Sybella arrives at the convent's doorstep half mad with grief and despair. Those that serve Death are only too happy to offer her refuge - but at a price. The convent views Sybella, naturally skilled in the arts of both death and seduction, as one of their most dangerous weapons. But those assassin's skills are little comfort when the convent returns her to a life that nearly drove her mad. And while Sybella is a weapon of justice wrought by the god of Death himself, He must give her a reason to live. When she discovers an unexpected ally imprisoned in the dungeons, will a daughter of Death find something other than vengeance to live for?

"Sybella Kicks MAJOR Butt"
This book was phenomenal! I had really high hopes for this book after reading Grave Mercy and it didn't disappoint even one bit…I got everything I wanted and more!
After reading Grave Mercy, I was super excited when I learned that in Dark Triumph we get to learn more about Sybella, cause all throughout Grave Mercy we only got to see little glimpses of Sybella, and her character was extremely intriguing. Now I know why! Holy CRAP! That girl has had one extremely messed up life. I don't think it could at all get any worse than what she had to go through, and I knew that pretty much immediately as soon as I discovered who her family was. And OMG!...it's horrifying. I kept questioning myself like, "Is that really her dad? Oh crap!" Being able to be in Sybella's mind, to truly understand what she's thinking, and gauge her reactions to situations was perfect!
Other than Sybella's story, there are other things that I was thrilled that we get to see more of. We get to learn more about St. Mortain (Death) and the Convent. We get to see Ismae through Sybella's eyes and we get to know more about the politics between the countries. And we learn more about the death marks!
Every part of this book was fabulous. The beginning, the middle and the end were all AWESOME! And hooray for the romance! Score!!! It was the most perfect of all perfect matches! I couldn't have asked for a better dude for Sybella.
I'm super excited that the last book in the His Fair Assassin Trilogy is going to be about Annith. I can't imagine what kind of life she has had, and I hope that she gets a happily ever after. I have a feeling that I'm going to have a really hard time saying goodbye to this series. I can't believe there is only one book left.
"Triumph Indeed!"
This is just a good book all around. Complex characters, wonderful world building, and an interesting depth to the story. This book showed me things I dare only imagaine in my darkest nightmares and somehow made that enjoyable and left me wanting more.
The story is full of a suspense and mystery that will leave you guessing. If you liked
Grave Mercy you will LOVE Dark Triumph. There is not as much romance in this one
but the little that is there is so sweet and pure it completely satisfies.
Highly recommended.
"My Favorite of th Series"
Dark Triumph is Sybella's story, and as others have mentioned (and as the title implies) it's a much darker tale than Ismae's. For me, this was part of the book's appeal. The stakes are high in Grave Mercy, but in Dark Triumph everything is ratcheted up a notch. Not only are there political problems but very personal ones as well. For Sybella, this situation truly is one of life or death, and she may not escape with her sanity intact.
Sybella is a spy in her father's house. Sent back to d'Albret by the Abbess of St. Mortain, Sybella is at the heart of the rebellion against Duchess Anne. It's a dangerous place to be, for d'Albret is truly black at the core. And is his household resides another monster, one whose love for Sybella has twisted into something rotten. Sybella finds her sanity chipping away with every day.
Then the Abbess orders Sybella to rescue the Beast of Waroch, who was believed to have fallen in battle against d'Albret's men, but who, in reality, lives languishing in the dungeon.
I love the Beast. I loved him in the last book. He was probably my favorite character, and so I was just thrilled to be following his story this time around. And Beast and Sybella. They really work.
Fabulous audio version, as well.
"So disappointing!"
I am drawn into the 2nd book, the continuing adventures of the characters.
Having a different narrator reading this book from the first book is like watching and growing to love Hugh Jackman who played "Wolverine," only to have Dustin Hoffman attempt to portray him in the sequel!
The overly exaggerated, almost breathless cadence of the sentence-to- sentence reading done by Angela Goethal makes for an unrealistic telling, a trying-too-hard modern-day reading, versus telling the reader a story from the main character's mind in a manner of speech and tone of the time, full of thoughtful pauses, musings, and a conversational style that leaves us with the feeling of a realistic first-person experience retold.
I wonder if Ms. Goethal read the book through beforehand, was familiar with the characters, the story or perhaps had a chance to listen to Erin Moon's reading of the first book?
I wish she had! I cringe as I listen to the 2nd book, and only bear the audio narration to learn what happens to the characters I've grown to care about.
I like the audio books because they allow me to hear a story while driving, or not having to read, but that means the narrator is everything.
I think I'll stop the narration and read the words on the page to spare myself the depiction of the characters and story as told by Angela Goethal.
"Entertaining story"
While book 1 followed Ismae's story, this one followed Sybella's, and I assume the last book will follow Annith. Sybella's story was plagued by her father's dark and twisted hold on the lives of many. She was strong and courageous and took the reader on an adventure that was heartbreaking and triumphant over and over again. This book makes you feel many emotions and become strongly attached to the characters. I found this book way easier to follow than book 1, as it is much less focused on all the political players (whom I had a hard time keeping track of) and focuses in on Sybella as a delicate and strong person.
"Review: Dark Triumph"
This book has been sitting in my Netgalley list for longer than I like to admit, but I finally got around to reading book 1 and was glad that I had this sitting there. I thought that I would need to read book 1 in order to get into this book, and yes it is very helpful for the backstory but realistically you can read this book without having read the first in the series.
This book follows Sybella, another assassin from the convent of Mortain, as she is embedding the the evil deeds of her family and others who oppose the Dutchess. She does everything in her power to help but it is a slippery slope between helping the cause and death.
I enjoyed Ismae's story in Grave Mercy very much, I liked her as a character, I also enjoyed how she interacted with others, but I really loved how broken Sybella is and how she struggles with her past and her future and how she comes to know herself and her place in the world. I think that where book one was a lot of politics and world building this book took the time to really delve into the main character and the reader is able to feel the pain and suffering and yearning Sybella has. She is mean and raunchy but soft and innocent all at the same time.
This story follows where the last one left off, so it is a continuation overall but like I mentioned you don't need to read book one to understand everything that is going on. However there are a lot of politics in that book and they are helpful - so it is up to you. The books are both very lengthy at about 550 pages each or 13-14 hours as audiobooks.
The series is wonderful though. They are mature young adult books with a lot of hard topics these girls face including death, killing, politics/ places of women, and rape and incest. So be prepared for a lot if you plan on reading the series.
"Even Better than The First"
I absolutely loved this book! At first I was a little confused about the narrator change, but then I understood that in was to give each girl their own voice. I love books with assassins and this book did not disappoint. Truly loved listening to what was happing with Sybella and how she came to terms with who she is.
"Love, Love this Trilogy"
Assassins trained by nuns, who fall in love with strong principled men......what more can I say. This book was a little darker than the first but I still loved it!
I enjoyed the 2nd book just as much as the first. Read well. Great story.
"Excellent storytelling. Excellent performance."
as the second book in a series I was nervous it would not live up to the first. However, this was an amazing read.

