Rovers clinch final date
Blackburn 4-2 Sheffield Wednesday
E-mail your reaction to Football Talk
Sheffield Wednesday's spirited Worthington Cup run came to an end at Ewood Park as Blackburn clinched their first major cup final appearance since 1960.
Goals from Matt Jansen, Damien Duff, Andy Cole and Craig Hignett sealed Rovers' passage through to a final against either Chelsea or Tottenham at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium on 24 February.
With a 2-1 advantage from the first leg at Hillsborough, two goals in three minutes before half-time effectively killed off Wednesday's resistance.
Jansen stabbed home the first from a Hignett corner after 34 minutes, before Duff beat Wednesday debutant keeper Paul Heald with an angled drive to make it 4-1 on aggregate.
Blackburn were reduced to ten men early in the second half when captain Garry Flitcroft was sent off for a two-footed challenge on Trond Egil Soltvedt. The resulting scrap also saw Andy Cole and Ashley Westwood booked.
And Wednesday were given hope when Nissa Johansson was adjudged to have handled and Efan Ekoku dispatched the penalty to make it 2-1, 4-2 on aggregate.
But Cole, after twice wasting good chances in the second half, put the issue beyond doubt when he fired home after playing a neat one-two with Duff nine minutes from time.
Soltvedt headed home a second for Wednesday after 85 minutes, but Hignett sealed a 6-3 aggregate win two minutes from time with Rovers' fourth, his fifth in six matches.
With both his two senior goalkeepers injured, Wednesday manager Terry Yorath was forced to hand an instant debut to Heald, only signed on loan from Wimbledon earlier in the day.
Heald, third choice at the Dons, had not featured in a senior game since September, but was alert early on to twice deny the dangerous Jansen.
Wednesday's best hope of denting the home side's confidence lay with Gerald Sibon, who screwed his first effort wide after Martin Taylor had carelessly given the ball away.
But the Dutchman brought a brilliant save from Brad Friedel after 26 minutes, the American keeper beating away a fiercely struck 20-yard drive.
Jansen opened the scoring after 34 minutes when he reacted quickest to stab the ball into the roof of the net after Taylor's prodded effort from a corner had come back off a post.
Jansen should have added a second a minute later when he shot wide when clean through, and Hignett headed narrowly over before Blackburn doubled their lead in the 37th minute.
Turkish midfielder Tugay held the ball up intelligently before playing in Duff, whose angled drive beat Heald into the far corner.
Blackburn: Friedel, Curtis, Taylor, Johansson, Bjornebye,
Flitcroft, Tugay, Hignett, Duff, Jansen (Mahon 61), Cole.
Sheff Wed: Heald, Haslam, Bromby, Westwood,
Geary (O'Donnell 71), Hamshaw (Bonvin 45), Soltvedt, McLaren,
Quinn, Sibon, Ekoku.
Agg: (6-3)

Eleven-year old Fatima lives with her family in Khamsadageig IDP camp in Darfur. It is home to 19,000 people. Established in 2005, it is one of the oldest camps in Darfur. Caritas supports programmes that provide water, sanitation facilities and hygiene promotion campaigns in the camp.
As the eldest of five siblings, she must help her mother fetch the family's water every day. Together they collect at least 80 litres of water for cooking, washing and other daily needs.
As in many conflicts, the Darfur crisis has affected children in such a profound way. Harrowing stories of loss, deprivation and abuse are common, especially among women and girls.
Caritas is working towards reducing the burden children have to face as a result of the humanitarian crisis.
One of the success stories is the water, sanitation and hygiene promotion initiative. Caritas partners in Darfur, Norwegian Church Aid (NCA), provide water to over 130,000 people made homeless by the fighting and to host communities affected by the conflict in camps of Zalingie and surrounding villages in West Darfur.
Caritas partners work in Khamsadageig IDPs camp, where Fatima lives. It is home to 19,000 people. Established in 2005, it is one of the oldest camps in Darfur. Caritas supports programmes that provide water, sanitation facilities and hygiene promotion campaigns in the camp.
This project has reduced the daily weight children suffer when collecting water for household use and in turn has many direct and indirect benefits.
Fatima says it is much easier now that the water is closer to her 'home' in the camp. 'I have many friends and we have time to meet and play because it is easier for us to collect the water before going to school or play, she said.
She is thankful that water and sanitary facilities were provided at her school. Access to these facilities has made it easier for her to attend school. Caritas partners provide safe running water at the school, separate latrines for boys and girls, hand washing facilities and cleaning tools
Sub-Saharan Africa faces some of the worst deficits – only 56 percent of people in the region have access to clean water and only 37 percent have access to sanitation facilities 1. In Sudan, like in many other cultures, women and girls are primarily responsible for the use and management of water resources, sanitation and health at the household level 2.
Fatima scarcely remembers much about her village but her mother tells her that getting water in the village was more difficult as they had to walk for at least an hour to get access to clean water.

I went to see my surgeon yesterday following 2 weeks of severe pain and lumps in my breasts. He said he doesnt know why there is so much pain. He told me the lumps were rippling in the implants and theres nothing I can do about it so I am gutted.
I had to have the implant above the muscle which is a shame. I can feel the wrinkled up implants in my boob like crushed paper,with the slightest touch and I think it is becoming more visible. I am gonna give it a month and if things are still bad then I will look at getting them removed.
PLEASE can anyone advise me as my surgeon just seemed to want to turf me out of the room. I am very unhappy and want to get this resolved.
After doing a fair bit of research I think my surgeon (given that I am slender and he could see I had little breast tissue beforehand) could have advised me to have smooth surfaced silicone implant instead which has less chance of rippling. My implants are crinkling in and out all the time and it is causing soooo much pain and the pain doesnt go.
I am very upset - can anyone advise me - shall I get a different surgeon to advise me. Surely it cant be permanent/uncorrectional and leaving me with the only option of Explanting :(

