(not posed)
A couple of months ago, just before he turned 4, Will, who had been silently mouthing words in the family room, suddenly piped up with an observation: "Mom, your name is the only one in our family that you can say without moving your tongue!" Then he demonstrated. I found myself copying him to verify. He meant, of course, "Mom," not Alexandra. But he was right. Even "dad" requires some different placement of the tongue. I should have know he was up to something.
Shortly after that, his sweet little pronunciation (or mispronunciation) of 'r' changed. He used to sort of swallow the r, in that very typical way of young kids. He is "foe" not "four," etc etc. But suddenly he began over-enunciating his rs. He was fouRRR, now. Did we want to go to the stoRRRRRe? And now his little brother is PoRRRRRteRRR. He had performed speech therapy on himself and in the couRRRRse of a few weeks he had gone from his sweet mispronunciation to funny over-enunciation and now perfect pronunciation of r. He explained that he had to do this because he wasn't saying his words coRRectly. He was tired of me sometimes being confused about what he was communicating to me. I don't even notice anymore, we are that used to the change. I even thought to myself when he was going through the transition that I needed to videotape him speaking, because he would still slip back into old ways, and I wanted to capture it before it was extinguished. But I just didn't. I found some footage of him at his birthday breakfast declaring himself to now be "foe," but it is so short.
The least I can do is record now that it happened over the Christmas season. And though I have printed it here before, this poem has taken on special relevance.
Saying Goodbye to Very Young Children
They will not be the same next time. The sayings
so cute, just slightly off, will be corrected.
Their eyes will be more skeptical, plugged in
the more securely to the worldly buzz
of television, alphabet, and street talk,
culture polluting their gazes' pure blue.
It makes you see at last the value of
those boring aunts and neighbors (their smells
of summer sweat and cigarettes, their faces
like shapes of sky between shade-giving leaves)
who knew you from the start, when you were zero,
cooing their nothings before you could be bored
or knew a name, not even your own, or how
this world brave with hellos turns all goodbye.
Perhaps this is the silver lining to Porter's failure to develop the power of speech? (He has about 10 or 12 words).

Rio Olympics 2016: While athletes have disappointed, there are a number of questions that must be answered
India had many close moments at the Olympics but have not been able to bag a medal yet.
India sent a 119 strong contingent to the Rio Olympics and barring the hockey team and possibly Sania Mirza (for her no.1 doubles ranking), none of our higher ranked medal aspirants could come even close to winning a medal. The only ones who were one win away were Abhinav Bindra, Dipa Karmakar, Sania Mirza & Rohan Bopanna, Hockey team, Atanu Das, Vikas Krishnan and PV Sindhu (her semi-final encounter is due). While this short list of players gave us some hope, it's the others who have let the country down badly.
Disappointing return
The disappointing Rio Olympics return will start temporary debates about facilities, about officials travelling, about economy class travel and other sundry excuses.
But that would be missing the whole point.
Indian athletes have certain 'blocks' at the biggest stage and most of them need better mental and physical preparation in future. After Glasgow Commonwealth Games 2014, I had detailed the poor conversion rate Indian athletes had after reaching finals – a meagre 33% – and questioned if this was an indicator for Rio 2016. Am afraid it was.
Excuses no more
When a player is ranked in the world's top ten, then he/she has done it either with or despite the system, the facilities, the Babudom and the corruption. We aren't the only corrupt country in the world. Nor the only disturbed one.
Iran, Romania, Vietnam, Kenya, Kosovo, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Egypt, Turkey, Tunisia and Georgia have all won medals. Some of these countries are massively affected with civil war, poverty and/or frequent terrorist strikes.
That India's talent tapping system is improving can be gauged by the fact that we sent a 119 large contingent. In 1996, only 49 competitors had sailed. In 20 years we have more than doubled the count of athletes qualifying for Olympics.
There were reports which suggested that for Rio, the ministry approved players reaching Rio even earlier (than usual) to acclimatise better and had spent more money than before to ensure a better return from the games.
Note, these are sports which many don't follow in India. These sportspersons don't even remotely face the kind of pressure our cricketers face, day in day out. When these sportspersons fail, they aren't criticised long; but if they shine, they become stars of a massive nation. The upside, very high, the downside, not so low. Isn't that motivation enough?
Central & State sports ministers needs to answer
PM Narendra Modi has always promised us maximum governance. That should mean corporate style ruthless execution and also key posts linked to key performance indicators. For the Rio Olympics showing the centre should make the sports minister accountable. The state sports ministers too. There is no better and objective appraisal than reading the performance at Olympics, World championships and other mega events.
There are enough reports suggesting how our ministers were huddled inside posh hotels and missed cheering boxer Vikas Krishnan's bout, discuss thrower Seema Antil or Greco-roman wrestler Ravinder Khatri. Officials have been found busy taking selfies with tired athletes, more interested in partying, inadequate medical staff, ill qualified medical staff travelling. When you are on a corporate travel and miss meetings scheduled at the destination, you get stern warnings. That should be the procedure here.
Since the central sports minister was appointed only two months ago, doing a reshuffle is unfair but he still needs to come out and give a fair assessment of the situation. There should be a detailed press conference where officials should be allowed to ask them questions on what went wrong, what steps the government took the last two years, how much of it got materialised, what are mitigation steps and action plan for immediate next three months?
The government should make it clear, going ahead, that performance in biggest events would be considered the most objective appraisal mechanism. Such an assessment procedure will ensure in future ministers do everything needful - grant, provide, assist athletes and federations to give off their best.
Mental or Fundamental?
When an athlete (and I won't get into naming and personal shaming) is ranked in top six of the world in successive Olympics, you expect the athlete to put up some fight at the grand stage. Yet when they crash out at the qualification stage in an event and is not the best performer in the sport, it does affect the morale and performance of the team, as a unit.
When an athlete is World ranked No.1 & 4, in two events in their discipline, and yet doesn't even finish in top ten of both events there is reason to worry. When an athlete is ranked no. 5 and gets knocked out in the first round to a player outside the world's top 50 or when a fighter is ranked third best in the world and loses 0-3 in the first round then tough questions will be asked.
This is a stage for which they all have been dreaming, persevering and fighting it out for years. A tough fight and performance worthy of their rankings was what was expected.
When the hockey team finishes in finishes in the quarters (last 8), they have at least played as per their rankings (Currently, no.5, although the were No. 7 two months ago). But we will come to hockey later.
The few bright sparks
There are some who have out punched above their weight. Notably, some veteran war horses – Sania Mirza and Rohan Bopanna had a combined rank of 11th in the mixed doubles event, hardly have played together and don't have mixed doubles pedigree. Yet they finished in the semi-finals and gave their best.
Abhinav Bindra lost gallantly fighting tooth and nail, agonisingly coming close to winning a medal. He has now retired from the sport and India will forever be thankful to him.
Tripura girl Dipa Karmakar became the first Indian to make it to the finals of the individual vault finals in her debut Olympics, finally finishing a heartbreaking fourth. She scripted history by being the country's first woman gymnast to qualify and managed to perform her much-appreciated 'Produnova' vault cleanly.
Also read: Rio Olympics 2016: CCI to award Olympian Dipa Karmakar
Bombayla Devi Laishram, ranked 69th in the world reached the Round of 16 (pre-quarters) in the individual event and was superb in the quarter-finals of the team event. She managed to outperform and over achieve – something which the big stage is expected to bring out from the best athletes.
Her co-archer Atanu Das, ranked 22 in the world, got an impressive 5th place in the ranking event and only lost out in the Round of 16 stage. That's a massive improvement over his ranking and displays ability to stretch own potential to the limit.
Indian shuttler Kidambi Srikanth (ranked no.11), as I write, has made it to Round of 8 and will face Lin Dan later today, He has at least achieved beyond his potential at the grandest stage and we can only look forward to cheer with full gusto. More so for PV Sindhu, who beat the world no. 2 to reach the semi-finals earlier today. The big stage must get the best out of our best.
Hockey miss
If there was one team event, many in India were following closely, it was Hockey. After a fabulous showing in the Champions Trophy, two months ago, where they took the finals to penalty strokes, much was expected.
Instead what one saw was a familiar story repeated. In most of India's games, they let in key goals in the last quarter of the game. It left them precariously placed at fourth in Group B and needing a win against Canada. Every team had spanked Canada left-right-centre till then – 20 goals scored against in 4 games.
But India managed a tame draw – again a goal granted in the last quarter. That draw cost India a third place and a less menacing quarter-final opponent, Spain. Spain lost their quarters easily to Argentina, whom India had comfortably beaten in group stages. That Canada draw made India face the best team in the event, Belgium, who had scored 21 goals and let in just 5 group stage goals (5 games). Expectedly, Belgium thrashed India 3-1 out of Olympics.
That Canada draw made India face the best team in the event, Belgium, who had scored 21 goals and let in just 5 group stage goals (5 games). Expectedly, Belgium sent India 3-1 out of Olympics.
The turning point of our campaign – a meek draw against the worst team!
Of all the teams that made it to the quarterfinals, India scored the least goals. Their 9 goals in 5 group games was a poor return when Spain & Australia had pumped in 13 goals. More was expected from the world number 5 team.
All the best to the future stars
We hope the athletes do some introspection and only come out stronger from here on. Media debates, government bashing and fault-finding may last a week, but the bigger picture must not be missed.
India's Olympic medallists of this century are big stars. One of them is a minister for the current government – Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore. Boxer Vijender Singh did a Bollywood film and has gone professional with his sport, notching up a 7-0 impressive knockout career wins.
Mary Kom had a Bollywood movie made on her life. Yogeshwar Dutt and Sushil Kumar have featured in many television shows. Sania Mirza and Saina Nehwal are massive superstars. The list is never-ending. The motivation is never ending. The desire, determination and perseverance to be the best should be never ending too.