When nil the glories of thc night ami day
"Hare fled for aye ;
From Friendship's glance and beauty's winsome
I pasB away
After a little while.
After a little while,
Tho snow will fall from time and Trial shocks
Down these dark locks;
Then cleaving onward to the Golden Isle,
I pass tito rocks

After a little while,
Perchance, whon youth is blazoned cn my brow,
As hopa is now, . -
I droop and wither in tb ta dim defile)
A fruitless bough
After a litt Io while.
After a little while,
And clouds*that shimmer on thc robes of June,
And vestal moon,
No moro lny vagrant fancies can beguile; ***

After a littles while,
The birds will serenade in bush and tret,
Hut not-for me.
On billows duskier thou the gloomy Nile,

ti ho Will be ilcsponsible !
A writer in tho Jackson Appeal, who claims
to he. familiar with the planting districts of
Georgia aud Alabama, says the farmers are.
preparing to plant large crop-;, of cotton. Ho
hud conversed with many intelligent gentle
ttu-rt. who ii:forint d him that thc planters of
Middle Georgia and South Alabama intended
planting not only alj tho new law allowed
tli-m, but that they intended disregarding en
tirely a law which they cims'idtlred uncon
stitutional. We have beard these rumors
from sources nearer home, and ?have sofne
reason to fear there is s'<me truth in them.
We have heard it intimated-that, the Legis
lature had no right to transcend ihe. bounds
of the Constitution l>y dictating to men xchnt
they shall plant or sow, and then hy seizing
whatever provisions they shall raise at one
third its value. This is some fd* thc legiti
mate frtjits of government seizures. It opens
to our view a wry dark future. Our Con
gress, h is exhibited, nothing but imbecility
during the whole of its present session. Ap
parently members have been too bu-ily en
gaged in making personal explanations, vu
liaaftr resolutions of thanks to pelly military
officials, expelling reporters, discussing ?be
merits of .Mime proposed model for a (lag and
seal, or indulging in empty declamation con:
corning the law of Hdockado, to give their
attention to the currency or to the convnis
sarjal. ?drae of our .Slate Legislatures and
State Executives have boen rendering their
names illustrious by in-ane at tempts to de
stroy the rights of private property, the qnes
lionable enterprise of breaking down ali law,
ami by attempting to rc.volutioniz.-j society
generally. The results aro now looming up
before u\ and wlit-re shali the end be? Let
the Legislature oj th's Siajo guarantee *.:?
?ts citizms the anuiciii'rlgbt-s nf private prup
fjtty, ami the pr W?MO.I crop will always pruVe
adequate to the demand.
On the other hand, let the planters Onto
gard the u-gent demands of the country;
let them disregard 'he peri!? which surround
them, and turn a dont ear to the eal's of
their countrymen, who aro now serving in
the field on half rations, and whose families
arc at home famishing for bread; let them
laugh at the distress everywhere apparent ju
our Intnl. ant; pjanl colton in? aulicijpitinn ol'
amassing mammoth fortunes. Will it not
then beeyiue tho imperative dut}' of every
soldier now in the Hold to return to his rlis
tre-MM tl famjly, and endeavor by InOie.st ?Ps
dustry't? save thom from the horrors ol'star
vation ! Which has thu most to lose by sub
jugation and confisca: ?0.1, the poor soldier or
ihe wealthy planter! Men ol the plow, bt
tcare. All eyes are now turned upon you.
lu your deci.-iort rests the fate of tills Confed
eracy. Il"we are subjugated within the next
twelve months for want of food, who will be
responsible ?-Col. S.un, 2.>d.
HlOnWAY ROBBERY,-'Tho Savannah Hf
publican of the .'list ult. Ima the following:
t)n Sunday evening about dark two sol
diers way-laid a negro man un the Middle
Ground Hoad as ho was returning on horse'
back lo the country, whence he liad-como to
bis masters house. Seiz-ng' the bridle, they
stopped bim, demanding " a pass." He an
swered that he bad noue. '* Well, got down
and go to tho guard house.'' Tho servant,.
; obeyed, but he had hazily discounted a beu,
with a vjo'ent blow above the temple, lui
was knocked down, and robbed of everything
he had, bis pockets' rilled, ?e. ppon recov
ering he caughfTthe horse and returned, with
a deep"*gash iii his hdatT und covered with