(1) Log into your AdWords account
(2) Click on Tools and Analysis and select 'Keyword Planner' from the drop-down
(3) Select 'Search for keyword and ad group ideas'
(4) Enter keyword candidates under 'Your product or service'. You can enter multiple keywords, one per line. At this stage, just use common sense and conjecture to come up with a few 'seed' keywords that represent the content of a particular web page or blog post. Try and get into the shoes (minds?) of your potential audience and think from their perspective. But at the same time your keyword candidates should be broad enough to let the keyword tool generate promising keyword ideas. For example, you could start with a broad keyword such as "Lebanese Restaurant Englewood" and the keyword ideas in the next step might include a more specific terms such as "Lebanese Restaurant Englewood NJ", "Best Lebanese Food in Englewood" etc. which you could then shortlist (if the search volume is high enough).
(5) You can leave 'Your landing page' and 'Your product category' fields blank
(6) Under 'Targeting' click on the pencil icon to change settings.
Tip: If you click on the pencil icon for the country tab and then select 'remove', you can target all locations. However, it's better to focus on a single country instead of all locations, because it's unlikely that you will be able to rank for a keyword on the search result pages for all countries. Remember, the results that show up for a particular keyword in one country are likely to be different from the results for the same keyword in another country. For example, say you are in the UK and search for a term such as "online groceries"; Google will try to present you with results that make sense for the UK (as opposed to another country such as the USA).
(7) Click on the 'Get ideas' button
(8) Select the 'Keyword ideas' tab and you will be presented with the search volume data for your keywords and keyword ideas. You should consider keywords that have an average monthly search volume of at least 1000 for a given country and that have low competition.
(9) Competition analysis of keywords is a bit of an advanced topic. Please know that the "Competition" in the keyword tool is not an indication of how hard it will be to rank your website for a particular keyword. This metric is for those who are looking to buy ads on Google, that is AdWords customers. There are keyword tools that give you the difficulty level for ranking for a particular tool at the push of a button, but they are paid tools such as Long Tail Platinum.
(10) For a free solution – you could use Traffic Travis, which is a free tool. Install the tool and when you are ready open it up and create a new project. Give the project a name and then move on to the next step. Select the "SEO" tab in the horizontal bar and then on the "Competition" sub-tab. Enter the keyword(s) that you want to analyze competition for and then click "Fetch". You will be prompted to provide your AdWords account login information so do that and then just wait for the results to load up.The "Difficulty" column will tell you how easy or hard is it going to be to rank for a keyword.

Tropical Salad With Chutney Mayonnaise
Be the first to review
READY IN: 23mins
Recipe by Dreamer in Ontario
I've made this recipe using mango and tofu and absolutely loved it! I seasoned and baked the tofu myself rather than looking for packages of baked tofu but the prepackaged tofu would certainly save time. This salad would also be good using cooked chicken in place of the tofu. From Vegan Express by Nava Atlas.
See Discussion:
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 large broccoli, crown cut into small florets
- 1 (8 ounce) package baked tofu or 8 ounces cooked chicken, diced
- 2 medium mangoes, peeled and diced or 1 (20 ounce) candiced pineapple, well drained
- 2 large celery ribs, sliced diagonally
- 1⁄3 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
- 1⁄3 cup mayonnaise (may use vegan mayo)
- 1⁄3 cup mango chutney (or other fruit chutney)
- mixed baby greens, as needed
- mixed sprouts, as needed
Directions See How It's Made
- Steam broccoli until bright green and just tender crisp (about 3 minutes); transfer into colander and rinse with cold watCoer until broccoli no longer steaming.
- In a large bowl, combine drained broccoli with tofu (or chicken), mango, celery and walnuts.
- Combine the mayonnaise and chutney and stir until smooth; Pour over salad and toss gently.
- Divide greens onto individual plates, mound small amount of salad on each, top with sprouts.

MANAMA: Khaleeji Commercial Bank head of treasury and capital markets Hussam Saif was a key speaker at the Leaders Summit Conference held in India.
Mr Saif submitted a working paper entitled 'The Increasing Importance of Islamic Finance', in which he dealt with the role of Islamic finance in developing key projects in the Far East, and how to employ them for the benefit of different sectors, particularly amid the global economic crisis.
Mr Saif's working paper also discussed the factors that caused Islamic finance institutions to be less affected by the consequences and effects of the financial crisis.
This is due to the compliance of the activities of these financial institutions with the principles of Sharia, based on transparency in dealing with different parties and fairness in the appropriation of returns among all investors.
Leaders Summit Conference is considered one of the most high profile economic events with 60 speakers include prominent executives and decision-makers from different countries of the world taking part.
The conference was also attended by more than 200 leaders of various financial institutions. Participation in this event was only made upon personal invitations extended to leading personalities from around the world.

Mr. and Mrs. Mart Underwood of this city, announce the engagement of their daughter, Miss Virginia Martine to Mr. J. Paul Lamb, the wedding to take place some time after the new year.
The Daily Tribune, Monday, November 21, 1938
Miss Virginia Underwood, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. P. Underwood of this city, and Mr. Paul Lamb, were quietly married, Friday evening at eight o'clock at the Presbyterian Church, the Rev. Ernest Deutsch performing the ceremony.
After a short wedding trip, Mr. and Mrs. Lamb will be at home to their friends at their apartment in the H. A. Verser home.
The Daily Tribune, Saturday January 28, 1939
Three marriage licenses were issued by D. B. Hinton, county clerk, from Jan 25 to Feb 1. They are: Jack Wesley Marshall and Miss Belle Sewell; Paul Lamb and Miss Virginia Underwood; Seamon Hayes and Quenver Farris.
The Daily Tribune, Thursday February 2, 1939
Mrs. Virginia Martine Lamb, wife of Joseph Paul Lamb of the United States Naval Reserve, has just recently received a letter from the Commanding Officer of the U.S.S. Achilles notifying her of the death of her husband. Joseph Lamb entered the service from Bay City.
Mrs. Lamb received the following letter―
Dear Mrs. Lamb:
It is my sad duty to inform you of the details surrounding the missing status of your husband, Joseph Paul Lamb, United States Naval Reserve.
On November 1944 we were anchored in San Pedro Bay Philippine Islands, in support of the operation of Leyte, where we were attacked by enemy aircraft. All hands were at their battle stations fighting the ship but one plane hit us causing a large explosion and instantly killing a number of men. Your husband was in the area where the explosion occurred. Immediately afterward no trace of him could be found, either aboard or in the nearby waters. As we had no positive proof of his death we were forced to report him as missing.
It would be cruel to hold out to you any false hope. And in view of the circumstances, it is my duty to state that we believe that he was lost. In keeping with the highest traditions of the Navy, he gave his life at his battle station in action against the enemy.
All of us that remain feel his loss. We extend to you our sympathy in the sacrifice you have thus made for your country.
Sincerely Yours, Converse O. Smith, Commanding
The Daily Tribune, January 3, 1945
Memorial services for Joseph Paul Lamb, who was killed in the Pacific theatre, in November, will be held at the Presbyterian Church, Sunday morning at 11 o'clock.
Paul Lamb, husband of Mrs. Virginia Martine Lamb of Bay City, entered the service from Bay City. He was on the U.S.S. Achilles, and was in the United States Naval Reserve.

