1.00.
Walters is expected to be among what will be a very talented 2009 Memphis rotation and should be competitive with Mitchell Boggs and Blake Hawksworth if long/starter reinforcements are needed in St. Louis later. The latter two are on the 40-man roster. Walters would need to be added.
The move leaves 32 players in major league camp, including four NRIs – catcher Matt Pagnozzi, second baseman Joe Thurston, third baseman David Freese and outfielder Colby Rasmus.

A young man grieving for his lost sister steps into the world of their favorite board game, in a desperate attempt to find her.
It's All in the Rigging: 9 of the Best Boats in Fantasy
Once upon a time (cough, August 6, 2013, actually), Tor.com published "I Hate Boats," by Carl Engle-Laird. Carl's gone on to brilliant things, but I still want to argue with him about the post, and especially this sentence in particular: "Whenever my beloved protagonists get on a boat, I groan, put the book on the table, and pace around the room muttering angrily to myself, alarming friends and loved ones."
Carl, now that you're a big-deal editor at Tor.com, I'm finally ready to tell you that I feel exactly the opposite way. I love boats, and when I see one in a book, I feel a lot of hope. I grew up sailing on the Chesapeake Bay, reading nautical histories, and what I want in my fiction is a boat that feels real and suits the plot. When a book takes me over water, I'm eagerly looking for the most seaworthy craft.
Such boats do exist! I am pretty sure we agree on this, because when you said, "The sad thing is that I think stories about boats and sailors can be incredibly compelling. A vessel on the open sea is a full, totally enclosed world unto itself…," I nodded enthusiastically. But you left your readers a warning, "Don't just treat your sea voyage as an opportunity to have things happen to your helpless protagonists, who don't know any more about how to sail than you do. If you do, the only result will be wasted pages," and I wanted you to know that they're out there, those exciting boats you seek!
Who Could Play This Merry Fellow? Dreamcasting Tom Bombadil
We were discussing Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings adaptations, and arguing the relative merits of the Extended Editions versus the Theatrical Releases. (Leah prefers Extended, Emily prefers Theatrical. We're both correct.) Emily pointed out that there should have been a DVD extra of Bombadil material, and then, naturally, that led to a dreamcasting of Bombadil. We gave ourselves a few restrictions—these had to be people who would have fit the role in 1999-ish, when they would have been hired for The Fellowship of the Ring, and all of the actors have been cast on the assumption that supermodel Claudia Schiffer is playing Goldberry…
So, hey! Come derry dol! Hop along, my hearties! Hobbits! Ponies all! Tor.com readers! We are fond of parties. Now let the fun begin! Let us sing together… or at least take a look at our picks, and tell us yours in the comments.
Corey J. White on Space Witches, Misfits, and Found Families
Killing Gravity by Corey J. White follows Mars Xi as she makes her way through life. And through space. Mars is a fiercely competent, brutally efficient woman who can kill you with her mind. But whether she knows it or not, Mars is about to get the last thing she expected: help. And she's going to need it, because the past is far from done with her or her newfound friends…
It's a great novella: character- and idea-heavy, but action-packed and light on its feet. I talked to Corey about Killing Gravity, how he writes, and the future.
Apollo 8 Sweepstakes!
We want to send you a copy of Jeffrey Kluger's Apollo 8: The Thrilling Story of the First Mission to the Moon, available now from Henry Holt!
In August 1968, NASA made a bold decision: in just sixteen weeks, the United States would launch humankind's first flight to the moon. Only the year before, three astronauts had burned to death in their spacecraft, and since then the Apollo program had suffered one setback after another. Meanwhile, the Russians were winning the space race, the Cold War was getting hotter by the month, and President Kennedy's promise to put a man on the moon by the end of the decade seemed sure to be broken. But when Frank Borman, Jim Lovell and Bill Anders were summoned to a secret meeting and told of the dangerous mission, they instantly signed on.
Written with all the color and verve of the best narrative non-fiction, Apollo 8 takes us from Mission Control to the astronaut's homes, from the test labs to the launch pad. The race to prepare an untested rocket for an unprecedented journey paves the way for the hair-raising trip to the moon. Then, on Christmas Eve, a nation that has suffered a horrendous year of assassinations and war is heartened by an inspiring message from the trio of astronauts in lunar orbit. And when the mission is over—after the first view of the far side of the moon, the first earth-rise, and the first re-entry through the earth's atmosphere following a flight to deep space—the impossible dream of walking on the moon suddenly seems within reach.
Here is the tale of a mission that was both a calculated risk and a wild crapshoot, a stirring account of how three American heroes forever changed our view of the home planet.