killed! Onr own soldier knock-me down,
and steal everything Irom me ! They is worse

One activo ?peculator, in breadstuff*, says
the Macon (Gu.) Tcl'ijra'ph, is a more clfec
live and dangerous foo to thc Confederate
cause, in our opinion, than a battalion, of
Federal troops. Ile does immense mischief
himself by stimulating prices; but he does a
great deal'tnore by Btimulating'the spirit oF
speculation-fur men need ??light induceraierifs'
i rf the way of preceptor example to go-into
a business certain to produce wealth, though
unfortunately it amy be at tho expense ot
WMcjeooe a.-d country. A single speculator
may often poison a whole uommuniiy by his
pernicious inlluenccand example.

I wouldn 't be worrying so much about the ageing factor, but how much interest is still accruing on those student loans. Getting those paid off as soon as possible is very important. The age factor of accounts in my case is poor but the remainder of the factors are very good to excellent. The age of accounts will take care of itself in due time (pun intended).
160 People Helped
Closed accounts in good standing still count towards your average age of accounts, so I would pay them off.
1500 People Helped
While "closed accounts" are not factored into the "age" on some non-fico scoring systems like this one, "closed" accounts are factored in with FICO scoring and FICO scores are the important ones as most lenders use a version of them. That said, I would get these loans paid off if you are in the position to.

That dominating and flirtatious female boss that stars in pre-pubescent fantasies has come to life in Northbrook. But fantasy is not reality, and in real life this boss got hit with a sexual harassment lawsuit.
William Lott of Palatine filed a complaint against his female boss on Wednesday in the Circuit Court of Cook County, claiming he was subject to inappropriate comments, innuendos, date requests, touching and other inappropriate behavior at his job, Chicago Breaking News Center reports.
Lott, who is described in the complaint as "an African American male," says his supervisor at Kenny Construction Company in Northbrook, "Caucasian female" Laura Manaugh, continually stared at Lott's body in a provocative way, inquired about his dating life and discussed her husband's sexual prowess with Lott.
Manaugh did not subject a similarly situated Caucasian female employee at Kenny to the same comments or actions.
Lott claims in the complaint that he was denied training opportunities and promotions after turning down Manaugh's advances. In one instance Manaugh locked Lott out of the computer system that Lott needed to access in order to successfully do his job.
Lott was eventually told that his job had been "eliminated," and was subsequently terminated.
Lott is suing his employer for sexual harassment, race discrimination, retaliation and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Photographer's Note
54km from Kota is the temple town of Badoli, where, in the Archaeological Survey of India enclosure under an enchanting copse of kadam, mango, jamun & peepal trees is a complex of temples, indicating a past Hindu religious site in a forest. The temples are dated between the 9th and the 12th centuries and the eight big and small temples show a varied degree of preservation, decay and destruction. But what is remarkable about these temples is that they were left largely untouched by the Afghan invaders and still stand in marvellous dignity.
The Badoli temples are not very large ones, & these temples were not designed for hordes of worshippers, and their size makes it apparent that their use was restricted mainly to holy men and local believers, with the royalty dropping by once in a while. Built from stone, all temples here have detailed carvings in pillars, ceilings and roofs.
The main shrine is dedicated to Shiva as Ghateshwara which you can see in the centre. The complex has some ruins strewn around and many images show signs of defacement. Some of the sculptures from these temples are now in the Government Museum at Kota. Some pillars & columns, sculpted with apsaras (heavenly nymphs) and celestial beauties, which once adorned the temples lie in the small garden, is various states of neglect, some lying down, some standing, for renovation & cleaning. I used one such column for the FG in this picture.
Badoli is not exactly a destination in the popular touristic circuit, but is definitely worth a visit.