Hey ladies,
Sorry it's been so long since I updated. Been a little busy and with summer I'm outside more than anything right now.
Things between Kane and I seem to be going fairly smoothly. It's a little bumpy right now, and I'm still figuring things out in my heart. But as of right now. It's smooth.
I've missed a lot on the board and I'm so sorry! I'm going to try my best to catch up tonight, and then try and stay caught up!
I'm also hoping to offer some readings too eventually. I haven't read through my tarot book, but I have other cards I could use, and I'm feeling drawn to do so. It's going to be a matter of timing it when my DD isn't with me

I know, I know...I haven't blogged in days! Please let me offer my extreme apologies to you! I'm back, though, and ready to get rolling again!
Today I've decided to post about someone I've definitely been keeping my eye on:
♥ Chace Crawford
Has anyone seen this guy? Actually, has anyone not seen this guy? He is complete eye candy, and I swear I drool everytime I see him. He's 23 years old, and 3 inches taller than me (big plus!). So if I ever run into him (because I'm that cool) I don't have to feel awkward that my dream guy is short. :)
I shouldn't be this obsessed, but truth be told: I am! I don't know what it is. It must be leftover hormones from my teenage years, because this is similar to my Backstreet Boys obsession...okay, maybe it's not quite that bad.
Anyhow, I ♥ Chace Crawford, and if I have to watch Gossip Girl just to see him, I will!

Scribocin (Vitamin S) - a vital ingredient of good writing; the magic element that makes words 'leap off' the page and compels the reader to read on. If it cannot be synthesised in sufficient quantity by the organism of a writer, it has to be obtained from diet.

This past Halloween, The String Cheese Incident turned in another special themed set of music at the Suwanee Hulaween music festival. This year's theme was "Stringier Things", a play on the popular Netflix science-fiction show "Stranger Things" that dominated pop culture this summer. The show takes place in the 1980s, and the music in the show reflects that time period with tons of synthesizer sounds, provided by retro masterminds Survive. In honor of this awesome soundtrack, String Cheese Incident put together a live playlist of their favorite songs from the decade to deliver the ultimate tribute to the 80's.
The band opened the set with "Would I Lie To You?" by Eurythmics, before busting out tracks by The Clash, Earth, Wind and Fire, Billy Idol, The B-52s, Guns N' Roses and other icons from the era. "Upside Down" by Diana Ross was trotted out as a direct tribute to "Stranger Things", a reference to the spooky alternate reality from the TV show. The band also mixed in some goofy classics like "The Safety Dance" by Men Without Hats and "She Blinded Me With Science" by Thomas Dolby.
It was an incredible party and an awesome way to celebrate Halloween, keeping the crowd dancing throughout as they went from one hit song to another. The band was joined by the horn section from Antibalas, as well as vocalists Rhonda Thomas and Tony White, all of whom added a special vibe to the occasion and helped bring SCI's sound to new places.
Thanks to YouTube user The Sober Goat, we can relive the magic of the "Stringier Things" set in all of its glory. Watch the entire set below!
The String Cheese Incident "Stringier Things" | Suwannee Hulaween | Live Oak, FL | 10/29/16
Setlist: Would I Lie To You?, Should I Stay Or Should I Go, Upside Down, She Blinded Me With Science, Let's Groove Tonight, White Wedding, Sweet Child O' Mine, Love Shack, 80's Medleys