They are not dead; having died for freedom of mankind and with the love of God in their hearts, have found a new life. They are soldiers risen to the highest level, and they can become a living part of you and me--today, tomorrow, and forever.
In the destinies of men and in the glorious history of our nation their souls go marching on.
Because of them our lives will ever be free.
Because of them our great country will forever live, the exemplification of justice to all people under a real democracy.
Let us parents seek surcease of grief in this promise:

1970s One Shoulder Mac Tac Maxi Dress$225 USD
1970s One Shoulder Mac Tac Maxi Dress
Love this one shoulder Greek goddess gown from Mac Tac for Leonard Sunshine! Mac Tac dresses are all made form slinky fluid jersey and most are printed - along the lines of the Bessi, Leonard and Pucci contemporaries of those days. It is a bit rarer to find an all black version and personally I love it - it has a very sophisticated vibe while still being so easy to wear, pack and care for. You literally just throw this on, add shoes and go. You can do flats and a tote for a casual summer day or make it full out glamorous for evening with a simple switch of shoes, bag and baubles! The inner dress is a simple sheath that just skims over the body. An attached layer of fabric gives it that goddess like feel and a bit of extra movement. The one shoulder adds a nice detail and really highlights the drape of the added panel of fabric. Excellent condition!
Bust: 16-18" flat across the back from side seam to side seam with stretch
Waist: 17" flat across the back from side seam to side seam with stretch
Hips: 20" flat across the back from side seam to side seam with stretch
Total length: 55" from top of the shoulder to the hem
Unlined and slips over the head.
Modern Sizing equivalent: SML-MED
Item# DD734
This garment has been professionally cleaned, pressed and is odor free. Thoroughly checked over before shipping, it will be ready to wear upon arrival

The celebrity couple is no longer married by law after attempting a reconciliation for a few months in 2009.
On and off couple Patricia Arquette and Thomas Jane are now officially no longer married. Arquette filed for divorce in January 2009 but they tried on reconciliation a few months later before deciding to once again walk different paths. The divorce was finalized on Friday, July 1.
Arquette married Jane in 2006 and has an eight-year-old daughter with him. They share joint custody of the child. Her rep said back in August 2010, "The split is completely amicable and their prime focus is their daughter."
Arquette herself said in a previous interview with E! Online that their separation is far from nasty drama. "We're both really good. I don't think people would even imagine that it could be so friendly and not weird," she said. Jane also maintains a good relationship with his first wife, actress Aysha Hauer.

Perhaps it should. We aren't talking class A drugs here - no crack, coke, heroin or acid - just ginseng, caffeine, betaine, tryptophan and theanine.
Or that's what food pharmacologist Dr Paul Clayton told Sue Lawley, Francis Wheen, Professor Tony Blake, the world's leading flavour expert, Helen Conn, an expert in nutrition, and myself, and we were going to be fed them as part of an experiment in the Cheltenham Science Festival, which runs until 13 June.
Thank God we didn't have to eat these psychotropic substances in their pure state. By and large, they are inedible. No, the pill was sweetened, as it were, by a seven-course menu prepared by Heston Blumenthal and the Fat Duck team, in the 18th-century grandeur of the Pittville Pump Room.
For the sake of science, unnatural concentrations of these naturally occurring chemicals were tucked away in chicken liver parfait with fig jam; nitro-poached green tea and lime mousse; oyster and passion fruit jelly with lavender; cauliflower risotto; rabbit (in various forms); carrot toffee and chocolate delice. And no, they weren't going to be washed down by a glass or two of Haut-Brion '61 or La Tache '59. Alcohol was forbidden.
Sadly, it wasn't simply a matter of tucking in with gusto and keeping up a running commentary on whether we felt cheery or churlish, saucy or sleepy.
It was more rigorously scientific than that. Between each course, we had to carry out a series of computer-controlled cognitive tests - Immediate Word Recall, Picture Presentation, Simple Reaction Time, Digit Vigilance, Choice Reaction Time, Word Recognition and Picture Recognition, our responses recorded via a response module containing 'no' and 'yes' buttons, which would be used to chart memory, alertness, calmness, sociability or otherwise. In the case of Sue Lawley, who arrived in a pretty crisp state, the result of a hellish trip from London, any change could only be for the jollier.
It is possible this experiment lacked the searching rigour needed for peer group review. I ate more than my fair share of the chicken liver parfait which, containing Siberian ginseng, had a bitterness no amount of doctoring could disguise. Sue Lawley is allergic to oysters, so the rest of us shared her helping. Like good guinea pigs, we stuck to our task and finished everything in front of us, which actually tasted pretty good. No, very good.
And our states were altered. Or so Professor Keith Wesnes, chief executive of Cognitive Drug Research, and his team analysing the data told us. Not that we noticed. I could detect no changes in the accuracy or speed of my memory (lamentable), alertness (dozy), co-ordination (its usual absence), amorous propensities (I beg your pardon?) and so on, although I was consoled by an email from Professor Wesnes afterwards: 'Basically, all your scores were in the normal range for your age'. It is hard to tell if you are in an altered state when you are in the middle of it, although, to judge by the fact that most of this article was written between 3am and 5am because I could not sleep, the levels of caffeine must have been higher than I am used to.
Some of this was high-level performance art, but there are some serious issues involved. Perhaps we should look at it in terms of one current debate. On the one hand, some of us want to be sure that our food comes from a decent source, hasn't been treated in an unnatural way and isn't going to poison us. On the other hand, there are food scientists for whom food is a raw material that can be manipulated, whether to make food taste more like itself or to treat mental as well as physical conditions.
At present, the purists are in the ascendancy, and yet the history of food is the history of intervention, of producing bigger, better, tastier cattle, pigs, potatoes, chickens, apples, cabbages, carrots. It may be true that heart disease and obesity are our modern plagues, but few now suffer from rickets, scurvy or tuberculosis.
Paul Clayton said that he could foresee a time when people could expect to live to 140 or 150. No doubt he is right, thanks to improvements in diet. It's nice to know that we may have played a part, albeit a minuscule one, in this great challenge, although why anyone should want to do so is quite beyond me. Perhaps a few more dinners at the Fat Duck may provide the answer.