Hello Angshuman!
The temples and the statue are quite interesting, exotical and beautiful! Your pictures is very attractive with excellent pov, composition, sharpness, exposure, colors and depth of field!
TFS - congratulations!
Best regards,
feather (51130) 2009-07-07 3:07
I was having a quick browse of my favourites' photos gallery when I got up this morning and noted a desert scene from you, among the thumbnails. Now I come to leave a critique and it's gone to be replaced by architecture (your first love?)
The composition is excellent with the column complete with aspara used to frame the temples. The column just misses perfect focus, although f11 made it fairly sharp. Without a tripod a wider DOF was probably not possible, but just focusing slightly closer and then re-composing may have done the trick. The detail on the temples is perfect with all the intricate carving shown to good advantage. The lady walking into the scene is well placed and also serves to give some idea of scale.
mkgoyal2004 (837) 2009-07-07 3:27
Hi Angshuman Ji,
I have heard about this temple and planning to go this place in next Jan./Feb. I have seen some photos of this temple, but there is no parity with your photo. Your most of the photos are superb and give inspiration to me to improve my photography also.
One thing I wants to know, how can I take more sharp photos at the time of click? Either you enhance the sharpness in the photoshop or you take photos so sharp to set the shutter speed and exposure?
In critiques I have seen your comments. Thanks for that. I have never planned the uploaded photographs by area. Now I will try to represent all the states, which I have covered till now. Only 3 states (Tripura, Mizoram and Jharkhand) I have not yet covered. In Sep. this year I am going to HP.
Hope we will meet soon.
With regards.

Hello my dear Prof. Angshuman
This is a splendid considerate photo indeed .
Very nice framework, color coordination, clear and sharp pan-focus.
Congratulation on your great job !
Thanks for your sharing and best regards,
Bartleby (13552) 2009-07-07 4:59
Hi Angshu,
nice composition. Exposure must have been tough though considering your foreground apsara is in the shadow. You managed that quite well. The addition of the lady in pink adds some sense of scale. I like that.
sandpiper (6788) 2009-07-07 5:12
Hi Angshuman
Excellent composition of this fine looking temple complex. Sometimes ruins in various state of decay are more interesting than fully retored ones.
asajernigan (21427) 2009-07-07 5:56
Excellent composition here with the inclusion of the statue on the right seeming to point to the other buildings. The angle of the shot works well giving the scene nice depth and direction. The lighting and colors are fine with excellent sharpness and DOF.
avene (12675) 2009-07-07 10:48
hello Angshuman,
withouth the person walking into the frame the photo would be only half as good, as far as I'm concerned. the sense of scale and of movement against the ancient structures, the colour accent, she brings it all :) I also like how you have composed the scene, the sculpture in the foreground (is it a bit soft?) works well as a natural frame.
dareco (17134) 2009-07-07 22:01

Encore une merveilleuse image.

Hi Angshu,
beautiful and interesting architectural details,
good framing and placement of the statue in the foreground,
pierrefonds (76261) 2009-07-08 4:43
Hi Amgshuman,
The presence of the person has an effect of scale. The point of view is showing the fine details and colors of the architecture of the temples. The trees and the bushers are framing well the temples. The early afternoon light has a good effect on the colors. Have a nice day.
jafadabret (56501) 2009-07-08 8:25
Hi Angshu.
Cette photo est très bien composée avec la statue en premier plan qui ouvre la vue sur les temples. La personne qui passe donne l'échelle et le mouvement.
Bien fait !

I like very much when there is a mix of people and architecture,when this is like here,just one woman bringing a superb touch of color with her sari in this splendid temple!This is very well framed too,I like the use of the statue as foreground,showing with its arm the kind of towrs of the background!Superb!
emjleclercq (15780) 2009-07-13 12:58
Nice composition with this very female statue on the foreground (it would be hard to mistake her for a male character), and these very fine temples in the background.
All the best,
karthikcs (271) 2009-07-13 21:44
Good capture and superb notes. Nice POV and TFS
Kielia (24077) 2009-07-14 11:49
Hi Angshuman,
what I like here is the great perspective! A very cleverly composed impression of the beautiful statue and the magnificent temples. The light is very beautiful and emphasizing the atmosphere of dignity. I also enjoyed reading your interesting note. My compliments!
Warm regards
InasiaJones (31566) 2009-07-20 2:27
Hi Angshu,
I like the contrast between the voluptuous stone diva and the lday walking in the garden, looking so small, thanks to a clever use of wide angle for dramatic perspective.
Saturated colours and positive vibration!
pablominto (53746) 2009-07-23 23:09
Hello Angshu,
Interesting details in the ancient architecture and sculpture!
The fine light renders rich colours, and i appreciate inclusion of the lady as she adds life and some scaling...
A balanced composition with good depth!
Pablo -
axiotea (21651) 2009-07-24 3:23
Bonjour Angshu
A fine pov and a suitable framing to introduce us the Nymph of Badoli, here well positioned, leaving room to the temples... You handled well the strong light and had a good timed captured on the lady appearing next to the statue. Great blue sky as well!
subhendu_bagchi (26091) 2009-08-03 2:16
Hi Angshuman, a nice capture. Balance of tone is perfect. DOF is fantastic. The temple is also a gorgeous one. You have composed the temples in a very good manner. Excellent...Thanks for sharing.
HimalAnda (10671) 2009-10-13 10:04
Hello Angshuman,
I like the way you composed this picture : the statue on the foreground brings a lot of depth to the photo and its right arm seems to show us the temple.

