What I see in the Mirror
Mr Martel,
I will keep this brief as I know you have many letters to get to, and less time for idol chat.
I have read many books that have changed how I see the world, my place and others pain, but none more relevantly than how your words have changed how I use my voice to discover a truth in everything I see.
I began my journey with Life of Pi- like many of the others who know you not only by name but reputation- nearly seven years ago after many rambling conversations lead a friend to buy me a copy. I sat and read it cover to cover, openly questioning strangers on their interpretation of Pi's journey. Your novel truly changed how I saw the world and how I interpret my own experiences with faith and humanity. It birthed an openness and breadth of reasoning no religious scripture could.
I know you find it difficult and I have heard it is your least favorite subject -which you have commonly refused to discuss- but my journey was enveloped when shortly after Life of Pi I picked up your first novel "Self". I had recently read the Jeffrey Eugenides novel Middlesex, and I was stuck. I found Eugenides use of gender to be limited, an effect of life, a genetic abnormality. Self changed not only how I viewed the world, travel, sex, gender and sexuality, but also writing, my own life experience and how I viewed myself in its wake. The idea of Self is not as limited as who we are born or what has happened to make us change. We are a collage of our experiences, a word jumble to which our gender, sexuality, emotion, thoughts and body are simply happenings, no more relevant than the photograph we took in Venice. We are not made up of these things they simply are apart of us. Your novel was there when nothing else was.
I then read "The Facts behind the Helsinki Roccamatios" found your title story the most moving, and heartfelt atestment to friendship and loyalty I had read.
You are a brilliant writer and with the release of Beatrice and Virgil you did not disappoint. I am still in the process of reading but can not wait to begin the discussions I know will come from finishing another Yann Martel master piece.
My journey has only begun but because of you I now have a grater understanding of not only what I see when I look in the mirror, but how what I know can change what I choose to see.
Thank you again

Analysis Pick of ex-FBI Chief to Lead Trump-Russia Probe: Act of Genius or Desperation?
Israeli acquaintances of Robert Mueller describe him as a decent man, likable and professional, one who makes no allowances for VIPs
Amir Oren is a senior correspondent and columnist for Haaretz and a member of the newspaper's editorial board. He writes about defense and military affairs, the government and international relations.
Israeli acquaintances of Robert Mueller describe him as a decent man, likable and professional, one who makes no allowances for VIPs
Israel's prime minister is also under investigation for alleged misconduct, but unlike the U.S. president he can only rail against law enforcement
And all Israel has to do is declare what territories it intends on trading for the settlement blocs
U.S. spy agency marked Sharon as the next prime minister, forecast the Palestinian uprising and believed the settlements were reversible
The prime minister has thus far imposed bloody immobility with the Palestinians and Israel's other rivals - and doing nothing means eternal war
Both Washington and Jerusalem are laboring under serious leadership crises that will continue as long as Trump and Netanyahu keep at it
The U.S. warning to Israel before its airstrike on a Syrian air base earlier this month and Gen. James Mattis' visit to Israel reflect the increasing trust between the two militaries
Some 1 million papers show what the U.S. knew, or didn't know, about Israeli leaders' health, IDF maneuvers and Moshe Dayan's celebrity status
While there's a gaping gulf between Bashar Assad, his murderous father and David Ben-Gurion, it's vital to remember what happened in 1948
The State Prosecutor's Office insists the Israeli public is not interested in whether the prime minister's wife pays compensation to former workers. But it would say that.