Detail of The Week
Just last week, I came across this super fun dressing area set, via Graham and Green, and instantly fell for the details on these luggage–like designs. These pieces are ideal for those who enjoy flexible living or have a small living space, yet want a chic look. This set, called The Orient Express, consists of a storage trunk, dressing table, wardrobe, and jewelry box. (all sold separately) Lovely, timeless pieces, in such pretty, muted color tones...perhaps evocative of that on–vacation feeling? :)
I also love the luggage look as end tables, or actual vintage luggage pieces, stacked in various ways for different vignettes. Round hat boxes are my favorites! {a previous post here} For another fabulous, luggage–like design, though in the form of a portable office, visit Dress, Design, Decor, here.

I love all the lovely side tables, coffee tables, bureaus, etc. masquerading as old fashioned traveling trucks that have been popping up all over the place lately. My favorite though is the amazing (and huge!) trunk from Restoration Hardware that opens up to reveal a secretary desk!ReplyDelete
Very amazing, indeed! I wonder if my local RH has one set up -- I'm sure it's quite the piece in real life.ReplyDelete
This is absolutely beautiful.ReplyDelete
I love the way they styled the desk with the ghost chair and the moroccan stool.ReplyDelete
I love the lucite chair with all that! So cool... thanks for the link too Sarah! These are such great images...ReplyDelete
Love the luggage feel! I dont know about you, but luggage gets me excited because of its association with travel and new experiences. What a fun idea for a handle :)ReplyDelete

I love the "on the road" feeling of these photos. :)ReplyDelete
These look gorgeous and very expensive :) I adore everything. You have such a wonderful taste, darling. xReplyDelete
that is too fabulous!!!ReplyDelete
A great look.....like a treasure chest. Think of all the goodies to hide in all those drawers.ReplyDelete
I really like the look of these pieces. I'm very drawn to warm wood tones, and I just can't get enough of the dressing table! I think it is so smart the way it is designed.. I love it and I want it!ReplyDelete

As General Counsel for a public company, I deal with many of the best law firms and lawyers, for a wide variety of cases and in several states. David Schneider is the best among them. Whether your case is large or small, simple or complex, David is more than capable of handing it, always sincere, always hard-working, and most importantly he always keeps the interests of his client first and foremost. I would--I have stakced him up against big law firms, teams of lawyers, etc., and I have always been more than happy with the results.
Posted by anonymous
My husband and I were represented by David Schneider in a personal injury case involving a motorcycle accident. We interviewed several lawyers for our case and choose David because he was a good listener, a well informed adviser, and seemed honest, ethical, and forthright. We spent the next 4.5 years working with David and his firm and have nothing but wonderful things to say about them. David is, first and foremost, a great communicator. He listens compassionately and without judgement, he considers issues thoroughly before speaking, and then explains his perspective simply and clearly. Due to his extensive experience in both defense and prosecution, he was able to evaluate our case from multiple perspectives and strategize accordingly. His legal partner, and staff are equally talented and were a pleasure to work with. We were pleased with our settlement, but even more pleased to have endured such a difficult life change with the capable and supportive personal care given to us by David Schneider.
Posted by Jim
David is a very knowledgeable and diversified attorney. As a medium sized business with locations in a number of states, we have used David in both complaints and defense cases. He has a practical way of looking at problems and recognizes that spending large amounts of money on attorneys is not always the best way to approach a problem. He is a get it done type of attorney.
When necessary, David has represented us in court and he has always done an outstanding job. He is well prepared, attentive to the proceedings, articulate and respected in the court.
Highly recommended!
Posted by Tim OConnor
Our company has used David's legal services extensively over the years for cases ranging from simple to complex because of his knowledge, diligence, practicality, honesty and integrity.
Posted by Steve
David has litigated dozens of cases for our company and I have never been dissapointed with his performance or his strategies. He is the most prepared attorney I have worked with and he has an uncanny knack for knowing when to be "flexible" and when to stand firm. His winning percentage is out of site but his damage control for cases that are settled is also impressive. I highly recommend David for any type of litigation work.