" Manufacturer: keep-it-Candy / Type: Novelty Toy "
* Prices may differ from that shown
My daughter (bless her and her bargain hunting ways!), was given the option of whatever she wanted as a treat when we went shopping recently, as long as it cost no more than £1.00.
My son of course went for the closest and easiest option, but my daughter decided to search through the shop first before committing to her choice, luckily so too, as she may well have missed this gem!
Although my daughter loves chocolate, she has a real penchant for sweets in the style of love hearts, the crumbling candy type, so when she found this set (being sold for exactly £1.00!), she acted like she was in seventh heaven!
The set in question is called "Keep-it-candy - candy jewellery kit".
The idea of this set is to make, then eat your own creations of edible jewellery, very much like the candy bracelets and watches that have been around for so many years!
Within the set you get enough plastic coated cord to equate to three medium sized bracelets, or even four small one's and a ring, and enough ringed candy pieces for said creations.
Also included are three larger sized "clasps", which are not quite as they sound, with them simply being a piece of candy shaped like a butterfly, flower or heart, that can be almost used to cover up the knotted end of the cord, though the way we managed to knot the cord up even the ringed pieces of candy didn't cover it!
The candy pieces are in various different colours, pinks, whites, greens and lilacs, with there being a different coloured "clasp" piece of candy for each creation.
To assemble the jewellery it is similar to threading a bracelet with beads, though of course clean hands and not dropping the pieces on the floor is a must, these are expected to be eaten after all!
Once created (which took considerably longer than it took to actually eat it!), you simply knot the cord up then you can wear your creation, whilst eating it too, though do be warned that these are not the easiest things to eat, as once bitten into, the rings very often go flying off in all directions.
Once eaten the cord is left, this is the only un-edible part of the jewellery, and though is non-toxic (luckily as my kids end up chewing this part a lot too), shouldn't actually be deliberately consumed.
Calorie wise a 10g serving of this candy contains 37 cals, 0g fat, 8.8g sugars and 0g salt, this said however if your child has ever had an effects from E numbers (hyperactivity, etc) this could potentially produce some side effects, though thankfully my kids have never been affected in that way.
Taste wise this is actually quite nice, my daughter insisted that she make me a bracelet from the set, and the taste is very in line with the afore mentioned love heart sweets, a nice fruity taste.
I think this is a fantastic little set, which for the price allows the child to not only have the sweets that they crave (almost on a minutely basis with my two!), but also allows them to create something first, thus meaning that the sweets last ten minutes instead of two!
Once opened the candy should be kept in an air tight container for freshness, and the set has a good shelf life of twelve months, I liked this set so much I actually gave these out as Easter gifts instead of the onslaught of chocolate every child receives.
These sets are available as part of an Asda non branded section in my local store, but can be purchased as a set of 12 for around the £10.00 mark via www.amazon.co.uk, which makes these ideal party bag fillers.
Thanks for reading x

You need to get an account on photobucket.com and put it on there first. Then click on insert image on a post here and use the link from photobucket. Hope that makes sense.