Stocks Continue To Turn In A Lackluster Performance In Early Afternoon Trading - U.S. Commentary
RTTNews - Stocks were able to recover from a modestly weak open on Wednesday and have been bouncing between gains and losses since then. The major averages are extending their lackluster movement into the early afternoon, as reaction to the latest earnings reports has been subdued.
Earlier this morning, traders were presented with quarterly results from big-name companies such as Apple (AAPL), Yahoo! (YHOO), Pfizer (PFE) Boeing (BA), Morgan Stanley (MS), Wells Fargo (WFC), and PepsiCo (PEP).
Reactions were mixed, however, as most firms met or beat estimates by cost cutting rather than revenue growth.
Meanwhile, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke is fielding questions regarding monetary policy as well as the current and near-term economic outlook, testifying before the Senate Banking Committee.
In his prepared remarks, Bernanke reiterated that the U.S. economy is showing signs of stabilization, although he noted that the economy is still in a fragile state, with unemployment high and consumer spending shaky.
Questioning the Fed chief, Sen. Chris Dodd, D-Conn., the chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, said that while some signs of economic recovery have been seen on Wall Street, the benefits have yet to make it to Main Street.
The major averages are currently all in positive territory, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq posting a notable gain. The Dow is currently up 14.67 at 8,930.61, while the Nasdaq is up 10.41 at 1,926.61 and the S&P 500 is up 2.58 at 957.16.
Sector News
Electronic storage and semiconductor stocks continue to see strong gains, with the NYSE Arca Disk Drive Index and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index rising by 3.1 percent and 2.3 percent, respectively. Both indices reached their best intraday levels in over nine months earlier in the session.
Housing stocks are also advancing by considerable margins on the day, as reflected by the 3.4 percent gain being shown by the Philadelphia Housing Sector Index. The index has resumed its recent upward move and has reached its best intraday level in six weeks.
Lennar (LEN) is turning in one of the housing sector's best performances, with the homebuilder surging up by 8.2 percent. The day's upward move has propelled the stock to its best intraday price in over two months.
While health insurance and transportation stocks are also on the rise, the day's gains are being limited by weakness in the resource and financial sectors.
Oil service and steel stocks are leading the resource sector lower, with a decline in the price of oil contributing to the losses by oil stocks. The financial service sector is moving lower following a negative reaction to quarterly results from Morgan Stanley and Wells Fargo.
Stocks In The News
Starbucks (SBUX) is surging higher in early afternoon trading after the company reported adjusted third quarter net income of $0.24 per share, compared to $0.16 per share in the prior year quarter. The firm exceeded Wall Street forecasts of $0.19 per share and said it is on pace to beat yearly EPS estimates. The stock is up by 18.5 percent and reached its best intraday price in over eleven months earlier in the session.
Shares of Linear Technology (LLTC) said its adjusted fourth quarter net income was $0.31 per share, compared to $0.51 per share in the year ago quarter. The results beat analyst estimates of $0.22 per share as did quarterly revenues. Shares of the integrated circuit manufacturer are up by 7.6 percent, rising to their highest intraday level in over nine months.
On the other hand, shares of Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) are plunging after the company posted a second quarter loss that was wider than analysts had expected. The stocks has plummeted by 12.5 percent, backing further off of the one-month closing high set on Monday.
In Focus: Earnings Reports
Tech giant Apple reported a third quarter profit of $1.35 per share, compared to profit of $1.19 per share in the year-ago quarter. Wall Street analysts expected the company to earn $1.17 per share for the quarter, while the company's quarterly sales also beat estimates.
Yahoo! revealed second-quarter earnings of $0.10 per share, compared to $0.09 per share in the prior year quarter. The results beat analyst expectations of $0.08 per share, and third quarter revenue estimates also cleared forecasts by a notable margin.
Drug maker Pfizer Inc. announced adjusted second quarter net income of $0.48 per share, compared to $0.55 per share in the same quarter last year. Although the firm met Wall Street expectations of $0.48 per share, quarterly revenues fell well short.
Boeing Co. said its second-quarter net income was $1.41 per share, compared to $1.16 per share in the same period last year. The earnings crushed earnings forecasts of $1.21 per share, while revenues came in-line with estimates.
Morgan Stanley reported a second quarter net loss of $1.10, compared to net income of $1.02 in the year ago quarter. Wall Street looked for the financial services giant to show a loss of $0.49 per share, while the firm's revenues met forecasts.
Meanwhile, Wells Fargo, PepsiCo, QLogic (QLGC), and Altria (MO) posted results that exceeded estimates.
Other Markets
In overseas trading, stock markets across the Asia-Pacific region turned in a mixed performance on Wednesday. While Japan's benchmark Nikkei 225 Index posted a 0.7 percent gain, Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index fell by 1.3 percent.
Meanwhile, the major European markets all closed modestly higher, with the German DAX Index and the U.K.'s FTSE 100 Index finishing up by 0.5 percent and 0.3 percent, respectively, while the French CAC 40 Index lagged behind, posting a gain of only 0.1 percent.
In the bond markets, treasuries continue to see modest weakness. Subsequently the yield on the benchmark ten-year note is trading at 3.510 percent, posting a gain of 3.3 basis points on the day.