What is the theme of Gail Godwin's short story "A Sorrowful Woman"?
- print Print
- list Cite
1 Answer
Gail Godwin's short story "A Sorrowful Woman" deals with a number of themes, including the following:
- ambivalent feelings, as the opening two sentences suggest:
- One winter evening she looked at them: the husband durable, receptive, gentle; the child a tender golden three. The sight of them made her so sad and sick she did not want to see them ever again.
- cooperation in marriage, as the second paragraph suggests.
- the tensions that can result from being a mother and wife, as the third paragraph implies.
- the comfort of having an understanding spouse, as the fourth paragraph suggests.
- the idea that parenthood is not entirely pleasurable, as the fifth paragraph suggests.
- the wife's growing lack of control, which is contrasted with the husband's consistent calmness and adaptability (as the seventh paragraph implies).
- the contrast between the moods and personalities of the hired girl, the father, and the child (on the one hand) and those of the mother (on the other hand).
- the mother's growing impetuousness and (self-) destructive behavior, as when she fires the young nanny.
- the exceptional devotion of the man, both as a husband and as a father, as suggested by his behavior after the nanny is fired.
- the consolations (but perhaps also the escapism) provided by art, as when the woman's reading and writing are described.
- the increasingly odd behavior of the woman (which creates growing suspense), as when she no longer wants to see her own child and husband.
- The even more odd behavior of the woman when she engages in a flurry of activity just before apparently committing suicide.
The absence of commentary by the narrator (aside from the opening epigraph, which may imply sympathy for the woman) makes it difficult to know how to respond to this story. Is it simply a slice of one particular family's life? Does it suggest some larger meaning about life in general? Should we feel sympathetic toward the mother? Is she genuinely sick? If so, why did neither she nor the husband seek professional help for her? (He doesn't seem surprised by her apparent suicide.) Is the woman simply selfish, or can she truly not help herself? These are the kinds of questions the story might raise in the minds of some readers, and raising questions – rather than answering them – seems to be the story's main effect. Many will find it difficult to feel much sympathy for this woman, but perhaps we are meant to question such a reaction. If there is a larger theme to this story, perhaps it is "the mystery of life."
By the way, a story worth comparing and contrasting with this one is "The Yellow Wallpaper," by Charlotte Perkins Gilman.

Asian version featuring a bonus Audio/Video CD, with 3 videos and 5 additional audio tracks.
On The Slim Shady LP, Eminem wants it all. He's conflicted, you see; the world has treated him badly, and he wants to respond in kind. But he isn't a straight-up gangsta--this is, after all, the first release on Dr. Dre's Aftermath Records, his post-Death Row-era venture--and Eminem (born Marshall Mathers) doesn't really want anyone to follow in his footsteps, which leads to some interesting contradictions on this album. In the first single, "My Name Is," he's self-deprecating, rapping about his poor upbringing and his hairy palms. But on the very next song, "Guilty Conscience," he plays the devil to Dr. Dre's angel--that is, until Eminem brings up an incident from Dre's devilish past, rapping, "You gonna take advice from someone who slapped Dee Barnes?" Later, on "'97 Bonnie & Clyde," he turns Will Smith's "Just the Two of Us" on its ear, making it a tale of murder; but on "My Fault," he actually feels bad--though whether it's for the girl he overdosed or for himself is tough to figure out. With his nasal Midwestern tone, Mathers has a clean, clear flow, and the production--by Dr. Dre, Marky, and Jeff Bass--is crisp but consistently fun. With his outlook, it's tough to take Eminem too seriously, but he's made an album you don't have to take seriously to enjoy. --Randy Silver

Tengu Izakaya
Some of the most sinful food, at bargain prices11 May, 2011 by Chad
Izakaya are Japanese restaurant-pubs that serve a proper meal in addition to the wide range of alcoholic drinks. They are a comfortable place for salarymen to wind down after a hard day's work, without busting the small amount of pocket money they get from their wives. Tengu is a common chain of Izakaya restaurants found all around Japan. It comes highly recommended from various sources (including ourselves) for providing quality dining while still keeping within Izakaya prices.
On average, a meal at Tengu costs only 2000 yen (3000 with drinks) per person after dividing the tab. In some ways, you might be able to compare the prices at Tengu with Saizeriya. But instead of faux Italian Tengu serves a combination of Japanese faves and other savory delights. The low prices also makes it a popular among groups of struggling students and thrifty young women.
Here's a compiled look at some of the food at Tengu over about 4 visits. All the different outlets seem to serve the same menu but keep in mind that the dishes change slightly from time to time so not everything seen here may be in season. But it covers pretty much anything you'd want to eat on any given day, from bite sized snacks to more substantial meals.
Each dish falls between the 300-600 yen range, with drinks costing the same. The comfortable setting allows you to take your time sampling from the full menu at a leisurely pace. We never felt hurried for time or pressured to order more. In fact the staff keep out of sight most of the time. But press the table-side bell and they appear promptly. It's a great place to spend the night in the company of your friends.
With such a wide menu, the quality of food is bound to differ from item to item. Most of the stuff we've tried have been acceptable though, with some being downright awesome. Take note though that given the nature of the place, alcohol is mostly the motive. And as a result, the food here tend to lean toward the salty side.
One of the dishes that come highly recommended is their Parma Italian Ham Pizza. It's basically bacon on a thin crust pizza. This savory delight had us asking for seconds each visit.
The most unmissable item though is their diced steak. It's some of the most juicy pieces of beef you'll find. The bargain price at this otherwise meat scarce city definitely helps sweeten the deal. The lemon version is uncanny, but has since been taken off the menu. Still, this other garlic one features the same succulent bite sized pieces of meat presented on a hot pan.
There are 49 Tengu outlets throughout Japan right now, most of which are located within Tokyo so you'll have little difficulty finding one there. For those outside the capital, there is also at least one shop within each major city in the Tokai and Kansai regions. For a full list of addresses, or more information about the chain, visit Tengu Izakaya's Official Site.

I went to Tokyoekimae, There are Japanese who can speak english
Oh, by the way, this Tengu is located in Koza, Okinawa City! That was the last time I will be going there! There is a better Izakaya, across highway 330 that has cheaper beer and much better service!
They have great food, a little pricey, but one thing I'm disappointed about is that as a foreigner, I never get the "greeting appetizer" (edamame) like the locals get. Really pisses me off!
Thanks to your recommendation we manage to eat there twice during our visit to Japan.
We ate once at the Shibuya branch ( which take hell a lot of time to find.. ) and at our last night there, we accidentally found another one very near to our hotel ( Tamachi / Mita area )
I'm agree with you, it's really affordable and nice!!
I will go for the sashimi as its looks delicious.

