No current Talk conversations about this book.
I started out not liking this book at all--I couldn't stand the dialect in the early pages--but it really grew on me. I thought it was very moving and that the characters were well-drawn. I've read that some people felt there was not enough payoff, but I thought the ending was very poignant. So thumbs up, even if four stars does feel a tiny bit generous.
Can someone explain how twins that grew up together for 10 or so years - obviously learning the speak together - somehow managed to talk so drastically different? The one who went to school says things like "knowed" and "I seen," but the one with very little education seems to talk completely normal, save the occasional "reckon." OMG.
Update: Even though I was irritated with a large chunk of the book, in retrospect, it wasn't that bad. I liked the story and the characters, just not the way they spoke.
Once I finished, the story didn't stay with me. I was able to pick up another book within 10 minutes of completing Bloodroot. To me, that pretty much says it all.
Review: Bloodroot by Amy Greene.
The novel is divided into three sections and an epilogue. Amy Greene did a great job creating the setting, and the characters traits were well developed, which made the story interesting because there were quite a few characters. This story was about a family's saga in rural life in the Appalachian Mountains through four generations. The story is told from several different perspectives, but the focus of the book was Myra Odom, a girl with "haint" blue eyes and the power to draw people to her. Amy Greene weaved through events like a pro to give the attention of Myra's story a mystical feeling with Myra's grandmother, a childhood neighbor who had a crush on Myra, and Myra's twins and the accounts of Myra's abusive husband, the love of her life.
It stated out slow but once I got into the story, especially the first part, I couldn't put the book down. The character, Byrdie, the grandmother, was soulful and charming and demonstrates a keen voice which seemed authentic, magical, and brought her life on Bloodroot Mountain together with love, losses and poverty.
The second part wasn't as good and lacked the dynamic force during Johnny's and Laura's, the twins, narrations. However, their vagabond childhood ways was vital to the story but to much of it just clutters the pages. Through the twins the reader learns of Myra's descent into mental illness, the event of their father, Johnny disappearing, and than their shuffling around in foster homes, finally their separation from each other was a horrific trauma that no child should have to go through.
The third part of the book is narrated by Myra herself. By this time the reader has heard about Myra from the people that loved her most. Myra's story was the capstone of the book. Her essence was convincing, primal, and grounded. At times Amy Greene utilized the mystical powers of Myra's character to create convenient plot twist, such as the gift of "vision" to set up chance encounters, a little bit of clever subtle added to the writing….
Now the reader comes to the epilogue, written from the abuser's perspective. It's the tale about John Odom's miraculous redemption. He only wishes the best for Myra…Who is he kidding…He wasn't even a decent person with an angry streak. He was evil to the core…..
I enjoyed the book, part one and three were well written and captivating. Even with the second part not as enticing, maybe a little under the weather but I still recommend the book.
Myra Lamb was born on Bloodroot Mountain within the Smoky Mountains with "haint blue" eyes, a sign to her grandmother that the family curse had been broken. Her grandmother raised her to love the flora and fauna on Bloodroot Mt. Myra's grandmother sisters were all gifted as healers and diviners. Myra's life as a child on Bloodroot Mt. and off as an adult is told from the perspective of several narrators: Myra's grandmother, a neighbor boy who possessed an unrequited love, her twin children, her abusive husband who loved and hated her, and Myra herself.
This debut historical novel describes well the nature of this region. Although beautifully written novel, it's not a pretty one. I fell in love with the writing even if is not a feel good book.
Greene examines several generations of a family living in the Smoky Mountains of Eastern Tennessee. I wanted to like this book. It has been on my TBR list for a while and I typically like books that focus on family dynamics and the individual's need to experience the world beyond their childhood framework. I was intrigued by the publisher's blurb – a story that explored family legacies of madness and magic (a healing "touch" that soothes both people and animals). The central character – Myra Lamb – is a woman with "haint-blue" eyes, who seems to bewitch everyone around her just by the force of her being. The plot whirls around Myra but never really settles.
Basically, the book just didn't do it for me. I thought the storyline was too choppy and confusing. The multiple narrators and shifting time frames were at first intriguing but eventually resulted in my losing focus. I kept waiting for the "story" to really take off, and it never did – at least not for me. I was never riveted by the novel and found it too easy to put it aside to do other things.
In unadorned but assured prose, Greene then takes her readers to the hardscrabble world of foster homes and juvenile detention centers, of life in a blue-collar Appalachian town.
Greene's novel is undeniably appealing, in the way its weird swirl of Southern Gothic and bleak domestic drama keeps the pages turning. But the overall impression the novel leaves is lacking. Greene is apparently unable to truly confront some of the novel's darker moments, and is more interested in Appalachia as a sort of mystical Shangri-la.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0307269868, Hardcover)Amazon Best Books of the Month, January 2010: Bloodroot is that rare sort of family saga that feels intimate instead of epic. Set in Tennessee's Smoky Mountains, it's told largely in tandem voices that keep watchful eyes on Myra Lamb. She is a child of the mountain, tied to the land in ways that mystify and enchant those around her. There's magic to Myra--perhaps because she has the remarkable blue eyes foretold by a nearly-forgotten family curse--but little fantasy to her life. Bloodroot is as much about the Lambs as it is about a place, one that becomes ever more vivid as generations form, break free, and knit back together. Its characters speak plainly but true, they are resilient and flawed and beautiful, and there's a near-instant empathy in reading their stories, which--even in their most visceral moments--are alluring and wonderful. --Anne Bartholomew