Excellent service and friendly staff. We were really happy with our new high quality windows.
We hired Thompson Bros. to do a complete exterior renovation to our home including new roof, siding, windows, doors and lighting. Thompson Bros. were extremely knowledgeable, professional and courteous. Here are the reasons we are so pleased with Thompson Bros. work: 1) They showed up every morning from the time the project started until it was completed. 2) They completed the project within the time frame estimated. 3) The crew were professional and paid attention to the smallest detail to ensure we were pleased with the project. 4) The crew were courteous, respected our property and cleaned up after each day of work. 5) The owners regularly checked in with us to ask if we had any questions or concerns and always answered our questions. 6) They explained the estimate to us so that we understood the scope of work and the type of materials that would be used. 7) Once the project was complete their quote remained consistent with what we agreed to - with no surprises. 8) They cleaned up all the nails and I have yet to find one. We would highly recommend Thompson Bros. to anyone looking for superior quality and skilled workmanship for their home renovation project. We are very pleased with the results they achieved to improve our home.
I had this company do a total exterior make over of my home (roofing, siding, windows, doors and a deck). I could not be more pleased with the reuslts. They were extremly professional from start to finish and extremy easy to deal with. The crew were very careful around my flower beds and did a wonderful job cleaning up daily. I would defintley recommend this company because they went the extra distance to please me.
We used this company Twice in the last year and I have had nothing but excellent results! They sided my house which is very large in Oct and Nov and with all the crummy weather still had it done in a reasonable amount of time, and I might add it LOOKS WONDERFUL! They also put a large deck on and it is amazing it is more than we could have asked for. The men that were here were excellent for clean up at the end of each day and respectful of our property. We defenitly disagree with the first review for this company. We have used this company in the past and intend to do so again and again. I would 100% recommend this company!
I had this company do extensive work on our home. They replaced the roof, installed all new windows and doors, built a large deck on the back of our house, and completed alot of work on the interior as well. I have nothing but great things to say. I strongly disagree with the above review as my experience was nothing but positive. Each day the clean up around our yard and house was extensive. The workers were very professional and respectful of our property. The work was done when they had estimated it to be done. We would highly recommend this company, and we will definitely be using them again in the future!

Beginning September 28, 2015, Viewers to Volunteers is available as an app, and you can use it in a whole new way! Every time you read, watch, and share the inspiring stories on V2V, you'll earn points.

There are still plenty of California Chardonnay drinkers out there who want "big and buttery," and they don't care who knows it. That's cool with me, I'm not judging—I just don't want that personally. I prefer more brightness and freshness. Obviously, it's wrong to typecast California Chardonnay these days, as it is actually a quite diverse and exciting category, but at the lower end of the price spectrum, I encounter more sweetness/butter than the opposite. Enter Matt Ahern, a seasoned sommelier and wine sales pro whose mission in starting his Wonderland Project was to create affordable California Chardonnay that he, himself "wanted to drink." In the case of today's 2014 "White Queen," it means lively, mineral, minimally oaked Chardonnay with no shortage of depth—but no excess of extract or sweetness. This is Chardonnay I want to drink, too, and if your tastes run to the cleaner, crisper end of the Chardonnay spectrum (Puligny, Chablis, etc.), I'd highly recommend picking some up. At this price-point, there is nothing like it on the market.
"At this price-point, there is nothing like it on the market."

A job that I like, a lover that I love, a dog, a pickup truck, and a place to live.
To live long enough to see grand children and to be there for my chidren when they really need me that is all i want.
Setting the human race right -- one religious wacko and one bimbo at a time. But seriously, getting out alive. :-)
That would be having a career that brings honor to myself and my family.
i would like to make it further in life then the rest of my family. i would like to be able to look back into my life and be able to say "i made it".
My ultimate goal is to be able to save the life of others in many ways. I will have my own production company that attends to all areas of business. Movies, Theater, Books,Music,Restaurants,Work From home, Schools,Foundations, Non-profit,Grants etc..
I would use the money made from my company to expand in these areas. Also helping along the way with words of wisdom. To our youth. I believe that is my purpose, A family and health all plays along in my blessings to come. As a women of god I will always take care of my responsibilities.Ultimately the strength to carry on no matter what :)
my ultimate goal is.........and so whats yours?
My ultimate goal is to continue with my ministry, teaching the bible, and continue giving my heart and soul to God.
My ultimate Goal? I've always wanted to teach History, I want to write at least 2 books, and I hope to own my own business by the time I'm 35. But my Ultimate goal is to have a family of my own. :) thank you for your question :)