THIS SUPER CHEAP converting this Australian money I can't get anything near that good at that price… O_O
Great stuff mate. Been trying to find a good Izakaya to visit for food and drinks in Tokyo. The food looks quite nice and price seems very good. I'll defo visit a Tengu Izakaya come October 🙂
By the way, when you said it was 3000 including drinks, was that for soft drinks? I've heard of some Izakaya where you can pay for food and then pay extra for unlimited drinks for 2-3 hours.
That's including a drink. Soft drinks are usually as expensive in bars as the liquor. You can pay for unlimited drinks at Tengu too, but you will need to book in advance. You can check it out here: http://www.teng.co.jp/tenpo/shunsen/enkai.shtml
Basically you pay a set fee if 2500-4000 yen to get 7-9 dishes and unlimited drinks for 2 hours.

I'm sarcastic. Not in a mean way--I just tend to make light of most situations. I like girls who can do the same.
I enjoy food. A lot. My idea of going out almost always include some sort of restaurant. I like most cuisines, although I've never eaten a huge amount of seafood. Not sure why--trying to work on it.

A WIRRAL pensioner died just days after being struck by a "quadricycle" as he walked along New Brighton promenade.
The 65-year-old man – who was hit by the four-wheeled pedal-powered vehicle on July 22 – died on Monday, although police say it is "too early to speculate" on the cause of death.
The pensioner, his wife and two boxer dogs, had been walking along the pedestrian promenade between Bubbles play centre and the Home and Bargain store at around 4.15pm last Tuesday when a blue quadricycle with four teenagers onboard came up behind them.
The youths – who were riding and acting anti-socially towards other people on the promenade – struck the pensioner with the vehicle, knocking him to the floor.
After stopping momentarily, the group of teenagers got back onto the quadricyle and left the scene in the direction of Fort Perch Rock.
The man - who had serious underlying medical issues - became poorly and was taken to hospital for treatment for his injuries that included swelling, bruising and head trauma.
He was discharged from hospital on the same day and went home but later returned to hospital on Thursday, July 24 after his condition deteriorated. He died in the early hours of Monday morning.
Merseyside Police has released a CCTV image of four youths in a quadricycle* that officers would like to speak to in connection with an incident in New Brighton on Tuesday, 22 July.
The man's death is being treated as unexplained and a post-mortem is being carried out to determine the cause of his death.
Investigations are underway into the full circumstances of both the incident on the promenade in New Brighton and the man's subsequent death.
Police are keen to identify and trace the four people on board the quadricycle to establish their account of what happened and have released CCTV in an attempt to find them.
CCTV footage of the four teenagers on the quadricycle.
Detective Inspector John Griffith from Wirral CID said: "We are pursuing a number of lines of enquiry to establish who these young men are as we believe they may have information that could assist our investigation.
"I would urge them to come forward and make themselves known to us so that we can go and speak to them and get their version of events. A number of passers-by went to this man's aid after he had been knocked over and I would also encourage those people to also contact the police as they may have information important to this case.
"At this stage it is too early to draw conclusions about the cause of the man's death and it is unhelpful to speculate. We are treating it as an unexplained death until the results of a post mortem examination are known"
- Anyone with information should call Wirral CID on 0151 777 2265 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Completely different genre, but at the moment I'm reading Stephenson's Cryptonomicon – great stuff if you're into maths, cryptography and/or theoretical CS. Books I've liked that are on the same shelve are Ghost in the Wires, GCHQ and The Art of Deception
For some comic relief, anything by David Sedaris is just brilliant. If you're into young-adult fiction (and you've already made your way through classics like the Harry Potter- and the Lord of the Rings series): I've recently read and enjoyed The Hunger Games (books are much better than the 1st movie!), The Maze Runner and the Divergent series.
In any books topic, the Hitchhikers Guide should be mentioned at least once Surrealistic awesomeness.
If you're buying English books but you're not in England or the US, I really recommend checking out The Book Depository. For the last 10 books I've bought they've been the cheapest on 9 of them
The power of now by eckhart tolle
I am reading The Host by Stephanie meyer. The movie will be coming in march
"The Silmarillion" by Tolkien "Roadside Picnic" or "Piknik na obochine" by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky "Not time for the Dragons" or "Ne vremya dlya drakonov" by Nick Perumov and Sergey Lukyanenko "Nuclear Dream" or "Atomny Son" by Sergey Lukyanenko "Knights of Forty Islands" by Sergey Lukyanenko "Seekers of the Sky" by Sergey Lukyanenko
Finished recently:
- Ask the Dust, by John Fante
- Hollywood, by Charles Bukowski
- Pulp, by Charles Bukowski
Science / Pop-Sci / Academic:
- The Collapse of Complex Societies (New Studies in Archaeology), by Joseph A. Tainter
- On Intelligence, by Jeff Hawkins and Sandra Blakeslee
- A Universe from Nothing: Why There Is Something Rather than Nothing, by Lawrence M. Krauss
The Bukowski novels are as good as I expected them to be. What I didn't expect was enjoying Ask the Dust so much.
On Intelligence was just ridiculous, and I mean that in a good way. Ridiculously good, and eye-opening. Made me realize that while I (and pretty much everyone else I know) tend to go around using the word "intelligent" willy-nilly, deep down I've never had a clue what it actually means. This little book cleared (not totally, but still a lot of) that up for me, and made me love science even more.
Currently reading:
- Types and Programming Languages, by Benjamin C. Pierce
- A History of Mathematics, by Carl B. Boyer and Uta C. Merzbach
I'm not reading any fiction at the moment, but I'm in the mood for some dark sci-fi stuff, or some dark cold war-era espionage noir sort of thing. If anyone can recommend anything in that vein I'd appreciate it.
Actually, I might get into those George R. R. Martin books this year, since I recently started watching Game of Thrones and instantly became addicted. Holy guacamole what a great show. However, now I have to decide whether or not I want to somehow spoil myself the TV show watching experience by reading all the books!
Reading good old 'David Copperfield', before sir Terry Pratchett's 'Men at Arms'.
I tend to read a lot, but i'm kinda overflooded with work lately.
You should… must, read Terry Pratchett. I suggest you to start with 'Guards, Guards'.
Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill is the best one for self development. I've read the book 3 times.
no elite suggest I guess they don't have time to read
TheRedGiant saidI recommend "Men of mathematics" by E.T.Bell