A Q&A with Amy Greene
Question: You've lived all your life in East Tennessee's Smoky Mountains, a part of the country you depict vividly in Bloodroot. How did you imbue a familiar place with such detail and even magic? What was it like to put the language you'd heard all your life into words on the page, as dialogue?
Amy Greene: There is, I think, an intimacy with the landscape that comes with living here. Most of my childhood was spent outdoors, a part of my experience that emerges naturally in my writing. Bringing the language I've heard all my life to the page also came easily. It was instinctive to appropriate the voices of my family, friends and neighbors for the characters I was exploring in Bloodroot. The challenge was actually in dialing back the language once I had poured it onto the page, making it accessible to people who aren't familiar with these expressions and colloquialisms.
Question: Six different character--men and women, old and young--narrate Bloodroot. Which characters or voices came to you first? Who was the most difficult to write, and who was the easiest? Did you have any particular people in your own life in mind when you came up with these characters originally? How did you invent the totally unique Ford Hendrix?
Amy Greene: I envisioned Johnny and Laura first, not as children but as young adults. I considered writing a short story about them, but realized I wanted to know more than I could learn about their lives within a few pages. I found myself creating a past for them, going back in time before their birth to discover what had brought them to such a dark place. Their great-grandmother, Byrdie, was the easiest character to write. She hasn't changed much since the first draft of Bloodroot, probably because I've been surrounded and raised by women like her, my mom and my aunts and the ladies I went to church with. I was interested in exploring, through Byrdie, the stories I'd heard from them about life in Appalachia during the Depression. John Odom was hardest to write. It was difficult to show all his dimensions and his conflicting emotions--to portray him not just as a villain but also as a tortured soul. I struggled to make it believable that, at least in his own mind, it was possible for John to love Myra and at the same time, to hurt her. With Ford, I wanted Johnny to have the father figure he was searching for, but the first character I created to fit that role became uninspiring to me. I knew he wasn't working, so I scrapped what I had written and began to imagine a character I wouldn't grow tired of, one who would intrigue Johnny and me both enough to follow him a long way. The intriguing figure I ended up with was Ford Hendrix.
Question: Bloodroot takes place across four generations, from the Great Depression to the present-day. At times there's a sociological aspect to your depiction of life in Appalachia--the poverty some families struggle with for years, the development of the land. But in some ways the story you've told seems out of time--we don't see politics or computers, for instance. Did you consciously weave social issues into the novel? How isolated is this area of the country, and how has that changed over time? To your mind, what role does history and the passage of time play in this family story?
Amy Greene: I didn't think about "sociology," especially not at first. I concentrated primarily on storytelling, and building the lives of the characters. For the most part, I kept the wider world out of the picture, partly to preserve the dreamlike quality I wanted to achieve with the writing, and also to portray the sense of isolation that comes with living in Appalachia. Often the passage of time and what's going on outside the mountains has little impact on life here. People still grow and can their own food, get their water from wells and springs, use wood and coal for heat. There's a feeling of separateness from the rest of the country. But as I wrote deeper into the characters, the outside world began seeping into their stories with the progression of time. In successive drafts I was able to add another layer to Bloodroot by expanding those moments already present in the narrative that addressed social issues, such as the poverty that persists in parts of Appalachia. Although the quality of life has improved here over the last few decades, there are still areas where lack of education, job training, and access to public services makes life difficult. I also thought about the possibility of hopelessness as a kind of legacy, generation after generation accepting destitution as their lot in life because it's all they've ever known. But while history and the passage of time do play important roles in this story, the familial bond of the characters mattered more to me. It transcends the changing world around them--the landscape changes, their circumstances change, people move in and out of their lives. But their blood ties are permanent.
Question: Magic and mysticism run throughout the book--there are "granny women" who are like witches; spells and potions, including a visceral scene where a young woman swallows a chicken heart to make a man fall in love with her; and a special connection with animals, called "the touch," that is passed down in the family. How did these supernatural elements make their way into a story that often feels very true-to-life? Growing up, had you heard any similar legends? Does this type of folk magic--healing or curses or anything else--still hold weight for people?
Amy Greene: I've always seen Appalachia as a magical place. I grew up hearing stories of haints and fortunetellers and curses. One of my favorite scenes in Bloodroot to write, where Clifford blows healing wind down Byrdie's throat, is based on a story my dad tells of his mother taking his baby sister to a neighbor man who cured her thrush the same way. My mom had an aunt who took off her warts by rubbing a stone in a circle around each one and then throwing the stones away. This kind of folk magic still holds weight here because, for whatever reason, people see tangible results from the practice of it. The thrush clears up, the warts fall off, and so they keep believing.