IRCCS Istituto Nazionale Tumori, Rionero In Vulture Pz, Italy
PURPOSE: A prospective randomized study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a polymeric sealant (Coseal(r)) to reduce air leaks reported by a digital chest drainage system ("DigiVentTM"), and to improve postoperative outcome in patients undergoing lung resection.
METHODS: Between March 2008 and July 2009, 125 (100 M, 25 F) patients showing moderate/severe intraoperative air leaks after pulmonary resection (n=111) or after pleural decortications with/without adesiolysis (n=76) have been prospectively enrolled and randomly assigned to receive: suture/stapling [n=65 - standard group (SG)] or suture/stapling plus Coseal [n=60 - Coseal group (CG)].
RESULTS: The overall air leakage incidence was 12.5%. In the SG the incidence of the air leakage has been higher (20%) than the patients of the CG (8.3%). In the CG the dose of application after the first leak evidence has been of 4 ml in the 86% of the cases and 8 ml in the remainder 14%. After the second verification, the persistence of air leak has been observed in 4 patients, and it has regressed with a second application of only 4 ml in drop.Intraoperative air leak cessation rate was higher in the CG with a statistically significant difference (85.3% vs 59.4%; p < 0.001). Duration of air leaks was significantly shorter in the CG (5 vs 12 days) (p = 0.01). The hospital stay was shorter in the Coseal Group (mean: 5 vs 10 days) and the chest tube withdrawal time was longer in SG (7 vs 5 days).
CONCLUSION: The application of Coseal sealant proved safe and effective in reducing air leaks (revealed by a Digital Air System) occurring after lung resection and in shortening the duration of postoperative air leak with a trend towards a shorter postoperative hospital stay.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Air leaks is objectively revealed by Digital Drainage System, Coseal(r) sealant improve quality of life and reduce hospital stay after lung resection.

The lonely boys.
The phone rang, he wasn't stopping until he had Menetta in his clutches. He wanted him because of the mystyrious artiffact called the Existance Star, a small round pendent that held the power of the universe inside it. This pendent could lead that monster to the Ark of Stars or Grettsa Oknatta which would rebuild world in his image. Menetta lifted the rieciver to his ear.
"Hello?" He asked, the man on the other end laughed at him.
"You know what I want boy. Give it to me!" He demanded. Menetta slamed the rieciver down and got a bag, the pendent was going to lead me to that Ark. I was going to destroy it once and for all.

Mining group Xstrata is set to launch a £4.1bn rights issue, leading to mandates for magic circle rivals Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer and Linklaters.
Freshfields has emerged as the main corporate adviser to Xtrata, having worked on its hostile bid for Falconbridge in 2006.
Corporate partner Julian Makin worked on that deal and has also been instructed for the rights issue alongside corporate partner Graham Watson.
Linklaters is acting for the banks, which include JPMorgan Cazenove and Deutsche Bank. The Linklaters team is being headed by corporate partners Charlie Jacobs and John Lane.
Xstrata will use the proceeds of the share issue to pay down its debt and purchase coal assets in Columbia.
Both Freshfields and Linklaters also won roles in the Anglo Swiss company's last rights issue in 2003. Linklaters' head of banking John Tucker and Jacobs advised the underwriting banks, JPMorgan and Deutsche.
The Freshfields team acting for Xstrata on the £900m issue was led by corporate partner Jeremy Pitkin.

Chapter 3Mature
We arrived at my block a half hour later. I told the driver to park in my drive as I got the money. He obliged and his mouth hung open slightly at the house. It was the house I shared with my gir—ex girlfriend. This would be awkward, I said to myself, jogging lightly up the steps to the front door. Crap, where were my keys? I checked all seven of my pockets: nothing. I came to thinking if I ever saw Jack again, I'd kill him.
It came to be that I had to ring my own doorbell, just hoping Sophie was home. After a few seconds I realised that she would be able to see me through the peephole and decide not to let me in. I decided not to let her know, and put my thumb over the small glass circle.
Somehow I imagined her walking carefully down the marble stairs after just coming out the shower, ringing her hair to dry it slightly with a white towel wrapped around her skinny body. I smiled stupidly. She would come back to me, I hoped and thought. She would. No... She will come back to me.
She opened the door cautiously. Sophie stared at me for a moment as I stood there sheepishly. It looked as if she didn't know what to feel. We had only broken up the night before, just before I had gone to the bar.
"Oh... Foster... Hello. Where were you last night?" I looked her up and down, her skirt swayed as she laid a hand on her hip judgingly. Sophie raised her eyebrows when I didn't reply.
"Sorry, I was just... out drinking. I met someone and we just had a laugh." I knew there was no point lying to her, but it didn't mean I had to tell all the truth straight away.
"Someone? A girl?"
I walked past her into the kitchen and I heard her soft footsteps on the wood following me.
"No. A guy. No, I'm not gay, you know that." I chuckled awkwardly as I fumbled, looking for money.
"What did you do with this... guy?" She leant against the counter and tucked her dark hair behind her ears.
"We talked. I told him how I broke up with someone. And how that someone was the most amazing person I had ever met and was the most beautiful girl I'd ever seen. I told him I was an idiot for losing her." I said, almost casually. I had avoided looking directly at her as I spoke, but hearing a sharp intake of breath, I wanted to know what that meant.
"Oh, Foster. This isn't like the movies. You don't know what you said last night, do you? You were drunk. Don't lie, you're hung-over." She smiled slightly then walked to the other side of the room. But I could tell she was still staring at me with narrowed eyes. Silence took over the room for a few moments as I still searched.
Finally, I found money.
"What are you doing with that?" Sophie said as I began to start out the room.
"Giving it to the taxi driver, I ended up the other side of town with the guy I mentioned... and I left my wallet at his house." I lied. I thought it had been an unsuccessful lie, but Sophie didn't want to know the truth, so left it at that.
"It's not your money. It's ours. But I will let you pay him." She waved a hand carelessly and I frowned slightly but picked up the pace to give the money to the bored driver who was still outside.
The sun had come out properly now and it felt good on my back. That's a point... Hadn't Sophie wondered where my shirt was? I shrugged to myself and handed the money to the driver, who nodded and left.
"Wait... how did you manage to leave your wallet at this guy's house? You never leave anything behind." Sophie had followed me outside so now I was at the bottom of the steps and her at the top. She folded her arms.
"I don't know... I just did." My headache was back again but I wasn't about to show it.
"Did you leave your shirt there too?"
I looked down, already knowing full well I was bare chest. I thought about my response for a moment, but Sophie didn't give me a chance to lie.
"Oh and by the way, your friend dropped this off for you." She turned and went inside, I was at her heels.
Jack couldn't have come here, could he?