It was but another cold and lonely night for the wretched vampire
Who lived from place to place but, unlike most vamps, had no sire.
He was miraculously born into vamphood by mortals,
Which was one fact that always made him chortle
For they were the one thing he hated most
But the one thing he couldnt live without, nor boast.
Now, being hunted akin to the rest of his kind like game,
He was off once more to find peace, not fame.
Rameous was his name, his curse, the one thing he could not escape.
He was hells child, twisted into their own perverted shape.
It was now time to leave this town of men
Before things got nasty, before they got out of hand, again.
He was a kind-heart soul, if a soul is what he had,
Yet they treated him like he was evil, like he was bad.
Though his wings were devilish and his smile was a sneer
He was gentle and kind, he was a dear.
Yet, alas, he had no choice
But to go on in hopes of finding a home, a place he could rejoice.
Along his way, Rameous ran into, quite literally, a thief
But, unlike most, she filled him with relief
For she alone saw him for who, not what he was
And offered to help him, just because.
Her name was Darla and she carried a pack and a knife.
If he had been human, he would have gladly taken her for a wife.
They could use all the money and gadgets she had stolen,
Rameous felt his heart become swollen.
Finally things were looking up instead of looking down.
He could not stop from smiling, he could not even fake a frown.
Just as the two were nearly at their destination,
They ran into vampire slayers all standing in formation.
Their leader, Krane, a hard and stern man,
Scowled in disbelief at him and his men as they ran.
He was the only one left, the only one unafraid.
He unsheathed his sword and brought up his blade.
You shall not pass, you fowl beast!
Rameous laughed, he could have had him for a feast.
Fog vanished And darkness rose
And what was left you would never suppose.
The slayer was dead, killed on the spot.
But he mattered little, he would soon be forgot.
Now onto the place that Darla was leading him
It was so beautiful, so radiant, not dim.
A church, holy ground, such irony befell on him.
This would be his home, his property, his gym.
At last he heard those freedom bells ring
He could finally let his heart celebrate, be glad, and sing.
Rameous - Let Freedom Ring by ShadowedFateWatch
©2004-2017 ShadowedFate
For English class we had to write a poem that told a story. This is mine! It had to be 5 stanzas with the middle 3 about the 3 characters (Rameous, Darla, and Krane), so it was a little difficult to continue on with the story and at the same time describe each character. Then on top of that I had to wrap everything up in just 1 stanza that couldn't be any longer than 10 lines.

(CNSNews.com) -- Senator Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) did not say where Congress gets the constitutional authority to require that every American buy health insurance, as both the Senate and House health care bills mandate. However, McCaskill said that government has "gotten involved" with health care in many ways and, if there is a constitutional issue with the new mandate, the Supreme Court "will weigh in."
The individual health insurance mandate in the Senate health reform bill would force all Americans to carry some form of government-approved health insurance or pay an excise tax penalty ranging between $500 and $1,500 per year.
At the U.S. Capitol on Tuesday, Dec. 22, CNSNews.com asked Sen. McCaskill (D-Mo.), "Specifically where in the Constitution does Congress get the authority to mandate that individuals buy health insurance?"
McCaskill said: "Well the -- we have all kinds of places where the government has gotten involved with health care and mandating insurance. In most states, the government mandates the buying of car insurance, and I can assure everyone that if anything in this bill is unconstitutional, the Supreme Court will weigh in."
The Senate health care bill, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, is 2,078 pages long and is estimated to cost -- over 10 years, with benefits starting in 2014 – at least $1.8 trillion.
The legislation passed on a party-line vote, 60 – 39, on Dec. 24, Christmas Eve. (Sen. Jim Bunning [R-Ky.] skipped the vote, while the two Independents – Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and Sen. Joe Lieberman of Connecticut – joined with the 58 Democrats to pass the bill.)
Back in 1994, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) examined the individual health insurance mandate, which was then being proposed by President Bill Clinton's health care reform effort, and described the idea as an "unprecedented form of federal action."
"The government has never required people to buy any good or service as a condition of lawful residence in the United States," the CBO analysis said. "An individual mandate would have two features that, in combination, would make it unique. First, it would impose a duty on individuals as members of society. Second, it would require people to purchase a specific service that would be heavily regulated by the federal government."
Because Congress has never before required Americans to purchase anything, an individual mandate is without constitutional precedent and would therefore require the Supreme Court to invent en entirely new constitutional doctrine, according to conservative scholars at the Heritage Foundation.
"Nowhere in the Constitution is Congress given the power to mandate that an individual enter into a contract with a private party or purchase a good or service," wrote Heritage scholars Randy Barnett, Nathaniel Stewart, and Todd F. Gaziano.
"Therefore, because this claim of power by Congress would literally be without precedent," they wrote, "it could only be upheld if the Supreme Court is willing to create a new constitutional doctrine."
Sens. John Ensign (R-Nev.) and Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) think the provision falls outside the constitutional purview of the Congress. In a floor speech on Dec. 22, DeMint said the provision was nothing like state-mandated auto insurance.
"Forcing every American to purchase a product is absolutely inconsistent with our Constitution and the freedoms our Founding Fathers hoped to protect," he said. "This is not at all like car insurance. You can choose not to drive but Americans will have no choice whether to buy government-approved insurance."
"This is nothing more than a bailout and takeover of insurance companies," said DeMint. "We're forcing Americans to buy insurance under penalty of law and then Washington bureaucrats will then dictate what these companies can sell to Americans."
"This is not liberty," he said. "It is tyranny of good intentions by elites in Washington who think they can plan our lives better than we can."
On Tuesday, Dec. 22, Sens. John Ensign (R-Nev.) and Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) raised, on behalf of the Republican Steering Committee,
a point of order questioning the constitutionality of the individual mandate.
While the GOP wanted to examine the constitutionality of the mandate, the point of order was dismissed on Wednesday afternoon, Dec, 23, in a roll call vote that split along party lines, 60-39.
In a floor speech when he raised the point of order, Sen. Ensign said, "I am incredibly concerned that the Democrats' proposed individual mandate provision takes away too much freedom and choice from Americans across the country."
"As an American, I felt the obligation to stand up for the individual freedom of every citizen to make their own decision on this issue. I don't believe Congress has the legal authority to force this mandate on its citizens."
A transcript of the exchange between Sen. McCaskill (D-Mo.) and CNSNews.com follows below:
CNSNews.com: "Specifically where in the Constitution does Congress get the authority to mandate that individuals buy health insurance?"
Senator McCaskill: "Well the -- we have all kinds of places where the government has gotten involved with health care and mandating insurance. In most states, the government mandates the buying of car insurance, and I can assure everyone that if anything in this bill is unconstitutional, the Supreme Court will weigh in."