Yeah your Monsoon season is a rough time to be there, but normally your humidity is in the 6% region, and that is very dangerous as you can severely dehydrate and never realize it until it is too late. Basically you sweat, keep cool, and never look or feel damp.
Been in the AZ desert multiple times in 111 degree heat and it felt like MI in the mid 80's.... in any event keep hydrated and be safe!!!

Here in Las Vegas we are a little better, last i looked we were about 106. Its really not that bad until it gets to 115, after that its just brutal. Our AC runs constantly which always hurts when the the electric bill comes in.
This has really been a weird weather year. Normally in San Diego, we expect chronic marine layer overcast in May and June. So far in July, I haven't seen the sun unless I go inland. Hardly any shadows, no need for sunscreen, not even anything more than a slight breeze. It's been between 63 and 67 for the last couple of weeks. At night, maybe 4 degrees less. For lack of a better word, this is truly boring weather. Man I hate San Diego. (Yes, that was sarcasm.) Some things do suck here, just not the weather.

In less than ten days Google Reader gets the axe and joins a growing graveyard of Google services that deserved to go. For many the Google Reader closure sparked outrage, shock, and confusion. But I'm here to tell you change is good. Google is arguably the most successful Internet company today. It didn't get to where it is without taking risks and knowing when to fish or cut bait.
It's true, Google Reader was a reliable basic RSS (really simple syndication) reader loved by millions. But as an avalanche of articles have aptly pointed out since Google announced its demise, Reader had lots of competition. The Internet is bursting with " Google Reader Alternative" stories making the resounding point: Google Reader no longer fulfills an unanswered need.
Let's also point out here usage of Reader has been steadily dropping replaced by alternative content discovery methods such as Twitter and Facebook feeds. Its departure - while not putting a dent in reducing the amount of Google services bloat - is a necessary part of evolving as a company.
Here is how Google put it: "To make the most of these opportunities, we need to focus—otherwise we spread ourselves too thin and lack impact."
On July 1 Reader joins a list of 70 services (or Google product features) that have bit the dust since 2011. The graveyard of Google services are a mix of obsolete services, ones that have evolved and merged into another product, and some that were just big flops.
Google's greatness didn't come from refusing to kill Wave, Google Health, or the photo editing service Picnik (all dead). It comes from taking risks, sometimes falling flat on its face, and knowing when to throw in the towel and move on.
Perhaps Google's greatness can be measured by its failures as well as its successes. That's something its competitors could learn something from.
Remember Yahoo's service Pipes, a service that allowed you to create RSS mashups combining many feeds into one? It's actually still around. The Yahoo service doesn't even get routine updates - the last post to the Yahoo Pipes Blog is from 2012 and an demo showcasing how the service works is broken.
Bing also has a bunch of dead-weight services. While I have never used Microsoft's Bing Desktop the site Digital Trends makes a convincing argument it's time for the service to go. In a post "Bing Desktop for Windows: So Lame It's Practically Spamware " Jeffrey Van Camp argues:
"The update.. adds a giant Bing Search box to the middle of your desktop. The only feature of the box is to type search queries, which brings up the Bing Web site in a browser window (where it belongs). That's it. A big ugly search box that you can't move around (you can only set it to the middle of the screen or top). Was using Bing that hard before?"
Without Google's willingness to take risks or knowing when to quit the company might not be what it is today.

Jergens, ASG and SGS Celebrate the New Shanghai Commercial Facility
The grand opening of the newly-built facility represents a significant commitment to the Chinese industrial market.
A special ribbon cutting ceremony and customer open house was held to celebrate the grand opening of the new Jergens Shanghai Commercial Company Ltd. (Shanghai, China). This facility is located in a new economic development technology park in the Jinqiao District in PuDong. The 500 sq m facility contains offices, warehousing and a technical center featuring permanent product displays.
The celebration featured the official ribbon cutting ceremony and open house during the afternoon followed by an evening reception held at the Marriott PuDong East hotel. In all, over 70 guests representing eight countries joined Jergens and SGS Tool Company in celebration of what is being hailed as a "new beginning" in the history of Jergens Shanghai .
In attendance was special guest Mr. Harry Xiao, the general manager from The Association for Manufacturing Technology (AMT), Shanghai Technology and Service Center (STC). It was through Mr. Xiao's AMT organization that Jergens got started in the Chinese market by hiring their first employee in China through the AMT proxy hire program. Mr. Xiao addressed the crowd and spoke about the success he has seen Jergens experience. He watched the company grow through the years, "growing up" from a one-person to one-desk business into the newly opened Jergens Shanghai location.
It's been eight years since Jergens Shanghai was founded to support the workholding, lifting and specialty fasteners industrial market in China. ASG began promoting its assembly tools as part of the Jergens family of businesses, and together both divisions have experienced exponential market growth.
According to president of Jergens Inc.(Cleveland, OH), Jack Schron, Jr., said, "The opening of this facility represents a new beginning in the history of Jergens Shanghai. Our commitment to the Chinese market is evidenced by the fact that we have more than tripled the size of our facility, and are hiring additional staff to handle growing customer requirements throughout the region. This new beginning is only possible through the continued trust and loyalty that our Chinese customers place in the Jergens family of businesses."
Bryon Shafer is the general manager of the ASG Division and Jergens Shanghai facility. While based in the U.S. headquarters located in Cleveland, OH, he spends much of the year working with customers and staff in China. He noted, "We are excited to be the first tenant in a brand new, state-of-the-art building in the new Shanghai Jinqiao District economic development zone. The facility itself allows our group a significant opportunity for continued, stable growth and business development while the convenient location ensures that our customers have easy access to us. We are looking forward to embarking on this new beginning in support of our Chinese customers."
Additionally, Shafer commented, "The new, expanded Jergens facility in Shanghai allows us to attract additional U.S.-based small manufacturing partners and provides them with a low-cost investment for entry into the Chinese market from our wholly-owned subsidiary platform."
SGS Tool Company joins Jergens divisions in the Chinese market. Since 2009, SGS Tool Company has also been working with the Jergens divisions in supporting the Chinese industrial market as a partner within the facility. SGS Tool is a global provider of solid carbide cutting tools for the aerospace, metalworking and automotive industries with manufacturing facilities located in the U.S. and United Kingdom and sales representatives around the globe.
The president, Tom Haag, said, "We are pleased to continue to partner with Jergens in serving the Chinese industrial market and are looking forward to continuing our long-term commitment to our customers as well as finding additional opportunities to serve companies in the region."