Kunstar A. - Recognizing different tissues in human fetal femur cartilage by label-free Raman microspectroscopy
Aliz Kunstar, Jeroen Leijten, Stefan van Leuveren, Janneke Hilderink, Cees Otto, Clemens A. van Blitterswijk, Marcel Karperien, and Aart A. van Apeldoorn
Journal of Biomedical Optics 2012
Traditionally, the composition of bone and cartilage is determined by standard histological methods. We
used Raman microscopy, which provides a molecular "fingerprint" of the investigated sample, to detect differences
between the zones in human fetal femur cartilage without the need for additional staining or labeling. Raman area
scans were made from the (pre)articular cartilage, resting, proliferative, and hypertrophic zones of growth plate
and endochondral bone within human fetal femora. Multivariate data analysis was performed on Raman spectral
datasets to construct cluster images with corresponding cluster averages. Cluster analysis resulted in detection of
individual chondrocyte spectra that could be separated from cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM) spectra and
was verified by comparing cluster images with intensity-based Raman images for the deoxyribonucleic acid/
ribonucleic acid (DNA/RNA) band. Specific dendrograms were created using Ward's clustering method, and principal
component analysis (PCA) was performed with the separated and averaged Raman spectra of cells and ECM of
all measured zones. Overall (dis)similarities between measured zones were effectively visualized on the dendrograms
and main spectral differences were revealed by PCA allowing for label-free detection of individual cartilaginous
zones and for label-free evaluation of proper cartilaginous matrix formation for future tissue engineering and
clinical purposes