Book Review: A Week in Winter
Posted May 30, 2016on:
A Week in Winter by Maeve Binchy, Alfred Knopf, 2013, 326 pp.
This is my first Maeve Binchy novel, though I know many who love her. There is an odd pattern between A Week in Winter and A Wedding in December, both about inns and innkeepers in winter, and both unfolding stories of multiple characters centering on their time spent together at the inn. The novels share more subtle similarities too–lovely writing, characters that are charming and entertaining but not gripping, a good story for beach reading (or a snow day!).
A Week in Winter centers on a small inn in the town of Stoneybridge on the west coast of Ireland. Chicky Starr, after years away in New York living what everyone assumed was a happily married life, has returned to Stoneybridge to renovate an old home into an inn, bringing experience running a boardinghouse. Everyone things she is crazy, because no one would want to visit Stoneybridge.
The first chapter belongs to Chicky's story, and each subsequent chapter adds a new character to the week at the inn, unpacking the journey that got them to that one place and time together. The second and third chapters bring in the employees of the inn. Rigger is a troubled youth sent to family in Stoneybridge to hide out from his life in Dublin, and makes a life for himself there. Orla found success as a young, professional woman living the fancy life in the city, but could not find all she wanted there. She puts her business sense to use at the inn and finds hope.
The guests each get a chapter to tell their story as well. They include an unhappy schoolteacher who leaves soon after making everyone miserable, a movie star trying to escape attention and travel incognito, two young doctors who have been broken by seeing too much death, a mother and her potential daughter-in-law who do not like each other yet refuse to give up on the man they both love, a Swedish young man choosing between what he loves and what his family expects of him, a librarian troubled by visions of the future, and a couple who is disappointed that they won a contest's second-prize trip to Stoneybridge instead of the first-place trip to Paris.
Each chapter is like a short story of its own, interwoven together by setting and integrating one another as secondary characters. The stories are charming, hopeful and endearing. I was reminded of Jan Karon's Mitford series, which keeps everything nice. While the stories do approach life's difficulties, they allude more than explore, and most characters find redemption. It's a feel-good book all around, and I didn't mind a bit.
Book Review: Necessary Lies
Posted January 12, 2016on:
Necessary Lies by Diana Chamberlain, St. Martin's Griffin, 2014, 372 pp.
Like recent reads What She Left Behind, Orphan Train and Orphan #8, this novel begins in the author's discovery of a little-known aspect of history, one that focuses on the lived reality of a small subset of people often overlooked. Those books turned on the stories of orphans and mental health patients; Necessary Lies opens the story of forced sterilization among impoverished women in North Carolina in the mid-20th century. The story's characters are fictional, but the author drew on historical research into the lives of the women impacted by sterilization decisions.
The main characters of the story are Ivy Hart and Jane Forrester. Jane is a college graduate newly married to a pediatrician, Robert, who expects her to align with the lifestyle of a doctor's wife in 1960–Junior League, bridge club, social events with other doctor's wives. Jane has her own ideas. She wants to use her degree and serve others, so she takes a job as a social worker for the county welfare. She drives all over fictional Grace County meeting clients, helping tend to their needs and making sure they are not duping the government. She is also charged with making the case for sterilization.
Fifteen year old Ivy Hart is one of her clients. She lives with her grandmother, her older sister, and her nephew as a sharecropper on the Gardiner family farm. She is in a loving romantic relationship with the Gardiner's son Henry. They share the land with the Jordan family as well, an African-American woman and her five sons.
Jane's supervisor and co-workers agree that Ivy should be sterilized, and her grandmother is eager to sign the permission form after her older sister's pregnancy. However, Ivy dreams of a family. As Jane grows to care for Ivy and hear her story, she resists, with dire consequences.
The novel is a plot-driven page-turner. Ivy, Jane and the rest are likable enough characters, but this is not a book in which to find great depth or lasting characters or magnificent writing. It's a great summer read, vacation read, or escape read. The insight into a unique and painful piece of history was enough to intrigue me, and I enjoyed the story greatly.
Book Review: Beautiful Ruins
Posted November 29, 2015on:
Beautiful Ruins by Jess Walter, HarperPerennial, 2012, 337 pp.
When NPR's Fresh Air calls this the best book of the year, you know it's on my list to read. The book jacket is covered in "best book" endorsements from the New York Times, Boston Globe and many other trusted sources. Beautiful Ruins earned every one of them.
Just listen to this opening line, which won me over immediately:
April 1962, Porto Vergogna, Italy
The dying actress arrived in his village the only way one could come directly–in a boat that motored into the cove, lurched past the rock jetty, and bumped against the end of the pier.
I mean, already we have a beautiful writing and a story about a dying actress and an Italian man in a remote Italian village in the early 1960s. I was hooked.
Very quickly, we come to know that the man in the story is Pasquale Tursi, a native of tiny Porto Vergogna who has inherited his father's small inn and his passion for making it (and the town) a tourist destination. The dying actress is Dee Moray, who is in Italy to play a lady-in-waiting in the movie Cleopatra, with Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. A doctor tells her she has stomach cancer, and the movie's publicist, Michael Deane, ships her off to Porto Vergogna and leaves her there. She is the inn's only guest, apart from an American, Alvis Bender, who ostensibly spends a few weeks there every year to write his novel, but really just drinks the days away.
The story then jumps to "recently" in Hollywood, California. We meet Claire Silver, a young woman interested in film as literature and currently working as an assistant to Michael Deane. Between 1962 and "recently," Deane became one of the most powerful, innovative producers in Hollywood, but has fallen from success and is now a washed-up has-been, making bad reality TV shows. We also meet Shane Wheeler, an aspiring filmmaker who is coming to make a pitch to Michael Deane.
On the day Shane shows up to make his pitch, met by Claire, Pasquale Tursi also appears–and the past secrets all begin to pour out. The novel moves back and forth between the events of 1962 and "recently;" between Porto Vergogna, Cleopatra and today's United States; between Pasquale, Claire, Alvis Bender, Shane, Dee Moray, and Michael Deane, with major doses of Richard Burton thrown in for fun. Their lives become intertwined, chance encounters become lasting relationships or missed opportunities, and the story keeps the reader wondering how it will all work out in the end. I cared about all of the characters, and wanted to find out if they would get what was coming to them–whether love or healing or punishment or justice.
Beautiful Ruins sometimes made me shake my head in shame at the human condition, then made me weep at the beauty, then made me laugh out loud. I couldn't put it down, and it was beautiful from beginning to end. I can't wait to read Jess Walter's next book. Find Beautiful Ruins. Read it. You won't regret it.
Book Review: Orphan #8
Posted November 29, 2015on:
Orphan #8 by Kim van Alkemade, William Morrow/HarperCollins, 2015, 381 pp.
I enjoyed reading this book, which was more like fictionalized history than historical fiction. Van Alkemade learned of her grandfather's time spent in the Hebrew Orphans home, while his own mother also lived and work there. In pursuing more about his life there, she stumbled across the story of a group of orphans suffering from alopecia caused by "x-ray treatments" received in their time there. She continued to pursue her research, learning as much as possible about the medical experiments, life in the home, and stories of those who lived there.
This novel is a fictionalized version of that collected history. Van Alkemade does a marvelous job of weaving together a unified story and full, fictionalized characters from the history she unearthed, but there are moments and plot developments that feel forced or uneven–usually because she chooses to stick with what actually happened, rather than what might make a more satisfying story. It's the danger found in all memoir, of neglecting storytelling in favor of recording facts. The novel suffers only lightly, however, and it is still well worth reading.
The story centers on the fictional character Rachel Rabinowitz, who becomes an orphan at age 4, along with her older brother. They are separated when Rachel goes to the Hebrew Infants Home rather than the Orphan Home for older children, and it is during her time at the Infants Home that she experiences the dangerous radiation, the medical experiment of a young doctor. We meet Rachel as an adult, when she is a nurse in a hospice unit who discovers she is caring for the doctor who gave her those painful, life-altering treatments.
There is a lot going on in the story–Rachel's coming out, her relationship with her brother, her ethical decision about how to relate to the ailing doctor in her care as a nurse, the environment and information about the life of orphans in the early decades of the 20th century, and more. While it was all interesting material, it was cumbersome from time to time, as the novel bounced between different eras and relationships. Again, van Alkemade chooses to service history over story from time to time. Yet Rachel is such an enjoyable companion that it overcomes much.
Nevertheless, Orphan #8 was a fascinating read, van Alkemade is a good storyteller, and I enjoyed learning about this unique time and place in history.
The All-Girl Filling Station's Last Reunion by Fannie Flagg, Random House, 2013, 347 pp.
This book was such a disappointment. If I hadn't been stranded on a trip with nothing else, I don't know if I would have finished it. While it wasn't boring, it was also not particularly interesting. All the richness, novelty and questionable behavior of the characters in Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe has been replaced by two-dimensional characters and predictable plot developments and outcomes. Even more, the book's perspective on identity felt dated and even tinged with a level of prejudice and stereotype that made me uncomfortable.
The central character is Sookie Poole, a Southern housewife rapidly approaching age 60 and experiencing an empty nest. Her life is dominated by her mother Lenore Simmons, who has delusions of grandeur about her family heritage, personal talents and Sookie's potential. While Flagg writes with a lightness and humor, the decision to name Sookie's children Dee-Dee, CeCe and LeLe was just too much sugar. Their characters were about as mature and developed as their names, and Sookie is about as deep as hers.
One day, Sookie gets an elusive message that she is "not who she thinks she is," and discovers she is adopted. The domineering Lenore and her Simmons legacy are not actually hers by blood. For me, Sookie's reaction made her ridiculous and unlikeable. She believed she was a fraud who owed apologies and resignations to all her Southern organizations. She goes through major contortions to hide her visits to a therapist, as though such a thing would cause her whole community to crumble. Her birth mother's Polish last name inspires her to indulge in stereotypes about Polish people to see which ones might apply to her. Seriously, Fannie Flagg–do you think someone would be that genteelly horrified to discover they are Polish? If they are, they are not a character I would want to get to know. Sookie felt both unbelievable and unlikable.
The book's one redeeming element was the unfolding back story of Sookie's birth family, a group of immigrants raising four girls and a boy by running a Phillips 66 Filling Station. When World War II breaks out, the son leaves for the war, the father grows ill, and the young women take over the business. Eventually, several of them become pilots and join the WASPs. The lead sister is Fritzi Jurdabralinski, an independent, strong-willed woman who eventually becomes a stunt pilot and wing walker, opening the door for the rest of the family to learn how to fly. Her story of life and love in the war is interesting, but she didn't have a great force of personal character and dynamism. She and all the other family members never emerged from their flat stereotypes. I had the feeling that, though the setting was compelling, I'd met them all in sitcoms already.
I felt no drama or tension or suspense for any of the characters. All the plot twists were predictable. Fritzi and Sookie lacked all the complexity and novelty of Idgie and Evelyn, and Sookie's transformation has no "towanda" excitement anywhere. Reading the novel all at once, I felt like I'd eaten way too much sugar and candy and now I was queasy. While I'm sure Flagg was trying to open us to the complexity of women's lives in World War II and make Sookie and Lenore interesting and complicated women, this effort falls flat. It feels like something from another era, when identity was far more rooted in blood relationships, adoption was somehow scandalous, Polish immigrants exotic, and women in men's jobs unconventional. I couldn't believe it was written in 2013. What a disappointment.
The Good Luck Girls of Shipwreck Lane by Kelly Harms, Thomas Dunne Books, 2013, 290 pp.
Time for book number three in the "light summer reading" category. I've been doing some traveling lately, and grabbing these for quick 24-hour reads. This was another one that I flew through when I had some free time on my hands. Again, nothing rich or profound, a story that was fairly predictable in its outcome (although with some nice twists along the way), but entertaining throughout.
The premise of the story is that there are two Janine Browns in Cedar Falls, Iowa. One, Janey, is obsessed with cooking. Every night, she comes home alone and prepares enormous, elaborate recipes, because it is the only thing that gives her joy. She has an elderly aunt, Midge, who urges her to leave her apartment and go out in the world, but she refuses. The other, Nean, is a scrappy former foster kid with nothing, homeless apart from a no-good boyfriend.
A television program is giving away a beautiful, enormous home on the Maine seacoast. Nean enters and then has a dream that the house is hers. She is certain she will win. Aunt Midge enters Janey's name along with her own, in an attempt to secure a new future for them both. When the winner is announced as "Janine Brown of Cedar Falls, Iowa," all three women travel to Maine preparing to start a new life.
As you can predict, what begins in hostility eventually becomes solidarity and even family. There is love to be found along the way for all, and some fun adventures as the story unfolds. The Good Luck Girls of Shipwreck Lane would make a great vacation book, beach book or airplane book. I got an extra kick out of it because I actually know a Janine Brown. Do you know one too? Enjoy the book either way.
Book Review: Fasting, Feasting
Posted April 27, 2015on:
Fasting, Feasting by Anita Desai, Houghton Mifflin Company, 1999, 228 pp.
The title drew me in. (Also, I'll admit, the Booker Prize Finalist sticker on the cover.) The title made me think this book would have some rich theological insight hidden inside, even if it never mentioned God. Fasting and feasting are such rich concepts for contemplation. The book did follow its title with interwoven threads of deprivation and abundance, although it did not capture my heart and mind as much as I had hoped.
The story is told in two parts, from two central characters. The first part takes place in India, and focuses on Uma, the eldest sister of an aspiring middle-class family. Uma is a bit slow-witted and physically clumsy, but she has dreams for her life. However, at every turn, her parents thwart her aspirations and turn her into a servant in the household. Her prospects for marriage crumble, and she is denied even the simplest pleasures. She is not alone. Nearly all the women in the story are bound in service to men, their own dreams unsupported and unsustained.
The second part takes place in the United States, and focuses on Arun, the youngest child and only boy in the family. The family (especially Uma) sacrifices everything so that Arun can succeed, achieve and prosper. While it seems that he has everything, he longs desperately for affection. During his time in the United States, the land of plenty, he sees the elements of physical and emotional deprivation in American family life, even as he himself goes hungry rather than eat meat with the host family.
The novel is beautiful, intricate and run through with allusions to various kinds of fasting and feasting. At times, it felt a bit heavy-handed to me, like it was a morality tale or parable about abundance and deprivation, rather than a novel. Uma felt more like a real character about whom I cared than Arun did. I yearned for redemption in the story, but hunger won out over satisfaction for both Arun and Uma.
This is a book I appreciated more than I enjoyed, recognizing its merits while never quite falling under its spell.