Tamera Mowry-Housley is looking absolutely amazing after losing her post-baby weight and the actress couldn't be more proud of herself. The Real co-host recently showed off her hard work via a photo collage on Instagram that showed off adorable one-year-old Aden and her flat tummy.
"Mommy did it," she wrote on the photo's caption. "Lost all my baby weight. Did it with hard work, proportion control, (hint: I even ate what I wanted at times) and with amazing trainers @michaelmyersfit and @msjeanettejenkins! No pills, no surgery, no starvation, just hard work. Thank you for pushing me even when I did not want to work out! But most importantly to love me where I was and every step along the way."
It's astounding how Mowry-Housley can handle a new hosting gig, being such an attentive mom to her baby (and loving every moment of motherhood so much she's ready for baby number two), and still find time to work out. Celeb trainer Jeanette Jenkins has now added a new name to her impressive roster and both have made us feel like complete slackers!

North Shore won the Class C title, Garden City won the Class B championship and Farmingdale took home the Nassau County Class A championship.
It would take a botched game of "keep away," two miraculous saves by Alexis Greene and a goal in double overtime from the most unlikely of heroes, to earn the No. 2-ranked North Shore Lady Vikings (14-3) a come-from-behind 14-13 victory over No. 1 Cold Spring Harbor (14-3) for the Nassau Class C title on May 30 at Adelphi University.
With Cold Spring Harbor leading 13-11 with less than two minutes remaining, it turned to clock-grinding stall tactics to try to seal the win. The Seahawks held the ball on the wing, content to let the seconds tick away and literally make no effort to extend their lead to three.
That approach worked for a short while, as it got the clock down to the one-minute mark, but an ill-advised pass that landed out of bounds gave North Shore possession back. Lady Vikings standout Tess Korten (two goals and one assist) was able to capitalize after a crisp pass from Carly Comitino, cutting the lead to 13-12 with 55.2 seconds remaining.
North Shore won the following draw, and Micaela Dussel found the back of the net to tie the score at 13 apiece with 40.4 seconds left. Cold Spring Harbor had a chance to win it when Jillian Lee took a free position shot with five seconds to go, but North Shore goalkeeper Alexis Greene (11 saves) stepped up with the biggest save of her career to send the game to overtime.
Cold Spring Harbor, which had ball possession for the entire first overtime period, managed to get just one shot off at the buzzer, and Greene stymied the attack once more. "Our goalie is awesome," said North Shore's USC-bound midfielder Amanda Johansen, who scored a team-high seven goals and added two assists. "She steps up at the best moments. She has improved so much this year and I'm so proud of her."
Johansen added that she knew it was just a matter of time before her team would mount a comeback from the six-goal deficit it faced in the first half. "We know the potential everyone has on this team, and we know we can get those goals back in a hurry when we leave it all out on the field," she said. "We knew it was going to be close. We got each other pumped up and kept working."
Heading into double overtime with the game tied at 13 apiece, not many would have expected Meaghan Brennan to be the one to propel North Shore to its second straight Nassau Class C title.
Brennan, who ranked behind four other Lady Vikings in goals during the regular season and hadn't tallied a single point in the playoffs, scored the game-winner for North Shore with 1:24 remaining in the second overtime period.
The last five meetings between Cold Spring Harbor and North Shore were decided by a goal.
Garden City's rollercoaster season is back on the upswing.
The Lady Trojans (14-5) bounced back from a midseason skid of five losses in eight, including a devastating defeat to Manhasset in their regular season finale and a painful loss to Maryland powerhouse McDonough that ended its 55-game win streak, to earn victories in four straight playoff contests.
Garden City senior midfielder Catherine Dickinson, a University of Pennsylvania commit, tallied a team-high six goals, and Princeton-bound senior Alex Bruno chipped in with five, as the top-seeded Lady Trojans slipped past No. 3 Wantagh, 14-12, on May 30 at Adelphi, to notch the school's eighth straight Nassau Class B title.
Bruno's free position goal with 10:14 remaining gave Garden City a 12-11 advantage, a lead it would not relinquish.
Wantagh's senior midfielder Kaleigh Craig, a Northwestern University commit, scored a team-high seven, but was held scoreless in the final 11 minutes of regulation due to key adjustments from Garden City's defense.
Craig, along with Wantagh's Georgetown-bound attacker Colleen Lovett (three goals), was double-teamed in the waning minutes of regulation.
Garden City will face the winner of the tilt between Eastport-South Manor and Hauppauge in the Long Island Championship on June 3 at Dowling.
Amanda Turturro got energized, got aggressive and got Farmingdale (17-1) its seventh straight Nassau Class A title.
Turturro, a junior midfielder who recently gave her commitment to play women's lacrosse at Rutgers upon completion of her high school graduation, scored a team-high six goals and added one assist, to lead the top-seeded Lady Dalers past No. 2 Massapequa, 15-7, on May 30 at Adelphi, completing Farmingdale's perfect playoff run.
Farmingdale took command early, opening an 8-1 lead with nine minutes to go in the first half, and coasting the rest of the way. Farmingdale's Kim Kolodny, also a Rutgers commit, tallied four goals, and Cassie Perrettine chipped in with two, as the Lady Dalers opened a 14-5 advantage by the 40th minute.
Rory Sadoff (three goals and one assist) was one of the few bright spots for Massapequa, which wrapped up the season with a 15-3 overall record.
Farmingdale will play the winner of Ward Melville vs. Bay Shore in the Long Island girls' lacrosse championship on June 3 at 5 p.m. at Dowling Sports Complex.