Texas defensive tackle Chris Whaley didn't mince words after Texas's 44-23 loss to Ole Miss on Saturday.
"Of course we were the most talented team, but we are not playing Texas football: aggressive, full-speed and fighting," Whaley said. "We have to get back to having the kind of Texas attitude that past teams have had. They were the more physical team against every team that they played."
The frustrating part about the Longhorns' loss to a team that Texas blew out 66-31 a year ago is the fact that Texas — just one week after getting blown out of the water — showed flashes of being the team that Whaley envisions.
After Ole Miss ramped up to a lightning quick 14-0 start, Texas actually scored the next 23 points, and appeared to be headed into the halftime break up two scores. There were positive signs all around — backup quarterback Case McCoy was a safe 11-for-13 for 104 yards and a touchdown, Johnathan Gray rushed for 82 yards on 14 carries and another score, while the defense held Ole Miss to just 75 yards in the 23:26 after those first two Rebel touchdown drives.
Then, just before halftime, safety Adrian Phillips was tagged with a controversial targeting call. When a player is hit with a targeting decision, he is automatically ejected from the game. The review of the play goes straight up to the booth, with officials looking to see whether the offending player did, in fact, target the defenseless receiver. Here's where the rule gets tricky — if the officials decide that no targeting occurred, the player may reenter the game. His ejection can be overturned. But the penalty itself cannot, so the 15 yards are still assessed.
The officials determined that Phillips didn't target, and he stayed in the game. But the 15-yard penalty stayed on the books and gave Ole Miss the ball at the Texas 35. One incomplete pass later and kicker Andrew Ritter booted through a 52-yard field goal as time expired to cut the Texas lead to one score.
"I thought the three points for them, if you give up points right before the half, it's a killer," said Texas coach Mack Brown. "You've got to go back and take your momentum back in the second half. That is an age-old rule in sports and in football, and we didn't do either. We let them have the momentum going in. We didn't take the momentum going out in the second half, and we never got it back."
Indeed, Texas never responded. The Longhorns put up 100 second-half yards and zero second-half points, while Ole Miss used a 21-point third quarter to jump out to its own multi-score lead.
In the fourth quarter, Texas twice started drives in Ole Miss territory — first, thanks to a 51-yard kickoff return by Kendall Sanders and later, thanks to a punt down to the 1 by Anthony Fera and an ensuing quick stop. But the first drive resulted in a quick three-and-out, while the second resulted in a first down and the ball at the Rebel 36. But on second-and-10, running back Malcolm Brown rushed forward to block a pass-rusher and knocked the ball out of McCoy's hands. Ole Miss recovered and drove down for a quick insurance score. The Rebels traveled 59 yards in just four plays, all on the ground.
"Really, they were running the same play over and over again," said linebacker Jordan Hicks. "It's pretty disappointing."
Overall, Ole Miss had 449 yards yards against Texas, working under new defensive coordinator Greg Robinson, including 272 rushing yards while averaging 6.0 yards per carry. Jeff Scott led the way with a career-high 164 rushing yards on 19 carries and a touchdown. Scott also added a 73-yard punt return touchdown just before the end of the third quarter.
"I don't think [Robinson] can be really effective in the first three days, which is what he had tonight," Brown said. "But next week, I think we'll start seeing more progress. They obviously played better tonight than they did last week."
Robinson, for the most part, was positive afterward.
"There's good talent here," Robinson said. "There is good talent.
"In '04, we were a young game except for D.J. [Derrick Johnson] and a couple of other guys," Robinson said. "But really, the longer we played, the better we got. I think this group has got some of that in them too. I think the more we keep playing, the better we're going to get."
The offense, meanwhile, was hampered by the absence of starting quarterback David Ash — who didn't even attend the game, on advice from doctors — explosive weapon Daje Johnson and two starting offensive linemen after injuries to both Mason Walters and Josh Cochran early, though guard Sedrick Flowers was excellent, especially in the first half, in replacing Walters. Kennedy Estelle drew the regular duty at right tackle when Cochran left.
The Longhorns were 3-of-7 on third downs in the first half, and finished the first half with 220 total yards and 23 points. Texas sputtered in the second half, failing to reach the scoreboard and going just 1-for-8 on third downs as McCoy, so efficient early on, had a 13-for-26 second half where he threw for 92 yards. After his hot start, Gray had five carries for nine yards.
"I thought we were able to run the ball in the first half," said Texas offensive coordinator Major Applewhite. "In the second half, we weren't as effective."
Texas had the third-largest crowd ever to see a Longhorn game, at 101,474, on hand to watch the Longhorns fall to 1-2 for the first time since Mack Brown's inaugural year as Texas coach. Ole Miss jumped to 3-0 for the first time since 1989.
Still, the team has yet to play a conference game, which means that the team's goal of taking home the Big 12 championship is still attainable, even if it appears somewhat unlikely.
"We win the Big 12 championship, we'll be excited, and that's all we've got left," Brown said. "Our guys will go back to work. They've been around here before. They understand outside stuff and they understand what's important, and they'll work hard this week."