Nationally, the economic statistics continue their post-recession waggle, usually up but often wobbling back a bit on monthly and quarterly reports. Regionally, the states of the South continue to put up stronger numbers, but the overall wobbles still have an effect.
And close to home, in the oil patch of south Louisiana, a plunge in oil prices is hurting the oilfield services industry.
Despite all these cross-currents, there is a steady and positive story out of New Orleans.
True, the national trends still matter, for good and for ill. The day-to-day commuters in the metro area get much cheaper gasoline, even if low oil prices can have an impact on petrochemical manufacturers along the river.
In the city, though, the positives in 2014 were significant.
A wave of new and expanded retail operations and other businesses have added more than 9,000 jobs in the city and boosted sales tax receipts — again. The city estimates a 7 percent increase in 2014 when all the numbers from last year are in.
That's a healthy rate of increase, and among other things, it's provided new revenues for City Hall to add to police salaries and otherwise fund public safety. That's vital to keeping the important tourism business growing and thriving in the city, but it's also a quality-of-life concern for permanent residents.
In addition to retail, the growth in new knowledge businesses continues, with earlier announced companies like GE Capital adding technology jobs in the city. Construction is also a positive for the city, whether in the expansion of the Louis Armstrong International Airport (13,000 construction jobs over several years) or in continuing health care investments in the center of the city.
All these build on previous years, "on a roll," as Mayor Mitch Landrieu says, with New Orleans gaining positive rankings in national assessments of business climate and potential for technology industries.
Even growth has its challenges, and workforce development remains an issue. A $5.8 million grant from the U.S. Department of Labor awarded late last year will help city efforts to expand job opportunities, among other public and private initiatives.
On the ground, literally, a progressive rewriting of the city's old zoning codes will provide for growth and protection of the city's historic character. Expansion of the streetcar system also generates development opportunities along transit routes.
That said, just as the national economy will affect visitors as well as local business conditions, the issues of state support for colleges and universities remains a big question mark. If New Orleans and the larger metropolitan area have a future in high-paying technology industries, the workers require investment in higher quality educational opportunities.
That's why in 2015 we hope that city leaders keep an eye on Baton Rouge, where the Legislature and governor can think about the positive future of the city, or hobble its development by more cuts.