Bearcats Fall In Crosstown Classic
Dec. 14, 2013
CINCINNATI -The University of Cincinnati men's basketball team could not overcome a slow offensive start and dropped the annual Skyline Chili Crosstown Classic to Xavier, 64-47, at U.S. Bank Arena on Saturday night. The loss dropped the Bearcats to 7-2 while the Musketeers improved to 8-3.
Sean Kilpatrick (Yonkers, N.Y./White Plains/Notre Dame Prep) led the UC effort with 17 points. Shaquille Thomas (Patterson, N.J./NIA Prep) contributed 13 points. Troy Caupain (Midlothian, Va./Cosby) and Kevin Johnson (Cincinnati, Ohio/Summit Country Day) each posted five points for the Bearcats.
Xavier was led by 17 points from Justin Martin, who also grabbed five rebounds. James Farr scored 10 points and pulled down six rebounds. Semaj Christon and Brandon Randolph each scored eight points, while Matt Stainbrook had seven points and 11 rebounds.
The Bearcats got off to a slow start offensively, hitting just three of their first 10 shots. Xavier took advantage, using a 17-4 run to take a 33-14 lead with just over four minutes remaining, including a 9-0 run over just 63 seconds.
UC was able to start closing the gap late in the first half, with a Kilpatrick three cutting it to 41-25 at the break. Cincinnati hit three of its last four shots in the period. In the opening half, Xavier shot 65-percent (13-20) from the field and 67-percent (6-9) from three. The Bearcats forced 10 Musketeer turnovers to stay within striking distance despite shooting just 32-percent (8-25).
Cincinnati began to claw its way back at the start of the second half. Just over five minutes in to the half, a pair of Kilpatrick free throws cut the deficit to 12, 48-36, and forced a Musketeer timeout. Another pair of Kilpatrick foul shots cut it to 48-38 with 13:24 to play, but that would be the closest the Bearcats could get.
Xavier took the momentum back by holding UC off the scoreboard for the next 2:56 while going on a 9-0 run to push the lead back to 19, 57-38, with 9:45 to play. The Bearcats would go over five minutes without a point before a three from Caupain ended the drought with 6:35 to play and Xavier leading 59-41.
The Musketeers then held on for the 64-47 victory. Xavier outshot UC, 56-percent to 33-percent, while hitting 11-of-16 from three-point range. The Musketeers also won the battle on the glass by a 33-20 margin.
The loss cuts UC's lead in the series, which has been continuous since 1945, to 49-32. It also marks the Bearcats first loss at U.S. Bank Arena in downtown Cincinnati since Jan. 16, 1997. UC had won 18 consecutive games at U.S. Bank.
Next up for UC is a trip to Madison Square Garden to face former conference foe Pittsburgh in the Jimmy V Classic. Tipoff is set for 7:00 p.m. in the world's most famous arena and the game can be seen on ESPN.

|Found this headband in my daughter's room and I do
not know where she bought it!!
The magazine is called the blogosphere! There I discover so many different voices and see inspiration from around the world. If I want to experience Spain, Paris, or Montreal, I have friends who will take me there. Like most successful magazines, I can spend time with clothes, interior design, cooking, travel or even crafts. How much I want from it is endless and completely up to me and the time I choose to give.