Letters from a Stranger
Jen is a devoted wife who dreams of a place where she will be free from the torment that she faces every day with an abusive husband. Overwhelmed by pain and stress, she contemplates suicide, considering anything to be free. Her days are consumed with fear and dread... until the letters start coming.
January 29, 2005
'Today wasn't the first time he's hit me, but it was the first time he didn't beg for my forgiveness with emphatic promises that he would never do it again. This time, he explained to me in tortuous detail how it was entirely my fault and that if only I would have kept my mouth shut he would not have had to hit me.
I am so exhausted. Will this insanity ever come to an end? Will I ever know joy? What do I need to do to make this man recognize that I love him? Please, God, show me a sign if I am not supposed to be with this man. How did I ever end up in this situation? I know better than this. I am not a victim! Yet, here I am, bruised and broken. Please teach me how to be a better wife. Please teach me how to love my husband better.
'I often fantasize about running away to a far away and magical place where I would be free from fear and pain, some place that would cause me to smile and to laugh for no particular reason at all. Is there really such a place for me? Could I really live a life free from...'
"What are you doing now, Jen?" Brian interrupted, "Didn't I tell you to stop writing in that stupid book?"
"Yes, Sir. I'm sorry, I should have already put it away and started dinner cooking," Jen replied carefully. "Does steak and rice sound okay for tonight?"
"Forget it," he grumbled as he pulled his coat off the rack. "I'll just get something out tonight."
"Yes, Sir."
"You can eat leftovers or starve for all I care," Brian yelled. "You always do whatever you want anyway! Do you ever stop to think that your husband might need something! Just go write in your idiotic book all you want. While you're at it, you should write me up a new wife that can provide a decent meal at a decent time for her husband."
"I love you," Jen said softly as Brian stormed out of the house, slamming the door behind him. Jen slumped down onto the couch, curled into a ball as a single tear slid down her cheek. She took in a deep breath when she heard his truck drive away.
She wondered what had happened to the man that she fell in love with years ago, reminiscing about when they first met. Jen was never the sort of girl who was overly concerned with appearances. She thought it more essential that one have a kind heart and interesting personality. Brian seemed to have both in large quantity. When they first began dating, Brian was such a gentleman. Doors were always opened for her, chairs always pulled out, and compliments were generously expressed.
Wherever they were, whatever they did, Jen was always the focus of Brian's attention. He would smile every time Jen looked at him. His smiles always caused her to blush and look away. Brian was very gentle with her when they were alone. She felt blessed to be near him... in the beginning. That was before everything changed and she spent the following six years learning to take a punch.
At that thought Jen laughed, "I should have been a professional boxer!" She shook herself back into the moment and picked up her journal.
"I have so much to do," she said to herself. "Brian is right, I write in this journal too much. I needed to go through the mail and pay the bills anyway." She began to sort through the day's mail; a visa credit card application, Wal-Mart advertisement, water bill, gas bill... and a letter.
Out of habit, she almost opened the letter, but then suddenly realized that the letter was addressed to someone else. "Christine Madison," she read out loud. "Hmm... correct address, but wrong name."
The return address was from someone named Eric Marshall. The envelope was covered with a pencil drawing of a beautiful landscape. Her eyes remained fixated on the magnificent detail of the grass in the picture. She'd never seen such exquisite work done in pencil before. Realizing that she had been entranced for far too long, she quickly tossed the letter, along with all of the junk mail, into the trash can.
After completing the daunting task of paying bills, Jen picked up the journal to finish her last entry:
'Could I really live a life free from fear and pain? Maybe someday I will be blessed with the grand fortune of waking up in that magical place, beside a wonderful man who at least could behave as if he loves me. Perhaps I will simply end it all with a bottle of pills instead. That worked for Mom. However, I suppose even that I would manage to screw up somehow. So, I will just continue to write in this fabulous journal, do the next thing in front of me to do, and pray.'
She closed her journal and put it back into her picture box and under the bed. She went to the bathroom mirror to inspect the damage. Both of her eyes were bruised in shades of red and black, most likely from what appeared to be another broken nose. "How the heck am I going to explain this one to the doctor?" Jen said to herself. She continued to search her face for evidence. All she found was a five day old bruise that had turned a disturbing shade of yellow on her left cheekbone from the well placed right hook from her darling husband.
Jen sat down on the edge of the bed and put her face in her hands. She wondered if she would ever run out of tears. One more day was gone forever. Tomorrow would be different she hoped. Somehow, she would figure out a way to make it good.
A quiet prayer escaped her lips, "God, thank you for getting me through that last beating quickly. I ask that you give me the strength to get up in the morning to go take care of my self. Please give me the right words I need to say to the doctor. Be with my husband and keep him safe. Allow me to rest peacefully tonight. Amen."
At the conclusion of her prayer, she undressed and climbed into bed and cried herself to sleep once again. She dreamed of her magical far away place and the wonderful man who would love her.
Jen was awoken at 3:20 am to Brian stroking her hair gently as he leaned slightly over her. She opened her eyes to see him gazing softly at her face in their moonlit bedroom. Brian ran his finger softly down the swollen bridge of Jen's broken nose and whispered, "I sure hope that doesn't happen again baby. Your nose is too cute to ruin." And with that, he kissed her in a way that would normally have seemed passionate, but this time she struggled to separate his kiss from the broken nose. She kissed him back, but could not stop herself from thinking about all the blows to her face that she received from him just hours before. This time, she was having difficulty getting it all out of her head. She wanted desperately to scream, but she kept silent. Brian's touch was gentle, but full of lies. She closed her eyes and went to her far away place.
"Wake up lazy," Brian said as he kicked Jen's leg under the blanket. Her eyes shot open. "I need some breakfast before I leave for work." Jen jumped out of bed and quickly dressed herself.
While Brian showered, she cooked his breakfast; French toast and eggs sunny side up, his favorite. In her best passive aggressive manner, Jen ran water in the kitchen sink until she heard Brian scream from the shower. "Oops. Did I do that?" Jen giggled. She fantasized about the different ways she could surreptitiously get back at him. She sighed deeply and smiled a smile that stretched all the way across her bruised face.
While Brian continued to get ready for work, Jen packed his lunch for him and then hurried around the house collecting laundry to wash.
She began to sing, "I've been working on the laundry, every freaking day. I've been working on the laundry, just to pass the time away. Can't you hear that husband screaming? Rise up so early in the morn'. Can't you hear the husband shouting, 'Jennifer, make me some breakfast!"'