Getting into a routine with your baby is a personal thing. You'll learn to read your baby's cues to develop a pattern of eating, sleeping, and playing that meets your little one's needs and works for your family.
That said, it can be a big help to see what other moms and dads are doing. We asked parents of 9- and 10-month-olds to share their baby's daily schedule, then picked the eight below as a helpful representation.
As you're creating a schedule for your baby, keep in mind that at 9 and 10 months most babies need:
- Solid foods three times a day, plus about 24 to 32 ounces of breast milk or formula in a 24-hour period. (Get specific tips on how to tell whether your baby is getting enough breast milk or formula.) By now, your baby will likely be eating a variety of different foods and taking an active role at mealtimes by self-feeding and drinking from a sippy cup.
- About 14 hours of sleep in a 24-hour period – this includes nighttime sleep and naps. Two naps during the day (morning and afternoon) is typical. Read more about sleep needs at this age.
- Time for playing, working on new skills, and interacting with you.
Schedule 1: A formula-feeding work-at-home mom of a 9-month-old
Editor's note: This schedule is a combination (parent-led and baby-led) routine
I work at home, so we don't get out and about in the morning very often (except to the library at 10 a.m. on Friday for the infant playgroup).
6:30 to 7:30 a.m.: Sera wakes and cuddles with Mom and Dad (we co-sleep right now), then she has a 7- to 8-ounce bottle of formula.
8 a.m.: Mom starts working on her laptop. We spend most of the day in the living room/playroom. Sera is a walking pro, so baby gates are my friend!
8:30 to 9 a.m.: Breakfast. I give her small pieces of cheese, ham, fresh fruit, veggies, and cereal Os.
9 to 10 a.m.: Sera plays, watches some cartoons, and "reads" books mostly independently. I join in when I can.
10 a.m.: She has a 7- to 8-ounce bottle, and then naps for an hour and a half to two hours.
Noon: Lunch. She only eats finger foods, so I give her whatever I have in the house: Small pieces of cheese, meat, fresh veggies, fruit, noodles, and so on, followed by a 6- to 7-ounce bottle.
12:45 to 3 p.m.: Play while Mommy works (same as above).
3 p.m.: Mommy done working. We play together, run errands, clean house (rarely!), go shopping – whatever. She either naps in the car if we go out, or we sneak a nap in around 3:30 or 4 p.m. for an hour and a half to two hours – yes, I said "we"! She has another 7- to 8-ounce bottle in there somewhere.
5:30 to 6 p.m.: Dinner for Sera, same as lunch.
6:30 p.m.: My husband comes home, and we eat dinner. He plays with Sera until around 7:30.
7:30 p.m.: She gets a bath and another bottle and we put her down for the night.
Schedule 2: A formula-feeding working mom of a 10-month-old
Editor's note: This schedule is a combination (parent-led and baby-led) routine
Our schedule is different than most – we start and end late. Daddy works a 12-hour night shift every other night, and Mommy works a standard 9-to-5 shift.
11:30 a.m.: Wake up and eat breakfast – a 9-ounce bottle of soy formula, oatmeal mixed with soy milk, small pieces of fruit, and some fruit puffs.
Noon: Play with Daddy, usually inside the house. She likes her flash cards, toy guitar and piano, books, balls, blocks, big plastic snap beads, and lots of noisy toys.
Between 1 and 2 p.m.: She goes down for her nap, which lasts about two hours.
Between 3 and 4 p.m.: She wakes up and has lunch – a bottle, one jar of stage 3 fruit or veggies, and veggie or fruit puffs.
4 p.m.: Play with Daddy
5:30 p.m.: Mommy comes home. The adults eat dinner while the baby snacks on veggie puffs or has small bites of our food. On nights when he works, Daddy leaves around 6:30 p.m.
6:45 p.m.: She naps for about 45 minutes.
7:30 p.m.: She has dinner – another bottle, one jar of stage 3 dinner, and fruit or veggie puffs.
8 p.m.: I usually give her a bath, depending on how the day goes.
9 to 11 p.m.: She plays with Mommy and Daddy (on nights when he's home) until she's tired. Then she gets another bottle, and we brush her teeth and do the bedtime routine. I rock her in my arms while I sing "You Are My Sunshine."

Nissan Motor Acceptance Corp. knew Deuce McAllister was a football player - not a veteran of the car business - and did little to help his dealership succeed, the former New Orleans Saints running back claims in court records.
McAllister's attorneys made the allegation this week in a counterclaim to a federal lawsuit filed by NMAC, which seeks more than $1.5 million from McAllister and his company, Deuce McAllister Motors LLC., over the defunct dealership.
McAllister, 31, was a football star at the University of Mississippi and spent eight seasons as one of the Saints' most popular players before being released in February. He has invested heavily in his native Mississippi, including the Nissan business, a luxury car dealership and high-end real estate.
Deuce McAllister Nissan of Jackson, however, closed this year. The dealership operated in Chapter 11 for a time and agreed to liquidate its remaining assets through Chapter 7 bankruptcy in May.
NMAC later sued McAllister in U.S. District Court in Jackson, claiming the dealership defaulted on hundreds of thousands of dollars in payments in 2008 and exceeded its credit limits even more, among other things.
NMAC knew McAllister "was a young professional athlete inexperienced in the motor vehicle sales business" and was depending on NMAC to help the company succeed, according to court filings.
McAllister already had a used-car business when he opened the Nissan store.
Instead of helping in the Nissan venture, McAllister claims NMAC withheld information that the dealership wouldn't be profitable in the area and neglected to warn him that one of his partners had done business with a Nissan-related dealership before and "was unsuitable for the management position."
NMAC attorney Chad J. Hammons of Jackson referred questions to the company. NMAC spokesman Fred Standish told The Associated Press on Wednesday the company doesn't comment on litigation.
In court records, NMAC says it found problems with the dealership during its 2008 audit, then sent a monitor there and reinstated its credit. But the dealership continued to sell cars and not pay NMAC back, racking up more debt, according to the lawsuit.
As a result of the failed business, McAllister's counterclaim says he lost money and "incurred damage to his business relationships and reputation, and has suffered mental anguish and anxiety." He's seeking unspecified damages at this time.
McAllister's lawyer had no comment.