This is how I believe all bloggers should look at what we do….as employees of one big publication. Recently, I have read several emails and blogs voicing frustration with other bloggers for one reason or another. I realize girls will be girls and there will be a little hair pulling, but, really, why are bloggers competitive with one another? We each have an individual voice and mission that we can bring to the entire publication. The more of us that are successful, the more readers we will attract to what we are doing. More blog readers, even on another site, can only benefit the whole.

Who cares if one has more followers…or one does not take comments…or one thinks she is better than others? The one who thinks they are better will most likely disappear soon…pride cometh before the fall.
But, if we support one another and work together, then our whole "publication" will be successful and fly off the stands! I am choosing to focus on what I do…who I desire to reach…and making this blog the best it can be. I choose to support others who do the same, because we can sharpen and build up one another. That can only be a good thing!
With this in mind, I would like to thank Collette of Statements in Fashion for her recent help with my blog and to thank Reva of Revas Rags 2 Roses for sending me two beautiful scarves she no longer wanted. That's the real blogger support system I have come to know and love!

Grout between bamboo flooring and tile/marble
I installed a floating bamboo floor recently, and I am happy with it. However, there is a 1/4" gap between the kitchen tiles and the wood floor, and also a 1/4" between a marble threshold in the bathroom (see pictures). I mixed up some grout and put it in the gaps. The grout dried and later started to crack and break apart. What can I put in the gap that will work better? Thank you
Kitchen area
Bathroom area
Hi Brit,
As you might guess, floating wood floors, even if it's nailed down is moving all the time. Grout is not the proper thing to use in those gaps. Use caulking to match the grout, every grout maker has it. I'm guessing you used sanded grout, so get sanded caulk.
I would use 100% silicone caulking. It is extremely flexible. TEC products has silicone in quite a few colors. If it is not 100% silicone it will eventually crack and break. Clean all surfaces good with denatured alcohol before caulking.

This is especially important to keep handy this time of the year as people decorate the holidays. Poinsettias are not harmful as most would believe but Mistletoe is very toxic as a friend of mine found out recently! Make sure you know what is near and available your pets this howliday season!
A wonderful service! :)

6 of the best road trips in the UK
There is something about a road trip that creates an endless state of heightened excitement. It comes with a heart-in-mouth, funfair-like thrill. And no matter …
To celebrate the birthday of the country's best-known poet, Rabbie Burns (1759–96), Scots all over the world gather together for a Burns Supper on January 25. Strictly speaking, a piper should greet the guests until everyone is seated ready to hear the first bit of Burns' poetry, The Selkirk Grace:
Some hae meat and canna eat,
and some wad eat that want it,
but we hae meat and we can eat,
and sae the Lord be thankit.
At this point the star attraction of the evening, the haggis, is piped in on a silver platter, after which someone reads out Burns's Ode to a Haggis, beginning with the immortal line, "Fair fa' your honest, sonsie face/Great chieftain o' the pudding-race!". During the recitation, the reader raises a knife ("His knife see Rustic-labour dight"), pierces the haggis, allowing the tasty gore to spill out ("trenching its gushing entrails"), and then toasts the haggis with the final line ("Gie her a Haggis!"). After everyone has tucked into their haggis, tatties and neaps, someone gives a paean to the life of Burns along with more of his poetry. A male guest then has to give a speech in which women are praised (often ironically) through selective quotations from Burns, ending in a Toast to the Lassies. This is followed by a (usually scathing) reply from one of the Lassies, again through judicious use of Burns's quotes. Finally, there's a stirring rendition of Burns's poem, Auld Lang Syne, to the familiar tune.

Academy at the Lakes' turnaround season ended Saturday night 78-27 at Orlando Christian Prep in a Class 2A region final loss to a
Warriors program that's won three state titles in the past four seasons. Orlando Christian advances to play FAMU High in Tuesday's state semifinal.
"They were outstanding," AATL coach Tom Haslam said of Orlando Christian. "They rank up with any team in the state. Period. Any class."
The Warriors (25-5) pressured AATL (17-10) early and often, converting turnovers into easy fastbreaks. The Wildcats made matters worse, missing nine of their first 10 shots and struggling to defend a deep lineup.
"They've got everything," Haslam said. "Their guards can go inside. Their big men can go outside and shoot. You have to guard everybody. … We've never seen anything like that before."
Freshman Ethan Haslam led a balanced AATL scoring effort with six points. Jarrett Harvey and Mikey Mauger scored five points each.
Haslam said his team was disappointed about the loss but proud of its turnaround season. The Wildcats won only 11 games the past two years combined before breaking through this winter.
The coach said he never would have expected at the start of the season that his team would reach the elite eight.
"I'm sitting here on the bus, and I'm looking at the regional runnerup trophy," Haslam said. "There aren't many teams in our area who are going to come home with one of those. I'm extremely proud of these guys."
AATL loses only two seniors, so Haslam said the deepest run in program history will be a building block for the Wildcats' future.
"It hurts a little bit right now, but it's going to help us," Haslam said. "We see how good we need to be."