You want to help people get on the road to recovery. We'll give you the keys.
Ursinus students interested in becoming a health professional—be it a doctor, a dentist, a veterinarian, a therapist, or a physician assistant—benefit from an advising program that begins their first week on campus. Early in their careers, students are guided through selecting the right courses, finding the right hands-on experiences, and developing the right skills and resources.
As students prepare their applications, they work closely with their own adviser from the Health Professions Advising Committee, who provides support, feedback, and ultimately a recommendation for students—an increasingly rare benefit to health professions applicants.
We believe that a broad liberal arts education produces the best health professionals—and our graduates, their patients, and the professional schools themselves agree. Therefore, we don't have a "Pre-Med" major. Further, while many students interested in these professions major in Biology or another science, you can major in whatever you want and still successfully pursue a health career.
Student Groups
Medical schools at which recent Ursinus graduates have been accepted include Harvard, Johns Hopkins, Georgetown, Penn State, Jefferson, and Temple, among many others.
Acceptance rates vary from year to year, but on average three-quarters of Ursinus students applying to medical school receive acceptances.

All personnel on the five rigs were safely evacuated prior to the storm's arrival. GlobalSantaFe rigs in the path of Hurricane Katrina included the GSF Development Driller II and GSF High Island VIII, which showed no signs of damage during a preliminary aerial inspection. The GSF Celtic Sea and GSF Development Driller I were listing slightly, and crews and equipment are arriving on location today to assess the condition of the rigs. The GSF Arctic I drifted off its original location and was grounded in shallow waters near the mouth of the Mississippi River. Marine surveyors will be dispatched to determine the condition of the rig. GlobalSantaFe evacuated 972 personnel after suspending operations on 14 rigs in the Gulf of Mexico due to Hurricane Katrina, including eight jackup rigs that were outside the direct path of the storm and the GSF C.R. Luigs drillship, which was moved from Katrina's path in advance of the storm. "Our top priority was to ensure the safety of everyone aboard our vessels, and we're grateful that our personnel were able to secure and safely evacuate our rigs with no injuries or environmental impact," said GlobalSantaFe President and CEO Jon Marshall. "We remain deeply concerned for the well- being of our off-duty personnel and for the families and friends of our co- workers adversely affected by the hurricane." The company began re-manning its rigs this morning to assess their conditions and will provide an update when more information becomes available.

Well not really, thin and shiny; I loved the bulk and matte finish of the dream, it felt less like a toy and more like a tool, and it will probably age better for it. Sense UI; Ok more desktop space nice, but it seems to mess some apps, like ethereal, that one would have been so cool with multitouch Multitouch let you zoom in and out in dolphin browser; ok nice but what else? ChompSMS is not available on the Magic but still is, on the Dream. I think there are more like that. CarMode app; troubles with the bluetooth? i dont care i use the speaker in the car... DOOH! what no speaker on the magic?? really it cant be, i will go read the manual after this post. I think i will have a hard time to make the switch even if even the dream is not what it used to be, before the ROM hijack. probably move the sim back and forth hoping for a root on the dream soon. My wife would be happy to take the magic off my hands If you have suggestions to improve the magic experience for ex-dreamers, post them here i will gladly try and comment

- Once you receive your registration number, you can begin to start the registration process as a patient.
- After you are approved, you will receive your state issued MMJ Card.
As a Caregiver
- A patient registration number is not required to register as a Caregiver.
- You can begin the Caregiver registration process at any time.
- After you complete the Caregiver registration process, you will be given a Caregiver registration number.
- At this point, you are still not a registered Caregiver.
- You will need to give your Caregiver registration number to your 1 patient.
- The patient will then go to the MMJ Online System and add your Caregiver Registration number to designate you as their Caregiver.
- Once this process has completed and been approved, you will receive your state issued Caregiver Registration Card.
This is an extremely simplified outline. You can find all the step by step registration instructions on the Mass DPH website.