What Beavers Can Teach Us About Hope, Resilience, and the End of the World
The process of evolution can provide some jarring examples of what animals must do in order to survive. Predation, warfare, cannibalism, kidnapping, fratricide—all of these things can be considered normal in nature. Learning about them for the first time can be shocking, even depressing, especially when we consider the implications for our own species. And yet, the meat grinder of natural selection has also encouraged some altruistic traits, such as loyalty, empathy, sacrifice, and even love. One animal in particular that encompasses these gentler qualities is the astonishing, resilient, clever American beaver, an animal that has some surprising things to tell us about kinship and survival in the face of upheaval and extinction.
Bringing an Uzi to a Vampire Fight: Nightblood
Welcome to Freaky Fridays where paperbacks are still on the racks and they're full of sexy vampires and the even sexier men in leather trench coats who kill them.
If you thought 'Salem's Lot needed more automatic weapons, then T. Chris Martindale's Nightblood is for you. In the Seventies and Eighties the rugged, emotionally repressed tough guy who was equally comfortable with both guns and lovemaking was the leading man of choice. The hottest ticket in male hunkdom was the Vietnam vet because he'd seen such things that he was basically Rutger Hauer at the end of Blade Runner only he didn't dye his hair. But after Anne Rice's slim-hipped, glam vampires took over horror in the mid-Eighties they provided horror writers with a template from which all future leading men would be forged, giving rise to a legion of edgy male leads who were conflicted, tormented about their motivations and, when they confronted their nemesis, were subjected to a speech about how they're both the same underneath the skin.
Martindale saw that trend and said, "Oh, hell no." He took Anne Rice's sensitive vampires and machine gunned them into kibble. He set them on fire. He stuck bombs down their pants. His book's hero? A Vietnam vet dedicated to avenging evil, wearing a trench coat and toting an uzi. A man as reliable as a divorced dad, roaming the country, parking outside lovers lanes and spying on them from his creeper van to, erm, make sure no vampires were about. Or anything. Instead of doubting himself, he was sure of his abilities to kick ass. Instead of worrying about whether gazing into the abyss would turn him into an abyss too, he worried about making pipe bombs. Instead of carrying baggage, he carried an uzi. Ladies, put on your running shoes because this stud is single!
You Cannot Sink My Love for Battleship
There exists no convincing argument that movies should never be based on board games, because Clue exists, and therefore disproves any such argument. That said, the game of Battleship is a categorically stupid idea for a movie. Battleship is basically bingo with a bit of deductive strategy and no wacky prizes at the end. People in movies cannot sit around yelling YOU SUNK MY BATTLESHIP at each other, a fact which must have been clear to the people behind Battleship. Despite its dubious source material, Battleship is the one of the greatest dumb action movies of the early twenty-teens. Writers Jon and Erich Hoeber and director Peter Berg clearly took their Hasbro/Universal paychecks, gave the game a serious side-eye, and opted to keep just a few elements: big honkin' battleships, cylindrical missile things, and goofy coordinates.
Everything else is newly made-up big dumb action movie gold.
Jeff VanderMeer Talks Borne, Hyperobjects, and Florida Wildlife
Jeff VanderMeer is a master of combining ecological concerns with a dark, weird speculative fiction. His Southern Reach Trilogy followed an uncanny event that created "Area X", and the subsequent expeditions to explore the region, mining Nature itself to find the beauty and horror that comes with a radical shift in ecology. His latest novel, Borne, takes us to a future city, where people attempt to carve out lives after decades of societal collapse and environmental upheaval—you can read Niall Alexander's review here. Rachel, a young refugee, scavenges for food and tech in order to survive with her partner, a former biotech engineer named Wick. Rachel discovers a particularly mysterious biotech while scavenging, and rather than turning it over to Wick's experiments, she keeps it, names it Borne, and raises it like a child. Hilarity ensues, as does heartbreak, terror, and musing on the nature of survival and humanity's role on Earth… and that's all before you get to the skyscraper-sized flying bear.
VanderMeer is currently on a book tour for Borne, but he graciously took time to answer a few of my questions about the novel, and to discuss his love of the environment and the "New Weird." He also shared a video of the Florida coastline that inspired Area X.
Finding Those Books That Seem Made For Each Other
It came up in a meeting recently.
"I just finished reading A Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet and it felt like I was reading Firefly in book form."
"Oh that's weird. I had the exact same thought about Killing Gravity."
Sometimes completely separate books just go together. If you like one you're guaranteed to enjoy the other; maybe due to a similarity in tone, prose, plot, or a combination of elements. It's an aspect of literature that remains difficult to articulate even though it happens so often. Some books were made for each other.
Gillian Anderson is David Bowie Now, and Everything is Perfect
You know how American Gods is essentially a perfect show? And how it keeps, somehow, becoming even more perfect? Well, it's done that again. As any fans of the book or TV show know by now, Media, played by Gillian Anderson, is a New God who can take any form it chooses to. We've see it as Lucy Ricardo, and looking decidedly Judy Garland-esque in a promo shot. But Media has taken its best form yet in a new promotional video sent out by STARZ: DAVID BOWIE.