It got a little confusing trying to figure out exactly who was working for whom and when, but the good guys win...I think. Spy drama; no supernatural elements.
One of the few CBSRMT that seems to have too much packed into 50 minutes. Includes plenty of fake French and Russian accents. Overall a good story though.
This was Boris and Natasha stuff about an out-of-work reporter who is randomly assaulted by thugs, saved by a passing stranger, and drawn into his espionage world. He winds up in France chasing around a woman double-agent, and getting involved in a murder and plot to steal government secrets. I guess I stayed with it because, being a reporter, I was interested in following the lead character, who was a cross between Kolchak and Oscar Madison. Didn't quite follow everything, but it was amusing...
This episode was, for lack of better words, weak. Too much information in the allotted time. And the story was unbeleivable. It did make me reflect on the cold war; when Russia was the United States' mortal enemy.
Davy Joe
Intriguing cloak-and-dagger episode with double agents looking for what is initially supposed to be a treasure map to buried jewels stolen by the Nazis, which turns out to be plans for an anti-missile device. It mostly takes place in Paris and contains lots of atmosphere, including French cafes, gendarmes, hypodermic needles filled with sodium pentothal, and a Russian agent named Igor.
This program is a cold war spy thriller with multiple twists and turns. It's difficult to distinguish the good guys from the bad guys. The plot centers on a newspaper executive who is an unwitting pawn in a deadly game. The show I have is complete with a news brief that explains that teachers in Kansas are striking because they object to a 10% pay increase!!! It turns out later in the brief that inflation is running at more than 10% per year!
Annoying, predictable spy story. If somebody dies-so what? An unbelievable story that has no fun.
An engrosing spy mystery full of international intrigue, agents and double agents. A reporter is fired from his job and ends up deep in an international jewel scam. A great episode with lots of twists and turns and unpredictable characters.
An out of work newspaper reporter is framed for murder in France by a double agent spy.
Maria Victoria T.
Linear, slow to develop spy story.
I agree that there was a lot of story crammed into to little time. I also liked the news story about inflation over 10% as it likely is now as well, just that the government (whoever happens to be in charge) likes to remove certain things from the index to keep the number lower. On that note it would be interesting to see what the real number is and has been over the past several decades.
I used to listen to these back in 1974 and later. Brings back good memories. Now I feel old.
Went great on the 4th of July right before a tea break with a little kush
Scooter D and mCs
True radio theater performances in this episode. American voice actors gave convincing French pronunciation in the dialogue between characters. 2 thumbs and 2 big toes up.
Don L Wilkey
I generally do not like the commercials when they are included in the episodes, but I love the opening news clips when they are included. This episode is a perfect example. At the 4:03 mark the newscaster says the name Mark Felt of the FBI. At the time in 1974 I probably wouldn't have noted that, seeing that I was 7 yrs. old. However, in 2005, Mr. Felt revealed himself to be none other than....."Deep Throat" of Woodward/Bernstein Watergate fame.

Phoenix, 2006
Whiskey Creek Press
Sievert Olafson wants to give up a sure thing: farming the rich soil of Minnesota to go to college. His father forbids it, his brothers ridicule him, and his sweetheart refuses to join him. So what does a seventeen-year-old first generation American do? Sievert leaves home for the goldfields of the Arizona Territory. What he finds is a world of contrasts; a mentor who is his father's diametric opposite, a young woman who takes him to new emotional heights, and depths, a "do it to them before they do it to you" society that is anything but a sure thing. His success is stolen, his honesty betrayed, and with the pull of a trigger, his views of right and wrong are altered forever. But through his wild ride of victories and defeats, a dormant bulb flowers. It guides him to happiness, and a second chance at his dream.
Something Bad, October 2007
Medallion Press
Gabe Petersen can't cross the borders of his rural Tri-county area--even the thought triggers the erratic cardiac rhythm and breathing difficulty of a panic attack. And he doesn't know why. His memories stop at twelve years of age, his early years nonexistent.
But when a strange little man arrives in town, Gabe feels an Unsettling sense of familiarity. Then families begin to die, all because of bizarre natural disasters, and the events trigger glimmers of memory for Gabe. Memories pointing to Thibideaux, the strange little man.
Returning memories open a door on rusty hinges in Gabe's mind. Behind the door is a catatonic Catholic priest who fled the area years ago after he was found sitting on the church altar surrounded by the slaughtered remains of several animals. And Gabe now remembers . . . he was there. Along with Thibideaux.
The past explodes, revealing Gabe's deepest fears. This time his family is Thibideaux's prize. And Gabe's only weapon to defend them is him mind. . . .
Agnes Hahn, August 2008
Medallion Press
At the age of four Agnes Hahn went to live with her great aunts Gert and Ella. Now Gert is deceased and Ella is in a care home in the advanced stages of Alzheimer's. Her life is mundane, her work at the animal shelter routine. And then she is arrested for a string of unimaginably heinous murders.
Reporter Jason Powers is covering the murders, but he has more than newspaper copy in mind; this case has bestseller potential. He soon uncovers a tangle of Hahn family secrets and one both shocks and intrigues him--Agnes has a twin.
Just when Powers is breaking through Ella's dementia to put together the puzzle behind the carnage, Ella is murdered by another of the family secrets, Gert and Ella's brother Eddie.
Then Eddie is murdered with clear fingerprint evidence implicating Agnes. When Powers unearths the final family secret he also answers a nagging question: Why did the aunts take only Agnes thirty years ago?
Imola, September 2009
Medallion Press
Agnes Hahn is back, escaped from Imola with nothing but a white lab coat and security badges. Trouble is her twin sister, Lilin, is with her and their path is likely to be littered by a trail of murdered men. Can Agnes defeat Lilin once again to stop the killing?