Insane Makeup Turns Models Into 2-D Paintings Of Famous Artists
By John Brownlee
Facepainting isn't just for kids anymore, and one talented Russian makeup artist is elevating it to an artform.
When we think of face painting, we usually think of clowns, county fairs and this turtle-loving zombie kid. We certainly tend not to respect it as an art: instead, it's considered a dabbling at best, the sort of medium best left to teenage girls raising money for charity during a parade by painting children's faces.
Editor's Note
Happy (almost) New Year! We're saying good-bye to 2013 by revisiting some of our favorite stories of the year. Enjoy.
But as Russian make-up artist Valeriya Kutsan shows, there's nothing trivial about face painting. The human countenance can be an unparalleled canvas, and accounting for its contours takes great skill. For proof, look no further than Kutsan's latest series, 2D Or Not 2D. Teamed up with photographer Alexander Khoklov and post-processing expert Veronica Ershova, Kutsan has used a breathtaking array of techniques to paint the faces of models to resemble the flat, two-dimensional works of famous 20th-century artists.
One beauty might be caked with so many metallic pastels as to resemble a Basquiat print, while another might be covered in Ben-Day dots after Lichtenstein, or even be fractured into panes like a Mondrian muse. Some models bleed watercolors, others are obscured by pixelation, still others have been turned into paint-splattered newspaper collages. There is even a red-white-and-blue Russian beauty who has seemingly stepped out of Shepard Fairey's hopeful artistic world.
It is truly breathtaking technique, but 2D Or Not 2D isn't Kutsan's first collaboration with Khoklov. Last year, the team paired up for a series of monochrome prints called Weird Beauty in which Kushan coated models' faces with white paint, then creating fiendishly intricate reliefs in black. The designs in this series encompassed everything from QR codes to circuit board designs, Wi-Fi symbols, and corporate logos. Perhaps the most impressive in the bunch is one that features Google's distinctive "G," repeating itself endlessly as it falls into the false horizon of a model's face.
While having a great photographer to take pictures and an expert photo editor to retouch them helps, it's quite clear that most of the skill that brings these models to life lies behind Kutsan's make-up brush.
To see more of Kutsan's incredible work, see her website here.

wikiHow to Make a Digital Counter Circuit
Would your new electronics project benefit from storing values in memory? Using this counter circuit as a basis for memory storage will allow you to store values in your circuit for later use. This circuit works by using SR flip-flops to set the binary value with that number, then using the next SR flip-flop to cancel the previous' output through XOR gates.
1Create 2 buttons labeled increment and reset. Connect these both to an OR gate.
2Create 14 AND gates and 15 RS flip-flops. Connect the increment button to each AND gate.
3Connect the increment button to the S input on the first RS flip-flop. Now match each AND gate output to one S input on each RS flip-flop.
4Connect the reset button to every R input on each RS flip-flop.
5Connect the single OR gate output to the clock input on each RS flip-flop. At this point you should have 14 AND gates with 1 open input, and 15 RS flip-flops with no open inputs, and 2 open outputs.
6Create 14 XOR gates, 4 OR gates, and one numerical/number output. Give each of the 4 OR gates 8 inputs and connect each or gate's output to one of the numerical display inputs.
7With the first SR flip-flop's Q output (not Q`), connect it to one input of the first XOR gate, and one input of the first AND gate. Follow this pattern for each following set of gates.
8For each following RS flip-flops, connect the output to: an input of the previous XOR gate, an input of the next XOR gate, and the input of the next AND gate. Ignore the last gate for now.
9On the last RS flip-flop the only connections it will have is one to the last XOR gate, and one to each of the 4 OR gates.
10Connect each XOR gate to the corresponding OR gates that would create it's number in binary. For example, the 5th XOR gate will connect to OR gate 3 and OR gate 1, resulting in a binary output of 0101.
Binary Values Binary Number 0000 0 0001 1 0010 2 0011 3 0100 4 0101 5 0110 6 0111 7 1000 8 1001 9 1010 10 1011 11 1100 12 1101 13 1110 14 1111 15
11You're done! Every click of the increment button will increase the counter's value by 1 from 0-15(F). The reset button will clear the current value back to 0 allowing you to begin incrementing again.
Community Q&A
Ask a Question
200 characters leftSubmit
- After completing the circuit, you will need to cycle it once to activate all of the RS flip-flops.
- Each input can only accepts 1 wire, but each output can send multiple wires.
- If working with real electronics, remember to be careful!

Knowing the early warning signs of bad debtors is important to the survival of any business that offers credit to its customers.
You should already have analytical measures (financial ratios, poor credit records, etc) in place to recognise bad debtors, but personality characteristics can also put your mind at ease – or give you early warning signs.
The following are questions worth asking about a customer, prior to granting or continuing to extend credit:
Does your customer seem to have a tendency to procrastinate?
Procrastination is a general feature of bad debtors and a worrying sign. These individuals often postpone meetings and take a long time to return calls.
Are there signs that your customer might be in denial regarding their over-indebted financial position?
Bad debtors often persuade themselves and others that the amount of money they owe is minimal, regardless of the size of their debt. Debt in itself is not bad, but hiding from its implications can be catastrophic. Be on the lookout for customers that don't have a plan to manage their debt.
Does your customer avoid taking personal responsibility for their financial situation?
A poor credit history does not necessarily indicate a bad debtor, but responsibility needs to be taken for past mistakes. Bad debtors often provide convincing reasons why it's not their fault they have not been financially successful in the past and have accumulated excessive amounts of debt.
Is your customer administratively weak?
If a business is unable to provide basic information like financial statements, identity documents and business records it's an ominous sign and should not be ignored in your credit assessment.

Wow! Your photography skills are impressive! Keep up the great work!
Awesome shot
I like it but it looks a bit crooked?
This was done before I learned how to correct this in Lightroom.... Im glad you still like.... ))))
Very nice !!!
Nice shot but the picture is tilted to the right. You might want to correct that in post processing. Rotate it counter-clockwise by about 1 degree. It's not much but noticeable.
Awesome night frame!
Great one
for the first time-EXCELLENT!