The Strange Case of the Alchemist's Daughter
Based on some of literature's horror and science fiction classics, Theodora Goss's The Strange Case of the Alchemist's Daughter is the story of a remarkable group of women who come together to solve the mystery of a series of gruesome murders—and the bigger mystery of their own origins. Available June 20th from Saga Press!
Mary Jekyll, alone and penniless following her parents' death, is curious about the secrets of her father's mysterious past. One clue in particular hints that Edward Hyde, her father's former friend and a murderer, may be nearby, and there is a reward for information leading to his capture…a reward that would solve all of her immediate financial woes.
But her hunt leads her to Hyde's daughter, Diana, a feral child left to be raised by nuns. With the assistance of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, Mary continues her search for the elusive Hyde, and soon befriends more women, all of whom have been created through terrifying experimentation: Beatrice Rappaccini, Catherine Moreau, and Justine Frankenstein.
When their investigations lead them to the discovery of a secret society of immoral and power-crazed scientists, the horrors of their past return. Now it is up to the monsters to finally triumph over the monstrous.
Fish Parenting and Disability: Finding Nemo
"Fish are friends, not food!"
Before we get into this post, I must make a quick confession: of all of the Pixar films, this is probably the one I resent the most. Not because of anything actually in the film, I must say, but because of what has happened to aquaria since the film's release: Hordes of little children squeaking "NEMO NEMO NEMO LOOK IT'S NEMO" even when the clownfish in question are OBVIOUSLY NOT NEMO SINCE THEIR FINS ARE PERFECTLY FINE SOMETHING YOU MIGHT HAVE NOTICED, KIDS, IF YOU WEREN'T SO BUSY SQUEAKING "NEMO!"
And that's before we get into what this film did to one of the Epcot rides.
And with that out of my system, onto Finding Nemo.
Should The Handmaid's Tale Have Saved Luke?
In Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale, Offred considers that there are multiple, contradictory versions of Luke: He could be alive, plotting with the resistance; alive, and wasting away under back-breaking work in the Colonies; or dead since the day their family was dragged apart. Any of these scenarios are plausible, but as long as she carries them all in her head, she doesn't have to choose for one to be the truth. With the various adaptations of the novel, we now have three different Lukes existing in our pop culture consciousness. Book Luke's fate is never spelled out, and we have no idea if Offred ever even gets closure. Movie Luke is gunned down in the first few minutes. And TV Luke… well, he's surviving.

Why woudl the turm my name over to a collection agencny when I am a good paying customer with an active account?
Well, it all about money. I was told by one of their representatives that when you call in for anything the reps set up NEW accounts to increas their sales and quotas. So, you accout is not taged to an exiisting account. You are a new service. tis being the case, six years later i receive a collection letter for a bill that I have never recieved or was aware.

He's expecting to be sent to Australia soon for a training exercise and is really looking forward to it.

New Delhi, Sep 13 (ANI): Union Minister of Law and Justice Veerappa Moily on Monday said a path breaking legislation to protect whistleblowers will be introduced during the winter session of Parliament.
Addressing the fifth annual Right to Information (RTI) convention here, Moily said confidentiality of the whistleblowers should be protected.
" Whistle blowers' Bill giving protection to civil servants and raising issues of corruption has been finalised and will become a law soon," he added.
Lauding the role of the central information commission, he said the RTI should build a bridge between the people and the government.
Describing the Right to Information Act as a great initiative by the UPA government, Moily hoped it would be effectively used to drive out corruption from society.
He further said the RTI should not become the casualty of corrupt bureaucrats and others. It is quite disturbing to hear the threat administered to RTI activists."
"There are instances of attacks on RTI activists. These attacks and killings have to be taken seriously, dealt with iron hands," he added.
Chief Information Commissioner Wajahat Habibullah expressed hope that the RTI is all set for success.
"It will take the country a great leap forward. It has captured the imagination of the people," he said.
The two-day convention will have five technical sessions covering major aspects of RTI.
The various sessions will deliberate on issues such as: RTI and Public Private Partnership (PPP) Projects, Responsibility of Political Leadership in promoting RTI, RTI and Judiciary, Challenges and Opportunities in RTI - Role and Responsibility of Media/Civil Society Organisations, RTI and Unique Identification Project- Possibilities.
The "Resonance of Information" was first of its kind brought on the occasion of National Convention on RTI in 2006 and the present monograph the second in series. The monograph documents the report and recommendations of two of the conventions of this Commission.
Five years of implementation of RTI Act brought forth many issues both of challenges and opportunities.
The Commission desired to discuss those opportunities and challenges at great length. The theme has thus been so decided. The deliberations of each of the technical sessions are aimed at bringing about the insight on the current issues of the Act and its mapping to the theory and practices of the Right to information in regard to two emerging aspects of public governance, the Public Private Partnership and the UIDIA.
The Central Information Commission has strength of 9 Information Commissioners including the Chief Information Commissioner. In recent times the Commission has made a significant impact regarding disclosure of information in various areas of governance. (ANI)