EXCLUSIVE: MTV and the network's SVP scripted programming Justin Levy have parted ways. The decision was mutual and not unexpected given all the changes at MTV over the past few years. Levy joined the network in 2008. Two years later, David Janollari came over as head of scripted. When Janollari was elevated two years later, Levy and Clay Spencer, who had been brought in by Janollari, were made co-heads of scripted and upped to SVP in August 2012. Three months later, Susanne Daniels replaced Janollari and Spencer exited. Levy flew solo on the scripted side for a couple of months until Daniels brought in Mina Lefevre as SVP and head of scripted programming. During his tenure at MTV, Levy has been closely involved in the network's most successful scripted franchises. He championed MTV's breakout comedy Awkward and also played an integral part in the development and production of the other successful MTV series, Teen Wolf. Levy comes from a producing background, having joined MTV from Peter Berg's company Film 44, where he oversaw development and produced Friday Night Lights, among other series.
MTV's SVP Scripted Justin Levy Departs
17 Comments
Huge loss for that place. Justin had a fantastic eye for content and was personally responsible for their only successful scripted shows. Hope you land somewhere that appreciates you, Justin.
Justin… you have been given a mitzvah. that network has officially gone bat crazy with abc family instincts. you are a far better executive than what they've become and i know there's a place for you at fox. i can just feel it!
You'll be missed, Justin! Thanks for helping our little Teen Wolf show roar its way into a hit!
You are better off moving along J. You developed really special shows there and we all know that the place is starting to sound batshit crazy over there so excited to see where you land next.
Justin is the best boss and mentor I could have asked for, can't wait to see what amazing shows he champions next.
brown nose
Justin was a great boss and made me a better executive every day. It was a privilege working with him. Miss your face already. (and still in your debt)!
MTV used to be the channel your cooler older brother or sister watched with programs aimed at 18yr olds. Now its the channel your little sister watches. Needs to be less of an ABC Family after run.
Bring back "Road Rules". Look up Road Rules South Pacific episode 1 on YouTube and tell me its not EXACTLY the type of show this channel needs. Ignore season 14.
And put on music-related programming. Not music videos. But inside access to the famous. Like Diary. Put on shows like Blame Game. And if its reality, go old school and make it true documentary. Watch Osbournes and Newlyweds and watch how little setup there is, how little interviews there are that aren't on-the-fly. Be edgy. Be MTV. NOT pregnant teens. Even bring back Spring Break. Be "college" not "junior high", Make shows guys in college and high school would watch, not shows that ONLY their little sis would.
Justin is one of the best execs in scripted TV – he is responsible for turning MTV from a joke in scripted to a genuine destination for real talent, not just a last stop on the pitch trail. I look forward to seeing him excel again in whatever he chooses to do next.
MTV has sucked for years… #realtalk
Justin is an incredibly talented exec and so much fun to work with. He will be greatly missed.
Teen wolfs a hit? That's laughable.
Does anyone thing right about now it MIGHT be WISE for MTV to get back to being MTV?? Sure music tastes are even more split focused then before with vasts amount of bands out there and hardly any that can really break through the way they used to but I still believe MUSIC which only one other channel is really doing MIGHT be a proper focus for the channel. Justin's a great executive anyone would be lucky to have him.
Justin is an incredible mentor and friend. Truly one of the best. Can't wait to see what awesome stuff he does at his next venture!
its swell how many of this guy's friends posted to flatter him, but the shows he put on mtv have been under-watched and uninteresting. mtv was smart to move on.
Agreed with previous posters who said that Justin is lucky to go (it's getting less and less interesting over there) and that they're going to miss him. Am excited to see what he does next, the rare executive with taste and real production chops.
Justin is a game player. Since being Kevin Reilly's assistant, he has failed upwards. Nice smile though, but that doesn't build trust. Namaste dude!

Things I'm loving right now!
I just ordered this bathing suit in the tomato color! There are only a few sizes left if you like it!
I love this little gadget! I always want to make my own dressing, but I love that you can and use a spray bottle.
Lucy Hale posted her new polish on her instagram, and I want this on my toes!
This is one of my go-to soups, and we made it this week! I LOVE taco soup! Click here for the recipe (btw-I used ground turkey)
I want one of these watches, but I don't know which one I like more! I obviously can't afford all of them:(