Sassieon Dupris ft. Jr Patton - Dancing in the Rain
When storm clouds gather, most people hurry to the nearest shelter, for fear of getting their kicks wet. Sassieon Dupris rushes outside to practice his Dougie, according to the lead single (a Booth-exclusive world premiere!) off his forthcoming full-length. Of course, the Tulsa singer/songwriter's not getting down just for the fun of it—he's celebrating his imminent ascent to the upper echelons of the game. Over Quentin Miller's understated horns, Dupris announces, "This my decade, this my century / Next millennium, they gon' remember me." Jr. Patton, a fellow T-Town repper, lends his melodic flow to verse two. L.S.D (Long Slumberless Dreams) currently lacks a drop date, but we'll keep you supplied with the latest news and tunes leading up to its eventual arrival. In the meantime, you can still stream his Love| Fear| & Fantasies II LP for free in the Booth.

Police are investigating a home invasion in Bristol after two men with a gun and a baseball bat forced their way into a home on Caesar Drive.
A resident called Bristol Police at 9:11 pm on Thursday to report that two men forced their way in through the back door.
The victim told police one man was holding a handgun and the other was holding a baseball bat.
They forced two of the occupants to get on the floor but left when they found that a third person in the house had called the police.
No injuries were reported.
The man who had the gun was muscular, between 5-feet-10 and 6-feet-tall and was wearing all black clothing.
The man who had the baseball bat was around 5-feet-9 with a heavy build and was also wearing all black clothing.
Anyone with information about the incident should call the Bristol Police Detective Division at 860-314-4561.

G20 leaders gave themselves more time in cutting budget deficits Tuesday during a two-day conference in Mexico.
After agreeing to slice budget deficits in half by 2013, G20 countries are backtracking on those promises claiming that cuts might hurt the global economy.
"In light of the weak pace of global growth, they will ensure that the pace of fiscal consolidation is appropriate to support the recovery," G20 policymakers said in a communique, according to Reuters.
"Global growth remains modest and downside risks are still elevated."
The initial target was drawn up at the 2010 G20 in Toronto but slow growth has stalled any hope of reaching that goal.
The IMF has predicted that global growth would shrink to 3.3 percent and that unemployment would remain high.

AFP said the meeting centered around the European debt crisis and a looming "fiscal cliff" in the United States - automatic spending cuts that could leave the nation's bills unpaid.
Tuesday's presidential election likely meant that the US delegation was not ready to make serious commitments or be specific about policy proposals.
Still many representatives worried about the state of the US economy.
"If we're not able to resolve the cliff, that could be the tipping point for a much more complicated scenario in the world economy," Chile's finance minister, Felipe Larrain, told Reuters.
Japan was also a worry for meeting attendees, as was commodity markets, which could face further "supply shocks."
Reuters said that the meeting was mainly attended by deputies rather than top heads of state or their finance ministers.

No matter how she tried, Norma Koontz, the guest artist at today's First Friday Poetry Reading, couldn't completely avoid writing about discrimination. ''I have tried hard not to be identified as a black poet, so I've always avoided race topics,'' she tells us, but she found she couldn't avoid discussing prejudice altogether. ''Somebody said, 'The more you ignore the elephant in the room, the bigger he becomes.' I've been looking at experiences in my life and I found that more than being discriminated against because I was black, I've been shortcut by being female. I told somebody I was going to paint my house one day, and they said, 'You can't paint no house; you're a girl.' Nobody ever told me I couldn't paint a house because I was black.''
Koontz, who was born in the late 1930s, also addresses other issues she experiences in her daily life. ''When I was raising children, [my writing] was usually about them. In the last two years, I've started a new romance and that is taking up a lot of my time and attention.''