Miracle Over Miami: How the 2003 Marlins Shocked the World
€ 23,49
Lieferbar innert 2 Wochen
März 2004
BeschreibungNobody gave them a chance. The experts said their manager was too old, their pitching was too young, and their ownership was too frugal to compete against experienced opponents with deeper pockets. What rivals did not realize, however, was that the Florida Marlins were making the most of their march toward the Emerald City. Like the Tin Man and the Cowardly Lion, the team coupled heart and courage to survive what seemed like insurmountable obstacles, clinching the National League wild card with just two games left to play. In the playoffs, Florida again fooled the forecasters. After spotting one-and two-game leads against the Giants and Cubs, the Marlins battled back in both series to beat the odds and grab the second pennant in team history. Winning the World Series, especially against an experienced Yankees club whose payroll was more than three times the size of Florida's, was just another David versus Goliath triumph for the Little Teal Machine. Bunt hits, speed on the bases, timely hitting, solid defense, and potent pitching proved to get the better of Goliath in the end. "Miracle Over Miami: How the 2003 Marlins Shocked the World is the story of the most unlikely world championship in recent memory, a lesson in how to build a winning team with limited resources, how to plug holes with rookies and acquisitions, and how to win by having fun. Jeff Conine is the only man to play for both Florida world championship teams. In a rare inside-the-clubhouse look he shares his thoughts on his teammates, compares the 1997 and 2003 teams, and describes what it was like to be member of a miraculous team. All the heroes are here: rabbits Juan Pierre and Luis Castillo, local heroes Mike Lowelland Pudge Rodriguez, rookies Dontrelle Willis and Miguel Cabrera, flamethrowing pitchers Josh Beckett and Ugueth Urbina, and cigar-smoking manager Jack McKeon. Fans are invited to once again come to the land of black-and-teal in "Miracle Over Miami, where nothing is impossible and the Marlins rule the planet.

Kim Kardashian visited an orphanage in Thailand recently, and took a shine to a 12-year-old girl called Pink. And after expressing an interest in adopting Pink, the young orphan refused.
The orphanage in Phang Na province, where thousands of people died in the 2004 tsunami is run down and packed with children that badly need homes and loving families.
However the reason Pink rejected the offer from millionaire Kim is not what you'd expect.
She said: "When I found out she wanted to adopt me, I was shaking. I was so excited. It would be such a change of life for me. Everyone wants to have a different or a better life, I suppose. But when I thought about it I realised it wouldn't be good for me, because I would have to leave so much behind. I wasn't ready for that."
She then went on to explain how she wouldn't want to leave the other children behind, who she helps and cares for on a daily basis. Add that to the fact that she wants to stay focused on her studies. Brilliant.
Although having the double car crash of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West as parents is probably enough to scare any child away. So we don't blame her.
Poor girl.

Always from Somewhere Else: A Memoir of My Chilean Jewish Fatherby Marjorie Agosin, Elizabeth Rosa Horan, Elizabeth Rosa Horan

In the tradition of her critically acclaimed memoir of her mother, A Cross and a Star, Marjorie Agosín traces the life story of her father, Moisés Agosín, a doctor, scientist, and classical pianist whose life reflects the lives of so many Jews of his generation, who were destined to be always refugees, always "others"always from/i>
In the tradition of her critically acclaimed memoir of her mother, A Cross and a Star, Marjorie Agosín traces the life story of her father, Moisés Agosín, a doctor, scientist, and classical pianist whose life reflects the lives of so many Jews of his generation, who were destined to be always refugees, always "others"always from somewhere else.
In the search for her father's origins, Agosín reaches into the past to the story of her grandparents, a tailor and a cigarette maker who met in Odessa in 1890. In their flight from persecution and their search for a better life, Abraham and Rachel Agosín traveled to Istanbul, then briefly to Marseilles, where Moisés is born in the interim between two long sea journeys, "saved from the waters" like the biblical Moses. The family's continuing search for a home brings them at last to Chilefirst to the port city of Valparaiso and then to the fertile central valley, to Quillota, "city of churches and avocados," where they find a measure of stability but remain, outsiders.
Moisés Agosín studies in the capital, Santiago, and becomes a medical doctor and a respected research scientist. But decades after his parents' voyages, as Chile falls under the dictatorship of Pinochet, he takes his family on their final journey of exile, to the United States. Here he is once again treated as an outsiderthis time, as a refugee from the "Third World." And here Marjorie herself grows up understanding that for her family, life has taken the form of a fragile, incongruous thread, destined to be spent "roaming from country to country, waiting for letters, inventing new languages, remembering distant ones".
Marjorie Agosín weaves stories from the past and reflections from the present into a unique, poetic memoir. Her homage to her father becomes much more than a simple life story; it is a captivating and moving meditation on the boundaries of national and cultural identities, the meanings of exile and home, and the legacies of storytelling, memory, and love.