The Spain international has released a video of himself training at full capacity and will be back in time to face Elche, while Messi is making progress too
The 31-year-old Spain international has been missing for the Camp Nou outfit since November's 4-1 win over Real Betis because of a calf injury sustained playing for La Roja against South Africa in a friendly, yet he is now set to replace Jose Pinto in goal for Gerardo Martino's side.
"I'm ready," the goalkeeper Tweeted, alongside a video of him with club physio Juanjo Brau performing a strenuous save in training. "Thanks Juanjo for always being there."
Barca have not yet declared Valdes fit to play but he should be back in time to play Elche in La Liga, while Lionel Messi is expected to return a week later for the crunch encounter against Atletico Madrid after stepping up his training over the Christmas period.
The Argentine star could even return a little earlier, with the midweek encounter against Getafe in the Copa del Rey an opportunity for the Catalans to assess his match readiness.

Englands Hidden ReversePublisher:
Buy It
well bound, limited edition hardback with illustrations, colour photos costing £35 ($45), England's Hidden Reverse looks more like a grimoire than a music biography. But this presentation is perfectly fitting as Keenan proposes an alternate timeline to alternative music; replacing Lydon, punk rock, safety pins and guitars with Crowley, S&M, tape/noise subculture and music for ritual. This edition also contains a free disc (and so it should considering the bloody price) of previously released material by all three acts, which at least it gives you a flavour of the main acts under discussion.
Subtitled A Secret History of the Esoteric Underground, the book follows the lives, careers and intertwining threads of British avant garde musicians Coil, Nurse With Wound and Current 93, although it's as much a book about the whole underground scene (its ethics and its osmosis into the corners of mainstream culture), as it is these key players.
These three strands stick to a fairly chronological line after a brief introductory summing up, though sometimes slipping forwards to explore collaborations or to highlight common issues between these eccentrics bringing them together despite wildly incongruent lifestyles. The Coil story is by far the most interesting read, with Sleazy already having achieving a great level of infamy with both Psychic TV and Throbbing Gristle and partner John Balance's tendency to reach for the extreme. Being a fan of their work it was good to get some rare insight and honest reflection from people exploring boundaries and pushing their art and their muse beyond the concerns for commerce. There are several clear gaps in this strand with Peter Christopherson's (Sleazy's Sunday name) highly respected career as a promo video director for artists including Marc Almond, Sepultura and The The, receiving only cursory comments within the book relegating it as merely a sideline to his Coil day job; his personal opinion and accounts of the visual aspect of his creative life isn't discussed at all.
My brief dalliances with the music of Current 93 and the interviews of its only core member David Tibet always left me with the impression that he was a bit of a helmet. My sole reason for having come to this conclusion? His Noddy as Christ obsession. I still find the vast majority of his work whimsical, silly and charmless after reading this book, but getting access to the thoughts and ideas behind the concepts helps to make some sense of what he was doing. The book seems to lose a lot of its pace when switching to the Nurse With Wound story, with Steven Stapleton's fully domesticated and family orientated lifestyle in the wilds of Ireland not providing any high times, low times or points of great interest (not being as attention-grabbing as Coil's more intense path). I should confess my previous absolute naivety with his music, somehow having come to the mistaken conclusion that that they were affiliates of Whitehouse in both politics and sound.
Keenan's work with magazines like Mojo, Uncut and The Wire has given him the opportunity to work through the darker musical reaches of the British underground and view it within a historical context without lapsing into dry, academic writing. He isn't afraid to call a turd a turd, pointing out the petulance, pretension, idiocy (e.g. the continual rehashing of Manson imagery as some sort of pathetic shock totem) and even the shoddier ends of their back catalogues. Using lengthy but judicious quotes from the people who were actually there, Keenan uses these eye witnesses to colour an important period of place and time (the Secret History of the title) which has been ignored, whitewashed and invalidated for being extreme and unconventional.
As with many biographies covering musicians who are still actively creating England's Hidden Reverse speeds up towards its present day conclusion having insufficient distance to cover very recent events or foresight into what the future might hold. But as with many other good biographies this one leaves you with heading off in new directions, after finishing this I was left with a breadcrumb trail of references to Thighpaulsandra's solo releases, Osman Spare pictures, the work of H.L. Mencken (the magnificent quote referenced here is �There comes a time when every man feels the urge to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and start slitting throats') and London's hidden underground canals.
England's Hidden Reverse leaves the dramatic impression of the Eighties underground as an innovative, mentally dangerous time where conceptual thought and sonic experimentation met in people near the epicentre of the industrial/noise collective who were prepared to use their talents to push beyond the acceptably staid British way of life and produce its cultural flipside.