No other rock band will ever begin life like Boston did, birthed in an MIT graduate's hand-built basement studio. No other band will ever sell 17 millions copies of its first album, or make their New York City debut at Madison Square Garden. No other band will, nearly 35 years later, still be able to draw gargantuan crowds based on the strength of only five records, all of which are adorned with silly sci-fi spaceships. And no other band will ever get everyone from prog-rock guitar nerds to drunk and rowdy bikers to suburban regular Joes head-banging, air-guitaring and singing along with epic, arena-ready hits like "More Than a Feeling," "Peace of Mind" and "Don't Look Back."
But for all the ensuing drama — founding member Tom Scholz's long-running legal disputes with disgruntled managers, a bevy of lawsuits from unhappy record labels, or lead singer Brad Delp's tragic suicide in 2007 — Boston's recent story is fit for a Lifetime miniseries. Before the tribute concert held in Delp's honor, longtime fan and regular guy Tommy DeCarlo sent a few karaoke tracks to Tom Scholz. Boston's mastermind liked what he heard, invited DeCarlo to join the band as its new lead vocalist, and the rest, as they say, is rock 'n' roll history — precisely the kind of history that will probably never be repeated again.
Drift chatted with DeCarlo about his unlikely ascension from Home Depot employee to rock star, Boston's collaborative and healthy philosophies, and returning to St. Augustine.
Drift: This upcoming St. Augustine show serves as a make-up for one that got canceled a couple of years back, right, Tommy?
Tommy DeCarlo: Yes. Back in 2008 there was a hurricane that blew through, and unfortunately St. Augustine was the one venue on the entire tour that we had to cancel. It's a long time coming, and we're really excited for the fans that want to come out and see Boston make up for that gig.
Drift: Spoken like a true rock star. But you weren't one five years ago. How'd you end up from 9-to-5er to the lead singer of Boston?
TD: Well, it all stems from the unfortunate suicide of Brad Delp, which, for anybody who was a Boston fan, was a tough thing to hear about. Like any other fan, I was on the Boston website seeing about the tribute show .... I got the band's email address from someone who said, "Hey, you ought to send your stuff out to see if Boston could use any help." I sent the band some mp3s of me singing a few tunes to karaoke, and, lo and behold, they made their way to Tom [Scholz], who liked what he heard. That's how I came to perform with the band at the Brad Delp tribute show in 2007, which was the first time I had ever walked out on stage to perform with a live band.
Drift: How much vocal coaching did the band have you do after you joined?
TD: Believe it or not, Tom never had me doing major training — I took the initiative to get my craft to where it needed to be for live performances and studio work. One of the great things about this band is everyone lives in a very healthy way. Tom's a vegetarian, as is Gary Pihl, who's been with the band since the early '80s. You can't help but pick up on their habits, which is really a blessing because I've ended up eating better and taking care of myself more. That definitely helps physically when there 's so much demand on the road and you're really pushing yourself every night to perform for the fans.
Drift: Do you think those fans have accepted you?
TD: The majority have been very supportive. You're always going to have a few skeptics, but that goes for anything, whether you're in a band or paving driveways. I always tell people that I've been a fan a lot longer than I've been a member. Am I still a little bit star-struck? Yeah, absolutely — at the same time, it's really nice to know that Tom has enough confidence in my vocal abilities to fill that role of lead singer.
Drift: How hard was it to learn the whole catalog — or at least the portion you guys perform live?
TD: It's not easy. Brad set the bar incredibly high on a lot of the notes and keys the songs are sung in. We all do our best, though, and it's really gratifying to leave an audience happy about seeing their favorite band perform the music they've come to love over the years.
Drift: New co-vocalist and guitarist David Victor will handle some singing on this upcoming tour. Who decides the breakdown?
TD: The set list and who sings what comes from Tom, but it really is a collaborative effort between everybody. We all spend hours working on harmony parts, so whenever you're not singing lead, you're singing harmony. I consider anybody singing as singing lead because the parts are so challenging.
Drift: Supposedly there's a new Boston studio album in the works. Can you comment on that?
TD: That's a question better suited for Tom. I was able to record some stuff for that particular album, and I'm excited to hear it myself. But we've been so busy with this tour that we really haven't done anything else in the studio. With any luck, though, we'll all get to hear it someday soon.
Drift: Has the Boston experience drastically changed you or your family?
TD: I definitely feel like I'm the same person. One of the most gratifying things for me is that my wife and kids have been able to share in this experience. We're such a close family; my wife and I have been married going on 25 years, and both of our kids are in their early 20s and still living at home, so we must be doing something right. They're both musicians, so we're constantly sitting around in the music room trying to come up with song ideas.
Drift: Do you ever get treated like a rock star — and secretly enjoy it?
TD: I'm pretty average. You could pass me in any store and you'd have no idea. And if people do recognize me, I always take the time to be polite. If I ever ran into one of my favorite rock stars, I would hope they were cool enough to take a minute and talk to me. I've always considered myself to be an extension of the fans out there —it was only a handful of years ago that I had nosebleed seats with my son watching Boston from way in the back. So I love the fact that I have the opportunity to be a fan and still be up on stage with the band playing them. I feel very thankful and fortunate.
Boston performs at 7:30 p.m. Sunday, July 1 at St. Augustine Ampitheatre, 1340 A1A South. Tickets range from $39.50 to $125, and more information can be found by going to www.StAugAmphitheatre.com or calling 209-0367.

SCOTTISH Secretary Alistair Carmichael has called on the SNP to fill in "missing details" about the party's bid to fast-track an independent Scotland into the EU.
The LibDem cabinet minister challenged the Nationalists to explain claims that an independent Scotland would gain swift entry to the EU on the same terms as the UK.
Speaking ahead of an appearance before a Holyrood committee by SNP Culture Secretary Fiona Hyslop, Carmichael said: "The Scottish Government could make a significant contribution to the referendum debate by filling in a great deal of missing detail on its plans to take an independent Scotland into Europe. It's clear there are no shortcuts to entry or to preferential terms and conditions and that a growing number of key figures close to the decision-making process are casting doubts on their preferred route into the EU."

He urged the Scottish Government to reveal which EU countries supported its plans for fast-track membership and to set out alternative proposals if accession talks faced delays. He also questioned the claim that an independent Scotland would be able to negotiate the same membership terms as the UK.
A spokesman for Deputy First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said: "The question Alistair Carmichael needs to answer is why he supports a Tory Government that risks dragging Scotland out of the EU. Scotland is in the EU and has been for 40 years - no member state has said it would veto Scotland's continued membership.
"We have put forward a suggested mechanism by which Scotland can make the transition from being in the EU as part of the UK to being part of the EU as an independent country."