Over the years, there's one particular sight that Tony Davis has seen more times that he cares to remember: 'Middle-aged punter ambles into the shop, not quite knowing what to expect. Starts with the CDs at the front, then notices the huge vinyl racks at the back of the shop. Eventually, his wife comes in and gently reminds him that they're supposed to be on holiday together. As they leave, they all say the same thing: "I didn't expect to find a shop like this here."' His point is well made. There aren't many more scenically located record shops in Britain than Cob. A mile away, on the other side of the toll road is the wonky Italianate grandeur of Prisoner village Portmeirion, while three minutes in the other direction you'll find small boats dotted along the local harbour.
Cob's success is, according to Davis, 'a happy accident that continues to this day'. What started in 1968 as a sideline selling ex-jukebox records in the family cafe gathered unimaginable momentum. By 1975 Cob's mail order wing employed 30 staff.
Recent years have seen an inevitable slowing down of business. Davis's father Brian says: 'The most worrying times are behind us now.' If it's a surprise to find a shop such as Cob in north-west Wales, it's also hard to imagine it existing anywhere else. The proliferation of ex-hippies who settled in rural Wales keeps its racks teeming with psychedelic and prog-rock rarities - which in turn get snapped up by other ex-hippies (and - in the case of the 1971 Glastonbury Fayre album, with original pyramid insert - excitable OMM writers). 'Recently,' recalls Brian, 'we sold an album by a Shrewsbury combo called Dogfeet for £350.' Last month, the shop was offered £3,000 for their legendarily rare A&M copy of the Sex Pistols' 'God Save the Queen'. 'We actually got it from an auction for £1,000, but we're keeping that one as an investment.' A find like that, says Brian, comes along once every few years. 'Everyone likes to think their old records are worth something, so you have to be a little sensitive when people come into the shop and empty out a bag full of Elton John and Genesis albums. You tell people that you'd have trouble selling it on, and they're surprised. They think that if it's Elton John, it must be valuable. But unless it's the first single he ever released, the one on Philips ['I've Been Loving You' goes for around £300 a throw] then it probably isn't. The world is full of old Elton John albums.'
The best thing about working in a shop like this, says Tony, 'is that you're constantly being stretched. People are constantly singing snatches of something they heard on the telly or the radio. And if you know, you've made someone's day.' Is the customer always easy to please? 'Well, there was the woman who came in asking for a picture disc of a single by the Police shaped to look like a police badge. We had one in stock and we showed it to her. But she wasn't happy. She wanted it on tape.'

CHAPTER 47: Seccond ChoiceMature
Alice and Draco were becoming increasingly distant from eachother, but having more and more sex. Draco was laying on the couch in the common room with Alice snogging him. As she started to unbutton his shirt, he pushed away.
"Alice, we need to talk," he said.
"Don't speak, can't it wait for another time?"
"It. Can't," he said firmly. "This is important, Alice."
She reluctantly got up and moved to the other end of the couch. Draco sat up and faced her.
"What is it?" asked Alice.
"It's just, why don't we ever talk anymore?"
"We're talikng now," she said irritably. She absently twirled a strand of her hair, staring into space. Draco rolled his eyes.
"I meant like we used to. We used to talk all the time and now it seems like all we're doing is having sex."
"Oh come off it," she groaned. "Just two weeks ago you were complaining because you didn't think we were having enough sex." She picked up her wand and twirled it around in the air.
"Well, I wouldn't mind having this much sex if you'd ever actually talk to me!"
"I'm talking to you now, aren't I?" she hissed. "What's your problem Draco?"
"It's just . . . it feels like you don't really love me. Like you just need someone to be attatched to. I'm sorry, Alice . . . but I can't be your seccond choice. I'm breaking up with you."
"Seccond choice," muttered Alice, more to herself than to Draco. Then she loooked up at him. "I understand."
"You-you do?"
"Yeah," she said. "That's why I broke up with Severus. I need to talk to him, actually."

Casey Kasem is Missing
Casey Kasem, 82, is missing, but not in the "wandered off" sense. Kasem suffers from dementia. It's possible all of the family drama, court hearings, and health issues means his wife is hiding him somewhere. Seriously. A court has ordered her to give up his location after she withdrew him from a home. It's a bizarre story for the legendary American Top 40 radio host and voice of 'Shaggy' in "Scooby-Doo." Zoiks!