Each table had two pink damask table cloths on them in a pattern that I recognised from my grandmother's time and emblazoned with the crest of the company. On the wall above the door was a plaster relief of Massimo d'Aglezio, the man after whom the hotel and restaurant were named. It was dull ...
Back at the Airport
Chilling back at the Rome airport after a crazy busy couple of days in Rome. I absolutely love this city! Gorgeous buildings, historical sites everywhere you turn, amazing food, and delicious STRONG coffee - whats not to love! I only wish we had another week here so I could really get my bearings and brush up on my Italian! Yesterday was a whirlwind of activity; we managed to visit the colosseum, the roman forum, the pantheon, and a couple of other landmarks which I can't remember ...
That thing has TOO much pressure!
... Finally, we decided to take a stand and spread our group to take up the width of the line. The European couple behind us started laughing hysterically and told us that they like how we think! We admired the intricate interior of the church and then made our way up 551 claustrophobic steps to the top of the cupola. Here, we had an amazing bird's eye view of St. Peter's square and an even more spectacular view of Rome! It was well worth the climb! ...

Excellent food, excellent service at good price value.
Food was just great as well the service and the ambiance.
Big portions and with a real note of Indian spices.
Service is slow beyond the norm and completely lacking when we needed more water etc. The portions were ridiculously small and uninteresting. We had a fish focused selection of dishes. The presentation was pathetic on some of the dishes. I was very surprised as some of the dishes ordered ended up being quite different from the description. Maybe I expected...
We had the pleasure to eat st Saffron last year and I was more than happy to go back with some friends. The restaurant is very well designed and in summer time has tables outside on the terrace. Food is either fusion with an Asian influence or you can have revised Classic Italian . Both choice for our group were...
The place is stylish, the food is excellent, the service is great: the perfect place to be when you want to cherish yourself and taste a not everyday dishes.
It's more nice in spring and summer when you can eat outside on the "terrace".
The wine choice is wide with a good quality, just go there when you are not...
The "fusion" offered in this elegantly decorated restaurant is optional. You can order sushi and other dishes with Asian inspirations, or you can enjoy a creative Italian dinner with emphasis on seafood. We chose the latter approach for our first visit.
The insalata di mazzancolle, seppie e carciofi was an inspired beginning. The seppie were of high quality and delicately...
A fantastic fusion restaurant in the center Of Arezzo. Great design and atmosphere and had a very good sushi for a change from pasta.
The place is fancy, the food is cheap. I did not get what they are trying to do: it's not an asian restaurant, it's not fusion and it's not traditional. It seems that a drunk guy wrote the menu. No style at all, small portions and too expensive. If you don't have any idea about international food that's a place...

The cover photo on this month's Texas Monthly got us to thinking.
Featuring Rep. Joaquin Castro, San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro and state Sen. Wendy Davis, it served as a reminder -- to us at least -- that the Democratic political bench in Texas is quite strong. To be clear: None of this trio of Texas Democrats will likely be running statewide in 2014 (or maybe even in 2016 or 2018). But, they do offer the party some real hope as it looks to the future.
The strength of a state party's bench -- the younger candidates in state legislatures, mayor's office or other lower-level elected offices -- is a leading indicator of down-the-line success. A party with a strong bench in a state are like an NBA team with lots of young talent; they may not be all that good yet but everyone knows they likely will be at some point. (Perfect example: The Golden State Warriors in the run-up to this past season.)
The Fix loves NOTHING more than searching for the next big political talents currently toiling out of the national spotlight. So, with Texas as an example of a state with a strong Democratic bench, we want to hear from the members of the Fixworld as to what other states have a really strong crop of young talent -- either Republican or Democratic.
In the comments section below, nominate the state (and a handful of its young stars). We'll aggregate all of the nominations in a Fix post either later this week or early next week. You can also tweet your picks with the hashtag #politicalbench.
Get to it!