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Black Rifle Forum' started by mangkukhan, Jan 18, 2010.
just curious what was the ideal twist everyone was hoping for???
I have no interest in spending that much mula on another 5.56 AR.
I'll stick with my Noveske's
The .gov will buy it with your money at the exploded prices forged by the Magpul/Cerbus union.
1 in 7 probably...
1/7 twist is generally considered ideal for heavier combat type weighted loads (62gr-77gr, etc.) BUT since Bushmaster typically uses 1/9 twist in their ARs they probably figured they'd just use the same barrels they had already. Which should have made it cost less, but apparently they didn't think so. Guess they believed people would be dumb enough to over pay for an Adaptive Combat Rifle with a 1/9 twist and a fixed stock. Just plain nutty.
Here's Remington's promotion video...before it gets pulled!
I too was very interested in this when it was the Magpul Masada. Now I can sum up my feelings on it in one word......"Meh!"
I just got back from Shot, and the ACR was the biggest disappointment there. Yes, the design is very intelligent. Yes, it is very modular. However, everything else was bad news.
The Remington version will only be available to military and probably only in select fire.
The Bushmaster version will be the LE and civilian version, and comes with a 1:9 twist M4 (heavy) barrel with no chrome lining. The rep said it does have a "secret coating" in it. I asked if it was a hard coating or a metal treatment like nitriding, and he said he couldn't say, but it was good. I asked, "So it's better than chrome lining, but you can't tell me what it is or why I should believe you?" He just shrugged. Okay. I asked him about the logic of a 1:9" twist, and he just shrugged that one off also. Also, the pricing rumors are correct. The model that everyone will want with the folding stock and railed forend does have an MSRP of over $3000. Finally, they added enough metal up front with the heavy barrel, QD ratchet system, and beefed up forend that it now specs out at 8.25 muzzle heavy pounds.
Rumor at the show was that the MagPul people are pissed off to an epic degree about the whole thing, and that the .308 caliber Masoud will be either produced in house or outside by just about anybody but Remington/Bushmaster. Imagine that. They took a platform with awesome potential and turned it into a white elephant.
Best news I've heard all day!
Yeah, but keep in mind that I didn't hear it from MagPul themselves. They were very tight lipped about the ACR project. It was other large vendors who knew the MagPul people personally who told me that information second hand. I would consider it reliable, but it's not directly from the primary source.
$3061 for the "enhanced" version???
That's what I've been wondering. Most folks have been quite fond of Magpul to at least some degree, but they certainly took a massive hit with this debacle. Why they chose a company that did the same thing to a 308 AR is beyond me. Hell, even if they'd given it to Oly the specs would still suck, but at least they could have done it for under the claimed price point.
That's the thing with the whole ordeal. If they had built it with mo better specs they could have gotten away with a somewhat higher price, or if they'd hit the price point they could have Bushmastered a spec or two. They doubled the price point and Bushmastered the crap out of the specs, and two wrongs don't make a right.
A 308 ACR would be sweet if they could do it properly and actually hit a determined price point.
That's what Bushmaster told me yesterday at SHOT. Dealer price is high enough that the good version can't sell for less than about $2800 on the open market. The "base model" might actually retail for about the same price as a SCAR ($2500 or so), but it won't have a railed forend or folding/adjustable stock. Remington/Bushmaster have lost their minds. Unless they nail a big government contract, they'll wind up with a huge warehouse full of overpriced ACR's within a few months of release.
They must be out of their collective minds.
I'm LEO, so I can offer some perspective there ... not a cop I know can afford something in that price range, and 99% of us are not allowed or don't need select fire ... so there goes the Remington version. And then when you consider BOTH of them, or the ACR in general are unproven, heavy rifles, why would we buy one? A cop doesn't make much, and for half the price of an ACR, the same cop can get a great AR and great optic. The ACR looks like it comes with a set of cheap Magpul BUIS.
I thought the original Masada design didn't have a quad rail forend, but a more standard one you could attach rails as needed to. What happened there, and how did a plastic and alloy rifle somehow manage to end up approaching the weight of my M14?
Wow. The Remington is priced way too high for cops, and the military for general use and issue, and the Bushmaster is heavy and offers stupid things like 1/9 barrels. Plus you pay over 3k for a folding stock version, rails and a nifty flash hider?
What an insult. Shame on Magpul for selling out on their original design to "Freedom Group" or WTF ever they are this year. Somebody up there needs to lay off the crack pipe, and realize they are charging above premium for an unproven, bastardized piston rifle in a market loaded with them, and that the current champ, the AR15 is not going to be even remotely threatened by their product as is. Hell, right now I am not even sure it gives the FN-SCAR or HK-416 much to worry about.
Maybe if that "thing" they call the ACR was anything like Masada Magpul hyped, I would buy one. A 12-1500 dollar, truly adaptable combat rifle would be something to be reckoned with.
I suspect that was what Cerberus was aiming for. My theory is that Cerberus placed the price so high so that they would not compete with their Bushmaster AR offerings. "Shrubhamster" is still an AR company, and I think they deliberately did this because they did not want the ACR diminishing their primary market.
Its a stupid, bad business decision, but I suspect the above (in addition to tooling costs and R&D) had something to do with it.
I was talking with a guy the other day, and he mentioned something along the lines of:
Cerberus/Freedom Group sees the plans and prototype of the Masada, and promptly buys it in order to keep the thing from ever effectively being marketed, therefor protecting the Bushmaster AR line from competition. He felt that the company was probably afraid of a plastic rifle that was cheaper and and more reliable than an AR. No proof the ACR is, but yeah, he tends to play these types of scenarios out for fun. Your post reminded me of that.
Whatever the reason, they are collectively insane.
Hitler just found out about it too.
I doubt that very much.
Cerberus, exists only to make money. Done right, the ACR may have been the new rifle to replace the AR. Being that only bushhampster can make it. It would have sold like hot cakes. Even at 2K for the enhanced, it would sell like hot cakes. Hell I would have money down at my dealer for two before they hit the streets.
They took a good design, and gave it to Bush hampster. That was the problem, this wasn't intentional pricing out of the market to sell AR's this was sheer stupidity.
